Dodgers Swamped
By Reds, l3-O, and
Get Only Two Hits

CINCINNATI, Aug. T. While "Hod"
Eller was holding the Brooklyn Dodg
ors to two puny singles the leading
Reds to-day evened accounts for the
setback of yesterday by smothering the
visitors under score Of 13 10 o Bur
leigh Grimes and Clarence Mitchell
were pounded for sixteen hits
Eller twirled one of his best con-
tests since joining Moran's club. he
struck out six batsmen, issued 40
passes and only twenty-eight batsmen
faced him. Ward laced out the first
hit off Eller in opening the third. while
Hi Myers, whom Moran is still dicker-
ing for, got the other in the eighth.
Only three Brooklyn runners reached
first, but TWO Of them were annihil1ted
on double plays.
Grimes was treated uumercifu,'y
during MS siv-inning stay on the
mound. TIE Reds smashed him for
fourteen hits, while Mitchell was lucky
to escape being scored upon.
Sherwood Magee returned to the
Cincinnati lineup after long en-
forced rest and showed that he siill
had his batting eye by getting two
hits.

NEW YORK SOCIETY
GIRL IN PICTURE
Many Seen With Elsie ferguson in
''The Avalanche"

1t is not often that society girls of
New York consent to appear in a mo-
ton picture, but score of the daugh-
ters of the idle rich will be seen in
some of the scenes of Elsie Fer
guson's new Aircraft picture. "The
Avalanche" which will be display ed
at the Nogales Theatre today.
In the gambling scene, in addition
to more than one hundred persons
employed to appear, a score or more
of handsomely gowned and bejewelled
society girls of New York who had
called at the studio, consented to
mingle with the others during the
Shooting" Of the scene. Although
the young women worked" under
the direction of George Fitzmaurice,
not one of them bothered to accept
the pink slip indicating the amount
they were to receive for their efforts
and to which they were entitled the
same as ordinary supernumeraries.
"The Avalanche" is delightful
photoplay and presents Miss Fer
guson in three distinct roles. The
theme treats of the hereditary taste
for gambling which the heroine has
inherited. The support is excellent.

MARSH HEIGHTS
LAST NIGHT

During temporary absence of the
family yesterday evening the resi-
dence of Mr.. and Mrs. B. M. Ashby
on Marsh Heights, was entered and
robbed of a few articles of consider
able value.
When Mrs. Ashby returned home
from short stay down town she de-
tected at once that the house had
been robbed, and she telephoned the
police station as once. Officer Saxon
went over and made investigation.
Mrs. Ashby related that when she
returned home she found her rooms
in considerable confusion. Bureau
and ciffioner drawers were pulled out
and contents mu led over, papers
scattered about, and garments scat
tered about. Checking up it was
noted that a pistol some silk under
clothing and few other things were
missing.
The robbery last night was the
fourth of that kind within a couple
of weeks-pistols, silk underwear,
silk waists jewelry and delicate stuff
left. The other three were the homes
of messrs. M. T. McCleary, John

BELIN, (By Mail. 1.-The new re-
Ipublic is finding selection of diplo
mats a real job. Of course, it ISM
entirely necessary that German!
make out a whole slate of ambassa
doris and ministers just yet, particu

such an event, to send out charges
and consuls-the charge perhaps be-
ing the man intended for the higher
post of minister or ambassador when
full diplomatic relations with the out
side world are resumed.
sdifficulty arises from the
fact that some of the men of the old
diplomatic service would be persona
non grata at certain capitals, while
the new regime so far has not pro-
duced many big prospects of ambas-
sadorial size.
So far, connection with the Ameri-
can ambassadorship, only two names
