Wichita Kan, May IA batting
party marked the third game of the
White Stockholders game here on
Wednesday, in which the locals got
the best end of the deal through bet
ter fielding and won the contest by a
score OF to 4.
1t was up to Bill HOwey to win the
game for the visitors. On Tuesday he
was laid on the icesin the first inning,
home run and four singles being the
collections which the Jobbers made off
his tWisters. But the little fellow
failed again. He did not retrieve his
fortunes, but was batted freely for
ten good ones, one three Dagger
and three of them doubles He hand
ed out three complimentaries, struck
out four men and hit one.
Milton, the star slabbist for the
Jobbers, did no better than HOwey if
all the facts are punched together. He
was hit ten times safely also and three
Of them were doubles. He passed
three and struck out six.
But Milton had fielding support and
dOWey did not Six costly errors
were made by the White Sox, as can
be seen from the fact that Wichita
earned but three of its nine runs.
Quigley, Dunn Cole, Brown and
Henry were the offenders, the latter
three errors, but these also were paid
for at a big price, namely. three runs
for Topeka earned but one of its
tallies
Howey's ascension took place in the
first four rounds. Then he braced and
pitched winning ball, but the game
was gone. Milton was right on his
toes until the seventh inning when he
also exploded, allowing a walk, a
double. and two singles. The Sox got
to his benderinos again in the last two
innings, but not to advantage.
A feature of the game was the
double play in the first round which
was pulled Off from Brown to Dunn

BREEDERS TO SELL.
Fine Stock VIII Be Disposed of Next
Tuesday.

Az important event for Topeka and
eastern Kansas will be the first annual
ShOrthOrn sale to be held by the Shaw
nee Breeders association at the state
fair grounds in Topeka on Tuesday,
May l6, at 1890 p. m. The Shorthorns
are a peerless breed of beef cattle that
have helped to make Kansas famous
as a beef-producing state, and are now
adding annually to her great wealth.
They are the most prominent and best
known cattle in the world and the large
sales in England and America, are not
only important business transactions
but they are society events as we'll.
Kansas breeders have long been in
the habit of sending their pure-bred
ShorthOrns to be sold at the Kansas
City fine stock pavilion in the belief
that they could get a larger crowd of
breeders together and would cOnSe-
quently get better prices than if they
sold elsewhere This should not be the
case To obviate this and to make Of
Topeka a pure-bred sale center for all
classes of registered live stock, the
Shawnee Breeders association has been
organized. Another object sought by
this association is the erection Of
permanent show and sale pavilion on
the state fair grounds at Topeka To
accomplish these objects, the associa-
ton will hold a pure-bred sale of all
classes of live stock either annually or
semi annually as the requirements OF
the breed may demand. The sale OF
the first of the series. It will be fol-
lowed later in the season by another
sale Of Shorthorns and the sales of
other breeds Of cattle, swine and
horses.

the breed. They have been consigned
