By administering a defeat to North

wood for third place. Ingram displayed
. sample of its former aggressiveness
against its weaker neighbors.

Elmer Smith twirled good game for the
kids, and kept the Tar Heels" half
dozen hits well scattered. and twelve
succumbed to his slants via the strike
out tour.
Ingram took the lead in the opening
inning, scoring twice on two errors and
the game in the third when Carter
opened with a triple, followed by sing
les by Luscomb and Flynn.
"Reds" Hanley caught his first game
for Carolina and did some good work.
He nailed Luscomb trying to steal in
the third and caught Upton off third
IN the sixth, and accepted fifteen
chances without miss.
Goebel. Of Ingram, also did some clev-
er receiving. He nailed six would-be
base stealers and finished the game
with eighteen chances without an err
ror. He likewise combed single and
in the eighth.
Aside from the fact that they were
outbatted two to one, North Carolina
can attribute its loss to nine costly err
rors, nearly all of which counted for
scores.
Henderson had a big day to his
credit for the Tar Heels. In four times
KS up he poled a pair of two-baggers and
scored Cardinals only runs.
Crown, Cardinals left fielder, was
forced to exert himself on four Diff
fcult flies to the garden, but proved
himself master of ceremonies by COB
bling every chance.

American Security should have no diff
Guilty in disposing of Second Washing
ton, the tailenders, today. A victory
for the former will give 1t a command
ing lead in the pennant race.
Rawlings and West will probably
work for the leaders in the points.

lean Security has been excellent this
season, and he is a tower of strength
for his team.
The directors Of the league will meet
one evening this week to make final
disposition Of the over-registration diff
ficuiry.
Second Washington, while It has won
but two games, plays good ball in the
field, but is weak with the willow.
Should its players get their eyes on
the ball, the team would make trouble
for the leaders.
The leaders in the race have done con-
sistent batting throughout the season
against pitching that has been as good
as in any league in town.

TODAY-E. A. C. VS.. Seaman Gunners,
North Capitol and L streets.
TOMORROW-Cornell vs. Pumping Station.
Such games as the one yesterday are
seldom seen in amateur ball, and would
be a credit to major leagues. Heavy
hitting by the winners was responsible
for the victory.
Marines, newcomers In the league,
played excellently,\ but one error being
charged against them. The winners aso
hit well.
Hummer kept UP his reputation as a
strike-out pitcher, tanning fifteen, but
he was found for ten bingles.
The Marines have a fast aggregation
and should make trouble for all of the
teams. Had the sailors been In the
league from the start, the race would be
more exciting.
Yesterdays defeat of the Pumping
Station gives Cornell a commanding
lead. Should Pumping Station lose to
Cornell tomorrow, the latter would have
too much Of a lead-to be headed in the
penuant race.
Had Pumping Station been able to
hold the Marines for the twelfth In
ming, the game would have been called
a tie as darkness was fast aDDroac ching

iMPALED BY AN ARROW.
Pinned Through the Neck to a Tree,
Yet He Survived.


1t was in the summer of 1859 that
George Wainwright and Ben Spencer,
each in charge of train of freight
wagons, were headed for the Missouri
river TO bring supplies back to ColOra-
do points. The Indians were very
troublesome in those days. and these
two outfits always camped together
for protection One night they had ar
ranged the camp. with the wagons
forming a circle, and everybody but
the guards was to be inside. Vain
wright preferred to sleep in Clump
of cOttOnwOOds about quarter of
mile off, and there he fixed himself
with his negro servant as bodygUard.
Neither the camp nor Wainwright was
disturbed d''ring the night, but early
the next morning while Wainwright
was sitting on the ground with his
back to tree drinking his tin of COZ
fee an arrow from an unseen foe en-
tered his neck at the right of the
! jugular vein and was driven with such
force as to impale the victim to the
tree. The negro, believing his master
was killed, ran to Spencer's camp and
! gave the alarm.
Spencer and some of his men rushed
over to Wainwright. Instead of being
dead Wainwright was not even seri
ously injured. Spencer cut the arrow
off close to the point of entrance anC
then gently drew Wainwright's heat
forward until lie was released. Tht
victim suffered but little inconvenience

ARCHBISHOP
RYAN'S FUNERAL.
Church and People Unite in
Solemn Services.
THOUSANDS VIEWED BODY
Cardinal, PapaI Delegate and Numer
Gus Dignitaries Attend Services In
Philadelphia.

One of the most imposing funeral
services that ever took place in Phiia.
delphia occurred when the body of the
Most Rev. Patrick ]. Ryan, archbishop
of Philadelphia, was inferred beneath
the high altar of the Cathedral of St
Peter and st. Paul.
Practically all the prominent figures
in the hierarchy of the Catholic
church in the United States partici
pated in the service. The catedral was
filled with a crowd of $500 persons
and surrounding the building was a
great concourse of people.
1t is estimated that about 100000
persons passed through the cathedral
in four lines to view the body. Before
the doors of the church were closed
the crush became so great that nearly
a score of women tainted and had tC
be removed to hospital.
The body of the archbishop rested
upon a catafalque in front of the
high altar, surrounded by lights and
the motion!ess guards of honor. II
was dressed in the vestments of the
Office of archbishop, including the
miter.
The services began with the chant
ing of the divine Office. The anti
phonarians who performed this Office
included Cardinal Gibbons, surround
ed by his assistants in gorgeous vest
ments.
With the end of the services th
officiating clergymen retired to tn
sacristy, where the procession for tn
pontifical mass of requiem was form
ed. Last came the officers Of the mass
including Cardinal Gibbons, who pre-
sided, and Bishop Prendergast, auxi
iary of this archdiocese, who was tn
celebrant.
With them walked Monsignor3F Fa
COMO, the papal delegate to the Oni
ed States, representing the pope, an
Archbishop Glennon, of ST. Louis, Wa
preached the funeral sermon.
1t is estimated that 100000 person
saw the final solemn procession as
wended it's way slowly around Loga
square. Seven hundred and fifty p
Hcemen kept perfect order.
With the return of the cortege
the cathedral the body of the arc
bishop was conveyed to the crypt.

Russia to Move Against China.


The Russian government has al
vised the state department in Wash
ington of it's intention to make
military demonstration against China.
The details of the proposed movement
haven't been received. The Russian
government promises to send further
information on the subject to the
state department as soon as possible.
1t appears that the Russian govern
ment, wearied of what it regards as
persistent disregard by China OF her
treaty obligations toward Russia, is
about to bring pressure to bear to en-
force her rights, even to the extent OIL
a military demonstration in the prov
ince of Iii, the seat of the present
trouble.
That war will not result from the
latest move of the Russian govern
ment is the confident belief in diplo
matte circles here, for it is generally
understood thet the Chinese are to
tally unprepared to meet such fo'
as Russia at this juncture. So 1t is ex
pected that China will appeal to thu
powers, including America, for fai
play. What amount of support sh
will receive cannot safely be foretolG.

slays Wife to Wed Another.

Matthew E. Vanaman is under ar
rest in Reading, Pa, on the charge OF
shooting and burning his wife, who
was at first thought to have been
burned to death by the explosion OF
an oil stove in her home early on
Monday morning. The police say their
evidence points to a delibertely plan
ned murder.
The authorities declare a motive is
revealed by the remarkable story OF
Miss Ella Wessner, twenty years OF
age, of Blandon, who came to the dis
trict attorneys office.
Learning that her persistent wooer
was a married man, Miss Wessner
was overcome with grief as she told
Assistant District Attorney DUNN
that Vanaman had courted her during
the past four months and promised tc
wed her at Wilmington, DEL, the sec
