AT BAT HELPS TANKS
 WIN OVER TIGERS

Detroit, July 23-The Yankees and Tigers closed the present series with a thirteen-inning battle here yester- day afternoon, in which New York gained the verdict by to 5. The old reliable sueeze play by Marsans sent over the winning run in the thir- teenth and Al Walters added one for extra measure with a single through short which scored Hendryx from second base. Victory once more placed the Yankees in first division berth.
 Ray Caldwell and Bernie Roland were the original pitchers and both worked exceptionally before giving way to other ,boxmen. Roland went out of the game to let Sam Crawford hit in the eleventh and though Sam did not hit he drew the pass which tied up the game. Caldwell was re- lieved by Cullop when the Tigers came to bat in the twelfth.
 Joe Gedeon was in the Yankees lineup today for the first time this season. Maise1 has been hitting poor ly and as Gedeon has recovered en- tirely from the operation of last spring Donovan put him to work. He played a fine (game in the field and got double and single.
 The batting of Pipp, who had fail ed to hit safely in the first four games of the series. featured the game. He collected a triple, two doubles. g. sim gle and a pass in six trips to the plate. The Tigers began the scoring in the first inning. Bush started with a double to right. Witt sacrificed him to third, and he scored while Peck was throwing out Cobb at first.
 It was not long before the Tanks were back on even. terms. Pipp. the first man up in the secohd. tripled to centre and scored while Young and Heilman were retiring Baker. In the third Donovan's men added two runs to their score. Walters singled past Bush and went to third on Caldwells double to left. A freak squeeze play scored both runners. Gedeon bunted ball that was pitched high to him
 and he pushed it over Detroit's drawn in infield for a single. Both Walters and Caldwell counted.
 The Tigers not only tied the score in their half of the third, but picked
 up 8 one-run lead. With Stanage ou tof the way, Peck fumbled Boland'.

 bases. Veach then emptied the sack! with a. thump to right for two bases l This ended the scoring until thu
 eighth, when the Yankees tied up thu
 game. With two out Pop walked ant j he scored on successive singles b! I Baker and Marsans This run carried I the team up to the eleventh, whe1
 each pushed over a run. The Tan kees counted on Pipp's single, a. fum ble by Cobb, which gave Pipp an ex tra base, Bakers sacrifice, and hi I by Hendryx, who batted for Miller. l In Detroits half Caldwell walked I Crawford and Sam counted on tw' linfield outs and pinch hit by Burns

WHITE sox DON'T CRACK.


 Although mkny expected the White Sox to crack wide open in their series with the Red Sox they held up preGty well and this morning have a lead of 35 points over the Boston players. They won two gams, tied one and lost one. so it looks as if Chicago has a chance to get into the worlds series afser all Manager Barry of the Red Sox counted on g,t5- ting into the lead on the western trip. If he coud do that he figured his club would be able to get big lead in their long series on the Bos- ton grounds on the return from the West. But the White Sox fooled him.
 LAWRENCE GETS PITCHERS.
 Manager Jack Flynn of Lawrence has signed two good pitchers and thinks he can finish second in the Eastern league if not first. He has secured Cav from Buffalo of the In- ternational league, and Fuller, la tt year with Lawrence. Fuller was a good twirler in this circuit last year but has been. pitching semi-pro ball in Cleveland o.. this season
 Battling Levinsky and Jack Dillon are dusting off the scenery and g It. ting the costumes ready to put on their great ring drama again. The play has gone well in all parts of the country and a Boston promoter is willing to offer the boys a good purse to play a return engagement of 12 rounds in the Hub.

GIRL DISAPPEARS;

DAN BURROUGHS IN
JAIL.

Paragould, July 24.-Daniel Bur-
roughs, aged %, residing two miles
east of Marmaduke, this county, was
brought to this city and lodged in
Jail, charged with having knowledge
of the mysterious disappearance of
Miss Flossie Smith, aged Is.
The girl disappeared about 10 days
ago. She has made her home during
the past several years with the par
ents of Daniel Burroughs. Neighbors
began inquiring of the Burroughs
family as to the whereabouts of Miss
Smith, but they stated that they did
not know; that perhaps she was visit
ing relatives at Bard, six miles east
of this city. Inquiries by friends of
the girl revealed the fact that she
had not been seen in the Bard neigh
borhood.
The suspicious of the friends of the
girl were communicated to the coun-
ty officials and Deputy Prosecuting
Attorney Jeff Bratton swore out a
warrant for the arrest of the young
Young Burroughs insists that
he has no knowledge Of the disappear
ance of the girls and that he is being
held falsely.
1t is understood that neighbors in
the Marmaduke@ neighborhood are
making a thorough search for the
girl and that drainage canals are be-
ing dragged for her body. 1t is sus-
pected that she has either been MUIR
dered or met with an accident. Bur-
roughs will be held until a complete
investigation has been made.

1t is a bad practice to sleep in the
same undergarments one wears dur
ing the day, soaked with perspiration
as they often are. There are three
reasons against this: ~ because
such wet, soggy garments are ncom-
Portable; ca because they ire un-
healthful; and 90 because it makes
it necessary to wash an excessive
quantity of bed linen. Instead of this
uncomfortable and unwholesome prac-
tice, every farmer and farm laborer
should know the luxury and happi-
ness of taking a good bath when the
days work is finished and then put
ting on light summer pajamas, dry
and fresh, before going to bed.-Pro-

WORLDS BIG BATTLES
FOUGHT BY BOYS.

-" OO
War is truly the sport of youth.
Most of the worlds great battles
have been fought by boys. Reports
from France and Germany of the
young levies now going to the front
are calculated to make the observer
shake his head, but the record shows
that Waterloo, Gettysburg and many
another famous fight was lost and
won by boys under 20.
When Napoleon returned from Elba
to begin the reign of a hundred days
he raised an army more quickly and
under more unfavorable circumstances
than almost any mar before or since.
The best fighting stock of France
had been exhausted in 20 years of
war. Only the boys remained. Ma
poleon took the boys and made them
into soldiers who fought nobly at
Waterloo. And they were matched
against many soldiers just as young
as themselves in the ranks of Well
ington. The Napoleonic struggle had
told heavily on England as well as
France.
The Union and Confederate armies
had thousands of youngsters in their
ranks, ranging from 20 down to an
age that almost placed them in the
juvenile class. And this has been true
of every struggle since the beginning
of time. The Greeks had a saying
which the ages have proved true:
"Old heads for council, young heads

OPEN REBELLION S|NN FE|NERS
 ISFEARED

DUBLIN, Dec 5-The Sim Fein agi- tation continues to steam without boiling over into actual rebellion. The purpose of the Sim Feiners is alleged to be to keep the nerves of the, government on edge, to produce very dreadful deeds, and at suitable moments to provoke the government action as an evidence that England is holding down Ireland by force. Their notion is said to be that the military measures taken against them preju- dice England in neutral countries. and in Russia.
 The attitude of the military com manders is that it is their business to check anything that could facili- tate another armed revolt. The las, time they were caught mapping and besides, incurred formidable list of casualties in killed and wounded. The government had to pay three million pounds because it was obliged to ad- init responsibility for the failure to protect the lives and property of peaceful citizens. They are resolved that that shall not happen again That is why they have forbidden drill ing, or uniforms, or processions.
 A disciplined body of men march. ing in military formation, and train ed to the word of command, even if armed only with hurleys, could out master any local police force and con trol any town. Hence such process
