MADE TRIPLE PLAY
SENSATIONAL PASSAGE IN BASE.
BALL HISTORY.
You May Have Other Ideas, But All
Will Agree That the Incidents De-
scrlbed Must Have Been
Worth Seeing.

The most sensational play ever
made? Every fan will give different
answer to this question. Some will
say that Chase made it when he saved
game by racing into the middle of
the diamond on pop fly, reaching the
ball when it was only few inches
from the grass. Ed. Walsh, the Chi
cago White Sox pitcher, thinks 1t was
made at Detroit two years ago.
1t happened in the game in which
Walsh broke the Detroit hoodoo. The
Tigers had beaten Walsh every time
he faced them. They regarded him
as their lawful prey. The game was
played in Detroit, and Mullin, who
started the season with II straight vic
tories for the Tigers. was slated to
pitch against Walsh.
Early in the contest George Davis,
the veteran shortstop of the Chicago
club, secured the only hit made of
Mullin, and it was enough to win the
game. The ball, driven down the first
base line into right field, struck fire
hose lying in the grass and bounded
into the bleachers for home run.
After that Mullin was invincible.
Toward the end Of the game De-
troit opened with the usual rally.
Rossman, Detroit's first baseman, lead
Ing off in the last inning, smashed the
ball against the fence for a clean
triple. Dutch" Schaefer drew a base
on balls. Schmidt, next at bat, gave
the hit-and-run sign and, with both
runners in motion, hit hard bounder
down toward third base, where Tan.
nehtll OF Chicago was playing. Tan
nehill made perfect scoop and threw
the ball te the plate, 20 feet ahead Of
Rossman, who, seeing that he was
caught, doubled back on the line,
hoping to dodge the tag long enough
to allow Schaeser to reach third.
Sullivan raced down the line with
the ball, driving Rossman before him.
Rossman slipped and fell close to third
base and just as Sullivan tagged him
for the first out Schaefer slid to third.
In the meantime Schmidt, a slow run
ner because of an injury to his ankle,
had rounded first base and was we'll
on his way to second Sullivan
Strengthened up and whipped the ball
to Robe, who was covering second
base and calling for the throw.
AS Schmidt slid Robes arm came
down with a thuEp and Schmidt made
the second out The instant Sullivan
threw the ball Schaefer was on his
feet and dashing home from third
base. The plate had been left unpro.
tected; Sullivan was down near third
base. Walsh, the pitcher, yelled for
the ball and raced Schaefer to the
rubber, closely followed by George
Davis. The two runners collided in
front of the plate.
Walsh was stunned and Schaefer
was thrown ten feet from the plate,
alighting on his shoulders. Davis, who
arrived about the same time. took the
throw and dropped the ball on the
struggling Tiger, completing the third
out and the most sensational triple
play ever made in the big league

His Last REQUEST.

Charles Dickens used to relate an
anecdote of the last moments of Faun.
tleroy, the great banker, hanged for
forgery in 1924. His elegant dinners
had always been followed by some re.
markable and matchless coracao, the
source of which he kept a deep secret
Three of his boon companions had
an interview with him in the con.
demned cell the day before his exc.
cution. They were about to retire.
when the most impressive of the
three stepped back, and said: "Faun.
tleroy, you stand on the verge of the
grave; remember the text, my dear
man, that we brought nothing into
this world, and it is certain we can
take nothing out Have you any objec.
ton, therefore. to tell me now, as a
friend. where you got that curacao?"

Portuguese Conspiracy.

The murder at Cascaes of a man
engaged in stealing cartridges from
the Lisbon custom house has led to
the discovery Of vast conspiracy to
overthrow existing institutions in
Portugal. A number of secret clubs
are said to be implicated, and quaint
ties of masks. long cloaks, and dis.
guises, as we'll as explosives, daggers.
and other arms, have been seized.
Several arrests have been made, and
some of the prisoners have made sig
nificant confessions. In the course of
their investigations the police learned
that the murdered man and others be-
longed to the Republican clubs, which
are divided into secret societies for
the purpose of overthrowing existing
institutions.

King cheerily- He had grasped the

them for ten or twelve minutes. She
! peered anxiously ahead, looking for
signs of the barge dock, which lay
somewhere along this section OF the
city wall
At last the sound Of rapidly work
ing rOwlocks came to the girls ears.
They're after u.s." grated Truxton
in desperation. They've got word to
friends one way or another By Jove.
I'm nearly tagged too / can't pull

The side of the boat cardmed of a
solid object in the water. almost spill

1.-The docks~ she whispered. I'VE

find your way in among the coal
barges?"
He padded along slowly, feeling his
way, scraping alongside the big barges
which delivered coal from the distant
mines At last he found an opening
and pushed through. A moment later
they were riding under the stern Of a
broad cargOless barge, plumb up
against the water tapped piles Of the
dock
Standing in the bow OF the boat he
managed to pull himself up over the
slippery edge. 1t was the work Of a
second to draw her up after him. He
gave the boat a mighty shove, sending
1t out into the stream once more.
In few minutes loud curses came
from the river. proclaiming the fact
that the pursuers had found the empty
boat. Afterward they were to learn
that Newport's shouts had brought a
boat load Of men from the opposite
bank, headed by the innkeeper, In
whose place Lorraine was to have en-
countered Marlanx later on, if plans
had not miscarried
By this time King had located the
open space which undoubtedly afford
ed room for the transfer Of cargoes
from the dock TO the company's yards
inside the walls. Without hesitation
he drew her after him up this wide,
sinister roadway.
The pursuers were trying for a land

struck Truxton as queer that thess
men were not afraid OF alarming the
watchmen on the docks or the man at

him that there would be no one there /

Chicago, IL, July 21-AIrs. Alexander
C. Young, shot by Charles Rigdon last
Friday afternoon, just before Rigdon
met his death by a bullet wound, has

it is likely the wound will prove fatal.
1t is learned that Rigdon was y fire.
Guent visitor at the home of Mrs. Young
when the latter lived IN a fashionable
section in Washington city a little more
than year ago
After living there for about three
months, Mrs. Young suddenly disap
peared after an exciting episode in which
Rigdon figured. RigdoIf arrived at the
house one night, it Is alleged, and found
the place dark. There was no response
to his repeated rings and he smashed
all the windows within reach Of his cane
Region disappeared before the police ar
rived.
Soon afterwaTd, Mrs Young abandoned
the house, leaving her furniture. She
wrote TO one neighbor that she had
bought a house in a Maryland suburb.
Later she wrote from California. Rig
don and Mrs. Young are alleged To have
figured in another exciting incident. One
night he was walking along the street
with Mrs. Young when they met a ne
gro, who Rigdon thought insulted Mrs.
Young. He shot the negro, who was not
badly hurt. Rigdon was not arrested

REVISIONS FOR
AUTO ORDINANCE
Motor Cycle Officer Munroe
Says New Regulations
Are Needed.

Automobile policeman Munroe, the
man who throws a scare into the JOY
riders whenever they attempt to frac-
ture the speed ordinance, has two sug-
gestions to make for the revision of
the present ordinance applying to auto
mobile and motorcycles Policeman
MunrOe says that there should be
clause in the ordinance prohibiting the
motorcyclists from cutting out the muf-
fers on their machines and making az
much noise as a small sized Gattling
gun while running through the down
town streets. This is not only an un-
necessary annoyance, he says, but IS
also a menace TO persons driving
horses which are liable to become
frightened at the popping of the mo-
torcycles.
The other clause which the motor
cycle officer thinks should be incor-
porated in the statutes governing the
use of autos in the city limits, is that
the users of the strong calcium head
lights should be required to screen
them or extinguish them while running
through the city streets.
These brilliant lights, he says, are
binding to passing traffic which may
be on the same street with the auto
carrying the light. Instead Of burning
the bright light while inside the city
limits, Munroe says the oil lights should
be used to prevent confusion on the
city streets.
Other cities have these restrictions,
he says, and should be added to the
present ordinance.
