PRESS COOP CHATTER
BY MURRAY.

Anderson is due to go against
Muskegon today.
Bowman had won six straight
games and would have had TO so
nine scoreless innings to beat the
worlds record held by Walter
Johnson.
Muskegon wasn't hitting the ball
very hard. but they sent a run
across in each of the four innings
when they managed TO hit safely.
Brubaker pulled a life-saver when
ne got Grodick's grounder and toss
ed him out at first for the third out
with three men on the paths.
Bratchie of the visitors had a
perfect day with two doubles. a
run and a walk in four trips to the
plate.
ON Saturday Fischer remarked
that he couldn't hit on the local
grounds. Yesterday ne got only
three infour trips TO the plate.
Joe Stanley out in center had a
busy day with five put outs. Most
of the drives were high and he had
plenty of time TO get under them.
Fischer the visiting first sacker
had a rather quiet day with three
put outs. one assist and one error.
Bowman fattened his batting
average while he was losing his ball
game. He got two hits in four trips
and was credited with a sacrifice
one of these hits i'm the sixth would
have helped matters.
Hensling's triple rolled back in
the rig Il field fence corner but bet
ter fielding on the part of Coveleskte
would have held the Bender to two
sacks
Both center fielders were credited
with assists Stanley caught Bash
ans who tried to take third on an
over throw and Bashang's throw
caught Bratchie who tried to go
from first 10 third on a single.
Bea' was doing some good guess
ing on balls and strikes and got
two walks in four trips

BOWMAN SOLD TO
CINCINNATI CLUB
Showing Made During Last
Two Weeks Wins Abe Sec
ono Chance in Show.

Announcement of the sale of Abe
Bowman TO the Cincinnati National
league club was made Monday by
Owner Ed Smith of the local team.
The purchase price was $4,000.
Bowman's work in the last six
games he hurlC1 previous 10 Sun
days contest. won him his second
chance i'm the big show. Abe had
hurled one one-run game and five
no-run games up to Sunday Three
Of these games were three-hit af-
fairs. two fve-hit contests and one
q two-hit contest.
Jesse Tannehill. scout for the
Reds. saw Abe in action at Dayton
when ne BANKED the Vets and did
not allow a hit until the ninth inn
ing. He recommended that Abe be
purchased and the deal was begun
Immediately.
Early in the season Bowman was
troubled with a bad wrist aud while
he pitched good baseball. he had
plenty of tough luck, as hobbies or
failure TO hit on the part OF the
home club kept him from winning
when he did hold the enemy to a
few runs.
Abe had made a record Of As con
secutive scoreless innings and went
out Sunday 10 beat his record. A
stolen base 10y Fischer which was
followed by a double, ended Abe's
string.
Bowman had FIVE Of the nine men
on the Muskegon club stopped.
Fischer and Brtachie hit the ball
like fends. while Whelan and Bru-
baker horned i'm with a hit apiece
Fischer scored three of the runs
made while Bratchies war club
drove Fischer over twice.
Friends of Bowman are expecting
him 20 stick in the big show. Abe
is a willing worker and is always
ready TO pitch an extra game if
necessary. He shut out Evansville
twice in three days.

It's a Go-The Railroad.

To satisfy the many interested in
securing the railroad to Columbia we
make the following statement: The
road will be built As heretofore stat
ed, the line of least resistance is most
likely to secure it and therefore nee
eSsary preparation to secure the right
OF way is important The preliminary
surveys will be made in the near future
and as soon as practicable thereafter
the locating line, or final survey, will
be made aDd actual construction work
begun. The route first to present the
most favorable condition in the right
OF way will uDQueStionably have a
strong lead over others and to be plain
and fair to ALL We advise you to secure
every concession needed along the line
and through the section you desire
the road, or to know exactly what
they will cost and The amount of finan-
cial aid that will be given on the line
to pay for same The building and
operating road in any country is no
trifie. 1t means too much for your
business and convenience and increase
in the value of your land and products
to permit it to miss you when it posi-
bly, could be secured at reasonable eff
fort and expense
The time is short for action for the
parleys between the contracting par
ties are practically past and the work
will soon begin. Don't get it in your
mind that it is coming this way mere
lY because you believe it the best way,
but tbecauSe you will secure the rightsof
way and produce the evidence of good
faith, good will and merit. Tnen,
above all, don't think that it will
finally fail for that is not on the
bill of fare. AS above stated, the road
will be built, not merely because we
want it, but because We put up the
inducements.

they were riding was overturned and
its occupants were thrown out, and
they rolled 80 or 40 feet down the
steep embankment The horse and
conveyance also went over the hill.
Their escape is miracle, because if
either horse or buggy had lolled over
them the chances are both would have
been killed. But through the inter-
Vention of miracle DR.. Crawford
and wife came through the accident
almost without scratch, the buggy,
which was capsized, being upside down
on tree stump and the horse, which
rolled to the lower side of corn field,
was only slightly injured.
This is said to be the same place
where Charles York and wife met
with similar accident a few weeks
ago Pike County News.
