SO -(Special.) Kansas City batted Fricken hard for nine Innings to-day, but came nearly dropping the game in the lust round. With Kansas City six runs to the good the Saints came In in the ninth and through a series of hard hits and TlllTnljiif nf rrnra irnitfit the score up to within one of the Blues' mane Slaglo was given a wafic at the start of the game, Frlsbee s-acriliced, Campau singled and Williams cleared the bags with a triple. Wilson was hit by a pitched ball and Williams ncored on O'Hagan's Infield out. In the stcond, with two outs, Slagle drew- another pats, Frisbee hit througn Fricken, Campau and Williams singled and Wilton hit for two bags. In their half of the third the Saints secured two runs.

Geier started by hitting to left for three cushions. Glenahin went to Jirst on four balls, and Isbell sent a swift liner to VIox, Geier scoring whlla Glenalvln was being retired at second. VIox' error gave Shugart life, and Isbell scored while Classcock was being caught between first and second. In the fourth, Gilln walked to first, went to second tin a. wild pitch, to third on Williams' muff Wilson's throw, and socered on Spies' tly to Campau.

Slagle's triple, which followed Burke's drop of McVicker's fly, allowed the Blues one score in the fifth, and Friend single following v'lox double brought in another. Burke orened St. -Paul's eighth with a single. O'Hagan muffed Williams' throw on uienulvin'a grounder, and Isbell and Shugart hit safely, two runs resulting from the combination. Wilson started the ninth with a slow one to Gillen, who threw badly, allowing the runner to reach second.

Wll-on went to third on O'Hagan's flv to Geier and scored on a wild pitch by Phle. who had succeeded Fricken in the eighth. VIox hit for two bags, and scored on Slagle's single. The locals were six behind at the end of looked as though the game were over, but luckily caught a couple in that inning. Geier was first to bat and to first he walked.

Glenalvln put a single over bhort. lrlsbee let the ball get through him and Geier went to third, walking home on Isbell's drive to O'Hagan, who dropped the ball, but afterwards got It up in time to throw Ibell out at first. Shugart drove a hard one toward center field. Campau ran and caught It in Slagle's territory. In spito of this splendid fielding support, there was a rattle in Friend's throat and "he gave two bases.

Spies hit one straight at VIox. and It Icoked as though the game was over but the ball bounded right over the shortstop's head before he could get his hands up, the sphere was out toward the field, and St. Paul hnd scored two runs. While Phle was at bat Friend suddenly turned and threw to first to catch Spies napping. The ball went up the grassy terrace and Spies completed the circuit before the ball got back Into piay.

Friend gave Phjle a base, and then Manning took him out. Oar was sent In. Two bad ones camo before he began to get them over. Burke fouled a number, occasionally striking at one of them. At last he hit a pretty warm one near second bae.

VIox corralled It and threw him out at first, defeating the aspirations of the home team for the day. The score: ST. PAUL. AH R. IB SH SB W.

This situation hardly warrants the encouragement of a boastful spirit in the hearts of local fans, jet two days at the top Is better than one. When one comes clown to the bottom ot things there are very lew plajers in the Kansas City team who have done better work than little Roony VIox and terlalnlj none have labored harder for the success of the team. VIox coders more ground than anj other rran on the team and probably is tha most reliable of the quartette of infielders. Were he a good, strong batter It Is more than likely that he would now be considered among those, of the team who are llkelj to land in National Lrague berths next season.

In stick work, however, he has shown a marked improvement during the last few weeks and jesterdaj gae Fricken more trouble than any other one man, making four hits, two of which were doubles. Kansas Citj people are glad that Manning will most likely be able to retain the little second baseman. Here is ono for the scorers to figure on. Koat was at bat Jtsterday and Brown had two strikes on the big fellow. Th- uet pan pitched was a wide curve th it dug into the ground in front of the plate.

Brown was credited with a strike-out jesterdiy and a wild pitch at the same time. As the man reached hrn base on the batterj was certainlj a "first ise on error, and is so charged, although the error column would not show it. Ohio State Journal.

The Blues carried on a slugging match yesterday and showed Hon Fricken how the ball can be swatted by representatives from this Western country. O'Hagan and McVIcker were the only members of the team who did not participate. Newt Fisher has a split hand, thus forcing Dixon to do all of the catching for the Millers. Pitcher McNeely was hit in tho mouth by a stone, thrown by one of the rowdy patrons of baseball In Milwaukee at the Millers as they were leaving the park In a 'bus. Hurst has lost none of his popularity In St.

Louis. The public is dlguted with the Browns, but patrons do not hold Hurst responsible for their poor showing. The plajcrs are sometimes roasted and Von der Ahc has been guved from the stands but Hurst escapes criticism or condemnation Sporting News.

If it is Calla-han-Gritllth-Thornton we will ap plaud Mr.

Danny Friend marked his entree Into the team by winning his game from the hard hitting Saints, but he dealt out eight bases on balls enough to lose a majorltv of games. Fricken was found for a grand total of sixteen hits, however, and the Blues won the game with their sticks when Friend's wlldness bade fair to lo'-e It Umpire O'Neill made a strange decision in a Svracuse game at Providence last week.

Ho called one Svracuse base run ner out for being lilt oj a batten oali, and then, contrarv to the rules, allowed the man that made the hit to be thrown out at first. The decision raised such a howl that the game was finally forfeited to Prov idence. By their defeat of the Pirates jesterday the Bostons clinched their hold on first position in the big league race, the Reds and the Orioles each meeting defeat. Yesterday the first and second positions were separated by but Tour points, but fj-day the Champions are fourteen points In advance of the two teams which are tied for second place. It is now claimed that Cincinnati is after Geier.

the stocky voungster who has been plavlng the St. Paul outfield, taking an occasion il stab at second base and doing the backstop work when Spies has been relieved of his position by the umpire. It will be remcmbi-nd that Manning tiled hard to ecuro Geier, while Comlsky came niar landing Single. Jlmmle came to Kaa-F-is City, however, and the ex-Philadelphian went to St. Paul, and subsequent events lave proved that Manning got much the best of the deal Geier is a good plaver.

however, and is valuable as a utility man. Chicago and New York are plaving a groat series just row In the City bv the Lake. On Monday both teams plaved nn errorless game, and New York won by tho close wore of 2 to 1. Yesterdav Chicago won. 1 to 0, the only flukes being two which were committed by the Chicago pljers.

neither of which, however resulted disastrously. In the two games each team has made but ecven hits Thornton and Rusie. and Griffith and'Meekln have been the oppo-lng pitchers In the two games. The position in the standing of the three leading Western League teams is not chnngid this morning, as each of them bagged a ictory jesterdaj. Had the Blues lost thej- would have tumbled down to third plac while, on the other hand their victory would have clinched their hold on tho top position if tho Indians and the Brewers had dropped their games.

The same conditions applv to-daj- which were In force jesterday. If Kansas City loses timer Meredith arrived home this morning from Milwaukee, where he quit the Jvarsas Citj club esterdav. Elmer is in Sry "'different regarding his episode with Manning. He rec.ived iVfi f-Port at St. Paul Klmer te egraphed him not iHt uic twis remuieu He is heard nothing since Manning will probably suspend him which will make him free to join mitlin league he sees lit lJ r' A few 0I the National League are watching his work pretty closely also -Webb City Register If President Manning suspend Meredith 1 probably will impose another fine upon him, as the plaver deserves, and then Meredith will not be free to join any Western League team until he turns over the money.

Meredith will not gain In favor with managers of teams in any league by assuming to be "indifferent regarding his episode with Manning." Tlie Natfona!

A ote for home rnle is a -vote for Greater Kansas Citj. On next Mondaj football practice for the season or 1SDS will be begun at the University of Kansas. The tall term will not commence until Wednedaj. but Captain Mosse has notified the candidates to meet him at Lawrence eirlier In the week In order that he may give them his preliminary instruetions. lrd work will not be com-meneed until after cooler weather sets in.

but the members will be given daily practice in punting and failing on the ball for several weens. Captain Mosse believes tint the prospects for a winning team this jear are unusually hrlght. While but three of last ear's regular plajcrs are sure to be back in school, it is expected that much good football 1-tenal HI be found in the ranks of the new students, and nearly all of last ear's substitute team will be candidates for positions on the 'varsltj-. Dr. He Woodruff, who has been selected to again coach the plajtrs, will reach Lawrence about the middle of next month, when It Is expected that Captain Mosse will have about decided upon the personnel of his team, and active training will be begun in earnest.

The football men have been crowded out of North college by the musical department of the unlversltj-, but other suitable quarters located conven-ientlj- to McCook field have been secured, where the plajers and the coaeh will live together during tho season. Mosse and Averj Still There. Mosso and Averj- will probably be the onlj' members gf last jear's 'varsity who will occupj- positions In the line. Mosse will take his old place as right guard, but the man who will plaj- left has jet to be chos en. Big Nat Foster, who filled the place for two j'ears, is a volunteer in the Twentieth Kansas, and will not return to school.

Simpson and Buzzl, members of last ear's team, who showed great ability in the practice games and in the few others in which thej- were called upon to plaj-, are practi cally sure of the end positions. -o well filled last ear by Voigts and Games. The fact that "Sal" Walker, for several ears one of the beat centers In the West, has comp'eted his course at school and will not be permitted to play again presents a serious problem before Captain Mosse and Coach Woodruff. The position is a hard dne to fill and candidates for the place are few. Wheeler, last ear's substitute, would have fitted well in the center cf the line this jear, but he Is now a lieutenant in the regular army.

Silver, a new man. from Morganvllle. Kas may get the place, but It Is more than likely that he will be inailu fullback 'Snoitj-" Hamlll, who captained the '05 irsitv-, has announced his Intention of taking a postgraduate course, and he Is assured of his old place at tackle. The mighty imill's re-entree will strengthen the line wonderfully, for rthere are very few plaj era in the Went who are able to give him pointers in the manner In which his position should be plnjed. Bloekberger.

one of last ear's tackles, does not expect to he in school this season, but If he does decide to resume his studies and. inci-demnllv-. do a little work on the gridiron, he likely will be shifted to one of the positions behind the line, probably as halfback. Hens in Ills Old Place. Poorman, one of last season's halves, will not be In the universitj' this jear, but Hess will again be In school, and will take his old pi ice.

Hess was one of the best ground-gainers of the '97 eleven. Bert Kennedj-, the '07 captain. Is not llkelj- to return, and he will be sadly missed. There are a number of candidates for quarter, however, nnd Captain Is confident that from among them a fast man can be selected Owens, who played the position last jear with the Arkansas City Athletic Club's team Is a promising candidate. Anotner u.

Nearly all of the plajers have occupied the summer in pursuits which will aid them in their football training. Captain Mosse himself has spent the season at Washington park swimming and throwing the immer. He has plajed football all his life, having formerly attended English schools at which exercise In the game is compulsorj-.

Simpson and Buzzl have spent the time on the farm and Hess and Avery have been pitching hav during the summer. Acting Manager E. J. Leland has only parti illy arranged the season's schedule but games will be plajed with several of the best college teams in the West. It Is expected that Kansas will meet the Medics October 3, during Carnival week, although farultj- opposition has been threatened The claim of professionalism raised against the Medic plajers bj- some of the Kansas professors Is not well made, for the rules of the Medical college will prevent anj-one from participating in nnv of the games who Is not a bona fide student at the Institution.

The ThnnkuKlv Injr Day Game. The Ames college eleven, of Ames, Neb, will plaj- Kansas on October either in Lawrence or Topeka. For the past two years the team representing this school has been one of the best in the West. Ne braska will plaj- at Lawrence, November when the ancient rivalrj- between the two state Institutions will again as-ert itself. Last jear the game plajed at Lincoln ended in a fracas and this season's contest will be for blood.

Of course, to the Kansas unlversltj- student, the most important game of the jear is that of Thanksgiving day, when the Jaj hawkers will meet the Missouri Tigers In the annual contest at Exposition park. All of the previous games of the jear are considered but piactice games in comparison with this mlghtj struggle, which each 2 4 4 2 3 3 dts .113 co ot the teams would rather win than secure the interstate championship.

Who Will Re Oar Siext President I Politicians are now planning for the presidential campaign of 19e, but the war has so overshadowed all other matters that politics is almost unnoticed. Many people are of the opinion that the candidates will he the same as in 1SSC, but there may be a "dark horse" who will win the race. Popularity has much to do with candidates. This is also true with medicine.

The most popular remedy to-day is Hostetter's Stomach Bitters, and It has retained this for manj sears. Scienee never discovered the equal of this medicine for stomach, liver and kidney diseases It builds up solid flesh tissue, imparts lgor and vitality to all organs, and makes life worth living. A bottle will make a big change for the better. Try it. Paimliiir Amy of Old CarlnnKy Shop.

From the London nlobe The most curious of all curious shops are decidedij the curiosity shops, now becominir scarcer every jear. Certainly these lave lots of useless things to sell and. strance in unv nnVinrJxr At- iun.iiuat:B mem. inis Is unusual In the ordinarj- course a for some useless things there is quite .1 laree demand, but for articles of vertu and knick-knacks from all corners of the globe there Is little or no markPt. except at ntful seasons.

How the old gentlemen, who frequently keep such shops, amass such a heterogeneous stock is bejond a limited comprehension. Old china, bowieknives, pistols, shells interesting things In ivory and what nots of every order are jumbled together in a surprising manner; still, notwithstanding that the affable old man will show vou everv-thine: be has to sell, and Is nerferH- ing to deal with jou If jou have aught to dispose of, he never seems to have anv customers to buj. And the old gentleman does not mind. He opens his shop regularlj nt Irregular hours and shuts It at Irregular hours, and If he wants to go anj where on business he locks and bars and bolts the door and leaves the place deserted and unprotected, and contentedly goes his journey. Curlositj' shops grow rarer every year, but It Is hardly possible that they will disappear altogether.

Their place Is largelj-taken now bj- fashionable establishments that sell cracked sauctrs, chipped plates and consumptive teapots and fans The trade in "ancestors," too. Is going out of date: people don't want ancestors, thej-want monej-; so shops that only supplv-rcmlnlscences of other dajs are out of place. BADGER LUMBER CO. THE OLD RELIABLE.

FERRETT, Agent, 372 Pearl rew York. Iluxsln'x I.lternry Sctiantlnn. From the Pittsburg Dispatih The literary sensation of the day In rtu-sla is a short story bj- Count Lioff IaovIcIi Tolstoi, son of the well known novelist. It is entitled "A Chopin Prelude." and is offered bj- the author as an antidote to his father's "Kreutzer Sonata." which, in the opinion of Komkoff, the hero of the new storj has done more harm than good to humanltj. The relations of father and son are not disturbed bj' this Ilterarj passage at arms the least, although the elder Tolstoi has so far left his son's criticism unanswered.

As to the Russian critics, thev seem to agree with the logic of Komkolt's monologues, but do not -et much store upon the llterarv quality of the storj-. "A Chopin Prelude" is not the j-ounger Tolstoi's firstborn He made his debut with a sketch In Nedj-ella (The Week) several months ago.
