last appearance in the city, when
they lost to the Nebraska Power Co.
at Thirty-second and Dewey avenue
by 9 to 7 score, and promises the
fans real treat this afternoon.
Marty is still undecided whether he
will pitch or not. He has signed a
new hurler and is keeping under
cover to spring against the leaders,
should this gent arrive in time.
Butch" Hay, known as the "strike-
out" twirler, no doubt will heave
them over the rubber for the
Murphy's.
To Break Tie.
As a preliminary to the Brandeis-
Murphy battle, the Townsend Gun
company and the Omaha Printing
Company Juniors will break the tie
for first honors in the Gate City
league. Each team has lost but one
game thus far this season and are
also even in the series, defeating
each other once.
Both teams are confident of win
ring and have been practicing hard
for this battle. The gunners have
been somewhat crippled on account
of their crack hurler, Joe Ort, hav-
ing his ankle sprained, several
weeks ago in the twilight game
against the Printing Company
Juniors, but Manager John Satrapa
stated last night that he will prob
ably send Ort to the firing line, as
the youngster is anxious to hurl the
said contest. In an effort to win
this battle Manager Cruickshank of
the Juniors will send Chleborad, his
star slab-artist to the mound, with
Pete Kliene, former manager and
pitcher of the Daily News team and
Elmer Johnson. former crack hurler
of the Nancy Milling company, who
last week signed up with his team,
in reserve.
This contest should prove fast
and snappy throughout as both
teams have displayed some wonder
full base ball and sensational fielding
thus far this season. The game will
start at 1:30 o'clock.
Other games in the Gate City
league are as follows: The Her
mansky Pharmacys clash with the
Reno Billiard Parlors, formerly the
Originals, at Luxus park and the
Beselins meet the Mckinney Den
fists at Thirty-second and Dewey
avenre.
To Settle First Place.
First place in the American league
will be settled on the battlefield at
Thirty-second and Dewey avenue
at $50 o'clock, when the Riggs OPP
teal and the Paxton-Vierlihgs cross
bats. Both teams have lost but two
games thus far this season and have
run neck-to-neck race. Beers,
who has been pitching gllt-edge ball
for the Paxton-Vierlings this sea-
son is slated to do the heaving this
afternoon, while James Baumgard-
ner will no doubt be no the firing
line for the Optical lads.
Both Beers and Baumgardner are
pair of twirlers hard to beat in
the American league and from all
indications a pitchers battle should
result Favorites of both teams are
banking their cash heavily on the
outcome of the battle. Neither
manager would predict the outcome
of the battle but their only state
ment last night was "Lets hope the
best team wins"
The Sample-Harts and the Uni
versa1 Motors will stage their COM
bat at Miller park, $50 p. m. and
it is predicted that hard fought
game will be witnessed, as consid-
cradle rivavly exists between them.
Manager Shields of the Universals
has strengthened his lineup and is
confident that his warriors will be
at the large end of the score when
the battle is over.

OUR GENERAL OF NO RETREAT

A Washington correspondent OF the
World discovers belief in the under
standing declared by Former Presl-
dent Taft that Maj. Gen. Robert Lee
Bullard was the American officer
who at the Marine. July Is, departed
with regret from the counsel OF the
French commander and, after tenn
porary setback, order counter at
tack. His men, this officer said.
would not understand not being ask
ed to re-establish their position
If this story of action was true,
Secretary Baker said at the first re-
port the American officer would no
doubt be court martialed, but pro-
NOTED. Mr. Taft admitted the SAVIOR
of INSTRUMENTATION. but sound justi-
fication in brilliant success.
Thus far the story itself remains
without contradiction. Some day,
presumably, we shall have official
confirmation, along with authorita-
tive naming of the officer in the
case. If Gen. Billiard was really the
man at the Marine, he has added
brilliancy to the record of a North
Carolina family already known t2
the fighting annals of the republic.
At one stroke he upset enemy plans
and set up fresh standard or
American valor-the valor of men
who found retreat uncomfortable.
AS to the point of INSTRUMENTATION
- t..
The impulsive hero of the story re-
fers to Counsel and not to COM
mand. Quite probably it was in no
sense an order which he failed to fo'-
low. but only advice founded in the
French sense of enconomy in men.
1t does not appear that he paid ex-
travagahtly for his gallant retrievai
of position. Great results and an en-
during fame for himself and his sol
diers are his compensation.-New

SAVING THE suNkEN SHIPS

Most welcome is the announcement
from London that since January,
1915, 407 ships sunk by the Germans
in British waters have been salvag-
ed; 157 of them by improved meth
DDS, in five months of the past year.
Britain's coast, like our own, is
edged by a broad belt of shallow
water. For 200 miles of the chan
nel's length no spot reaches a depth
of 100 fathoms; much of it is quite
shallow, which accounts for the chop
that makes so many who cross it
briefly unhappy.
From our own Norfolk one gets
well out of sight of land before
reaching water too deep for salvage
operations. Depth increases more
rapidly off the Irish coast. but even
the Lusitania lies near the so fathom
line, below the shatter of the storm,
yet near enough to the surface so
