Few voters of the county but know
of Lloyd Duke and to know him is to
be his friend. Duke will be better
known after November if the voters
of the county take him at his true
worth and elect him county attorney.

JAP BALL PLAYERS ARE
LOOKED ON As CLASSY
Games in Hawaii Show Chinese
Also Are Adopts at the
American Game

SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 14.-Waseda
team has struck snag in Honolulu.
The collegians were beaten first by
picked up team of Oahu, and then by
the nine of the Chinese Athletic club
Both games were high class, and the
first one went seventeen innings, six
teen without a run for either side. De-
spite the defeats, it is plain the Jap
anese are playing fast game. The
visitors from the east have a strong
battery in Oumra YamaWiki.
Americans who have seen the games
say these two would do credit to any
American college team, and to some
teams of the smaller professional
leagues. In seventeen innings Omura
gave only three bases on balls and
struck out fourteen men. This is pitch
ing with a vengeance.
The men who defeated the Japanese
in the first game have had long expe-
rience and would compare faVorably
with many of the teams in the small
American professional leagues.
Chinese in Honolulu have a pitcher
who compares favorably with the visit
ing Japanese twirler. His name is
Apau, and he has both speed and con-
troll. Up to date the Chinese have taxi
en- more readily to the batting game
than the Japanese. Hong, Chack, En-
Sue and John Lo meet the ball square
ly, and are known throughout Hawaii
as hard hitters. The American national
game is not suffering in the hands
either of the Chinese or Japanese, and
the Orientals occasionally give their
foemen lessons in craftsmanship. Their
coaching is strictly within the rules,
and they play a clean game from start
to finish.

SAVE CUBS COLLECT IN
RED0ND0 DIAMOND FRAY

REDONDO BEACH, Aug. 14.-His-
tory repeated itself today when the
Bears came out of the woods and de-
voured young Gipe and his playmates.
The massacre of the urchin and his
chums took place at the ball park this
afternoon, when the Teddy Bears tore
into the unfortunates and defeated
them by a score of 6 to 8. Gipe was
the last one to be "treed" and fought
them off until the end. The other
victims acted like an old woman fight
ing hornets every time the ball came
in their direction, and this was re-
sponsible for seven errors which in
themselves were sufficient to win any
game Score:

The Vernon game was give ana
take affair." with the aspect of called
no score contest until the ninth division
doomed up and the Angels fell into a
little puddle of the real variety of
baseball luck Bernard flew to center,
but Howard moved a bingle into right
field and converted it into a double.
Dillon flew to left Murphy grounded
to Mohler who tried to have a game OF
diavolo solitaire fashion with the
horsehide and Frank was safe on first
and Howard on third before the Seal
captain had finally decided to put the
ball to its proper use. Perhaps the
Kid was still a little nervous At any
rate when Mailman grounded another
in his direction he duplicated the Jug
Cling act and Howard crossed the pan
in the mixing.
AFTERNOON GAME
When the first four divisions of the
Chutes park aaffir withered away
without a tally the fans expected
repetition of the morning game. But
the fifth and the Seal batsmen were to
things with a double, but Browning
struck out. Witt sent a safe one to
left, but Murphys arm was in fine
trim and McArdle was out at the plate.
Mohler walked and Lewis fell into the
gap with a two-bagger that sent Witt
and his captain over the pan.
When the fans were ready to leave,
and many had already gone, the fun
began in the Angel batting list, and
George Wheeler was the hero to begin
the safe chopping. His single to left
lent new inspiration to the weary and
forlorn Dillonites, and when Daley
walked and Bernard singled to left the
bags were full and the bleachers would
have liked to have been. Towards
connection with the pellet forced out
Wheeler at the home plate and left
the tally sheet with one out and the
bases full. Pop Dillon, fresh from a
dsagreeable confab with the ump,
sent a beauty between third and short
that scored Daley and advanced How
ard to third, Bernard dying on home
from the effects of Bodies peg TO Will
liams. Two out and a man on third,
with one score to tie and the fans
bowling. And then Tommy Tenant
came INTO the comment of the bleach
critics. Murphy was at bat and sent an
easy grOunder to Mohler. The Kid
tossed it over to Tommy and took off
his glove to seek The clubhouse. But
Tommy dropped the ball And How
ard crossed the plate with the tally
that tied the score.
The Angels won the game in the
twelfth. Murphy walked and took sec
ond third on Hallinan's and Delmas'
outs. Bull Thorsen then finished the
mill with a single to center, and one
of the best trays of the season was
over.
The tabulated score of the two Angel
victories:

runner of the Irish-American Athletic
club, was awarded the 600yard record
today at the Irish volunteers games at

letics, cutting one-fifth of a second
from Tommy Burke's figures, which
have stood for fourteen years.
He lowered the 600-yard handicap and
set new figures for the 500 and $50 yards

EUROPEAN SKATING CHAMP
AFTER AMERICAN LAURELS

CHICAGO. Aug. 14.-Having won all
the laurels Europe has to offer In the
line of skating. MAZE Oholn, champion
skater of Sweden for five successive
years and holder of the European
championship in 1907 and 1908, has come
to America to seek new honors. Oholm
has secured employment in Moline ILL.,,
until winter comes and the skating
season begins. He has received invita-
tions from both the Chicago Athletic
and Illinois clubs, but has not decided
with which organization he will af-
filiate.
Another question which is undecided
in Oholms mind is whether to enter
the professional field or remain in the
amatel class. 1t was his purpose in
coming to America to make capital of
the fame he has achieved in Europe.
but the thought that he would be
barred from future contests in Europe
should he give exhibitions in this coun-
try as a professional makes him hesi-
tate to pursue this plan.
