semblance by another negro in Burke's
saloon, Tenth and Davenport streets at
6 clock last evening.
Every inch of the way to the police
station where Mitchell went for surgical
attention, was tracked with pools of blood.
He was assisted along by several other
negroes who were present at the time
the knife was used on Mitchell, but none
Of them would tell the police who did the
cutting.
Sergeant Samuelson in the absence Of the
police surgeons, who were all out On emer-'
gency cases, turned surgeon for the time
and stuck a roller towel into the gaping
wounds In the injured negro's face. Then
Mitchell was rushed to st. Joseph's hos
pital where DR.. Peppers put twenty stitches
in the wounds, which extended all over the
left cheek. through the mouth and thence
on TO the right cheek The only clue
Mitchell would give to his, assailant was
that he was bad niger" whom he never
saw before.
Mitchell claims that he only came to
Omaha from Kansas City a few months
ago and has been employed as garbage
wagon driver for Charles stotz. He will
recover, but 1t will take some time.

BUILT A KITCHEN CABINET
Handy Man Worked at It Sundays,
but Forgot to Measure the
Stairway.

He Is the meat man In street
grocery Besides being handy at trim
ming spare ribs with safety razor
he is also an adept with carpenters
tools. About year ago he decided
to build kitchen cabinet for his wife
He chose the basement as the place
of construction. ordered a lot of lum-
Der and other accessories and went to
work
The only time he had to give to the
kitchen cabinet cause was on Sunday,
as he had to work early and late dur.
Ing the week. He closed all basement
windows tightly In order to mufi1e all
tae noise he made with saws and ham
mers. He even had set of signals
arranged with his wife that she was
to stamp on the floor when the min
lister or some pious friend was pass
ing. Sunday after Sunday he toiled
away on the kitchen cabinet. picturing
In his mind how pretty and how USE
full it would be in the kitchen.
Finally the cabinet was finished and
the builder asked two or three OF
the boys at the store to drop over on
Sunday morning and help him carry
1t upstairs. The boys, anxious to see
the product of so many days OF toll,
accepted the invitation and went over.
1t was Jim Dandy kitchen cabinet.
1t was the best ever--even better than
the store kind
We'll boys, let's hike upstairs with
IT," said Fritz, the cabinet constructor.
The boys took hold, tilted 1t and
started for the stairway. Fritz groaned.
The boys smothered laugh.
1t was nine inches too wide for the
stairway.
The cabinet has departed this lie
via the furnace. 1t is unlikely that
Fritz will build another.

hitting by Senno, Johnson and Kensel,
coupled with the effective pitching of
Dunn and the magnificent fielding of
Kensel enabled Ottumwa to outclass
Monmouth in one of the prettiest
games of the season. The work of
Kensel on ground balls was not less
than miraculous, and the four great
assists OF the little player aroused the
fans to. the highest pitch of enthus-
iasm. Kensel took desperate chances
with men on third base, and his per-
feet work was largely responsible for
holding the score to one lone tally of
the invaders. Boyd was spiked by
Wall in going after Finney's hit in
the opening round and Moves was only
able to finish the inning, suffering with
a sore arm Dunn was effective the

About every week the Keokuk team

c. A. Sporting Briefs

A question of the rules came up at
a critical time in yesterdays game.
A Keokuk batter struck out with men
on bases. The ball rolled against the
leg of the umpire and Pennington
claimed the batter should be entitled
10 first base He was thrown out at
first and the proper decision was rem
dered by Mapel. If a fair hit ball
strikes the person or clothing of the
umpire or a base runner then the
batter is entitled to first base. There
is nothing in the rules to say that a
third strike hitting the umpire en-
titles the man to a base.
We have Dr. Andrews TO thank for
little complaint He says that Bur.
lington and Keokuk look one. two.
to him right now, and if the two clubs
go as they have been during the past
two weeks the pennant fight is be-
tween them The Kewanee manager
is playing a good game of ball him
self right now, and is a peppery
leader
Hilly is daring base runner or
else he is not clever, and his ability
on the bags permits wide argument.
Those that say he is not clever do SO
because he has SO often been caught
asleep and had taken desperate
4 chances They say he runs blindly
But It looks as though Hilly, with the
speed that he has. is certain to make
a base runner Several days ago he

Start Game With Run.

Pennington's error on McManus'
roller started the game badly for Keo-
kuk, but after the man had been sacri-
feed to second Murray pitched him
self out of the hole. Keokuk came
back with run-tte lone piece Of
scoring during the game With one
down Hilly sent a drive into the
hands of Dacey In center field The
ball was hot but should have been
handled. Dacey allowed the ball to
drop at his feet after holding it
momentarily Pennington hit to
short and Hilly did some great and
daring base running to move around
to third on the play to first. Painter
took one in the ribs and Boothby hit
to Fitzpatrick at short, who bobbled
the play and permitted run Blake
grounded out to first
During the next three innings there
was nothing of stirring nature.
Those rounds were absolutely devoid
of anything that bordered on sensa-
tionalism or thrilling performances
and it looked as though Keokuk's one
run lead would be sufficient
