6 i EVANS' DEFEAT C' MOTOR RACES Friday, July 25 8:15 P. M. THE ATLANT A HEOKCilAN AM) NEWS. (Js Boys liagMteruri L. ft 1’atefti OtLoe. CHICAGO. July 25 —In the semi finals for the championship of the Western Golf Tournament to-day Edward P Allig, of Milwaukee, will be matched with Robert A Gard ner and Warren K. Wood will oppose Joseph C. Leduc. Two surprises were furnished thf gallery at yesterday's games, when "Ned” Allis, the Harvard star, defeat, ed Charles Evans, Jr., the champion, and Warren K. Wood, who missed be ing champion twice, each time by 1 point, was compelled to play 39 holes to defeat Frazer Hale, of Omaha. The pill of defeat so often admin istered by Champion Evans was swallowed by him when Allis defeated him. 4 ar.d 3, In the third round. Allis Stood Pace Well. At one time in the afternoon, after 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 the strain and kept on the even tenor of his way. A stiff wind fr#m tffie northeai* was sweeping the course when the cham pion and his opponent teed off P'vans 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 sliced lus drive for the aecond hole into a bush and chopped out short, but to offset this mistake Evans, who had driven 260 yards, pitched his Recond into the bunker guarding the green, and the result was a half in five Both were on the third green in two. Allis being 30 feet short and Evans 15 feet to the right of the pin. They halved in 4 Allis hooked hiif next drive to the rough, but his w- ond Jumped the bunker guarding the green and ran to 20 feet from the hole. Evans took three to reach the green and 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' hall was too close to permit of a Jump shot, 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 4-5 and putting him 2 up. The home hole was won by A1116, 6-6 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, an^ from that point on It was only a question If the chunky little Milwaukeean could keep himself at concert pitch as with a lead of six holes he could claim membership In the "I should worry'* class. JOHNNY C0UL0N STARTS WORK TO GET IN SHAPE CHICAGO, July 26.—Physicians who have been handling Johnny Cou- lon. bantamweight champion of the world, have released him and John will start on to-morrow to get 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 will 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 for a month or six weeks, and then I’ll be ready to enter the training grind My physi cian has released me and says after a trip into the country 1 will be ready to bo* 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 I wasn't gblng to disappoint a hungry fight crowd by a poor showing,” said John to-day. &EE SHRMP PLYNM FINED MT FIFTEEN THOUSAND DOLLARS A*LD **0«T LET ME PLAY NO MORE- HFViOM'r EU£N LEV ME IN TO THE 6AM6 ‘LESSJ PAY “A/WSSlOS*, . . 60W, AND I ° AltfTGOr NO pewwY too' \ _ _ _ ii Skinny’s an Outlaw from Organized Baseball 00 FOR FANS J 60SH,SH€ CA06HTMS WITH THE GOODS-SHE SEEN THE BALL RlSHt IN MY HAKbS - NDUJ fM IN FOR If TELL EMILY MORTON AND EMILY MORT<*J l ^VHILi TELL SHRMP AND—^ ~ ILL GET EVEN, i’ll keep THE ball Tiu SHRIMP calls off THE fine OR POTS ME PACK TO W5RK'. r- Lr r> 71 I * ! * - 1 * 1 * Cs J&J 9k)NNY HAS TBO MOCK CONSglENCe » JlKiMlNY IT's FUNNY HOWJ THIS BALL. 60T AlLiAY 00UIN HERE • T IPAO MfclJAMARA-o COOtc&D THE 'SOOTH tes* BEATED the giants yesTerdan- Ik) KINDER GLAD OF |T- YOU KN0U), NOT 0ERY GLAO ONLY A LITTLE BIT- WAN IS GETTING MUCH BETTER STANDW6 OF THEM THERE «»•» GianTs ftlNKIES ro 17 .£U ^OtJTHlES M 18 -‘il* PLEAS It. is 0X1 SHAKER'S 600O.T DEPt SHAKERS *>&, Hints mo.

July 25.—Ad Wol- gast, former lightweight champion, js doing his own matchmaking now. He and Jones, who acted as his manager during Wolgast's successful ring days, have separated—not that there is any trouble between them, but Ad feels he needs no manager now that he is no longer the title holder. Ad said to-day: "Until I win the championship back. I will be able to attend to all my matchmaking myself. If at any time I make a good match and need Jones' assistance, he w'ill be the man to at tend to my affairs I also want it un derstood that my old friend and man ager and I are still the best of friends and pals, and If at any time I can make good again, Tom Jones will oe manager.

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 chib to lose two.

For the present season, that Is. ) yhe 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 buz* with ru mors and well-grounded reports of deals by which one William Schw-artz is adding to the power of his pay roll. and. incidentally, to the tax upon the exchequer. The latert noise sounds like Mel ville Brannon, of the spectacular col lege brand of 5»lab-worker, and the idea is that Schwartz has snared him j away from J. Dobbs and that the Ten nessee Industrialist student soon will I inhabit a Nashville uniform. Pitcher Roland, 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 Kime circuit, also is expected to join the rookies, but probably won’t play this seaeon 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. Bo 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 is noted that President Hirslg, of the Nashville club, la un der way in the direction of Detroit for a conference with President Navin. the object being to retaih Frank Gib son. the speedy and hard-hitting lit tle catcher, for next season. It is known that other clubs are sweet on Glbby. and it la possible that he may be destined to travel with Detroit in 1914, but Hirslg is confi dent he has the inside rail, and be lieves he will keep his pet receiver.

LA., July 26 — Pitcher Roy Green, shipped to Wheel ing. W. Va., last spring under an optional agreement, has rejoined the Pelic ans, as has Pitcher Glavenlch. re cently released by Omaha, and who is to figure in a three-cornered trade between the Pelicans, Cleveland and Toledo clubs for Pitcher Brenton shortly.

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 afteyYiece. Chapman and Dunn will catch for the Crackers. We are not grieving over the rain that knocked out yesterday’s game with the Billikens. The off day did us good, ns we needed a rest, and it helped to break up the jump here from Memphis. • • • THE Billikens 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. • * * ILBERT PRICE, got here yester- v- 7 day and looks to be in grand shape 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. Sporting Food -My QBORQC B.

BOSTON, July 25.—The Cubs’ crip ple list had another addition yester day. Pitcher Charley Smith is^on- flned 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. Y.. July 25.—Heavy rain yesterday afternoon stopped the grand circuit races at Fort Erie after the first heats of the 2:09 and 2:11 pace Weather permitting, the two unfinished races and the free-for-all pace will be run off to-day and the grand circuit stars will move along to Grand Rapids. 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 luncherles 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 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 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 i6 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 breaJt 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 GAMBLING. (By A. Magnate.) To gtumole is a deadly sin, A deep and lowly vice. ] scorn the man who tries to unn Rtf wagering his pile of tin Upon the rolling dice. # To gamble is a thing of shame; / look at it askance. Dame Fortune is a fickle dame, And so T play a dead sure game And never' take a chance. New Orleans a 20-Round Center •£•••!• •l*i*|* *1*4^ •{••4* •!• • *V* ^4^* Tortorich Seeks Classy Bouts N" BigG By Ed W. Smith. 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. Tortorich, 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 erf ring history decided in its environs, and threatens now to taae 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 claBS were bat tling for real titles. * • * B 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 Dom’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- ** torlch has been stung by the belt bee. and now has a welDdevelop- ed case of trophy fever. One week from next Sunday afternoon, Domi nick will present his» 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 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 cojntest over the long route. MOBILE SENDS KELLY BACK. MOBILE, ALA., July 25.—Outfielder Jack Kelly, obtained by Mobile from Jersey City, has been sent back to that club on account of an apparent inability to make good with the Gulls. “THE OLD RELIABLE” Pl^NTEN’S^. ••• c u capsules REMEDYF3RMEN AT DRU99I6T8.0RTRIAL &0X BY MAIL60, Fft °B P EWAR I* - N Y - EWA1 IMITATIONS^- ONEY LOANED TO SALARIED MEN AT LAWFUL RATES ON PROMISSORY NOTES Without Endorsement Without Collateral Security Without Real Estate Security NATIONAL DISCOUNT CO. 1211-22 Fourth National Bank Bldg.
