Marshflold gained second place in
the league raco on Sunday by defeat
ing liandon, while the leaders took
care of North Bond by a score of S to
2. TI1I3 winnhrg gives Marshfield a
hope ot yet winning the liennaut, no
matter If It Is a forlorn hope. There
are three game3 yet to be played, and
Coquillo must lose two of them and
Marshfield must win all three if she
would tie Coquillo for the champion
ship. This looks like an Impossibil
ity, but baso ball is always uncertain
and tho unexpected may happen in
this Instance. North Bend cannot
tie Coqullle for. tho lead If she should
win all tho games she is yet to play,
since she has lost five games, and
Coqullle could lose but four if they
fell down on every game for the re
mainder of the contest.
Tlic Game at Raudon.
Tho Marshfleld-Bandon game
played at Bandon, was a poor exhibi
tion on the part of the Bandon play
ers, and they made fifteen errors In
tfio nine innings. Marshfield played
good baso ball, and had but three
fumbles chalked up against her.
Bandon wasexcusable to some extent,
since Its catcher had a thumb broken
in tho first inning and had to retire
from tho game. Rosa, who caught
for the remainder of. tho game, did
good work, but tho elu-b scorned to
have lost confidence when the regu
lar man wont' out, and played poorly
for tho rest of tho game. Had Hohn
had the support that Wright had, the
Bandon boys would have won tho
game. Tho base hit column shows
tho Bandon boys to havo done much
better stick woi k than the Marshfield
aggregation. .Yet this Is a part of
tho circumstances which win and lose
games, and tho team which makes
tho yellow plays usualy loses. There
wore no features In tho contest and
tho umpiring was considered fair.
Tho crowd was about half that which
comes out to see the games In Marsh
field and North Bend.

Last Victim.
New' York, "Aug; 5. One of the
most brutal of tho recent crimes
against women and children was to
day charged against Luzza Fontaza,
now locked up in New Brighton sta
tion, charged with assaulting An
toinitte TaluccI, tho two-year-old
daughter of Mr. and Mr3. Pasqual
TaluccI, of New Brighton, with whom
Fontaza boarded. He was left with
the child this afternoon while Mrs.
TaluccI went shopping. She had not
gone far from tho house when the
child's screams were heard. When
he saw Mrs. TaluccI returning, Fon
taza rii3hed from the house, the wo
man following him. Soon a mob
was chasing tho Italian down the
street. Ho was overtaken and se
verely beaten until a policeman ap
peared with a revolver and club and
fought off tho crowd. A physician
reported the child seriously injured.
Angollno CondartI, six years old,
was terribly bruised In a thicket near
the village of Llmonvlllo, Staten Is
land, this afternoon. She had been
attacked by an unknown man. Joly
Ambatro was arrested in Brooklyn
charged with attempted assault upon
two little girl3. Daniel Lalo and
Frank Feabody were arraigned on
similar charges. Five hundred addi
tional police are asked for. Most of
tho crimes are committed in seclud
ed places. Mothers throughout the
city are terror stricken.

Foote pitched a winning game, but
tho support behind him lost tho
game. There was considerable ar
gument and chaff at the first part
of tho game on account of tho um
piring, but tho offonding .official was
removed and the game went on bet

happened to Paul of tho North Bend
team, and this can bo seen in tho

PEARY WILL SOON SAIL
TO ICEBOUND ARCTIC SEA
Portland, Maine, Aug. 5. Commander Robert E. Peary left hero
today for New York whence he will sail in a few days on an ex-
peditlon to tho -north polo. He says he is going prepared to make 4
every effort to reach tho pole. He carries with him a large num-
ber of his former crow. Ho would not commit himself regarding
the likelihood of reaching the pole as "For a man to say he will do
a certain thing up there Is madness. I have learned many lessons
from my other trlp3 and I shall profit by all my experiences. What
I shall find at tne polo Is a question until I have reached It."
Peary appears In rugged health. -

UNION PACIFIC ORDERS
ALL BOX CARS STEEL
Experiments Have Proven Steel Cars
Are Stronger and Better Than
Wooden.
New York, Aug. 5. Satisfied with
tho performance of the experimental
all-steel box car built at Its Omaha
shops, tho Union Pacific Railroad has
ordeied 25 of these cars to be con
structed immediately. With a ca
pacity of 50 cubic feet more than
that of tho standard Union Pacific
wooden box car, the steel car weighs
two tons less 37.S00 pounds. Be
sides affording greater safety and
protection to goods In transit, the
steel car requires less repairing than
a wooden car, will be out of service
less frequently and will therefore
give mdre as well as better service
to carrier and shipper.
A 15-lnch steel I-beam forms the
center sill of the car below the
double steel flooring. Actual tests
have shown that the one-eighth Inch
sheet steel forming tho sides and
ends of tho car Is Wronger than the
wood usually used. Tests have also
developed the fact that the steel un
derframo of a wooden box car can
not stand up against the all-steel box
car. in collision tne enu ot a wooa
en car was badly d&maged, while the
steel car was uninjured. The doors
of the steel car aro formed by single
sheets of steel reinforced, like the
sides and ends of the car,' by diag
onal bracing.
The anticipated difficulties in
loading and unloading and the injury
that tho stool sides and bottom of
tno car might do to contents havo
not been borne out by tho Union Pa
cific's experience, as shown in the
order now placed for additional cars
of this type.

SMALLPOX IS NOW
WELL UNDER CONTROL
Myrtle Point Physicians Expect No
Serious, Spread of Mild
Disease.
(Enterpriser)
Myrtle Point nas been experienc
ing a smallpox scare, which has been
something like the war with Japan
up to date considerable of a scare
and no one hurt. H. A. Tucker was
taken with the dlscaso and as soon as
it was determined that It was small
pox he was removed to a detention
hospital, and those who had been ex
posed were viccinated and kept under
surveillance. The original case was
of a very mild nature, and the two
cases growing out of It are also of a
mild character and were promptly
isolated so that It Is believed the dis
ease Is under complete control.
Every precaution to prevent the
spread of the disease Is justifiable
and to bo commended, but In this
modern day, there Is no cause for
serious alarm, as serious results are
seldom shown, tho physicians being
so capable of coping with tho disease
that It is little worse than a case of
chlckenpox, under proper conditions.
Meanwhile there need be no fear In
coming to Myrtle Point, nor for Myr
tle Pointers to go to other towns.
The health officers aro vigilant In
fIJe'r"Ttttentlons to the matter, and If
there Is, any reason for alarm be as
sured that they will not permit tie
people to take chances of contracting
the disease.

WILL TRY TO FORESTALL

,,m-y-
Chicago, Aug. 5. Following up
efforts already made to avert a repe
tition of last winter's fuel famine In
tho West, additional ordoi-3 have
been Issued to local agents of tho
Union Pacific ltailroad to advise deal
ers of the urgent necessity of laying
in their supplies Immediately. At
tention Is called to the faet that tho
prohibition against transportation
companies engaging in coal trade af
ter May 1, 1908, has stopped all de
velopment work in this direction by
railroads, making it impossible for a
large territory to draw Its supplies'
from the Wyoming fioTds. Supplies
must now bo sought In Colorado, or
east of tho Mississippi,
Good results havo followed tho ac
tion of tho Interstate Commerce
Commission, at tho request of the
Union Pacific, in authorizing a reduc
tion of 25 cents a ton on coal ship
ped to Washington, Idaho, and Ne
vada before September 1. Tho com
pany's object in putting this rato re
duction into effect Is to lnduco
dealers to order fuel now when It
can bo readily nandled, rather than
to wait, as they did last wintor, until
transportation is difficult If not Im
possible. By September 1 local Union Pa
cific freight agents aro required to
report tho amount and kind of coal
each dealer has In stock m that date,
and If dealers havo failed to get their
supplies to report the reason, On its
own account the company has stored
200,000 tons of eastern coal, and'i
states that tho public can only be
assured of fuel next winter by
dealers filling their sheds now.
