Ting II Innings-Score 8 to 2.

Chicago, May 21.-Chicago and Bos-
ton played the longest game of the sea-
son today, the former winning 8 to 2
after IL innings. Incidentally, this
was Faber's seventh straight victory.

doubled and Quinlan was hit by a
pitched ball. Schalk beat out a hit and
Daily batted for Faber with the bases
filed. He singled to left and Weaver

but when Russell weakened the visitors
tied up the count. Faber replaced
Russell and pitched a grand game with
excellent support behind him. Mays
also pitched mastery ball until the
fatal last inning after replacing Shore
in the eighth.
Speaker was ordered out of the game
by Umpire O'Loughlin for arguing a
decision at first base. Hoblitzel was
spiked by Schalk when the latter was

tire.

DANNY Auain in shane.

Danny Murphy is again in shape and
ready to step in at any moment. Thou
sands of fans do not realize what a
valuable man Danny is to a ball club,
because he has only been sent in to
pinch hit once this year. Neverthe
less, the former captain of the Ath-
letics is playing a position that re-
quires the best of judgment as well as
ability to perceive quickly the slightest
loophole for success. In other words,
with Danny Murphy as third base
coacher Lee Magee has the one best
bet in any league. The veteran has
not missed a game there this season,
and in all this time he has not made
one mistake. His excellent judgment
has aided the team in winning several
close battles.

Deepest Well a Failure.

IAN artesian we'll mile deep was
sunk in Texas at little place called
Spur" said A. F. Wells, of Waco, ac-
cording to the Washington Post. THE
promoters who spent the money to
drill the hole lost big sum, and the
only thing they got was a symptom of
water. They were not so lucky as
Bret Harte's hero. who tried for wa
ter and got oil.
This we'll. it is said, cost the pro-
jectors more than $4,000. They
made the boring because they ex-
pected to increase the value of great
big tract of land wich had been
opened up. That we'll, l believe. is
the deepest ever bored in any part
of the United States, and it didn't
yield. There is a we'll not far from
Waco that is pouring forth a great
stream of pure water, which reached
a depth of more than 3,500.feet. I'm
til that we'll was drilled Waco held
the record for depth with half doz-
en- borings that exceeded 5000 feet"
