Ninth With Gandi Resting on Thrd-Might Have Used

Bv SENATOR"

CLEVELAND. July I3.-The Climbers
had a chance to shove a run over IN
the ninth. 1t would have called for the
retirement Of George Mcbride. necessi-
tating rearrangement of the inheld
for the latter half of the inning and
would have demanded a hit In the pinch
by the man sent to the plate In Nc
Brides stead. Manager Griffith looked
at the situation and decided to take a
chance on the captains coming through
with a bingle. thus saving him for the
latter half. Mcbride had not connected
safely in three trials and Grir figured
that this might be the time. He failed
and Gandil, who had singled and worked
his way around to third on outs, was
moored at the hot corner.
That entire ninth inning was sizzler.
Gandil opened II by crashing to center.
Morgan laid down a perfect sacrifice.
and while Doc Johnson was grabbing
Shanks' roller the big fellow reached
third Then came the pinch. The in

jackson and Lajoie who were almost
certain to come UP in the last half So
Griff depended on Mcbride The best
he could do was to shove a vicious
bounder for Turner to heave across the
lot and the last chance Of the Climbers
to cop had faded from sight Hughes
was pitching stellar ball and Chapman
was called out on strikes Then Turner
bingled down the third base line, his
speed alone saving him from being
thrown out at second by Hank Shanks.
Jackson WAS too dangerous a bird and
Hughes passed him. being willing TO
take a chance on Latoie. He had done
this already in the seventh and worked
himself out of a bad hole by making
the big Frenchman force Jackson at
second with the bases filled. But this
ninth inning Larry seemed a different
man. He waited till he saw one to his
liking and poled i. on the nose into left
field. Turner scurrying over from sec
ond base. The 5000 bugs howled and
yelled in their joy, for tht bingle gave
the victory to the NapIanders and
worked, the undoing of Tomasso
Hughes.
Chick Gandil showed I'D Carisch and
Vean Gregg in the second and made
them both look ridiculous in the eyes
of their friends. Gandil was on second

plenty Of ground of the bag and the
next time the catcher started to lob
the ball back to the box, made a dar-
ing rush for third. Gregg was caught
or his guard and the big first base
man slid into third easily, Gregg never
even attempting to make a throw to
Turner. A moment later Shanks, who
was On first. thought he might get
away with the game trick. but this
time Gregg picked up the ball and got
the daring gardener with a perfect peg
to Chapman.
1t Is day lost that does not see
Zeb Milan contribute at least one great
neiding stunt and his play yesterday
did not figure in the result. spectacular
as 1t was. In the seventh Raw Chap
man poled Texas Lacquer to center
with Blanding on first. Milan came in
under that fast dropping ball with the
speed of a whirlwind. He meant to
catch it and double up the chunky
twirler at first. The ball was falling
too rapidly though and though he diyed
ahead on his face. the best the Linden
Flyer could do was to make one of the
most spectacular pickups ever seen on
bali field. No: II didn't change the
result OF the game any or even get into
the box score, but that was a wonder.

WALTER OHNSONlS
PITCHING TODAY
Game Widely Advertised Is Expected to Bring Out Host Of
Fans to See Big scythe Opposed by Willie MITCHELL the

CLEVELAND, July l3.-All Ohio

morning preparing the seats for the
crowd. Every seal in the immense
structure was thoroughly cleaned and
all is now ready for the opening Of
the game.
While they acknowledge that Walter
johnson is just about the best thing
that ever came down the pike in a
hurting sense the Maps believe that
Willie Mitchell has a chance to defeat
him, If he can but show the form he
has recently on the mound. Mitchell is
one of those lads who lose games on
wild heaves to right field following a
pass or two. Seldom is he hit very
hard. Today he takes a chance against
the Big Scythe.
The use of Tom Hughes yesterday
makes It almost certain that Dixie
Boehling will twirl tomorrow's game.
There had been some doubt about this
until now. Boehling is !ounS and
strong and can repeat with only two
days rest where an older pitcher would
weaken and stagger under the strain.
If the smiling, belt-pulling younSster
meets his Waterloo al League Park,
Harry Harper will follow him t" the
mound for his second dip into major
league baseball.

many Cleveland fans. The Cuban's

Hearings on the bills providing for
the licensing and bonding OF produce
commission merchants in New York
state. thereby affording protection for
the producer against dishonest and un.
sCrupulous middlemen, have been spir.
tied in the extreme. During one OF
these hearings the rafters Of the great
Albany capitol fairly rang with the
short and ugly rejoinder The commits
sion men objected to the bill to the
verge OF rpOplexy. They did not want
to be Inspected and bonded. They
rallied at the provision that merchants

And when all semblanCe OF argument
failed them they roared at the farmers
that they were the ones to be inspect

in kind. Twas beautiful row with

Finally exhausted. the commission
men declared that really there wasn't
any money in buying aud selling farm
products. at which there was great
and continued laughter. The oppo-
nents OF the bill scored one point
however. when they put themselves on
record that they would withdraw all

tackled TO the measure making 1t a mis-
demeanor for farmer to mark his
goods as being OF quality or quantity

sound logic that II honesty is to be

The bill in all probability will be
enacted into Law, but that fact will not
help the man for whose benefit 1t was
framed unless he plays his end OF the

WAYS TO UTILIZE RYE PATCH
Acre or Two Of Rich Land Will Fur
nsh Supply Of Early Green
Feed for Cows.

Rye which Is sown In the fall for
green feed during cold weather may
be economically used in at least three
ways the next spring and the early
summer. One OF these ways is to use
II for pasture. Another way Is to
use 1t for a summer soilIug crop for
milCh cows.
An acre or two on rich land will
produce large amount OF early
green feed and the crop can be used
for nearly three months. To use rye
as soiling crop, keep the stock of
Il in the spring and when It Is tall
enough TO cut take the mower to the
patch and cut enough for two days
feeding. Rake this and store Il In
the barn and feed out Then NOW
enough more for another two days
feeding and continue the same meth.
cd til the patch is all mown.
by this time the rye OF the first
moving will have grown up enough
for second cutting and In success.
sion II may be cut several times dur.
Ing the early spring and summer In
this way great number OF cows may
be kept on limited area OF pasture.

are liable TO overeat and sure case
