Patent Office, Skinny s an Outlaw from Organized Baseball C HICAGO July 25.—In the semi- \ finals for the championrhip of the Western Oolf Tournament to-day Edward P Allis, of Milwaukee will be matched with Robert A.

Allis Stood Pace Well. At one time in the afternoon. afttr Evans 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 th» strain and kept on the even tenor of his way.

Evans took three to reach the green ahd ran his approach close to the hole. Allis Makes Great Shot. Allis 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 phot, and the boy played a follow bil liard shot, hie ball knocking Evans’ ball a little to the side of the cup and following in. giving him the hole 4- and putting him 2 up. The home hole was won by Allis, 5-6. Allis, after hooking his drive, made a fine second, short of the creek. Allis was 3 up at the interval. A good start in the afternoon meant a lot to Evans, but his chances went tobogganing when Allis won the first 3 holes, and from that point on it was cr.ly a question if the chunky little Milwaukeean could keep himself a; concert pitch, as with a lead of six- holes he could claim membership in the "I should worry” class.

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 (3) that the two-ply grapple probably will end in a dog-fall, so tha; (4) the series will have to be decided to-morrow. Assuming it doesn’t keep on raining. Most double-headers are split. It is hard for a good club to win two games in one afternoon. It is nearly as hard for a decently poor club to lose two.

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 latent noise sounds like Mel ville Brannon, of the spectacular col lege brand of slab-worker, and the idea is that Schwartz has snared him away from J.

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 spejit 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 wjth rose water. Some athletes are condescending enough to talk in friendly terms with 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 oniy 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: He thought he had a temperament, But found that he had blundered; For he was fined a whole week's pay— He could not hit ,300. Ty Cobb, the 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 Rres- 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 i* a deadly sin, A deep and lowly vice.

N EW ORLEANS is now safely es tablished on the boxing map a9 a safe and sane center in which twenty-round contests may be held. At least this is the statement of Dominick J. Tortorich, the Jimmy Uoffroth 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 ag 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. * * * D 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 ie» 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 ed case of trophy fever. One week from next Sunday afternoon, Domi nick will present hip first belt to the boxers. On that day he will have Wildcat Ferns, of Kansas City, and Young Denny, of New Orleans, in the first elimination test for the new wel terweight championship that he pro poses running during the present summer and coming fall. 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 thfit Denny, the home boy. should have been awarded the victory. They are some partisans down that ^ay. To settle the question, Tortorich nailed them at once for a contest over the long route. MOBILE SENDS KELLY BACK.
