LIN Addition to Fine PitcI,ino
League Leaders Pound Three
Rival Boxmen and Win
by the Score of 90

Failing to halt the mad career of the
champion Reds with fifteen men the
day before, Your Uncle Robbie assigned
the task to one man at Ebbets Field
yesterday, and that one man-Burleieh
a. Grlmes-encom the defeat of
the naughty Cincinnatians by the lop-
sided score of 8 to 0. 1t was the sec
ond game of the "croocial" series. and
the Reds lost their chance to take the
lead during their current stay in Brook
lyn
GRIMES was called upon to pitch the
Dodgers to victory. This he did so
efficiently that he shut out the cham
plons with five puny hits, only two Of
which were clustered in one inning.
But Bugleigh did more than that. He
also did little batting on the side.
He made three hits, which drove in two
runs, and made the tour of the bases
three times.
Of course, there were eight other
Brooklyn players in the game. but they
were there merely to conform with the
rules and to make it regulation game
Grimes's mates gave him quite some as
sistance at that, but Burleigh could
nave done as we'll without them.
And that was not all Grimes did.
he was also was the cause Of the Reds
losing the services Of Eddie Roush,
their star batter, for day or so. In
the sixth inning burly Bureigh lifted
a high fly back of second base. Roush
sprinted in, but could not get up to
the ball in time for the catch. 1t fell
for single. and Roush fell to the
ground with wrenched ankle. He
retired in favor of Chad See, former
Flatbush resident.
The only regret the Brooklyn fans
had over the victory of their pets was
that it had to be at the expense of
a Brooklyn boy, Jimmy Ring. The
former semi-pro started to pitch for
Fat Moran, but couldn't make go of
1t, he vas gently removed in the
sixth inning, after being plugged for
thirteen hits. Rube Bressler ucceeded
him and lasted an inning during which
the Dodgers nicked him for four hits.
Bressler gave way to young Lowe, who
allowed the league leaders one hit in
their last two turns at bat
Little Petey Kilduff containued his
bang-up game at the bat and afield.
His triple started a four-run parade
in the fifth inning, and his double put
in motion the machinery that manu-
factured the last three markers in the
sixth. Grimes himself inaugurated the
two-run rally that was sufficient to
win the game in the third.
Things began to happen in the

Grimes took his stance at the nla+o
after Miller had struck out. Burlejgb
bounced a double off the right field wall
and scored on Olsons single to ripht
Ivan the Terrible got to third when
Neale threw nightly but widely to the
pate IN an attempt to nail Grimes
Olson scored on Johnstons single.
hllduh opened the fifth with a triple
to Squire Ebbets's woodpile in left and
completed the circuit on Mill"r,a u
single. Up came Grimes again. and
again Grimes hit safely. This time il
was single, and both he and his bat
terry mate polished off the plate on
olson's triple to left. Ivan rode home
on Grlf1lth's single to the same field
Ring had been wrung pretty thor
oughly of hits by this time, but Moran
allowed him to try it once more in the
sixth. Kilduf, however, made Pat
change his mind by slashing double
down the third base line. That blow
declded the manager of the champions
IL was hot day, and the Dodgers were

Ammonia by New Process.

horsepower of the Marmore cascades
near Terni, about seventy miles from
Rome, and maintains that he can turn
out heterogeneous plant food for the
Italian farmer at cost as low as l
Ira per kilo equivalent to $00SS per
pound, with the Ira taken at it's par
exchange value of $0.193). 1t is said
that the falls are capable of general
ing not less than 10000 horsepower.
These are the cascades over which

An interesting development in tele-

which operates on two ordinary dry

telephone itself is built for the use

stallation is very simple, as the tele-
phones fasten to the walls with two
screws and there is nothing more tech
nical for the boy to do than to follow
simple instructions in connecting the
wire with the posts on each telephone
box. The set will operate up to 1000
feet, instead of the usual 100 or 200
feet, IL two additional dry cells are
employed.

When In Doubt, Add 10 Per Cent

Wnen III DoupIJ Nuu ~ rSi SSht'
A Wall street man was negotiating
with a country tinsmith for the re-
newal Of the rain cutters on his house.
Inquiring cautiously about the cost of
copper cutters, he was surprised to
find that they would cost him at the
rate of more than SO cents a pound,
though the metal sells in ingots
around 10 cents.
"Well," said the smith, "you see the
men that work the metal up in the
shop get SO day. The shop adds 1G
per cent for the workmen's insurance
and aims to make at least 81 a day
on every man. When it comes to me,
| figure the cost Of the materials and
labor, and I have to add 10 per cent
to the wages to cover insurance cost,
too. Then I have to add 10 per cent
to the whole thing for overhead, 5
per cent for the use Of the car and
10 per cent for being a boss. SO
really don't get any profit on the job
at all. All get out Of 1t is my liv-

Reality of Disease Germs.

Replying to a protest from Lee
White, publicity department of the
Christian Scientists, against remarks
on the death from diphtheria of girl
under Christian Science treatment, the
Journal of the American Medical Asso-
citation says: Had the nine-year-old
girl been buried beneath a load of
bricks, even Mr.. White would have
suggested, we believe, that before CIV
ing the injured child Christian Sci
ence' Northumberland or present
the bricks should be removed. What
Mr.. White fails to realize is that a
Klebs-Loeffler bacillus is just as ma
terial an object as brick. 1t does
material damage, it is true, not by its
material weight, but by the equally
material toxins it produces"

Plueky Terrier Died With Fox 1t Had
Run to Earth and Killed in
Combat.

What is believed to be an unprece.
denied end to a combat between fox
and terrier is reported from the
Lake country.
stout hill fox hunted by the Bien-
cathra hounds for three and a half
hours on the mountain heights above
st. Johns-in-the-Yale sought sanctuary
in assure of rock in crack near the
skyline of Wanthwaite. Here he faced
one of the gamest terriers belonging
to the pack and, scrambling to a shelf
in the rocks, was able for some time
to give as fierce punishment as he got.
The terrier killed the fox, but re-
fused to leave it and followers and
hounds had at last to quit the cragS
so that they might make the descent
of one of the most dangerous ravines
of the mountain range before dark
ness. When huntsman and whip re-
turned next morning to the crag they
found terrier as well as fox lying dead
outside the borran.
An examination of the terrier show
ed that the fox had inflicted no mortal
wound upon him. The terrier had
dragged the fox out and then, 10th to
leave it, had laid down beside it. 1t
was clear that he had died from ex-
posure during bitterly cold night.
No similar case has, so far IS is
known, occurred before.-London
Times.
