SPORTING NOTES
EDITED BY
PERCY H. WHITING
ON SHOWERY DAY
EASTERNERS LOOM LARGE
IN RACE FOR PENNANT
Well, well! watch old Dlrmlnghnm climb.
From nowhere at all to second place In
no time at all. Prettj floo wlllnc.
President Joyner, of the local club, wild
Friday, "I'm not afraid of New Orleans
at all and Shreveport doc* not worry me
ao much. But that Birmingham team
It Is certainly alined for the top."
Just how it has happened la hard to
aay. Birmingham had Just such a winning
streak as this once before this year, but
It did not last, and when the bunch quit
trotting and went Into n brenk.lt was all
over for a month or so. in fact, for awhile
It looked ai though I>rirer Vaughan were
never going to get the aggregation back
on Its pins.
The other time that Birmingham wai
going at such an awful clip the prediction
was ventured that the Barons were playing
a little “better than they knew how.” This
statement was proved correct when the
! Bsrons went to pieces In such sad, style
land slumped to nowhere.
Whether they are only hitting It In the
\ high places or whether the team has really
! rounded out Into a first division aggrega
tion la hard to tell, for It has been some
little time since the Bsrons were here.
And when they were here last they cer
tainly did not show pennant winning form.
Hhroveport Is holding the lead In the
Kouthern Longue by n very narrow margin
and tbe <Hiker* will bare to hustle If they
hope to hold It. Birmingham la only .006
from the lead and New Orleans Is just .011
from it
If Atlanta can do as well, or nearly as
well, ngfilnst the Western teams during
the coming stay n| home as she did the last
time the Westerners were here the Crack
ers will go right to the top. And the
ebances seem to be pretty good. The bnneb
Is certainly In good condition now, per
haps I letter than ever before this season,
and with good luck the ending of the com
ing stay ni home should see the Crackers
pretty close to the top. Probably the fight
will lie between Birmingham and Atlanta
for first place at the end of the Western
Invasion—though this business of long range
predicting la n rather dubious one.
The four teams In the second division
keep about the same distance apart and the
affair down at that end of the line la
something of a procession.
WRESTLERS NEED A REFEREE
• Everything la In readiness for the
wrestling matches Monday night with
the exception of securing the referee.
'Manager Charlson wishes to get some
local man, who knows the game and
who can be depended on to give a fair
decision. Several men have been rec
ommended to him and he hopes to se
cure some one who is satisfactory.
All the men who will take part In
the bouts are now on the grounds and
working hard.

'Mar pitcher of the Tri-State League.
The New York Americans did great work
with tho stick In their recent series with
Philadelphia, making 40 hits to their oppo-
. uents 22 In the four games. And yet the
l»c»t they got was an even break Id the
series.
Three outfleldere, four lnflelders, three
pitchers and two catchers make up the
Boston National's squad on their Western
. trip. This Is the limit for economy In the
big league.
At present the Western League race looks
to be a one team affair, with Dm Moines
nt the tgp with n percentage of over .700.
, President O'Neil might learn something
from “Doc" Shively as to the organization
of an even-balanced league.
It Is said tbat the long season, with con
tinuous bssebelt nearly the whole year,
tins done much to hurt tbo game in Cali
fornia.
It looks as though Grand Rapids and
Springfield have a mortgage on first place
In the Central League. Two clubs In tho
.600 class, two In the .500, two In tho .400,
and two lu the .100 division make up the
race.
Tho former major lcaguere, Henley, Caae
nnd Cerlsch, are doing great work for

though he worked one hour and fifteen

HORSES THAT WON ON SOUTHERN TRACKS
COP THE COIN NOW AROUND NEW YORK
Great Brighton Handicap
Richest and Best of All
By J. 8. A. M’DONALD.
By Private Leased Wire.
New York, July lf.—‘Within a rabblt'a
Jump of where the ocean aurf’a foamy
crest breaks and splinters In the base of
n midsummer auushlne, the $25,000 Bright
on handicap will be run nnd won’ this
afternoon upon the course of the Brighton
Iteach Racing Association, at Brighton
bench.
The Metropolitan handicap, at Belmont
park; the Brooklyn bnndlcnp, at Graves*
end; tho Huhtirhnn handicap, nt Sheepa-
head bay, have all gone before, but It re
mains for the Brighton handicap to achieve
the distinction of ranking na tbe richest
nnd moat Important of the series. Tbo
Brighton handicap la for S yenr-olda and up
at 1% miles, and la run aa the fourth
race.
The Brighton handicap haa n reward of
$25,000
Not fewer than 40,000 people are expect
ed down at Brighton, while $1,000,000 can
bo reckoned upon aa the probable turn over
Ix-twcen the 234 bookmakers and this vast
army of speculators. Already the great reg
iments are on the move, every trolley and
surface egr from the city groaning as It
wends Its way toward the sea and the
scene of the contest.
At thla time, Hamburg Belle, “the Queen
of the Turf," seems to bo favorite. Win
ner of 1903 Futurity, nnd always regard
ed by the experts us one of the finest race
horses ever bred In the country, this
daughter of Hamburg Is Just now nt her
beat. She won the Brighton mile Wednes
day here nt Brighton beach, Incidentally
outpacing and outganilng the Idolised
Whimsical, winner of the Jockey Club’s
weight for age.
Lm-len Lyne, the "Gentleman Jockey of
Kentucky," will probably ride her.
Close up In the rating la* Whimsical,
daughter of Orlando, a son of Ormonde,
the “horse of the century."
First Mason represents C, E. Rowe, of
8t. Louis, while the west and south are
looking to Ram'a Horn, wlnnar of tho 1905
Montgomery handicap at Memphis, and tbe
beat horse from tbe Mississippi valley since
the advent of McChesney to uphold rac
ing prestige.
Then comes Tokalon, winner of the
Brooklyn handicap, hopelessly outweighed
under 11$ pounds. Fllpflap, who waa right
nt the wethers of Hamburg Belle and
Whimsical In tbe Brighton .Mile, gets In
under 106 pounds. 8hp won the Advance
stakes from, a fine field, and with Ram's
Horn, deserves to be considered as one of
the formidable outside chapes*. Miss
Crawford will start, and Bgancss will also
be In. Both are TsQaeasee-owned horses.
Ccdaestrome has speed for 7 furlongs.
Last, but not least. Is Dolly Spanker,
the representative of R. T. Wilson, Jr. If
Miller does not relinquish the chance of
further riches and glory by going off for
a holiday In New Hampshire, he will ride
Dolly Spanker, and for thla reason, if for
nothing else, the gelded eon of Kingston
la In line for a strong bit'of public gam
ble. "Play Miller, never mind the horse,"
Is the slogan In the grand-stand these
days.

Oxford, Ga., July 14.—In a one-sided eon
test, the Covington baseball team defeat

went to pieces, and Covington had easy
By J. 8. A. MACDONALD.
New York, July 14.—The Eaat la bowing
and scraping to tbe West Just now. Tbat
Is, ao far aa the turf Is concerned. Once
again after a lapse of many years two dis
tinctively Western race horse products are
running over tbe flower pf the metropoll-
tnn sTabW Luring tho In ten days,
(tain's Horn, winner of the 1905 Montgomery
handicap at Memphis, Tenn.. and Sir Huon,
victor In the last Kentucky Derby at Louis-
Tllle, Ky., have shown fully the mettle and
the good thoroughbred substance within
them by simply toying with strong fields
of local horses of their age and respective
class.
Both Ram's Horn and Sir Ilnon took
high-class honors with clean heels during
tbe last ten days. Ram'a Horn won tbe
Boy Ridge handicap Monday at Sheepshead
Boy In a romp.
While the doggedly provincial New York
ers plied thousands and thousands of dol
lars Into tbe betting ring on Bedouin, at
3 to 1. Bookmakers “Jimmy" Dnckwortb,
“Charlie” Ellison, “Johnny" Fay, George
C. Bennett and Bookmaker “Jack" Sbehan
waited until Bookmaker "BUI" Cowan, the
richest and reputed wisest money handler
In the ring, had posted 4 to L Then come
the educated Western play.
Tbe aforementioned element plugged the
4 to 1 down to 12 to 5 at the very close.
After the smoke had cleared, Cowan
stood a $22,000 loser, while Tyler, Lichen-
ateln. Rose and Ilanff, other strong book
makers, also showed deficits to tbe play
of tbo race.
W. 8. Williams substituted Shaw In place
of Perrlne, who bad done moat of the
riding when Rmn’e Bfiffl bad op the colors
at New Orleans. Ram's Horn ran bis
characteristic race. Cedarstrome, Bedouin
and LoglstUla made all the early running
and when the field had straightened out for
tne run home through the stretch. Shaw
shook up Ram's Horn. With hla ears
pricked back as if he liked the Job on
hand, the big striding fellow Just “ate up"
tbe front runners, one by one, until be
found himself In tbe lead long before tbe
finish. Then he come home on the bit.
Sir Ilnon's vindication came with tho
running of the $17,000 Commonwealth han
dicap of a mile nnd a qnnrter for three-
year-olds and upward. Here again the
New York speculators couldn't aee the pos
sibility of a Kentucky Derby winner rang
ing alongside tbe runner-np to a Brooklyn
handicap and a Suburban handicap win
ner. So It waa when betting enst*#d on
the race. Sir Hnon went from 12 to 1 to
30 to 1 In some books at the close of bet
ting, while Dandelion, whose second to
Go-Between In the Suburban handicap h»4
been bis previous performance, stood a 12
to I favorite. Sir Ilnon had run the Sat
urday before In the Advance 8lakes, where
Flip Flap won with Whimsical second and
The Quell third. Troxler rode a poorly
Judged race, getting him into numerous
pockets and making two or three different
runs for the leadership.
Sir Hnon trailed his field for awhile and
then finished In the rack. Then came a
week of light galloping before tbe Com
monwealth handicap of Saturday, July 7.
This week Improved Sir Huon very much,
for he came to the post perspiring freely
nnd like the proverbial "house afire," Trox
ler waited on tbe early pace, but drew up
coming Into tbe stretch. A quarter of a
mile from the finish Dandelion fell with
four of the contenders within two heads
of him. Sir Huon was on the outside and
gaining In every Jump. Of coarse when
Dandelion went down It was all over hut
tbe cashing of Sir Huon beta. He woo
going away. However, I feel the beat horse
In the race waa Sir Huon and he would
have beaten Dandelion to a moral certainty.
Between Ram'a Horn and Str Huon tbe
local handicap hornet and the local three-
year-olds will be kept hopping In order to
protect the home laurels.
Some Dope and Then Some More Dope
Bob Wallace ought to make good
tbe Southern. He has been right at the
top of the South Atlantic In batting and
bis fielding and base running are said to
lie good. If Billy Smith can bold him
down ae ought to make a wonder.
Hughes, Zeller, Sparks, Childs and Dug
gan Is a pitching staff .of not unusual
brilliance.—Birmingham News.
They “Is," "is" they? Well, we should
be pleased to know what team In tbe
league has a better lot of pitchers?
Some advice to "Little Eva;" If you
warn to produce happiness in a vacuum,
get slaughtered. The Georgian writer and
the New Orleans scribes will be happy.
Some of these wondsra could make more
money with a sideshow than at anything
else.—Birmingham exchange.
There they go again, judging Atlanta
salaries by those In Birmingham. And,
anyway, all we said was that one no-hlt
game did not make a man the best pitcher
In the league.
The management of the Gulfport team
made a deal with Jackson before that
club left Gulfport whereby Collins was
bought outright from Jackson. Collins re
lieves Ison, who has been released.—New
Orleans ricayune.
Tha Fourth of July receipts this year In
tbe South Atlantic were very large. The
receipts In Snvannah amounted to $1,5
261.16; in Charleston to $965.S0, and in
Macon to $800.85, making a total of $3,-
027.80. Of this sum, each club gets $504.64,
as the receipts are poled on that day.—
Exchange.
Cr Seymour has l»een sold to the New
York Giants. In addition to cosh, Cln-
clnsti will get a player from New York,
and that player will probably be a catcher.
Atlanta Is fast coming back Into tbe
elite, and before many moons with the
assistance of a friendly bleacher (It la
Ittlleved the boms fanatics will support
tbe club after Its return) will come back
up near the top.—Birmingham •News.
Thanks. We sort of think so ourselves.
Has the wonderful blnff of Masnger
Charles Fra ok, of New Orleans, caused
Billy Smith to have an acute case of cold
feet? This Is the question of questions In
the Southern League today.
If Billy Smith refuses to file charges
against Frank to the effect that the lat
ter won a game from Atlanta by using
Illegitimate balls, la It natural to believe
that Smith' has some good reason tar
falling tQ do so? If the charges are not
preferred, then It Is natural to auppose
that Smith has talked further than the
proof at hand would permit, or that the
Atlanta mogul Is fearful of getting Into
hot water himself.—Birmingham Age-Her
ald.
Such talk Is piffle of the most diluted
order.
After the New Orleans Incident, Presi
dent Joyner, of the local club, sent a
letter to President Kavnnaugh, of the
Southern League, giving a full statement
of Billy Smith's vjews on the New Or
leans atrocity nnd tbe finding of the de
fective sent to tbat city. In tbat letter
he asked for a complete Investigation.
If that was not filing charges and ask
ing for an lnveslgatlon, then what was
It? If there Is anything more that the
local association can do to get the matter
thrashed to the bottom. . we r should he
glad to hear VronTBIrmlngtism'bn the sub-
Ject. _ ^
* Atlanta hai the figures now. Will tbe
boys own up, and tip those hats?—Bir
mingham Ledger.
We will. Excise na.. Our mistake.
It'a a sort of useless proposition to cry
ont against an umpire's decisions, because
It never does any good, unless a game
Is protested at tbe time exception !■ taken
to the ruling of the league's official arbiter,
and even then It Is a most unsatisfactory
performance. As a general thing. It Is
better to grin and bear It, and bopc for
better luck next time.
But there are exceptions to this, as to
all other rules, nnd It would not be prop
er to let Ffenninger's farcical decision ia
tbe seventh Inning pass without comment.—
Montgomery Journal.
Say, old man, that "umpire robbed us"
excuse has been stricken from the “ex
cuse books" everywhere but in Montgom
ery and tbe huah towns.
Even a beginner ought to know that a
protest based upon on error of Judgment
on the part of an umpire has no more
chance of being sustained than a snowball
tins of lasting In tbe proverbial place.
Elmer Batea, of The Cleveland Press,
waa married Thursday to Bliss Laura Me*
Dill. BIr. Batea was lu Atlanta this spring
with tbe Cleveland team, and much of his
stuff was used In the local papers. He
made a great hit with his “Little Old
Blan" stories. Mr. Bates has been writing
baseball for Cleveland papers for more tbao
twenty years.

The other winner, of tbe tournament

The tournament just closed has been the
