field in succession saved Farmer McA!ester '
Ray two hits by the most brilliant
catches ever seen. Sheffield took
his off the fence while Milan, after
making a long run made a leap (h
the air and stabbed the ball. In. the
fourth frame of the first game
Nicholson parked the first home run
drive of the season at Lyon Park,
followed by Sheffield, who put Cov-
ington's hook straight over the
flag marking the foul line but was
called back by Morgan.
Both Ray and Covington pitched
great ball but Ray’s six passes over-
weigh the standing of the hits, In

An ice starved refrigerator, like anything that is
underfed, is always inefficient, and frequently unsafe, by
reason of its weakness.
Some people think they are practicing economy when
they try to work their refrigerators on he If rations of ice.
Don’t make that mistake. Keep the ice box of your re-
frigerator well fillet! at all times with OUR ICE. T.hen
you will always have some for sudden calls and emergen-
cies, yonr food will be kept sweet and wholesome, aud you
won’t worry if the wagnu happens to be a little late in
coming around.
OUR ICE is so low in price you can afford to use it
freely. Don’t be penny-wise and pound-foolish in this all-
important matter of ice. Refuse to stake your health,
your comfort, your pocket book—your whole well being—
ft on the“saviug l?l” of a few cents.

You could go much further aud fare considerably worse, if
you’re looking to fill your lumber needs aud don’t get our

It makes no difference whether your order is to be large
or small, better get “a board” now at the yard where the
prices talk strongest.

Among the notable comebacks of the
1015 baselwll season is Pitcher Joe
Wood, “Smoky Joe." they used to call
him, of the Boston Red Sox. For the
past two seasons Joe has been of little
use to his team, hut his good right arm
•eems to have recovered Its strength,
and in the few games In which he has
appeared he has been smoking them
over with Ills old time skill and speed.
Joe Is s native of Kansas City, twen-
ty-six years old and first broke Into
professional basebntl as a member of
the Hutchinson (Kan.) team of the
Western association. In the fall of
1008 he was secured by the Boston
Americans, and since then has played
with that club. His best year was In
1012, when he was Inrgely Instrumen-
tal In winning the chnmplonshlp of the
American league for the Red Sox and
also the world’a championship from
the New York Glart*. After that bril-
liant season Joe’s arm seemed to weak-
en, and it Is only now that he appears
to be working as of old.
Yankee.’ First Bateman.
"Unless I am mistaken Walter Ptpp
of the New York Americans will be the
best first baseman In either big league
In another year," said Umpire Billy
Evans the other day. “He Is a bit
crude now, but he Is learning rapidly
and Is a gg&iral player. He has a good
AWHSrfKfcan throw with unnsual accu-
racy. Furthermore, he Is quick In han-
dling ground halls. He gets many wide
throws by stepping <jff the bag, at the
same time retiring batsmen by know
ing how *o use his feet. He looks to
me like a free hitter, a patient waiter
at the plate and a great slugger when
he hits a good bntl. For his size Ptpp
can hustle around the bases with lots
of speed, and he generally uses excel-
lent Judgment. Bill Donovan surely
has picked up a coming star In his new
first bksemnn. See If I'm not right.”

Why the Cuba Win Gamaa.
The Cubs owe their success In the
National league race, according to W.
A. Phelon. Cincinnati sport writer, so
far, to their ability In cashing runs off
the chances given. They have scored
more runs /or their hits and passes
than any other club of the whole eight
—and any time you get the runs you'll
get the games. Pretty nice, these small
score games and air tight pitching con-
tests. but the boys who make the runs
are the long distance winners. The
Cub batting order Is particularly well
arranged to help the warriors around.
Bresnahan seems to have caught the
exact sequence that boosts tn the tal-
lies, for few batting orders have been
as well arranged since the one that
helped the Athletics to win so many
flags.
Star Cueists Began Early.
A- majority of the Millard players
,o have reached the first flight began
play when In their early teens, while
quite a few started In the kntoker-
bocker period of their careers. Among
the latter may be cited William F.
Hoppe, holder of all the world's balk
line championships; George Sutton,
former 18.1 and^!8.2 world’s champion;
Ora Mornlngstar, former 18.1 title
holder, and several of the former
champions who have crossed the big
divide.
Silk O'Loughljn’e Voice*,
There Is gloom among the empires I
because Silk O'Loughlln Is said to
have lost, hls voice. His famous “Ball
tub!" which came with a roar from hls
cavernous depths. Is heard no more.
He uses hls hands In making decisions
known. The other arbiters fear thnt
If Silk could lose that once powerful
voice of hls what chance have they
got to preserve theirs?
