Just how disastrous hai been the base
tml season, now on its wane, will likely
never be known. It is only certain that
more clubs have lost money than have
earned a profit; that the morale of the
game hns been distinctly lowered and that
Incalculable harm hat been done through
the oauhtng of managerial Interests.
Whatever interest the public may have
had In the quarrel between tho National
find American organizations was easily ex
hausted before the season had fairly opened
and the owners of the teams very soon
abandoned their pretentious rivalry In an
effort to attract attendance tu the games.
1'ubllshed figures Indicate that the crowds
have been Increasing as the season has
progressed, but there was a time when the
llg league clubs were playing before crowds
whose admission fees would not pay for
thu balls used up in the course of a game.
Such facts arc sure to make, the magnates
think and It Is a reasonable presumption
that the fall and winter sessions of the
cwn'rs will have more to do with how to
correct the mistakes of the last season
than with laying plans for any more war.
It, orr own little league there Rre signs
of discontent The situation of Indianapolis
era Louisville is still n source of unrest
10 mo . extern magnates, who want to
in lude these towns In the circuit. So
somo talk of n ten-club league Is heard
It will likely end In talk, though. Kau
nas City and Minneapolis, where the game
l.as been a loser this season, are figuring
now on dropping Omaha, Denver and Colo
icdo Springs and subst.tuting Mllwnunkee.
Indianapolis nnd Louisville. Now, wouldn't
that Jar you? Of course, it Is rather early
to lay cot circuits, but some of the dope
Ilcnus keep their pipes going all the time.
Otic thin seems reasonable however, and
that Is that the magnates will think a long
time before they turn down Omaha In favor
of any other city now on the circuit. The
ntlenannce here has been better and
steadier than anywhere In the Western
lcaguo nnJ there Is no reason to think It
will be less. And it is attendance that

tretne. A ball player Is never Justified .n
personally assaulting an umpire. His re
course is In an entirely different direction.
If a player should so far forget himself as
to transcend the rules of decency as did
Bhugart and McOlnnlty. It Is only right
that they should be prevented as far as
possible from ever showing themselves in
n ball player's uniform again. Ban Jchn-
son will have the thanks of all lovers of
the game for his prompt action in removing
rowdies.
Another thing that has caused some lit
tle comment during the week Is the an
nouncement that the National league is
going to withdraw the protection It has
hitherto afforded the minor leagues. This
means In plain English that the big league
proposes to take Its pick of the minor
league players without as much as saying
by your leave. Just what the minor leagues
can do In the matter Is a question. Presi
dent Hlckey Is out with a call for a con
vention and proposes to lay down certain
rules to govern players who Jump minor
league contracts and fall to make good In
the big league. This makes one think ot
the convention the hens held when they
pasbed n resolution denouncing the fox. It
didn't help the hens and It didn't hurt
the fox. The course adopted by the big
league Is only another evidence that the
morale of the game has suffered ns a re
sult of the season. It may not be that
the fiber of the fabric hoR been attacked.
Indeed, all lovers of the noble sport will
hope It ha( not. yet there seems some
thing radically wrong when professed busi
ness men will thus violate not only Im
plied, but written obligation. If the major
league adheres to Its proposition to drny
protection to the minor leagues and re
fuses to recognize any but Its own desires,
then tbre Is surely nn era of demoraliza
tion In prospect.

Ouuht to Win nrerj- Game They
Go Into, with Prohnhly
One Kxceptlon.
As n sirlklng example of the deficiency
in morals of tho game It Is unnecessary to
go bjyond the recent exhibitions given by
Frank Shugart of the Chicago American
teum and Joe McOlnnlty of the Baltlmores
Shugart struck Umpire Haskell, while
Kr.toll of his team kicked him, and Mr
C.lnnlty spat In the face of Umpire Connolly
Not so many people out here know cither
of these players, nnd yet there are those
who recall Frank Shugart as the quiet,
active shortstop of the Minneapolis team
of 1800, when ho was looked upon as a
comer. He showed no signs of being a
rowdy then, nor bm ho since, until this
year. Very few Omaha people who mot
Joe McGlnulty last summer when he was
visiting his people here willingly believe
that the modrst gentleman they then shook
hands with and talked to could be guilty of
tho hoodlumlsm he exhibited on the dln
mond In Daltlmore. Vet all who are In
nny wuy conversant with tho facts will
applaud Dan Johnson for the promptness
with which he fastened sentences upon
these offenders, and few will regret their
fuvcrlty. Only cne thing Is to be deplored,
and that Is thnt the American league has
not the means of malting Its sentences ef
fective throughout tho base ball world.
Whenever It becomes thoroughly under
stood that a player cannot he a rowdy and
remain In the game. It will be n glorious
day for base ball The managers seek con
tlnuRlly to nttri.ct people of good breeding
and gentle manners to the raracs, nnd when
there go It Is to be regaled with nn ex
hibition of n greft a'hletlr spcrt and nut
with an Imitation of n bar room brawl. To
Vltk 1 as natural as to breathe with a ball
player, yet he must ufro tho fame Judgment
in making his kicks he does In his playing
Ordinarily much will be excused cf a
flayer for what he dors In heat engen
dered by the "rigor of the game," and he
may find partisans In tbe extrcmcstc show of
temper. It has happened that the umpire
has been assaulted by the crowd. Admit-
Much might be written of the course of
the pennant races. In the National either
I'lttsburg or Brooklyn may win. St. Louis
Is not an impossibility, but hardly a proba
bility The Cardinals are not pUylns con
sistent ball. In the American, Chicago and
Boston arc having It ding dong for the
first place, and cither may land. With
Griffith tripplcd and Shugart and Katoll
out of the game for good, the White Stock
ings are hard hit, nnd tho chance looks
better for Boston. Here again comes up
the evil of a ball player'B temper. Just
because Shugart haw fit to soak Jack
Haskell in the Jaw, while Katoll kicked
him on the shin. Chicago may lose the
championship, while Haskell draws pay for
the time he 1b In the hospital and Shugart
is out of the game for all time ns far as
th American league Is concerned.
In the Western, Kansas City Is playing
true to form, and holds the lead as casllj
as at any time during the summer. Hardly
a mtracle could head off the Tebeau team
now. For second place, at least five
other teamr. have a show. Mlnneapoltt
and Des Moines seem about the only clubb
that cannot honestly aspire to finish sec
ond This condition of affairs will maU'
the finish as warm as any series of th'
whole season. Omaha has n good oppor
tunlty. owing to tho fact that the conclud
Ing game3 of the schedule are played on
the home grounds, but the Inconsistent per
formance of the Rourke family will hardb
reasrure Its friends. In fact few people in
Omaha will be surprised at the final stand
ing of the team It Is one of the finest ag
gregation of fielders ever gotten together In
the west and one of the most erratic withal
Some of the games played during the recent
trip, If the scores were accurate, would dis
grace a corner lot team, and others were
of the sclntlllntlng sort. The pitchers per
formed very much the same as tho fielders
and the result. Is a showing that covers the
whole range of base ball from rotten to the
best ever. Just what the trouble Is can
only be conjectured, but there is something
out of gear somewhere. At present the
team Is going fast again and patrons feel
certain of seeing good ball whenever they
go down to Vinton Street park. Some are
disappointed that tho team has not held a
higher place In the standing table all
through the season. In and out work has
been responsible nnd we will have to be
content with what we have. Tho race Is
clcse enough to suit anybody.
As the time approaches for the opening
of the university at Lincoln Interest Is re
viving in foot ball. Captain Westover of the
Nebraska team has announced that the foot
ball squad will go Into camp at South Dend
September 2. The men will live In tents
along the riatte river and begin their
training at once. A new tackling machine
will be set up for the candidates to practlco
on. The time at camp will be spent In
cross-country running, swimming, tackling
and punting. These men will begin train
ing Monday: Captain Westovor, Brew,
Crandtll. Cortelyou, Stringer, Bell, Shedd,
Maloney, Koehler, Lchmcr, Bender and
Ityan. Coach Booth and Manager Cowglll
will follow tho party with the other men
later.
Captain Westover, to speaking of the
season's prospects, says that Nebraska
should win every one of Its games, with the
possible exception of the one with Wiscon
sin. All of last year s team will be uacx
but Montgomory and Cook. Old men of
former 'vanity teams who will be back are
Kingsbury, right tackle In S and 'S9.
Stinger, end In !7 and '8S, and Bell, right
hr.lf on the '09 team.
The line this year will be the most
formidable one that has ever lined up
for Nebraska. The candidates for the
ends are Stringer, Kyau, Cortelyou
and Johnson, who huvc all played
at least one season on the 'varsity
and Shedd, a 180-pound roan from the Lin
eoln High school. For the tackles are Cap
tain Westover, cx-Cnptaln Brew; Kingsbury
and Mlilile of the Lincoln High school. For
the guards are Illnger of the 'varsity. and
Martin and Hubbard of the High BChool
Koehler will be back to try for his old posl
tlon at center and Maloney, n 220-pound
man, will try to win a place. Drain nnd

year.
The Iowa team has also adopted the camp
ing out method and has pitched Its tents
on the Iowa river, Just outside of Iowa
City. Coach Knlpe will not arrive until
late this week and the preliminary prac
tice work will be In charge of Captain
Williams and Assistant Coach Hobbs.
The Hawheyes hare already raised a
hard-luck cry, but from the best Informa
tion r large proportion of the old squad
will go Into training again this year. Cap

other worthy substitutes such a Selberts.
Coulthard. Herbert, Macy and Hollenbeck
are all likely to make the first eleven
this year. Among the new men are Half
back Crum of Bedford, brother of the
famous sprinter of that name.
The Minnesota team likewise has the
camping habit and the squad Is nicely set
tled at Grand Marata, Minn, on the nortn
shore of Lake Superior. Dr. 11. L. Wil

hat has ever lined up for Nebraska.
The material for the end positions Is
better this year than It has ever been be
'crr. The three end men of last year's
varsity vvere the fastest ends for the
.eight anywhere In the west. Stinger, who
velghs 190 pounds, played on two cham-
lonshtp teams nnd won a place on nil ihe
vestern team both years. Shcda, the ISO-
pound Lincoln boy. has been considered
the best end on any High school In the
btate for the last three years. These men
will make two sets of ends that will tear
up tho heavy Gopher formations, nnd will
give the Badger backflcld such a smashing
ns It has never received before.
It looks as though Nebraska will have a
light speedy back field again this year.
Crandall, Bender, Bell and Eager, candi
dates so far for the halves, are all light
men but very fast. So far as Is known,
,none of last year's fullbacks will try for
the team. Cook and Plllsbury will not re
turn to school, nnd Raymond will not play.
Kingsbury, who is a terrific line buckT,
may be used In that position. He was used
behind the line part of the '99 season.
The new men as yet are rather unknown
quantities. Several heavy men with more
or less gridiron exporlence have signified
their Intention of entering school. Besides
those nlready known, there will undoubt
edly be many others who will make their
appearance after hard practice begins at
Lincoln.
Manager Cowglll has arranged the tcs'

In concluding his outline ot tho season's
work, Captain Westover said the prcspects
for a championship team were better than
ever before, and with suffclent support

After unlimited palaver there Is a real
probability that Jeffries and Iluhlln will
come together within the ropes. George
Slier who will referee tho go glvce the fol
lowing review ot the negotiations "Last Jan
uary everything looked rosy for the glen s of
the ring to contest for the championship In
Cincinnati, but the Ohio state author). les
took a band in the game and had no dlffl
culty lu convincing the court that rrt e
fighting was a nuisance. That ended flghi
proceedings between Jim and Gus for ih-
time being, but Billy Madden, determlcel
to have his protege. Kuhlln, take a whirl
out of the champion, has persistently k-p
after Jeffries to Inveigle him Into a match.
To accomplish this Madden, with Iluhlln
and his colored heavyweight. 'Denver Ed'
Martin, traveled from New York to San
Francisco by easy stages, and was ie
warded by arranging details with Billy De
laney for a battle with the champion. Arti
cles similar to those drawn up for the.r
Cincinnati meeting were signed, San Frtn
clcco clubs notified to bid for the contest,
and I was selected to referee the mill."
In explanation ot tho calling eft of ths
Hart-Hanrnhan fight, which was to l:av
taken place befbre the Southern Athletic
club at Louisville, Manager Grays says:
"I was deceived regarding Hart's c-ndl-tlon
by John Burns, his manager. That Is
all there Is to It. We have bocn stating
continually that Hart was In splendid ihop
and ready to box for his life, when we were
Ignorant of facts. Hart Is out ot the pug!
llstlc game for some time. Sick tor nrre
than a week, he kept 'under cover." and de
clared he never felt better. Burns Insisted
that Hart was In perfect condition, and as
late as 11 o'clock Wednesday night tele
phoned me that Hart was all right. At the
came time he warned me not to b-lleve
any statements that Hart was In trad rbaps.
He said these stories emanated from malic
ious ources. Rumors began to reach us
that Hart was very sick, and upon Investi
gation we fount, that he was not enly to
sick to fight, but that h would not be able
to enter the ring for some months. As a
consequence, we were compelled to call the
bout oft."
'Tlaylng much golf thuse line daysV
was the question put to a member ot mo
Country club, who was enjoying the cool
south brcete on the club house veranda.
"Oh! Yes." was the reply. "Have to
keep my eye and hand In and try to win
out In some of these handicap games tor
cups and things.
"What about golf form, did you ask?
Well tnat Is what sometimes set me to
thinking In relation to the ultimate out
come of golf In the middle west. Here we
arc. i new club with but ft few old-time
players, and the beginners ore naturally
dependent for Instruction upon those who
know how, they must go it blind nnd trust
to Providence ond a good driver to win
out. Those 'Must to Providence' piajcrs
are more numerous than one would
imagine nnd it you know anything about
golf as it should be played In good form. It
will Interest you to watch a few of tho play
ers and take notes.
"Don't know much about golf form?
Well. Just watch that player over there at
ihe tenth tee nnd sec him drive. He Is one
of the "T to I" men and you will notice
that bis address to the ball Is rather stiff
and awkward, and did you see that 'pull
back' of the body after he struck the ball,
thereby throwing his weight on the right
foot Instead of following through nnd land
ing on the left foot. He sliced the bnll and
can't rasslbly help It owing to his style of
driving or rather want of style.
"Golf Is like many more games. A good
player may have a particular style or form
of his own. but If he has learned the game
In his youth, he learned the true form first
and then when he became proficient
adopted n style of his own. Give mc a man
with the long back swing with the driver
and the clear 'follow through and I will
bet you golf balls to marbles that he Is a
good player.
Jlnrd 'Work la Puttie.
"New clubs are starting up all over tho
country and. If the players are not prop
erly Instructed In the art of using clubs
for different tees, the time will be when we
will have more poor players than good
ones. This everlasting swatting at the ball
often with the wrong club, Is not golf and
tends to demoralise the player. To play
properly one has to have Intelligence In
tho use of club, a good eye and norvo. Ho
must not only be able to play the loug
game, but must be able to get out of
difficulties quickly and without undue pen
alty. If he makes a poor stroke he must
have the power ot discernment to under
stand what the trouble Is and be able to
avoid the same grief In the future.
"Why 1b It that some players have no
trouble In placing the ball In a straight
line with the hole on a short or long
annroach shot while another player will
slice and pull the ball to all eternity
slmnly because the first doesn't follow-
through and is thinking more about dls
tance than direction.
"One swallow never made a summer, Is
true, and It is equally true that a good
drive from the tee never won a match.

The fiercest striiKgle In tennis witnessed
in Omaha In many a year occurred last
week. In the city championship doubles at
the Athletic association courtB. Young and
Caldwell had won their way to the finals In
spite of a heavy handicap of owe thirty.
Austin nnd Clarke wero equally successful
laboring under a handicap of owe fifteen.
The match was to have bocn two in three,
but the first two went to Young and Cald
well without difficulty, 6-1, 6-3. The win
ning players thereupon, out of lovo of
sport nnd lust ot tlghilng, suggested that
tho match be made beet three tu five. Thlb
generosity almost cost them the match.
Austin and Clarke took a wonderful brnco
In the next two setB and carried off both,
the score stondlng S-C. 2-6.
The fierco play came In tho fifth and
deciding set. Uoth Young nnd Caldwell
had been bentrn by Austin In the singles
and were out for blood. Clarke, who has
never given particular attention to this
branch of athletics, surprised tho gallery by
his aggressive, accurate play. Caldwell
caught a smashed ball between the eyes
and vvas temporarily Incapacitated for duly.
Tho games mounted to -l-I, 0-3, and finally
