Aug. 7.—A desperate battle between Government troops and a force of rebels and mu tineers is being fought near Canton. Dispatches report terrible slaughter. D ick Manchester.the Ameri cus catcher, has hit his true stride and is now the favorite to tfln the Hearst Sunday American | and Atlanta Georgian’s contest to de cide the most popular player In the Empire State League. After running a neck and neck race with Otto Jordan, the Valdosta man ager. for nearly two weeks, Manches ter's admirers got busy yesterday and as a result Dick is leading Otto, his nearest rival, by just 720 votes, latest figures give Manchester 4,828 votes, while Jordan has 4,108 cou pons to his credit. Race Over August 13. The race is nearing an end. On Wednesday noon. August 13. the final votes will be totaled and the player having the most votes at that time will receive a handsome loving cup j to be donated by this paper. Votes j sent in after that time will bo worthless. This means that Manchester’s j rivals have just six days In which to j overhaul the fast flying Americus j backstop. The spurt that the Base ball Popularity Editor was expectin? one of the players to take was grasped by Manchester. Now it is up to the followers of the contestants to get busy and catch Dick or bow to him as the most popular player in | the Empire State League. Others Can Win Out. "Goat” Holliday, "Pat” Murphy and H. Champlin are the next players in j the contest. They can still win out. but It will take a great deal of hust- ng to bring them up to an even basis with the two leaders. Coupon clippers had better sharpen their shears for the final round. Re member Manchester can be over taken. His admirers will fight doubly hard from now on, but one can not tell what will happen.
