DENVER PLAY BUSH LEAGUE BALL Twelve Errors Give Lincoln Eleven Unearned Runs DENVER, Colo., Aug. 26. Twelve errors by Denver tells a tale of disaster that needs neither comment nor figures. The bungling commenced with the first man to bat In the first Inning, and continued until eleven unearned runs had been made by Lincoln. The crowd that went out to root stayed to scoff, and no team was ever more unmercifully roasted than 'was the local one. Especially bad was the play In the fourth and fifth Innings. In the latter. three errors were made on the first and second man to bat McQrath, found by Catcher Sullivan down at Lamed. Kan., pitched fine ball for Lincoln, though the two runs made off him were both earned. Oagnier's play ing of short was not only perfect, but wonderful. Hogriever came near sharing honors, playing finely at second. A throw In by Belden was worthy of note. The score: DENVER. AB. R. H. O. Mang. 3b Belden. If Cassady, rf.. Jones, cf Lindsay, lb...

BOY PLAYS BRILLIANT GAME rhtladelphlan WU1 Play I.arned Today tor National Title Great Interest In the Match. NEWPORT. R I.. Aug. 2.-By taking three out of four hard-fought seta from Maurice F. McLoughlln, the Pacific coast champion, In the final rou td of tho twenty ninth annual tournament of the United States Natlotinl Lawn Tennis association on the Casino courts here today, William J. Clothier of Philadelphia won the right to play William A. Lamed for the national championship. Lamed and Clothier, who have met many times during the last few years, will play this most Important match of the year tomorrow. McLoughlln, who has startled the follow ers of the game by his speedy and brilliant playing throughout the tournament, made a game fight today and was loudly ap plauded by the large gallery for his work In the third set. Clothier had taken the first set by a narrow margra, t-3, and when he had captured the second, 6-4, the match seemed easily within his grasp. But Mc Loughlln showed no signs of discourage ment. Playing at his top game and again and again pausing the former champion on the side lines and scoring aces on his terrlflo serves, he forced the game to deuce repeatedly and finally succeeded In getting two games in succession and taking the set, 11-9. His strenuous work In this set, however, tired him greatly and, although he made a good start In the first part of the fourth set, he was unaole to maintain his accuracy and he drove the ball out and Into the net so often that Clothier had no difficulty In Inning the set, 6-8, and the match. Seldom has there been more Intense In terest in a challenge match than In that to be played tomorrow. Only the first American champion, R. D. Sears, who maintained that position for seven years, has exceeded Larned's record In national tltleholding, and only one other, R. D. Wrenn, has equalled It. If Lamed wins tomorrow he will enter on his fifth year as champion, having won the title In D01 from M. D. Whitman; successfully de fended It In 11X12 against the Englishman, R. F. Doherty, win It again In 1907 through the default of Clothier anv maintained It last year against Beals C. Wright. Lamed had to play through the tournament last year and he secured the old cup by the third winning of the championship In 1907. A victory tomorrow would g:ve him two legs on the new cup. Clothier in 1906 won the finals and then the championship by defeating Beals C. Wright. Larned sustained an Injury early this ytar which kept him out of the game for some time. Before he had fairly recovered he met and defeated Clothier at Longwood In five hard sets. Clothier later sprained an ankle. Apparently, however, both men have now recovered entirely, and as both are In their top form one of the best matches ever seen on the Casino court Is anticipated. , INTERNATIONAL TENNIS PLAY Hodge of Buffalo Defeats Fonlkea, Canadian Champion.
