4* 8 ATLANTA LLOfmlAN AM) N'LWS. C HICAGO. July 25.—In the »eml- fin ils for the championship of the Western Golf Tournament to-day Edward I*. Allis, of Milwaukee, will he matched with Robert A. Garu- nor and Warren K. Wood will oppose Joseph O. I^educ. 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 bv 1 point, wav 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 and 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 from the northeast was sweeping 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 2ft feet from the cup and holed his put Evans, whose second was to the right of the pin, took one more Allis vllced nis drive for the second hole into a bush and chopped out short, but to offset this mistake Evans, who had driven 26ft yards, pitched his second into the bunker guarding the green, and the result was a half in live Both were on the third green in two. Atlis* being 3ft feet short nni Evans 15 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 2ft feet from the hole. Evans took three to roach 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’ ball was too close to permit of a jump shot, and the boy played a follow bil liard shot, hip ball knocking Evans’ hall 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 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 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.

CONROY SU Lester, Diero, Smith, Cook and Brandon and Others By 0. B. Keeler. B Y way of giving our heroes a lift on every possible turn of fortune’s wheel 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 (3) that the two-ply grapple probably will end in a dog-fall, so that (4) the Furies 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 a 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.

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, ami, incidentally, to the tax upon the exchequer. The latenoise sound:? ilke Mel ville Brannon, of the spectacular col lege brand of slab-worker, and the idea is that Schwarts has snared him away from J.

Dave Bunting, from the eame circuit, also is expected to join the rookies but probably won’t play this season.

So it looks-as If Sir William might be looking forward to 1914 —which, by the way. isn’t so had a thing to do. * • • CONTINUING in the same happy ^ vein, it is noted that President Hirsig, 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 Hirsig i* confi dent he ha*< the inside rail, and be lieves he will keep his pet receiver. While in Detroit, Hirsig will look over the books for new material avail able for his club next year. • « « 1\/T A KING a swift shift to New Or- * leans, we translate an indistinct rumble from the distant North to in dicate that Mr. Brenton, able Pelican fork-hander, is ardently desired by the Toledo Mudhen? in the American Association.

UMPIRE SUES FEDERAL LEAGUE CLUB FOR $35,000 ST. LOUIS. July 25.—Umpire Jack McNulty to-day brought suit against the Federal League baseball club of St. Louis and Manager Jack O’Con nor for $35,000 damages because of an alleged attack O’Connor made on him on the club grounds in June. According to the petition. McNulty was present to officiate us umpire in the* game when O’Connor “wrongfully and unlawfully assaulted him.” McNulty alleges that his injuries are such that he no longer will be able to earn a livelihood as a bjiseball um pire.

PH AI R'-~—■ > 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 wifh 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 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 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. With Archer in th*» hospital and Bres nahan In had. 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 Lrngford to do battle with Charlie Miller. Mr. Miller owes the board of supervisors a vote of thanks. Marty Cutier 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, .4 deep and lowly vice. I seorn the man who tries to win IIy wagering his pile of tin Upon the rolling dice. To gamble is a thing nf shame: 1 look at it askance. Dame Fortune is a fickle dame, And so I play a dead sure game And never take a chance. AMERICANS WILL MEET BRITONS IN NET MATCHES WIMBLEDON, ENGLAND, July 25.— The interest of the tennis world will be focused to-day on the championship matches at Wimbledon, where the Americans will attempt to win the Dwight F. Davis international tennis trophy. England will spare no effort to defend the cup. which is the last re maining token of her former athletic supremacy. The two singles matches will be played between Maurice E. McLoughlin, of Ban Francisco, facing J. C. Parke, whose unexpected victory last year over the noted Australian. Norman E. Brookes, was Instrumental in bringing the cup to England, and R. Norris Williams, of Philadelphia, meeting C. P. Dixon. Parke fell an easy victim to the Cali fornian in the open English champion ships, but a round of tournament play since Is said to have greatly improved his form England pins her hope on his ability to defeat McLoughlin, who Is reported to bo stale. English critics are united in declaring there is less than *‘T5" difference between Wi.dams’ play and that of McLoughlin. A greater crowd is expected than the crush which attended the Wilding-McLoughlin match. JESS WILLARD AND BILL YOUNG STILL HOPING FILLINGEM AND WILDER TWIRL TWO GREAT GAMES CORDELE, July 25.—Seldom, if ever before In the history of organized baseball, has a re^prd been made that would compare with that of Fillin- gem and "Baby” Wilder, pitching for Cordele In a double-header against Waycross Wednesday. .Fillingem went nine innings for a shut-out game with no hits, and Wilder twirled a six- inning game, allowing no hits and no scores, striking out nine men. By this remarkable record. Fillin gem and Wilder have proved them- selvet* the star twirlers of the Em pire State League. Not only has a no-hit. shut-out game been pitched before in the league, but the fact that Cordele took both games with the same brilliant record makes it a precedent that will probably not be equaled, though the league is main tained for years, for which prospects now appear very favorable. 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. 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. LOS ANGELES, July 25.—Jess Wil lard and BUI Young, “white hopes.” were matched to-day for a 20-round boxing bout August 22 at the Vernon arena. Willard hopes to make a few- successful starts here against Leader lights, and then will go after a "Gun boat” Smith match again.

N 'PIW ORLEANS 19 now safely es- tabllshed 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 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 u 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. * • • A LONG w ith Tom McCarey, Tor- ** tortch has been stung by the belt bee. and now has a well-develop MONEY LOANED TO SALARIED MEN AT LAWFUL RATES ON PROMISSORY NOTES Without Endorsement Without Collateral Security Without Heal Estate Security NATIONAL DISCOUNT CO. 1211-12 Fourth National Bank Bldg. ‘THE OLD RELIABLE” New Orleans a 20-Round Center Tortorich Seeks Classy Bouts ed case of trophy fever.

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.
