the right sort of thinking, bust

use of this chain of newspapers

The tribe Of Indians from the terri
tory adjoining the Kaw river, are in
third place today, though tied with
Omaha.
The rampaging Kaws will be home
tomorrow with the Soos at their heels.
To casual reader it would seem that
the Kaws play nobody but the leading
Soos. But the Kansas tribe is fast
working their jinx over the Iowans
SO let them come on.
BY winning from Omaha yesterday
the Topeka club made it seven wins in
the ten games played on the road. 1t
is possible for them to win again to-
day. But the most hopeful fan ex-
pected them to win not more than five
out of the eleven on the road-flnest
little road team in the league.
Pa Rourke used four pitchers and
a change Of catchers to stop the Kaws
in the first game at Omaha and still
was beaten to 1. Jack Fugate went
all the way for Topeka and held them
well.
In that same game, tits said. the
Kaws played loosely and at ease ex-
cept when occasion demanded, in which
instances they became energized and
played perfect ball. Can it be these
Kaws who left Topeka an uncertain
quantity are now toying WITH the pTIoe
of the league!
Yesterday was error day at Omaha,
the Rourkes making eight and the
Kaws five. Pick, Pas prize third
baseman, kicked four good ones and
was relieved by Capt Shipke. Niehoff
bobbled with two. And Billy Breiten-
stein held up the record for Topeka,
making three.
1t seems this Western race is get
ting hot enough from the leaders down
to Des Moines, who as yet have not
warmed up. The Kaws had not warm
ed until this last trip so there may
still be hope for the "Hopefu1s."
Manager Moore probably will go into
the game here tomorrow. The report
is he has entirely recovered from his
nervous breakdown and will burn up
the second sack territory the same as
before.
Des Moines Capital: Des Moines fans
turned out in large numbers to the Me-
mortal day games. Three thousand peo-
pie paid admission fee to the park. 1t
was a good-natured crowd and they
were very joyful when Des Moines cap
tured the opening mix.
st. Joseph Gazette: We've got the
best ball club in the league" reiter-
ated owner Jack Holland, last night,
land Wen hit our stride in a few
days and when we do we'll begin to
overhaul some of these fellows" The
Drummer magnate is right, too. In
dividually and collectively the Drum
mers are ball players to be feared by
the other clubs. Lincoln was mighty
lucky to win that game yesterday and
the breaks won't be against the Drum
mers always. Some pitcher is in for
an awful drubbing when that bunch be-
gins to hit too.
Pueblo Chieftain: Manager Isbell says
the work at Selee park is going along
to suit him, and he is perfectly salts
fled with everything that is being done
under the direction of the local organ
ization of fans, who is responsible for
placing Pueblo back in the Western
league.
Il haven't a kick to offer-in fact I
am more than pleased with every
thing said Izzy, after he had taken d
peek at the ball yard. 1.-THE work is
being done just to suit me, and in fact
1 am pleased with everything see here
