T HE Atlanta club bought a cou
ple of players out of the Kitty
Leagua last seaaon. And witn
ail due regard for the general sit
uation of the citrus crop they ware
the finest lemons ever gathered since
the antl-boob law went into effect.
At the same time the Crackers
were gamering those wondei per
formers, Lyons and Johnson, the Vol
unteer club bought a young hurl r
from Hendersonvule. He was a skin
ny. unimprec«ive looking youth, u)
slab-sided and pasty-fa<*»d that up j
In the Young Cat League they called
him "Bilious” Beck.
Atlanta’s Kitty graduates are gone
now—whither or whence no man list- I
eth and no man gives a hang. But j
Nashville has hung onto this Beck !
lad. And to-day he leads the South- j
em League hurlers with five straight
victories to his credit. He copped off!
the last one yesterday, at the expense j
of the faltering Crackers, 2 to 0.
sea
TJECK'S start In the high life of »h ■
South . lmost equals that of A1
Dermareo’s famous get-away last
year—a start that gave A1 enough
Impetus to reach the big leagues.
In five games he has allowed six
runs.
in five games he ha-s allowed JO
hits—an average of five to the game.
Three times, April 12, April 17 and
April 21, he won 8 to 2. His last two
games have been shut outs.
And never lived a lad who shows'!
lees stuff to the naked eye.
When Berk begins to warm up 1:*•
works like an outfielder. He has n »
more wind-up than a marble statue,
He grabs the hall and throws it
that's all. You keep wondering when
he's going to throw one hard. But
he never does.
Beck makes no effort at strikeouts.
He Just lets 'em hit. The fielders d*
the rest. And hand this one to tin
Schwartzies—those bullies can sure 1 }
held that hall.
Right now Beck looks like the BIO
pitching find of the season. He Is
mighty small to be ^ successful hur!-
er—but they can’t beat him, and
that's what he is paid for—paid at
least 112(7 a month, I have no doubt. |
* • •
B RADY probably considered himself
a somewhat abused man to lose |
that ball game. He allowed seven j
hits—never more than one to an in
ning. save just once. He walked only
four men and only one of the four
scored. He hurled almost airtight
ball—but yet he was beaten. He had
behind him the club that the records
show' to be the best sluggers in the
league but they couldn’t deliver an/
runs.
Toward the end t the old bt’l
game the Crackers threatened noisi
ly a couple of times. In the sixth the
Trackers made twm hits and had
"Welchonce, the league’s best hitter
in 1912, at bat. And nothing came of
it. In the eighth Beck walked two
hatters, after two were gone, an i
"YVhltey” Alpennan, a rough pinch
hitter was up. But again Beck land
ed his man. In the ninth the Crack
ers again theratened and in the pine 1
Dunn was sent in to bat for Kernan.
But Joe shared the fate of his prede
cessors in the pinch and lifted to thr
outfield.
• * •
I F you ask Bill Smith what hap
pened to his bal’ club lie will lay
the blame chiefly to the injury ■*
Bailey. The outfielder has a badlj
sprained foot and will be out of the
game two weeks perhaps.
"If we'd bad old Bailey in there
with his hittin' says Bill, “wed
sure have ” n. . tuen lie just groan*.
• • • •
B ILL SCHWARTZ believes he hAs
a pretty good ball club. "Wan
’til! we get hitting.'’ says Bill. “We'll
show ’em.'’
"My pitching staff." says the "Boy
Manager" of the Volt, "is better than
Bill Smith's which isn’t saying . >
much either. My team can field. If
wo get hitting they will never head
us."
Schwartz stuck in Young yesterday
to get the benefit of hit hitting and
‘’Del" managed to deliver one sin
gle and to walk once. James has
been in a batting slump and unless
he shows signs of hitting may not
be put back in the old ball game.
• • •
|T Is worth noting that the three
* defeats by Nashville carried the
Crackers out of the league lead -a
position- they have occupied since the
season started.
SHOTTEN LEAVES BROWNS.
CHICAGO, April 30. Bert Shotten,

s relative. He will rejoin his team

COLUMN-
p IX American lightweights arc named In a challenge issued b.v Freddie
V Welsh through his manager, Harry I'oilok, yesteday. The Knglish
" champion, who ban beaten the lightweight litle holders of Knglmid,
Australia and France, and who got a twenty round decision over Willie
Ritchie, the present world's champion before the latter defeated Ad Wol-
gast, names his prospective opponents in this order:
beach Cross, Jack ftritton, Tommy .Murphy, Joe Rivers, Willie Ritchie
and I’ackey McFarland.
It is a case of money with the British champion, as it is with all boxers.
He has no feeling of enmity toward any of the boxers named, but ho oonfl
dently believes that he can whip them all, which will justify his claim to
the world's championship. Furthermore. Welsh is prepared to make 133
pounds ringside for all but McFarland, who can get a match at 135 pounds
scaling a* 3 o’clock In the afternoon.
Welsh defeated dross on points several years ago when I .each wasn’t
an experienced lightweight, dross lias made rapid strides in the past
year, and Welsh believes a bout with the dentist will draw a big.gate.
As for Rivers, Manager i’oilok writes that the Mexican's manager had
refused $5,000 to box Welsh in New York, saying that he preferred a twenty-
round battle on the coast.
"Rivers is nfrdld,” continues Welsh's manager. “If he will box my man
ten rounds in New York we will agree to go to California and bet our share
of the bout on the result of a twenty round encounter. Rivers has pocketed
nearly $10,000 for meeting dross and he owes it to the New York sporting
public to accept. Welsh's challenge."
Champion lUtchie has been (lodging all challengers for many weeks
because lie is making cosey coin on the stage. Rut Welsh now offers to
let him name llie weight conditions Welsh and Ritchie, if they should
clash in a ten round bout In New York, it would provide a real world’s
championship match, which, in the opinion of boxing managers, would draw
at least $30,000. Ritchie's mentor. Hilly Nolan, will find It difficult to side
step Welsh's proposition unless he demands too much money.
It Is generally conceded that Welsh is McFarland’s most capable rival.
They have boxed three times, fifty-live rounds in all. and the ipiestion of
supremacy still remains in some doubt. McFarland gol a verdict in ten
rounds several years ago. after which there was a twenty live round draw
in I .os Angeles and a twenty round draw in Umdon.

WJ HKN " men »'*' s lls far ,ls Calgary, Alberta, for a fight, as is Hie ease
W of blither McCarty, it Is either because he loves a light or for just
the opposite reason. In ibis case we will only mention that he is to meet
the winner of the Morris I’elky fight, and leave the verdict without eon
stltuents.
*. n ».
<t»HK Inculcating of those principles of fair play and inanllnes- is about
1 to gel n terrific push from behind. Tommy Hums is going to make
mutches out on the coast. If Tommy does as well for the fighters he pro
motes as he did for himself lie will lie a popular inculcntor. His princi
pled always were that the fighter with less reputation should always lay
down to tile fighter with the greater reputation, and nothing could he fairer
or manlier than that.

"I am 28 years old. and have
lived here all ray life, and my
friends and neighbors know how I
i-uffer^d for several years from a
dreadful case of stomach and liver
trouble. It seemed no matter what
1 ate would not agree with nie.
Everything soured on my stomach
and caused gas to form. This gas
would distress me terribly and
pressed against mv heart, causing
pain*, palpitation and difficulty in
breathing. Often these attacks
would also come during the night.
In the morning 1 would usually
awake with n dull headache and
generally tired feeling. My tongue
was very heavily coated and my
breath bad. One day I was told
to give Quaker Extract a trial. 1
did so. I bought a treatment at
Coursey Ac Mann's Drug Store. At
first T felt discouraged as ever, as
the remedy seemed to have no ef
fect on me at all. But after a few
days 1 noticed that my tongue was
getting clear. 1 seemed to sleep
better and feei more refreshed in
the morning. Gradually the gas
stopped forming, and oh. my. what
h relief thfj* wa*4 And thus 1
kept growing bertc 1 ventured
to eat some boiled cabbage, a thing
1 had not dared to do for years.
As this did not distress me in the
slightest, I realized that my stom
ach was strong and healthy again.
Since then 1 have been eating any
thing served to me at home. I
thank Quaker Extract for my
cure."
If you suffer from stomach,
liver, kidney, catarrh, rheumatism
or blood troubles, you should call
at Coursey Nr Miinn's Drug Store,
29 Marietta Street. You can obtain
Quaker Extract at 6 for $5.00, 3

AS A B. B. SCRIBE WOULD WRITE 1
IT.
Oh, somewhere in this l*. S. A., Old Sol, !
the well-known sun.
Is there with ail his old-time stuff— j
J. Pluv. is on the run.
Somewhere the Joys have chased the
Glooms and do the turkey trot,
But Glooms are on a rampage here j
athwart our baseball lot.
It happened thus: With two defunct j
and all the hassocks jammed
When some big boob named Casey up
and thrice he wildly slammed;
He might have copped the pastime with
his bludgeon then and there,
But, as we said before, he whiffed the
ozone islang for air).
Ty Cobb having signed hie contract
and saved the nation. Detroit will now
resume its customary place on the map.
Umpires in ice cream raiment may be
tolerated, but we shall entes a frenzied
protest if they adopt walking sticks. So
there!
With umpires wearing white scenery
one is led to w'onder whether the ath
letes will be fined if they remark,
"Whoops, my dear!”
Cy Young has joined the Federal
league, but he was not always thus.
Time was when he was afflicted with
intelligence.
Another crool blow to the national
pastime. Alma College, which is In
Michigan. has absolutely prohibited
Sunday baseball.
One might be forgiven for indulging
in a few chortles when a wrestling pro
moter complains of a bum house, might
one not?
We should hate to lose money, after
the manner of a baseball magnate. It
would cost us so much to pay our in
come tax.
