UNCLE SAM LOSES
LARGE SUM ON FAIR

WASHINGTON, April 2.-Treasury
officials have reached the conclusion
that the United States received a very
thinly washed gold brick" when it
lent 100000 on the gate receipts Of
the jamestown Exposition. According
to the expert accountants who have
figured up the totals from the chaotic
tumble of figures submitted by the of
fcials of the busted" show, the Ma
tional Treasury now stands to lose a
little more than SS6O,oOO.
Contrary to the general belief, the
Government is not the preferred cred
itor of the Exposition Company. and
cannot realize on the property which
remains in possession of the bankrupt
corporation. Congress lent the money
on the gate receipts, and as the gate
receipts did not bring In enough to
square the Governments account, that
ends it as far as the Government is
concerned.

while her granddaughter was developing
the dreaded psoriasis spots which threat

Abbott reached second in the tenth
and Cole reached third in the eleventh,
but was thrown out at the plate by
Raglan. And in the twelfth E. Olson
reached second, but the necessary hit
never came. Chenault still had little
fooler in his delivery. And twice in
the meantime the Miners hit safe and
had men on bases and once
again Cole dropped fly hit by
the first man up. But still the game
was tied up.
In the thirteenth after BARLEY had
been retired Cole walked, but was
caught trying to steal second. Kahl
was given a walk and went to second
on a passed ball. A singing grounder
between second and short from Davis
stick scored Kahl and the game was
over.
The Miners got close to Selby during
the early stages of the game. In the
first inning Persch led off with triple
and scored on MANNERS grounder be-
tween third and short. Selby started
out bad in the fourth by walking Fill
man. Wanner doubled and the little
Jap scored. Cobb sacrificed Wanner
to third and the latter tailed on
Reeds long fly to Cole.
After the fourth inning Selby set
tied down and was very effective.
Pinch hits were scarce and couldn't
have been delivered with a two by
twelve plank. He pitched good hard
game and deserved to vEn. He famed
eight men in addition to his other Ia
bors during the afternoon.
The game was we'll played. Four
doubles were pulled off and nipped
many possible runs in their conception.
Each side scored twice with double
plays.
Gus Alberts was taken sick during
the early stages of the game and had
10 quit. Tom Doran, the former Wich-
tia catcher took the indicator and gave
fine exhibition of adjudicating.
