COLLAPSE
IN HAMMOND
One Thousand Fans See
Most Exciting Contest in
City's History; Two In
jured When Stands Give
Way; Hammond Wins, 9-8.

The opening of the Northern Indiana
baseball league in Hammond was seen
by an enthusiastic crowd of one thou
sand fans and was marked by a victory
for Hammond. who humbled Valparaiso
by a score of to s.
The game was called promptly at 3
o'clock and Hammond closed the first
inning with three well earned runs.
Valparaiso failed to score. but came
back in the second with two counters
and three in the third, handing Ham
mond three white In the nth
stanza Hammond started another swat
fest and added three more runs to it's
credit, ending the ffth frame with the
score to in Hammond's favor Both
teams received shutout in the seventh.
Hammond scored one in the eighth and
Valparaiso two, giving them a lead of
one run.
Things again looked dark and gloomy
for the Hammond warriors in the ninth.
when Valpo came back with another
marker Mette was first to rat and he
dropped a neat two-bagger. Fowler
was next UP and with a mighty swat
the ball dropped neatly over the left
field fence for a home run, scoring
Mette and himself and winning two
runs for Hammond.
The fans were wild with enthusiasm
when Fowler bumped the bal. in the
nose for a home run, and he was hailed
as the hero of the day.
Only one accident occurred to mar
the pleasure of the day, when the north
side bleachers collapsed, in1uring two
people.
B. Whitaker and a son of E. Fowler
received a number of slight bruises and
scratches. Luckily the bleachers fell
forward or a number might have been
seriously injured. The bleachers were
packed to their capacity and this is said
to have been the reason why they COL
lapsed. Z

GIVE SOX GAME. q
Extra Base Smashes Drive
in Runs That Beat Maps
in Getaway Contest.

Two resounding smashes from the
bludgeon of Mr.. Ping (Bfng) Bodie
paved the way for Sox getaway vic
tory over the Cleveland Maps yesterday
by a score of 2 to 1. One of these would
have been a home run drive had not
Comiskey wired off the field in the ex-
pectancy of an overflow crowd. The
other was a certain triple and might
have been a homo run.
Between $4,000 and $4,000 fans saw
the contest, which was featured by
much of the spectacular. One handed
catches, the spearing of line drives, and
lightning double plays kept the crowd
thrilled throughout. Although the Sox
accumulated only six hits. they man.
aged to bunch two of these, resulting
in one run. Another hit, followed by
two sacrifice hits, drove over the other
counter.

CUBS SLAUGHTER
O'T0O[ES CURVES
Ten Bingles, Several For
Extra Sacks, Yield Vic
tory by 6 to 2.

Marty OToole is only human, even If
he did cost s22,500. He was on the slab
for Pittsburg yesterday in the final
game of the series of five against the
Cubs. and the west siders turned on
him in a rampant mood and gave him a
sound beating by a count OF to 2. thus
getting ample revenge for the trim
ming he gave them over in the Smoky
City few days ago.
Lew Richie opposed the young star
and the honors went to the lurid one
of the west side staff. Lew was in top
form, and If James Tilden Sheckard had
only been able to stop hot base hit by
Chief Wilson in the fourth inning the
Pirates never would have scored at all
AS it was, the bail skipped between
James feet and rolled to the fence. and
before Artie Holman could run 1t down
Wilson had sprlnted around the cir
cult, driving Miller in ahead of him.

W|NGF|ELO'S APPOINTMENT

So far as we have noticed only
two papers in the state have
criticised the appointment of George
Wingfield to succeed the late
Senator Nixon. One of these is
the Clark County Review and the
other is this paper. The Review
in the following tells how the ap-
piontme mt was received in Clark
county:
A message received Wednesday
night brought the astounding news
that George Wingfield. we'll known
as one of the proprietors of
Tonopan's notorious buom-day
resort, the "Tonopah Club" and
lately of some affiuence by reason
of lucky investment in mining
stocks, had been appointed by
Governor Oddie to succeed the
late George S. Nixon as United
States Senator form Nevada.
At first many thought the news
d hoax and refused to believe it.,
but many others, mure familiar
with the entanglemrnts Of the chief
executive, knew it to be only too
true. Scores of republicans and
democrats familiar with Wingfeld's
record in one respect and lack of
record in another respect in Ne
Vada are outs poken in their con-
demnation of Gov: rnor Oddie's
audacity in foisting this man upon
the great commonwealth of Ne
vada as its representative in the
national senate.
Much of the censure INDUCED in
by leading local republicans would
not look we'll in print, while others
who seldom balk at anything that
bears the republican st mp, merel y
grin sickly grin when the matter
is mentioned in their presence. 1t
is the concensus opinion that
Governor Oddie has performed an
act that will reflect discredit upon
the State o. Nevada for years to
come.

DEAFNESS CANNOf Be CURED

b; local applications as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the
ear There is only one way to
cure deafness, and that is by con-
titutional remedies. Deafness is
caused by an infamed condition of
the mucous lining of the Eusta chan
Tube. When this tube is inflamed
you have rumbling sound or i'm
perfect hearing and when it is
entirely closed. D afness is the
result, and unless the inflammation
can be taken out and this tube
restored to it's moral condition
hearing will he destroyed forever,
nine cases out Of ten are caused by
Catarrh, which is nothing but an
inhamed condition of the mucous
surfaces.

BEN KLATTE

Ben Klattc, Elko's justice dis
peuser since Jan. l, 1910, throws
his hat into the ring today for a
denomination. As justice Of the
peace Mr.. Klatte has enforced r @
law without fear or favor. He
has probably made mistakes, but
we believe he has made an honest,
sincere effort to deal Justly and
fairly with all parties brought
before him. We recall no instance
where he has failed to enforce the
law against the guilty.
With his record as a guide, he
again asks this party for a vote of
{ 1nfidence at the primary election.
Should he receive it, he will make
his opponents hustle at the Novem-
Der election to beat him under the
wire.

CHICAGO CONVENTION

The following dispatch was
received from the Reno Gazette
about 500 this afternoon:
The convention convened at
1902. A protest was made by
Governor Hadley, a Roosevelt sup
porter. against recognizing the
temporary roll call of the national
committee. After arguments by
both sides, the protest was over
ruled by the chairman. The Taft
men nominated Senator Root for
temporary chairman and the
Roosevelt forces named Governor
McGovern of Wisconsin, a La
Toilette supporter. Roll call by
states now being taken and Root
is leading. The convention has
been in an uproar frequently.
Roo5evelt's supporters are fighting
every inch. Governor johnson of
California was Kissed and jeered
when making seconding speech for
Nc Govern. The real battle starts
over the selection of temporary
chairman.
La err Root was elected by a
vote Of 558 to 5O2.

FREQ C. VOIGHT

TEST WELL SHUT DOWN

The Geological officials have shut
down operations at the test well
until after the first of July. The
reason for this is shat new tools
and pipe have been ordered from
Pennsylvania, hut owing to delay
cannot arrive in time TO do any
thing this month. The appropria-
ton of $4,000, like all such ap-
preparations of this kind, was
made for the fiscal year, ending
June 80. 1912. and all excess left
at that date will revert to the U.
S. treasury.
At this time it is not certain
whether congress will make
another appropriation to be avail
able for this work, or whether the
work will be turned over to the
agricultural department.
During April and May better
progress was made than during
previous months. A depth of 835
feet has been attained and during
the last 60 days two flows of water
were ,sdeveloped, enough neither
was very strong.-Fallon Eagle.
