CAR FOR A KING

Many prominent society leaders
abroad own American built cars,
both of the gasoline and electric
type, but no American built car
has heretofore been placed in the
garage Of a royal family. An or
der was recently placed for an
electric by H. r. H. the King OF
Siam.
The body and running gear are
finished in ivory. The top is made
of special leather, enameled in
white. The dash and tenders are
in white patent leather The side
panels and front of the hood are
emblazoned with the crest of the
king of Siam. The car is uphols-
tered in delicate pale green
broadcloth, the royal color of Siam,
with silver gray Persian broad lace
tapestry, puff rolls and silver gray
silk cord and scanning lace. All
metal parts are silver plated and
it has special silver electric lamps
and meter case. The lever handles
are of pearl. The hood has beveled
glass curtain lights at each side
and in the rear.

If someone was making time

wondering who was going crazy,
when right at my feet a molly cot

she was late for a date.
"And say, you've seen a rabbit in
hurry, haven't you? Well, you
know there isn't anything slow
about them when their ears go back
and they begin to hump.
But what got me was that right
behind that rabbit was a great big
fellow just burning up the wind.
Just as he got opposite me he
seemed to be gaining on the cot
tontail, for he shouted, Hey, there,
rabbit, if you can't run, get outen
the path and let someone run as

SEVER INJURED:
PORTLAND WINS

A batting rally by the Colts after
II innings of good, hot ball, that
babe fair to continue the game well
into the twilight, saved the day for
Portland in the twelfth inning yes
terday. Casey's bunch took the
laurels from Aberdeen by a score of
3 to /.
The real battle Of the day started
in the ninth inning, when an UNI
civilized pitch by Most was respon-
sible for tying the score. Siever,
who began pitching for Aberdeen,
sustained a serious injury to his
hand in snatching hot one right
off the bat out of the atmosphere
and was compelled to retire. He
will likely be out of the game for
some little time.
Kinsella's deliveries mystified skhe
Cats most of the time, though ttey

SALT LAKE, Aug. 19.-Taking
as his topic the spread of the di-

which he pronounced to be the
greatest curse that menaces the
nation, Archbishop Glennon of st.
Louis delivered a powerful sermon
yesterday in the Catholic cathedral
Of st. Mary Magdalen. Among
those who listened to the eloquent
prelate was Cardinal Gibbons
Among other things, the preacher
said:
1--WE are going through a crisis.
We have accomplished commercial
prosperity. We are a world power.
But what boots it if we are strong
and powerful abroad, if We are
weak and degenerate at home
How long will it stand, this repub-

Mike Lynch is still trying to save

promised himself should he fail to

fourth straight victory from Van

Hits were frequent, but fielding
was brilliant and errors were
scarce. making the game exceed

couver is charged with but one bad
play.

Christy Mathewson and Fred
Tenney of the Giants have a neat
little thing they work to prevent
the hit and run or to head off an
aspiring base stealer.
With a man on first Mathewson
suddenly whips the ball to Tenney,
who pays no attention to the run
ner, who slides back to the base
to avoid being caught. Instead, Ten
ney returns the ball to BIB Six
at such an angle that Christy,
catching it as he stands with his
heel on the pitchers plate, give
with the ball, and without the loss
of a second, brings his mighty right
arm forward and delivers the ball
to the batter.

Magee is an eastern lad, NO

The Spokane press. [volume] (Spokane, Wash.) 1902-1939, 1909-08-20

The effect is that the runner is
close to the base, while the batter.
unless particularly wide awake, is
caught mapping.
The success of the scheme de-
Ponds entirely upon the accuracy
of Tenney's return throw. AS soon
as Mathewson throws the ball he
returns to his position on the hill,
gets the ball on his right side, and
his swing, as he gives with the ball,
is so natural that he is able to de-
liver it to the plate like lightning.
Just to show how far they carry
things in the majors, it might be
mentioned that Tenney and Matty
practiced this stunt for a month
