New York, Aug. 10. Babe
Ruth hit his 42nd home run of

son of Kellerton, la., and Charles
Bobbitt of Lancaster, O. C. C.
Davis of Columbus, said by many
sport writers who have seen him
in action, to be the equal of cither
Jackson or Bobbitt, wishes to meet
both.
Bobbitt won a national tourna
ment held at St. Petersourg, Fla.,
last February under auspices of the
National League of Horseshoe
Pitchers, the oldest horseshoe pitch
ing organization in . the United
States. ':
Jackson also won a national tour
nament held at Akron,,., last Au
gust under the auspices of this league
but failed to participate in the later
tournament in ' Florida. Bobbitt,
therefore, claims Jackson forfeited
the title.

N. Y. Firemen's
Nine "Kick" on
Cross-Eyed Ump
Chicago Tribune-Omaha Bee Leased H ire.
Chicago, Aug. 10. Base ball play
ers from the New York fire depart
ment, who arrived yesterday to en
gage the Chicago firemen in a scries
of games, put up a tremendous kick
when they learned Ben Turpin, the
celebrated movie actor, had been ten
tatively chosen as umpire.
"Not a chance," said Chief Kenton
of the Gotham squad. "Turpin is too
efficient. With his cross-eyes he can
watch the batter and the base run
ners without twisting his neck. My
"Babe Ruths" are not accustomed to
cross-eyed umpires."
After a heated argument the Chi
cago team agreed to withdraw Mr.
Turpin as umpire and relegate him
to the subsidiary job of batboy.
Turpin has been aiding the Chi
caeo firemen in raising the $100,000
for the Firemen's Mutual Aid and"
Beneficiary association. Ninety thou
sand dollars of this amount already
is in.
