Have you noticed how Kid LeBrand plays

Pop Eyler, lot's see. In which one of the
big leagues is he pitching nowT
The Des Moines Champs are not going to
lose .the Hag without a grand fight.
With catchers that knock home runs that
win amus, of oogrse. the Cubs are ahead.
Little Reddlck was not good enough for
Denver, but. he is playing great ball for
Lincoln.
Strange how. a lot of "snavs" can win the
pennant from seven teams of young
thoroughbreds, Isn't it?
The pole? Oh, tho one out there will d.i.
Just the flag is all that need be moved
over rrom Des Molncs.
Ducky. Holmes' press agent has written
Jack Thomas down as a "spavined cu.it
off from the Omaha club." Waking up at
last, ah?
Tho proposition of tho Lincoln manage
ment to play every other Lincoln series
In Fremont as a mcuns of getting out the
crowds Is now under consideration.
There's one thing strange about winning
a pennant, ss Hek says, that is, no one
concedes a fighting chance unless you are
In front. Of course, that couldn't apply to
Omaha.
Comlskey Is said to have promised Ducky
Holmes the Job of managing the Lincoln
team again next season. Commy probablv
thinks this Is belter than having to carry
Ducky on the White Sox pay roll. There's
nothing as worthless as a dead Duck.
The day Pa Rourke went to Grand Is

two Pa was right: Ornhsm s perhaps the
fastest Inflelder the Wet-tern leasue ever
saw, but that Isn't nnv discount on Rvan.
He, too. ' a fart one and a C"Od hitter

his brother, Felix, and servants, today left
this plsce, where he has been resting a
month for his summer place at New .Lon
don, Conn. Mr. Mansfield denied himself
absolutely to newspaper men and others,
but his brother, speaking for him, said:
"Mr. Mansfield Is feeling somewhat bettxr
than when he arrived last month. He has
not been out driving since the first day
he arrived here because of the bad roads,
which are not fit for a person suffering
from nervous prostration to ride over. He
spends his time sitting on the piazza read
ing, smoking and dictating letters. He waa
on the piazza today. He Is cheerful.
"We are leaving tonight for New London,
Conn. He may stay there until winter, or
he may stay there all winter, Just as he
feels. He has had no Intention since he
first realized that he was suffering from
nervous prostration of scting this season.
He resolved to take a full season's rest
and he will certainly do so.
"I expect In time that be will regain his
health completely and resume bis career
on the stage. His physician Is In Montreal
and has not seen him for nearly a week."

Sympathy with Whitney.
Great Interest attached to the Peters
Whitney match yesterday afternoon, be
cause of the remarkable showing the Col
orado champion had made when he beat
Sweet, the Des Moines champion Wednes
day afternoon. They were not disappointed
either In their expectations, for the doctor
played a hard game and for a time It
looked like he was going to brace ss he
had on the previous day. The crowd wns
with the doctor all the way through, not
that It did not like Peters' playing, but
Its sympathies were naturally with a man
who, at the age of 51, was striving to
best an athlete In the prime of life. Peters
excelled by rushing to the net more than
the doctor, who was forced to sprint more
backward and forward across the back
court. Dr. Whitney also seemed to lack tho
steam he possessed on the day before and
his returns did not have the vlni they did
when he defeated Sweet. Many times they
fell short and struck the net. Peters won
the first set with ease, the score being 6-1.
The second he fought a little harder and
In the third set he started off with con
siderable vim and won the first two games,
Peters then took hold of the reins and
showed he did not' Intend to have to play
another sot. Dr. Whitney won most of his
points by passing Peters, whereas he lost
most of them by driving Into the the net.
The scores: .
Finals won by Peters, 6-0, 6-3, 7-5.

Veterans iv to Defeat.
Another match which divided honors with
the finals In thelAmruonBhlp singles was
the doubles chaniplonthlp game between
the veterans. Yun)f "nd Caldwell, and the
youngsters. McConnbTl and Cub Potter, the
latter winning out )n a four-set match, the
scores being 6-4, i-Jt. 6-6, 6-4. The "kids"
took, the first game' quite handily, although
the veterana mode a hard fight. They
were evidently taken off their guard by
the lively game the yountfeters put up.
They played great -team work and rushed
to the net on every occasion, forcing the
play fast at all opportunities, whereas Sam ,
Caldwell tried to keep the, ball on the lob.
Young and Caldwell braced and won the
second set by 6-L but ths next two were
won by Potter and McConDell, although
most, of the games went to deuce and
every point was hotly contested, with the
ball being shot backward and forward for I
every point. So interesting did the match I
become as the battle waged that the large !
crowd stayed after the Peters-Whitney I
match to watch the locals fight It out. i
Potter and McConnell (ire both short ath
letes, whereas the other two are above the i
ordinary height, and this tended to add
Interest to the contest. But what they
lacked In height they made up In speed
and vim and finally won. The score:

Omaha Defeats St. Joseph.
Thursday morning at the Omaha Field
club was given over so playing off matches
In1 the championship doubles snd In the
consolation singles in the Mid West tennis
tournament, the heavy matches for the
rest of the week being held until afternoon
to give she gallery a better ppportunlty to
watch the sport. A lively wind was blow
ing across the courts which Interfered to
some extent with the play, but In spite of
that several good matches were witnessed
by tho more enthusiastic tennis fans.
Dr. Whitney, who defeated Sweet, the
Des Moines chaoiplon, after such a gruel
ling contest Wednesday afternoon, was out
good und early, warming up for his match
with Peters, the Chicago crack. In the
afternoon. He showed a slight stiffness st
first, but as he played several sets for
"fun" this soreness wore off and ho
rounded Into his old time form.
Word was received from Lafe Toung,
Jr., of Des Moines that he and a good
delegation of enthuslusts would be over
Friday noon to witness the finals and the
championship matches Friday and Satur
day afernoons.
Although the tournament has no shark
like Creigh Collins, the western champion,
the quaHty of tennis which Is being played
Is of the highest standard. The tourna
ment started out with tho best tennis men
the Missouri valley towns could send, snd
although many of these fceve been retired
there ate still msny good mstches left.
With the best plsyers and winners of
tournaments at Sioux City. Des Moines,
Kansas City, 8t. Joseph and Denver, the
committee feels that they gave the Omaha
lovers of the sport the best talent to be had
this summer In this section of the country.
Conrad Toung and Sam Caldwell took
the crack St. Joseph team. Moors and
Paust, Into camp Thursday morning, beat
ing them In straight sets. Caldwell resorted
to his lobtng grme, at which ne exrells, and
Toung was always on hand to put a lively
one down the line, Just out of reach of ths
Mlssourlans. Ths contest was eagerly
watched by the gallery and was the prin
cipal match of Interest during the forenoon.
The scores were:
Doubles First Round
Toung anj Caldwell 4 10 6 4 4 6 84 6

Hayes and Peters won from Sweet and
Dosh, the Iowa cracks, In straight sets,
although the first set went to duece. Both
teams played erratic tennis snd the wind
helped out to mske the game loose. Hayes
showed his old time form which he hai
displayed for several years while he was
winning championships over the west. The
scores were 7-6, 6-8.

ARMY HEADQUARTERS NOTES
British Cavalry Bit Wow on Exhibi
tion Is Not Liked by

the modified curb species and is extremely
heavy, with a curb chain strong enough
for a picket rope. The sides cf .the bit

ing the mouth of the animal. . It Is sup
posed to combine the ordlnsry riding serv
ice bit and watering bit. The Impression
among some of the ofllciTS who have ex
amined the bit Is that it Is hardly adapted
for the American cavalry service, but
might do for a heavy artillery horse bit.
