Skipped, But Was Caught.

Walter Hoge, tow-headed lad
about IA years old, escaped from the
Reform School yesterday, but was ap
pretended this morning before he had
travelled ve-y far from the institution
and was taken back. At first the boy
was suspected of being the person who

at Twelfth and State streets, but it is
now believed he had nothing to do
with the burglary.

The company will play in Eugene every

new play which this company will pre-

Thursday night is entitled 'The World

comedy drama in four acts, and never
fails to please.
Beginning this week the price of ad-
mission will be raised to Is and 20
cents, as it is impossible to maintain
this popular stock company at the old
prices owing to the expensive talent
engaged. and the small seating eapaci-
ty Of the theatre. However, this
change is sure to become popu-
lar, as ths Brigham-Cooper Company
has many agreeable surprises for the
patrons Of the Edison in the future.

That closed the tragedy as far as the
run-getting was concerned. The score
was to 8 in favor of Topeka. It was
an unearned game. The big contribu-
tions in the way of errors and dumb
playing, gave the locals the contest.
Ragan sat on the bench yesterday,
while Womble performed at short. But
he did not set fire to the position. In
fact the bfeachers were calling for Ra-
gan before the contest was over. Wom-
BILE made one error, and fought most

neighboring roofs as far as a sight Of
the grounds could be obtained.
Fully 1000 crazy fans remained on the
outside. staring at the locked gates and
and learning what happened inside
from kind persons on the top rows OF
the big stands, who yelled down the
more important plays and the scores.
BY 2 o'clock every inch of vantage

At 2:30 the crush on the field became
so great that the policemen lost con-

and the fans swarmed over the field.
It required an additional detail of police
rushed to the park in patrol wagons to
clear the field, and an hour 5 time to
do 1t.
The game itself was just made for the
big crowd. It was full of hits by the
home fellows and bungles by the hated
enemy.
It was an uphill battle. too, in which
Chances men had to hammer Leon

Reed HIT tie Ban and It Cost a Dollar.


Topeka had no more license to take.
the game than would a team from
some afternoon pink tea party from
the smart set. The representatives Of
the town where they believe in hang
ing the colored population to the
statue of Liberty and making torch
lights Of them had the ehloroform rag
right up to the Cooley squad nose.
Freddie Olmstead was administering
the anesthetic But his team mates
kept sticking bent-pin errors into him
from the rear, with the result that
he had to pull down the gas hood
from the White Sox smelling organ.
Freddie too joined the slap-stickers,
and in a moment his victim had come
to life and had rushed by with the
plum.
f'Up-where the cotton blossoms
grow Forester occupied the pinnacle
Of the squared circle for Topeka. He
pitched good ball, the Midgets getting
but seven hits off his slants. But To-
peka only got five of Olmstead, so
ment.
Topeka took the inside pole right on
the start, getting a run in the first
inning, when Graves was hit on the
bnouluer, cole walked, ana Cooley
lambasted out a single. Springfield
evened up in the third. Cope walked.
Olmstead singled to right. Graves
made a beautiful throw to Andrews
ION the hop" But Jay missed the
angle and the bullet caromed away.
Cope had taken all the turns and
bounced over the rubber safely.
In the fourth Topeka gathered one
more. Andrews doubled. WombIe's
grounder sent him to third. Downs
hit a long fly to right. and Andrews
scored He should have been an easy
out, but Doc Sebeaugh failed to corral
Murray's beautiful throw-in.
