Bears Claw Back at Herd and Win, 104 May. Bailey and Boehler Un able to Stop Denver in Third Game of Series. 'Tis a well-known fact that If you tease an animal long' enough, that animal is going to get a little lilt peeved and snap hack at yon. And that Is exactly whatp happened nut at the Fifteenth and Vinton street ball park yesterday afternoon. Those Omaha Buffaloes ehased and teased the Denver Bears for two days, but yesterday the Bears de cided that it was about time to turn on the Buffaloes, and when they got through snapping back at the Bison the score was 10 to 4 in favor of the Grizzlies. The Bears were real wild. They ran the bases that way and hit the ball like they belonged up In the first division of the standings. They clouted three Buffalo hurlers, May, Bailey and the celebrated Mr. George Boehler, for a total of no Ipss than 16 hits, nine off May, one off Bajley and the remaining half dozen off the deliveries of Boehler. Denver didn't score in the first In ning, although it came near scoring. In the second the Bears tallied a run and again in the third. Nothing hap pened in the fourth, but in the fifth the Grizzlies chalked up another run and only a double play prevented the mfrom scoring at least two more. In the sixth, after one down, May allowed two singles and then made his exit. Bailey entered the fray and after one and two-thirds innings went to the showers. He was so wild tha at new catcher had to he sent in the lineup to hold ’em. He walked the first man to face him, forcing in a run, and then he hit Ray O'Brien, forcing the run across the plate that beat the Buffaloes. Bailey hurled the seventh inning, but gave way to a pinch hitter when Omaha carne to bat. George Boehler took up the hurl ing duties at the start of the eighth. The score was 5 to 4 when Boehler entered the contest, but it was 10 to 4, favor of Denver, when he went to the clubhouse and the fans went home. In the eighth Inning George allowed two bases on balls, sacrifice and five hits, two of them being dou bles. The Bears scored five runs in this one inning. Lefty Brown hurled for the Bea s, and what's more, he hurled a good game. The Buffaloes haven't been very successful against this fellow and yesterday he again gave them a chance at his slants, but the he'-d was powerless to do anything with his curves. He allowed Omaha seven hits. In the second inning Omaha forged ahead of the Bears when Konetchy knocked a home run over the rignt field fence with O’Connor and Jimmy Wilcox parked on the sacks. In the seventh Wetzel doubled and then Wilder, hitting for Hale, singled, coring Wetzel with the fourth and final Buffalo run. The las tgame of the series will be played this afternoon.

He signed them last night for Tex Rickard, rthe contract to hold if he beats Jack Dempsey on Septem her 14 and wins the world's champion ship. the other to be used in ease he succumbs to the champion. The only flaw in the preparations is that Wills has not placed his name on similar sheets. And Paddy Mullins, the negro's manager, stated that he wouldn t sign Harry with Firpo un less the Argentlnan *on the title. "I have Firpo signed for the fight.

Y., Aug. 2"— Benjamin Irish, owner of Papyrus, winner of the 1923 English derby, has agreed to bring his horse to Amer ica this fall for a match race against the best of the American 3 year-olds. Irish will be taking all the worst of tho match, so much the worst of it that American racing men marvel that he has accepted the conditions. He must have tremendous confidence In Papyrus. The horse has raced only over turf or grass courses. The race here will necessarily be run over a dirt track. Furthermore. Papyrus must undergo a sea voyage, said to be more trying on horses than on humans. It is doubtful if an American own er of a great horse would take these chanceb. American owners are In clined to Jealously guard the reputa tion of their horses, once they become recognized champions. Man O'War, said to he the greatest American horse that ever lived, was raced as a 2 year-old, and as a 3-year-old. then was returned to the stud. Man O'War was never called on to nieetythe best horses in the handicap division, per haps the true test of equine greatness. Would latngh st Conditions. The owner of Man O'War would perhaps have laughed at the sugges tion that he take his horse to Eng land to race against an English chain plon under conditions so distinctly un favorable to the American horse as tho conditions of the coming match race must be to Papyrus. It Is hoped Benjamin Irish will bring to America with Papyrus the great Jockey, Steve Donohue, who rides the horse on the English turf. With Donohue on Papyrus aikl Earl Sande on the American champion, the race would bo a duel between the best horses and the best jockey s In Amer ica and Eigiand, a real International battle. Donohue is a really great rider, who may he called of the English school in the matter of style. He is to tho English turf what Sande is to the American turf. Some Americans who have seen him ride think he Is ns good as Sande. This is perhaps not true, Ameri can jock ex's haxe demonstrated their superiority over the riders of Eng land and other countries time and again by going to those countries and winning race after race against the native riders. Fexv English riders and few riders of any other foreign coun try have rxer come to America to sx-ore a success Yankee Kiihlen and Trained. The rider of the best horse by Europe. If not In all the world, tho horse railed Esplnnrd. is an Amen can Jockey, Haynes, who rode Omir Khayyam in the great match race against Uourtrss at l.aurel a fexv years ago. Esplnnrd Is not only ridden hv a i American, hut Is trained by an Amer ican. Eugene Leigh. The horse has run eight times In Fi ner and once In England, It \xon seven starts in France ami xxns left at the post once It won Its race in England Obviously the match planned lor this fall Is not a world chaniph'i>"hi|x affair, unless they iitn git the oxx n .
