DOME BUSH WILL GIVE THEM ALL A RACE
IN SEASONS RUN-GETTING COMPETITION

the newcomer in this respect, but will
have To fight IL out for supremacy ON
IN even basis. A great race IL should
prove. ard the best part of I Is the
friendship OF the rivals and the fact
that their mutual hustle Is lot only
gaining fame for themselves. but h
advancing the team In which the
hopes Of both are bound up.
II is hardly expected on the team
that Bush will bat as close TO 300
during the coming season as he did in
1905. Whether this will prove to be
an under estimate or not remains 20
be seen. He is figured al about a
.2T0 hitter by his mates, however, and
this Is a pretty sweet figure for any
American league shor,stop.
Timing his throws just to beat the
runner good, ample step; fielding
everything that his wonderful activity
permits him to reach. getting to frs,
base any old way and then bringing
hcme that run-these are the qualitles
in which Bush 10 sure TO excel. And
don't forget that he's GOT to do all

MORAN WON THIS
'SEE-SAW FIGHT

BOSTON, March 24.--There was
much difference OF opinion over the
result Of the Owen Moran-Tommy
Murphy bout last night at the Armory
A. a.. in which Moran was given the
decision after going IL of the fastest
rounds ever seen in the Hub ring.
Murphy was on springs all the way.
He was so fast for half a dozen rounds
that Moran could not find him TO land
on. while Murphy was peppering him
with straight let's and shooting over
rights. but always careful TO cover up.
AT last Moran began TO set the pace
and tore into Murphy, Who was con.
tinually backing away and was forced

Moran on top of him.

SAN ANTONIO, Tex, March 20
There is no longer the shadow Oh
doubt regarding the location or the
Detroit Baseball clubs 1910 training
camp As has been minated on TINS
page before. San Antonio has made
such a hit with the Detroit players
and management that 10 other place
has a possible chance.
The real cinching OF the San An
tonic popularity occurred in the al
tendance which has been present al
the games which the Tigers have
played during the past week.
For big league ball club TO play 70
a ground-rule crowd is something al
most unheard of in this southern coun'
try where big.league clubs have ac-
quired reputation of playing malt
hearted games for many seasons.
Perhaps the local populace was In
miliar by reputation with the gencr-
ally scrappy play d the Tigers; per
haps II was only because the games
had been well advertised aud the peo-
pie had the baseball habit. AZ any
rate. they have turned out finely and
have made the local stay self-support-
ing by a very neat margin as we'll as
giving the Washington club the larG-
est sum OF money which has rewarded
their efforts in the south FOR many Q
season.
OF course, the Tigers have been do
ing their parts. They have been beat
ing their opponents with regularity
and have played fine ball all the time.
Hughie Jennings coaching Is alone
worth the price of admission.
San Antonio likes the Tigers. The

SMUT EXPLOSION
BURNS THRESHER
Especial correspondence

Adams, Ore, Aug. 10.-Smut was
the cause of an explosion and fire
which destroyed the stationary thresh-
ing outfit, owned by Marion Jack, this
morning. The accident occurred about
II o'clock on a farm, about a mile
south Of TO yn and everything but the
engine was burned.
The machine was insured, but as
the loss is total one, it is not be-
lieysd that the amount of the insur-
snce will be sufficient to cover the
loss.
In the reports received here. there
was no mention OF burning grain and
il is believed that the fire was extin-
guished before it reached the standing
crop or the threshed wheat.

METHODS OF WHITE
SLAVE TRAFFTCERS Barred

Philadelpha.-Tr in white
slaves, which the police believe has
its ramifications in many of the larg-
er cities with agents all over the
country, has been unearthed by the
arrest here of Benjamin Bernstein
and Herman Sayette of New York
and Nathan Miller, a denizen of the
tenderlOin here.
As result of the arrests New
York and Philadelphia police will
join with the police Of other cities
in an effort to suppress the nefarious
dealings.
The arrests followed a story told
by Rose Kessler Of New York, the
daughter of a prosperous manufac-
turer there.
She said she met Bernstein in New
York and became engaged to him, in
company with a girl named Fannie.
The two of them were actually
"hawked" about the tenderloin dis
trict by the three men. Fannie was
sold at one resort, but the Kessler
girl refused because she was too
young. She believes the men have
been selling girls in this manner in
other cities.
The girl declared Bernstein and
Saylor sold her to Miller for $25 in
cash and Miller attempted to sell her
to a keeper OF a resort. When he
failed he made her don a wig and
go on the streets but kept her in sight
all the time. She says he made her
assume the name Of Pauline Williams
Sayette it is alleged, was connected
with the crime in New York and could
not be held by the police here.

RUNS AWAY, ARRESTED
AND MARRIED IN 3 DAYS

Roseburg. Ore.-To run away from
home one day, get arrested $50 miles
from home the next: to escape from
the sheriff the next and to be married
the third day was the experience of
14year-old Maud Koken of Roseburg.
She disappeared from home Friday,
July 30, and was arrested the next
day at The Dalles. There being no
suitable quarters for women in the
Jail there, she was given quarters in
a tent at the sheriff's home to await
the arrival sf the superintendent Of
the Boys and Girls Aid society, to
take charge of her pursuant to a
commitment issued in this city on the
day of her arrest. The sheriff was
called out of town on Sunday and
she made her escape. The officers
conducted a vain search for her She
went directly to La Grande, it ap-
pears, where she joined a man named
Clarke, and was married The girl
had plenty of money when taken into
custody at The Dalles. Clarke is not
known here, but it is reported that
he was formerly with tho Sells-Foto
circus, and that Maud Koken met
him while that show was here, few
months ago.
A letter received by Sheriff Fen
ton from Sheriff Childers of La
Grande says in part:
Maud Koken arrived here August
. and was married to a man named
Clark. l understand the couple are
now working on a farm near this
city. In obtaining a marriage license
they had a hard time getting man
to swear that the girl was Of the age
Of consent They finally got a man
to do this-a stranger giving the name
of Brassey. No one seems to know
him. I think the girls parents have
a very good case of kidnapping because
she is under age"
Whether t3 take legal steps to an
nul the marriage and prosecute
Clarke, or to leave the couple as they
are is the question that is now being
considered by the girls mother and
