twelve years. 1t was In 1893 that Mr..
Mack's loyalty to the party leader re.
ceived Its first and severest test. He
came home from that convention and
went into seclusion for day or two
to think over the situation. Every.

THEY GAVE Us
THE RUSH ACT

Darn Harry Rush! That exiled
Spokane kid was In such condition
yesterday and the Indians couldn't
have found him If he was throwing
balloons at them. They tried hard
for nine innings to secure even one
little safe bingle, but nothing do
ing. Some did get to first base.
One walked and Harry tried to ex-
terminate two by hitting them.
They never got to second.
But despite their inability to hit
Harry, the spirit Of the Indians
saved them from a roasting. They
died game and fighting-for that
one little bingle they didn't get.
And that's the spirit that wins pen
nants. And Seattle had to put in
Spokane boy to do it. AS usual,
the hero had to leave home to win
fame.
Irvine Jensen pitched good
enough for ordinary circumstances.
permitting but six hits, one good
for three sacks and two for two.
He struck out five, walked one and
tried to kill two by hitting them.
While trying to steal second in
the ninth inning Jensen turned his
left ankle and may be laid up.
The only feature of the game out
side of Rush's perfect pitching was
the accurate pegging down to Sec
yond base by Catcher Rogers, who
caught three Seattle men by wide
margins.
Score: Spokane 0. Seattle 4.
At Seattle yesterday Vancouver
shut out Aberdeen to 0. Nordyke
got that one run. Engle gave Aber-
deem four hits, struck out seven
and passed one Vancouver secured
seven hits off Thompson, who
struck out 10 and walked four.

agement. Something doing all the
time without hitch or stop. Last
night, despite a heavy rain, the big
show tent was crowded. An army
Of ushers handled the people with
as much precision as in theater.
The costumes and trappings are
clean and beauaiful. Everything
appears clean, even the clowns, of
which there are a score or more.
Theh trained animals all work with
the hurry up spirit of trainers and
attaches. Even he razorbacks,
usually dirtier than tramps, are
clean and uniformed in natty khaki
suits. The six elephants do their
work remarkably well and maneu.
vre with the precision of ar army
corps.
One of the real thrillers is the
performance of the Seigrists girls,
who do swinging trapeZe stunts
hanging by their teeth. A Jap
walks taut tent line from the
ground to the apex of the big can
vas. A troupe of cowboys and cow
girls do square dance mount

interesting numbers. The circus
