Jimmie Dunno, writing in the Grand
Rapids News, tells fish story on
Nike Hauser, which, he says, Lefty
Gilbert told him and which Karl
Meyers, trea surer of the Richmond
club, vouches for. The yarn runs
as follows:
When it's bad baseball weather, ball
players usually talk fishing, the war,
golf or the fair sex, and out of one of
these indoor rainyweather sessions
that are such a bore to the diamond
performers came a fishing story-a
good one. 1t has to do about the in
PRODUCTION of Mike Hauser, catcher
for the Richmond team, to wall-eyed
pike.
Several days ago, during the series
in Muskegon, Red" Ainsworth. Frank
Gygli. Hauser and Karl Meyers, treas
urer of the club, decided to go fishing.
Hauser was the novice in the party,
and his companions determined that
his initial trip should be filled with
plenty Of excitement.
Fish From Bridge
The party took an automobile and
elected to fish from a bridge, keeping
the auto standing nearby. After a
few minutes, Ainsworth got a bite. y
He struggled, while Mike looked on
fascinated, and finally, after desperate
work, pulled up a pike. 1t was about
Is inches long. Remember, this Is
told by Rufus Gilbert, and, therefore
it is judicious to entertain a reason
able amount of doubt as to the verac
ity of the yarn.)
Well, Ainsworth landed the fish and
called to Hauser to take it off the
hook. 1t was explained that this was
one of the things the beginner must
always do when he is out on a fishing
expedition Mike was willing, and
took tht big fellow off the hook and
placed him in the automobile. His at
tention was called to a spot farther
along the bridge, where Gygli thought
| he had bite, and he hurried over
only to be called back to where Mey
ers was Juggling at his line. With a
great sweep, he pulled it up, and on
/ the hook was another pike-alsC
about Is inches long, Rufus says.
Repeats Operation
Hauser removed it and repeated the
operation of putting it in the automo
bile. In a minute, Gygli called out tc
| Mike to help him. He had landed one

Fouike Speaks.
The gift OF the flag to Perry town
ship was made by William Dudley
Foulke, who spoke in Perry at the
orening Of the campaign.
II must say said Foulke, that
the spirit evinced by that one small
community is worth of the emulation
Of the world. The spirit of Perry
township would be an inspiration to
any human being. l knew they had it
there, but | did not think they had
quite SO much.
The s100,000000 raised for the Red
Cross is the largest single benevolence
which has ever been raised by any
community since the beginning of
time. But even yet, this nation is not
awake"
Foulke then showed why Germany,
instead of staggering, is at the very
zenith of her fighting powers today
He said that the German dream CT
Pan-Germanism is accomplished, and
that she has much to lose before being
beaten.
Speaking of the English-American
relationship. he said that the spirit OF
the two nations was Fundamentally
the same, and that the foundations oil
their liberties were the same.

Games Today.
Richmond at FIT. Wayne CD.
Dayton at Muskegon.
Springfield at Grand Rapids.
Evansville at South Bend.

Not a game was played in the Cen
trail league yesterday. BY an arrange
ment made some time ago, consented
10 by Richmond, but never announced
to the press by the local management.
Fl Wayne played an exhibition game
with the Pittsburgh Nationals yester-
day instead of playing the scheduled
game with Richmond. The other
games were postponed on account OF
rain.
For the past two weeks Rufe Gilbert
and his fighting Quakers have battled
daily, winning ten games and losing
four and yesterdays vacation was
welcomed by all the boys. They sat
in the stand at FIT. Wayne like regular
fans and saw the tail-end Central
leaguers defeat the tail-end National
leaguers, 3 to 0 In six innings, when
rain called halt to the pastime.

The Quakers rooted for the Chiefs
Yesterday but today they went on the
warpath after them and expect to cop

ing as it is now. Wise ones also de-
clare that if he was not fast enough
for Bridgeport he will not be able to
rect the pace in the Central.
Rupe is Boosted.
BY the way, the press in the various
cities of the Central circuit no longer
regard the Quakers as jokes. They now
refer to the locals as one of the decid-
ing factors in the pernant chase, and
Rufus Gilbert is being called the mir
rcie man of the Central league.
What appeared to be a team OF only
ordinary ability has become, under the
spur OF Gilbert, dashing, fighting out
fit feared and respected by every club
IN the league.
The Quakers return from their long
road trip Saturday night and will play
& double-header at Exhibition park,
Sunday afternoon, with Evansville.
The Quakers and Evas also perform
here next Monday and Tuesday, then
they go to Evansville for two games
on Wednesday, the Fourth of July.

ty by 56s. He carried the same county
in 1914 by 124, AID in 1916 he lost 1t
by 1874.
Franklin county has always been re-
ported as the staunch Democratic coun-
ty of the Sixth district Mr. Gray. In
1912, carried it by 1905. He carried II
in 1914 by sol, and in 1916 he increased
his plurality to 706 At that time Mr..
Gray was posing as a pacifist. He
voted against the Presidents prepared
ness policies.
Drift is Away from Gray.
Another strong Democratic county n
the Sixth district is Hancock Mr.
Gray got that county in 1912 by 1887
votes. In 1914 he carried the county
by 1,225. In 1916 the same county by
500, which is 1,410 fewer than in 1912
and 1913 fewer than in 1914, and the
drift in Hancock county is away from
him.
For years and years Henry county
was regarded as one of the banner Re-
publican counties of Indiana 1t has
given Republican plurality of 1900
In 1912 MIR. Gray lost that county by
112. In 1914 he lost it by 109 In
1916 he lost it by 341
Rush county is a strong Republican
county. On national issues it never
went Democratic. Lon Null, of Ma
nilla, one of the most popular Demo
Gratis. carried it for the legislature.
But Gray carried it in 1912 by 453. In
1914 he lost it by nine votes In 1915
he lost it by 351
Shelby is Democratic.
Shelby is another county of the Sixth
district that the Democrats like to
boast about. In 1911: Mr. Gray car
ried it by 2,310. In 1914 he carried it
1878, or decreased majority of 9a2.
In 1916 he carried it by $50
Union county is a little fellow and
never broke its Republican record ex-
cept once, and that was in 1912. when
Finly III. Gray carried it by fourteen.
but in 1914 Mr.. Gray lost ii by fifty
seven, and he lost it again by 1876 in
1916
Wayne County's Vote.
At one time Wayne county gave a
Republican plurality of 200. But in
1912 it broke all its previous records
and gave Gray plurality of 1926. In
1914 Gray carried it again, but by only
1913, a falling off of 1857. But in 1915
Wayne county went back to its old
form. Mr.. Gray lost it by 1,196.

Mike Hauser is Introduced to
Wall-Eyed Pike by His Teammates

This fish also was about Is inches
long, Rufus says.
Mike removed it and tossed it into
the automobile. He sat down to rest.
and in a few minutes was called to
aid RED" again. Up came another
pike. This one, too, measured Is
inches, Rufus says.
After taking the baby" as Red"
calls the fish, off the hook, Mike de-
cided that, inasmucfn as there were
four in the party and four fish had
been caught, it would be good idea
to quit, SO he jouneyed over to the
car to look the prize catch over
Mike Let's Out Whoop
AS he climbed the running bord
and looked into the machine, Mike let
cut a whoop and nearly fell into the
lake. The fish were gone. Yep, all
but one. Mike began a search, and
was filled with fear lest his mates
charge him with the loss, in view OF
the fact that he had been appointed
custodian of the fish After a fruit
less search, he decided to face call
ing" and turned around to find the
fishermen laughing Historically. And
then the joke was explained.
The prize pike had been purchased
downtown and brought along to catch
as often as it could be replaced on a
hook and dropped into the water, and
every time Mike put it in the car one
of the other three would remove il
and drop it back into the water.
Mike also tried to bail out bait
box during the stay in Muskegon, and
now he claims he is UP on all the
tricks and, therefore, full-fedged
fisherman.

Elliott To Win Wayne.
There is every reason to believe that
Richard n. Elliott, the Republican
Nominee, will carry Wayne county. In
fact this is conceded by Democratic
campaign managers. There is also in
Gications that Elicit will carry the
district by substantial majority. Re-
ports at noon today from reliable
sources placed Fayette, Henry, Rush,
Union and Wayne counties in the Ell
lott column and indicated moderate
EIuralities for Gray in Hancock, Fran
kiln and Shelby counties.
The results of the last three con-
gressional elections show a steady de-
cline in Democratic strength, result
/ ing in a Republican victory last fall,
when Judge Comstock, the Republican
nominee. received plurality of 499
over Finly H. Gray. A poll of the dis
trict the last two weeks indicates that
it is strongly Republican today as it
was last November.
In 1912 Gray was elected by a plur-
ality of $40, carrying every county
except Henry, which went Republican
b. only 112. In 1914 Gray was again
elected, but this time by plurality

election for congressman, the Sixth

of the district in 1914 was 44.341, a
