PICNIC FOR THE "FANs.
Sundays Game, Sensational in the Elk.
treme, Went to the Maroons.


Three hundred and fifty fans" and
lovers of baseball were in their ele-
ment Sunday afternoon at Finkle's
Park when the Maroons IN a game full
of sensational fielding stunts, defeated
the Des Moines Union by the score OF
l to 0. There was scarcely one of the
nine innings that did not contain its
grand stand feature, in which players
of both teams took a hand. 1t was
baseball all the way thru, and was
probably one of the fastest games of
the season, altho not entirely without
errors. Batters hit the ball forty-nine
times, but the smallness of the score
indicates what the feeders were doing
III the meantime. To d certain extent
it was a pitchers battle, with Green
the best of it. He allowed but three
single safe hits, and was credited with
eight strike outs. Madigan. for Des
Moines. was hit safely four times, and
struck out four. Green. at all times,
had the opposing batters in hand, and
only during one inning. the third, was
there any likelihood of their scoring.
Fast pitching and excellent support
pulled the locals out of the hole with
a man on third and one on second.
Austin's hit won the game and scored
the single run made in the eighth in
ming. Green, first UP, went out to
Sumner at first. Preston followed with
a hit to center which Fahy muffed be-
cause of a stumble, and 4 moment later
stole second. Wilkinson flew out to
center and Austin, with two strikes on
him, hit safe into left field, scoring
Austin. He was caught moment later
attempting to force second. One of
the most sensational plays of the
game was Fahy's one hand catch of
long drive, which he nlisjudged, and
ran under too far, having to go high in
the air for it. While Johnson is not
especially a fielder, the game he put
I'D in the right garden fer the Maroons
was fast and errorless.

IOWA cITYs REST ROOM.
Kings Daughters Maintain One Their
Which is Well Patronized.

winch IS well fdtronlZcQ.
/ The following from the Iowa City
4 Citizen will be of interest just now in
| Marshalltown.
Tuesday, September first marked
the opening Of the new rest rooms of
| the Kings Daughters of Iowa City in
! the opera house block, 1913 East
College street The place was quick
[ ly discovered by large number of
women, who took advantage OF the
comforts afforded thereby.
| After being without a comfortable
and accessible place. Iowa City
was, thru the efforts OF the Kings
| Daughters. enabled to have such a
place, when the womens rest room
was first openea a. /. Of last year, in
the old Newberry wing on North
/ Clinton street, and during the year of
| its existence the room was very largely
patronized and its comforts and privi-
leges appreciated by the hundreds of
women and children who resortel
hither from week to week.
BY the rental of the building to
other parties the Daughters were oblig-
to seek other quarters. and were
fortunate in securing the room vacated
by Hatch's notion store. The room
has been fitted up in a coy and
pleasant manner, and will prove even
more comfortable than the old quarters,
besides being more easily accessible,
the location being one Of the most
central in the city.
The front part of the room Is intend
ed to be used as a general rest room,
and has chairs and other conveniences
for the patrons of the room. In this
room is a large and we'll made table
the gift of J. j. Holtz, the contractor.
A handsome upright piano stands in
one corner, placed there by S. e.
Secoy. who donates the use OF the in
strument OF the room. The room al
the rear is fitted up with chairs, couch,
washtand, etc., and has also baby
carriage and crib. This room, as we'll
as a room in the basement are for use
as toilet rooms. The equipment Of
the rooms is such that every woman
will appreciate them. In charge of
the rooms as matron is Miss M. Coover,
who will devote her time to the work. |
Thru the generosity of the mer-
chants of the city and the self-sacri-
ficing work Of Mrs. S. A. Swisher in |
particular the establishment and con-
tinuance Of the rest room has been |
made possible To the Kings Daugh-
tiers as whole great credit is due in
making possible a place for the women
and little children of the city and coun-
try, including all who are in the city
for a day of shopping. to which they
may feel free to go at any time.
The ladies in charge of the work
have not been forward in asking aid,
but in the rest room is little contri-
button box, which Is always ready to
receive any coins one may wish to
drop therein for the good OF the work.

Australian Tax Experiments,

Australia has been long known as the
home. of sporting suggestions for taxation.
Now that the single tax idea has been
killed by ridicule and other weapons, n
host of little innovations continually crop
up III its stead. One of the latest ideas
is to tax sports of all sorts. Melbourne.
beyond dispute, is one OF the finest sport
ing centers in the world. Most forms of
sport flourish there. from horse racing to
cricket, and it has not been observed that
bad times have any effect at all on the
gates of matches 1t is. therefore, pro-
posed that n penny tax should be levied
on every shilling paid TO see any sporting
show. 1t is calculated that if this were
adopted the revenue would benefit by
t12O,O00. 1t is claimed as virtue OF
the new proposal that it would tax people
only for their pleasures. not at all for
necessities. 1t is only in this country,
where we are more or less free from the
danger Of personal experience of such ifs
cal experiments, that man can thoroughly
enjoy such discussions. Nevertheless,
even here there are few people who have
not their own pet proposal for doing away
with the necessity for the income tax.
The cOmmOneSt, perhaps. is the taxation
Of cats: and the weakness of this and
most other amateur suggestions is that
they would annoy a great many people
and contribute to the exchequcr an
amount that would be almost impercepti-
