Siorx CITY. Aug. 29.—By nplit-
tin« even with the Sioux. Suuday.
Oklahoma City failed to take ad-
vantage of the opportunity of gain
ing on the Oilers ThiH name op-
portunity hna pre ented itself three
time* in the pnat week and all three
times drew a hlank so far as the In-
dians were concerned.
The Oilers have won only three
out of the last eight games played
while the Indians were unable to
do bettei than split even in the same
number of games. Had the Indians
Jumped at the chances offered there
is a possibility they would be higher
up in the percentage column.
To get ba« k to the panics played
yesterday; the first contest \.as a
nip-and-tuck affair until the sixth
innings, when the Sioux sewed up
the game by scoring three runs.
The second game lasted only six
innings, but was long enough to let
the Tribe send over a brace of j
counters in the fourth, which was
one more than the Sioux were able
to Rather. The final result was that
once again the Indians failed to
gain.
One of the largest Sunday crowds
attending a game in this city. turned
out to witness the contests and the
enthusiasm evinced by the specta-
tors showed that the games were in
teresting.
A triple steal by the Indians in
the first game, in which Griffiths
scored from third base while Haven
port was preparing to pitch, brought
tho crowd to its feet and Griffith
was given rounds of applause.
Both games were faBt, the first
contest taking one hour and fifty-
five minutes and the second an
hour and fifteen minutes.
The box scores:
first game.

If what you offer is
good--Leader read-
ers will buy it
Whether it be to buy or sell, to lease or trade, Leader
readers are always in the market for any proposition
that is attractive. Leader readers belong- to that class
which has not only the inclination but also the means
to buy what they want. The Leader is known for the
distinctive circulation it has. Few papers command the
home attention like the Leader. Its bedtime stories,
Doctor Hirshberg's "Health and Happiness," Mrs.
Kirk's "Household Quiz," its peerless cartoons, its
matchless editorials and general reliability will serve
to establish it as the strongest newspaper in the Okla-
homa evening field.
