Two Nationals Tally.

After allowing two hits to go to waste
in the second inning. the Nationals got
real busy in the next session. With one
out Milan singled 20 center. Ganley raised
a fly to left center, which Oldring muffed.
Pickering struck out. but Altizer followed
with a single that scored Milan and moved
Ganley TO third. Freeman walked. and
after Street had taken two swlpes at ths
bail Ganley stole home. Altizer reached
third, and Freeman waltzed down to
second.
In the NTH Ganley was safe on an in
field hit. got to third on Pickering's smash
TO left. and counted on Altlzer's slow
bounder
There was no more scoring until the
ninth. when the Athletics suddenly got
busy, Jimmy Collins led off with liner
10 center. Davis skied to second. on Muir
phys safety 10 center Collins made third
and on Smiths single the former Boston
manager tailed. Oldring's hit scored Muir
ply and Smith got to third and Oldrine
10 second on wild pitch. As there was
only one out and a man on third ami
another on second. the crowd was worked
up te a high pitch but Hughes showed
MS real form when he forced CooInbs ard
Bender to lift high infeld flies. LEAVING
TWO nep on the bases and the Nationals

The Washington herald., 1908-05-09

H A camel could have worked mis- way
through the eye of a needle more easily
than Tom Hughes extricated himself from
the ninth inning of yesterdays game.
which resulted in a 9-to-2 victory for the
Nationals over the Athletics.
For eight innings Hughes had given
one Of the grandest pitching exhibitions
of his career. The Athletics were simply
! helpless before his faultless curves, high
speed, and deceiving slow ball. In the
eight innings three hits, which came in
as many innings and one of which was
an infield scratch affair, was all of the
/ damage that Philadelphia was able to do
/ in the line Of hitting. During that time
/ only one visitor had succeeded in getting
as far as third base, and from every
point of view it appeared as though the
Athletics were doomed to a yeneering of
calcimine.
Before the near fatal ninth was COM
pleted, however, Hughes had threatened
the 2500 fans with nervous prostration
I by allowing four clean singles, which,
with a wild pitch thrown in. gave Phila-
delphia two runs. Although he narrowly
escaped being beaten. his performance in
the last inning was even more credttable
than earlier in the game, for. with
man on third. another on second. one run
needed TO score, and only one OUT Long
Tom frightened up, and there was nothing
further doing in the way Of scoring.
Three steal at Once.
Even had the Nationals lost out as a
result Of the late rally by the visitors,
the fans would almost have forgotten the
defeat. for Washington's advantage in the
early innings came as a result of the most
daring piece Of base running ever seen
at the local ball yard. Last week follow
ers of the Athletics went fairly wild when
their favorites won from Washington by
a triple steal. which netted a much de-
sired run The play was described as
one Of the most wonderful feats ever seen
on Philadelphia diamond.
Yesterday it was the Nationals turn TO
execute the steal In the third inning
with Ganley on third. Altizer on second.
and Freeman on first, two out and two
strikes on Street. CanUllon gave the sig
nal for the triple steal, and before the
surprised Athletics knew what had hap
pened, Ganley stole and Altizer and Free
man each moved up a base.
For moment the crowd was stunned
but when the spectators realized what had
happened they went fairly wild, Ganley
being forced TO doff his cap in recognition
Of the cheers that followed the play.
Big Chief Bender pitched good BAH for
the Athletics. but the triple steal was
enough 10 win almost any game. and
after the Nationals had gotten the lead
they played brilliantly With the ex-
ception Of Hughes slip-up on a difficult
chance, the fielding of the home team was

JAPAN'S STRINGENCY
Conditions Prevailing Threaten 10 pis-
 turb European Markets.

Berlin, Feb. 24.-The tightening ol financial conditions in Japan IS re- garded by banks here as likely 10 re- suit in the transfer from London to Tokio of large portion of Japan balances. and to disturb somewhat the European money markets. Ja- pans balances n London are estl- mated at between s6O,OOo,OOo and $75, 900, 900.
 At the Japanese embassy here the news of panicky conditions at osaki' Kyoto and Kobe is discredited, put private advices to German firms trad- ing in the Far East confirm the money scarcity. The recent stringency in the United States is believed to be affect ing Japan. especially as Japanese ex- ports to the United States have fallen off to considerable extent. The prolonged doubts concerning Japan intentions toward the United States Tn the emigration dispute have tended to make European bankers with Japan csc connections withdraw their loans and conduct their business with un- usual caution.

OBITUARY NOTES
Mrs. Helen $. Osborn.

The death occurred yesterday of Helen s. Bradley, the widow of the late Minott E. osborn, at her home on Dwight street. Mrs. Osborn was the only daughter of George H. Bradley, Who was one of the best known men or nls generation in this city, and the daughter-in-law of Minott A. Osborn, who was for many years the editor ana proprietor of the New Haven Register. Her brother, who survives her, is George T. Bradley, of the firm or Benedict & Co.,, wholesale coal dealers. She is also survived by thre children, Minott E., George H., Miss Kate Osborn, two daughters-in- law and two grandchildren, the off spring of her eldest son. She was the slster-in-l law of Colonel Norris c. Os- porn, the editor of the Morning Jour nal-Courier.
 Mrs. Osborn was educated at Miss Edwards famous school, which was located on Elm street, next to the house now occupied by the widow of Joseph B. Sargent, and has made her home in this city ever since. For years she was an active. member of St. Paufs church, where her two sons now are members of the vestry. Hos pitable to an unusual degree her homes. both on Olive street, next to the Osborn homestead, and later on Dwight street, were the scenes of so7 clal interest to an ever increasing number of young people It was in fact her delight in the society of young, people which kept her youthful in her feelings and frightened the practical cares of life. During her recent brief illness. which has result ed fatally, she so persistently fought for her life that the doctors were al- most convinced in spite of themselves that she, would win the victory. For these reasons which so clearly depict her character, she will be mourned by larger circle of friends than is com monly the case.
 The funeral services will take place at St. Paul's church Wednesday aft ernoon at 3 o'clock. Rev pr. Perry will officiate and there will be guar tet to render the music. Benjamin R.

PROF. BOURNE DEAD Yale Professor of History Succumbs After Long t Illness. WAS A NOTED SCHOLAR Looked Upon as an Authority by Con emporaries-Well-knO
 Writer.
AS A NOTED SCHOLAR

The university section of the city was largely surprised yesterday aft ernoon by the tidings of the death of Edward Gaylord Bourne. professor of history at Yale. Although Professor Bourne had been ill for some time, his condition was not believed to be dan { gerous until Sunday evening when it became known that an operation had been performed as a last effort to save his life.
 Professor Bourne was given year 3 leave of absence from Yale. His close attention to his work for the last twelve years has caused his health to fail and he and his friends thought he needed a long rest. Last summer !, he spent in the Adirondacks and in the fall believed himself cured, but took an ocean trip seking to gain further strength before returning to his work. When he came pack to the city it was seen that his improvement had been only temporary, and he gradually failed in health, his death occurring yesterday.
 Edward Gaylord Bourne was born in Str. vile, N r.. June A, 1860. With his bother, Henry E. Bourne, now a professor at the Western Reserve col lege, Int came to Yale and worked his way through, graduating in 1883 near {! the head of his class From 1886 to 1888 he was an instructor in history in Yale going from there to professor ship in history at Adelbert college where he remained until 1895.
 In 1892 he had been given Ph. p. degree by Yale and three years later he was called back to professorship of history. He had become well known among the scholars of history through out the country and accepted the call , here as a more favorable opportunity to continue his work. Until the time of his years leave of absence he taught and wrote uncea singly. He was co- editor of the Yale Review, and of sev- eral series of history books. He wrote a history of Spain in America. which has already come to be regarded as 2 standard work As historical critic especially of American history, he was without a superior
 On July r, 1895, he married Miss Annie Thomson Nettleton of Stock bridge Beside his wife he leaves five children The funeral will he held from his late residence on Mansfield street, but the arrangements have not ben fompleted.

 USE IF CUT|CURA
After Other Treatment Failed
 Eczema in Raw Spot on Baby Boys Face Lasted for Months Cried with Pain when Washed.
ECZEMA WAS CURED AND
 HAS NEVER REAPPEARED

"our baby boy broke out with eczema on bis face when one month old. One place on the side of his face the size of a nickel was raw like beef steak for three months. and he would cry out when 1 bathed the parts that were sore and broken out. I gave him three months treatment from a good doctor, but at the end of that time the child was no better. Then my doctor recommended Cuticura. After using . cake of Cuticura Soap, a third of box of Cuticura Ointment, and half . bottle of Cuticura Resolvent he was well and his face was as smooth as any baby's. He is now two years aid half old and no eczema has reappeared. l am still using the Cuticura Soap; think it is the finest toilet soap I ever used. I keep my little girls hair and face cleansed with it too. l am SO thankful for what Cuticura has done for u1. Mrs. N. l.. Harris, R. F. D. 1, Alton, Kan, May IA and June i2, 'o7."
