Last Years top Notchers
 Are Making Poor Showing

SEATTLE. May 9. As the baseball season progresses it now seems that the worlds champions, the Red Sox, will be out of the running even for pennant honors this year unless they take new lease of life, and show better form than they have since the season opened.
 The Athletics. in the American league. are still maintaining their place on top, although Cleveland erawled up close to them during the past week by winning five out of seven games played, while the White Elephants split even. win ming and losing three Boston lost third place to St. Louis. who forced them to drop back one notch. Chica- go, by winning and losing 3. while Washington won 8 and lost 4. was able to get into third place. In this league the fizzle of the season has been the New York Highlanders who, under the able management of Frank Chance, for the Chicago Cubs. have been unable to get out of the cellar, and have played most wretch edly at all times.
 In the National league it is nothing but the Phillies, who are gradually strengthening their good lead. The fans of the Quaker City are now in high hopes of having a champion ship contest played right out in their own cities, and many baseball dopesters all over the country figure that the city of Philadelphia is certain to have the worlds cham pions this year. New York dropped back one place during the week, and replaced in third position by St. Louis. Boston and Pittsburg also changed places, the former dropping into second to last place in the league
 In the Northwestern league the wonder of the week was the six

Baseball started in Fairbanks yes. terday with a rush. All of the real live ones of the town turned out to see the Marquettes. with their nice new pretty uniforms. go down to defeat at the hands of the Van Dykes by score of 13 to 12. As the score would indicate the game had to be very loosely played or hard hitting game for both teams to run up such high scores. It was both. for at times both teams hit the leather for all 1t was worth and at other times they couldn't seem to find 1t with a dredge scoop
 The game was all that could be looked for, so far as interest was concerned. as it was anybody's game right up to the last out. The crowd that turned out while fair in size, was not as great as was looked for by the manage ment.
 In the second inning of the game the Van Dykes laid into Buckley who was pitching for the Mar quettes. and before they let up had five runs to their credit The fol lowing inning the Marquettes waltz. ed around the bases to the tune of runs and to the discomfort of Mover who was in the box for the cigar team.
 Again in the next inning they laid onto the leather once more and ended up with 4 more tallies to their credit.

THREE LARGE
 GARAGES BURN

CHICAGO, May IS. Three of the largest garages in then south side which housed one hundred and thir- ty automobiles were totally destroy. ed by fire during the past week. The loss on building and cars is esti- mated at more than $5OO,O0O, about 50 per cent of which is covered by insurance.
 As the fires started almost simul. taneously, although they are some distance apart it is thought that it was the work of "The Fire Bug Trust" that has been invading this city for several years past, and which recently was put under a rigid examination by a special grand jury.

Mover, of the Van Dykes, and Buck ley, of the Marquettes, were recov- ed from the box and new men put in. Pauli went in for the Van Dykes and for the remainder of the game kept them from scoring but one run.
 For the Marquettes, Carlin, who has never been seen in the box in Fairbanks before, topped the mound and pitched as pretty game of ball as has been witnessed on the local field. His support was wretched throughout, and was the cause of the opposing team getting seven runs In the last two innings that they went to the bat. In the last five in nings the new twirler held the Van Dykes down to but two hits. Car. lin himself, for the Marquettes drove out two pretty hits. and made him self the real star of the game.
 The lineup of the teams was as follows:

IN MEMORIAM.

Dedicated to the memory of J. w..
 (Whitey) Moore) He has passed out, the mortal life of him is now no more. The spark eternal illumined his spirit, soul unto that farther shore,
 to this mundane sphere of ours. For him there is no soft refrain. no saddened hearts, no flowers There seems to be none to speak one word of kindly thought. So poor was he, that none we knew would call him friend. His life so chequered was with man fold sins so fraught, That of all who knew him there were none to soothe his end. This is the common verdict of those who speak his name. But I, who knew him. write not thus the man to blame, For meath his rough exterior hid from all mortal ken, There was great goodness, one such as God loves in men. With all of his seeming errors. there are none who will deny That his heart beat ever fondly for his little wife and boy. Let them speak of him derisive, let no eye for him grow dim, Yet, friends, the mother of his boy, and God, will kindly think of him. J. l.. T.
