The Seance at American League Park
Yesterday afternoon between the Ma
tionals and Athletics was one of the most
exciting affairs of the season. and when
the locals finally won out by the score OF
:, tn 4 the wells of the multitude could
have been heard over in Anacostla. Inc
Nationals secured a good start by making
a run in each of the three first innings. and
to many unsophisticated fans the game
looked like a breeze for them. In al
most a twinkle the Quakers tied up the
score in the fourth inning, and then shot
to the front in the seventh. The Nationals
were game, and digging their toes in the
ground, took the lead in the eighth by
scoring two runs and won out. as the
final turn at the bat.
Johnson on the Mound.
Manager Cantillon had both Charley
Smith and Walter Johnson warm up. but
the former didn't quite please the critical
eye of the astute leader, and he asked
the Pacific coast product if he would so
on the mound. The request was music
to Johnsons ears and he went through
the game in splendid style. his best work
cropping out when the opposition had men
of the best as the errors of omission were
far more costly than those of commission,
but he took up dis burden In his own
copyrighted way and finally was returned
a winner.
Manager Mack trotted out young Schnt-
ger to fool the Nationals with bother
some spit ball. but Lapp's receiving was
so poor that all his good twrinS went
for naught. In the seventh inning Schht-
ger tried to score all the way from flrst
base on Nichols double into left, and the
exertion of the run and slide to the plate
made him sick and he had to retire while
Mcbride was at the bat in the same IN
ming. Manager Mack doubtless thought
ihe was doing shrewd thing in SUBSTITUTE
ing Eddie Plank. but he was like money
from home" to the locals, and they quick
ly batted out victory in the following
inning Plank seemed to lack his Old
time speed and also had poor control. and
il didn't take Messrs. Unglaub. Delehanty,
Clymer and Freeman to discover this fact.
The fielding of both teams was OF the
regulation order. almost all the chances
offered being easy. Clymer and Ganley
pulled off clever catches but the base
running of Ganley. Unglaub and Clymer.

CATHOLIC EDUCATION.
Interesting Addresses Before the cin-

Interesting Addresses Before the cin-
 ctnnafi Convention.
 Cincinnati, July s.--In the Catholic Educational Convention today at the meeting of the Seminary Department, Rev. John Ryan, D. D., of St. Paul, Minn., spoke of the study of Social Problems in the Seminary"
 He advocated that priests be well versed in the social problems of today. He said that while the American clergy will never lose sympathy with the le- gitimate aspirations of the toiling masses, there is a danger that their sympathy will not be eQualed by their exact knowledge.
 At the meeting of the school depart ment, Rev. Bernard O'Reilly of Dayton. O., told of the need of religious men and women as teachers in the Catholic parochial and high schools, and urged parents not to check any signs of de- sire for religious calling in their chil- dren.
 Dr. John E. Griewe of the Ohio Med ical College of the Cincinnati Univer- sity, urged absolute cleanliness of the child. its clothing and the school room as the first principles of good health for the child. He advocated frequent lectures for teachers on the subject of diseases and the prevention of them and said that the school room should have periodical and practical medical inspection,

FRAUDS ARE
 STATEWIDE Hundreds of Negroes
 Will Be, Arrested. ARRESTS IN MANY COUNTIES Scheme Was Smooth and Well Organized. auestions Sold for szs in . Remarkably short Time AfterTbey Had Been Prepared. rreliminary
 Hearing ef Negroes Te-


 The development of yesterday in the teachers. exafnination fraud was the proof of It's prevalence In many parts of the State. The officers of the De- partment of Education believe that be- fore the last chapter is written in this crooked enterprise probably two or three hundred negroes will be in jail.
 The source of the leakage in the ex- animation questions is still a thing of mystery to Hon. Harry c. Gunneis. State Superintendent of Education. who Tuesday ordered the arrest of ten negro men and women on the charge of buying and using or attempting to use questions and answers that had been procured before they were legal ly opened.
 Nevertheless Superintendent Gum nels does not desrair of finally placing the hands of justice on the real and original conspirators. He was engaged in protracted processes yesterday. It is understood that deputies. acting by his suggestion, obtained confessions yesterday which give clue to the principals in this enterprise. There were reports yesterday of more frauds in Perry. Dallas and Lowndes counties. Every section of the State seems to have been infected by agents ly intercepted the bundles of questions and engaged to startling extent in the sale of them to applicants.
 Secretary Fl. J. Willingham, of the State, Board of Examiners, has spent several days in Selma In an effort to run down the guilty parties. Once the rumor was that, Selma was the fountain Of the .cofrupting traffic. No less than thirty arrests were made dur ing the examinations there yesterday. Like numbers were hauled from their seats in. Perry and Lcwndes counties. Reports from other county superinten- dents are expected today and in the fu- ture.
 The rapidity with which the leakage spread and multiplied; is surprising. The belief is that negroes have been at the bottom of the business from the very beginning. The fact that in the brief time in which the questions are prepared by the Board of Examiners printed and sent out to the county superintendents the sale of the ques- tions and answers should have been so widespread proves that there must have been a we1f-organized agency with sub-safesmen to hurry duplicates all over the State.
 The price paid for, the papers. sec ond grade certificates, was said to have been $25. At this -rate the retailers could have materially enriched thefn- selves. It is said there were buyers by the wholesale.
 The ten negroes who were arrested in Montgomery will undergo a pre- liminary examination today at noon before Justice of the Peace M. H. Screws. The result of their trial. with the testimony to be therein adduced will be awaited with considerable in- terest.
