ST. Louis, May u.-Lave Cross wild
throw in the first inning, an awakening by
Stone and Hemphin. and some real ball
playing in the SIXTH eighth, and twelfth
innings. gave the Browns a twelve-inning
victory, 8 10 4, over the Nationals. at
Sportsman's Park, this afternoon.
The runs scored by the Nationals were
due to a base on balls. a hit batter. and
al error by Niles in the second session,
and a pardonable misplay by Yeager on
Anderson's grounder in the sixth. Hence
though Glade was nit hard and often, not
a run should have been scored off him.
Almost the same thing may be said Of
Patten and Smith, who pitched for Wash-
iugtOn.
Errors by Altizer gave the Browns "a ma
jority of their runs. The finish OF the
game was brilliant as far as Glade was
concerned. He opened the twelfth inning
by banging a double 70 left field, took
Jhird on Niles infeld single, and scored
on Hemphill's drive through Altizer
Though not at ali a keen game. the

began for Washington, was hit so hard in
the hr5t inning that Cantillou sent HEX
man TO bat fer him in the second session.
and substituted Smith on the slab. Smith
was hit pretty freely. but kept them scat
tered.
As for Glade. he was battered 10 an
alarming extent which the score does
not show. Yet, with perfect support,
not one run would have been scored on
him.
How Runs Were Scored.
The Browns began in the first inning
Niles hit through Altizer. Cross threw
Hemphills bunt wild, Niles going to
third. He scored when Pickering shot a
single past short. Wallace whipped a
high one to right for a base, scoring
Hemphill.
The Senators took them all back and
went the Browns one better in the second.
Anderson, who was in rare form, got
four hits. ripping one over third. Altizer
sacrificed. and Nil walked Glade hit
Schlahy and filed the bags. Heydon hit
10 Niles, who with a double play on his
hands made horrid error, and Altizer
and Mil scored. Hickman. batting for
Patten. belted one hard against the left
field fence and Schlafy came in. Three
runs, all on Niles error and Glade's mis-
take.
The Nationals got their fourth and last
run in the sixth. With Cross down, An
derson bounded one TO Yeager for two
bases. Then Mil and Altizer hit out
scratchy 1ngles. and Anderson scored.
The Browns narrowed the Washington
lead by one run in their half of the sixth
Stone singled TO center and Yeager
brought him home with a ringing double
10 left center.
Thence TO the twelfth no scoring was
done. The making of the winning run in
this inning has already been related.

commissions, he had the confidential
orders of two of the heavy plunging
cliques.
| had just passed my thirty-second
birthday when my kind old dad sud,

Indeed, as | said a bit back, Bob
BFuwnley was by all odds one OF the
handsomest men | have ever seen,
but besides that, he was a sterling
manly, unaffected fellow, as true as
steel, as brave as a lion and the
best comradc friend ever had.
Perhaps II was because his fathers
death had saddled Bob's youth with
the heavy responsibilities of husband
ing and directing his family's slim
finances that he took to business as a
swallow to the air. We entered the
Office Of Randolph g. Randolph on the
same day, and on its anniversary, a
year later, my father summoned us
into his Office for a sort of taly.up
talk. Neither of us quite knew what
was coming, and we thrilled with
pleasure when he said:
Jim. you and Bob have fairly out
done my expectations | have had my
eye on both of you and | want you
TO know that the kind OF industry and
business intelligence you have shown
here would have won you recognition
in any banking house on the street.
I want You both in the firm-Jim to
learn his way round so he can step
into my shoes; you. Bob. to take one
of the firms seats on the stock ex-
change"
Bob's face went red and then pale
with happiness as he reached for my
fathers hand.
I'm very grateful to you. sir. far
more so than words can say. but |
want to talk this proposition of yours
over with Jim here first. He knows
me better than anyone else in the
world, and I've some ideas Id like to

father.

He laughed, and laughed, too. Bob
was looked upon by all his friends as
bad case of woman-shy. No woman,
young or old, who had in any way
crossed Bob's orbit but had felt that
fascination, delicious to all women, in

Washington, June 5.-One
hundred armed Confederate vet
Grams from Tennessee, carrying
the Stars and Bars, were Tues
day denied admission to the
United States Capitol until af
ter they had lowered their flag
and disarmed.
The old soldiers came to
Washington from the Richmond
reunion, and, after visiting the
White House, marched down
Pennsylvania avenue to the
Capitol.
The Capitol police informed
them that they would be allow
ed admission to the Capitol on
ly as private citizens and not as
an organized body.
Congressman John Wesley,
Games. of Tennessee, who &C
companied the veterans, enter
ed protest.
Gaines Tells How.
Speaking of the incident
which occurred yesterday when
Confederate veterans from the
Richmond reunion we're barred
from entrance to the National
capitol until they had lowered
the coloTs of the Lost Cause"
and given up their arms, Rep
resentative John Wesley Gaines,
of Tennessee, displayed the liv-
elisst indignation.
He said that when the column
of Jonfederates reached the en-.
trance to the grounds on B
street, three men, who appeared
to be officers, were guarding
the entrance.
Il went some thirty feet to
the 'front.'" said Mr.. Officer, 1
am Mr.. Gaines, of Tennessee.
These veterans have the usual
military permit
INSTANTLY the oldest of the
three men said: They have no
permit, sir, to come in here.
They have got to get that from
the Vice President and the
Speaker OF the House
"Iinstantly turned around, re-
alizing that there was no Speak.
er of the House and will not be
until December, aud if there
were that l didn't have time
get it, aud said to Captain Ha-
ger: They won't let you, gen.
tlemen. in with arms or in mar
ching order. just lay your arms
down.
Captain Haeer gave the
order Immediately, which was
obeye d at once without the
slig htest murmur, that l heard,
from anyone, EaItbough it its
stated they objected to doing so.
1T was evidently prearrean-
ged that they should be stop
ped at the limits of the Capitol
grounds by these three men,"
Nearly all of the Confederate
veterans who yesterday arrived
in Washington from Richmond,
Va, where they attended their
annual Ieuion, left the city to-
dav for their homes.

as bottle Of brown fluid I beheld last
summer was different from beer.
"a man with q motorcycle stopped
at a mountain inn where l was lunch

from a sunny shelf bottle hung with
cobwebs. He busted it and set before
the cyclist with a flourish.

'The cyclist opened the bottle,
pourned a little into a glass and
frowned.
"Landlord' he said, this is very

'The landlord lifted the glass and
looked at it. He tilted it from side
to side. 1t was so thick and muddy
that it would scarcely spill.
"Tt's the thunder he muttered.

"'Well, thunder or no thunder. I
