Virginia Corn Paw. Nightly.

a Southside Virginian incloses the
clipping below, ana says thereby
hangs n tale" The clipping says:
MANY Eastern financial ma gaines
express the belief that the country is
confronted with n corn crop shortage
of the proportions of n national disas-
ter They believe. also, the Importance
of the occurrence is being in large
measure ignored Ordinarily. the dis
position Is to cXaGgcratc crop damage.
ON the present occasion little cogniz-
ancc OF it, is being taken outside the
grain markets. The reason is that
during the last two months n much
more hopeful feeling has developed on
the stock exchange and u very inn
portant rise In prices has been cstab-
lishcd. This advance on the stock cX-
change has occurred notwithstanding
the great damage done to the crops,
Notwithstanding the cut In steel prices.
Notwithstanding the reduction in the
Chesapeake and Ohio dividend and the
passing Of the dividend on Big -Four
preferred, and other unfayorablc
events"
The hint that the Southsidc Virs inian
offers is rs follows;
1--WE are not rejoicing in the mis-
fortunes of others, but we recognize
the fact that there is no shortage in
the Virginia corn crop. and this looks
like mighty good year FOR our corn

Sioux City Journal: Jack Hendricks
is said to be apprehensive lest he lose
the 1913 pennant. This may sound like
a joke, but a close inspection of the
record and the present status of the
Bears proves that Hendricks hunch
is sound. Tuesday morning the Griz-
zlies had an eight-game lead over DeS
Moines, the runner up. The season has
about two months to run. Mucn can
happen in that period of time Tho
Bears may slump, or some of their
stars may be injured in fact, almost
anything may happen. But the real
rub is the condition of Hendricks
pitchers. At this time he is relying upon
Mel Wolfgang and Casey Hagerman
to stand the brunt of battle. Harris
seems to have lost his cunning, King
is going none too good and Barney
Schreiber's job is no sinecure. Hager-
man is overworked, having pitched 26
games already, so it is virtually up to
Wolfgang to keep the Bears in the race.
Jack Hendricks would like another
pitcher mighty well, but they are a
scarce article. The second division
clubs, especially Sioux City and To-
peka, are going to bave something to
say if it narrows down to a close
race. Just now the Sioux and Kaws
are going better than either Wichita or
Omaha, the other second division place
holders. Omaha has slumped woefuI-
ly, but the advent of new manager
may have a wholesome effect Babb
couldn't deliver in Wichita, SO it re-
mains to be seen what he can do with
a club supposedly stronger. The job
bers are in and cutters, and therefore
are likely to upset the dope any time.

KaWS Defeat Omaha by Batting
in Pinches-ScOre, 8 to s.
Bunched Hits in Third and
Fifth for Enough to Win.

Omaha Aug. S.-Bunching hits on
the Omaha pitchers enabled the Topeka
team to win the odd game of the series.
Both teams staged a batting rally in
the third inning, with the Kaws in the
lead and the locals never were able to
overtake the Kansans. The Kaws hit
at lust the right time, thus continu-
ing to shove the Omaha team on down
into the second division, with little
hopes of regaining their lost position
The score was 8 to 8.
The first two innings proved to be a
shutout for both teams and the Vlsl-
tors started the fireworks in the third
inning Joe French began hostilitieS
by hitting to left field for three bases
George Smith who was pitching for
the Kaws, doubled to right and scored
French. Cochran followed with SIN
gle which sent Smith to third, Carlo
smith singled and scored George Smith,
Forsythe doubled and scored Cochran.
Robinson was relieved by Hicks and
NIcI.arry led off with a home run over
the right field fence which scored two
runs ahead of him. This made total
of six runs in the inning. Gear and
Crist were forced at second and Joe
French ended the inning with fly to
Coyle.
The local club attempted to repeat
the performance of the visitors IN the
last half of the same inning and were
partially successful Grubb and Hicks
were safe on an error and an infield
fly, Coyle hit and Grubb was thrown
out at the rubber, Thomason doubled,
scoring Hicks and Coyle. Congalton
followed with a single and scored
Thomason. Congalton stole second and
scored on Kane's triple. Kane scored
on Johnson's infield hit and the side
was retired with five runs.
The Topeka team scored three more
runs in the fifth inning when George
Smith doubled and scored Rapps and
Crist. Cochran singled and scored
George Smith.
Omaha scored another run when Con-
galton doubled to right, went to third
on an infield play and scored on Gears
error. The locals scored another in the
sixth and another in the ninth but
could not lie the score on the raging
kaws.
Umpire ColifiOwer was sick and Bill
Shipke of Omaha and Lou McAllister
of the Topeka team, umpired the game.
