GRACKERSOPEN
SERIES WITH
mows
CHATTANOOGA. TENN,. Aug. 29.
The Crackers and Lookouts hook up
today in the first game of a series that
is likely to be replete with thrilling
sensations. These two rivals will fight
like pennant contenders to win. And
the fact that Billy Smith, now mana
ger of the Lookouts, but who next
season will lead the Crackers, will be
in a hard place, will make the series
all the more interesting.
A few of the local fans believe that
Billy will pull for the Crackers But
this is absurd Smith is absolutely on
the level, and he is going to do every -
thing in his power to grab a victorv
for his present charges.
Covaleskie is slated to oppose John
son in the fray today.
The series closes Saturday, and on
Monday the Crackers return home for a
chain of games with Memphis. Nash
ville and Chattanooga at Pome DeLeon
park. Then they hike over to Mem
phis for a series that winds up the
season.

enjoy perfect health. Decayed or im
perfect teeth are not only painful and
continuously annoying, but i positive
menace to health and even life.

first sign of decay have them treated
and save suffering. Or. if the teeth are
already in bad condition, have them at
tended to at once.
The modern scientific painless meth- J
nds in use by the Atlanta Dental Par- ;
lots rob dentistry of its former terrors. !
and the moat difficult operations are
performed quickly ami without pain.

1 Billy Evans and .lack Egan had a swell
time last Sunday afternoon. They watched
Ty Cobb umpire a semi-professional game
■in Washington. Cobb got $78.15. most!}
in nickels, as his share of the gate, and
■ had to lug it away in a dress suit case.
A lot of folks are tumbling io the fact
that the Barons are joke pennant winners.
H. T. McDaniel, New Orleans baseball
expert, in a recent article says in effect
that the only thing the Barons lack is
ability to bat. held, think and run bases.

The Sally league season ends Monday.
Labor day. with double-headers in three

Part of the Athletics* slump this year

Brooklyn has a girl pitcher. Miss Car

Mrs. Helen Hathaway Britton, owner
of the Cards, h.'j-- given her side of the
row with Bresnahan. She says that Roger
has made a poor showing with good ma

not been doing his since he tried to
buy the team and failed, she doesn't like
the idea of the world’s tour nor Bresna

Something to that, line of reasoning,
too.

M. Clark, a former resident of this city,
but now of Elizabeth. N. J., has arrived
here to visit friends and incidentally
to pa? his buriai expenses, he being
supposedly dead and buried for the last
six weeks. At about that time a man
was killed at Binghamton and through
cards in his pocket it was thought to be
Clark.
His sister was notified, went to Bing

her brother's. The burial was arranged
for and the sister paid the expenses.
The Big Race
Here is the newest dope on how the
“Big Five” batters of the American
league are hitting:
PLAYER. AB. H. P.C.
COBB 455 187 .411
SPEAKER 478 193 .404
JACKSON 461 170 .369
COLLINS 428 146 .341
LAJOIE 328 105 .320
Ty Cobb fell off a point yesterday
when he failed to get over but one hit
in four times up. But Speaker dropped
back a notch also. He was at bat six
times and secured only two hits. Col
lins did some more fine ciouting. He
faced the pitcher three times and made
two hits. Lajoie had a pretty fair day,
too. In eight times at bat he garnered
three hits.
MURPH! BEATEN
BHHffllN
RBI FIGHT
NEW IliflK, Aug 29. That Young
Brown, a newly risen lightweight from
the East Side, has a bright pugilistic
future in front of him was the univer
sal verdict today of those who saw him
shade Harlem Tompty Murphy in trn
hot rounds at the St. Nicholas Athletic
;Club last night. While Murphy claimed
a draw, he was a badly marked man at
the end of the contest.
Brown showed surprising speed ami
strength and at times had his opponent
puzzled. Boxing experts s„y that with
a little more experience Brown will
make himself a prominent figure in the
lightweight world.
George Kirkwood, of st. Louis,
knocked out Tommy Houck, a Philadel
phian, in the first bout of the night.
The fight ended in the sixth round.
In the windup. Willie Beecher, of the
East Side, defeated Tommy Ginty, of
Scranton, Pa. Beecher made a chop
ping block of Ginty's features.
JOE MANDOT IS WORKING
HARD FOR RIVERS BOUT
LnS ANGELES. Aug. 29. —Joe Man
dot. entirely recovered from a. slight
illness, put in a busy day at his train
ing eamp today.
"It's a strange fact, but this is the
first time that I've ever trained faith
full) for a ring contest," said Joe to a
vamp friend. "In New Orleans and
Memphis I never worried about beating
an opponent in six or ten rounds, and
consequently I was not only careless
in my training, but often I gave away
so much weight to my men that my
actions were nothing short of foolish."
Both Mandot and Rivers are figuring
on a short bout, each being confident of
winning Rivers expects to turn the
trick in ten rounds, while Mandot is
going to make an effort* to get it all
over with long before the half statioh
is reached. Neither is figuring on the
scrap going the full distance.
