CHAMPS COPIED GAME
In GINGERY FINISH
There Was Variety and Some
to Spare

The shades of eve were slowly
falling when the fans hied them away
from Dudley Field yesterday after
noon in order to reach Home Sweet
Home" before the last fragments CT
supper were cleared away. But then
it wasn't so bad, after all, for we
won by the nifty score of 4 to 3.
Nay, Geraldine it wasn't the best
game of the season, but maybe it was
the most interesting-esp that
nerve tingling finish about the ninth
spasm. In fact, it would be hard 20
mix up more various kinds of playing
call them weird, woozy or what-not
than were hashed, sandwiched and
fricassed into those brief nine in
nings.
The Marshallville fans were very in
teresting specimens, also, the kind that
drive dull care away and make you
forget it's hot. They came in force,
too, thirsty, noisy and pugnacious, but
''Trot" Fort was too much for them
by at least an inning. And great is
the hoarseness- dark brown
tastes-in MarshalviIle to-day. Neither
is it recorded that the elongated Per-
ryman enjoyed the dose administered
to him, witness the dramatic manner
in which the w1ry one flung down his
gauntlet before His Jumps" an(
walked indignantly-in the opposite
direction.
Occasionally there was enough
seltzer in evidence to efervesce, as
when Pepper, the old Mercer star
playing in center, made a sensationa
running catch of hard hit ball close
against right field fence, The fans
gave him the glad hand, though The
catch shut off a run or two. Lastly

WOMAN WOULD WALK ON
WATER; BROWNS IN RIVER

Macon, Ca, Dec. 1S.-After at
tending Holy Roller, meeting in
East Macon, Mrs. Eliza Thorpe be-
came SO imbued with religious fer
vor that she concluded she could
walk on the water. Her husband sat
up with her until daylight, trying to
convince her that she had an erron-
eous impression But she was OBJ
stinate and insisted that she could
perform the feat When her hus-
band left to go to work she called
several of the neighbors to witness
the deed and ran to the river block
distant. Upon reaching the bank
she took off her shoes and cloak and
waded into the water In a minute
she was swept under by the strong
current and when her body was re-
covered 10 minutes later she was
dead. Nearly hundred people wit
messed the drowning. The tragedy
will probably result in a ban being
placed on the Holy Rollers" in
Macon.

HAVE CHANCE TO
LAND AUTO ROAD
Trans continental Route Has

POSSIBILITIES IMMENSE
Is Project on Which Booster Organ
izations Could Well Afford to
Cooperate.

Thanks 10 efforts of Davenport and
various cities along the river to
river road from Davenport to Coun-
Gil Bluffs across the entire state of
Iowa. 1t seems probable that the trans
continental automobile road will pass
through here. At any rate that is
possibility. The original plan
contemplated having the cross
country road enter Iowa from Illinois
at Clinton but due to the influence
brought TO bear, a survey projecting
the road through the tri-cities has been
made.
WOULD MEAN MUCH HERE.
The importance of such a road is
hard TO estimate but II would mean
that thousands Of autoists would pass
through here annually. II is a mat
ter on which the tree cities should
cooperate and make sure that the
road comes this way. The Rock Is
land club. the business mems organ
ization and the city commission as
well, could afford TO turn their at.
tention to boosting the project along
with the Davenport interests.

cflcial start having been made by
Mayer Carlson of that city, who
cranked the motor. The mission upon
which this car was sent was that of
laying out a good trans-continental
route to the Pacific coast, preparing
a first-class highway over which tour
lists can travel by way of the scenic
route over the Rocky mountains in
Colorado.
GOOD TINE WESTWARD.
Mr.. Peck, on the trip westward, ar
rived at San Francisco July END, hav-
ing covered 2,646.5 miles in 124 hours
and 81 minutes running time, which
means that he averaged 211s miles an
hour, phenomenal average cpeed, con-
sidering the condition of the roads.
To comprehend what this average
means those who are accustomed to
taking cross-country runs in their own
cars will understand that to accom-
plish this a speed of at least 60 miles
an hour must be made wherever a
good stretch of road Is found.
THRILLING EXPERIENCES.
Mr.. Peck had some thrilling ex-
periences on this wild and hazardous
dash half way across the continent
He tells of an effort to arrest him at
Newton. Iowa, for exceeding the speed
limit in one OF the towns through
which he passed. Owing to the fact
that all the members of the party
wore khaki uniforms the authorities
thought the car was occupied by sol
diers. Upon reaching Newton, Peck
and his party were halted and asked
If they had seen any soldiers enroute
into Newton Sure, We passed them
down the road. Their car was broken
down." said the eyer-ready Peck. New
ton authorities are still looking for
the soldiers, it is understood
TRAIL A GOOD ONE.
The route which Peck blazed in the
Midland-40 is one that is thoroughly
practical, though it will De better
when improved. There were but two

going but few stretches we're easy.
One of the brilliant performances of
the car was the climbing of 5,02S feet
in AZ miles and the entrance to
Schofield, Utah, in which an automo-
bile had never been seen. In Price,
the town visited before Schofield, it
was freely predicted that the automo-
bile capable of making this most diff
ficult ascent had yet to be built.
CAR STOOD TRIP WELL.
The appearance of the car upon its
return to this city is such that all
who have inspected it say that it has
proven a remarkable machine. 1t is
