TIGERS ANNEX ONE.
Sixteen Thousand People See an to
Victory.

Sixteen Thousand People See an 8 to
Victory.
Chicago, Oct. 13.--Held steady by
the brilliant pitching of Mullin and
led to an aggressive attack on the
Cub stronghold by the great Tyrus
Cobb, the Tigers slugged out an to 3
victory yesterday afternoon in the
presence of $4,000 who had gathered
to witness their third successive down
fall. Had it not been for a costly
and inexcusabie error on the part of
Rossman, the big Tiger first baseman
the Cubs would have been shut out.
Jack Pfeister was in the box for the
Cubs and the Detroit heavy artillery
mauled him to all corners Of the lot,
but for some unknown reason Chance
did not substitute Reulbach until the
Tigers had the game safely slowed
away.
Cobb Comes Into His Own.
Tyrus Cobb, idol of the Detroit en-,
thusiasts, whose playing was a great
disappointment a year ago, came into
his own. He batted like the natural
hitter he is and ran bases like a flash.
His batting average for the day was
500. Out of five times up he hit safe
ly four times. His singing single to
right in the first drove in O'Leary
with the first run of the game
In the fourth he reached first on a
fielder's choice, but in the sixth he
beat out his slow grounder, scoring
Mcintyre. In the eighth his sprintine
ability enabled him to make a double
of hit which with less speedy man
would have been good for only one
base. In the next inning he singled
and he not only stole second but also
pilfered third by narrow margin.
He had no opportunities in the field
to the great regret of his admirers in
the stand. Others. whose work con
tributed materially to the victory
We're O'Leary, Crawford and Rossman
each of whom made two hits, although
Rossman and OLeary were both
charged with errors
To Mullin, however, the Creates
| credit was awarded by the spectators
Even in the fourth inning, when al
three of Chicago's runs were scored
20 never faltered. His nerve remain
ed steady and his arm strong and hi.
| control excellent The only base OF
| balls which he allowed was turned
| into run by Chicago.

A MERRY
FUNCTION

The novel party at the Kilt home
last night was a grand success. 1t
was a complete change from any
thing which had taken place for some
time and merriment reigned supreme
from eight O'Clock until late hour.
With the invitations was the re-
quest to come dressed as little girls,
and this they all did. wearing short
dresses and many of them half
stockings and sun bonnets. Many
carried dolls and Teddy bears and
others wheeled miniature baby car
riages or carried little red in pals
on their arms. OF course the hair
was dressed in styles becoming to the
little miss and in some cases the
was SO. complete that
il seemed as though the deceit in age
appearance was in the usual dress
and not for the temporary backward
flight of Father Time.
Toys were the favors for the even
ing and great was the childish de-
light of the fortunate ones who won
them.
The tables We're set in square
and no china was in evidence. in
carrying out the spirit of the retarded
flight of time. ii was feared that the
children would break good china so
tin plates and spoons We're the dishes
in which the refreshments were
served The places were marked with
large tin cups with portion of a
nursery rhyme on each one from
which the guest had to determine
which was her place.
Miss Alice Smith made the most
perfect gum hen so she was awarded
the first prize, pair of blue silk
stockings. The hens were moulded
at the table, from chewing gum which
was presented to each guest. Leila
Wells won the second prize and re-
ceived pretty picture.
Those present are a unit in de-
claring that they never had such
good time and it surely brought back
recollections of girlhood days.

AN OFFICER

In justice to Assistant Chief Vim
ton of the Grand junction fire de-
partment, The Sentinel wishes to cor
rect some statements which occurred
in the News this morning.
In speaking of the trial of the as
sistant chief, which was held in
Judge Sweney's court recently, the
article stated that he was found gull
ty and was fined SO and costs.
one-legged man over the head with
club. However, the charges were
not that he struck anyone over the
head or even assaulted anyone, but
were for disturbing the peace and
quiet of the neighborhood by unusual
noises.
Why the News should care to SLAM
der an officer who is in the employ of
the city and who has always borne Il
spotless reputation, is hard to see,
unless it is merely nasty little dig
at an opposite administration.
The article went on to say that
Vinton admitted striking the man,
but held that he was justified in do
ing so. Such stretches of the imagi-
nation as this are apt to bring on
slander suits, for even the complain
ing witness does not claim that he
was struck or in any way abused eN-
cept with language.
To top off the article, which was
almost wholly false, it stated that
the costs assessed against him
amounted to 500: but, according to
Judge Sweney's statement, the exact
amount was $24.30. However, eX-
oeption is not taken to this erron-
eous statement. as it is about as
close as they usually get to the truth
and as they only trifie more than
doubled the total it may be over
looked.
