Just little bit more Saturday afternoon
when the Last & Wood Heel Co., playing

Fort Dummer 1t took the TOymakers
Just 10 full innings to get the decision
over the Lasters, ) to 3, in one of the best
games of the season.
The Fort Dummerites had the same
opportunity to turn the trick, bat loose
playing in one inning gave the Lasters
with two runs enough to clinch the game
as the Cottons were unable to produce
anything like score after the presenta-
ton
The usual schedule of two seven-inning
games received jolt when the first game
was carried to 10 innings. The second,
however only went the necessary 61a
making 1914 innings of baseball and the
time consumed was only 2 hours and 90
minutes, which goes to show that both
games were fast. The last game was par
ticularly so, making q new speed record
for the season as it only took one hour
and five minutes to complete the game.
Taken as a whole the fans were treated
TO some pretty good ball for although
there were some poor plays there were
enough good ones to put the poor ones
in the shade. This was especially true in
the first game when some really clever
fielding was pulled off. Fisher of the
s. A. Smith Co. made two pretty catches
that probably saved trouble Moore of
the same team also turned in a clever ex-
hibition, pitching his best game of the
season. He had an exceptionally busy
day in the field, turning in 10 chances
without slip. Outside of one inning
he had the Lasters well in hand forcing
them to hit easy grounders when hits
were needed. In the eighth, however, the
Lasters touched him up for three hits,
but even then they would not have tied
the score but for a slip by Fisher, who
dropped a throw from MOquin to get a
runner at second which would have been
the third man out. This paved the way
for a run IA Adams. the next hitter, pro-
duced a single, scoring the run from sec
ond.
Out of the three runs collected by the
leaders only one of them was earned
while four of the five by the Toymakers
were the result of good hitting. Burke,
usually pretty tight pitcher, was not
up to form and was touched up rather
freely; in fact, the ToymakerS got man
on in every inning of the game except the
fourth, sixth and ninth. A double play
and bit of poor base running saved his
hide in the seventh inning when the con-
test should have been settled. The loss
of this first game put the Lasters off
their feet just a bit and had the Fort
Dummer outfit played a little live wire
ball they, too, might have humbled the
leaders but two errors and a cheap hit
spilled the beans

BIG ERUPTION Of
VOLCANO IS EXPECTED

/ HONOLULU, Aug. Ell. y. S,)-
Extreme activity during the Autumn
months OF this year eliminating in a
tremendous eruption in November is
the prediction being made for local
volcanologists for Kilauea volcano, the
continuously active volcano situated
near the city of lGilo, on the island of
Hawaii
Professor r. A. Jaggar of the L. S.
weather bureau, director of the vol
cano observatory at Kilauea volcano,
is said to be among those looking for
unusual activity in the crater this fall.
During March of this year there was
a most spectacular eruption in which
the lava overfIowed from the fire pit
of Halemanumau onto the floor of
the main crater Since that time there
has been a gradual substance of the
lava in the fire pit but such move
ments are usually followed by rising
and increased activity. Professor
JaSgar says.
If the expected activity takes place
it will be the signal, not for a panicky
flight from the region Of the volcano,
but for a rush to get there and see
the show" for Kilaue1 is a tame
volcano and its eruption. while spec
tacular in the extreme, is not anger

STEAM DRIVEN AIRSHIP
HAS PROVEN SUCCESSFUL

LONDON, Aug 26.--G. \. So
Driving an airship by steam is the
very latest stunt evolved by a former
expert of the Royal Air Force.
Captain w. +. Durtuall, who was
formerly Staff Captain in the Chief
Mechanical and Electrical Engineers
Department of the Royal Air Force,
claims to have figured ont n method
by means of which airships can be
driven by steam.
According to a very conservative
account of the invention, as given out
by the Air Ministry, it does away COM
pletely with the ordinary boiler,
steam being generated by means of
internal combustion power or heat
energy.
The superhcated steam heat energy
is supplied to special steam motors,
which are reversible and can be con-
trolled from a central control station,
Heavy oil is used as fuel and il is
claimed that the driving machinery
can be safely placed inside the frame
of the airship instead of in separate
gondulas, as at pI2seut,
This viii bring about a Grcat reduc-
tion in air resistance and will there
fore reduce the power required for
propulsion.
1t IS claimed that tho net system
will function at attitudes hitherto un-
atta'nahle with the ordinary type ot
internal combustion engine,
