EASILY
BEST ByRNsIVILLE

The fans had very few opportuni-
ties to get their anvil chorus work
ing Sunday. On the other hand the
game had more sensational features
than any other during the year.
Moran and Kyle contributed the ap-
plause producing stunts. In the
fifth the first man up for the visit
ors slammed one over second thar
looked perfectly good for single.
Moran on dead run stuck his glove
hand on the grass and smothered it.
The several hundred persons present
did not forget to tell Cousin Bud
that he was the best ever 1t was a
mighty clever bit of fielding. When
the eighth rolled around one man
got to first for the visitors on a pass
and went TO second on an ont. Then
some one whipped a drive straight
over second, which Kyle, to the
amazement of everyone present, went
into the azure depths and pulled
down, then stepped to the bag and
completed double unassisted. ii
was perfectly fitting that Big Ben
should do this as the day was the an
nivesary of his marriage and the
young Mrs. Kyle was in the grand
stand watching her lord and master
do things that made him the idol Of
the assemblagc. That anniversary
we speak Of it one week old. Stealev
and Kyle did the hitting that the
fans delight in, that when a hit
means runs they are forthcoming.
Kyle drove one 10 the road in right
in the sixth inning that nctted him
three bases and easily home run on
level ground. Burnsville could find
Argerbrite for but three runs while
the locals piled up thirteen. Weaver
was utilized by the visiting team and
placed in right and he was directly
responsible for three of the home
teams runs. The entire visiting
outfeld was fierce. In fact. ii
smelled to high heaven. Time af-
ter time did it foozle until the fans
ieered in derision. From the start
it was seen that the locals had a
walkovcr, but nevertheless those
present enjoyed the game to the
limit. That is where you stop. The
game was all right but the return
ing was anything but all right.
Possiblyiin the very near future thr
traction company will be able IL
handle the crowds when the sevef1I
hundred that walk back from every
game get tired going and stay il
town. The car service is fierce ana
that surely IS the truth. Possibly 4
shortage of cars is responsible fol
this and if that is the case the baf
ground should be in or very near tn,
city where such inadequate service
could be avoided.

AMBASSADOR WHITES REPORT.
Delegates at Algeciras Tired of the
Prolonged Debate.

Ambassador White has reported by cable
TO the State Department from Algeciras,
summarizing the recent proceedings at the
session OF the Moroccan conference as they
appeared IN more detail in the press re-
ports. The impression prevails here that
the delegates. or at least a great majority
OF them. are becoming very tired of the
prolonged conference. and are anxious to
reach results. As viewed here the last
French move. as developed through her
ally, Russia. is Frances announcement that
the time has now come TO cease debate of
an academic character and TO boldly meet
the really great questions now before the
conference
IL can be stated that as these two Issues
the International bank and the police. have,
in the opinion OF the officials here, be-
come political instead Of economic. the
American delegates, Mr.. White and Mr..
Gummere will not vote upon them in any
phase. BY their instructions they are OF
course permitted TO discuss these questions
as well IS others. thereby carrying out the
original purpose that they should endeavor

failure OF the conference. But they will

A Word of Cheer.
Secretary Wilson said he merely came to
give word of cheer and to wish God

apparent, he declared, and he could see
how good 1t was. He brought news of the
