Giants, Pirates, Phillies and Cards
were in a winning mood yesterday in
the National League. Rain prevented
Boston, but in the afternoon the New

Pirates, on a batting rampage, gave
the Cubs their first defeat of the

disposed of the Reds.
Phil Douglas held the Braves to six

the winners.

Pirate batters and the Cubs were
downed. IA to 2. The first Chicago
pitcher lasted five innings, yielding
eight safeties, while F'uhr was nicked
for eleven. All of the winners hit
safely. The Pirates made nine runs
in the ninth, each member of the
club scoring. Hamilton was reached
for thirteen hits by the Cubs, but was
well supported.
Home runs figured prominently in
the Phillies' 3 to victory over the
Dodgers. Williams made one for the
Donovan tribe in the first inning and
in the seventh Neis clouted a four

He has not gone in for long-dis-

Hit .335 Last Season.
Tierney was looked over" a lot by
the scouts last year, and some of
them turned him down. Cincinnati
did not want him, according to all
accounts. He finished by batting .335
for Tulsa. That's some recommen-
dation, even from the bush leagues.
He played most of the time at short

he played second base he fielded 944

That shows nerve of two kinds. one

the player.
Tierney hits and throws right
handed, and began to play ball in
Dallas in 1913. He was right under
the noses of managers even then. He
went from Dallas over to Texarkana.
from there to McAlester, was over in
San Antonio next, then scrambled into
Kansas City, where he was born.
Kansas City let him go to Tulsa and
then he began to grow a little fame.
He is credited with batting safely
in twenty-five consecutive games last
year. It's quite a trick to attempt to
play second, if you are a novice, with
flash like Maranville on the other
side of you. Maranville has the ball
and gets rid of it while some short
stops are thinking about getting it.
Browns Have Clean-Up Duo.
The st. Louis Browns have a Cobb
Crawford combination. which will be
likely to bear more fruit this year
than last. Sisler is the front engine
and Jacobson the one in the rear. If
Sisler can get on bases with not more
than one hand out, Baby Doll is the
motive power to bat him home. Cobb
and Crawford were a run-making ma
chine even with two out sometimes

GRAPHY COURSE
he Department Will be Organized
and Equipped When School
Opens in September

The recent expansion of business
IN railrOading, oil development, pack
ing house interests, banking, news
papers, etc, has opened a new field Of
opportunities IN telegraphy for young
people looking toward a commercial
career.
To enable young people to prepare
for these opportunities the Fort Hays
Kansas Normal School has organized
a department of telegraphy and has
installed an equipment which sur
passes the equipment of any like
school or department in the United
States.
The equipment consists of special
telegraphy tables, with keys and
saunders; a motor generator; three
main line railroad wires; complete
telephone train dispatching sets;
three miles of inside wire; sixty keys
sixty saunders; complete file of
railroad, freight, express and Western
Union tariffs; and such other equip
ment as is necessary for preparation
and training. The equipment has been
installed under the supervision of
competent telegraph engineers.
The department is under the direc-
ton of Professor V. C. Johnson, a
practical railroad and commercial
telegraphy man of wide and varied
experience.
The department will be completely
organized and equipped when school
opens in September and any young
man or woman of Kansas who has
sufficient education will be eligible to
enroll for the course.
An interesting bulletin describing
the course and equipment will be
ready for distribution about Septem
