would indicate that there are times when
the Nationals can wallop the ball as well
as any team.
Howard Shanks is still hitting in hard
luck Yesterday he had two long line
drives pulled down from his bat which
would have been good for three-baggerS
had they been a few feet to either side.
Speaker was the first to rob Shanks
when he came in and grabbed his line
drive in the third inning. In the eighth
Hooper made q beautiful catch of another
liner which Shanks sent into deep right
field. 1t was after catching this ball
that Hooper threw home in an effort to
head off Morgan coming from third. and
Morgan upset Bill Carrigan with great
force at the plate. Fortunately. neither
of the players was injured.
Clyde Milan did not take kindly to Col
Inns delivery, but in the seventh inning
he hit a terrific liner toward right field.
Yerkes, more out of self-protection than
anything else, threw up his hand and the
pesky sphere stuck in his glove, robbinS
Zeb of base hit.
1t is not likely that Johnson will be
worked against the Athletics in Philadel-
phia Saturday. Griffith does not believe
in working his star pitcher out of turn,
and If he worked him Saturday he would
have had but two days rest and Griffith
be at his best 1t is most likely that he
will not be used against Mack's team
until Monday. Hughes is carded to face
the Red SoX tomorrow, and the chances
are that E,ngel. Cashion or Gallia will be
used in the opener at Philadelphia.
Yesterdays game was most one
sided affair." made so by the inability OF
the Red Sox to hit Walter Johnson, while
the Nationals found Ray Collins slants
to their liking.
In the second inning the locals scored
enough runs to assure victory, three COM
ing over the rubber. Morgan started the
round with a single and Ainsmith got
life on Gardeners error. Shanks made
perfect sacrifice, advancing both run
ners, and then Mcbride hit far over
Lewis head for three bases, scoring both
men. Johnson popped up, but Moeller
came through with a single to left, which
sent Mcbride home. Milan ended the
round with a roller to Collins.
Though they continued to hit Collins
they failed to score again until the
seventh. when McBride's single and john
sons triple brought the fourth run. In
the eighth two more We're added on Can
dis single and Morgan's triple.
Carrigan got a scratch triple in the
third inning, with one out. but never got
off of third. Johnson walked Hooper In
the sixth, with two out. and he was
forced Yerkes got a scratch hit in the
ninth, and Speaker walked, but the next
man up proved easy. The score:

Young Olsen. who is known TO the ma {

Collins has been hit as hard as he was
yesterday. The score does not show Just
how hard his delivery was connected
with, for many hard drives We're right
at one of the waiting fielders. All dur
ing the game Speaker and Lewis were
chasing long drives to the fences. Spea ker
complained in the middle of the game
that his tongue was sunburned from
chasing the Nationals hits, and this
came pretty near to being true, for he
was kept on the run most of the time.
Manager Steve Griffin of the Richmond,
Virginia League. club Is in the city to
see Manager Griffith regarding Richmond
securing Doc Ayres the pitcher who re-
fused to report and was suspended by
the local club. Manager Griffith is not
disposed to allow Ayres to play anywhere
but here, though he did not give Griffin
a definite answer today.
Eddie Foster. Eddie Ansmith and Wal
ter Johnson We're all under the weather
yesterday. Foster had a high fever and
could not play. but Ainsmith and Johnson,
though not feeling well, consented to go
through with the game.
George Mcbride never has very big
batting average at the end of the season.
but few players get more timely Wallops
than he. In the few games that the Ma
tionals have played this spring McBrides
bat has played a prominent part, and he
day. 1t was his triple in the second in
ming which gave the Nationals a three
run lead, and his single in the seventh
gave his team another run.
If Griffiths team can keep up it's pres
ent gait it is going to be easy matter
to beat it out this season. 1t is a smooth
working aggregation, with wonderful
catching staff and some high-grade
pitchers From a defensive standpoint it
is by far the best team in the circuit. and
its work has been most consistent this
spring. If it can get an even break in
the twelve games it viii play in a row
with Boston and Philadelphia. it is very
apt to retain its lead during the western
trip, for on form those western teams are
not in the same class with three of the
eastern teams.

QUEER BURIAL SERVICE.
How ALBANIAN Islanders Protect Their
Dead From Evil Spirits.

OedO ETO" 6VU SPusSos
Strange Is the burial service among
the Adaman islanders. It is the GUS
tom Of the islanders to drop the bodies
Of their parents into the sea at the end
Of ropes and leave them there until
nothing remains but the bones. which
they then gather and hang from the
roofs of their huts. 49,.
It is a common custom for q relative
to sit by the hour and watch the bones
Of some relative. This is the way they
have of showing their love aud respect.
The bodies are treated in this fash
ion so that the evil spirits cannot tease
and pinch them. All that is left are
the dried bones. and these r placed
high so that if the evil spirits wander
into the huts they will have a hard
time to find them. II a bone is carried
away it means some bad spirit has
seized it. and this means that some
terrible calamity will befall the fam
lily.
In the Katanga district Of central
Africa when a chief and his wife dies
there is great feasting and celebrating.
Some Of these festivals last three or
four days. After the bodies are laid
to rest with dancing and rejoicing
because they are going to rule over
a higher sphere their relatives and
friends do not depart until they leave
one or more chairs and a supply of
clothes. This is done because the souls
are expected to come out and wander
about their. graves.-Chicago Tribune.

jewel, a precious jewel, who makes
the rubies and fine gold of the Good

theft of such a jewel is palpably a
felony, for no Swede domestic could
possibly be considered as falling be-

general principles, considering the
quality of the service rendered by
domestics in other states, Senator
Rockne has much that might be said

that Something Should Be Done, and,
