GAME WAS SLOW
Exhibition Contest Between To-
peka Clubs Featureless.
Gave All the Fans an Opportuni-
ty for . Sunday Outing.
SCORE WAS KEPT DOWN
The Regulars With Clark Up
Won by Score of 5 to L.
BOles at Third for Yannigans
Shows All Around Capacity.

| The White Sox yesterday afternoon
had but little trouble in winning from
Jack Halla's Yannigans by score of
| b to l. The game was featureleSs
one and was only played because of
the inability to get another game.
However, 1t gave the fans chance to
see all the players in action at the
same time and they were satisfied al
though they saw but poor exhibition
of the game.
Ralph Clark was on the rubber for
the Regulars and had little difficulty in
winning from the Yannigans as he was
not hit with much frequency and was
backed up by, errorless support.
FORESTER did the twirling act for the
Yann1ganS and although but one more
hit was secured from him than from
Clark, his game was lost on account of
four rank errors which were made be-
hind him.
The White Sox proper was composed
or the lineup of the regular team and
is the one which will work all season.
Boles played third for the Yannigans
all around player is not unfounded.
Prather and Kelly of the Midgets
played with the Yannigans and did
fairly Well. Prather is a brother-in-
law of Spencer Arthur Abbott which
probably helped him in his playing.
From players and spectators
standpoint the game was an excep-
tlonaIly slow one. However, the work
VI D. II. LOO SIdSCOn, as umpire,
helped materially to alleviate the slow
ness of the game. His work as far as
voice was concerned reminded one of
Pug Owens while his decisions brought
back memories of the work done by
umpires in the Topeka experimental
station last year.

hibition at Association park Saturday
afternoon the Topeka White Sox had
no difficulty in defeating the Topeka
Midgets. The final score was g to 2.
The pitching of Jones and Halla
was exceptionally fine and the Midgets
found 1t very difficult to connect The
White Sox on the other hand connect
ed at will and had no trouble in win
ming the game.
The first nine men of the White Sox
who faced Pitcher Moore got down on
hits, errors and free passes and all
scored. The first out in this inning
was not made until Jack Henry, the
eleventh man up, famed out of court
esq. From that time on the scoring
continued two or three being annexed
in nearly everyk Instance. g. ~
Only four of the Mfdgets reached
first up to- the ninth inning In this
inning an error by Abbott, a safe hit
by Urather and a poor throw to sec
ond by Jones allowed two runs to sIip
in: The White tSox played errorless
ball up to the ninth inning
The game was featureless except
when Abbott held the ball and tagged

he had singled.

SAVES MUCH LABOR
METHOD OF "FEEDING" MODERN
LOCOMOTIVES.
Matter of Few Minutes Now Where
Formerly Gangs OF Workmen
and Lot of Time Were
Required.

The little details that spell progress
quently the most interesting. AS an
instance, take the Locomotives board
ing house." as some of the men call
the coal and sand chute near every
roundhouse. Twenty years ago it
took big crews of men to supply tina
coal, sand and water-the sustenance
Of an engine. Now two or three men
do all this work of feeding" the en-.
CINE before they go out and do it in
much less time than it used to take.
When an engine is ready to go on
run nowadays it takes only few min
utes to feed" it for the trip. When it
backs off the turntable to the coal
chute switch it is ready for dinner"
In big elevator there are hoppers
full of coal ready to fall into its tank
the moment the hostlers assistant
pulls rope. This coal is lifted fron
coal cars into the hoppers or chutas
by means of an elevator. In the same
place the sand drier has a chute that
is filed with dried sand, used on the
tracks when the engines drivers slip.
While the coal is being dumped into
the tank, the sand drier is filing the
sand box, the sand shooting down
through a long pipe.
In a great many railroad yards the
engines can be coaled, sanded and
watered without moving the engine
from one point. The old-fashioned wa
ter tank has given place to standpipss
that are stationed In convenient
places. An engine has scarcely to be
moved to receive every supply needed
for long trip. In the old days it had
to go first to the coal yards to be
coaled by men with shovels. Then it
hustled off to the sandhouse and men
passed buckets of sand up to man
who stood on the boiler and poured it
into the sandbox. Then the engine
