'• I THE ATLANTA GEORGIAN AND NEWS. Cleveland Southpaw Owns 480 Acres of Splendid Land in Alberta, Canada. ZA He’s Big Enough to Fight, but- By “Bud” Fisher By Vean Gregg. C LEVELAND, OHIO, Aug. 30,— Most ball players are bothered by the problem of what they will do when they are through with the big leagues. This Is a big prob lem. but 1 solved mine when I went across the great international boun dary line and found the solution in Canada. Yes, Alberta, the province next the Rockies, is the country 1 had been looking for. and 1 expect to get an income there when I am through with baseball greater than the game has ever given me. It was natural for me to think of the Far West as offering the greatest opportunities, for 1 was born in tnc "West myself. Washington is my na tive fc?tate, so I was not going West to seek my fortune when 1 went to Al berta. Rather 1 was coming East, for that province is considerably this side of my old home. I had been in the great Canadian province several times and hied some exciting hunting adventures there, for it is one grand game country. Last winter I determined to move there for good. I at first intended to homestead, for it occurred to me that, as long as J was going to be in the game country anyway and would have to live somewhere, I might as well 8top on a homesteud, and thus get a good lot of land for nothing, save the few improvements that the law requires-- improvements that I would naturally make anyway, if I wanted to do anything with my land. However. I did not carry out my original intention. I bought. Instead, some land belonging to the Canadian Pacific Railroad, which seems to own the pick of the country throughout the Northwest, and got what 1 con sidered a good bargain. Owns a Tract of 480 Acres. At any rate. I have 480 acres of good land in one piece, and. as the country is growing rapidly all through that section. I can count on a substantial increase in value on my investment. From the. first, however, I determined to make the most of my land. Mere waiting for some one else to do the work, as the specula tors do who buy land and allow It to remain idle, waiting for the set tlors to improve the country, does not appeal to me. 1 investigated, and found that hogs seemed to offer about the best return on anyone's money in that far coun try, and so hogs it is. Now when 1 am not busy wondering how I can keep down base hits by the other fellows and keep up my percentage of victories I am dreaming of the fortune to he made in hog raising, and the comparative merits of oats or barley as feed. Yes, good, loyal. Canadian hogs keep well and happy on oats and barley and an occasional beet, for beets grow great in that rich, new soil. R is a wonderful country and, though it is cold in the winter time, the climate is unusually healthful. Naturally, as I am in the heart of a great game country, I hunt a good deal in the winter. Hunting has Al ways been a favorite sport with me ever since I was old enough to hold a gun. 1 have had, perhaps, more op portunity than most, and 1 have al ways improved it. I have shot a gn st number of quail, partridges and the smaller game for food, but most of my experience* have been on the big- game trail. Some Experience* as a Hunter. I remember one of the first expe riences I ever had along this line. It was in the western part of Wiscon sin, end 1 was stopping at a camp in the dense timber, and thought I would take my rifle and go out to *ee what I could find. The rifle I had then was an old one that I picked up in a sec ond-hand store, paying $8 for it. At that I think 1 got rather the worst of the bargain. Still it was the first gun I had ever owned, though I had used borrow'ed urtillerv a good deal, and 1 was very confident of myself. 1 had gone, per haps. half a mile and was feeling fine when 1 heard a slight noise, and look ing up over the top of a rather high bush I saw the head and shoulders of an enormous bear. >le tow ered above me and in the rather uncertain light of the timber looked even larger than he was. The thought had crossed my mind when I started on this trip that I might come across a bear, as they Were rather plentiful in those pa its and I had built all kinds of air castles as to what I should do to him when occasion arose. Hut now that 1 was brought face to face with the situation I experienced an entirely different feeling. Had I had a cannon with me 1 might have stood my ground, but as It was 1 was outnumber**!. My rifle, with which I had felt so proud, looked Bmall and insignificant. Home looked awful good to me, and without wast ing any time in thinking about the situation 1 ducked behind the bush and started for camp. I was in good training in those day's and a fair run ner. but 1 broke all records in my r« - treat. 1 do not think the bear mad« kny effort to follow me. but he would have had to go some if he had wanted to catch me. Lost His First Bear. When I reached camp, which was] very shortly. I told my experience t an old veteran log-roller, who wa there, and he took down his rifle, a much larger one than mine, and wj went back to the place where 1 ha seen the bear. He was no longer there, but had Judged It best to retreat and we did not follow’ his trail very far. He was a silver-tipped bear, and his footprints were the largest the old man had ever seen, so he fe and he had killed many hears. That w'as in the days when I was young and inexperienced, and had poor tools to work with. In hunting hears the hunter needs the most ini ptoved firearms, for bears are always fiangerous. I have shot t< n bears in eluding a grizzly, the most feared an imal on the North American Conti nent, and I have only begun. FEDS BUY INFIELDER NIEHOFF. LOUISVILLE. KY..

Usually the first races of the week have been held on Tuesday night, but plans were switched mb as to give the fans a chance to wee some sport on Labor Day night. The races are to be known as the Labor Day Sweep- stakes and a record-breaking card is expected to see rider* start to night. Local fans have never before had the opportunity of. seeing the famous pursuit race. The riders have their machine* In good shape now and It would not be surprising to see some new record hung up. Four riders are to he put on the track at the same time in the. pur suit race, one rider starting as soon as his opponent has a good start. As there is a great deal of rivalry between the local speed demons it is a safe bet that the winner will have to go at his best to finish in front. Besides' the pursuit race several other Interesting events are to be pulled off. There will be the South ern Championship, the Sweepstakes tnd a special match race between Graves and Richards. Bill Stoddard, local fan. has agreed to give u handsome loving cup to the rider who thrice wins the South ern Championship at the local track. The cup is to be known as the “Stod- dardized Trophy." The cup is one that anyone would feel proud of w'Inning, and the speed demons! can be counted on to ra^e as "they never have before in order to come out a winner.

The new concrete stadium is being rushed and that, too, will be in readiness for the first game. The first unit of the stand is up and will hold about 2,500 people.

To begin with, one pair of rival* and grand tennis cracks will be found In Carleton Smith and Nat Thornton, and locaj fans find difficulty in Imag ining any foreign experts wresting the final honors away from these plavers, both of whom are at the top of their game. In the doubles. Bryan Grant and Ed Carter are paired, and the com bination ia one of a stability too well known to require comment. But Mansfield and Smith, and Orr and Ramspeck—the latter freah from tri umphs at Augusta—will be on hand with a word to say before the matches get to the finals stage. SENATORS ORGANIZE GOLF TEAM IN WASHINGTON WASHINGTON. Sept. 1 —Golf has forced the more weighty problems of statesmanship temporarily out of the minds of Senators. Rumors that lead ing and boastful golfers of the House were crowing of their prowess on th“ Chevy Chase and Columbia Club links led golfing Senators to perfect the Senate Golf Association, which will soon he "ready for all comers." Senator Saulsbury has been the ac tive figure in bringing together tha golfing enthusiasts, who include many of the leading men of both parties. Here is the roster of officers and di rectors of the new association, as giv en out by Senator Saulsbury: Honorary president. Vice President Marshall; honorary secretary. Senator Gallinger; president. Senator O’Gor man; vice president. Senator Cum mins: treasurer, Senator Llppitt; sec retary. Senator Hitchcock; executive committee, Senators Pittman. Bris tow. Townsend, Walsh and Ranedell: manager. Senator Saulsbury; captain of team, Senator Hollis. Former Senator Jonathan E. Bourne, as ex-officio member of the Senate association, xr\y aid in the management of the team. He is an expert player and defeated President Taft on several occasions, But it must be remembered that Lee Allen Brooks, of Birmingham, the present champion, will be present to defend his title; while Brook* and Bartlett, the crack Birmingrham team, will be entered in the coming tournev. The new date September 8. tho Intent ever selected for a tenni* meet here—the fact that it is the big ten nis event of the year in Atlanta, and the class and number of the player* entered, all combine to arouse a most unusual Interest In the approaching tourney, and It 1* probable that some t>f the greatest assemblies ever *een at the famous red clay courts at East Lake will be on Mnd to watch the play in every round, from preliminary to finals. Frank Reynolds has been changed with the important post of chief ref eree. which assures spectator* and player* of well-handled matches. Out-of-town entrants are sending their naznes to C. Y. Smith, 608 Wal ton Building. Atlanta. BOXING TOURNEY BETWEEN NEW YORK AND WISCONSIN MILWAUKEE. Sept. 1.—It U pos sible that a hoklrg tournament be tween the profewilonal bolters of the West and those of the Middle West. >r between New York State and Wis consin. will be arranged next winter. Some of the boxing fans have sug gested such a tourney now that the sport ts legalized in both New York and Wisconsin. The Western section, or rather the Middle West, could put forth some prettv good men In a tourney of any Kind, having Eddie McGktorty, Jimmy flabby and Jack Dillon for middle- weights; Packey McFarland. Charlie White and Pal Brown for ligh'- welghts, with Ray Temple to draw on If necessary; Mattie McOue 1n the featherweight class, Ray Bronson and Billy Walters In the welterweight class, and Young Mahoney and John ny Coulon for the bantams. shoot headlong from the rim, whirled Into space hy the force of circum stance, and Bapplr to land In a spot as soft as second place. The dope will be loose to-night. * * * IF Bill Smith’s help should whirl Jn * and wallop the Pelicans twice in the 'same spot, while the Gulls were falling down before Sommers and Covetestkie in Chattanooga— Well, the Gulls would Just disem bark In Atlanta to-morrow three full games to the good. And that little series of Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday would be totally obscured by flying fur and other traditional symptoms of mortal combat. At that, it would be up to the Crackers to take the series straight to wheel out in front—and then there would remain the Pepper Kids, and nrobably the Big Pole, to lick In the aet game Saturday * • • O N* the other hand, if the Gulls should take as many as one game from the Pepper Kids to-day. while the Crackers yielded as many as one game, to the Pele, the stuff simply would be off. In that unhappy instance, the Gulls would roll into our town five up and four and one-half to go—counting our engagement* with the Lookouts Sat urday An J if—the typewriter stutters at the idea—if we should lose all two games to-day, and the Gulls should win all two games In Chattanooga— Ah, well—the last wad rltea prob ably would be well attended, for (as we have mentioned from time to time) Second Place is not so bad for the Crackers, bearing jn mind the years of 1911 and 1912. * * • O F course, there is some revival of the Scandalous Story of the Ele. vated Mound in Gullville, sprung last spring by Messrs. Cholly Frank, John ny Dobbs and others. Mr. Frank, in fact, prRented several games his club played on the Gullville lot—most of which the Pels lost, by the way. If CholJy’s club had won three out of four instead of losing that quota, the chances are he would never have chirped about that too-high pitching slab. Anyway, the league official?, hav ing tabled the protests thus far, are not very likely to ru*h to the front and bid the startled Gulls, "Stand back. Sirrah! You are too far ahead!” Somehow, we can't see the Hon. Kavanaugh rushing madly to the rescue. • • • I T would have been a highly agree able denouement had the Crackers taken two games Saturday and pulled the Gulls’ lead down to four games— then the fur-flying prospect© would have been very bright and fuzzy. But what i* It the poet sings? ‘‘Of all sad words by tongue or pen, The saddest are the©e: ‘We couldn’t make it!’ ’’ * • • A PLEASANT feature of the late double bill was an interpola tion in the shape of a handsome ebony walking stick, heavily topped with gold, which wa* presented between game* Saturday to Dr. J. W. Mitchell, club physician, by the players of the Atlanta club. Doctor Mitchell is a mighty popular “doc” among the ball players. He ha? pulled fingers into Joint and ban daged sprains and spike wound* and all that sort of thing—and best of all. Dr. Mitchell ha* always been a good friend and sympathetic adviser of ‘‘the boys.” So the boys are just getting back at the “Doc." And you know that sort of thing makes a fellow feel awfully sore—what? gloomy, despite the fact that only six of the varsity will return and an swer the call of the gridiron. Among these are Captain Homer Cook, the star halfback of last year’* team; Loeb, the plucky center; Means, a lineman; Fielder and McDonald, half backs. and Tbomasson, who played end. With these men a* a nucleus, Coach Heisman ha* a number of last year's scrub* who will make a strong bid for first string honors. Those that showed up best as scrubs last year and look good for this year are Rainey. Trawick, Lang, Moore, Lucas, Beard. Goree, Reif- snider Crutcher, the Montague broth er*. Edgar and Tyler, and the Gard ner boy©. These men played last year under the watchful eye of Assistant Coach Alexander and developed great ability and, with last year’s experi ence, should do well. A h)st of new material is expected, but at this early date not much is known about their prospects. Several prep school stars have signified their Intentions of entering the college, but until school convenes for the win ter session not much will be learned. It is expected that Coach Heirman will lay especial attention and stress on kicking ability this year. Mc Donald, of lafft year’s varsity, showed up wonderfully during the season, and this year should win great hon ors with his boot. He Is young, will ing to learn and has great ability, his trusty toe gaining lots of ground for the Jackets last fall. Tech has not had a good kicker rince the days of “Lob" Brown back in 1907, and with the aid of a regular toe artist, coupled with the fighting spirit of the Jackets, a winning team should be turned out. The varsity men of last year who BASEBALL SUMMARY SOUTHERN LEAGUE- Qanm Monday. New Orleans at Atlanta, morning aud afternoon Morning game at 18:46 Af ternoon game at 3:30 o'clock.

Middle Division Sadly Run Down +•+ +•+ -r»+ Billy Papke Only Old-Timer Left By W. W. Naughton. I N deploring the lack of high-class heavyweights at the present time, the fact that th* middleweight di vision is even worse run down than the class above seems to have been overlooked. Jimmy Clabby, Eddie McGoorty, Jack Dillon, Frank Klaus, Billy Papke and Mike Gibbons are recognized as the best of the lot. Pic ture, if you can, what Stanley Ketchel in his prime would have performed had the six of them been shoved into the ring for him to dispose of, one after the other. Or, sadder still* imagine it you can any of the six before Bob Fitzsimmons when the freckled one was In his prime. Papke was once a great fighter; but it is not what you used to be. but what you are to-day in pugilism. Billy is stringing along on the strength of his past reputation, and at that is about as good as any of them, slowed up even as he is. In his prime he could have beaten the bunch in less time than it takes to tell It. He is the only one of the six possessed of a real knockout wallop, or rather did possess one when he was in his prime. • • • D ILLON and Klaus are roughhouse fighters, whose ring actions more resemble barroom squabling than scientific boxing. They are tough, game to the core and hit fairly well, but are almost as devoid of science as it is possible for men to be who have engaged in boxing a* a proies- sion for years. Neither is hard to hit. Before either Ketchel or Fitzsimmons they would have been punching bags. Klaus once boxed Ketchel, but that w’as after the great Grand Rapids fighter grew careless, began to de cline and did no more training than to reduce weight by a hair cut and shave. * * * /^LABBT and McGoorty are clever. fast and tricky, but neither hits hard enough to have even so much as slacked the pace of such fighters as 1 Ketchel or Fitzsimmons Gibbon* is fa*t and clever, but only looks rood gainst third and fourth raters. 5«em- \ >(«.m WhMu>R arul Drujr treated H»im or at Lpittiiiwi.

There are a number of reasons to believe that he is not as game as a man should be if he ex pects to adopt boxing as a profes sion. The writer is of the opinion that Joe Gans and Jack Blackburn, lightweights, when in their prime- could have disposed of the best men in the middleweight division to-day, and that Welterweight Joe Walcott could have beaten them easily, even despite fifteen or twenty pounds dif ference in weight. Great Johnson Suffering From Lame Shoulder B oston, mass,, sopt. 1.—wai ter Johnson, the great pitcher of the Washington Americans, 1» suffering with a lame arm. It de veloped to-day that Johnson has been working with his *houlder, whirh pains him whenever he delivers the hall. He contracted it after that fif teen-inning game, which ended in a tie, with the St. Louts Browns sev eral weeks ago, and since then has been winning his games without ever having to extend himself. Johnson to-day was asked about the story that his arm was sore and he replied: * * # VT'ES, It is. It has been paining 1 me ever since I worked in tb it fifteen-inning tie game against SL Loui*. At times it pains so badly that I w’ant to quit, but am stalling along because I do not w’ant the opposing payers to know that I am not right.

McTaggart Is Jockey King In Year’s Time N EW YORK, Sept. 1.—From mes senger boy to the top rung of the racing world in less than a year is the record of “Little John ny” McTaggart, who is without a doubt the very best American jockey sporting the silks in this country. “The Kid,” as little Johnnie is called at Saratoga, is a brother of Jockey Toramv McTaggart. This time last year he was chasing his leg* off running messages for a New York telegraph company. Johnnie got, his first real chance at the recent Belmont Park meeting, where he piloted to victory August Belmont'* horse Mission. At Sara toga “The Kid” had four mounts and won with thre*. ♦ * * T N the history of racing it has never been recorded where a boy made such a rapid and brilliant rise as this little Jockey, whose actual measure ments would scarcely overtax a yard stick. A decade or more ago the racing slogans were, “Follow Sloan,” or “Fol low Miller.” To-day the cry is. “Back the Kid'—meaning Johnnie McTag gart, of course. Jeff Livingston. R. F. Carman, August Belmont and R, T. Wilson, Jr., are all after his serv ices. • * * C AM HILDRETH, the foremost in America, who has just returned from abroad to take charge of the Belmont stahl®. declared after seeing McTaggart ride that the youngrier was the best rider of his inches the turf world has ever known. The IK tie jockey is only 17 years of age and can ride at less than 96 pounds. He is under contract to Hugh Penny, a former star rider of the West. Jeff Livingston offered Penny $10,000 for the "Kid’s” con tract. He was told he couldn’t have the boy for twice that amount. Palzer and Moran Ready for Big Bout NEW YORK, Sept. 1.— All is In read iness for the ten-round bout to be staged here Wednesday night between A1 Talzer, who comes from Iowa, and Frank Moran, of Cleveland, Ohio. Both men are in prime condition and each is confident of victory. The wln- fier will most likely get a chance to swap wallops with Gunboat Smith, who is hailed as the best man in The white heavyweight division.
