ANOTHER MYTH HAS EXPLODED FRANK’8 DREAM THAT HE HELP- ED JORDAN OUT OF TROUBLE PROVE8 A MI8TAKE. The pleasant llttla fiction of Charley Frank's that It was through hltu that Otto Jordan secured his tiond after the "rubber ball Incident" In New Orleans proved to be without foundation—like the average myth. The writer talked with the man In New Orleans who furnished the money, and he states not only that Frank had nothing to do with It but that his action In putting up the coin nearly cost hlin hla job taking tickets at Charley Frank's park. Otto Jordan Was sore proper when he saw what a Marietta paper- had to any about Nap Rocker and ills connection 'with the Atlanta team while Otto was managing It. "I’ll bet a hundred dollars to a tin dime that Rucker doesn't make good," said Otto. "They can call me a bnnehend If they want to. That doesn't change It at all. Rut Rucker fa no p/tcfier and wftaf they will do to him In the f>lg league will be something awful." "Yes," chimed In Cleorgo Winters, "nnd I’d like some of that Bet. too. When he gets to pitching In the big league some big guy will get on the side lines nnd enll hlut a ‘blntikety Idnnk Hoosler blankety-blank.' and Nap will go to pieces, lie never will stick." Artie Rrouthera Is aore at Charley Frank good nnd proper, nnd snya he will not be hack with "that Dutchman" neat year If be can help It. Drouthers Is a good ball player, but he has not been showlug It In his games with New Orleans. Crosier nnd Jordan, the "candy moguls," have decided to stay In baseball during the rest of the season, owing to the fart thnt their new store will not ta ready for use until after the middle of September, When the season ends, however, the "soda mer chants" will get busy at their new Job.

Ala bama St., opp. Century Building. Watch Brotman Grow By Private I/eased Wire. Goldfield, Nev., Sept. 4.—Joe Gana Is lightweight champion of the world. Yesterday he defeated Battling Nelson in a fight which went 42 rounds. The decision was given on, a foul, but the blow which Nelson landed on Guns’ groin was evidently a deliberate foul and was presumably hit to save Nelson from the knock-out which seemed In evitable. Gans had tho best of It all the way, though Nelson fought with rare pluck and forced the fighting us long ns his strength lasted. Nelson received $22,- 600 as his share of the purse and Gans received $11,000. About 8,600 persons saw the fight. By GEORGi 8ILER. By Private Leased Wire. Goldfield, Nev., Sept. 4.—It was un questionably one of tho greatest fights since the first boxing glove was made, marred only by the rough work of Nelson. I never saw two gamer or greater fighter* tn action, and though the bout terminated in a very unsatisfactory manner, there can certainly be no question in the minds of those who saw the light that the best man won. though he won on a foul. But for the fact thnt Gans never appeared to be hurt, excepting possi bly in two or three rounds In the twenties, I would never have permitted Nelson to carry on his foul tactics os long as 1 did. But ns It was a grand battle nml as Nelson’s constant but ting and roughing did not uppear to materially Injure Gans’ chances 1 nat urally slid not want to deprive the crowd of the ring battle of a century. Gans fought the kind of a battle that makes friends with the crowd, nnd therefore a clean, sportsmnn-llke fight. His ring generalship was without parallel. When weary he permitted Nelson to hug and wrestle, but he let Nelson do the work and husbanded his own strength. When he felt that he had mated he cut loose with the finest exhibition of clean nnd accurate hit ting thnt I hnve ever seen. Deliberate ami Incessant fouling Is not an Indication of courage, but taking the beating that Nelson did nnd coming back for more, coming back so strongly thnt he several times seemed n winner, certainly Is. As to the linn! foul which cost the tight, I am compelled to side with the great majority, who believe that the foul was deliberate and premeditated. Nelson was beaten at the time and I do not think could have lasted much longer. WHAT NOLAN 8AY8. By Billy Nolan. By Private Leased Wire.

My business Is fighting, 0 0 and all 1 want to do now Is some O 0 more of It with Gans as the other 0 0 party In the fun. Everybody who 0 0 Is any Judge of condition knows 0 0 thnt Gans could not possibly have 0 0 lasted more than three rounds 0 0 longer, and I felt as though I 0 0 could light all night. O 0 Referee Hller says that I hit 0 0 Gans low, and what he says goes 0 O for me. I agreed to let filler act 0 0 as Judge In the battle, and 1 don’t 0 0 wnnt to go behind what he says. 0 O But I certainly was surprised 0 0 when he ordered me to my corner. 0 0 I was sure that I had landed 0 0 square In Gans’ stomach. That 0 O was the spot I was playing for In 0 O the closing rounds, and every time 0 O I landed I could see that It hurt 0 O the '’dingy." I saw a good open- 0 O Ing, and I let go a wallop that I 0 0 hoped would end the show, and 0 0 the next thing 1 knew' the fight O 0 was Gans’. 0 0 Nobody can tell me that I can 0 0 not beat this fellow. I will admit 0 0 that he gave ine a harder fight 0 0 than I thought he would, but I 0 0 know how' to fight him now, nnd 0 0 when we get together again I will 0 O bet my clothes that I stop him In- 0 0 side of twenty-five rounds. 0 O I want to take back one thing I 0 0 said about Oans some time ago— 0 0 that he Is not game. He and Jim- 0 0 my Britt arc two of the gamest 0 O men I ever faced, and 1 thought 0 0 both of them were yellow until I 0 O got them Into a finish fight. I 0 O beut Britt and T cart beat Gans. 0 0 I had him licked when I hit him 0 0 too low', or they say I did any- 0 0 how, nnd I lost. About this but- 0 0 ting nonsense, I nm getting sick 0 0 of that. Becnu.se I keep rushing 0 0 my ipan all the time they say that 0 0 I am deliberately ramming him. 0 O 0 00000000000000000000000000 YANKEE BOATS BEAT GERMANS By Private Leased Wire. Marblehead.

The exhibition at Piedmont park Monday nftcriHoii may not have looked very pro fessional to the fans who had loafed all tbe morning, eaten a nice dinner and then gone peacefully to the park. It was another story with the Crackers. They pulled out of New Orleans early Sun day night, after, having played a tiresome double-header on n terribly hot afternoon.

Nothing has been heard of Bug Raymond, lie was ordered to report here, but bai not shown up. New Orleans baseball writers will b# greatly surprised to know thnt Morse hni turned up and thnt he played In Mondavi game. They had It figured out down In tba Crescent City that Morse had Jumped and that he was not roiulug back to the At lanta team again this season. The New York Amerlcsus are working hard to get Tom Hughes tack to finish nnt the senson with them, but Billy Smith ain't see It that way, nnd the redoubtable Tom my will be there at the finish.

Memphians Play Ball and Win From Tired Crackers T. ROOSEVELT'S 80N WA8 AT RINGSIDE By C. E. VAN LOAN. By Private Leased Wire. Goldfield, Nev., Sept. 4.—This Is wny thnt Joe Gans won the light-weight championship In the forty-second round of one of the greatest tattles on record. Gans, who had been getting the tatter of It. started the round with 11 left to the face nnd they clinched. Nelson had hi head on tin ns* shoulder, and his arms down. Several Units he hit Gans below the talt, apparently feeling for a vital sjHit. At Inst, he drew tack his right nml bit Gans a vicious blow square In the groin. The colored Iniy sunk to his kite and rolled over on Ills back. Referee Slier, without hesitation, ordered Nelson to his comer, and awarded the fight to Gnus on a foul. The blow was clearly observed by every one in the arena, and noue of the specta tor* ottered n protest when the dadulon was rendered that elided the long-drawn- out battle. While Nelson has lost on a foul, the light leaves no doubh which was the tatter of tho two men who met lp-fore 8,6ft) s|>ectn- tors here last night—it vast plctureihpie crowd, In which the rough, armed men of the plains and the mountain* and the dapper men from the big cities wen* shoul der to shoulder—In which.

It was hardly that the Atlanta players were stiff and stupid on account of their long nnd tiresome ride, because no team that ever got on a bull field put up more nclntlllaut preliminary practice, but something was sure wrong Monday after- noon when the Crackers dropped the La bor day .buttle to Memphis by thu score of 4 to 1. Those fans who put credence In signs, portents and hoodoos would doubtless as sign the loss of the gntne to thu past rec ord of the Atlanta team, which—with but few exceptions—has never won before a big bollduy crowd. At nay rate, the team played very poor Lj*cball, being outpoluted all round by thu Memphian*. Harley pitched a splendid game and de served to ivlu. But wooiy support put him to the bad In tbe first, sixth and uiutb Innings. I/tcbhprdt worked out a consummately skilful game. He has figured In more bril liant games this year, but has never done headier or more effective work. Memphis began the game by scoring one run. Thiel drew’ four bad ones nnd went to second on Babb's out. Sid Smith threw to catch Thiel off second, but Jordan muffed and Thiel got to third. Harley then threw* to catch Thiel off, but Hoffiunu was usleep, and while the hall was mixing It up with the crowd Thiel scored. In the sixth, nfter nahb had filed out. Carter got a punk two-bagger Into the crowd, nud scored on Nadeau's liner, which Morse lost In the sun. Ninety-nine times out of n hundred, Morse would have caught the drive nud made n double play. In the ninth, Nadeau got nuother bum two-bagger, and went to third on Carey's sacrifice. Smith walked, and Hurlburt was retired. Iloffmnn made a poor throw of Llebhardt’a easy grounder, letting two res# come in. The only burst of offensive enthusiasm thnt Atlanta showed wna In the eighth, when, with two out. Winters and Croiler singled and Hurlburt threw wild to second, Ginger counting and Crosier being thrown out at third. Atlanta made five two-baggers off Lleb- hardt, but with men on base he was In vincible. Three times thnt renowned pinch hitter had opportunity to drive In runs that would have broken up the game, nnd thr**« times did Llebhardt make Frank Mort* hnuser pop up futile lufleld files.
