DUG PLAYS HOG
TAKES 4 OUT OF 6 GAMES AND
LEAVES POOR INDIANS TO-
GET EVEN ON RAPAclOUS
GANG FROM ABERDEEN

1t was hard game to lose yes
terday. But 1t was lost, just the
same, by a score OF to 2. Spo-
kane failed to score until the ninth,
when Suess rescued McKune with
aXean hit through the infield, and
Rowan scored another on SWANS
clean hit There followed one Of
the grandest exhibitions of an
overweight fan mob ever seen. 1t
wasn't crazy or anything, just over
come with JOY and shouted and
yelled and screeched. But the In
dians couldn't tie the score.
What looked like a poor deal by
Umpire Frary was pulled off in the
third when Ross slid home and
missed the plate. Cap" Swindells
didn't tag him, but returned the ball
ito the pitcher and began to holler
when Frary called "safe." 1t was
Swindelrs fault. He should have
tagged Ross instead of putting the
ball back into play. Evidently,
though, he expected Frary to in
struct him to tag Ross. Had Frary
done this it would have been clearly
partial to Spokane. Frary saw the
play, but he Is being paid to umpire
and not do brain work for captains.
Harry Rush, the "outcast," who
has been doing sensational pitch
ing, won the victory for Seattle. He
gave the Indians only hits, g.
Dagger by Swindells, passed l and
struckout 5. Jensen, the Indians
star performer, gave hits, 2
Dagger, passed l and struckout 3.
Losing Sundays game by 6 to 5,
as well as yesterdays last chance,
left the Indians with games out of
the 6 played with Seattle. That
leaves Spokane in fifth place and
40 points behind, Butte. However,
the prospect for finishing ahead of
Vancouver is still good

NEWPORT JOBS CALLAHAN

The S. A. A. c. team got some
thing done them yesterday when
they went over into the country
ruled by Newport and battled with
q rural nine The final score was
4 to in favor of the Newports.
"Doc" Callahan, the baby elephant,
was pitching shut-out ball up to the
sixth inning. Then the Newport
captain saw the big fellow try to
field and got next. He ordered his
men to bunt and they did. Now,

against sluggers, but he can't field
ON account of his size. Therefore.
when the bunts drlfted his way, he
fell over his feet trying to field
them. In this manner the Newport
fellows escaped shutout and won.
