OmahOgs, 4 to 2.
Beckley Exhibits Importation
of Electrifying Pepper.
ONLY ONE ERROR MADE
Thompson Allows Beck Landing
on AbbOtt's Grounder..
Visitors Hit Eight Times and
Topeka Seven.

Sir Charles Jackson was quite the
whole exhibit at the ball yard and
threw and tied the Omahog herd in rec
ord time, to 2. He was assisted ma
terially by Swampy Thompson who
contributed an error at crucial point
but somewhat handicapped by enc thin
Showers whose ancestors likely stole
that 49, to fill out his inheritance.
The show was by far the best staged
S'n the lot in many a day, both from
the fact that the Cooleysox won and
that the play went on with snap and
vigor Vet Beckley had an importa-
tion of pepper that was electrifying to
the fans.
The Rourkes took kindly to Jackson
immediately upon his introduction,
Davis slapping him on the back for
safe one. Corridor martyred and KIM
hit. Davis scored and the two nex-
went out.
Wooley, first up for Topeka duplica-
ted Davis turn with bingle and stole
second. Woolcy went to bring him hons
but he got a chance to ride in on
wild pitch from headquarters.
Thompson sat IN with a pile OF nerve
in the second, dragged in hit and
stole second. Old Man Condine follow
ed by calling Jackson for a double
hich he tossed to left while Thomp-
son ran home with one to the good.
Fast fielding and steady pitching Won
for the Ccoleysox. The home team
splashed twice in the second inning.
Welch beat out a slow one and Abbott
singled. Welch was caught sneak1ns
up to second and line was thrown to
Abbott but Kerns failed to make con-
rections and Abbott was left to die,
without a hit to their credit the
Omahogs scheduled a parade In the
seventh when Jackson handed over
three walks and Kerns added passed
ball The climax came when with two
on bases and two out, Corridor came up
the hill Jackson was uneasy and al
lowed hin. to get past with a Walk.

hit chapter of the day. Beckley slammed
a screechirg lirer to right that upset
the noise of the thin conterpiece. Welcn

himself useful for the moment by Sacrl-

It Is sixty-two years ago to-day since
gold was first discovered in California,
and its finding came about in a peculiar
way James Wilson Marshall, who was
born in Hunterton County, y. J.. had
emigrated TO California and located at
the site Of the present city of Sacra-
mento. one day. while engaged in try
ing to find a location for a sawmill for
his employer. he blasted away some rock,
and let the water. during the night, pass

Early In the afternoon. OF Monday, jan

An Ugly Christy Picture.

Lovers of the beautiful, the chaste. and
the inspiring will unanimously incline to
wish. we think, that the marital in
fellcities appertaining to Artist Christy
and his wife might have been kept out
of the public prints. The parading Of
them did nothing more than pander to
the morbidly curious, the while it surely
must have shocked and discouraged thou
sands who had come 10 admire sincerely
the Christy pictures for the genuine at
Effectiveness there is in them.
This unwilling of the Christy domestic
situation revealed, we may say, the only
ugly Christy picture ever held up to pub
lie inspection. When one thinks of the
lovely women and manly men Artist
Christy has drawn and given to the
world. one shudders involuntarily while
contemplating the disgusting recitals of
his everyday life.
Perhaps we should allow something for
the so-called artistic temperament 1t
is a charity invoked more than frequently
nowadays to cover a multitude OF sins.
Il may be, of course, that those who truly
appreciate art for arts sake are able
to forget the sordid artist in their rap
ture of admiration for his work; but 1t
is not so with the common run of human
beings-they who constitute the great
majority of mankind. And the artist
owes something to them; they are the
ones, indeed, who produce the wealth
that makes possible the patrons Of art.
who, In their turn, make possible the
lasting fame of the Christys. They have
no right-the Christys-to mar the COM
pleteness of their endeavor by painting
in nasty and low truths concerning them
selves.
| Genius mistakes the real lessons OF
history if it thinks it can perpetuate It's
artistic performances to the exclusion OF
! its coincident mworthiness. Byron was
great poet, but he would be held IN
much higher esteem to-day had he been
man of personal cleanliness and honor
along with it. He is a fair example OF
the hundreds the world has known. M
matter how far the art OF the immoral
may carry, the art Of the moral carries
! farther.
And whatever the truth Of it all may
be, we hold it at least fact not to be sue
cessfully assailed that, in cases Ike thi:
of the Christys, ignorance permits the en-
joyment Of quality of bliss beside which
1t were worse than folly TO be wise.

CORNER IN scent PIECES.
Disappearance of Once Familiar
Coin at Last Explained.

From the New YORK sun.
The disappearance Of the Scent piece
has for years been matter Of mild spec
ulation. Few persons are aware that a
large proportion Of the coins Of this de-
nomination which remained in circulation
when the government stopped issuing
them. are peacefully slumbering IN sun
dry large fat canvas bags In the vaults
OF a certain electrical manufacturing
company Of Chicago. They are not for
sale just yet Years ago the company
equipped many telephone pay stations
with dime slot machines. II was sup
posed that they could be worked only
with dimes. The scent pieces were be
coming rare and no thought was taken
Of them. Hardly had six months passed
before one of the telephone companies
discovered that the collectors We're Weld
ing a harvest Of Scent pieces. Then
from all over the country came similar
complaints.
Each company forwarded the pieces TO
the manufacturing company. and more or
less politely asked that a corresponding
number Of dimes or a check for an equiv
alent amount be sent back in exchange
A council was held at the Office Of the
manufacturing company. The cost Of cor
recting the boxes was compared with
fairly trustworthy information Of the
number OF scent pieces in circulation. Il
was found that a balance was in favor of
the 3 cent and it was decided to accept
| the pieces as dimes Gradually the in
| pour or Scent pieces narrowed down 70
an intermittent current The company
seemed 10 have about all the pieces. It
is said that IL ever the premium on Scent
pieces goes high enough the coins viii ba
offered 10 collectors at prices based upon
/ the original cost 20 the company. plus six
| per cent a year, plus cost Of storage. plus
cost Of guarding. plus cost Of carrying
the fund upon the books. Long ago the
slot machines sthat collected them were
relegated 10 the scrap heap.

Hail. Ultimate Consumer!

The Ultimate Consumer is not a myth.
Conditions are forcing him into evi-

out the broad land. and promises quickly
to number millions strong.
Nobody disputes to-day that the Ulti-

high prices for the food he eats He has
suddenly become an insurgent. In the
resistance he is offering TO existing con-
ditions, in his outcry against a state of
things he knows is not right, he repre-
sents all types of mankind and all
classes.
The Ultimate Consumer who can afford
to pay the prevailing high prices and
the Ultimate Consumer who cannot
afford to pay these prices are join
ing hands and standing upon common
ground. 1t is a formidable and signif-
cant compact the Ultimate Consumer is
entering into It involves a supreme
