Jorge Busy in Myth Land.

Jorge's adventures, however. have
this disadvantage: His brother, Horatio
Casasus, Of SIS West End Avenue, says
they never occurred; says Jorge has
never been in Mexico in his life; says
that if Jorge don't get back 70 the
school in Denver he ran away from
four days ago he's going 10 get a treat,
i'm which a hickory CAD or halrbrush
will PLAY an active role. All OF which
Jorge may have some inkling Of, for he
hasn't appeared at the Waldorf since
yesterday morning.
But listen TO what happened TO Jorge
in Mexico according 70 jorge:
lie ran down TO Mexico City few
weeks ago TO see about a trivial bust
ness matter-quite trivial, in fact, since
IL only concerned few million dol
lars worth OF property the late am
bassador left. In Mexico City he
learned that an attempt would be made
to capture him and hold him for 81
100000 ransom. Added 10 this was the
Inconvenience Of having fabulous
price set on his head. Jorge decided to
absquatulate forthwith.

A Hero of Romance.

All Of which Jorge recited in detail
TO an applaudng group of listeners at
the hotel. What he forgot to tell, &C
cording to his brother was that he left
the Colorado School Of Mines, where
he was student, but four days ago,
and that all his Mexican adventures
must have happened while he snoozed
peacefully in d Pullman car that was
speeding eastward.
Hc neglected the formality, his
brother states, OF asking permission TO
leave school. For which neglect he
was severely taken TO task when he
held a stormy audience with Horatio
Casasus at the Waldorf Saturday af-
ternoon.

GAUZZA PEEVED AT
PALAIS ROYAL NINE

The following letter is self-explanatory.
Sporting Editor. Washington Herald.
Dear Sir:
A few days ago l noticed an article in
your paper in regards to the Nigilant
and Palais Royal game which was
played at Fifth and Florida avenue north
east.
Mr.. Shaab manager Of Palais ROYAL,
claims we did not defeat his team and
that he did not have all his members
on hand. To my knowledge he only
has about eleven players and eight of
them showed up not counting himself
and one in the hospital.
AS he made a remark that we play
a few innings for practice I would like
to state that we had all the practice
we wanted in five innings, only making
thirteen hits, nine of them for extra bases
and fourteen runs.
In regard to another game they can
have one in the next month. but not
fro pleasure. Let them put up not less
than SO and they can have another
practice game. -
Real game sports do not cry when they
are beaten, whether its in a practice
game or not Thanking you for your
valUble space. I remain,
Yours in sport,
VIC GAUZZA.

Wassman, Of Orange and Blue,
Has Best Of Pitching Duel
with Sergeants.
FLY COSTLY
BY JACK EASTER.

The first game of the high school series
for over two weeks was played yester-
day at the American League Ball Park.
Business getting to victory over the
Western High School team in a hard
fought game. The game started off as
though It would develop into a pitchers
battle with Wassman, of Business, and
Sergeant, Of Western, but before the con-
test was hve innings old the game de-
veloped into a slugging bee, with the
IStenogrsphers knocking sargeant's shoots
to all corners of the lot.
Neither side scored up to the fifth, but
in this frame Reech lead Off with single
to center. On Fayne's infsld tap KeeCh
died at second. Wassman singled through
short. but Payne was caught at the
plate. wassman taking second on the
throw in. Buck Wise singled to left,
scoring Wassman, taking second on the
throw in and went to third. while John
son singled to left. scoring a moment
later on Hawks single. Gerard hit fly
to Ansley but the latter mufred the ball,
Johnson and Hawk scoring on the mis-
play. Gerardi died at third trying TO
steal. ending the inning.
Not to be outdone, the westerners
started after Wassman in their half OF
the sixth, and before the dust has cleared
had showed four runs across, tying the
score. AnsIey opened the inning with a
double to left and scored when Sinclair
poked a single to left. Sinclair took third
on Watts single to center and scored on
Peines infield tap. Watt and Peine both
scored on Whelchelrs single to center.
This ended the scoring for Western in
this inning
Western added two more runs in the
eighth when Peck singled to center and
| took second on Whelchells out. Stevens
singled to right, scoring Peck, the former
taking second on the throw-in, and scored
when Sergeant sent bingle to left. This
rally put them two runs to the good.
Business won the game in the eighth
Hawk opened the frame with a single
stole second and scored when Gerard
| bumped single to deep left. Toots
| Wise singled to right. sending Gerard to
! third. Junghans scratched a single to
| the inheld, Gerard scoring, but Toots
Wise overran second and was out
Junghans stole second and scored the
deciding run when Payne singled sharply
to right. making the count to 6.
Western proved easy picking to Wass-
man in the ninth, the lanky stenogra pher
striking out Sinclair, Watt and Peine in
the order named, ending the game
Gerard not only was responsible in a
great way for the offensive strength of
his team, but contributed a fancy catch
in the second when he went back into
left field and pulled down Peck's sure
! single, the catch bringing rounds of ap-
| plause from those present Hawk robbed
Hout OF sure triple when he grabbed
the fast flying ball. this catch being one
of the greatest seen in the high school
series for some time.
