The war lb the Houtbern V«eague la on, and an sure as the sun sets In the west something Is going to drop. Why don't Urn administration papers ad vance some run non why Kavnimtigh should be -re-elected? Instead of attempting to act na press agents for ‘KaVnnnugh, they har angue the writers of the opposition and call them "liars and scoundrels." They know exactly where they arc nnd they ore on the defensive. As sure ns the Houthern League begin* operations next season a new president will Im nt the head.—Birmingham News. If Utile Hock goes out of the league. ten It Is likely that President Knvsnnugh will resign. And It seems rather certain that Little Bock will go. The Georgian has certainly broken Into the limelight In a hurry. The proposition to go to the Houth Atlantic has stirred up the natives. Well, 1 guess nmyl>e New Or leans, Hhreveport, Memphis et al. are not quaking In their boot*. The Houthern Longue without Blrmlnghiun nnd Atlauta would Iko like n tmnt without motive power. The Houthern would uot last alx weeks af ter the withdrawal of the spinal column.— Birmingham ledger. Wouldn't n league made up of Hhreveport, Moutgoinery, Little Bock, Nnshvllle, .Mem phis and New Orleans be n pitiful object? Without Atlanta and Birmingham there would uot be much Houtbern League. The New Orleans papers have now taken up the tnsk of proving that Monsieur Charles Frank Is the most gentlemanly and sportsman like bull player now'gracing (7) the game In Dixie. After having completed this Job these same writers expect to prove conclusively that the moon Is simply a hunk of llmburger Instead of a hogshead cheese. The latter will be a cinch In com parison with the former.—Macon Telegraph. They'll prove lb too. to their OWN ant* (•faction. And then they will accuse all those who do not believe It of being fools, liars and dope fiends. The New Orleans Dally States says that Atlanta will not get out of the league. The Chnrleys say that she will l*j thrown out. Since when did Yhe Charleys know what tho directors nre going to do? Did Charley Frank tell his two Chnrleys on The Htates Hint he wns going to throw out Atlanta? Atlnntn Is a better bnll town than New Or leans, nnd If cither lind to go out- Birming ham would prefer that the yellows turn In their checks first. Mississippi mud Is being »lrunk down III New Orleans and It Is having u yellow efrect on certain persons. —Birmingham Ledger. If current reports are true, the baseball writer of Tho Ledger Is In error. Humor has It that they don't drink water In New Orleaus—nor smoke tobacco. The more wo see of Atlanta the more we feel sorry for her.—Montgomery Journal. If Montgomery'• sympathy was not so humorous It would be galllug. Yes, It Is true Birmingham delights In winning from Atlanta. It Is Just a good feeling that can't be helped. Winning and drubbing, however, are two different things. The local fans witnessed the latter duriug tho series Just closed. Atlanta Is playing gingerless. Too many errors nre lielng -made and the pitchers nre not being supported. Hoffman, ou third, Is nn amateur of the first water. Wallace. In the field, apparently Is uot n giant nt the bat. He fields moderately well.—Binning- limn News. If The News considers It a "drubbing" when n te.iin win* four game* by a total margin of five runs, wonder what It would coustder close games? SOUTHERN. Club— Played. Won.

II.—In one of the most desperate fights ever seen ly this part of the country. Kid Hermnn, of Chi cago, wns awarded the decision over Bennie Ysnger, also of Chicago, the once "Tipton Hlnshcr," after tea rounds of hard fighting here last night. Hermnn started out like a whirlwind, lauding repeatedly. Ysnger did not show any of his old-time form until after the fourth rouud, wheu a cllpplug pace was set SPORTING NOTES. According to Cotch Bill R*ld, tha Harvard football squad will atari prac tier September 12. Joe Thoinax and Joe Walcott may hook up on Labor day. Jack O'Brien has taken another trip to England.

Standing a bad last In team batting and fighting for third place In the American League race 1a out of the ordinary In baseball. By J. S. A. MACDONALD. Saratoga, N. T., Aug. 11.—The Sara toga Special, which together with the old time Travers Stakes, sufficed to draw one of the moat notably brilliant throngs ever seen upon an American race course here this afternoon, la re garded In turf circles as the only real sporting race on the calendar. While It la a rich fixture, there are a score of other events Infinitely more valuable. For Instance, the owner of tho winning horse in the Saratoga Spe cial yesterday received about 318,609, while In the Great Trial at Sheepa- head Bay, 320,000 went as first money, and In the recent Brighton Handicap old Captain “Sam" Williams took down 320,000, after the late lamented Ram's Horn had come home on the bit. The charm of the Saratoga Special Is Its true sporting character and the fellow ship which attaches to It. Every owner who cares to participate In the race enters what Is called e “nomination" along about the early days of .May. A nomination consists of naming two colta or fillies. For In stance, two nominations would make four horses eligible for the contest, and so on. An owner sends to the secretary the Saratoga Association for tho | m . provement of the Breed of Horae, , check for 31.000 for each nomination The race Is for 2-year-old fillies, cu. and geldings, at 6 furlongs. The onn- er of the first horse home takes the entire sweepstakes and a beautiful sil ver tankard worth 22,600. The Saratoga Special waa conceived and established by the late William C. Whitney. Last year Mohawk II won It for the Messrs. 8andford of New Amsterdam, N. Y. In 19ot James R. Keene's peerless 8y,onby captured It, while In 1201 John E. Mad den carted tjie silver trophy to Ken tucky on the strength of Aristocracy getting home first. And no active race goer forgets the year before thst. when the Whitneys and the Kecn»s fought It out In stern rivalry, wil. llani C. Whitney had In Payne, while his son, Harry Payne Whitney, and Herman B. Duryea were represented Tty the great colt Irish Lad. The Messrs. Keene stood pat with the nilr Dazzling which afterward raced In Eng. land. Burns on Payne bumped Daz. zllng, and Tqmer brought home | n front the gallant Irish' Lad. Then fob lowed a warm aftermath. The winner of today's renewal of the Saratoga Special wilt no doubi to on to fame and renown later this sea son and again aa a 3-year-old In 1907. DISMISSAL OF BUCKLEY CREATES LOTS OF TALK Other cities lieslde Atlanta ore Incensed over the summary dismissal of Umtdre Buckley. In fact, outside of New Orleaus and the dtle* dictated to by Charley Frank, the opinion Is almost hut not quite unanimous that Buckley wns the best um pire In the league, and that there was no Justification for Ills dismissal. Here nre a few of the oplntoun: Birmingham Ago-IIerald: Many of Pres ident Knvnnnugh's supporters now bellevo that Frank ha* Influence over the league president. It 1s not that he suspended an umpire that the criticism comes. It Is toe- cause he suspended a man who did not let managers and players rule the field, and loecause It Is believed by many of the fans that the suspension was fathered by Manager Frank. Birmingham News: The dismissal of Um pire Buckley from the Houthern' League was the direct result of Knvaunugh-Frnnk politics. Tho young l»oy wns the victim of prejudice, and hu suffered because he wns honest. Roliert Ilsugh, president of the Birming ham club: "The complaint of the players naglnst Buckley was the best recommenda tion the official could have received." New Orleans States: The announcement made this morning that Buckley Is no longer a esar of tho Houthern League met with the approval of the New Orleans fans/ nnd President Karanaugh wns commended for his action In dismissing tho youthful umpire. New Orleans people who saw the Atlanta series In Atlanta a week or no ago state that Buckley deliberately rob- l»ed the Naw Orleans club In the Inst two games played In that town. Montgomery Journal: Karanaugh la after more umpires. He got rid of about the best one. In our opinion. Birmingham Age-Hernld: The Fast will now believe beyond A doubt that Frank holds a heavy hand over Judge Knvnnnugh. If Is now believed that Frank only could have Induced the president • to get rid of the befit man of his staff—the most con scientious man, at any rate. Birmingham Ledger: The good acts of President Knvanatgh and Charley Frank can Im» counted on one hand. Of these, tho greatest that they ever did was the firing of Umpire Buckley. Augusta Tribune: President Knvnnnugh has fired Umpire Buckley from the .South ern Longue. This young man wns consid ered the best umps In the circuit, but !*. cause he Incurred Charley Frank's dis pleasure, his summary dismissal followed. Hhreveport Times: Umpire Buckley haa nt last Iwen given the tin-can degree. Al though his work has been unsatisfactory all season. It Is most probable that the habit of cursing bnll playern on the field wns most directly responsible for his dis missal. Umpire Buckley, In letter to President Knvnnnugh: “I regret very much that I niu no longer a Houthern League offi cial. I know that, nt least, three mana gers had no use for me, not because of iny work, but because I was young. Now I itm no more on umpire In the Houthern League. It may plenae some parties, but I nm sure they are few. I am about to leave the Houth. I am satisfied my release haa not met with the approval of thou- sands. I thank those most sincerely who have already assured me that I was uot deserving of what I got after almost fire months’ service performed In a fearless and honest manner." Nelson Reaches Goldfield And Settles Down to Work By Privet, I.on«,d Wlra. Goldfield, Nev., Aug. 11.—Battling Nelson arrived from Reno ahortly be- fore midnight. “I am going into training at once to beat Gane, and I will do It to the beat of my ability,” aatd Nelson to a crowd which had gathered about the automo bile In which Nelson, Tex Rlckardz and Ben Rosenthal had gone to the train to meet him. “Gana will hove to fight when he cornea Into the ring. If he trlea to fake as he has done many times in the past he will have no aupport from me. 1 have always fought fair and I Intend to this time. My weight now- la only 124 pounds, so you see It will be easy for me to make the weight agreed upon. The time I fought Her rera at Butte I was not affected by the altitude and I do not expect It to have any effect on me now." Gana begins training this morning at Columbia, a' mile from Goldfield, and yesterday he spent taking In the mine town and shooting craps. Gana Is the first negro ever allowed to take a drink In a Goldfield saloon. 21.000 yesti wired 1500 tlmore. "This Is going to be a square fight and a fight clear up to the finish,” said Tex Rickards yesterday, "and I will put up 1500 cash with any man who wants to cover It and lenve it to the newspapers after the battle to decide whether I win or not. and here la the money." He skinned off fire one-hundred-dot- lar bills. “Wh are not going Into thle for the money that's in It, but to glre every man his money'a worth, and to let the world know that Goldfield la on the map." - “Another thing," aald Rosenthal, who helped to raise the purse, 'Is the fact that this fight will be conducted on a high-toned scale. Any man who usea ROY8TON WINS TWO. 8pednl to The Georgian. Royaton, Ga„ Aug. 11.—Royaton and Bowman played two Interesting games of ball this week. The first at Roy- ston on Monday was won by Royaton by a score of 6 to 3. Batteries, for Roy- ston, Cobb and Cheney; for Bowman, Colie and Pittard. The second was played at Bowman on Wednesday and resulted In a score of 7 to 5, Royston having the larger score. This game wee hard fought, Royaton batting out the victory In the eighth end ninth Innings. Batteries, for Royaton, Cobb and Cheney; for any language at the ring side that would not be admissible will not he allowed to remain near the place. Some of the best men In the surrounding towns will be at the fight, accompanied by their wives and women friends, and we are going to make It ao that they can see the fight without any morij trouble than they would have In a theater." Fight Is about the only thing that Is talked about here. To Illustrate Just how much Interest la taken In the fight note the following: L. A. Finnegan, one of the leading mining men and capitalists of Gold field haa been up at Lake Tahoe for a fortnight's vacation and got back last night. He has been out of reach of the papers and did not know w hat had been done In his absence. John Don- nellan, another of the leading men of the town, met Finnegan and re marked; "You were not here. Lou. and we Just put yout name down for a thous and to help along the fight." , "The gall of you fellows beats the band," said Finnegan, "and If you had the nerve to put me down for a thous and dollars, without saying a word to me about that. I’ll Just fool you a trip." "But," said Donnellan, "I thought you would”— “Oh, you did,” said Finnegan, "but It's my money and By gum I’ll Just fool you by paying the money," and ho did. Nelson will train at the "Crystal baths,” about a mile west of town and about three miles from the Gans quar ters, north of town.
