that visited South SIDE Park yesterday
and tackled the Wilmington bunch and
beat 1t by the narrow margin Of to ?.
1T Is true that the Philles have been
beaten recently by Trl-siate teams but
you know that that one yesterday was a
real game and that the Quaker City lads
played for all they were worth is shown
by the fact that their error column was
blank and that hit as hard as they could
they piled up but eight hits. an equal
number to that made by the local boys.
Wilmington had two new men In line,
Foster, behind the bat and Smith at
third. Both men made good and will
doubtless prove strong additions to the
team. The visitors made three OF thesr
four tallies IN the second inning when a
double by Courtney singles by Grant ana
Doonn. two life hits and Jaclxhtschs bump
by a pitched ball scored three runs. IL
was not until the ninth that the Phiiies
managed TO cross another man over the
pan. Corridor hit for three sacks. and
Gleason singled sending Corridor over
the line.
Wilmington scored its FIRST run in the
sixth on a single by Chappelle and a
swat TO center field fence by sebring for

WITH THE SPORTSMEN
YORK-READING
BUMPED ROSES
On Their First Appearance at
Lancaster Colts" Swept
Everything Before Them

LANCASTER, July 25.-The York base
BAN team made it's first appearance here
yesterday under the name Of the Reading
rri-state team and the way 1t threw it
into the Red Roses made the local fans
dream Of the way the Roses once played
the game.
Eleven hits with total Of fifteen bases
was the result of the damage done by the
sticks Of the Roadlngites and Burke, Lam
casters crack pitcher, was the victim
Of the slaughtering.
The York team presented an exhibition
Of ginger seldom seen on the Rossmere
lot There was simply nothing TO the
game but Reading and when not chatter
ing like a lot Of magpios, the visitors were
busily engaged In piling up runs. The Red
Roses, on the other hand put up a wierd
exhibition and their numerous misplays
aided the visitors in their run-gettlng.
Burke was sent to the mound for the
locals and IL was soon apparent that he
was by no means In form. Bridges, Beard
and Druhot We're the only men unable 10
solve his delivery He was kept in, how
ever. until the end.
Druhot started of for the visitors, but
he lasted only two innings After the
Colts had put four tallies away he was
stabbed and Bridges was trotted out. For
seven innings he kept the Roses shut out
and only twenty-four men faced him.
The locals got their tallies the second
time up. Foster drew a pass, Odell was
hit and Marshall and Downey singled net
result, four runs. Three scattered singles
out OF their sum total was the best that
could be done of Bridges delivery and
nothing occurred I'm the run-gettlng line.
The BerlSs countians started off with FIVE
In the third round, singles by Suoh,
Myers and Herzog, a three-bagger by
Clay and Marshalls error being the pro-
ductivo combination. Another was added
IN the fourth on Fosters error and Her
zog's three-bagger Singles by owens
Clay and Gettnger, and pass to Dun
landed four IN the seventh. In the eighth
Herzog singled and stole and scored when
Downey almost threw the ball out Of the
lot.
Red owens was the star performer Of
the day, cloutlng the ball In lively fashion
and accepting eleven fielding chances. The

Hardinsburg KY, Dec. 0. -(Special)
County Attorney Gus Brown won an
important suit in the Court of Appeals
last week, which decided a new point.
The style of the suit was Breckenridge
county VS.. w. E. Rhodes. Mr.. Rhodes
was allowed $3.50 in the county court
for land taken for new road. Mr..
Brown thought this too much, and ap-
pealed te the circuit court. Judge
Chelf sustained demurrer to the ap-
peal, holding that the county attorney
could not appeal unless the county
Judge first entered an order permitting
an appeal. This ruling the Court of
Appeals reverses, and the case is sent
back to the circuit court for trial on its
merits. This decision will be leading
case on the rights of county attorney
to appeal from the orders and judg-
mcnts of the fiscal and county courts.

DEATH LIST 400
This Is the Latest Estimate on Great
Monongah Disaster.


Monongah, w. Va, Dec. But fif-
ty-three bodies had been recovered
from mines Nos. 6 and of the Fair
mont Coal company when darkness
closed over the little town of Monon-
gah last night. Fifty-six hours had
elapsed since the awful explosion, and
thb majority of the bodies brought to
the surface were in a terrible condi-
ton, necessitating almost immediate
burial. 1t is now believed that the
number of dead will not be over 400.
A thorough investigation was made
by the company Sunday, and it was
discovered that many miners believed
to have been entombed escaped be-
cause they had not gone to work Fri
day, after Thursdays holiday. A score
or more Of these men have reported
70 the officials.
Shortly after o'clock Sunday after
noon fire broke out again in mine No.
s and the rescuers were at once or
dered to the surface. Thousands Of
sightseers from the surrounding towns
had gathered about the openings.
Through megaphones the crowds were
notified of the fire and the danger Of
another explosion, but they refused to
leave and 1t was with great difficulty
that the special police assisted. by
many miners, forced these people to
places OF safety.

BRYCE TO LEAVE
British Ambassador Going to London
Early in New Year.


London, Dec. "a letter has been
posted addressed to James Bryce, Brit
fish ambassador in Washington, re-
questing his presence in London. 1t
is expected that he will come early in
the new year for a consultation with
the government authorities, principal
ly in reference to the relations be-
tween the United States and japan.
It is believed there is little likeli-
hood that he will return to the Wash
ington post. In case he does not, his
successor, it is understood, will be Sir
Henry Howard, present minister to the
Netherlands, stationed at The Hague.
In explanation of this action by the
authorities, It is said that Ambassador
Bryce never contemplated a long resi-
dence in Washington, and named a
year as the possible limit of his sery-
ice. The British authorities, for obvi-
Gus reasons, are extremely anxious to
maintain good relations with the
United States of America and japan,
and If Bryce should insist on retiring
they will send a man of wide diplo-
matte experience to handle the difficult
and delicate situation which might pos
sibly arise.
