SOCIALIST OVERDOSE
BRINGS ON INSANITY

NEW YORK, July 31.-Arthur
Falhaber, the II year old lad who
has caused considerable excite
ment at socialist and suffragette
meetings recently by his impas-
stoned speeches, has been commit
ted to Bellevue hospital to have
his mental condition observed.
In the last few weeks he had be-
come SO enthusiastic over social
istic- doctrines that he was in the
habit Of collecting crowds about
him at all hours of the day and
night, until the neighbors com
planned, and his parents produced
him In court and asked that his
mind be examined by experts.

FINE BUSINESS;
/ TURKS LOSE

Once more the Tigers pounced
on the once terrible Turks over at
Tacoma, took advantage of their
weakness in errors and walked off
with 4 to 8 score victory. Taco
ma had lead of three runs early
In the game because of the Tigers
ability to find Miller for two con-
secutive innings. They had the
best of it till the seventh, when
the Turks dropped on Bakers NECK
and tied the score.
In the eighth inning the winning
run came easy on errors.

that the Cats failed to get their
paws on. 1t was either the win
ming luck or heady placing, for the
Cats were not given an error In
the official score, although nothing
was overlooked in that column for
the Indians. And the luck was
mostly against them at that.
The Indians played better field
ing game. They could at least get
in touch with the ball. and their
superior stick work did the busl-
ness, as it will continue to do the
business as long as they keep 1t
up.
The Cats put some finish on
their fielding when the ball came
into their hands. but in the pinch
es. with hard ones to handle, they
fell some short of brilliancy. On
the other hand. the Indians were
strong on the hard ones, getting
men at first by an eyelash numer
GUS times,
This kind of work pulled them
out of several tight holes, and when
there was no chance to field out of
them Killilay and Spencer did it at
the plate. Having man on third
was not particularly encouraging
for the Cats yesterday. Nine hits
are registered against Jack, but
that Is 10 disgrace the way these
two teams are hitting. Jack was
good all along. The Indians took
10 off the shrewd and speedy Star
kell They pushed Clynes over the
plate In the first with a sacrifice,
a long lofty fly and Spencers hard
smash. That kid. Stub, came to
the front again later with hit
that scored Burnett for the fourth
run after Weed and Clynes had ar.
rived by reason of Burnett's
prowess with the stick. Spencer
got three hits yesterday and there
was no room for argument over
any of them.
1t was Necessary TO play a frac-
ton of the last half OF the ninth.
however, for the Cats had the score
tied down mainly through the sud
denly developed tendency OF Star
kell to hit the ball. But the IN
dams were able to quit with only
one out. Their only weak spot de-
veloped in Claflin's running for
Connors, and Jensen on the coach
line may bave been somewhat re-
sponsible for that
Today may tell the story of the
series, for the teams are neck and
neck, with two games each. The
town has never seen the ball the
Cats and the Indians are putting
up, and the Indians have nothing
to fear from. the rest of the
league, Judging from the showing
they are making against this
weeks proposition.

1t was one of the games where
the winning luck happened for
once to break our way and the In
dams were awake to take advan-
tage of it. The Indians have won
in spite of 1t going the other way,
and probably would have done so
yesterday, for they had speedy
Brinker on third with but one out
when Conner turned a short fly
down into the field off second bit
