IMPOSSIBLE TO PICK WINNERS AS YET
Any One of Four Ten in In the I.ritKiie
In I'lmltliin to llenr Anny
the Coveted
Trophy,
Such nn Intenoely Interesting race for a
base bait pennant was novcr enacted as that
riow n progress In our own Western league.
It Is enough to mako the blood o( the en
thualaatlc fan tingle with excitement and
cause him to divorce himself from tho arms
of Morpheus at an carrier hour than usual
In order to nab tho morning paper and Bed
the results of tho previous day's games, Too
attenuated margins between the topnotchers
and the tatl-cnders, In comparison with
other pennant races, Is extraordinary. In
two weeks' time It would be possible for
tho percentago column to be entirely re
versed. 1'ucblo, with a run if luck by no
means unprecedented In the rnnals of baso
balk might displace tho leaders In that
length of time.
The Oraahas put a kink In tho unparal
leled run of luck that has been meted out
to them for tho last three weeks by winning
r gamo from Dcs Moines Friday afternoon
and It Is not unreasonable to believe that
the spell has been broken and a scries of
vlctorlca may be looked for.
Denver patriotism nlono warrants the as
sumption that the present top-notchers huvo
tho pennant at their mercy and thcro Is no
foundation In fact for such a concltmlon. It
Is truo 'that (leorgo Tebcau has been fortu
nate In 'collecting 'together a, splendid agijre
agtlon of players, but they "nro by no moans
the undisputed peers of tho 'other teams In
tho league. Tebcau, flushed with tho Inspi
ration of n few victories, pronounced his
team Invincible whllo In Omaha, but the fall
that Sioux City has taken out of It nan prob
ably caused him to oltor hlo opinion.
Thiro arc four teams In tho league, any
nnii of which f better than a four to ono
bet on winning tho pennant. They aro
' Denver, Sioux City, St. Joseph nnd Des
Molncti and Omaha Is In tho eamo class, pro
vided subsequent playing establishes be
yond peradventuro that tho long string of
defeats has been attrlbutablo entirely to un
exampled 111 luck. Pueblo la In reality tho
only weak team In ho league. Hilly Hulcn
has need to Inject a deal of team work Into
his aggregation unless ho expects to end
tho Heason where ho Is now In tho last
hole.
Slnco tho Colts havo returned homo It
has been proved that nil tho talk about
the club being disorganized and torn
asunder by reason of Internal difficulties
was unfounded. They havo simply been up
against an overgrown bunch of hard luck
and now that a start In tho other dlrectlou
has been made It Is not unlikely that they
will keep right on with a -winning etreak
such as thoy had early in tho Beason.
Tho past week hnn not been tinted with
rosy hues for local random, for tho Colls
have dropped to fourth place, botli Dob
Moines nnd St. Joseph rorging ahead of
thoni.' For tho first time, too, they have
dripped below .COO In tho percentage
column. But then thcro aro nearly fifty
games to be played yet boforo tho season

lean margin between Chicago In first placo
and Huffalo nt the tall end than between
Denver ana memo in, me western. An
exceptional circumstance has developed
within tho past week. Although Chicago
lias been unable to play owing to rain the
White Stockings mill nre anchored In first
place, even though only having a lead of
thirty points. Buffalo, too, has won twelve
out of fourteen games and yet has not been
able to got out of tho last hole. This has
been caused by reason of these victories
being won from the leaders and has had
tho result of bunching the teams Into ex
ceedingly closo quarters. In tho National
leaguo the race between Pittsburg, Chicago,
Philadelphia nnd Cincinnati has been de
cidedly Interesting. At ono time Pittsburg
was In second place, with Chicago, Phil
adelphia and. Clnclnnntl all tied for third,
Pittsburg succeeded In breaking away .and
Is now hugging Brooklyn for first cabin
position.
Manager Hill rtourko hied himself east
tho first of the week In search of players
and the results of his efforts aro now be
ginning to show- up. Alfle Kcarns, a capa
bio pitcher who has been with Uuftnlo and
"Dusty" Coons, who formerly presided on
the slab for Peoria, have put in an appear
ance and Kcarns made, a very creditable
showing In bis first game. George Yager, a
catcher of recognized ability both behind
tho wlndpad and as hitter, has arrived
from Milwaukee, and will relieve Dill Wtl
von In part of the remaining games of tho
season. Ualrd and Thompson, two cracker
Juck fielders from tho cast, have also been
signed and1 Papa 1)111 has & tow surprise!
In Btoro for the local fans. Uoth ho and
President Keith propoto to mako good their
promises to land the pennant or die In the
last ditch fighting for it.
Only two games aro scheduled to be
played on the' homo grounds this weok, the
completion of., tho series with Pueblo to
morrow afternoon mnrklngU'be end of the
exhibitions on, thohome groupda for a lew
days. Tuesday, however, will bo nn off day
and one of tho postponed games 'with Den
ver, Don Moines or St. Joe may bo booked.
Tho Colts will begin a four days' engage
ment at Des Molncs Wednesday and a like
series at Sioux City next Sunday.
The news of Manager McKlbbcn's suspen
sion of Davis, tho capable firot baseman of
tho Mlssourlans, because of an indifference
in Thursday's gamo with Pueblo, to which
tho Saints' defeat was attributed, will bo
received with disappointment by tho many
fans who admlro tho genial good nature and
original coaching of the first baseman. It
Ih likely that McKlbben'H order will be
rescinded after it has been operative long
enough to administer a rebuke to the
"prince of Jolliers" of the Western league.
Davis has mado a wonderful record on' the
Initial bag for the Saints. He played In
forty-two straight games without making
an error. Such a phenomenal record stands
unprecedented and It Is ono of which Davis
may well feel proud. Laot season Harry
O'Hagan of Rochester held tho record, with
twenty-seven games to his credit without
an error.
Denver's shut-out by Sioux City Thursday
has rankled In tho breast of Manager Te
bcau. His Iro has broken out llko a small
pox .affection, asserting Itself In tho dis
charge of Kane, tho Denver pitcher who as
sisted In the umpiring, and In tho suspen
sion of Al Mauck, one of tho best umpires
tho leaguo has had. Tcbcau't) choleric pro
test filed with President Hlckcy brought
about Mduck'n suspension. Mauck has many
friends among players and attendants who
believe him to bo absolutely fair and impar
tial In his Umpiring and these hope that the
action resulting In his suspension may be
rescinded. Mauck failed to officiate at
Thursday's game In Sioux City becaueo of
sickness, according to report, and it this be
true, Tcbcnu's protest against his longer
servlco as umplro Is certainly unfounded.
GOLFERS DISCUSS TOURNEY
Eiithiialimm or the I'lnyer Wrought
IJ to IllKhcst I'ltch Durlnir
the l'nt Week.
The golf enthusiasts of tho city have de
voted themselves during tho week to tho
discussion of tho first Inter-club tourney,
scheduled for yesterday afternoon nt the
Country club links between flvo players
from that organization and tlvo from tho
Kountze Placo club. The odds in tho gos
sip tho enthusiasm of golf players rarely
reaches to tho betting stage were largely
on the Country club contingent, ns the play
ers In Its line-up were mostly In excellent
form, with a good fund of experience to
steady thorn In trying places. The fact that
tho match was conducted on tho Country
club links also gavo an Important handicap
to that faction, inasmuch ns several of the
Kountze Place men had nover been tho
rounds moro thnn once or twice. This ad
vantage Is considerable In the mind of any
golf player who appreciates that a fow trips
nround tho courso teaches dearly bought
letflons of Just how hnrd to strike and what
sort of dangers Impend at every turn.
Of the flvo who comprised tho Kountze.
Place team Captain Harry I.awrle Is easily
tho strongest player. Mr. Lawrlo learned
the gamo during a trip to Scotland several
years ago and secured all the most ap
proved pointers at first hand from those
who had received them from their grand-
sires. Ills upeclalty Is a tremendous drive
which would compensate for many weak
nesses of approach. U should not be Im
plied, howover, that Mr. Itwrlo has trouble
getting his ball into the holes, as his eye
ts us accurate ns bis swing Is powerful.
Another of tho Kountze Place team upon
whom rcllnnco is placed Is E, V. Lewis,
nlo ono of the earliest members of the
Country club. Mr.- Lewis preferred In this
Instance to cast his lot with the Kountze
Placo team, and his famlllnrlty with the
IJeneon links proved particularly valuable
At tho handicap tourney ithsre several weeks
ago ho tied for Becond place with a score of
111 for tho eighteen holes. The third player
on the Kountze Place sldo Is II. Oldfleld, a
veteran, who learned tho art In England
Ho Is one of the new acquisition to the
North Omaha club, but bus made an excel
lent record nnd plays an even, conscientious
gnme. The Kountze Place aide Is completed
by J. H. Ilutler and It, II. Stevenson, both
of whom promise to show up well In contest
play. Mr. Ilutler mado ft trlhif.'trlp around
tho links ou Friday and mado a score, of
55 without special effort.
Probably the strongest playr on the
Country club sldo Is W, J. Foyo, who Is one
of tho most conscientious players In tho or
gnnlzatlon. Foye is seen almost dally on
the links and has even been accused of ap
pearlug twice or three times to test bis
form In the course of the twenty-four
hours. Tho youngest player on tho team Is
Tom Davis, who has been playing during
the year white absent at school, Davis Is
credited with covering the olghteen holes
In 106, .and If bo can maintain such a pace
In contest work will come In for a large
share of glory. Q. W. Wattles, member of
tho board of directors, represented that
august body on the team, and from bis
scores In practlco work promised to bear
ins auure oi mo loan, i no oiucr two mem
bers wore Ed Morsmnn nnd T. D. Kimball,
who tied for first place In the handicap tour
ncy several weeks ago.
Tho players wero visibly affected by the
different principle which applies In contest
play, the score bojng taken from each hole
separately insieau ot nom me entire course.
This arrangement makes It possible for a
steady player to win from a more erratic
but brilliant one, who may be able to rally
at tho finish and come In with a low mark
for the entire course.
In Spaldlng'ff Official Coif Guide for 1900,
recently Issued under the auspices ot
Charles S. Fox, there arc many passages ot
sago ndvlce arid wlio coumel, together with
a mass of statistics of Interest to those who
love the sport. On tho subject ot clubs tho
guldo makes the following remarks! "Per-1
haps thero Is no game where prejudlco In
fluences the player's mind as In this one
and a man will swear by the maker of a
club or ball becnure he pulls oft a match
by being In good form, ascribing his suc
cess, however, to tho merit of tho tools he
Is handling.
"The shafts of golf clubs are made ot
lancewood, grcenheart, ash nnd, best of all,
hickory; the heads arc of all kinds ot wood,
though beech, hickory, compressed dogwood
nnd persimmon nre tho bent. Dogwood, ot
which ulqc-tentbs of tho clubs made In
America aro made, possesses all the driving
power of beech, with twice Its durability,
and Is being very largely exported to Scot
land, whero the clubmaker recognize Its
superiority over beech.
"There are a thousand and ono patents
and Inventions, but they nre, as a rule, ot
little value. A few of the newer types havo
merit, puch as the gooseneck putter, which
enabto tho player to see the blade of the
putter when addressing tho ground and the
ball soems to run truer and closer to the
ground. The centraject mashlc, If tho ver
dict Of half tho golfing fraternity Is any
criterion, Is superior to any other. Tho
trouble with brassies and drivers In tho
past has been that It has been almost Im
possible to secure any wood which would
stand the sevcro strain put upon It by strik
ing a hnrd ball and the almost universal
fault of beginners of hitting tho ball on the
heel and toe of tho club. This almost In
variably result's in breakagos."
FITZSIMM0NS RE-ENTERS RING
KnitRSron Already lln limit Scheil
, uleil with flu Itnhlln nntl
Tom Shnrkry,
After a virtual retirement from tho ring
of over, a year Bob Fltzslmmons, erstwhile
champion of heavyweight pugdo-., promises
to bo prominently In the eye of fight fol
lowers between now nnd Septembor 1. He
has fights scheduled In that tlmo with both
Ruhlln and Sharkey. Tho meeting ot Fltz
and Gun Is tho aftermath of Huhlln's pro
nounced victory over Sharkey and Is the
most Interesting bout thnt could be ar
ranged, with tho exception of a mooting
between Champion Jeffries and the Akron
giant.
Even before Ruhlln was matched to meet
Sharkey he had a bout slated with Fltz,
'but It was called oft because of an Injury to
tho big speckled Cornlshman'e hand. Somo
devotees ot tho prize ring who delight In
speculation oven go no far as to assert that
Ruhlln would nover be enjoying the heydey
of prosperity and prominence that Is now
his lot had Fttz got a whack at him before
Sharkey bowed boforo him, but before tho
rank and file will take any stock In such a
statement "Lanky Bob" will have to prove
tho glowing assertions of his friends by
wresting from Ruhlln the honors ho so well
deserves becauso of Sharkey's downfall.
Anont tho fight Oeorgo Slier says:
"In Fltzslmmons Ruhlln will find n dif
ferent stylo of a lighter than he did In
Sharkey. Bob Is not a rusher nor wild
swinger. Furthermore, ho Is scientific,
tricky, nnd can hit a few lines. His ca
pacity for punishment, however, is not as
largo as Sharkey's, but whatever ho lacks
In that he makes up In other matters es
sential to tho game. Gus found Sharkey
easily with straight left leads, but that was
becauso tho latter bumped Into them. "Kits"
will not do that. He's slippery with his
head nnd Gus will seo many of his blows
slldo over Bob's shoulders.
"Tho formor has undoubtedly learned a
trick or two about the scientific part of the
game, but he'll need all be has learned
when ho fights Fltzslmmons. It will be
time enough to delvo deeply Into the "Fltz"
Sharkcy battlo after tho former's fight with
Ruhlln."
Frank Erno's handicap In rcducexl weight
wns more than tho lightweight champion
had bargained for and Terrible Terry Mc
Govorn prov6d an easy victor In their bout
last webk. Tho match was an Interesting
one, the meeting of two champions In differ
ent classes being enough to arouse more
than a passing Interest with tho fighting
public. Boxer wns pitted against fighter
and tho latter carried away the honors,
McGovcrn fought as usual, like a fiend, and
Erno wns unable to withstand the on
slaughts of tho veritable fighting machine.
Erne's defeat docs not lower his standing
in lightweight circles, and any fighter who
believes that becauso McGovern whipped
Erne the latter is an "easy mark" will find
that Erne, fighting nt his accustomed weight,
Is as effective as ever, and the pugilist who
vanquishes him must needs be up In points
of the game.

"When you look carefully Into this alleged
common sense system," remarked a local
whist player, "you will find that there are
very few who make such pretensions who
really live up to their principles. In most
of the so-called conventionless games there
are many things which are matters of pre
vious understanding between the partners
and which amount to conventional plays Just
as much as trump calls or Invitation leads.
They Insist that they have no conventions ot
any kind, but they lead the king to deny
the ace; leadUbo ten from queen, Jack, ton
when the suit is worth playing for as a loug
suit, and begin with the queen when the
rest of tho hand Is weak; do not lead small
cards unless they are willing to bnvo the
partner ruBh to trumps; will not forte un
less strong In trumps, nnd so on to the end
of a long code ot slguals.
"Tho fact Is that when two players got
together and go ovor the why nnd where
fores of a lot of hands on which they have
dropped an Indefinite number ot tricks In
the course ot a few deals, thoy cannot help
admitting to each "other that they had to do
a lot ot guessing and thnt certain misunder
standings were responsible for the greater
part ot the losses. These errors were
probably avoided by players at other tables
who bad somo system to guldo them through
their difficulties.
"About the first thing that the conven
tionless player has brought home to him is
tho disadvantage Under which he labors by
not showing number In trumps, either In
his leads or by his echoes and returns. The
trump signal he may not feel the want of,
except on rare occasions, but he will be
continually In doubt as to the number of
trumps remaining In his partner's hand
nnd will cither have to do some good guess
lug or err on the side of conservative play.
If he guesses right, no harm Is done, but It
he is too conservative he may let a number
U
)
ot tricks net away that would be picked up
by any tyro who had some definite Informa
tion ns to the trump situation."

Lake (Icnein,
The hopes of the Young Men's Christian
association athletes have centered nurlng the
week upon tho showing which It was hoped
W. E. McElroy would mako Saturday at
tho National arsoclatlon games at Lnko
Geneva. Tho Omaha man only Intended to
enter In ono event tho high Jump and his
friends felt confident ot his succcfs from
tho showing he has mado during the sea
son. His mark of C feet 11 Vi inches at the
association meet in Omaha on the Fourth
of July has not been equaled at any amateur
contest this year. In a letter to an Omaha
athleto Mr. McElroy said that he felt In
perfect condition, and that tho invigorating
Influenco ot th6 Wisconsin air gavo him rca
son to hopo that bo would scale six feet.
Tho most active feature In the associa
tion's athletic Ilfo during the Inst week has
been tennis. A number ot teams aro In
training for the handicap tourney scheduled
tor July 23, 20 and 27, and thcro Is every
prospect that tho gamo will take on a re
newed and vigorous lease of life after its
somnolent period of several years. Tho
local players are getting ready to par
ticipate actively in tho contest nt Lincoln
