occasions when Wolter is suspected of
having lured young women to his

MAKES FANS WILD

Barring Its unhappy denouement. yes
terday's battle between the Cubs and
Giants on the west side was by long
odds the mast exciting and uproarious
that has entertained a crowd since the
early days of baseball The score was
10 to in New Yorks favor and some
of the crazy bugs made that an excuse
for a rowdy demonstration.
Our notion of nothing TO be proud
of is a disposition SO grabbed as not to
be satisfied with an exhibition which
included for a single price of admission
everything that ever happened IN a ball
game, with the exception of a hit by
pitcher and an out on foul bound The
latter feat has been ruled out for years.

too expert yesterday in lodging wild
pitches to let the former feature creep
into the box score In addition, an ar

often that one is treated in one day

Jack Johnson for the heavyweight box

Not five minutes after Johnson had
knocked Jeffries out in their Reno bat
tie" said Mr.. Frazee last night. "Gotch
told me he could whip Johnson and that
he would be willing to fight the negro
giant If given proper training for ten
months a year.
Gotch asked me to put the PROPOSE
tion up to Jim Corbett and see what
he thought about 1t.
COrbett Is Enthusiastic.
Il met Corbett yesterday, told him of
Franks plans and he became wildly
enthusiastic over the idea.
Everybody knows Gotch is a sterling
athlete and the greatest wrestler in the
world They knew he is about the
most powerful man in athletics, that he
is young and that he takes the best of
care of himself. Where is there another
man more promising or capable of
whipping Johnson

of 10 to 6 at the Hammond Athletic
Association ball park yesterday after
noon.
The biggest crowd that his gathered
at the local ball park since the last
Tom Murray affair were spectators of

was comfortably filled and the bleach
were about half occupied The less
than twenty cent men were wit

thusiasts, who can tell you all about
the game after ii is over with by see

Mitchell Is Stingy HurIer.
Mitchell pitched his initial game for
the Hammonds and got away with it.
He not only got away with 1t but he
proved to be puzzle which was not
solved until the ninth inning. Although
he yielded three hits in the first eight
innings, none of them did as much as
bother the new twirler But in the
last stanza the visitors solved his de-
livery and pounded out three more
singles Whether Mitchell tried to mitch

Scored Twice In First.
The locals started their weekly as
sault in the opener. KIopp whitfield and
Pearson sent hot one to second. the
latter fumbled and Pearson was safe
on first. Rohde singled to right and
Pearson got as far third on the hit.
Ride took second on the first ball
pitched and Fowler sent a long fly to
center, Pearson scoring. McCay fol-
lowed with a hard grounder to third

and three more men scored.

the fifth inning, but they were not any

half of the same stanza.
The locals kept right on scoring in
nearly every inning. Again in the sixth
Pearson scored with his third run of
the game. But the visitors came to bat
in the seventh determined to make
things look good and one of their men
counted. Hammond scored their ten
and last run in the eighth inning with
out making a hit.
Last Stanza Exciting.
A grand attempt to over-power the
locals in the ninth stanza was made
by the visitors and what happened in
this inning proved to be intensely in
teresting and amusing. With the count
