.KAWS LOST LAST
ROgge Held KaWS While Team
mates Drove in Victory.
Was Invincible After the Fifth
Inning.
SCORE q TO 2 IN 10 INNINGS
Richardson Relieved Rusten-
haven With Score Tied.
Batting Rally Melted Two Runs
i'm Tenth.

| The Boosters finally stopped the
Kaws winning streak and succeeded in
maintaining the lead in the second d.
vision. One dark headed man with the
monicor of Rogge proved himself a
rogue by being tight in passing out
safe drives and defeated the Kaws by
the score of to 2 in a ten-inning
battle.
| Rustenhaven pitched good consistent
ball until the ninth inning, when with
the score a tie. he began to swagger.
Richardson was called to float the ship
but his right paddle didn't work with
satisfaction and she scuddled. He al
lowed the first man in the tenth to
walk and this followed by double
and a single, two runs were SnoVeo
| across the rubber. The Kaws made an
effort to pull up the slack but couldn't
deliver the goods.
| Both pitchers were unsteady at the
| beginning of the game but they set
| tied down, and with the two runs To-
peka secured in the early part of the
contest, it appeared they would nave
| enough to win The Boosters outhit
the Kaws from beginning to end but
We're not successful in getting them at
| the right time until the sixth inning.
| They showed a run across the pan on
this occasion and another in the eighth,
thus tying up the game. Their con-
duct in the tenth has been told.
The Kaws got their first run in the
fourth when McLarry led off with free
transportation, Rapps sacrificed and
| the former scored on a single by
French which went to centerfield. This
round ended with a double play.
The Kaws got their second run in the
fifth inning and on the weak end of the
batting list although the strong end
drew the hit that denied the rubber.
Smith led off with a single, Rusten-
haven sacrificed. He scored on Lees
single. This was the last hit by the
Gear, batting for McAllister was safe
on scratch hit to Andreas.
The advances of the Kaws appeared
to fill the visitors with determination
and they got busy in the sixth inning.
Hunter singled and went to second on
passed ball and Reilly and Jones
followed with singles which were
enough to score a man with wooden
legs. They got their second run in the
eighth inning when Andreas led off
with a pass, Fox sacrificed, Hunter
advanced him to third when he went
out from Smith to Rapps. He scored
on Reilly's scratch hit to Rustenhaven.
Rustenhaven showed uneasiness in the
ninth and allowed the first man to
walk, the second sacrificed and then
Richardson relieved him. Cupid re-
lieved the side without trouble.
Things began to happen just as soon
as the tenth inning started. Hahn
walked, as usual, Andreas showed him
to second on an infield out, Fox scored
him on a double and Fox scored on a
long single to left, by Hunter. The
rest can be determined by the follow
ing box score:

WILL WIN PENNANT.
Murphy Says Cubs Won't Miss Tinker
-McGPaW Lost Chance.

New York, May lowe will win
the pennant by a margin of eighteen
games," said Magnate Murphy of the
Cubs today.
1--WE don't miss Chance or Tinker.
Bridwen is six years younger than
Tinker and also younger than either
Shafer or Fletcher, who are trying to
play shortstop for the Giants If Nc
Graw hadn't let Bridwen go because
of a personal alteration, the Giants
would have won the worlds series last
year. This proves to me that even
McGraw's judgment is not infallible.
Bridwell is the best shortstop in the
league today"
What do you think of Heine Zim-
merman's inability to play with your
team %
"Phelan is covering third base ac-
ceptably," responded Murphy. 1.-The

indiscretion will afford time for him

Speech Made by President.
eject Wilson.

Chcago.-"Big business" its righ'
to growth and its duties to the coun
try, were discussed by President-elec'
Wilson in a speech before the Com
mercial club of Chicago.
Among Governor Wilson's audience
were bank presidents, railroad presi
tents and heads of great business en-
terprises.
81 don't care how big q business
grows. provided it grows big in con
tact with keen competition" he said
THE future business Of the United
States does not depend upon the gov.
ernment, but upon the business men
Of the United States"
Wilson said four things must be
done either by the business men vol.
unfairly or under the whip Of law.
These four things were:
Natural resources must be conserv-
ed and also used for the common good.
Raw materials must be put at the
disposal Of every person in the United
States on equal terms.
Banking credit must be put on
terms of equality to all.
Business must be free of every
form or of every kind of monopoly"
AS Governor Wilson made his first
declaration he was loudly applauded.
No applause greeted his fourth declar-
alton.
You do not applaud that. am sor-
ry you feel that way. For that will
make it hard to do what will have to
be done. II you feel that way, it will
have to be done by duress, which is
always unsatisfactory"
Elaborating those four points, Gov
ernor Wilson said:
THE rank and file in the United
States do not believe everybody is Oh
equal terms. You have got to clear
yourselves. before that great general
jury. That is your job. not mine.
81 have reason to believe that there
are inner circles and outer circles OF
credit and that man cannot get into

thirteenth session Of the Washington
state legislature, which began here
Monday, will be one of the most
stormy in history.
Confronting the legislators are sev-
eral distinctly new factors which are
being taken into consideration by the

the political lineup. From present
prospects the republicans have control
of the house by only one vote. There
are so republicans, 2s progressives, is

With a republican speaker elected.
the republican vote will be cut down
to 49. The strength of the other FAC.

republican again this session, but the
majority is smaller than at any time
since 1896
Another feature which is causing
considerable conjecture is that of q
democrat holding the office of COVER
nor. Just what the effect will be with
a republican senate, rather uncer-
tain house and a democratic governor.
