Some Of the efforts made by the Macks

laughable. The wind carried the old
sphere back and forth with such tantaI-
izing twists and curves that the fielders
were always in quandary in their at
tempts properly to judge the horsehide.

wild throw to second. this by Walter
Johnson, was responsible for the defeat
of the Nationals in the opening game
here against the Athletics yesterday. The
throw. which occurred in the fifth inning.
gave the champions two runs which
proved to be exactly the margin by which
they won the game.
Up to the time of this incident the
score stood / to Q in favor of the Ath-
letics. Coombs had started the inning
with a. base hit, and Strunk, in an effort
to get him UP to second, laid down a bunt
toward Johnson. Walter picked it up,
and, with plenty Of time to spare to catch
Coombs at second. let go a high throw
over McBrides head. The ball had SO
much speed on it that Milan could not
intercept it. and before it could be re-
turned to the plate both COombs and
Strunk had scored.
Inasmuch as the Nationals had not
even had a hit up to this time. three
run lead looked good enough to win, but
let it be said for Griffith's team that 1t
never quits. It continued to try. with
the result that it scored q couple of runs
in the eighth and had the champions bad
ly scared in the ninth, when a base hit
would have tied the score.
Aside from his poor throw. Johnson per-
formed brilliantly. He was not as steady
as he will be later, but he was most ef-
fective, though not lucky. His support
was far superior TO that afforded Coombs.
ming team. the Athletics got the good
breaks, in that their errors did not help
the Nationals in any way.
On two different occasions, for instance,

fly balls were dropped with a man on
first base, yet these misplays were turned
into force-outs and no advantage was
gained. Coombs pitched brilliantly and
until the eighth inning had not allowed a
hit He had walked a few men and 9TH
ers had reached the bags by means of er-
rors, but the hit which would have made
trouble for him was not to be had. Final
ly in the eighth the Nationals began to
solve his delivery and the three hits made
in this inning netted the only brace of
runs credited to them. Again in the ninth
the Nationals threatened and managed
to get second and third occupied, after
two hands We're out. but neither Moeller
nor Flynn could come through with the
necessary hit. though Flynn drove out a
long ny, which Strunk had to set full sail
for to reach.

Luck broke against Johnson in the very
first inning. After Mcbride had thrown
out Strunk Oldring dropped a Texas
Lacquer over second for base. Collins
grounded to Knight, allowing Oldring to
advance, and he scored when Baker hit
past knight fora base.
The Nationals threatened in the sec
ond, but that much-wanted hit failed to
materialize. Knight, with one out, was
given a lift by Collins. who muffed a
little fly. Mcbride was not troublesome,
but Foster drew pass. With two on,
however. Ainsmith gave Strunk an easy
chance and the inning was ended.
There was tough luck in the third.
After johnson had famed Milan drew a
pass. On the hit and run Schaefer sent
scorching liner right at Coombs. 1t
was too hard to handle, but the ball fell
at his feet, and he threw Schaeffer out
at first, and another chance had gone
glimmering. The Athletics did not
threaten again until the fourth. Then

Government a Fundamental.

next to this comes government. Gov
eminent is society at work. The gov
eminent belongs to the people and tho
people have a right to know what
they want. 1 made that statement
once and a man corrected me saying
that I should have said, the people
have a right to have what they want,
if what they want is right l asked
him who was to decide what was right.
He had to admit that the people were
the ones who decided what Is right.
God made man a little lower than
the angels. He placed them upon the
earth and gave them a conscience and
power to do what was right. If the
people make mistakes they must suf-
fer. The constitution is Of the people

popular government"
The speaker closed with a fine sum
mary of the three fundamentals and
an appeal for a more universal rever-
ence for the Bible and for an mistaken
belief in God and his teachings. He
was heartily %applauded at the close
and throughout the speech which was
~interspersed richly with pithy facts
and sparkling with wit, in which he
gave reference to the coming political
campaign and many OF the leading
issues of the day.
