SOME CRISP DOPE
CRACKERS’ NEW PITCHER
REPORTS TO “THE CHIEF’
Elmer Duggan, the new pitcher who la
or—to be exactly correct— noon will be,
official member of Billy Hnilth's team,
fired Id Atlanta Thursday ami reported to
Chief Joyner at Are headquarter*. He came
to thle city directly from tl»*» North* and
did not report first in Montgomery a a
Brown, the other new man, did.
The newa that Billy Hrnlth had tacked
onto theee two men from the Inter-State
League brought to light, the fact, hitherto
overlooked, that Jack Evers.lt again under
suspension. Jack had not been reporting
regularly for practice liefore the team left
town, and the night the bunch pulled out
Billy Smith slipped a auepeneiou Into him
and left him to think It orer.
Thla enabled Billy Hmtth to sign Brown
and still remain In the game himself.
Duggan, who turm*d up In Atlanta Thurs
day, la a promising looking southpaw. Ilia
home la In Franklin, lud., and he has been
In league baaelmll for leaa than a year.
A year ago he was playing Independent ball
with Indiana teania. Toward the cud of
the season he waa picked up by
Vincennes dtib In the Kitty League, wberfe
he finished out the senaon. While with that
aggregation he pitched live guinea and won
four of them. Ilia batting In those five
games waa over .500.
Thin spring he atarted out with the
Marlon, Ind., club of the now defunct
i Inter state. Thla organlxatlon wna made
up of Marlou, Limn, Ohl6, Flint, Mich., An
derson. Ind., Fort Wayne mid Bnglnaw.
It ran pretty well until after July 4, like
moat leagues of Ita claaa. Then two of the
fdulm pulled out to Join the Southern Mich
igan League and that put the Inter-State
to the bad.
While with Marion Duggan pitched eigh
teen games and won 15. Ills batting aver
age for aerenteen of the game* waa .116.
Out of 6? time* at bat he gathered 18 bite
and 8 rune.
Duggan tetle a good one on hie brother.
After the game of July 4 "Little Johnny,"
the Nashville pitcher, wrote to Elmer:
"They batted me all over the place, but I
couldn't help It. I never eaw such a crowd
before In my life and I got atege fright."
(Birmingham papers please copy.)
Thursday morning at eome unearthly hour
before daylight Meadamea Archer. Zeller,
Bparka, Croxler and Harley left for Moat
gomery, where they sprung a surprise party
their husbands. Billy Hmlth claims that
vat the rooting of'the bunch which won
the close game for the Cracker* Thursday.
Ko our old friend the Count de. Campau
will be bnek In our midst soon.
The old fans rememlier the count's sad
experience with the New Orleans team. He
blew money by the bale In the team, but
everything broke badly for him and Anally
he jumped the game.
Here's wishing him better luck aa an
umpire than he had as a manager.
Hpenklng of umpires the Bouthern League
has had em with fancy names thla year.
Cam pa a. Bchuster. Pfennlnger, Tackaberrv
and Utidderbarn! Hounds like a college yell.

the bouts aturt all four will be Jo the

Excerpt from Cottonllpp'a "History of
the Stone Ago:"
A game call'd baaeball waa Indulgod In,
nnd a aplrtt of much rivalry seemed to ex-
tat betweeu the village,, which formed
themielvea Into league, and rlalted each
Other - ! home, and played agnlnat each
other.
The rule# of the gamo were ninny, but
quite atinple, the foreiuuat principle of the
game betng to hit. with much might, and
llkewlie main, n round atone with n very
heavy alah, In ouch a manner and with
lurb aklll aa tor the runner to reach a
bane before an oppoalng player could re
cover the atone and get It to that itolnf.
Much aklll wae developed by the ployere
In each department of tbla .port, nud aa
much aa four, and five dynnsaurus vklua
were given a, compensation for a souaon's
work by the more expert of the ptnyere.
Thle great rivalry between the vtllagea
grew to aueh an extent na to force the
governor# to paaa law# ranking o limit to
the number of akltin a .loom could pay
for nil the plnyere during a nenemi, nnd
It la wild that thone who had cbnrgo of
the team#, ao anxlona were they to con-
ntantly get the lient player,, thnt they re
sorted to the method of making presents |
to those whom they wished to play for their:
village. •
One aenion a leant In one Icogue, called j
thk Flnnitngoca. Iss-nme ao eager for the |
pennant that the mntiager resorted to nil J
port, of trick, end device, to encompass I
thl, end, uml for a long while them went j
undetected. In one game, played with a
team called the Itoman Candle#, after the
Btonea to be tiled tn the game had hA*n>
duly Inspected by the proper authority. 1
the game started, nut! became almost at;
ouee one of deep Intercut an<l much heat. 1
The Itoman Candice were ranch to the nd-
vantage In the game, when suddenly, while,
the Flanilngoea were atrtklug. the mana
ger of the Iteuinn Caudles detected a pe-
culler sound na the utnti struck the thrown j
stone, nnd be Immediately protested. The
hatter, who waa n valuable olid expert j
toaser. waa a notoriously unsuccessful hats- !
man. bnt to the ntnnxemeut of even his |
own friends, the object he had struck mstr-)
cd and snared until he had the opportunity j
of acurlug n point for bis ms ten. a feat not i
often performed at a single stroke, and tlieit I
only by the moat expert liat,men.
Thought, of trirkrry became rife at mice
In the uilnila of the oppoalng team, nnd
when the object was recovered by the |
opposing first lieutenant, It waa found to
Ih* of wood, Instead of the regulation
round atoue, hut It was such a clever coun
terfeit a, to almost defy detection. This -
created much gossip, but tjiose unini
tiated Into the mysteries of a society
named Cult never knew what the uut-
colue of thla trickery waa: except thnt the i
captain of the Flamingoes wae unmolested I
and continued to prosper sad lead the
league.
Another team, named the Jumper!, also
claimed to he treated In much the some
manner, and the captain claimed to have
the counterfeit object used In the game
ngelnat him, bnt It waa never shown.
The Flamingoes t-lnlmed to be the strong-
e,t club In tlte league, and by the tre
mendous crowds which surrounded the
player, at every game, kept the Irngne In
gissl financial condition,, but thla fnct waa
disputed vehemently by the Kotunn famlles
amt another teum called the 'Dukes— the
Diamond Dukes.
The record# of the atone age are vague
as to the 0 outcome of these charge, of
trickery, nut It t, surmised that, many
dynossurus skins changed hnnd, a, pres-
enta~to show the good will of tlte Flaraln-
gor, wherever such action wn, deemed ad
vlssble.

Rev. Len G. Broughton, of Atlanta,
conducted a devotional hour.
Where will the axe land!. That la the
question.
Billy Smith Is again In the embarrassing
position of having more players at bis
disposal than he has any use* for. and
more than the league will allow him to
sign.
To make the signing of Brown a possi
bility he bad to suspend Evers. Bat he
now ha, the league limit, and Winer Dug
gan, who Is in Atlanta, will have to be
signed before he will be allowed to pitch.
In a quandry as to who had been re
leased, Billy Smith waa appealed to and
above la his answer.
So It la evident that the application of
the axe le yet to come.
That It will Ih - a pitcher who goes seems
reasonably certain. If Brown Is an ln-

New York, July 13.—The probable starter*
in the Brighton handicap, which will ue
the big feature of tomorrow’s program at
Brighton Beach, are pretty well known nf
present. Several horses not Jlstod Jn the
official entries to be announced late this
afternoon will be added, while at least two
of the horses sent ont at acceptances will
not face the barrier.
Hamburg Belle Is an nvsured flatter, .anil
naturally chief Interest'centers In her meet
ing up with so formidable a factor as Dan
delion. According to many smart judges
of racing form the issue of Ihe rich race
rest# between them, for Whimsical Is un
doubtedly going off edge, due to a long nud
gruelling campaign, dating from the open-
Ing week at Jamaica.
‘The Belle Just cooked Whimsical in the
Brighton mile. She needs a rest at 8am.!
toga," remarked one well know) tr/iiatr, ;
as he scanned the filly directly afttr th*
terrible stretch run of Wednesday.
Hamburg Belle Is in magnificent con<IIU<*
nnd although she will pack 123 pouuds to
morrow her stable connections and th« of
ficials of the Brighton Beach Racing An*
cintlon expect her to hang up better tbti
1:38H for the first mile of tbe mile an1
a quarter route. With rho eouraje la ^r-
fact trim, the grandest contest among tL»

Ram's Horn will carry the money of a
string of confident race followers. He \
carry 114 pounds snd be likes a (rack u

These conditions will probably obtain i

days before the nomination was made.
The novelty of the next trials will be an
event called the Amateur Stake, which will
open to doga trained and handled by
amateurs who are residents of the state.
The entrance fee has been placed at $2
and a large field is expected. A stake of
this kind Is calculated to do much to create
Interest In field trial work and should be
come a popular ftxtrre. Entries for this
stake cloee the night before the event Is
decided.
The other two events will be decided u|
usual—the Derby and the All-Aged
For the Derby the nominations cloae I
tember 1 nnd for the All-Aged December Lj

the best Informed authorities on field trki|
in the South, nnd has several times <
dated at the big national event at Grt
Junction, Tenu.
The club Is fortunate In being able 1
secure first-class grounds. The tract i
around Waynesboro Is as satisfactory i
nny In the country. It Is sufficiently <r
so thnt nny dog In the competition •
be kept In view, snd yet sufficiently brow
