''IND|ANS"WON
THE GAME
Local Team Gave Them a Close
Run for the Money Sunday
Afternoon

Yesterday was an ideal day for the
game of baseball between the Bunch
grassers" and the Indians" The
sun was up early and while the day
was clear it was not too warm and the
crowd which came early to the ball
park and the players We're good ma
tured. The game yesterday was the
last of the season for the Spokane
players in this city and they put up
a strong play to win out. The local
team played good ball all around and
proved themselves to be one of the best
amateur teams in the northwest.
Reilly loaned Dammann and Stanley
to the local team and the rest OF the
team supported them in fine shape.
Reilly's team are now in excellent form
to go after the pennans and the team
will be heard from way in the front
rank along before the league season
closes this year. The game was full
Of interest from the start and the IN
dams" were held down to two runs up
to the sixth inning when HOgg made
a three base hit bringing in three runs.
Had 1t not been for this hit the local
team stood a fair show to win out.
They made two more in the seventh
inning but could not do business in the
eighth. The local team made one run
in the sixth. one in the eighth and two
in the ninth, closing the game with a
score of seven to four i'm favor of the
Indians"
Wells at short was exceedingly ac-
tive and Bradbury did more than his
share. Williams proved himself a
wonder at first and showed the "Indi-
ans that ne was there with the goods
at all times. Morrison is strong at
third and Chapman is better at center.
The switch was we'll timed and proper.
Hamblin and Wells in the field didn't
let anything go by within their reach
and showed good training from their
practice.
For the first time the local team
were dressed in their new uniforms
which were furnished by r. c. Beach
The suits are Yale grey with black
belts and black stockings and Boston
Yale grey caps. Across the shirts from
the word Lewiston" is worked II
black. They are certainly the fines
set of uniforms ever brought to tn
city and when the boys are lined up II
the diamond they make fine appear
ance. Captain Reilly and the ''Indi
ans" left this morning for MoscOy
where they will play the U. of I. team
today. Tomorrow they play the "
A. c. at Pullman. then home for
series Of games before the season open
next Tuesday. Before leaving thi
morning Capt. Reilly stated that thei
trip here was more satisfactory an
would long remember the people fo
the kind treatment they had received
Mr.. Reilly says that If he is in tn
game next year that he hopes to max
another visit to Lewiston. He say
that the climate is equal to California
for practice games and all the men al
leaving here in the best of health an
condition.

DRIFT OF OPINION.

Mark Hannas record as cam
paign manager and a money collector is
one that nobody wants to go against
Chicago Chronicle.
ltdoes not require an experienced poll
tician to understand that, even though
Mr.. Hanna continues to say that he is
not a candidate, the Ohio senator is
adopting policy of waiting and watch
ing. 1t is not difficult to be believe fom
Mr.. Hanna's attitude and from the ac-
tions Of his friends that If the anti
Roosevelt sentiment can be made to
grow little stronger, and If anything
in the nature of an open rupture can
be brought about during the present ses-
sion OF congress- Mr. Hanna will be
forced into the contest" 1t is also not
difficult to believe that if Mr.. Hanna is
ever forced into the contest" the Roose-
welt boom will go to pieces and Mark
Hanna will become the republican nomi-
nee for president.-Omaha World-H Her

BALLOON FOR HIGH ATTITUDES
London Maker Designs Graft MAKING
Aerial Navigation Possible at
Height of Twenty Miles.

Eustace Short, a London balloon
maker, has designed craft for making
aerial navigation possible at height
Of is or 20 miles above the earth's sur.
face. 1t is believed nobody ever reached
an altitude Of more than six and a half
miles, while 1917 is the limit reached by
q balloon carrying self-registering in.
struments.
The journey into the air is to be
made without the accompaniment OF
gasping for breath, bleeding at the nose,
and other discomforts. The balloon
car, which is not really a car at all, but
steel ball seven feet in diameter, IL
filled with compressed air. The occu.
pants will be Theoretically sealed inside
the shell.
The ballast will be carried in cone
shaped vessel hung between the ball
and balloon. The steel of the shell will
be sixteenth Of an inch thick. Short
intends the balloon for scientific OBJ
servations at great heights, and asserts
it will be perfectly safe.
