HANNIBAL, Mo-, June 26.-In a
game featured by the hurting and cool
readiness of Pitcher Bernard Brown,
a former Three Blink man, Hannibal
took the second game of the series
Tuesday by holding the long end of a
to I count A great rally in the
sixth frame won the game for the To-
calls when they amassed a total Of
three runs on three hits, sacrifice
fly and an error. 1t was pitchers
duel between Brown and Whitaker,
the chunky Indian, Until the fatal
sixth Hannibal failed to do much to
Whitaker until that frame but got
to him proper then and afterwards.
1t was Ladies' Day and fair sized
crowd of the fair sex were in attend
ance at the battle. The Climbers
took the opportunity offered to them
by Whitaker and experienced little
or no trouble in bagging the contest
as the Indians appeared real danger
Gus but once after the first inning.
Ed Painter got Whittaker's goat in
the fourth spasm when he spanked
the horsehide against the right field
fence for a nifty single. Then Louie
Woerth. the popular hoy, reached first
on Davy Moore's misplay. Mllligan
shot single into the center garden.
An error by First Stacker Summers
was responsible for Hannibal count
ing in their first run. O'Mara smack
ed one to Whitaker who pegged to
Art Queisser forcing Painter at the
home plate. Queisser relayed the
ball to Summers and double play
would have resulted had Summers
held onto the ball But he performed
In the opposite and the ball rolled
away while Woerth scored.
In the Sixth.
1t was in the sixth that Louie
Woerth led off with a two base smack
which journeyed over the right wall
onto the choo choo track. Milligan
beat out bunt. Ollie O'Mara scored
Woerth with double into center
field Roy Brown was walked on pur-
pose and the other Brown with the
christian name of Bernard scored Milf
gan when he pasted out a sacrifice
fly to Barnes in the right garden. At
the order of Queisser Whitaker
walked Red" Smyth, the base run
ming champion of the circuit, loading
the sacks and working for a double
play. Roy Brown was leading off
second and Queisser pegged the bali
to Bauman who fell over Brown and
dropped the ball allowing OMara to
count. Schoolmaster Henderson sent
one to Davy Moore who relayed the
pill to Bauman, forcing Smyth. Then
Roman ended the festivities by send
ing fly to Murray.
The Climbers annexed their fifth
run in the eighth inning. Roy Brown

Sporting Views
BY the Editor

With the Fourth getting closer.
more interest Is being shown in the
coming championship battle at Las
Vegar. Both men have their partisans
in town but the Flynn men are few
and far between. Johnson, from the
viewpoint of the local sports will win
at any time after the second round
and will do 1t easily. They are bank
ing on the dope of the Langford bat
tie Johnson had hard time earning
decision over the chunky Sam in fif-
teen rounds, while Flynn was disposed
of by Langford in one round In Frisco
and went no decision bout with him
in the Los Angeles ten round affair
later
OF course the Flynn hackers are
saying that Johnson has gone back
and that he has lead an unusually fast
life since the fiasco at Reno but they
are met with the statement that lS5
pound man will have to be some scrap
per to beat even mediocre fighter
who tips the scales at 30. Added to
this Is the fact that Johnson Is known
as one Of the fastest heavy-weights
that the pugilistic world has ever de-
yeloped and the Flynn arguments are
rather flat, to say the least. Summing
up the situation from the east side of
the typewriter, it looks like good bet
that the big cinder will get away with
the long green again.
When the Indians arrive here for
the game Thursday afternoon. they
will have not only the Herrites to
beat, but crowd of rooters from
Quincy that have declared their inten-
ton to save up their breath for the
rest of the week to give Hannibal the
benefit OF some good hard roofing.
the Quincy bunch will be here on the

II is strange that there should be SO
little really good coffee.
To a great extent bad coffee is due
to carelessness in preparing IT, though
admit that tastes differ, and as there
are so many brands Of coffee 1t is DIFF
fieult to find the one which suits the
taste. Since / have been here I have
experimented with many hundreds Of DIFF
ferent kinds Of coffee. To find one with
perfect flavor is always hard, but
even the Ordinary coffee. IL II is we'll
prepared. can be made delicious.
OF course there are many wonderful
new tangled coffee pots with more labor
and time-saving devices. \ good cook
can make coffee in any kind Of a sauce
pan. They make wonderful coffee in
the army. where the freshly roasted
coffee is put into a pail, ground with the
butt Of q gun and then pure water
poured on it and boiled up over the
camp fire.
But since We are speaking of pots,
;heer is one important thing which
chef does not have to think about be-
cause his utensils are cleaned By ex-
perts. but the ordinary housekeeper,
whose maid is none too perfect. must
remember that good coffee depends
upon the cleanliness Of the coffee pot.
For that reason l do not care for pots
which cannot be thoroughly cleaned and
which have crannies and ereEiees that
retain tiny particles Of the coffee despite
the best Of washing.
The coffee pot. too. must be very well
ventilated when not in use. Cleanliness,

pour over it, that is the secret OF per-
feet coffee.
When the coffee is served at the table
In a silver or metal pot another pos
sibill;y is added. for the odor Of the
silver or the taste OF the metal will ruin
the delicate flavor Of the beverage an
less il is absolutely clean and free as
well from any trace Of the cleansing
powder and polish.
The after-dinner coffee should be the
special care Of the ladies Of the house,
and as no good dinner Is quite complete
without If. the coffee should be as nearly
perfect as possible. For that reason the
hostess should understand the working
Of her percolstor or pot. and the aroma
which comes from It should crafty the
sense Of smell as well as the palate.
1t takes positive talent to make bad
coffee in some OF the new pots which
require only coffee. water and alcohol
and a match. and do their work really
without further guidance.
But freshly roasted and ground coffee
will give an especially delicious flavor
even to coffee that Is already perfect.
One Of the standbys Of the French
kitchen is French soup. The ideal of good
King Henri " was that every French
family should be able to boil chicken

extent that remains a sort Of culinary
tradition. yet the modern family do not
rely On soup as they did In olden times
as the mainstay Of the meal. nor IS the
soup as good or as INJURIOUS.

Stephen E. ellis C'steve,' of course-on.
Of the fighting Gilllses'). a small, fear
less young fellow, handsome. quick Of
wit. with eyes like needle points.
Clemens was fond OF Steve ellis from
the first. The two became closely asso-
ciated In time. and were always bosom
friends; but Steve was a merciless joker,
and never as long as they were together
could he resist the temptation OF max
ing Sam swear" claiming that his pro-
family was grander than any music.
Led by Steve ellis. the Enterprise force
used to devise tricks to set him going.
One Of these was TO hide articles from
his desk. He detested the work necessary
TO the care Of lamp and wrote by the
light Of a candle. To hide SANS
candle vas a sure way to get prompt
and vigorous return. He would look for Il
q little. then he would begin a slow cir
GUAR walk-a habit acquired in pliothOuse

Now, among his Virginia City AcQuaint-

Ing. Now and then he came to the office
to call on him. unfortunately he hap
pensd TO step in Just at the moment
when. Infatuated by the latest theft Of his
property, Samuel Ciemons was engaged
IN his rotary denuncistion of the erimi-
nails, obvious to every other circumstances.
Ar. Rising stood spellbound by this. to
him, new phase OF genius, and at last
his friend became dimly aware of him.
He did not halt IN his scsthing trezdmill
and continued in the slow monotone Of
speech.

piled, but 1 should forgive them. for
