Dannie Wright, better known as
Mickey" showed the Beltites few
fancy tricks with the leather sphere
at Wallace park yesterday afternoon
1t was the big twirlers debut in In
diem headgear and the way he handled
himself from the start gave confidence
to the fans. mickey" was himself
and at no time was he up in the all"
or nervous. He pitched hard. steady
ball and won, the score being to l..
Wright halls from Ohio. He has
been playing independent ball this
year and out of 81 games has won 80
He was SECURED to toss 'em for the
Indians and has shown beyond doubt
that he is right" and to say that
Mickey" has "made good" is putting
It mildly.
The Indians played hard ball yes
terday. Nippert was on second again
and played a star game. Nippert
also played a two-piece prank with the
stick and Bert Haas fell into the same
rut a little later on.
The Beltites ragged a little. but
this was expected. They did not
seem to have the ginger although they
made lot of racket on the field.
Both teams scored one run in the
seventh inning. but the Indians had
one in addition, secured in the sixth
inning.
In the sixth inning Wright ground
ed out and Nippert hit for two sacks.
1t was a beautiful bingle to right field
and "Nip" cut around the diamond
like youngster. Mccain was un-
successful with a grounder. but Bert
Haas connected for a double to left
field and nip" scored. Haas died
on the sacks by Wetzel falling with a
grounder.
In the seventh inning the Beltites
tied the score. Ebright waited fol
four, the only four wide ones thrown
by the big Paducah Indian. Ebrighi
stole second and was advanced to
third by Hughes single. Lutshow hi

80 RECoRD ola HER CASE.
Woman Sent From Neosho County to
AsyImIn in 1887 q Stranger.

Asylum in 1887 a Stranger.
Erie. Kan, Nov 19.zThe Record says:
4 peculiar condition has developed in
probate court last week in regard to a
certain insanity case that was tried here
several weeks a-o.
Esther J. Trip of the Shaw neghbor-
hood was adjudged insane on October ?,
and the court made application for her
commitment to the state hospital for
the insane. In reply the state board of
control notified the judge that the
patient could not be received owing to
the crowded condition of all of the state
institutions for the insane, but that a
transfer would be made as soon as some
other patient from this county could be
released This week an order was re-
ceived to send Mrs Trip to Osawa tonne
as the state board had decided to return
Mrs. Maria Wells, inmate of the hos
pital, to NeOsho county to make room for
the new patient. Mrs Maria Wells was
committed to the asylum in 1851 The
lunacy records in the probate court do
not extend back to that date and now
the court has no means of determining
whether she has any relatives or friends
remaining in this county If none are
found the only remaining course is to
keep her at the county farm until ar
engagements can be made for her return to
the asylum Mrs. Wells is characterized
as quiet patient and that is why she
is temporarily returned to make room
for Mrs. Trip

SEES LIQUOR AGENTS.

Leavenworth, Kan, Nov. 19.-The
Times says:
Beginning Sunday, November 25. ac-
cording to the police, all Leavenworth
saloons viii be closed on Sundays and
remain closed under penalty of being
closed permanently by the city. This
IS the gist of Mayor Everhardy's con-
templated order which will be COM
municated to the proprietors Of various
Dars as soon as he decides just what
ne is going to say in his official order
esterday afternoon Mayor Ever
marcy summoned into conference the
representatives of the breweries in this
city and a consultation of some length
was held in the mayors Office. What
the business transacted between the
mayor and the liquor dealers was
could not be learned outside Of the
bare fact that he communicated to
them what his order would be con-
corning Sunday closing.
Saloon Men Not Displeased.
The news that saloons would be
closed on Sunday was circulated slight
" yesterday afternoon, causing much
comment in the circle to which it
naturally tended Generally speaking
the better class Of saloon keepers are
not strongly opposed to Sunday closing.
They are not anxious for it but they
will do that much to meet the senti-
ment of the people half way. The
OI4J expression maze Dy any OF them is
to the effect that they will have no
objection so long as all places where
liquor is sold are closed on Sunday
The action Of the city officials in or
dering the closing of the saloons on
Sunday will be the outcome of a de-,
mand for reform coming from the peo-
pie in general 1t has been frequently
stated that conditions in the city were
getting to be too open and unbridled
so that restraint had to be applied. The
Sunday closing in Difference to the ten
timent Of the people and the segrega-
ton of the Tenderloin elements as a
matter of protection have been the two
reform orders
Question Mayors Sincerity.
In regard to the Tenderloin no
change has been made as yet and there
are a large number who regard the
Sunday closing order as a bluff to
operate for a short time until the pub
lie clamor may subside- 1t is however,
believed that the same big majority of
the people which insisted on Sunday
closing will see that the order is not
made a joke of. There are certain
saloon keepers who have stated that
they regard the order as a joke and
that they did not intend to comply with
it. 1t remains to be seen whether or
not the city officials are in earnest or
whether they are playing blind mans
buff with the people

in LeaVenXVOrth.

Leavenworth. Nov. 19.-The Times says:
Three negro women were arrested about
o clock last night for being caught in

Second and Cherokee streets by Officers
Frank Baskas and Jack Murphy. At the
station the women gave the names of
Ethel Allen, May Jones and Emma Rob
insor.
Seymour. one of the proprietors of the
saloon, gave S bond for the Robinson
woman and a soldier secured the neces-
sary bond for the Allen girl, while the
Jones woman declared that she would
secure the s. before morning.
Chief CranstrOn was at the station
when the women were brought in and he
declared that after this incident he
would have the proprietors or bartenders
of all saloons arrested with the women
If they were caught in the bar-room
Seymour professed ignorance of the re-
cent order of the chief.
