Sensational fielding kept Topeka

BROKE EVEN ON SATURDAY.
Cy Young the Hero of a Sixteen In
ming Battle.

Des Moines- Iowa. June 27.-The
CooleySox broke even with the Champs
in the double header which ended the
six game series between the two teams
Saturday. The first game went to the
Champs by a score of to 0. while
the CooIeysox took the second 4 to 8.
Biersdorfer, the southpaw who has
not made a good showing thus far this
year had the Sox almost at his mercy
in the opener and the six hits scattered
through the game was all the Kansans
could do. RaSty. Wright was cream
for the Chamis, and they took to him
most kindly. Biersdorfer received al
most perfect support from the Champs
whose fielding all through the game
was little short of sensational. Gates
and Colligan led off with a single
apiece in the first inning and though
Gates was forced out at second Me
hoff scored Colligan and Matticks with
triple. .....--
Five runs were cha1ked up for the
Champs in the third. Errors on the
part of Schmidt, Boles and Kerns aided
in the slaughter, and these with Dwy-
er's double. Bader's single and triple
from Fetzer gave the locals their
quintette of t&llies.
Another was added to the list in the
fifth on Dryers single. Thomason's
error and Fetzer's sacrifice fly. Still
another was put on the pile in the
seventh when Dwyer. after singing,
stole second and third and was scored
on a sacrifice grounder.
The Cooleysox best chance for a
score came in the fourth, but brilliant
fielding on the part of Mattick cut off
the run. Boles, the first man up in
the inning, got on the bag by Me
hoffs error but was forced out a mo-
ment later by Thomason's infield
grounder. Landreth, who followed,
singled. and Pennell flew out to Mat
tick Thomason started to score on
Toa than Cfarfnd hack for the Q.
but Mattick was too quick for him
and had the ball there ahead of him.
The other chance to score was in the
eighth when Henry and Schmidt con-
nected for safeties. but Raders' circus
pickup stopped the show.
Biersdorfer was so strong in the first
game that Manager Davis decided to
] send him in again in the second, but

the Sox hoped all over him in the
first inning and the four runs which
they gained in this session were
enough to give them to victory.
The game was called at the end of
the sixth inning to allow the Topekans
to catch a train for Sioux City.
Cy Young's pitching was the feature
of the short battle. Up to the sixth
inning he held the Champs to one lone
hit which was decidedly scratchy. The
ball rolled along the third base line
and Schmidt thinking it was going
foul let it go.
Schmidt started off the second game
right by singing. Boles sacrificed him
and Thomson followed with a single,
scoring the Dutchman. Then Colligan
biffed the pill for I. base, scoring
Thomson and Landreth Reilly sin
gled and stole second and Penneli was
able to cross the rubber on Biersdorf-
er's wild pitch.
This finished the scoring for the Wis
itors. Both Kerns and Landreth got
around to third during the remainder
of the game but both were cut off at
the plate on clever fielding by the
Champs.
Aided by the superb pitching of
Young the Cooleysox handed a row
of goose eggs to the Boosters until the
fifth inning, when Young hit Niehoff
The thirdsacEer stole second and was
sent along when Young walked Bader
and hit Fetzer. He was able to cross
the plate when Boles dropped a throw

Niehoff's home run following Dwy-
er's two sacker- after two men
were down in the sixth gave the
Champs their other two runs and with

victory, but as soon as Bader popped
up, the game was called as per agree

break for the carriage.

Kansas City, Mo, June 27-As a
result of a new live stock schedule
which went into effect on the Frisco
Sunday, Kansas City live stock dealers
think the railroad company is discrim-

transportation commissioner of the
Kansas City Commercial club; w. H.
Weeks, traffic manager of the stock
yards, and a committee from the live

the time they can to Kansas City, and

siderable attention has been attracted
to a car in the Santa Fe yards which
had been fitted up for the smuggling
of Cinnamon across the border. To
all appearances the ear was entirely
filled with baled alfalfa, but an inves-
tigation on the part of Santa Fe Off
cials disclosed the fact that the hay
formed only an outer shell of eleverly
arranged apartments in which it would
have been possible for men to have
lived many days. The spaces between
the side doors of the car were entirely
filed with the bales. On either side
of the portals, however, the apart
ments were constructed. Several days
ago the car was opened in San Mar
cal and found to contain several
Cinnamon. They were taken in charge
by the officers and will be deported-
The investigation was made because it
appeared strange that alfalfa would be
shipped so long a distance that the
freight charges would almost equal it's
value. The car was billed from point
in Old Mexico to Las Vegas. The al
faIfa has been sold to a wholesale To-
cal firm. 1t is not likely its owners will
put in a claim for it.
