REUlBACH PILOTS
CUBS TO VICTORY

Ed Reulbach started, finished and
won a game for the Cubs yesterday aft
ernoon, and great was the rejoicing on
the west side. Hank O'Days prancing
Reds, who gleefully are holding second
place in the flag race, were the oppo-
nents for Big Ed. and he just breezed
through the contest, allowing only
three base hits. The final score was 4
to /.
One of the three bingles was a ire
mendous fly by young Mr.. Phelan, and it
dropped over the screen in front of the
left pavilion for home run. That's
how the Reds managed TO score. That
happened In the eighth inning. In the
seventh Hoblitzel banged one to the
right wall for two bases and in the
ninth Bescher combed a single TO right,
and that's all the hitting there was.
Ed had a splendid curve ball and he
had control. passing oni ytwo batters.
He could cut his fast bali over the plate
easily, and there was enough speed on
it to make it hop a bit. It's true enough
there were several balls hit awfully
hard by various members of the Reds.
but outside of the three previously men
toned none got away from the Cub
fielders. Jimmy Sheckard had to dive
into the grass and balance himself on
his ear to get drive by Senior Marsans
in the fourth, and he was fortunate
to be standing on the spot where at
least three others fellows lined the ball
or there might have been more base
hits. Johnny Evers did some dandy in
fielding that spoiled a couple of posi-
BILE base hits. and Heine Zim plucked
one back of third base in a manner
most eommendable.

names of those rolled out fat by little
Tommy Knots steamer roller.

IT'S too bad that Gary can't get that
park in time enough to move the car
nival roulette wheels to the grounds.
YOU have to hand it to those Ham
mond cops for the clever way in which
they step upon the auto speeders.
ONE reason that they don't pitch the
old-fashioHed game of horseshoes down
at Highland any more is that most Of
the aristocracy have gone in for autos.
FUNNY thing about Mayor Knots big
S,0o0-horsepower steam roller is that
it always runs out of gas about the
end of October.
THOSE who have thought that they
would get even with the ice trust by
holding on to the last minute will now
find it appropriate to put in the order
for the first chunk
WHY worry about the Taft-T. r.

over.
WHY is that a girl even in her early

tell her that she looks like she is 16?

sailing into the Inland canal. When
the Inland begins to compete with the
Panama ditch it will be simply awful
if the /. Fl. mariners decide to charge
ships from Gary and other foreign
countries canal tolls.
AMONG other things getting that
new street car line running from Gary
to Crown Point with a dime fare will
certainly lessen the high cost of mar

RELIGIONS NEW ALLY.

Moving picture shows on re-
ligious subjects may now be CIV
en- in Roman Catholic churches in
America. The Vatican has just
given its consent to this distinct
innovation at the request of sew

der which the pictures may be
shown are that the sacred host be
removed from the church during
the performance, and that the
women be separated from the
men. 1t is also ordered that the
church be sufficiently lighted.
Magic lantern shows may not be
given under these conditions.
The above cable from Rome call
attention to a new era in motto

OAKLEY
CAPTAIN
PROTESTS

Hammond, Ind. May 2s.-Editor
article was published stating untrue
facts regarding the ball game be-
tween the Hammond OakIeys and
the Gary team. charging the Ham
mond team as a bunch of DULLES
and that there was wrangling and
fights, but the true facts are that
there was no bulling. fights, but
there was one argument on a double
play which would have given the
Oakleys the game. but they gave in
on the umpire's decision. Isn't that
fair enough? II the Hammond boys
wanted to be bunch of DULLES
they would not have given the De-
cision. Regarding the gambling and
pool, it would be a very good thing
IL they could make them (the spec
tators) quit it. but 1t is just like
telling somebody to quit eating, and
you have a fine chance doing 1t.
And further on in your story ii
reads there was no policeman down
at the park. There was a policeman
down there and if he (Mr. Fox) had
seen anybody fighting, gambling or
wrangling he surely would have
stopped them. Yours truly.

Mystcrlons I,nhllcry.

New York. March 2i.-The myster-
ious robbery Of Mrs Maldwin Drum
n.ond, who was the widow Of Marshall
Field, Jr, of Chicago. when she mar
ried the wealthy Engilshman, was one
OF the most mysterious the American
police ever had to solve.
The jewels were taken from the
drawer Of a table in her dressing room
in her suite on the Hamburg Amer
lean liner Amerika, while the steamer
was off the Ambrose channel light on
the night of February q, 1911. The
jewels included black, white and pink
pearls, some of them being Btones
noted for years as being the most
perfectly matched in existence. Mrs.
Drummond had them insured in Lloyd
for more than 100000 and collected
the insurance.
1t was believed at the time that the
Jewels were stolen by a gang Of inter-
national thieves.
