couldn't finish, Kallio pitching the last
two innings.
Wally Kinney started his first game
for Mack in long stretch of time and
got away with it until the eighth,
when he wobbled. Scott Perry was
rushed from the dugout and he went
to the hill for the first time since June
5. Scott pitched good ball despite the
trouble in the ninth, for it was not
entirely his fault that Shorten and
Bush got as far as third and second,
respectively.
Kinney's Hit Winning Blow
| KINNEY deserved the victory, despite
AA the fact that he had to be relieved
by Perry. He started a two-run rally
in the third with a single and his one
base blow in the sixth put over what
proved to be the winning counter.
Kinney pitched great ball up to the
eighth. The Detroit run gathered in
the first was tainted. In the second,
third, fourth and sixth he put tie
Tigers down in order, and from the first
to the eighth no one got any farther
than second.
Jim McAvoy's bat also had lot to
do with the Detroit defeat. James
cleaned the sacks when there were
three on in the sixth with triple that
hugged the right field foul line. He
later scored on Kinney's one base rap

The Wonders Of America
THE AMERICAN DEAD SEA.
By T. T. MAxEY

IF YOU can imagine a lake 100 miles
l long, % miles wide, with an average
depth of 20 feet-60 feet Is the great
est depth recorded-almost 1000 miles
inland and 1880 feet above sea level,
you can form some conception Of this
world marvel-Great Salt lake. 9
Its waters are six times as salty as
the ocean. Put FIVE bucketfuls in a
tank, let 1t evaporate and one bucket
full of pure salt will be left. A bath
in its buoyant waters Is both delight
fuI and exhilarating. SaItair-an I'm
mense, crescent-shaped, domed and
lowered bathing pavilion-has been
built out into the lake 1000 feet from
shore. re tf~v
The lake contains eight islands. -Four
rivers empty fresh water into 1t, but
its surface neither rises nor falls. Hav-
ing no outlet, it gets rid of the excess
water by evaporation. t-@ ~ elf
Scientists figure that the lake con-
tains more than s.00O0OO,OOO tons Of
salt and almost SOOOOO,0OO tons of sui
2hate Of Soda. Allowing 60 tons to a
rarload. that would be 1879, 933, 1888 cars
of salt and 1888, 333 cars of soda.
Assuming 40 feet as the average length
of freight car and you have train
of salt 1,010101 miles long and a train
of soda 101 ,010 miles long. The aver
age speed Of a freight train is about 20
miles an hour. Running at this speed,
day and night, 1t would take the two
trains over six years to pass a given
poiEt. The value Of these cargoes
would 6e probably $10,000,O00O0O.
