A VOLCANO AFLAME
Earth Trembles Constantly and Kn-

San Francisco, June 25.-The bark
Roderick Dhu brings news from Ha-
waii that Kilauea volcano is more ac-
tive than at any time since the out
break four years ago. Since June 3
smoke and flame have issued from the
crater. From Hilo the sky in the di-
rection of the volcano resembles a
great storm cloud by day and at
night the flaming torch above the era
ter can be seen for many miles by ves-
sells passing the islands. In the vi
cinity of the crater the earth trembles
almost constantly and subterranean
rumbling is heard. 1t is believed a

Some Moral Sanitation

For some time the residents of East
lola have looked with suspicion and
disgust at a certain household. A
man widower, and his daughter,
rented house in respectable part OF
the town and permitted two men and
women to live there with them. After
waiting until fully assured of the
character of the place, the neighbors
lodged complaint against the man
and the East lola policeman last
evening arrested the entire six. Their
hearing me'up in police court this
afternoon, the Icharge being that g
nuisance has been maintained. 1t il
hoped that the whole outfit may be
locked up or driven out.

The zinc. miners took the first three
games away from the gaslighters
at Joplin. The first score was 3 to o;
the second to 6. The way it hap
pened is unpleasant but not wholly
discouraging.
AT Joplin Friday the Miners
walloped the Gaslighters to the tune
of to 2, Smith pitched for lola and
he allowed them but seven safe hits
Joplin made three errors, while lola
made one and got eight hits. Yet Jop-
lin won. The boys say the other fel-
lows were more lucky in getting time
ly hits.
Both teams arrived in lola Sat
urday after travelling nearly all
night The boys say they played all
three games in slippery mud that in
terfered with the game all the time.
Still, it was as fair for one as for the
other.
SATURDAY AND SUNDAYS GAME
After seemingly breaking the hoo.
doc again by shutting out Joplin II to
0 in Saturdays game, lola got back
in the hole Sunday losing a slow
game by the score of 8 to 2. Never
since the season opened has the home
team been able to win before large
crowd.
Kid Forney had been saved for Sun
days game and he was confident he
could win it, but Saturday evening a
telegram from his home stated that his
father, State Senator Forrey was dan
gerously i'll and he had to leave.
Jarvis. who tossed a twelve-inning
game at Joplin, was put in and after
getting away lucky for four innings
he was hit for two runs in the fifth and
for four in the sixth. Then Heniz was
put in and he was very effective,
striking out two thirds of the batters
in the three innings he pitched. Bert
Dunn was very effective for Joplin at
critical times and while lola got IL
safe hits to Joplin's y, they were too
badly scattered to bring in runs. The
game was slow and without ginger on
either side, a most deplorable condi-
tion when it is remembered that the
largest crowd of the season witnessed
the exhibition.
The game by innings was as follows:

Beautiful Yosemite.

The Santa Fe passenger department.
has issued handsome Yosemite fold
er for the season of 1902. The Yose-
mite Valley is reached over the Santa
Fe, by daily stage from Merced, Cali
fornia, which makes the trip in twenty
seven hours, including a night stop.
This route takes the traveller throug
the Merced big trees, and is the cheap
est and quickest way in and out.
Accommodations at the Valley are
under Government control, with good
hotels, camps and trails. Visitors to
the great national conventions at San
Francisco in June and August will
hnd the Yosemite side tour pleasant
one. While not so tremendous and
awe'inspiring as the Grand Canyon
OF Arizona, Yosemite has a beauty all
its own, and il is well worth while.

Base Ball Matter

Base bail Matter
At Nevada, Mo-, Tuesday a meet
ing of the managers of all the clubs
in the Missouri Valley League was
held. Every team was represented
except Chanute.
The meeting ratified the transfer Of
the Cofreyville team and franchise to
Chanute, and that team takes the Cof-
feyyille percentage at the bottom of
the ladder. Manager Carey of JEFF
City having skipped company of the
citizens raised money, elected man
ager and will be given the franchise.
1t was decided that on July 8 every
club must be square in every way with
dollars.
The league seems TO be in good
condition and the prospects bright
that the season will finished. Joplin
has demoralized team and is sore,
claiming that some of the other man
ayers are paying much more than the
S4O0 salary limit agreed upon. This
is probably true, although Nevada,
the leader, is we'll under the limit,
Joplin asked to have the limit raised
to 81 900 a month salary, but nc
seconds were heard.
Springfield, Nevada, Ft. Scott,
Sedalia and JEFF City all feel conf
dent they will win the pennant. Some
body is mistaken.
After a quarrel at Nevada it came
to a show down between Jimmy Dris-
coll and Pop Harris, Driscoll was
released, but seven men walked out
with him, so he was retained and
Harris turned loose. Ft. Scott claims
to have signed him.
Sherman Perry was unconditionally
released by Sedalia, but some reason
lola was not informed of the fact anG
jeff City claims to have got to hin
first.
All the protested games which have
been reported we're thrown off, excep
the one lola protested against Ft
Scott. That was the thirteen inning
game in which Hamilton called Shau
myer out at third when the baseman
dropped the ball. The next halter
got a safe hit. This was in the las
half OF the eleventh inning and IolI
should have won, to 0. As it wa!
Ft. Scott claims the game in the thir
teenth inning. Three league man
ayers we're appointed board to arbi
trate the matter. Scott then protested
game at Sedalia, claiming a hom'
run knocked over the fence was but ,
two-bagger.
Umpires Cusack and Joe Roe wer'
voted out OF office. Bruner was re
tanned, Hamilton is gone, Marcum o
Joplin, an old Lacquer, was elected

mendation, and new man will bC

defeat by losing his head and throw
ing ball to first instead of making
an easy double at second. The um-
pire helped disorganize lola by call
ing home run foul along the first
base safe. Two runs scored on it.

and forgave after the game.

Galbreath's 5 Oil City bunch was only
too easy for the lola team in the open
ing game of the series. One of the
Chanute rooters stated that the first
game might be lost the second Cha
mute would probably win and the third
she would certainly take. So Wood
bury, Chanute's best pitcher, was put
in the first game. He has won his
games from most of the teams in the
league, and his presence in the box
simply meant that Chanute intended
to take the first game, if possible, for
the moral effect On the teams. He
pitched good game, but the first
baseman and catcher juggled the ball
fearfuliy, and other inielders made
errors. lola took an early lead and
never let up.
For lola Heinz pitched good
game. One of Chanute's two runs was
secured because Heinz passed the bat
ter to first on balls. The other was
allowed to score from third on hit
TO Shaumyer, who thought two men
were out and threw to first. He could
have caught the runner at home. Heinz
was somewhat wild, due TO lack of
pitching practice, but the Oil City
team only got six safe hits of him.
lola seems TO have secured a star
catcher, by good luck. When Moore
left Coffeyville a young man was
taken of sprinkling cart and put be-
hind the bat His name is Harvey
Four games he caught and nabbed five
out OF six Of Springfeld's fast base
runners who sought TO steal second
AS lola was weak behind the bat a
ticket was wired Harvey at Chanute
yesterday and he came here and signed
with lola, Galbreath being stuck on
his own catcher and refusing to sign
Harvey.
: He caught star game, and il
is the fourth one he has played this
season. He made Galbreath's star
look like a sick amateur.
Johnson, Iola's old third baseman,
played short for the visitors and play
ed the star game of the bunch. Os-
wald got two two-baggers of Wood
bury, Meek got three safe ones, and
most all Of the boys damned the ball
at will.

MONDAYS GAME.

lola made it two out of three from
Joplin Monday, by winning the third
game of the series from them. II was
the craziest game of the year.
AT the beginning it was decided to
pitch Morgan again, he having prov
ed very effective in the first game. The
plan to pitch Heinz was given up for
the reason that the team is full of
pitchers and Heinz seems to be the
short stop, par excellence. Heinz,
feeling that the change after every
body had been told that he would
pitch and after he had prepared to
pitch. rather looked like a call down
before the crowd, was sore. There
was little jawing in the team and
the game started. In the third inn
ing, neither side having scored previ-
ously, Heinz whipped a hot one to
Pratt at second at a short distance for
a double. 1t was too quick for Pratt
and he let it through. The next ball
was hit to Heinz and he threw it over
first base. Morgan then got an idea
that Heinz was trying TO throw the
game, which was not the case. Nor
gan slammed the ball on the ground
and lei. he diamond. To straiRhten
things out Meek removed Heinz from
the game ana Morgan went back in.
The errors piled up until lola had
nine, and incidentally Joplin had six
runs. Such wild, amateurish, 81 ken
ing base ball is seldom seen.
The slaughter of innocents in the
seventh seemed to foretell sad defeat.
Two men were out and no runs in
sight. Then the Joplin pitcher gave
an lola man a base on balls. The
batters following began hitting safe
ones and when the side was retired
FIVE runs had been added to lola S
score, putting them two in the lead.
Nobody scored after that and lola had
won the gar ;.

punished by the navy department. 1t
seems that the trouble occurred in a
restaurant that is notorious for its
habit Of victimizing and swindling
foreigners. The game is to entertain
foreign customers without giving any
satisfaction beforehand as to what
the cost will be, and then making ex-
orbitant charges. The officers of the
Chicago went to this restaurant and
they kicked at the bill, which was out
rageous. In accordance with the local
understanding in such cases, the by
ISLANDERS and police undertook to back
up the restaurant people and the Chi
cago officers broke some heads with
fists and other weapons that came
most handy. The municipal court I'M
posed heavy fines and sentenced the
officers to imprisonment. The king
did not remit the fines; he only sus-
pended that portion Of the sentence
that provided for Imprisonment. The
restaurant mob and the Venetians gen
orally cared nothing for the remission
of the Imprisonment so long as the
fines and costs were not interfered
with. The navy department Is of opin-
ion that the Chicagos officers were
fully JUSTIFIED in their conduct through
out the whole matter.
