 GIANTS CON NTEST

Cincinnati. June 14-A c1oudburst deluged Redland Field in the last half of the third inning of the Red Giant combat yesterday afternoon, and when it stopped raining the field was in such condition that it was inn possible to continue.
 The score at the time was to 0 in favorS of the Reds, who had scored twice on errors by Burns and Robert son, together with four hits off Jeff Tesreau. Burns muffed an easy fly in the first inning, allowing Herzog to reach second base, and the Red lead, CT raced all the way home when Groh's infield roller escaped Lobert- Tn the second Robertson booted C1arke's drive to right field into a triple, and the batter scored on a wild pitch
 When the game was called Leach was on second base, with two out and Killifer at bat. Schneider was pitching strongly for the Reds. Rob ertson got a single in the second round, but that was the only innpr sion made on the big Red hurler. There was 9. big crowd out and the postp onement was a great disappoint- rnent to the fans, many of whom others were horsenen from Latonia,, who can get out only on Sunday. The game will be played off on August 5, the first day the Giants show here on their second western trip.

MANAGER OF CHICAGO CUBS AGGRIEVED AT
 q MEN PLAYER RULE

New York, June 14-Manager Bres- nahan fought stubborn1y against the reduction of the player limit in the National League to 21 men. He put up all sorts of arguments disapprov- ing it, but to no avail, as the club presidents were determined to re- trench, asserting that it was positively essential, as the business of the game seemed to be on the decline. Bresna- han, however contended that cutting the limit would hinder the leaders from developing youngsters and also from keeping men on the club who could be used in the event that play CTS were hurt or in a slum.
 The Cub manager is beginning to feel the effects of the 21 player limit, and at a time when he ought to be prepared for every emergency. He is not fortified with material should ac- cidents happen to any of his fieIders. If two should be rendered incapable at one time he would find it necessary to go to the outf1e1d or inf1eId and play one of the positions himself, as he has only Pete Knise1y and Polly McLarry as utility men.
 This is not the only case in which Bresnahan finds himself in a quand- ary. When a player is in a batting slump he is unable to yank him out for rest because he does not have any one to put in the batting order until the other man has recovered. If the old rule were still in effect, a1- lowing him to carry 25 players, he would have enough men to strength en his team.
 Cy Williams, who is one of the fast est outf1elders in the league, has tenn porari1y lost his batting eye and is not assisting the team in holding first place, but he cannot be emoved be- cause there is no one else to take his place and do better. Williams has gone through ten games in which he made only one hit, double. Prior to falling int othis slump, Williams was hitting the ball at a, 300 clip. As a result the Cubs were scoring more runs and the tall center fielder was doing his share in driving the runners to the plate.
 Bresnahan undoubtedly wilY have many other cases like Williams be- fore the season closes, as there is aI- ways time when a batter gets into 3, batting slump. Sometimes a, man will go weeks without getting two or more swats, but now he cannot be benched until he recovers from his slump, because of the few players the clubs are permitted to carry.
 It is not expected that Williams will continue in this rut now that the Cubs are to play at home for more will get in the morning, Bresna han thinks, will pull him up again and place him back on the list of sluggers.

Baseball's Birthday Recalls Great Changes
 In Twirling

This is basebal1's birthday-the six ty-ninth anniversary of the first reg ular baseball game between two, or ganized lcugos, the Knickerbockers and the New York Citys, played On the Elystan Fields of Jersey City, within the present city limits of Hoboken, on June 14, 1846. The KnicIzerbockers were the pioneers of. baseball, having been organized in 1845, and in that year they adopted the first code of rules governing the diamond game. The seventieth anniversary of the adoption of these rules will be ob- served next September, and the New York magnates are considering Spe- cial program for the day. September will also mark the semf-eentenary of the first international tournament for the worlds baseball championship, played in Detroit and won by a club representing Hamilton, Canada.
 The baseball fan of today would scarcely recognize his favorite pastime as it was played by the old Knicker- bockers hree-score-and-ten years ago. Of the rules adopted, the only one that has survived to the present is that re- ql1tring three 'touts'' before a team shall take the field. All the other reg u1atfons belong to the limbo of forgot ten things.
 | Of the muItitudfnous changes made in baseball in it's span of life, the most
 marked are to be found in the pitch ing department. Under present con ditions the principal object of the hufIer is to put the pellet where the batter doesn't want it. In the old days the reverse was true. and the slab artist tried to pitch to suit the swatter
 Consider a w111skered Tycobb of those days facing an ante-bellum Johnson, whose frontispiece is also decorated with spinach Says MT Cobb to MT. Johnson:
 ''I will take a fast one, waist high and right over the plate, if you please
 Under the old regime, the pitch. had to be made underhand, and it was not until the '70s that overland pitching was permitted. Hinder the rules of seventy years ago, which obtained when the Knickerbockers and the New York City club contested the first match game in Hoboken, the pitcher was perched behind a line forty live feet from the plate. The mission of the old slab artist was to put 'ena where the batter wanted 'em- No strike was called unless the batter swung, and the man with the bat might wait 'en out an hour if neces- sary until he got one that looked just right. In a game played about half century ago, between the Brooklyn Atlanttcs and the New York Mutuals, Al Smith of the former club pitched ffty-four balls to McKeevers of the Mutuals before a strike was called
 In 1863 new. rules were adopted which required the pitcher to stand perfectly still while delivering the ball, without taking a step forward and confined him to a box three by twelve feet At that, time call. balls were intro duced to prevent pitching wtldness. In 1867 the pitcher was pent uD in a

ANUSEHENTS
MsS M'ClEkM'S SMILE
 PERVADEs GOOD SHOW

Grace MacClean and an augmented company might be taken to mean en- thusiasm on any sort of an old opening night but in "A Woman's Way" at the Columbia last night. they-and cspec- tally she-received such an ovation as has seldom been witnessed in a Phoe- nix theater Flowers enough to fill an ordinary room, and candy and applause showered the new leading woman, who had been called good. and then had made good.
 In his distribution of parts for the newest offering, MT. Redmond was lucky. for in every character he pro duced a sympathetic interpreter In addition to Miss MacClean as leading woman, and Jack Livingstone as lead ing man, the company had last night Miss Charlotte Barrett and Miss Grace Scott, both well known to Phoenix au- diences and both very popular.
 Another cause for congratulation was the work of new scenic artist. Real ly, the production was a dandy from start to finish. But the perfectly cap tivating smile of the new deity per- vaded it all-and perhaps had some stimulating effect for all the abundance of appreciation that was displayed.

CONGRESS IN FINAL

considered may be made tomorrow by the senate republicans who warned the bill will be talked to death if again sent to the senate.
 Rural credits legislation, attached as a rider to the agricultural appropriation bill by the senate, was debated in the house until late tonight with Under wood assuring all sides there would be no adjournment until the measure was disposed of.
 The controversy is three sided. The senate rider would authorize the federal government, through national banks, to make loans on farm mortgages and would appropriate $10,000,00O to inaug- urate the system. As substitute to this plan, the house agricultural com mittee proposed the amended Hollis bill which would eliminate all government financial aid from the scheme and pro- vide for the organization of mutual loan associations among farmers and for the establishment of privately owned federal land banks in each federal re- serve district to loan money on farm mortgages through a local association. The third proposition would establish farm loan associations and federal land banks as under the Hollis measure but would authorize the secretary of the $50, 900 each year to purchase for the government the bonds of these banks.

Buy at Home" and Build Now" Campaigns Are Not Complete is Protest of Trades Council in Reso- lutiOns

As an outgrowth of the 'buy at home movement, comes the protest of the Phoenix Trades Council that there should also be a movement to employ at home" While the people are being urged to scorn the thick catalog, and to trade with local mer- chants, many workingmen are idle in Phoenix, while contractors and oth- CTS are sending to California for men with whom to build build now" houses and stores and things. The urge was reduced to writing and sent to the chamber of commerce by Secretary c. L. Timberlake of the Phoenix Trades Council
 The resolutions are as follows:
 WHEREAS, Business depression and industrial stagnation now prevailing throughout the land has brought hardship and suffering into many homes and particularly to those in Arizona, and the city of Phoenix, where wage workers suffer from lack of employment and their families from the want of the necessaries of life;
 WHEREAS, The Chamber of Com merce of this city has declared it's in tention to work for an improvement of home conditions and to that end is now conducting a campaign to en- courage home people to support with their patronage the products of home industries, be it
 RESOLVED, That we, the repre- sentatives of organized labor, in Trades Council assembled, not only commend the Chamber of Commerce for it's action, but pledge the mem bers thereof our earnest support and cooperation to the end that home industries, home labor and home busi- ness may be bettered
 RESOLVED, That a committee be appointed to call upon the secretary of the chamber of commerce to ar range methods for the cooperation of the Trades Council and the Cham Der of Commerce along lines which they believe will prove mutually bene- ficial.

GRANDMA NEVER LET
 HER HAIR GET GRAY
Kept her locks youthful, dark, glossy and thick with common garden
 Sage and Sulphur

When you darken your hair with Sage Tea and Sulphur. no one can tell, because it's done so naturally, so evenly. Preparing this mixture, though, at home is mussy and trou- blesome. For 50 cents you can buy at any drug store the ready-to-use tonic called "Wyett's Sage and Sul- phur Compound You just dampen a sponge or soft brush with it and draw this through your hair. taking one small strand at a time By morning all gray hair disappears, and. after another application or two. your hair becomes beautifully dark ened, glossy and luxuriant. You will also discover dandruff is gone and hair has stopped falling.
 Gray. faded hair, though no dis grace, is sign of old age. and as we all desire a youthful and attract i've appearance, get busy at once with Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur and look years younger.
