HOME RUN WINS
FOR ATHLETICS
ANGELS ARE SHUT OUT BY

LOCALS PLAY GREAT BALL, BUT
FAIL TO TALLY
Series Now One LoVe-Plank Fans
Eight Seraphs, but Not Phila-
deIphian Walks-Great
Infield Play
Athletics, 2; Angels, o


"Why is it" a fan was overheard to
remark yesterday afternoon, as he
walk d down the steps Of the Chutes
park bleachers, that a team when
PLAYED as fast, accurate and snappy
ball as the Angels did this afternoon,
could do no better than land third
place in the Coast league racer
When the Athletics went out in sue
cession, inning after inning with the
local infield working in more brilliant
form than it has for many a moon
past it set a lot of fans thinking. For
five long innings Connie Mack's artists
and Dillon's Seraphs played a goose
egg argument and then a home run
scored two runs, the only ones made
during the contest for the visitors. Not
another player crossed the plate dur
ing the remaining four innings Of play.
Angels on Edge
An explanation of the fans question
is easy. The Angels were on their
metal to show what they really could
do against one of the best and speed
lest mines in the world and they showed
1t. The contest was a pitchers battle,
in which Plank undoubtedly had
slightly the better of the argument and
with both infields working like well
oiled machines.
Time after time both teams managed
to get men as far as second or third
bases with no outs only to have play
ers cut off at the plate or while steal
ing third. For brilliant work the Wis
itors, however take the long end of
the purse. To those who have believed
that lightning like plays, executed
with the rapidity of lightning are an
exception yesterdays contest must
have been a revelation.
Baker at third, Mcbride at short and
Collins at the second station, kept the
enthusiastic crowd of fans in a state
of spellbound admiration at the way
in which aspiring Angels were forced
at second base and the manner in
which Collins would whip the ball
down to Davis at first. 1t was not
in one inning and at rare Intervals
that a seemingly impossible play would
take place, but in almost every frame
and at the slightest opportunity
Thorsen in Form
Thorsen did well on the mound and
allowed never a Philadelphian to walk
a single lap of the journey. Although
the Athletics scored ten hits off his
delivery they came at scattered inter-
walls and the long drive which Davis
hoisted over the fence accounted for
the brace of tallies. Collins connected
into right field which almost cracked
his slugger. The ball bounced, or
something happened, and the speedy
second baseman made three bases on
Ross tumble. Davis saw one of Thor
sens twisters coming right where he
wanted it and the ball scared over
the left field fence.
Although hits were made in both
eighth and ninth innings the to 0
score was never threatened. Score:

! the committee amendments. The
committee amendments to the Payne
bill, with the exception of those af-
fecting tea, coffee, barley and bar
ley malt were adopted in the lump
without revision.
The house adopted the amendment
placing tea in the free list without
restriction. After the committee
amendments had been disposed of
long wrangle ensued as to the or
der in which the amendments to the
lumber schedules should be voted on
The chairman decided to vote on the
amendments in order of the para
graphs affected. The first aye and
nay vote on the amendment eliminat-
ing the hewn timber paragraph, one
of several Representative Tawney will
offer in the lumber schedule with a
view of subsequently putting the ar
ticles on the free list. The Tawney
amendment striking out the para
graph, placing the duty on hewn
lumber was defeated, 1S4 yeas, 1913
noes, indicating that the house will
vote against free lumber.
At the suggestion of Chairman
Payne the action of the house fixing
rate of one per cent ad valorem on
tcrade petroleum and its products was
by unanimous consent reversed and
the articles placed on the free list.
| The Tawney amendment reducing

still more surprised at the large price

the same price.
In his native town, Offenburg, he
told the story of the Inland Empire
in three different schools and at one
of the gatherings the mayor and the
town selectmen were present. A large
number of German farmers have be-
come interested in the advantages of
eastern Washington and informed
Mr.. Sigg of their intentions of COM

On his way east Mr.. Sigg stopped
off a few days in Milwaukee and 9TH

that many farmers in that vicinity
are contemplating settling around

By some mistake on his trip
abroad he lost his trunk, containing

locate it for two months. On recov-
