djlAliii BABB'S BURGLARS HAVE DEPARTED yb p SPORTS id TRAVELERS HERE FOR A SERIES VflW Edited By PERCY H. WHITING AUTOS RACE AGAINST RECORD FROM CHICAGO TO NEW YORK By Private Leased Wire. New York, Sept. «.—Two attempt* are now being made at the "Will o’ the Wlap" of the automobile world—the New York and Chicago record of 5* hour*. At the present writing, there la every prospect that one of them will be successful. One contestant for the speed honors Is Sherburn M. Beeker. the boy mayor of Milwaukee, who started from Fifty-fifth street and Broadway at midnight on Monday in n 50-horse power Pnpe-Toledo car. The other Is a Franklin 6-cyllnder car, which left Chicago at 2 p. m. yesterday. Mayor Beeker's attempt probably will be unsuccessful, as he smashed his car near Newburg. N. Y., and lost seven hours. The Franklin car Is the same that made the trans-continental record of fifteen days, two hours and twelve minutes from Ban Francisco to this city a few weeks ago. It arrived In South Bend, Ind., a distance of (0 miles. In three hours, and when last heard from was considerably ahead of the old record.

At no time during tho game did Capitol Avenue have n chance to wlu. Summary: Struck out by Cnllff 9, by Tenney 4; hltn off Cnllff 4, off Tenney 9. Tho following standing shows how the teams finished: Special to The Georgian. Nashville, Tenn., Sept. 5.—Captain Dan Blnke, of the Vanderbilt football eleven, has returned to the city nfter a vacation spent lu the moiiutnlns of Tennessee with n surveying party, *nnd In the near future will call his men out for practice on Dudley field. J)nn, together with his brothers, Hob and Vnugliu, has been roughing It. All three of these sturs nre as hard ns Iron, and will go Into the season of 1906 In better sbni>c than ever. Yaugbu Illake lias developed Into n strapping youngster ns big as Imn, for he tips the seules now at 165 pounds. Neither Kyle nor Jlniiny Hay- good will be back In college, and Vaughn will, therefore, be tried out nt quarter. He Is fast ou his feet, a great kicker (with the ball), and Is a sure tackier. It Is now stated that big Joe Pritchard, Vamly's giant tackle, will return to the university. Joe has been summering «. I Beersheba mountain, and weighs overall pounds. This should lie the banner year of I his football career, and an nll-southornt 1 place should go to him, If form countj | for anything.

W. NAUGHTON. By Private Leased Wire. San Francisco, Bept. 6.—Goldfield Is evi dently elated with the success It hnd In handling tho Ncismi-Gnns fight, and In tends to become r Ider for other pugilis tic events. Accor...ug to report. It has bid 930,000 for a nioteh between Jimmy Britt and Joe Gans, to take place somewhere around Christmas time. As yet, Britt has not received any offi cial offer, and feels disinclined to discuss the match. According to Willis Britt, who represents Jimmy In affairs of this kind, the Goldfield proposition will receive serious considera tion when It comes along. Bald Willis last night to the writer: "Jimmy told you Iwfore Gans and Nelson met that he would be ready to meet the winner, and his feelings have experi enced no chnuge. To put It frankly, he would have preferred Nelson to (Jans. Now, mind you, this Is not lieenuse bu figures Nelson would be an easier man to subdue than Gnus. After watching Gans closely throughout the fight nt Goldfield, Jimmy thinks he can outlmx tho negro. It's the feeling en gendered by 'the fight nt Colmn which makes my brother long for a return battle with Nelson. Ou account of Nelson's slump In prestige, we suppose a N'clsou-Hritt match Is out of the question nt present, and I have no doubt that Jimmy will be signed with Gans for his next contest. "I might say that It does not follow, of necessity, that Goldfield will In* the scene of the battle. The amateur exhibi tions here a few' nights ago showed thnt Han Francisco Is ready for.n big contest. there Is a prospect of bringing Britt and Gnns together." Though Willis did not say so, It Is be lieved thnt Jimmy Ilrltt Is not particularly anxious to engage lu a glove contest nt present. He will einluirk In a business en terprise In Han Francisco, and meanwhile will turn his Fillmore street flats Into cash. If the story told on Fillmore street Is cor rect, Britt will realise about $12,000 profit on the investment of $30,000 he made two years ago. As Goldfield has the pugilistic bee In Its iNiunet, It will probably secure a ring at traction for Christmas, if It loses thu Britt* Gnns fight. The fact thnt It has chosen a midwinter date proves thnt the lively mining camp Is satisfied If It enu get to gether a big enough crowd to fill Its arena without relying on visitor * * side the Goidncjd belt. MAXWELL GOES TO PITTSBURG Special to The Georgian. Montgomery, Ala., Sept. 5.—Maxwell, the Cotton States League twlrler, who has pitched such great Imll for Montgomery during the senson, will go to Pittsburg in a few weeks to finish out the season there. This Is a settled fact, notwith standing the fnct that McCloskey, of St. Louis, stated he had purchased him. The price paid for Maxwell was $2,500, and the first Installment has been paid. Mike McCann, w’ho was suspended by Mauager Mullaney while In New Orleans because he failed to show* up nt the games, Is said to have been In the city the latter part of lust week.

"Jordan Is one of the finest fellows that I know. . I admire him more than any baseball player I’ve ever met, and 1 think he’s true blue, all the way through. The Marietta paper had It all wrong.

The game nlsnimlcd In sensational field' lug. The catches tty Wltknni and Grady Rule In the outfield were easily the fea tures. For the Infield, the work of Wil liams, Lockhart and Riley, of tho Maddox- Uuckors, has not heeu equaled here be fore this season. McConnell, the crack shortstop for Blverdale, ulso starred. The pttcblug of Green was superb. He had the heavy hitting Cousins complete ly nt hl« tuercy. Time nfter time, when it lilt would have resulted In runs, bu would mow them down In one-two-three order.
