HOW A MUTINY
 AA WAS AVERTED.

Copyright, 1909, by American Press Asso- ciation.l
 We were on our way from San Fran cisco to Boring sea for seals. Never did l sail with such forebodings. It was late in the season, and we had picked up a crew in San Francisco such as no officer would be pleased to sail with even in fair weather. My first mate l trusted implicitly, but my second was new to me, and knew lit tie of his antecedents The men had been spending some time ashore be- tween cruises, frequenting the lowest dives in the city, and when they came aboard they were drunk.
 It was a bleak day that we sailed, and the weather didn't improve on acquaintance. My ship was sailer and required constant handling aloft. A fine mist or seet fell most of the time and the rigging was thick with ice. The consequence was that every time q man was ordered aloft he either went with a growl or refused to go at all My first mate. Whittemore. and I were kept busy most of the time threatening. cursing or even knocking them down with any implement that came handy As for Harden the sec ond mate, if he gave a man an order and it wasn't obeyed he gave it to some one else.
 One day. when we were beating l,itipn rnrtbaact wind and the clouds were splitting snow. while standing on the after deck l saw the men gathering on the forecastle. knew trouble was brewing and. giving Whittemore a meaning look, directed his attention for'ard As for Harden, he was below, though had he been on deck l should not have placed any reliance on him. Next l saw man of the crew of the name of Billings urging his shipmates to follow him aft, starting himself, going few steps and returning for more argument A few followed him on some of these incipient advances, but the bulk of the crew hung back. Finally, after harangue that I could not hear, he made another move, and all but two or three of them went with him.
 It's not a pleasant sight for one man with no support but single comrade out on a blustery ocean to sec n knot of men, doubtless with arms concealed. coming to murder him. made up my mnd to sell my life as dearly as possible and uncovered re- yolyer I had carried ever since setting sail. Whittemore came and stood be- side me.
 The men had reached the compan- ionway when one of them caught sight of something on the port quarter. 9th CTS turned to look, and one by one they stopped. Thinking 1t safe to do so. I turned my own eye in the direc- ton they were looking and saw ship coming athwart our course. It was she that had arrested the men. Those bent on mutiny don't want any wit nesses. They stood peering at her. and as she drew nearer 1t was plain that she had suffered rough usage. Her masts. all except her foremast, were gone, and that had q single sail set. No one was to be distinguished on deck until she came within hailing distance, when through the flying snowflakes one person was discover

WRIGHT BLEW UP.
Five Hits In First Inning Gave
Omaha the Game.
! Harris Relieved Him But Too
Late to Save the Day.
MAHA'SNEW PITCHER
Worked Effectively and Kept
ROurkes in the Lead.
Cooley Made Several Changes in
Local Lineup.

Omaha, Neb-. July 1o.-The Omaha
team again took a fall out of the To-
paka pitching staff, Rasty Wright this
time being the goat. Six runs were
scored off Wright in the first inning
on I'VE hits, three bases on balls,
wild pitch and a passed ball. Wright
was taken out in the first inning and
KID Harris substituted. Harris was a
hard proposition for the Rourkes and
had he started the game a much diff
ferent result might have been seen at
the end Of the game.
Edmundson pitched his first game
for Omaha, and was quite steady
throughout. With six runs lead he
was never in danger. Topeka's only
score came in the fifth. Kunkel
singled, and went to second when Ed
nnundson walked, Fenlon scoring on
Kerns' single to left field. Topeka had
several other chances to score but
failed to produce the necessary hits,
twelve men being left on the bases.
Cooley changed his lineup after the
first inning, Henry going to first and
Abbott to second, Geier resuming his
play in right field.

TAKING A SLUMP,
Topeka Players Averages Show
Effect of Road Games.
A Slight Decrease in Both Bat
ting and Fielding.
NOT A POOR SHOWING
Team Has Held Up Well in Face
of ReVerses.
Crippled Condition of Team
Partly Responsible.

There isn't any great room for re-
joicing in the batting and fielding aver
ages which have been accumulated by
the Topeka players within the past
week. The work of the team on the
road has followed the natural course of
all teams, and it has knocked a few
points off both the hitting and fielding
of the team, considered as a whole.
But still with the present road stretch
of games well under way, there is not
enough decrease in the general average
to entitle the chronic knockers to any
great amount of hilarity and II told
you So sort of stuff. In fact it has
been a remarkably good showing for a
team to make. This too when the line
up was crippled in three or four places.
The infleld was broken up by the alb
sence of Kahl while the outf1eld was
broken up by the necessity of shifting
Geier to KahPs vacant berth and fur
Their weakened by the substitution of
Thomson for Geier and the shifting
of FenIon to the sun field. The batting
department has decreased four points
in strength whites the fielding depart
ment is but two points weaker, not a
bad showing at all.
The hitting of the team has naturally
been impaired with KahPs absence.
Robert who is considered by some an
old war horse has been going great
this spring, both on second and with
the stick, especially the latter. He has
surprised them all, by his timely and
consistent singing of the delivery of
opposing slabsters. The leaders have
fallen down somewhat, Fenlon losing a
few points and Geier slipping grace
fully out of the elite 800 class. There
is yet a long series to be played on the
road, and the team will probably drop
a few more points. But, what of it?
Most any team is bound to lose pres ige
when it hits the road. Look at the
Omaha bunch Winning but three or
four games in over. two weeks on the
road. Now they are in their own back
yard and are making grand clean
ing of the locals. 1t is always that way
in baseball. The road teams drop down
while the home teams pile up the aver
ages, smearing on the additional points
like a rural child smears the fresh
country butter on home made bread.
and corn cakes.
The fielding has dropped back with
the natural road slump In Lincoln the
team shifted from a smooth skinned
diamond to a muddy grassy sward.
The scorekeepers were Ienient, but still
that didn't entirely make UP for the
mistakes that would tend to follow.
Omaha too has a sod diamond, but a
much different one than that of Lin
coin. In a slump of four points there is
nothing to worry about, nor to set the
anvil chorus and soloists on the right
key.
The records for the past week are
summarized below:

Clark and Eells to finish the game.
Clark was hit for four runs and Eells
for two. The poor condition of the
grounds, which were covered with
