OUR SOLDIER BOYS
Art Mccoy Tells of MANNERS at
Fort Riley.

Fort Riley, Kan, Sept. 4.-Co. +,
54th Inf. arrived in camp on Pawnee
Flats sunday morning about 4:30 over
the Union Pacific R. r. and detrained
almost Immediately. They have a
fine camp ground and are equipped
with the latest equipment and have
the Sibly tents, which have a heating
stove in each one. However they
have had no occasion to use a stove
as the weather has been warm. The
camp has shower baths for the Off
GERS and men and the sanitary condi-
tons are as near perfect as can be.
The ground is naturally drained into
the Kansas river which is about Il
mile from the camp. The camp
ground is located on the Pawnee
river, where once stood the town of
Pawnee, which was in its day the
territorial capitol of Kansas, about
fifty years ago The walls of the old
state house still stand, but the roof
and all wooden parts of the building
have been decayed for many years.
The electric line runs from the
Fort to Johnson City, the nearest
town, which is about four miles away.
II is a very nice town, of about 5000
inhabitants, and would compare very
favorably with any Iowa town OF its
size.
The company, after pitching its
tents, spent the rest of Sunday in

neuvers. The first guard mount was

BASE BALL
A GLORIOUS FINISH.

In the farewell game on the home
grounds this season, the Quakers took
Fridays game from the keokuk Red
skins in an exciting thirteen-inning
contest by the score of 6 to 5. The
thousands of fans who remained away
missed the game oIitheir lives. 1t was
full of spectacular stunts, Indifferent
playing, poor umpiring and all the
other elements of the national game.
The Quakers not only celebrated their
farewell appearance in Oskaloosa this
year, but won their only extra inning
contest played on tne home grounds
this season. 1t was great victory
for sure, and when the Quakers eft
for Waterloo ON their last trip of the
season, good wishes and good luck
was accorded them by the Oskaloosa
fans.
While the Quakers did not secure an
earned run, the bad luck which has
been against them all season, turned
their way and they pocketed the glory.
''Heinie" Coates, who has been a
member of the Quaker club since the
Iowa league was born, was sent in by
Manager KenseI to do the twirling' for
the farewell game, and the slim, lank
twirler showed that he was still fast
enough for the Central association
company by winning his second game
of the series. 1t was not only Coates
twirling which won the game, but Tie
great quality of ball put up by the
other members of the Quaker aggrega-
ton They played ball IKE Patter-
sons men did, putting up an errorless
contest
To Mr. Red" Corridor, the little
red-headed third baseman, and Dolly
Wilson, of the Redskins, the Quakers
are much indebted for the game, as
Corridens two bad throws and VIII
sons wild heave from right field gave
Oskaloosa her three scores in the
NINTH tying the score. The visitors
got two of their scores on empire Rey-
nolds poor Judgment when he called
Reichle's foul fly fair in the eight.
After that inning, the Quakers buck
led down and Coates pitched consist
ent ball and several fast plays kept the
Redskins from scoring.
Rabbit" Harris, Oskaloosa's fast
little second sacker, is entitled to
part of the honors, as his timely SIN
gle in the thirteenth brought in Nc
Kinney with the winning run.
Archie Hill, the shortstop Of the
visitors, was fined and put out of the
game by Umpire Reynolds for talking
back to his highness. the ''umps.

KILLED RARE ANIMALS IN T1BETp


Mason Mitchell Sends Specimens to-
tho National History Museum.
Mason Mitchell, actor, rough rider
and friend Of President Roosevelt, has
added to his achievements by EXPLORING
Tibet and killing animals which few
white men have slain, says the New
York Herald.
Those who doubt that there are taxi
ms, gorals sorrows and blue bears Will
absolve Mr.. Mitchell from even a sus-
picion Of nature taking by going to the
American Museum Of Natural History
and looking at the skins, skulls and
horns which have just been received
from Mr.. Mitchell. AS consul In the
Chinese city Of Chungking he was not
far from the Tibetan border
Mr.. Mitchell accompanied his gifts
with scientific data and Is sending pho
tographs showing what the animals
looked like In life.
Takins resemble antelopes, but are
much larger, full-grown specimen
weighing 1000 pounds. The coral is'
Himalayan goat Of hermit proclivi-
ties. The serow Is rare. It is some
| thing like a goat. The skins Of the IT,
betan blue bear and clouded leopard
sent by Mr.. Mitchell are excellent spe-
| cimens
The consul also killed several birds,
| above the clouds, and he writes from
| Tachinglu that when he gets chance
to consult a natural history he will try
! to identify them. II they are slightly
known to 1iaturalists he viii add Them
to the collections in the museum.
Mr.. Mitchell has also given to the
| museum scrolls once owned by band
| Of Tibetan priests, who lost them In
! fighting a punitive expedition sent
against them by the French. The
scrolls are covered with allegorical fig
ures and are written In sanscrit. They
are apparently centuries old.
