THIRD WARD WINS.
Tenth Ward Loses Poorly Played
Game to Pcnnant Winners;
Game Between Married
and Single Men.

Third Ward clinched the Defiance pen.
nant last night by defeating Tenth Warc
by the score Of 16 to 2. The game was the
poorest exhibition played on the field
this season and crowd of about 500 was
disappointed. Tenth Ward appeared on the
field without a battery, which caused the
slovenly exhibition. It is likely that both
Lowell and Hynson will never think
themselves pitchers again, for both men
were hit for a total of Is hits in four
innings, Third Ward knocking them to
all corners of the lot.
Clarke took up the pitching burden
in the fifth and held the Third Warders in
the remaining three innings. Last night s
game was the last game of the Twilight
League and hereafter only frst-class
uniformed teams will appear at Third
and Adams streets. Manager Shields of
the Defiance All-Stars has already started
to arrange hard schedule for his pro-
tcges and has booked the crack Harlan
Giants for mex. Wednesday and baseball
much better than last nights exhibition
will be presented to the fans of the west
side.
Tonight the married men and single
men of the club will have game and
many old timers will be seen in action.
Manager Sam Alexander of the married
men has a flock of old timers under his
wing for the game and expects to take fall
out of his unlucky brethren. Charles
Farley, skipper of the single men, also
has some good talent, he too having
many old time ball tossers. II is not
known definitely who the battery will be
but it is likely that Joe Holveck will pitch
for the married men with Salmon Shields
behind the plate, while Mike McCauley
will likely shove them across for the other
teams, with Corrall behind the stick.

HOW THE TIDES ARE CAUSED.

For long time it has been known
that tho moon il large factor in caus-
ing the tides, but il was not known until
much later that the gun also is factor
There are two principal tides during
each season--tho so-called "spring' tides
and the "ncap" tides. The spring tides
are the high tides, and the neap tides
those which arc especially low. The high
tides occur during the new moon and, Of
course, the moon, being 80 much nearer
the eavth, has q greater influence than
the sun. The theory in n few words is
simply this: When the sun and tho moon
pull in the same direction, we have es-
pecially high tides on that side Of the
earth on which this double gravitational
pull is exerted; while, if the sun and
the moon pull in opposite directions, or
at right angles to one another, then the
tides will be low. The theory is that
when the SUN and moon pull together, IN
one straight line, their combined pull
causes the water on that side Of the earth
TO rise higher than IL usually would;
while il their pulls are in different dircc-
tions they will tend TO neutralize one an
other TO certain extent. II is n curious
fact that full lunar tides occur on the side
of the earth opposite the moon, at the
same time as on the side nearest to IL
The reason for this is not at first clear,
and one would incline TO believe the con-
trary. The reason is that the gravitatlon-
nj pull exerted upon the water is also cx-
erted TO certain extent upon the solid
earth, and the whole earth IS pulled to-
ward the moou, with the result that the
water on the opposite side OF the earth H.
rs it were, '1eft behind II is also little
known fact that the surface of tho OCEAN
the ''sea lcvel'--is not the same the
world over, but that the water is in
fluenced by the mountains and bodies
of land. Professor Hull has estimated
that the gravitational attraction Of

"BABE" RUTH MAKES

Home Run Star Brings His Total
to Twcnty-Four When Ath-

'Babe" Ruth's two homers twice bump
ed the Athletics yesterday, when the
home-run terror reached the twenty
four mark for homers for the season.
Tho two games were replete with homers,
Cy Perkins of the Athletics securing one
IN each game. The Macks failed to
bunch their hits and this accounts for
the Yankees taking both games. The
White Sox opened up and defeated the
Tigers, 40. when three Detroit pitchers
were hit hard The Red Sox split even
with the Senators. The Browns trippcd
Cleveland yesterday, winning 10-S, as a
result of which the Indians hold on first
position is not so secure.
The Phillies and Boston were not
scheduled. The Giants pennant hopes
were spiked by the Robins yesterday when
both games were copped by the Brook
lvnites, Vaughn allowed one hit and the
Cubs were able to defeat Chicago, 10.

Matt Donohue, playing great game

their match last night, l00-SS The game
was witnessed by one of the largest crowds
that has yet attended a game. Lynch
had won nine straight games and had
been picked by many to defeat Donohue
The men were tied at 35, 62 and 81, when
Donohue finally ran sixteen balls and
Lynch came back and tailed six and on
the next shot Donohue ran out.

BEAN FORAGE UNDER
 STATE QUARANTINE

For protection of the great bean indus try of the state from the Mexican bean beetle. which appeared in Jefferson coun- ty. and quickly extended it's ravases to adjacent counties during the summer and early fall. the Alabama state hor- tic,litural board has been forced to de- clare a quarantine against the shipment of all bean products. hay and forage products and unfumigated nursery stock from this auarantined territory to other points within or without the state.
 The lines have been carefully drawn, They include the affected area and a safety zone cf g miles beyond
 The legislature did not accord the funds for the prompt elimination of the pest. The horticultural board has drawn dead line about the infested area preventing shipment of stuff that is calculated to carry the beetle to noninfected terri tory.
 Hay is included in the quarantine De. cause hay is a favorite hiding place or tbe beetle. and affords it free transpor- tation. The beetle came to Jefferson county in alfalfa hay from Colorado.
 Noninfested territory may ship into Tested territory for reshipment and dis tribution when way bills so clearly specify destinations as to be acceptable to the horticultural department.
