second Dixie Carroll drew pass and
the bags were damned. Polly McLarry
swung at two balls, and then singled
by Wano at first, scoring Lewis and
high, with Carroll reaching third.
This marked the end of Masters. JON
nard relieved him and proceeded to
let loose a wild pitch that struck the
plate and bounded to the stands, Car
roll walking over the pan and McLarry
going to second. Bischoff doubled to
the left field dump and McLarry scored.
Blades stood like a statue and allowed
himself to be called out on strikes, and
Jonnard tossed out Collenberger.

but McGinnis beat it out, with Brottem
holding second The double steal was
then staged, Brottem stealing third and
McGinnis second.
Kid Zoellers went in to bat for JON
nard and he stood still and was called
out on strikes. George Distel was also
up there, and he did precisely the same,
taking the 80 count and then watching
the third strike be called without Of
fering.
Scrappy Moore, the luckiest stiff in
the league, when it comes to getting
on base, hit fly ball to left that fell
between Harry Collenberger and Dixie
Carroll, to start the eighth. Carroll
was there ready to receive it when
Collenberger backing up, interfered,
with the ball falling safely between
them. Harper then forced Moore at
second, and Miller followed with
terrific crash into the left field bleach

ahead of him. Hunter singled to CEN

TRAVELLERS WIN IN NINTH.

In the ninth Brottem opened with a
one-base clout to left. McGnnis hit
an. easy hopper to High, who had Brot-
tenn easily at second, but High threw
the ball high and wide through Lewis,
and the pill rolled into right center,
with Brottem reaching third and Nc
Ginnis second on the error Kohlbecker
batted for Yellowhorse, who had sue
ceeded Jonnard to start the eighth
against Memphis, and Kohly fouled out
to McLarry.

Marshall pitched high to Distel in an
effort to break up the squeeze, but
Distel reached high into the air and
hunted ne ball toward the box, going
out at first as Brottem came over with
the tying run.

the winning run when Marshall let

AUTOMOBILE MEN HAVE NO FEAR

DR FRANK CRANE. who writes
II for the New York Globe, says.
That the apex OF high prices

now about TO begin an era Of falling
prices cannot be seriously disputed.
There are three principal reasons
Why business men and economists

Trucks
Beat Railroads,
Says Circus Man

Trucks vs.. railroads, trucks win,
hands down. is the way William
Todd. proprietor Of Todd's travelling
tented circus and vaudeville aggrs-
cation. puts It, in writing to l. H
] Thompson. OF The Southern Border
Motor company, distributor Of Repub-
ilic trucks in FL Paso-
! Mr.. Todd says that motor trucks az
[ ford him a very great advantage in
1.-The saying Of time and labor. Now
with the use Of motor trucks, these
items are only about one third Of
what they used 10 be when he moved
his circus and paraphernalia by train
Instead Of loading the tents and
other properties on wagons, then
transferring them 10 a train, and at
destination unloading from train TO
wagons and again unloading at the
show grounds. all Mr.. Todd does now
is load his feet OF Republic motor
trucks. drive TO, the next exhibition
ground. unload without any trans
fering. and prepare for the shows
opening
Unlike most show troupes. Todd's
circus has no serious difficulties by
way Of transportation. Indeed,
through the installation Of q fleet OF
Republic trucks. the circus lays out
its own time tables and is quite in
dependent Of railroads. II is not
vexed by the usual delays waiting for
trains and its movements are never
impeded by wrecks or other railroad
accidents
Immediately after the show closes
the trucks are loaded and a qquick
start made so that 20 or 50 miles may
be covered during the time which is
usually spent in waiting by other
shows which depend upon railroad
transportation
M Todd is most enthusiastic over
motor transportation and is convinced
that the time and labor saved alone
have more than paid for the operation
and maintenance OF his fleet Of
trucks.

Ostrich Plumes.

Ostrich plumes are not actually
plucked, by the way. They are cut
pruned with no damageIor pain to the
bird. When the feathers are "ripe"
the ostriches are driven into "
shaped enclosure. Their heads are
covered with a hood like a stocking,
which renders them tractable. The
wings are spread by the man doing
the "plucking" and the feathers are
clipped of fairly close TO the flesh.
This does not hurt the bird In the
least and within sixty days the dead
quill ends drop out Of their own ac-
cord. The tail feathers are also
clipped.
