Epr1nEnSlQ at JOplln
Sheep Lyle who worked in the game
+ Yesterday afternoon is an old time ball
player. He played in Topeka on var
ious teams about twelve years ago and
once played with Colorado Springs IN
the old Western association. Perhaps
the best that can be said for his work
yesterday afternoon is the statement
which fell from the lips OF Manager
Quigley of the Leavenworth team after
the game. Quigley said: He is the
best umpire the Leavenworth team has
run UP against since 1 have been with
Leavenworth and 1 would like to see
him have regular job
Turney who plays short for Leaven-
worth is not the Cleveland shortstop
and does not even claim relation to him
which is somewhat remarkab bic. He is a
good hitter and is claimed to be one of
the best sluggers on the Convicts' bat
ting order. He is also a fair shortstop.
Just why Herman Crow, manager of
the Topeka ball team, thought it ad-
visable to assault Umpire Kilduff after
the game yesterday is not evident to
anyone who saw the game kfldun had
several close decisions to pass judgment
upon and In none of these did he show
any particular favoritiSm to either side.
His poor decisions affected both sides
and both teams suffered at different
stages of the game. Even if his decis-
had no right to assault the umpire. Such
an exhibition is no better than the one
made by Jack Holland few weeks ago
and tinges of the Muggsy McGraw or
der. only tits little bit worse. How
ever Herman was hasty in his action
and is now repentant-
AL Rohr in talking of the Topeka
bunch yesterday afternoon after the
game compIimented Topeka on the play
ers who are with the team. with
good organization running the team and
the players which Topeka now has
Wichita would be left at the post. L
would like to have the Topeka team
with good man to manage it and
dare say that Leavenworth in such a
case would be well up in the race"
Yesterdays error by wooley, the lit
tie left fielder of the Leavenworth team,
is the second error of the season for him.
The other error was also made in To-
pelxa when Leavenworth was playing
the opening series of the season.
Wooley has been out of the game for
some time on account of a spiked hand
and has been back in the harness but
about a week. Topeka was after
Wooley early in the spring and Wooley
was anxious to come here. Yesterday
however he said that If the Topeka fans
expected the kind of ball playing and
beefing that they saw yesterday morn
ing he would sooner play with Leaven-
worth.
: Manager Ernest Quigley, the Leav-
enworth manager who also manages
the athletics of St. Marys college,
went up to St. Marys last night to Wis
It until this afternoon with friends
and home folks. Quigley has been
very successful college coach and has
many friends in the Catholic city. 4

Dick Cooley, with his Louisville
Colonies, took a double header from
Columbus yesterday. Cooley has
made a success out of his team since
he reorganized the inf1eld and took

play much better ball than they have
been doing at present. He won a
game against Columbus Tuesday with
home run.
In talking about yesterday after
Moons game Manager Quigley said:

Topeka showed about the greatest
possible reversal of form in the second
game yesterday. This is the most en-
couraging event that has shown itself
on the local baseball horizon for sew
eral days. 1t is to be hoped that the
gait set at that time can be maintain
ed and the team once more get climb
ing towards the top.
Wright and McInnis were released
this morning. Wright failed to show
and was considered an unnecessary
acquisition for the team. With Nc
Innis it is a case of rapid going back.
due to following too fast a pace. Last
season McInnis came here in the pink
of physical condition and pitched a
great game all season. He ranked
sixth in the association pitchers last
season. Last winter a life of idleness,
together with too high manner of
living, put the pitching arm on the
: a
and arouses the sympathy of the fans
who have known what he could do
when he is right. But he has no one
but himself to blame.
Roy Arnold. who a few days ago
was first reported to have been sold to
Hutchinson, will come to Topeka to-
morrow with the Salt Packers and
as he was only loaned to Hutchinson.
Topeka has now but four good
pitchers and they are all good ones.
Jones, Halla, Bunton and Arnold
compose the quartette. These men
will probably be worked In regular
turn from now on.
A deal is now on between the
Leavenworth and Topeka manage
ey, the little left fielder of the Leav-
enworth team. Wooley has always
looked good to Crow, and Crow is now
offering to trade Red Davis and two
hundred dollars for Wooley.
During the games yesterday there
was considerable uneasiness among
the fans and prolonged calls for Red
Davis could be heard frequently. The
management may have been right,
but they evidently did not strike
very popular chord when they placed
Davis under suspension.

FOR FAMINE SUFFERERS
Benefit Entertainment in Linthicum
Hall Last NIGHT

An entertainment for the benefit of the
famine sufferers in Russia was given at
Linthicum Hall in Georgetown last night
by the church workers interested in the
church fund. The program consisted of yo-
cal and instrumental music together with
a series of short talks. illustrated by lam
tern slides, on conditions in Russia by Nine
de Meissner. a native of Georgetown and
widow of one of the secretaries of the
Russian embassy. 1t was an interesting
talk. and while some of the pictures were
faulty owing to bad conditions under which
they were taken, it was quite a unique
series and contained number it would be
hard to duplicate.
Mime. de Meissner told first of the work
of the Red Cross in Russia from its incep-
ton before the days of Florence Nightin-
gale to the recent war with Japan She
had been hospital nurse in several of the
Red Cross hospitals during the Japanese
war, and knew from personal experience
the system and details of the work and
had large number of pictures of hospital
interiors, Red Cross trains and GONZALES
cent homes such as 1t would be- impossible
for an outsider to get.
Many of the pictures dealt with the mail
service in various parts of the empire and
some-with the volunteer postal workers.
society women and others who kept the
post office running during the general strike
There were a number of views of Count
Tolstoi and his family and a unique series
of pictures at the front during the Jap
anese war There was another series taken
on Sakhalin Island, showing the Russian
exiles there, and another of scenes among
the japanese prisoners in the village Of
Medved.
There was music by some of the ladies
Aileen Bell and a violin solo by Miss Ro-
berta Allen.
