Baseball Notes.

Yesterday was wash day in the
Kitty. whitewash being the smeary
fluid that was applied TO three
teams IL was a strange eoinci-
dence.
A letter has been received from
the management of the Toledo club
in the American association by
Treasurer W. +. Cochran, OF the
Kitty league. asking him under
what conditions that club can use
the baseball park here for its spring
training in 1911. II is likely that
the deal. will be made and the In
dams will play exhibition games
with that fast aggregation.
Anderson is certainly proving a
savior for the Indians. who have
won every game since he took charge
of them. Another defeat for Clarks-
Vile Is on the shelf this afternoon
and a large bunch of fans are out
to watch the Indians work since
they have been rejuvenized.
Instead OF the b. b. Hooks ann
teur team playing Just one game
with the Indians at the close OF the
Kitty league a series OF three games
will be played at League park. The
Hooks have a fast bunch and should
prove interesting for the Paducah
TRIBE. Most of the Indians will be
here for some time after the season
closes.
Lee o. Johnson Is the name OF
Paducah's new left fielder. Yester-
day Johnson didn't have a single
chance in the game. During the
three games at GAINESVILLE he had
only four chances, three in one game
and one in another. He is a fast
fielder and will strengthen the In
dams out1eld.
KYLE, the new first baseman. had
l15 chances yesterday and took every
one of them. In the ninth he made
grand stand catch from Anderson
and nothing within his bounds VIII
get by him. lie is as good as any
first baseman in the league.
Woodring is on the mound for
the Indians this afternoon and over
ton is catching. For Clarksyille the
battery is Hoyt and Strube. An
other victory is booked today with
Woodring on the slab.
The b. b. Hooks VIII go 70
Dawson Springs tomorrow morning
where they will play the fast team
Of that place tomorrow afternoon
The lineup for the Hooks will be:
Wagner, c; Council D; Williams

roe, 3b; Cox, IS; Burton, II; G. Har-
per. CT, Hammers, RI. Sneed will go
along with the team to MI out In

two men and another was safe on a
sacrifice hit. The bases were full
and Runyan redeemed himself by
catching McWilliams off third sack
when Harris was at the bat and
waiting for the fourth ball to be
called. McWilliams was up first
and Runyan walked him. Laitner
followed by landing safely at first
on a nice sacrifice hit that was too
hard a proposition to catch him.
McWilliams stole second in the
scramble for the pill. Runyan then
proceeded to fan Strube, but fell
down next by walking Priest. Then
the bases were full and Harris APP
peared at the bat. Runyan passed
three balls and the crisis had ar
rived. Another ball meant a forced
score for Clarksville, but Patrick
kept his noodle and with a quick
survey of the situation espied Nc
Williams a good distance away from
third sack. Like a cannot ball the
pill was hurled to Dummy Payne
in time to tag McWilliams before
he could recover his place at the
bag. Anderson sent the ball TO
Varnadore in an effort to catch Lat
ner. but the runner raced to the
bag and was declared safe. Runyan
was wild and walked Harris, result
ing in the bases filling for the Sec
ond time. Fisher raped one to
Varnadore and was put out at first
sack.
Paducah followed by scoring.
Overton singled on hot one to
center. Floyd fouled to Strube and
Cox singled. making II to second on
Thompson's tumble and advancing

sent a long fly to center and Thomp-
son COPIED 1t easily. Remaining on
third until the ball was in Thomp-
sons hands. Overton raced for the
pan and beat the ball as a result OF
Thompson's short throw.
Another error for Clarksville let
in another run for Paducah in the
sixth. Varnadore arrived safely at
first on a muffed liner to McCance.
Anderson sacrificed. Harris to Nc
Williams. varnadore raced to sec
ond with safety. Kyle famed and
Varnadore hoofed il for third.
Strube sent a wild one to Laitner
and varnadore flew in home on the
error.

killed a hit from McWilliams in the
ninth and shot the ball to Kyle be
fore the runner could make his ar
rival. II was a hot liner sent out
by Mcwilliams and in a bad place,
but Anderson displayed a feature
stop. forcing the third out for the
visitors.
johnson failed TO get a hit yes
terday. but fans are expecting more
of him later. Harris struck out
seven Indians to Runyan's three and
failed to walk a single Red Skin.

In what is conceded to be one of
the fastest ball games witnessed at
League park this season the Indians
walloped Clarksville for a fourth
straight victory yesterday afternoon,
making the third shut-out for the
visitors at the hands of the local
tribe. II was a grand exhibition of
the national game and Paducah
played remarkable ball, pulling her
self out of tight pinch in the sec
ond and holding Clarksville down
to goose eggs throughout.
pat" Runyan pitched remark
able game. allowing only four hits
that failed to show up in the score
column for the visitors. Not an
error marked the victory of Padu-
cab. The Indians recorded their
first score in the second on John

Pueblo BoycoHs d. 6 r. G.

Additional advices regarding the
routing of freight have been received
at the offices of the Transportation
Association following the campaign
against the Denver and Rio Grande
railroad for the unjust discrimination
in rates against Pueblo.
AS result of the action it is stated
that little of the freight bound for
Pueblo or being sent from this city to
other places will be sent over the Gould
lines. This is being done to show the
officials of the road that the city really
has claim for justice regarding the
transportation charges and that it will
be to the railroads advantage to pay
heed to their demands for a fair rate.
Old residents of the city are now be-
ginning to look into the rate situation.
One expressed himself yesterday at the
offices of the transportation Associa-
ton as being surprised that the condi-
tions should have existed for the past
quarter of century without being
fought by the whole people of Pueblo,
but that now the matter was being
fought that the whole city would enter
in the campaign to give Pueblo what it
justly deserves at the hands of the
-ailroad company. Pueblo Chieftain.

Klaiber Wins Out.

G. A. Klaiber was over from Long

matter Of using Longmont cuts in their
advertising literature. In letter he
received from the commercial associa-
ton. which some time ago offered him
500 il he could prove his statement,
regret is expressed that the use of
Longmont cuts should have been re-
sorted to and promise is made that 1t
shall not occur again. The 500, how
ever, was not sent to him. Monday 5

1t seems to have come about in an
accidental manner that a cut OF
strawberry patch down at Longmont
got mixed up with Delta county cuts in
a folder hastily gotten out by the Busi-
ness Mems Association for the Apple
Show, and little thing like that
caused all that volcanic eruption on
the north side of the state.
Delta county had plenty of cuts-has
,.lenty of cuts with which to illustrate
her resources, taken from as attractive
orchards and gardens as can be found

it loaned, free of charge, large num-
ber of these cuts to North State realty
dealers to use in their printed forms.

illustrations are used over the state, fol
she is able to deliver the goods.

Novel Plan TO Be Used
TO Give Land AUay.

Washington, Feb "a Unwilling that
record breaking endurance test should
be held with the approval of the gov
ernment, Secretary Ballinger ha S
adopted a novel plan for the allotment
of forty-acre farms at Yuma, Califor-
mia. during the first of March.
The necessity for the plan arose from
the anxiety of claimants To be the first
on the spot where the allotments were
made. The secretary was informed
yesterday by telegraph that more than
200 mel and women had already formed
] in line before the land office in Los
( Angeles, in order to be the first on
hand on March when the allotments
were scheduled to be made. The hard
ships that would result from such an
endurance test did not appeal to the
secretary. so he wired the land office
that different plan had been adopted
In accordance with the new arrange
ment the secretary has ordered that a
hall or a baseball park, large enough
to accommodate all who desire to partic.-
pate in the allotment. be engaged in
Los Angeles for March /. To those
assembled in the hall or park by 3 a.
m. on that day, cards will be distributed
by agents of the government. On these
the name. age. height and postofiice
address of each homeseeker must be
written.
At any time between March ] and
March 10. the applicant may appear at
the land Office in Los Angeles and. upon
being identified by the card, may make
application for any of the l72 farms
that the government is to give away.
An opportunity will be given to those
who file on the same claim to decide
among themselves which shall have the
land. II this is not done. the govern
ment officials will choose the lucky per-
son by lot.
