i . .Jk ) I 4 4 Bringing Up "YOU CO'N' TO "THE TEMPERANCE I ffTIIVc Tuit HUbBND and Judgments r THKRE ever was ny ap prehension that llic new Western league prexie. Frank C. Zehrung, would not prove a success at the helm' of this loop, It has boon quickly dis pelled. For tho Lincoln nmn haa slipped under Hie wire to a flying Mart and la clipping off the miles with all cylinders working smoothly. By way of proof that '.ehrung Is an unqualified success It la only neceasary to point to tho receptions accorded him In Des Moines and it. Joseph. It will be romemhered that dur ing the campaign to swing the axe over (he head of one Tip O' Nihil, two mag nates. Ishell and Holland, joined forces with Tip and fought to retain hiin. Both Des Moines and St. Joseph were O'Neill ltles. and tho supposition that both of these cities would be antagonistic to the new man was only natural. But, the sup position missed fire. Zohrung made a solid hit with the fans of both of these cities. He made talks before tho Com mercial clubs and found that the fans and business men were with him. Even In the O'Neill cities Tip la but a memory and a dim one at that. If Zehrung Is given the glad welcome in Ues Moines an.1 St. Joseph, the odds that he will be a hit in the other cltlea of the loop reach Into the high number. It look very much as If Frexle Zehrung Is going to pilot tho Western league ship In a most uccessful manner through a most suc cessful season thl year. One would take It that Jess Wlllard re Bards the public aa something to play with. The heavyweight champ aecms to regard hla coming match wtuv Moran in the light of a Joke. He Is training about thirty mlnutea a day. and lf perfunctory training at that, according to presa dis patches from Gotham. Apparently Wll lard believes Moran a joke fighter and In tends merely to bluff through the ten rounds on the defensive and then collect the $-17,(100. Despite' the fact that he In stantly became popular by defeating Johnson a year ago, Wlllard la making hlmscir thoroughly disliked by boxing fans all over the country by hla dilatory and procrastinating tactics, and there won't be any mourners at hla funeral If Moran should be fortunate enough to tack the K. O, sign on nun. One Improvement In Western league games that will be manifestly apparent this 'v-ear. will be the Improvement in the umpiring. President Zehrung Is tak ing the best available. In addition, the double system wll be employed. Where one ump of uncertain ability called de cisions last year there will be two of proven competency this year.. The double umpiring system has always proved more satisfactory, because It makes pos sible more accurate decisions and put speed Into the games. The Western has innde a wise move In returning to the double system. New Tork tells as that Jess Wlllard's circus contract calls tor a weekly sti pend of 15,000. Tommy Jones has been hiding the Uothamltes again. Owner nU managers of circuses are not bred of the sucker class they play the sucker class and they are not foolish enough lo pay a procrastinating champ such an exorbitant sum. especially when they lmv thev can net him for muuh less. Five thousand a month would be more iikclv n.l rvc-n then t:ie sweet fragrance of a prs agent yarn continues to per meate tho a'mosplicre. Kenny Kauff. having at last agreed to uhiv with the Giants, we will now learn vhether this precious young man is ,.l hlutanf hlented. aelf-ODlnton pill ated youth or a real ball player. Benny - - 1 ' has been quite successful this winter In telling the world how good he Is. Another week or two and well know wnetner Benny's opinion of himself is unanimous or not. Grover I-and was purchased by 8ioux City a year ago for $1,000. Grover re ported, the purchase money was paid over and then Grover Jumped. Now comes the news that Land has been sold to St. Paul by Ward and is not returned to Sioux City. Ed Hunlon is out Just $l.oCO, and once more we have an example of how the majors trample on the help less minors. It's getting monotonous. The last of the base hall suits has len withdrawn. The 8t. lxuls Cardinals have withdrawn their suit In the Fnlted States circuit court at St. Louis against Lee Magee, filed when Lee hurdled to the Feds. Let us hope the owners and players will curb their greediness suf ficiently so that the pastime will con tinue to remain out of the clutches of tho legal fraternity. Battling Nelson may bring suit against his father for $2,000. The Battler, hav ing rid himself of a wife through the kindly offices of the court, seems to 'lieve that the court is of such phllan V hroplo character that this time it will award him almost aa much money as Jes Wlllard gets for exhibiting himself. Relative ability to wield the hammer has always bean a point for argument among sport writer, but the Philadel phia scribe who predicts the cellar for both Macks and I'hlls must he rvcn the honors.

SENDS ITALIAN TO THE FLOOR NEW YORK, March 1.-Benny Ion anl established himself at the head of the M3-pound class by outpointing Johnny Dundee, his closest rival. In a majority of ten whirlwind rounds at Madison Pqunre Garden. I-ennnrd also broke a record by flooring the Italian lightweight with a snappy left hook to the Jaw, It was the first time such a thing ever hap pened to Dundee siiu-o ho became a star. leonard fought a wonderfully clever battle, displaying everything that goes to make up a great fighter. T,hp only fault with his work was that he was Just a shade too cautious or he might have won more decisively. It was not until near the end that he began to do much dam age. Inmdee. as usual, fought with the fran tic .vigor which la characteristic of him.- I'rged on by the yells of his ad. mlrers, who were In particularly good voice, he never stopped plunging In. Con fident that hla sturdy Jaw could with stand his rival's blows, he took reckless chances In the hope of landing one of his desperate swings on the right spot. Footwork Rare Hint. Leonard's footwork saved lilm from many a swishing swing that whizzed by within an Inch of his chin. He drifted here and. there about the ring on feet that seemed barely to touch the canvas and often the wildly plunging Dundee went headlong into the ropes aa his op ponent stepped lightly aside. That Leonard can take a -punch was shown In the flrat round when Dundee nailed him on the chin with a left hook that had every ounce of strength In his sinewy back and shoulders behind it. It threw Leonard against the ropes, but he bounoed back into a clinch and smiled in the direction of his corner to relieve the anxiety of hla seconds. Dundee vai very wild in hla eagerness to follow up and Leonard coolly checked hlra with a rigid left arm. Dundee took the first three rounds. lie cut out a pace that waa too hot to fol low. Realising that hla opponent could not stand the strain for long, Leonard wisely held back until Dundee had fought himself out. While the aggres sive Italian plunged and tore Leonard merely glided out of danger, occa sionally shooting In g straight left. By the time the fourth round opened Dundee's speed had diminished some what and Leonard set out to take the lead. He shot a stream of Jabs to the face and Dundee broke ground. Leonard brought his right into action in the next period, getting home solidly with a aeries of uppereuts. Dundee slipped to the floor In this round when Leonard snapped a right to the Jaw Just as ha missed a vicious awing. In the eighth Leonard scored a clean knockdown shortly after the round opened. In an exchange of left hooks Leonard beat him to the punch and Dundee went flying back on his haunches. He bounded up at ones, wild with rage, and Leonard measured htm coolly with a right uppercut and hooks, cutting his lips and Jarring him to the toes. Both let themselves out to the limit In the final round. Dundee was franti cally eager, but wild. Leonard waa cool and cautious, watching for the chance to slip across a right that would end It. Twice be let drive with right crosses with everything he had behind them. The first one missed, but the second glanced off Dundee's Jaw. The blow was deliv ered with such force that Leonard threw himself off his feet. Eastern Golfers Start a Rebellion On Amateur Rule NEW YORK. March IS. There Is a rumor to the effect that a campaign la being launched to have the rule defining an amateur golfer changed. These rumors are uncertain things, likewise convenient for those desiring to "start something," but It may be that the one referred t has some foundation. Vurttn .-more, it Is said that a petition la btlng circu lated over Boston way and that those at the head of the movement are hopeful o getting thousands of signers. Thus far there haa been no tangible evidence of aald petition, which may not have got past the rumor stage, but even If It should, and the petition in question become black with the names of protest Ing golfers, what then? The petition, ct course, would In due time find Us way to headquarters. By that la meant the office of the president of the United States Golf association, who haa already declared himself" emphatically in favor of the new rule. For that matter. have most of the other members of the executive committee. It has been stated already upon good authority that the United States Golf association will not back up an inch from, Its stand, which it tel!evea to be the right one. Loyalty to the parent organization la always to be desired, tine there can be no laetlng success. TITE OMAHA Copyright, m.

RAH-RAH BOYSSTART WORK Dartmouth and Brown Look- For ward to Most Successful Cam paign on Diamond. PEINCT0N LOSES VETEEANS NEW YORK, March 18.-The college base ball teams have begun practice In earnest. The pitchers have loosened their arms with the preliminary battery work and now the other members are trying to find their batting eyes In the dim light of the base ball cages. Dartmouth la filled with glee at the unusual prospects at Hanover. The Green Mountain boys have always turned out fair base ball teams, but the outlook this year promises a championship team. Dartmouth lost only three players last year, Wanamaker, , Parrot t and Baker. These were all battery men and the In field and outfield la intact. The most promising candidates are Doyle, Eskelln. Perkins, Williams, Oer rish. Murphy, Osborn and Paine. The weakness In the box la not as bad as It was thought at first, for Holmes, Doyle and Kent are showing some speed and curves which do not seem so easy to solve. Dartmouth, however, plans on develop ing a heavy batting team to offset the possible ' weakness of the pitchers. For this reason, batting practice la playing an Important part in the cage work, and Coaoh Haiclton is pleased with the prog ress shown by tils charges. Brown, Dartmouth's old rival, is also trying out its base ball candidates under the watchful eye of Coach Harry Pat- tee. Pitchers seem to be scarce In New England this spring, and a half dosen twlrlers are trying to persuade Pattee that they are good enough to hold up the honor of Providence. The two men who have caught Pat tee's eye more than the others are David son and Krlckson. These two boys are from Providence and they are making good. Davidson is an lnflelder and Krickson la a catcher. Bulllvan and Healy are also attracting attention by their assortment of curves and speed. Brown has always been famed for th excellence of the twlrlers, and Pattee is not worrying much. Quite In contrast with the prospects of Brown and Dartmouth are the chances of Princeton this year. Coach Bill Clark haa lost most of his good men by grad uation, and he frankly admits he does not know who ,are going to fill their places. His toughest problem Is to de velop an outfield. Jesse Hoyt, who had first call on the center field position, and was elected captain, was forced to resign and give up base ball because of an athletlo heart. Drlgga will probably get the Job, as he waa substitute for Hoyt m several games last year. Klther Tibbott or Corey, sub stitutes last year, or Lee and Hammond, members of the freshmen team, will get the other Jobs In the garden. Veterans Arc Back. Clarke rejoices in the fact that Deyo, Chaplin and Link are back again, and In addition to these pitchers, there is Warburtou, who waa ineligible all last year. Thompson, who waa a regular freshman pitcher, will also help out. QUI and Salmon have graduated, and that will cause some shifting In the In field. Kellcher is the only first string catcher In college, and Douglass will probably move In from first to catcher, while Scully will take Douglass' place. Captain Law will be the second base man end third II" between Shea and llov.eU.

Connie Callahan Is ths early bird. Connls reported laat week. Calla han has been wintering In Boston. Sioux City will not report at FeJrbury for spring training until AprtT 1. several days after Omaha starts at Beatrice. Iskell Grabs Coal Miser, Frank Isbell of Des Moines has signed a coal miner for his ball club. The knight of ths pick is a pitcher named James Grant. He Is Zl years old and halls from High Bridge, la., where he hurled semi-pro ball last year. H els a southpaw and made a mark last year by whiffing nineteen men in a gams with Adel, la., and by shutting out the crack Atlantic. la., team, on which Artie Thom ason and Ebsen Closman played. Isbell Is working on the hunch that both Ed Walsh and Benny Kauff were once coal miners. In a fanning bee at Des Moines the day Isbell sprung a yarn on Roxy Mld dleton and George Graham that Is worth repeating. Omaha and Wichita were playing and Mlddlrton reached first base. Graham was holding down second for the Rourkes. The next man up hit a grounder toward second. Oraham slopped the ball, but It rolled away from him several yards Into the outfield. Middle ton tore around aecond and on to third. Graham fielded the ball and glancea up In time to see Roxy rounding third and feinting to return to that sack. Gra ham In a fit of peevish angnr threw the ball down Into his gloved hand and leisurely turned to throw It to the pitcher. He than heard cries from his teammates and looked up Just in time to see Middle ton crossing the plate. Roxy walked over to the bench, sat down and drawled without a smile: "I guess that will shut up the Ty Cobb talk In this league for a few days." Ws don't know how true this story Is, it Isn't ours. Patterson with t. Joseph No more does Doe White, former White Box star, quit the Western league than another one bobs up. Roy Patterson, an old White Sox hurler, haa been signed to labor for Jack Holland's At. Joseph club. Patterson was a great hurler in hla day, but he's pretty much of a vet eran now and it Is questionable to say ths least If be haa ths ability to stick In Claaa A company.

Drawn for The 1 iJ INSURANCE ON THE BIG MIX Tez Rickard to Take Out Serenty Five Thousand-Dollar Policy on Appearance of Pujs. POLITICIANS FALL DOWN HARD NEW YORK, March It With the 4e bate of the big fight drawing near and the Interest In It increasing, "Tex" Klc kard, whose princely offer Induced "Jess" Wlllard and Frank Moran to sign con tracts, and the officials of the "how corporation, which will stage the bout. are considering the advisability of tak Ing out a policy for f76,O0O in Insure the appearance of the principals In the ring on the night of March 2i. This would mors than cover the total amount of the purse to be divided be tween the two. Ths proposed policy would cover accidents to either Moran or Wll lard, which would mean an indefinite postponement of the fight. Little fear is felt by sny of those con nected with the fight that the efforts of either Stats Senator John J. Dunnlgan or Assemblyman Martin McCue to induce the legislature to prevent the bout will be successful. The attitude of Assemblyman McCue, who years ago waa a familiar figure In the roped arena and who has ever sines taken an active interest In pugilism, on tho WllWird-iuoran match la beyond the understanding of those Interested In tho promotion of It. ,r Both Senator Dunnlgan and Assembly man McCue Indignantly deny the report that the failure to receive passes to the show has anything to do wltn their hos tility to the match. There is also a report that the true reason for the attacg of the leglslato-s In question la their grievance, real i fancied, against the personnel of the flats athletic commission. However, the whole matter Is generally conceded to oc nothing more than a tempest In a teapot. ILLINOIS TRACK TEAM WILL INVADE THE EAST T'RHANA. III.. March 1S.

Already several otmreglloivi are anx iously awaiting the day for the hell of the Oinahn Amateur imcn.'lnllon to offi cially tingle. A few practice arguments have been billed for this afternoon and It Is a safe wager that the majority of the sand lots will bo covered with bull tossers today. The committee oppnlnled by the direc tors of the Omaha Amateur association to draft a constitution will In all prob ability have It ready to bo approved or rejected by next Wednesday, when they will convene in the city hall. This sea son all the leagues will bo governed by this constitution, and although they may adopt a few restrictions which the con stitution will nut contain, nevertheless. all disputes taken to tho board will be settled according to the constitution.

Wednesday the Metropolitan league will hold another meeting and complete all their unfinished business, so they will be ready for the curtain to raise.

All teams In this leagus ars re quired to deposit their forfeit money with the secretary on or before April I, or forfeit their franchise. That Booster league composed of young sters that live up to their appellation will meet March 2. From present Indications the prospe its are not very bright for the Church league to reorganise. According to the dope a couple of teams have been or ganised, but the base ball activity it the other managers Is lying dormant. The Southern league, one of the strong organisations In class B circles, have Just about decided to close their books with six teams, unless a few ambitious managers that, are desirous of entering this leagus make an application to President Hubatka, before their next meeting, which will be held at ths city hall, Wednesday.
