' i 8 THE ATLANTA f!E<TRCTAN AND NEWS. BINS' DEFEAT IS IN EfJ Skinny’s an Outlaw from Organized Baseball C HTCAOO. July 2S — In the aeml- flnaU for the championship of the Western Golf Tournament to-day Edward P. Allis, of Milwaukee, will be matched with Robert A Gard ner and Warren K. Wood will oppose Joseph C. Lcduc. Two surprises were furnished th r gallery at yesterday's games, when “Ned" Allis, the Harvard star, defeat ed Charloe Evans, Jr., the champion, and Warren K. Wood, who missed be- champion twice, each time by 1 point, whs compelled to play 39 holes to defeat Fraser Hale, of Omaha The pill of defeat so often admin istered bv Champion Evans was swallowed by him when Allis defeated htm, 4 and 3, in the third round. Allis Stood Pace Well. At one time 1n the afternoon, after Brans had won the sixth and seventh holes, it looked as if the champion might at least produce a tight finish, but Allis never cracked under the strain and kept on the even tenor of his war. A stiff wind from the northeast was •weeping the course when the cham pion and his opponent teed off. Evans had the honor and hooked his drive close to a trap. Allis pitched his sec ond 20 feet from the cup and holed his put Evans, whose second was to the right of the pin, took one more. Allis tficed hifi drive for the second hole Into a bush and chopped out short, but to offset this mistake Evans, who had driven 2fi0 yards, pitched his second into the bunker guarding the gTeen, and the result was a half in five. Both were on the third green in two, Allis being 30 feet short and Evans 1& feet to the right of the pin. They halved in 4. Allis hooked his next drive to the rough, but his sec ond Jumped the bunker guarding the green and ran to 20 feet from the hole. Evans took three to reach the green and ran h1s approach close to (he hole. Allis Makes Great Shot. Ants stymied himself on his third and then made one of the most re markable shots of the match. Evans* ball was too close to permit of a Jump shot, and the boy played a follow bil liard shot, his ball knocking Evans’ ball a little to the side of the cap and following in. gtving him the hole 4-5 and putting him 2 up. The home bote was won by ATTIs. B-A. Allis, after hooking his drive, tpade a finensoeond, short of the creek AUU wits 3 up at the Interval A good start In the afternoon meant a lot to Evans, but his chancus went tobogganing when iUtls won the first 3 hole**, and from fbxt point on it was only a question If the chunky little Milwaukeean could keep himself al ooncert pitch, «« with a lead of six holes he could clajrn membership in the should worry" class. JOHNNY C0UL0N STARTS WORK TO GET IN SHAPE CHICAGO, July 25.—Physicians who have been handling Johnny Cou- km. bantamweight champion ot the world, have released him and John Win start on to-morrow to Kot him self back Into shape for some title contests. He Is packing his trunks to-day and on to-morrow will start for Georgian Bay. where he plans to rough it for a month or six weeks. Then he wrlll return, go westward and close his match with Kid Williams. The Logan Square battler believes he will be ready to don the gloves about the middle of September. "I'm going to camp out and live as close to nature as 1 can. Rough It will be my style tor a month or six weeks, and then rll be ready to enter the training grind. My physi cian has released me and says after a trip Into the country I will be ready to box again. I am eager to get back In to the game, principally to show that I am not all in. I have been censured for my delay in the Williams fight, but I knew I wasn't right, and 1 wasn't going to disappoint a hungry fight crowd by a pqor showing," said John to-day. 00fOR FANS C00K6D i)Ar the ‘soormeU bsated THE 6lANT$ YESTfeRDAH- IV) kINDER.

B Y way of giving our heroer a lift on every possible turn of fortune's w'heel during the present hectic little road trip, it rained yesterday In Montgomery. Diagnosis of this seemingly simple weather note informs us (.1) that two games will be played this afternoon, unless (2) It rains some more; which means «.8) that the two-ply grapple probably will end in a dog-fall, so that (41 the series will have to be decided to-morrow'. Assuming It doesn't keep on raining Most double-headers arc split. It is hard for a good club to win two games in one afternoon. It Is nearly as hard for u decently poor club to lose two. So it Is rather unlikely that the pres ent series will be as decisive as it looked before the bottom fell out. * • • NAMING NO NAMES. Some of our tuoitI erudite little Sages Daily rebound from this mystery vex'd: Dow is it a ball club that cleverly gauges Attack and defense, and consistently t ages Along in one game, till the praise clutters pages. Turns right around and immodestly stages An Opera flouffe in the Xeirtt *00 L AMPING the station of the Nash ville Volunteers in the Southern League standing doesn’t offer mu ah enlightenment concerning the stal-* wart efforts now making by the man agement to cheer up that club. For the present season, that is. The Vols are more than a dozen games behind the leaders, and the day of miracles is popularly reported to be past. And yet the wires buzz with ru mors and well-grounded reports of deals by which one William Schwartz is adding to the power of his pay roll, and, incidentally, to the tax upon the exchequer. The late** noise sounds like Mel ville Brannon, of the spectacular col lege brand of slab-worker, and the idea is that Schwartz has snared kim away from J. Dobbs and that the Ten nessee Industrialist student soon will inhabit a Nashville uniform. Pitcher Boland, of the recently ex ploded Interstate League, has been turned over to the Nashville club, and is expected to succeed Jack Brackenridge. Dave Bunting, from the same circuit, also is expected to join the rookies, but probably won’t play this sea-eon. Schwartz Is still dickering for “No-Hit Babe” Adams, of Savannah, and Hoffman was added to the roster at a considerable expense a short time ago. So it looks as if Sir William might be looking forward to 1914—which, by the way, isn’t so bad a thing to do • • • /"CONTINUING In the same happy vein, it 1b noted that Pre^dent Hlrsig. of the Nashville club, is un der way In the direction of Detroit for a conference with President Navin, the object being to retain Frank Gib son. the speedy and hard-hitting lit tle catcher, for next season It Is known that other clubs are sweet on Gibby. and it is possible that he may be destined to travel with Detroit in 1914. but Hlrsig i» confi dent he ha* the inside rail, and be lieves he will keep his pet receiver.

George Clarke and Joe Conzel- man are Bill Smith’s pitch ing entries in the bargain-day bill this afternoon, and the gossip is that Elmer Brown, Montgomery’s best bet on the slab, will work the first contest against our boys, with either Sparks or Case in the afterpiece. Chapman and Dunn will catch for the Crackers. We are not grieving over the rain that knocked out yesterday’s game with the Billlken8. The off day did us good, as we needed a rest, and It helped to break up the Jump here from Memphis. • • • T HE BilHkens are full of confidence. and they are going to be hard to lick. They all believe they are going to win the rag, but realize that the rest of the schedule is against them, as they have only one more series at home, after which they hit the long trail for the rest of their games. It is admitted here that the Crackers are the club to be beaten; in fact, every club in the league accepts that as a fact. * * • r'' ILBERT PRICE, got here yeeter- day and looks to be in grand shane after his little rest. Take it all around, the club is in good condition and should make a great finish once it gets back to Ponce DeLeon.

BOSTON, July 25.—The Cubs' crip ple list had another addition yester day. Pitcher Charley Smith is con fined to his bed, suffering an attack of heart trouble, thought to be an after- math of his prostration by heat in Cincinnati a few weeks ago. Zim merman is in Chicago for treatment of his injured foot. RAIN STOPS RACES. BUFFALO. N.

Sporting Food j 1—~—»y QIORai a. PHAIN > TEMPERAMENT. There are two classes of ball players— those who have temperament and those who have brains. Temperament is an enlargement of the cranium common among athletes who hit in the .300 class. Or, one might say that temperament is temper with a college education. A temperamental athlete is as hard to handle as a greased eel. What though he has spent the winter prowling about free luncheries seeking what he may de vour? In summer he kicks when the humming birds’ ears are underdone or the finger-bowls are not filled with rose water. Some athletes are condescending enough to talk in friendly terms *vith the owner of the club, but such cases are rare. As a rule he considers it a favor to allow the manager to talk to him, and he plays ball only because the public cries for it. For if he were to quit, the pastime would be left flat on its back. * In order to attain a temperament, an athlete must first attain a .300 batting average. Otherwise nls temperament Is merely a bum disposition, and the man ager stings him for a fine and kicks him on the shin. As an Immortal poet once wrote: H© thought he had a temperament, But fo^nd that he had blundered; For he was fined a whole week’s pay— He could not hit .300. Ty Cobb, th© temperamentalest athlete in captivity, wants to break away from Detroit. Some say this is due to temper ament. while others hold that it Is due to horse sense. With Archer in the hospital and Bres- nahan in bad. we wonder what the Cubs would do if some vile wretch were to step on Tom Needham’s bunions. The board of supervisors In San Fran cisco refuses to allow Sam Langford to do battle with Charlie Miller. Mr. Miller owes the board of supervisors a vote of thanks. Marty Cutler showed In his alleged battle with Carl Morris that as a pugilist he is a good wrestler. Some day Tyrus Cobb will create a sensation by announcing that he Is sat isfied with the way the universe is being run. GAMBLING. (By A. Magnate.! To gamble is a deadly sin, A deep and lowly vice. 1 scorn the man who tries to win By wagering his pile of tin Upon the rolling dice. To gamble is a thing of shame; I look at it askance. Dame Fortune is a fickle dame. And so I play a dead sure game And never take a chance. Tortorlch Seeks Classy Bouts BigG Cures in 1 to 5 days unnatural discharges.

N EW ORLEANS Is now safely es- tablished on the boxing map as a safe and sane center in which twenty-round contests may be held. At least this is the statement of Dominick J. Tortorlch, the Jimmy Coffroth of the South, who has firm ly put the game back on a standing akin to the conditions that prevailed there In the good old long ago. New Orleans, be it remembered, had some of the most famous battles of ring history decided in its environs, and threatens now to take Just as promi nent a place as it got when John L. Sullivan and Jim Corbett, Bob Fitz simmons and Jack Dempsey, Jack McAuliffe and Billy Myer, Fitzsim mons and Jim Hall and Dan Creedon and others of that class were bat tling for real titles. * * * T)Y sheer force of character and ^ through demonstration that the boxing game can be kept free from scandal, and that it does not verge into the old class of “prize fighting,” Tortorich has carried matters along until he has won over almost every executive in Louisiana to his way of thinking, and it is not believed that there will be any further oppo sition to Dorn’s plan of holding twenty-round contests from now until next Spring. And Dom believes he will be able to show all of the box ers that It will be strictly to their interests to pay some attention to the nice offers that he Is going to make to them. * * • ALONG with Tom McCarey, Tor- torich has been stung by the belt bee. and now has a well-develop- “THE OLD RELIABLE” R E M E DYFdR AT DRUGGI8T8.OR TRIAL BOX BY MAILB0* FROM PLANT EN 93 HENRY ST.

These boys battled ten rounds there July 4, and Ferns was awarded a verdict that started a near-riot among the spec tators, many believing that Denny, the home boy. should have been awarded the victory- They are some partisans down that way. To settle the question, Tortorich nailed them at once for a contest over the long route. MOBILE SENDS KELLY BACK.
