A nvAW) I D}/A\ SAM CRANE, W<J MS BETH, rN( /))< TT LETT HOOK SOL FLEX McElveen Declares He Will Get Dobbs; Billiken Manager Fined THE feud-fight between John Dobbs, manager of the Mont gomery club, and Humpty Me Elveen, the. Crackers* third base man, whose eye he closed in a. row in front of the Aragon hotel two nights ago. had one conclusion in Recorder Broyles’ court this morn ing when Dobbs was fined $50.75 for the' assault and Norman Elber feld, of the Montgomery team, paid 525 75 for his part in the affair. Joe Bills and Raleigh Aitchlson. the other players charged with partici pation in the attack upon McEl-. veen, were dismissed. Dobbs and Elberfeld pleaded guilty, though Elberfeld told the recorder that he had no direct part in the fracas. McElveen failed to appear in court to prosecute, though in a statement made at the Aragon hotel he declared that the feud between him and Dobbs is by no means settled and, that he will have satisfaction from Dobbs 'ln his own way and at his own hands.” Will Get Satisfaction. Undoubtedly the friends of Mc- Elveen are urging him to a thor ough revenge upon the Montgom ery manager and have offered their aid. Trouble in some private meet ing or even upon the ball field to day is possible, though McElveen says he has asked his friends to let him attend to getting the satis faction. In the course of the trial of the two Montgomery men this morning Dobbs declared that he struck Mc- Elveen purely byway of defend ing the honor against Insinuations the Cracker player had made con cerning him. The recorder said that was an insufficient excuse for the blow. Did Not Telephone Dobbs.

That man hit me In the face with out any cause. If L can’t resent that assault personally as a man ' without the good of rhe-game being hurt, I.wan.t~to. know it; “That's a private assault Dobbs made on me—man to man. Well, I’m. a ball player, but Ml tell you again that that thing- is between Dobbs and me, and I'll settle it with • my own hands. Will Settle It Himself. ‘ That’s what I’ve told my friends when they’ve come to me by the dozen to tell me they wanted to help me get even with Dobbs. I've told them that I'm much obliged for their friendship and I don't re fuse their offer of aid. because I may need it. I can't tell about that, but this is something' I’m perfect ly competent to take care of my self, and I’m not going to tell you how or when I’ll do it; but I’m go ing to do it, and until I do it, there’s going to be no settlement of that feud.” ’ . ' ' “But you won’t have any trouble with Dobbs on the ball field, will you?" McElveen was asked. “I won't say about that. I'm go ing to be on the ball ground ready to play this afternoon, but I won’t say a word of what I'll do until I settle this thing myself.” THREE CARRY SAME NAME IN THE OLYMPIC EVENTS Three men of the name of Kohel maihen are entered to represent Fin land in the Olympics.

DETROIT, July 6.—8i1l Dineen had a tough time of it Wednesday There was continual kicking on Bill's judg ment on balls and strikes, but he. got in wrong when he called a balk on Kabler and ordered Moriarty to go to first. After “Morrie” started Bill chahged his mind and called him back. There was a long yell which got nobody anything. In the eighth inning Olson hit the ball on a line into left. The ball hit the foul line, scattered whitewash dust in all directions and bounded to the stands, an easy two-bagger. Bill called the ball foul and ordered Olson to bat again. The Swede then singled. NEW THREE-MILE RECORD. NEW ORLEANS, LA., July 6.—Os car Rabensteiner. of the Broadway Athletic club, set a new- Southern rec-, ord in a three-mile run in American Athletic Union contests at a Woodmen of the World festival here when he covered the distance In 17:13 from the scratch. The old record was 17:18. He was placed in "scratch" upon his own request after he had been allowed a handicap. MAY BE HE'S REAL LORD. James Esmond, shortstop of the Cin cinnati Reds, according to th»- old gen ealogy books in the public library, is either an English duke or very close to one. The records connect James by direct descent with Sir Jacques Esse monde. who came over to England with William the Conqueror. One of Sir Jacques Essemonde’s sons invaded Ireland, settled there, and established an Irish branch of the house. Since that time there have been both English and Irish Esmonds, both of noble con nection. Some of both houses came to America between 1700 and 1746, and the shortstop is descended from these Es monds. - si f »S5’ s 4S ° 1 -J - * ° na.

America’s best jockey, receives a retaining fee of $12,000 a year from H. C. Hallenbeck, a millionaire Eastern turfman, and yawns when the figure is mentioned, remembering the “good old days” when Sam Hildreth paid him $20,000 for the first ’call on his services and second and third call brought SIO,OOO and $5,000 respectively. Shilling hails from Paris, Texas, and owns a majority of the commercial en terprises of the place. There is a Shil ling grocery, a Shilling hardware store, a Shilling blacksmith shop and other Shilling places, started by the premjer jock, and some day he may own enough real estate to change the name of the totvn to Shilling. Jockeys like Shilling- command large sums for their, services, but as Fred Cook the old-line bookmaker, sagely asked: “What's the use owning a. good horse if you haven’t a good rider for him ?" Shilling pilots the Hallenbeck horse?,, including Worth, Adams. .Express. Fauntleroy, Prince Qgl and Azylade, And his owner believes $12,000 cheap for the master hand to guide them.

He married a-Cleveland, Ohio, girl and papa-in-law handed him SIO,OOO as a wedding present. DISTANCE IS SHORTENED FOR GRAND CIRCUIT RACE CHICAGO, July 6. —The American grand rircuit aeroplane race, to be held here this summer, may be for only 1,000 miles, instead of 1,810, as originally planned.

Smith, of Atlanta, is the tennis champion of the South. He won the title this morning in a giddy three-set match from C. M. Charest, also of Atlanta. Until today it was not certain but that Conrad Doyle, of Washington, last year, would come to defend his title. But he had not arrived this morning and local enthusiasts breathed easier. With two Atlanta men in the finals it was a cinch that the championship would remain in the Gate City. When it came to a show-down between Smith and Charest, the match ran true to dope, and Smith won in straight sets. Charest, clev er and experienced as he is, was unable to solve the puzzling serve of the redoubtable Smith. Nor did he have any great luck on his own serve. The first set went to Smith fi-love. In the next set Charest managed to cop a couple of games and in the third, going better still, he took three. This wqs the only event played in the morning. The feature matches of the day are scheduled for 3:30 this after noon. They are the finals in men’s doubles and the challenge round in women's singles. Both these events are among players very evenly matched and should be for blood.

Chronic Ulcers Mean Bad Blood If outside influences were responsible for chronic ulcers, then exter nal applications and simple cleanliness would be a curative treatment. But the trouble is always in the blood which has become unhealthy and diseased, and keeps the sore open by continually discharging into it the impurities and infectious matter with which the circulation is filled. Salves, washes, lotions, etc., may cause the place to scab over temporarily, but the blood is not made purer by such treatment and soon the old inflammation and discharge will .ya||return and the sore be as bad or worse than before. Nor will removing the place by surgical operation f I insure a cure; the cause still remains in the blood land the sore is bound to return. S. S.

THE SWIFT SPECIFIC CO., ATLANTA, CA. played yesterday. The men’s sin gles went to the final round. In the lower frame Carleton Smith, of Atlanta, defeated E. V. Carter, Jr., likewise of Atlanta, 8-6, 6-3. It was a brilliant match, played late yesterday afternoon, and fought to the finish. Both players are stars and both are more in clined toward brilliancy than steadiness They showed a lot of grand tennis and it was anybody's match until well into the second set. In the upper frame a brace of “southpaws” met, when L. D. Scott and C, M. Charest, both of Atlanta, battled for the honor of meeting Carleton Smith in the finals for the Southern championship. And some what to the surjirise of the talent, Charest was the winner. At one time the victor was a right-handed player of renown. He lost his right arm and was forced to leant the game all over again left-hand ed. This he accomplished surpris ingly well, as he demonstrated by downing Scott, who is a veteran and a player of great ability. The score in this match was 6-4, 6-3. The men’s singles consolation was brought down to the final round yesterday by the playing of the two semi-final matches. J. K. Orr, Jr., of Atlanta, defeated L.
