RESCUES ARE MADE
AT HOTEL BLAZE
By Private Leased Wire.
Chicago. July 21.—Two women wera
rescued from death and aixty persona
were driven In a panic from the annex
of the St. Elmo hotel, at South Chi
cago, following the outbreak of a fire
that destroyed the hotel early this
morning. C. E. E1IIL the proprlstor,
rescued bis wife.
Some Few Excuses, “Whys” and “Ifs”
Birmingham was the only Matern club
which dul Ita duly Friday. Little Book

Ob! that yonng Dutchman.
And nt that be uys he Isn't a Dutch
man at all.
Tom McCullough says he Is a Scandina
vian. Hut. at that, he ralla him "Guggen-
helmer" for short.
Anyway, be la tho best pitcher In the
longue, so far aa our observatloua have
carried.
It was pretty tough to break that win
nlng streak. Itut It waa a deadly Insult
to tuske It two In a row.
Those dratted Memphis players. They
are the worst Id the business. Every time
they see the Crackers they throw them
down and take a gamo or two away from
them. Burglara!
Bo far thla year, the Hustlers have won
•even games and lost four to the Crack
ers. If the other teams had done llkewtso
and In the some proportion, the Crackers
would be down nssoclatldg with Little
Rock and Nashville.
Ilere^ hoping that Memphis will have
sold Llehhardt and shipped him away be
fore the Hustlers get back here. Per
sonally, "Guggenheim" Is n * flno chap.
Rut we do bate to bare him pitch against
that baseball team of ours.
Between games, "Scandinavian Glen" eat
on the visitors’ bench, bunched over like
nn old tnnn. Ills face was blotched and
ret!, and he looked "all out." When he
got up to pitch the aecond game, though,
waa as chipper as a college pitcher
In the first Inning of a winning game, and
his ginger did not give out until the last
Innlug.
That largo boy, Ed Hurlburt, waa doing
bualness with the ash. In the first game,
he made two bits out of throe times up.
and In the second, one out of the same
number of times at bat.
In the tenth Inning of the first game,
owing to the deadly work Hurlburt had
been doing with bis bat, • Sparks passeo
bttn, though there were already two
on bases. Sparks threw him four of the
widest ones seen at the park this year.
Hurlburt went pretty nearly to first base
for the last one, but could not get near
enough for a shot at It, even at that.
The Intentional, passing of Hurlburt was
a doubtful piece of Judgment: If Spnrks
hnd "got awny with It," the fans would
have balled him aa the tlittfklng pltpher
of the age, uiwl ho would have won the
nickname of "Noodles" right on the spot.
Aa he happened, moot unfortunately, to
hit Llebhnrdt, the next mnn up, with a
pitched ball, and thus forced n man home,
he camo In tor a lot ot criticism. It la
probable that It la had policy to past a
mnn when two are already on bases, but
either horn of Sparks’ dilemma was suffi
ciently sharp to make sitting there uncom
fortable. And Sparks did hla best, which
la all that any man can do, and a lot
more than most of them do.

New York, July 21.—The 2-year-old ebam

Saturday will be contested at Brighton
Beach the Important Juvenile fixture known
aa the Brighton Junior 8takea, of $15,000, at

be one of the best testa afforded so far
this year.
Once again Sydney Paget'a giant cheat
not colt, Water Pearl, and Oran, the swift
running son of Ossary, In the string of the
Ormondale stable, will meet In the Brigh
ton Junior tinder full stake weights. In
the Great Trial of $20,000 Dran ran Water
Pearl Into the ground In a stretch duel, the
latter quitting absolutely. Thla manner
of race running found a complete reversal
when the two colts met In the second half
of the Double Event on the final day at
Sheepahead Bay, where Water Pearl put
It on the*0*sary horse. It Is now one race
apiece, and the coming Brighton Junior
should serve a a the rubber. Handlcnppera
and race players are now prepared to con
cede these two youngsters the best so far
developed this year. Trainer John W.
Rodgers, of the Whitney stable, declares,
for example, that Water Pearl Is a cer
tain winner of the $60,09!) Futurity next
September.
Flrat honors among American 2-year-olda
seem to rest with Water Pearl, Oran. iro f .

FIGHTING DICK HYLAND
TOO MUCH FOR MOWATT
By Private Leased Wire.
Denver, Colo., July 21.—Six rounds, brim
ful of fighting, were enough for Tommy
Mowatt, the fighting conductor of Chicago,
and while he was staggering helpless
around the ring vainly trying to ward off
the wallops of Dick Hyland, of Han Fran*
cisco, his seconds threw up the sponge.
Mowatt took up more fares than he could
register. He was pitted against oue of
the best lads In the business and was
handicapped in age, cleverness and ring
generalship. A more game battle has never
been seen In Denver. Hopelessly defeated
after the third round, the Chicago man
never faltered a moment, but was always
coming In and waa willing to take a couple
In order to land a haymaker, which was
his only chance of claiming the big end
of the purse.
Hyland fought a clever Imttle through-
out. He wanned up gradually and tierer
missed his opportunity. Cleverly avoiding
tho wild swings. Jabs and uppercut* of
his apparently mad antagonist, ho conn-
tered with rare ability aud at nil times
hnd the advantage.
The fight was held In a tent across ths
border ot Denver county and more than
3,Oft) enthusiasts took the long trump across
country to witness tho battle.
In the first round Mowatt opened the
fireworks and from all appenrntice was In
shape to give "Fighting" Dick Hyland a
hard tussle, but before the Initial session
wns ended. Mowatt had begun to weaken.
The altitude counted against him. and h<t
was blowing llko a steam euglue when tho
gong sounded.

Memphis also traded Clark and Haldt

Did you aee the chaae they gave him.
While they went the route that kills?
Did you notice that he took It
Like a good kid awaliowa pills?
Did you aee him running even
With the howling Shreveport pack?
Did jou watch hint reach the limit.
Turn around, and double back?
When they threw aome wild behind him,
In the burry, and the pinch.
Did you bear him raise a holler?
Did you aee him ablrk, or flinch?
No. he pitched a little better.
While we tookwl to see him die;
Then he stole off through the darkness
With a fifteen-inning tie.
Yea, he’s ancient, and he'a crippled.
So he runs a little lame;
But We want him. Bnbb; We want him,
Just the saint*.
For he’a heady aa they moke ’em.
For he a foxy aa hla name.
And he’s proved tieyoml a question
That he’s gatpe.
