panies of the Indiana National Guard
arrived here at 6:30 this afternoon and
immediately took charge of the Min
eral Springs race track, where betting
on horse races is said to have flour

ordered out by Governor Ralston, after
he had received information that the
track officials were permitting gam
bling and that the county authorities
were doing little to stop it.
Today's racing card had been corn
Dieted and the largest crowd of the

rival of the troops. W. F. Knotts,
president of the racing association, was
present, but made no attempt to defy
executive interference Mr. Knotts
said that, in the event the troops at

ston's order to clear the race course of
everybody but the track officials,
horse owners and employes, the meet
would come to an end.
There probably will be no racing to
morrow with the soldiers camping in
the enclosure. 1

JOHNSON GOING FINE
Washington Idol Gaining on
Rube Marquard's Record.
14 STRAIGHT GAMES WON
American League Star, Ont for
More Money, Has 29 Victories
and Loses This Tear.
.Konetchy's Fame Rises.
With Walter Johnson still winning
his games, the 2 to 1 defeat of Chicago
Sunday being the 14th consecutive win.
Rube Marquard had better be looking
to his laurels, tor his record of is
straight wins does not seem beyond the
reach of the big Washington pitcher.
Johnson, who Is now working for
$7500, has already announced that he
will demand 812.000 next season. At
that he is worth it in the opinion of
many, and Connie Mack praises htm as
one of the greatest men in baseball.
The vlatorv of Sunday made his rec
ord for the season 29 victories and five
losses.
The man Is already the Idol of the
Washington fans, who recently raised
a purse of $1000 as a present for the
big pitcher, and every good family has
his picture on the mantel.
The fans have only one regret inai
Manager Griffith does not use him
oftener and against all comers. It seems
to affect his work when used out ol
his turn and the bleacherites would like
to see him used every fourth day
against whoever the opposing batter
or pitchers may be.
He has not been overworked this sea
son and In the last four weeks he has
pitched but five games, wnicn ougnt
not to overtax his arm.
Konetchv. the star first baseman or
the St. Louis Cardinals. Is also coming
to the front In the talk of the day.
Rumor has it that McGraw has been
offering fabulous sums for the lime
light first Backer.
Below Is a record of Johnson's con
secutive wins:
for more than a week, and last Friday
Captain Smith made his final offer to
Spencer. The latter waa hurriedly
called out of the city on Important
business, namely, fishing on the White
Salmon, and told a friend of his to call
Smith and tell him that everything was
satisfactory and that the money would
be shipped to Rainier Just as soon as
Spencer returned.
The consummation of the deal would
make Spencer the owner of two boats,
the Oregon Kid and the Baby Bell, the
latter being the present Pacific Coast
20-foot champion. Both boats may be
taken to Fortola Festival the latter part
of October.
Spencer financed the recent Eastern
trip of the Oregon Kid, under a lease
agreement with Smith.
What Kind of Music Do You Prefer?
Unless you have listened to the ANGELUS PLAYER PIANOS and have heard
their marvelous rendition of vour favorite melodies, be they the classics of Chopin,
Beethoven, Schubert or Mozart, or the more simple and tuneful numbers of your
childhood, "Old Black Joe," "Bonnie Sweet Bessie," "Massa's in the Cold, Cold
Ground," you are yet incapable of judging just what a truly artistic Player Piano
is, just what it should do.
The Ludwig-Angelus Piano
combines the beautiful tone
of the most popular of all
medium-priced pianos with
the most perfect piano play
ing mechanism ever invented. There is no jumble of melody in the Angelus. In
stead, every note of the melody stands out -with the distinctness and clearness of
skilled hand playing. Best of all, it requires no effort on your part to play it beauti
fully the MELODAXT separates melody and harmony, while just the touch of one
finger on the PHRASING LEVER imparts your own individuality to every number
played. The Ludwig-Angelus is medium priced and is sold on easy payments.

Answer to Query. "
B. B.. Vancouver, Wash. In 1910,
when Lajoie made eight hits in eight
times at bat the last game of the year,
his final batting average was .284 in
169 games, while Ty Cobb average
yv m .38a In 140 games, Joe Jackson
the American League that year,
with .387 In 20 games, but Cobb was
considered the actual leader.
A Reader When a runner Is on
base and the batter hits to an inflelder
who In turn tries to force the advanc
ing runner, and both men are safe, the
batter is credited with a hit in leagues
which countenance the "Cincinnati
Base Hit." It Is so called because It
was In Cincinnati that this method was
first used.

LOS ANGELES. Aug. 27. (Special.)
After being watched by his wife and
followed by detectives In ner employ,
F. E. Reed, one of the wealthy own
ers of a chain of cafeterias, and pretty
Florence Adams, a cashier In his em

that party, she says. Reed helped her
to get better clothes, paid her a better

life pleasanter.
