THE BALL GAME
 OF YESTERDAY
Inc Scoro of the Famous Game of tho East vs West, was II to 3, Favor of tho Eaat.

Yesterday afternoon quite a large crowd of baseball fans and interested spectators witnessed the game between the East and West sides of the city.
 The West side was the first at the bat without a score. The East side coming to tn ebat made three scores and all through the game the East side boys outclassed the West. Jack Jones who pitched for the East side, deserves a great deal of credit for the result or the game.
 With such fielders as Algia billiard and Fred Fuller, now could the East side help winning for they received so many fys from the West side CD
 The West side boys did some good playing, but were just outclassed by the Fasteners.

BIG WOLF HUNT.

Last night Dr. Gill Buchanan, Geo. McLelland. Jim Barham, Horace Mo Kenzie and Rufe Bolls each taking his prize wolf dogs, went out on hunt for the big wolf seen few weeks ago on vern Buchanan's place.
 After a few hours chase they jumped the big wolf. but failed to catch 1t los ing sight of it in the bottom. However, their hunt was not a failure, for they brought as their spoil, , young wolves One fthese was killed in the capture but four are living and can be seen a tthe office of the Drs. Buchanan and Hirst.
 It seems that now it will not be nee essary to send away from home to get dogs to catch the wolves in the com munity, as the dogs of these men prov ed last night
 These men by their love Of the chase have relieved the community of great deal of anxiety.

GAS RATE HEAR
 ING TO ADJOURN
Consumers Rest Case, Company to In- trOduce Rebuttal Testimony.

With all testimony in for the Arkan- sas Natural Gas Consumers Associa- tion which is fighting the application for increase in rates of the Arkansas Natural Gas Company, members of the Arkansas Railroad Commission, be- fore which the hearing is being held, yesterday said that the case may be closed today. The company today will offer testimony in rebuttal, after which it too will rest.
 Unless the hearing is completed to- day it probably will be postponed in- definitely All members of the commis- sion. together with Harvey G. Combs, secretary, and w B. Bedding, rate ex- pert. will go to Memphis tonight to attend the hearing of the Memphis rate case before the Interstate Commerce Commission. It is believed that the commissioners will be absent at least week
 Testimony yesterday in the gas hear ing was largely cumulative, and no new elements were injected. If the ease is completed today it will be takn un- dr advisement by the commission and a decision probably cannot be expected until late next month.
 The Memphis rate case is one of the most important rate matters which has confronted the state. It is the ap- plication of the Memphis Chamber of Commerce to the Interstate Commerce Commission for a raise in freight rates west of the Mississippi river. An ap- propriation of $20OOO was made by the last legislature to enable the state to fight the application, and most of the work has been done in Fort Smith in the office of Judge Joseph M. Hill, who has been appointed special attor- ney for the commission.

CAPTAIN MEETS NEW
 CURRENT PACIFIC
Believes Uncharted Stream Was Cause of Wrecks- Is Jap Current Changing?

Los Angeles, Sept. s.-Did a new ocean current, driving in from mid ocean. carry the steamships Alaska and San Jose against Pacific Coast Rocks in two recent shipping dis aSterS in acific waters.
 Startling theories to this effect have been expressed here by two experi- enced and old-tim sea captains. One Captain P. L. Abrahamson, consider ed the worlds veteran sailor, has cap tained ships in the Pacific Ocean for forty-five years.
 During his entire seventy-three years of life on the sea the captain who is eighty-one, has steered his vessel through, across and around many of the great currents of the worlds largest bodies of water.
 In his belief a new current has against the Pacific Coast. and when th ose in charge of the San Jose and the Alaska thought they were suffi- cient distance from shore to be safe they were struck but when this new current struck them the ships were without their knowledge carried against the shore.
 Tho same opinion was expressed by Captain Irvine Hanson, in charge of the Artigas, which has been loading at the local harbor.
 The famous Japanese current, cir culating the cold waters of the Be. ring Sea from the north, has changed direction, the two captains declared.
 Increasing cold weather during a score of years along the Southern California coast has been caused by the fact that the Japanese current, instead of turning into mid-ocean oil San Francisco, has gradually con- tinued further south until 1t extends the entire length of California before turning westward.

TlRING OF REv0LTS, GERNIANY'S
 WORKERS ARE SETTLING DOWN

Berlin, Sept. S-"We have had rev olutonary movements, dictated by Moscow. we have had sectional strikes, instigated by Moscow, we have had disturbances at Sociaiis: meetings, melted by Moscow" admit ted Herr Sassenbach- tBut now" complaeentIy added the eloquent La bor leader, '-the German workmen have returned to the good old Ger man character, which does not like unrest
 . Herr L.eipart, the obviously intel lectua1 successor to Legien in the general secretaryship of German trade unipnism, cordially concdrred in Herr Sassenbach's view, which has. moreover, been confirmed to me in a dozen talks with working men. When the revolution came and brought a Socialist saddler (Herr Ebert) to the Presidency of the Republic they ex- were bitterly disappointed, and under the influence of the Muscovites they variously "manifested.'' But their spasmodic strikes failed, their riots failed, and alasi even Moscow failed; 1; the very natural result being that, as Herr Sassenbach says they "heve now returned to the good old German character"
 'eWe Must Work"
 We had thought" said a smart young workman to me at Spandau, "that when Ebert to power came so- cialism to power would come. But it now seems that we must longer wait. Ebert is a good fellow and does his best, but the war has made it gramme. So we wait, and, to make it easier for him, we must work"
 That is 'the good old German char acter-pugnacious, yet wonderfully docile; hard to arouse, easy to pla- cate. Will it uphold the Republic? see the Gfe-size portrait of the Kaiser still truculent1y conspicuous in the restaurants, and picture postcards of T~ T.. shop windows, and-I wonder. This was not the way of France in 1870. When France Scrapped Napoleon it also scrapped all records and remind CTS of him. But, was wollen Sic, the Germans are not French, nicht wahr .? The good old German character does not like unrest.
 There is some placid grumhling that their earnings have been multi piled by ten and the cost of living by fourteen or fifteen. When I showed an employer the figures which, in support of this statement, had been given to me by a workman, with a characteristic expression of exquisite urbanity he denied it. The fact nev- erthe1ess remains that butter, which was sold at 1 mark 20 pfennigs before the war. now costs 2S marks (norma1- ly ' milk has risen from 20 pfennigS per lttre to 3 marks 60 pfennigs and though the rate of exchange makes things cheap for the English visitor, the prices of commodities to German workmen must be terrible.
 Skilled Arc DiscOntented
 In comparison with England, Herr Leipart tells me, the skilled workers are not as well paid. But the stan dard of the unskilled stands at some thing like so per cent. of the skilled mems minimum. Employers tell me that the wages of the unskflled rose out of all proportion to those of the skilled worl>men and that the crafts men are consequently very discon- tented.
 As for discontent, said Herr Sassen- bach, "I continually address big

CHANGE TO RENT A MARBLE PALACE AT
 YOUR OWN FIGURE

Sydey, N. S. w. Sept. s.-Palatial marble palaces, erected in the six Heenth century by Dutch merchants on the all but forgotten isles of the South Seas, are for rent at two pounds, 10 Shillings a month, approx imately S1O, according to letters re- ceived by Sydney newspapers from mariners and itinerant merchants
 The letters were in answer to re- quest for information made by an English novelist, who is visiting Aus traIia in search for a forgotten island of romance in the Banda sea.
 One of the letters gave details Of the Island of Banda Neira, where 1nerhants erected palaces now for rent at S1O monthly out of the pro- ceeds of their flourishinG nutmeg and other spice plantations in the six teenth century

VIEWS ON ROBBED HAIR

New York, Sept S.-Some peopl have begun taking bobbed hair seri- ously.
 A few of them, apparently believ- ing that the absence of long tresses sion that something is lacking within, have informed the world that bobbed hair and business efficiency don't mix. Several railroad offices have taken the same position as the Chicago de- partrr,enS store which notified its fem mine employees that they must either let their hair grow out or be let out themselves, and all manner of people are carrying the controversy to that good old democratic forunl-the free for-aII column in the newspapers.
 And here are some of the things they wrote the editors:
 ''Robbed haired girls may not be vapid and silly, we don't say they are. but you can't get around the fact that they look that way. And, naturally, a girl that appears frivolous is not wanded In business, even though she may actually be serious minded"
 s.Gfrls have @ right to wear their hair anyway they see fit, so long as ft annears neat and respectable, and only a vapid and silly person would think for one minute that because the tfrsute adornments were short and snappy Nhe owner was frivolous
 .Bobbed hair Is just one of those foolish fads that that crazy crew down in Greenwich Village started The women around the country really
