# BADEN LEADS IN WINNINGS FOR 1912
## Noted Trotter Bids Fair to Equal Billy Buck's Winning Record.
The big race meeting at Lexington is bound to furnish some new records as concerns big money-earning trotters and pacers. Baden has now reached almost $30,000 in winnings and, with fair luck in the Blue Grass during his ten days' stay there, he is likely to surpass the world's record for big winnings. This record belongs to Ed Geer's gelding, Billy Buck, 2:07¼, that earned $33,300 in 1905.
As a matter of interest the following compilation is given showing how the horses went into Lexington as money winners:

# TWO HEAVY BATTERS IN THE WORLD'S SERIES AND CLOSE PLAY IN THE SECOND BATTLE [spans columns 2-4]

Of course everybody expected Tris Speaker of the Red Sox to shine as a batter in the world's championship games, and he did not prove disappointing. He used his club with vigor, and his three bagger that he stretched into a homer when the Giants juggled the ball made the second game a tie. But Murray's hitting was something of a surprise. He went through the games last year against the Athletics without getting a hit. This year he redeemed himself by making one hit that drove in two runs in the first game and by connecting with the ball successfully three times in the second game out of five times at bat. He scored two runs in the second game.
ing a good game, the Butte team did not seem to put up that slashing offensive which carried them to victory in years past. They do not seem to have the old "smash," and do not get into the plays with enough dash and force, but possibly this will develop as the season progresses. The team is very light this year, and if they expect to win their big games, they must depend a great deal on speed and on getting the jump on the other fellows, otherwise it is all off.
Donnelly played his usual brilliant game and was the most prominent Butte lad in the contest. His punting was excellent and much better than Anaconda showed, while his passing enabled the locals to score both times. The Anaconda boys made a touchdown through a brilliant run by Burnett, but Umpire Fredell refused to allow the score, as the Anaconda team did not have seven men on the line of scrimmage when the play started.
Received a postcard from J. A. Henshaw this morning which is dated Boston, Oct. 9, and which reads, "Just going to the game." It was the 6 to 6 tie game he witnessed on that occasion, and he probably enjoyed the 11-inning struggle immensely. Lou Frank and Chas. Andrieux are also watching the games.
As a souvenir of the series I received a Boston score card this morning from Otto Floto, who is writing the big series for the Denver and Kansas City papers. It is a large and interesting booklet containing 18 pages, and besides the usual scoring features, it contains pictures and records of all the Boston players and much interesting data on the season's work.
In the Chicago game played yesterday the Cubs defeated the White Sox 4 to 2, Reulbach pitching against Walsh, and while there was a difference of one hit in favor of the American league twirler, the Cub veteran got away with the game, which gives the National leaguers two victories and no defeats in the series. A crowd of 39,393 witnessed the contest, a larger attendance than at any of the world's series games.
The St. Louis teams played a 10-inning tie yesterday, the score being 2 to 2 when darkness ended the struggle. Steel [sic] and Hamilton were the pitchers, and the Americans got but three hits, while the Nationals gathered in seven.
Denver won the minor league championship, defeating Minneapolis 4 to 3 yesterday, which gave them the series 4 to 1. By agreement the clubs will play six games, and while it will not figure in the outcome, the last game will probably draw a good crowd.
The East Side Terrors deleated [sic] the Colorado Street Stars 24 to 6 in a very interesting and hard fought game yesterday. The St. Lawrence Stars defeated the Moonlight Stars 18 to 6 yesterday on the Second street grounds.
Through an error it was announced that Missoula defeated Philipsburg 40 to 0, but the papers of that city give the final score 64 to 0, which compares favorably with the Anaconda score of 66 to 0, and would indicate that Anaconda and Missoula are of about equal strength.
In a very interesting coursing stake yesterday Bowery Bum defeated Devil Dodger in the final round, after a hard race in which the Dodger got off in front and looked like a winner, but Bowery Bum outran him and won by several points.
Lillian K. won the free-for-all race at the Butte Driving club track yesterday, defeating Earnfold, to whom she lost in a match race last week. Hazel Dot got second money and

Earnfold third. Don't Know won from Flying Cloud, taking the first two heats. The third was a dead heat, and the fourth went to Flying Cloud, the fifth heat not taking place as it was getting very dark. Tom Prendergast drove the winner.
Al Kaufman is now in the pugilistic discard, and will probably be allowed to retire without much effort to get him into the ring game again. Saturday afternoon Luther McCarthy of Nebraska put Kaufman to sleep in two rounds, which is better than Jim Flynn could do and is quite a boost for the winner, who is now in the "White Hope" class, having finished Carl Morris and Kaufman with his heavy punches.
John McCloskey, manager of the Ogden team in the Union league, and formerly handler of the Butte, Milwaukee and St. Louis teams, may be manager of the St. Paul club of the American association next season. One sport writer, in speaking of the various men under consideration as a leader for the Saints, comes out strong for "Honest John" and makes mention that it seems a shame for Mac to waste his ability in such a league as the Union.

# GOLF BALL KILLS A SPARROW, THEN GOES ON
Boston, Oct. 14.—A golf ball, driven from a tee at the Braeburn Country club, overtook and killed a sparrow and then continued true in its flight. Joseph Gould was driving from the seventh tee. This shot had to cross a gulley and the green is about 155 yards away.
Mr. Gould got off a good drive. The bird was flying in the same direction and swerved just a trifle, apparently when it heard the buzz of the golf ball coming behind. The bird was instantly killed and fell a crumpled heap ot [sic] feathers as though it had received a charge of shot. The ball was hardly checked in its flight and landed on the green not far from the hole.

# JAMES J. MURPHY IS COUNTY PRESIDENT OF THE HIBERNIANS
The biennial county convention of the Hibernians of Silver Bow county was held yesterday afternoon in Hibernia hall, Centerville. The following officers were elected: President, James J. Murphy; vice president, Ed Lawler; recording secretary, Thomas F. Collins; financial secretary, Thomas J. Moran; treasurer, James Connolly. The officers were installed after the election and many talks were made along the lines of the good and welfare of the order.
# SORT OF JUSTICE VANCOUVER COURT IS DEALING OUT
Vancouver, B. C., Oct. 14.—Ernest Spinard, a young steel worker, died in the general hospital, after being locked up in a cell for 18 hours on a charge of drunkenness. When found his face had been crushed by a heavy blow and his skull fractured. This happened September 30, and today Harold A. McNaughton, prominent in Vancouver society and a student at Toronto university, is out on $20,000 bail, charged with manslaughter.
The trouble is alleged to be the result of McNaughton's alleged intimacy with Spinard's girl bride, who is 16 years of age. McNaughton was arrested Friday night, but the information was withheld pending his application for bail.
Dora Chester Spinard, who was but 15 years of age last Christmas eve, when she was married, was brought back from Seattle Friday night by a detective. She is held as a material witness, for the police say she was with McNaughton when he struck Spinard.
While several accounts are buzzing with all sorts of rumors, adverse criticism is directed at Magistrate Shaw by lawyers. The magistrate permitted the release of the youth, although it is said by the police that he admits being the slayer.
### SHOT BY SON.
Grfield [sic] Bay, Idaho, Oct. 14.—J. F. Miller, a laborer, was shot and killed early yesterday by his oldest son Samuel, a young boy, who, when awakened by his 5-year-old sister and told that their mother was being killed, seized a rifle and fired two shots at his father. The shooting was the outcome of a long-standing domestic trouble in which the children had taken sides. According to neighbors, Miller had been drinking heavily and had frequently been heard to threaten to slay his entire family. According to the other children, the boy fired when he discovered his father dragging the woman from one room to another.

# MEXICO DEMANDS DICTATOR'S HAND
## Anarchy Is Approaching Under Feeble Rule of Madero and His Backers,
Mexico City, Oct. 14.—The Mexican people must be prepared to be governed by a dictator "who will rule by the sword" if they fail to support the present administration, according to President Madero.
The statement was made in a speech at a banquet at which the guests were congressmen and politicians in private life. The banqueters retired with only an indistinct idea of just what it was the president had meant, and since then the public generally has done much guessing as to his real meaning.
When Madero was spreading the doctrine of equality and democracy, there were few who would have believed there was the making of a despotic dictator in him. Since then, however, by his invocation of the law of suspension of constitutional guarantees, he has displayed some of the signs of a successful "Iron Man." Many have suggested that President Madero was warning them that he himself would be the one to "rule by the sword."
"Long ago," said the president, "when I first began my work, I decided that the will of the people was the will of God. This will must be respected, and I consider it my duty to see that it is. The present government has fulfilled its promises, and if the government freely elected by the people canot [sic] sustain itself it will be proof that the Mexican people are incapable of democracy. It would then be necessary to call a dictator who will govern by the sword."
The president also bitterly assailed the press, an institution for whose untrammeled liberty he fought. "The portion of the press which has survived," said the president, "is in its majority a relic of the old regime. It tries to alarm and deceive the people, but it tried to do so for 30 years and still the people revolted, and they will refuse to believe it now."
### Opposition in Congress.
How much reliance the executive can place upon the support of congress this fall and winter is not known. That President Madero became worried during the first days of the session was evident. It had appeared that the government party, or the progressives, had the control of the chamber when that body was gathering at the capital, but not a week had passed when it became apparent that the chamber had been split into many factions, giving no party the control. Worse still, men who had been elected by the votes of one party solemnly announced their own political views as different from that of their constituents and lined up with one of the many factions.
All that became certain early in the session was that there was a strong group who declared their support of the administration "so long as they approved of the government's measures." The conversation most frequently heard in the lobby was that "congress now was going to conduct the affairs of the country; that congress would give instructions to the president rather than receive them."
Adversity has resulted in an alteration of the personnel of Pascual Orozco's immediate following. The rough riding of the guerilla warfare made necessary by the campaign of General Huerta and by the efficiency of the American authorities in preventing the exportation of arms and ammunition, did not appeal to a number of the more fastidious rebels, and they have disappeared from Orozco's army.
One of the first to go was Gonzalo Enrile, a polished product of the old regime who had charge of the treasury of the rebels. Jose Cordoba, who bore the title "general secretary of the revolution," was one of those captured by Americans at Ojinaga when the father of the rebel leader was taken in custody.
Others who for various reasons have left the service of the rebel chief voluntarily include Alfonso Casteneda, chief of staff, Miguel Quiroga and Jose Serret. These three left together and established their temporary homes in Canada. Casteneda and Serret had been in the regular army, the latter at one time paymaster general. Quiroga is a resident of San Antonio, Texas, though a citizen of Monterey, Mexico. Jose Ponce and Jose Casares, both colonels in the rebel establishment, are reported to have gone together to the United States. Casares was paymaster general of the rebel army. His home was at Las Cruces, N. M. Ponce was a citizen of Mexico, but the greater part of his life was spent in the United States.
Two others who are out of the fighting are Ricardo Gomez Robelo and David de la Fuente, both residents of the Mexican capital. Both have been tried at El Paso on the charge of conspiring to violate the neutrality laws and exonerated. Due to the injury of an arm by a bursting shell at the battle of Villa Lopez, de la Fuente probably never will return to the field.
All these men were of the type who can wear evening clothes without appearing "dressed up." There remain in the field many of their type, but the dominant element at present is the plainer and perhaps sterner material, though at no time did the departed element show signs of less courage as long as they were in the revolution.
### DEMOCRATS TO SPEAK.
The democratic central committee met yesterday afternoon and decided to inaugurate a series of street meetings, commencing this evening. The street corner speakers for this evening will be Joe McCaffrey, Frank C. Walker, Mark Ezekieis [sic], William Cutts, J. E. McNally and T. J. Harrington.
### OPPOSE MILITARY BILL.
According to a ruling of the Silver Bow Trades and Labor council last evening, every affiliated union in the city will have two men on election day at the polls to instruct the voters on the proposed military bill and to exhort them to vote against it. The allotment for polling places for the representatives will be made at the next meeting of the council. The remainder of the business was purely routine.
