C hattanooga, tenn., July 22. That the. Immediate addition of material strength Is absolutely necessary not only to keep the Look outs In the race, but moreover to make them a first-division ciub, is being gradually conceded locally. The showing of the Lookouts in the week just passed, and, in fact, during the long home stay which closed with the Gulls, gave conclusive proof that the club does not possess the strength and stamina not only to rise In the percentage ladder, but even to hold its present position. Realising the general weakness of the club for the final spurt, Elber- feld has secured Dee Walsh from the ft. Louis Browms. but the acquisition of the league's fielding sensation is npt going to help the club to any material extent, as offensive strength .Is what is needed. Walsh can not be expected to hit over .250, although he will surpass Williams in fielding. Alberfeld and Elston, who represent about 50 per cent of the club's of fensive strength, can not be depended upon to any degree of certainty, be cause of their injuries. Elston has a bad leg, which has worried him for three seasons, and the member forces him to lay out so long that his bat ting eye is continually off form. The beaning of Elberfeld will undoubted ly affect him to some extent through out the entire season. The Lookouts must get another good hitter to pull through. It Is being gradually conceded here that Atlanta and Birmingham, al though there is considerable prej udice against both clubs, are the two teams which are to be the ultimate grapplers for the rag. They seem to possess the greatest strength, and are not being forced to spurt now as are Montgomery and Mobile. LANGFORD-MILLER GO OFF; NEGRO MAY BE BARRED SAN FRANCISCO, July 22.—Sam "Langford has been stamped an unde sirable in this city, so far as ring engagements are concerned. The board of supervisors have notified Promoter J. T. Mitchell, of the Na tional A. C., who planned to stage a four-round bout between Charlie Miller and Langford here Friday, that the colored heavyweight would not be permitted to enter the ring. This action was taken under a rul ing of the Police Commission, in charge of boxing contests, that fight ers whose names appear on the pro fessional “list” can not take part in the “amateur” four-round bouts. Langford’s name appears on the Po lice Commission’s “professional list." It was not made clear whether Sam might box in longer contests, though It is taken he has been barred from all bouts.

July 22.—James McAleer, present of the Bos ton Americans, refused to dis cuss the statement of Ban Johnson given out in New York, in which the league leader severely criticised Jim my for his action in releasing Jake Stahl. “There is nothing to say on the Stahl matter,” said McAleer. “The change in the club was pre cipitated by Stahl himself. ‘“Are you figuring on making a change in the managership of the team.’ he asked me in Chicago. “ ‘Not this season,’ I replied. “ ‘At the end of the year?’ he asked. “ ‘It is possible there may be a change then.’ I replied. “ ‘Well, in that case, said Stahl, ‘I might as well get. through now.’ “ ‘Do you mean that you wish to resign?’ I asked. “ ‘Pay me to the end of the sea son and I’m through,’ was the an swer. “So I gave him the money he would have drawn had he gone all the wky through to his release." McAleer stated that Carrigan will continue to manage the Red Sox the remainder of this season. “Whether or not he will manage the team in 1914 depends entirely up on himself.” said the club president. McAleer said there was absolutely no truth in the story that Fielder Jones had been offered the management of ths club. SEC. FARRELL ISSUES NEW RULING ON OPTIONAL MEN AUBURN, N. Y., July 22—Chair man Farrell, of the National Board of Arbitration governing minor base ball to-dav gave out the following orders relative to the sale and trad ing of players among major and minor leagues: "All optional agreements must be exercised on or before August la. "The sale or the release of players within twenty days of the commence ment of the major league drafting pe riod or within twenty days of the close of the season of the club dis posing of the player is prohibited. "The sale of a player’s release by one national association to another shall be null and void against the se lection by draft of the player by a major league club from the selling club, unless he be in the actual serv ice of the purchasing club for twenty days before the opening of the draft- I ing season for major league clubs. By QEORQB K. PH A IR. RUBAIYAT OF FRANK CHANCE. Some spend their Kale tor Golden Bricks, and Some Buy Goods of Green to show the Folks back Hum, While others purchase Athletes from the Sox And wake to find said Athletes on the Bum. The guileless Yokel bites, and hav ing bit, Discovers he is Stung and throws a Fit. He throws a Dozen Fits and even more, But all they Hand him is the Frozen Mitt. A Book of Baseball lurks beneath my Brow; I know the Why, the Wherefore and the How, , And yet those Gold Brick Merchants make me feel Like some poor Yokel underneath the Bough. Quoth a tale from Boston: “Johnny Evers was In bad humor to-day.” When Johnny Evers Is discovered In good humor it will be time to get out an ex tra. One lesson to be learned from the Stahl case is that solid ivory is not con fined entirely to the playing end of the game. The double play is one of the most thrilling features of baseball, but there is nothing particularly thrilling about the double cross. It Is true that there is no gambling at Mineral Springs. Neither is he a gambler who plies his trade with three shells and an elusive little pea. THE SILHOUETTE.

The crowd would rise And rend the skies Till Walsh came strolling out. No more they rise To rend the skies i When Edward makes his bow. They pass him by With frigid eye And yell for Russell now. The idols rear. The lowbrows cheer. And then the downfall comes. The, gents who play Like stars to-day To-morrow may be bums. SPEAKING OF CHASE. Who stung Frank Chancef “I," said J.

Who saw him stung! “I,” said Frank Farrell. “I lost a barrel— I saw him stung.” Who'll fix it upf “I,” said Big Ban; “If any one can. I’ll fix it up." There was no deception used In the Chase trade. Each was trying to trim the other and naturally one of them lost. Carl Morris announces that he is heavyweight champion of the South, but we have not heard the South boasting about it. Speaking In the vernacular of the game. It might be said that Artie Hof- man hit Into a double cross. THE B. B. ATHLETE. A contract, when his eye grows dim, Is but a worthless scrawl to him, And it is nothing more, Alas, ’tis nothing more! Earl Moore refuses to join the Cardi nals, the inference being that he prefers to remain with a big league team. Reading the newspapers, one Is led to believe that as pugilists those Cards are great little ball players. One Is glad to learn from Ban John son that the gents who control baseball are actuated by a spirit of philanthropy. But it would be hard to convince Artie Hofman or Mordecal Brown of said fact, HOME AGAIN. Beneath a spreading tropic tree The foreign wrestler sits. And frequently a smile of glee Across his visage flits. A proud and happy man is he With money in his mitts. And as he counts his pile of dough He looks across the sea. And sings: "When Autumn breezes blow I must return to thee. America, where boneheads grow— Sweet land of ivory!” By Chick Evans. T O PLAY golf well, one must keep everlastingly at it. This is a rather hard thing to do. for a golfer may play regularly for a cer tain length of time, and then not see a club for a week, or a month. This is particularly true of the busi ness man who finds It hard to get out to play on regular days. The lack of regular practice adds to the diffi culty and uncertainty of the first few shots of one’s game. Golf is at all times the most uncertain of games; perhaps in this uncertainty lies its fascination. Early Shots Are Important. Even the expert can not judge what scores or strokes the day’s play or the next round hold? for him, but the first few shots in a round of golf, especlallv the first tee shots, are api to be indicative of the day’s play. The first drive is usually played to a galierv, either of spectators or wait ing players, and for that reason I have formulated a few rules which I endeavor to use when I play a new course, or hit my firMt balls after an absence from the game. Judgment of distance does not mean so much to me at the start as the desire to hit the ball fairly and squarely in the right manner. If one takes great care in the hitting of the first, few shots, he will find the path around the course much smoother than if he is careless and misses the first few. A player should learn to hi' a ball fairly and squarely, so that the muscles will work in rhythmical assistance. I have frequently gone along teeing and heeling my shots and then at last struck a square blow, and at once felt my muscley respond to the clean impact. Player Should Study Shots. I am a firm believer in the habit of hitting a few' practice shots before starting to play, and my chief rule is: Keep your eye on the hall and sea that your clubhead traverses the Imaginary line to the hole. Judge John Barton Payne once said to me: “Every shot should he made as if one were making his will.” That is not putting it too strong. DODGERS~PURCHASE SCHMUTZ.
