Vaughn and the Giants rolled home
a flock of runs through the crevices.
That is what is peeving Manager
Bresnahan this season. He cannot
understand how men so mechanical
" capable in one game can be so por-
ously punk in the next And neither
can any one else. ...--
In the second game the Giants were
given three runs in the first three in
nings by bum support on the part OF
Tim, Fisher and Archer. Otherwise
Vaughn would have been through
there with clean sheet and could
have worked with more confidence.
Jim Archer, according to one OF the
war correspondents, became so
peeved because he had to catch both
games that twice in the second bat
tie he showed his displeasure by strik-
ing out on balls far over his head. 1t
seems a shame that a fellow has to
work all of one afternoon for some
thing like four or five thousand iron
men a year. And only have about
five months vacation.
Gents working on the city streets
for $3.50 per diem, happy in their
luxurious surroundings and con-
scious of their soft berths, deeply
sympathize with Mr.. Archer. ~.

Gas PRESSURE
WAS LIGHT
HERE TODAY
GAS PEOPLE ARE BUILDING A
SlXilNCH LINE TO THE GAS
AREA IN SECTION FIFTEEN :
COMPLETED NEXT MONDAY.

Many complaints were made here
today of a shortage of the gas supply
and if the mercury had dropped down
about zero there would have been
some suffering in this city from cold.
There is much sickness now, from
grippe and colds, and it is important
that the people have a bountiful sup.
ply of fuel. The pressure of the gas
this morning was about II pounds
when it is usually 20 pounds. This
was due to the demand for gas during
the early morning hours.
The gas company now has four
inch line to the big gas wells in
section Il in the Healdton field, but
is building a siX-inch line to those
wells, and when the line is completed
the pressure will be much better.
The line should be completed by next
Monday The officials Of the com
pany are of the opinion that when
the siX-inch line is connected with
the big gas wells that the supply will
equal the demand. But the wells in
that section are gradually making
some oil, and it is probable that the
heavy gas production will soon be
exhausted. One of the owners of gas
production in that portion of the field
said he would not be surprised to see
Ardmore needing gas before the win
ter is over.
1t is probable that many persons
will arrange emergency stoves to
burn coal, if a cold blizzard should
create demand for more gas than
the company can supply through its
six-inch line to the field.

THE STRONGEST
FACTOR NOW
is LEADING DEMOCRAT IN GUBER-
NATORlAL NOMINATION FORE
CAST STEADY GROWTH IN
SPITE OF ALL.

Oklahoma City, Lee. 21.-That j.
b. A. Robertson is far away in the
lead at this time of all those who
have gubernatorial ambitions is the
general opinion of tine statesmen in
the Mercantile building.
Ii is pointed out by the cognizant
ones that Judge Robertson not only
has retained the strength which en-
listed under his banner in the last
state election, but constantly is at
tracing new recruits. On one mission
or another he is journeyng about the
state all the time and it said that he
loses no opportunity for making
medicine"
Lapse of time does not lessen the
impression of RobertsOns followers
that he was in some wise euchered
out of the nomination in the last pri
mary and if anything they will be
more diligent in the next campaign
The fact that Robertson now is head
of the odd Fellows order in the
United States gives him additional
prestige.
Moreover. those who have been
watching the foam on the waves Of
politics in this state, assert that the
state administration has not been
able TO center upon one man for
whom it will stand sponsor in the
next campaign.
1t appears quite certain that Scott
Ferris will not stand as a candidate
for gubernatorial donors. He was not
inclined to do so in the first place,
and it is said that a special session
of the legislature is not regarded by
him as calculated to increase demo
cratic popularity.
Clarence Davis is said to be nursing
the gubernatorial bee, with the idea
of appearing as champion of the single
tax idea. Davis offered single tax
measure at the last Legislative SEES
sion II was much criticized as a
poorly drawn measure. Furthermore,
the single tax propaganda has not
developed into an issue in Oklahoma,
according to the political wiseacres.
other gubernatorial booms on the
democratic side of the political fence
are said to be waning.

In connection with tonight's an

ling loss to our troops" according to
the British version,

On the Austro-Italian front the ltal-

isolated battles in Montenegro
Greece, according to Berlin adyices,
