No games played yesterday; teams travel
ing.
Manager Walt McCredie and his re
juvenated equad open with the Bees
at Salt Lake City this afternoon. Two
new men will be with the team, and
perhaps both will have a chance in the
lineup Hammond at short and Carlisle
in one of the outer gardens.
When McCredie stepped aboard the
train for Salt Lake City the spectacle
was a sad one. Walt had all the ap
riea.ra.nce of one departing for his own
funeral. The big boss views with alarm
the outcome of the pennant race, in
his opinion the Beavers' chances for the
flag- cracked at about tne same instant
as Robert Davis' knee. "
Walt figures that it will be a pretty
tough job to put a new man in his in
field and attempt to run the gauntlet
from fifth place to the top of the flag
staff between now and October 24.
However, it is to be remembered that
the Beavers brought home the bacon in
1911 when Bill Kodgers jumbled the
beans by breaking his leg just as the
fight was becoming interesting. This
time it was Bill Lindsay who was
. hustled out here to fill the gap. and
-Bill did the trick. If Hammond can
go through and the team gathers the
old fighting spirit once again like It did
then, there is still some hope. At the
present, however. Manager McCredie
views the situation in about the same
light as George S tailings does the
chances of the Braves.
Portland twirlers pitched some awful
ball last week. In the Los Angeles
series the twirlers were good and the
hatters poor; against the Seals the situ
ation was reversed.
McCredie's hope is that the pitchers
will pull themselves together, Kahler
begin pitching unbeatable ball and
-Hammond and Carlisle prove sensa
tions. Robert Keefe and Walter Doane both
departed for the sunny south -following
Sunday's fracas. Keefe received the
blue slip and said that he would not
attempt to play any more ball this sea
son, at least. Doane went to join Doctor
White's Vernon Tigers.
Robert Davis will have a chance to
. Inspect the scenery about Portland until
" his injured knee is well. He was left
- behind when the team went east, and
- will not be called for until his peg is
- again in first-class working order.
Z As a parting shot to Walter Carlisle
one of the Los Angeles papers says:
"Walt in some ways has been done
an injustice here. Not in'the trade, but
- in the accusations that he was going
out of the way and jeopardizing his
- neck to stage 'grandstand stuff.' His
actions in left field caused him to be
called 'The Roll-Over Kid." This title
was not entirely justified in the spirit
in which it was given.
- "Carlisle did roll over more than once,
but in so doing he captured a lot of
balls that spoiled batting averages.
; When the crowd began guying him he
stopped the habit, and, incidentally,
didn't get as many flies as before."
One of Carlisle's famous "stunts" was
to come In on a short fly, dive for it
j and turn a complete somersault that
is. before the Los Angeles press and
public began to ridicule him for it.
However, there was method in his
madness. He is an expert gymnast, and
by taking these chances pulled down
many that he would not otherwise have
caught.
Walter is not a good judge of a fly
ball hit over his head. It was because
of this that he was forced to make
many one-handed stabs that, after a
time, made the crowd think he was
taking unnecessary chances to pull
"grandstand stuff."
Judge McCredie received word yes
terday that the University of Chicago
equad. with which the Beavers have
scheduled an exhibition game for Mod
. day. August 16, will be here on time.
The collegians are on their way to
China by way of San Francisco and the
Hawaiian Islands.

Spokane Racer Arrives Tor Meet on
Saturday and Sunday.
Ray Paulsen, of Spokane, is the first
of the auto-race drivers to arrive in
this city for the auto race meet at the
Speedway next Saturday and Sunday
Mr. Paulsen has the reputation of being

. chines will arrive, and another will
also arrive from Seattle.
Every car that raced in the Inter
city Century at Tacoma has been
thoroughly gone over, new parts sup

others.
As soon as a car has been passed it
has finished and is dropped out, and
the race continues until one car has
. successfully passed the others. The
; Australian pursuit race is a decided

: i-acing. as will the 25-mile race, in
which every car entered for the Port,
land meet is eligible.

; PO.VTRESIXA IS DERBY W1XXER
" German Event Has Greatest Number
of 'Starters in History.
HAMBURG, via London, July 19.
The Deutsches Derby, the biggest
sporting event of the year in Ger
many, was won today by Haniel's
Pontresina with Jockey Pleurchke up.
The prize for the winner was 125,000
marks.
The race was run on a muddy track,
which put the favorites out of com
mission at the start. Archibald, an
American jockey, riding Soleil, fin
1 " ' 1 .
ished a bad eleventh, although heavily
nacKea to win.
In spite of the war and its handi
caps, the Derby had more starters 20
than in any years since 1902. All
previous speculation about the outcome
was thrown into the discard when the
day opened with a heavy rain, which
continued almost until the horses
were sent to the post. The victory
for Haneil's stable was enhanced by
the capture of second place by his
j-anguara, riaaen by Jockey Janek.

Faye. Halllnan and Hannah Are Of

Let Go of Popular Rube.'
SAN FRANCISCO. July 19. (Special.)
Manager Cliff Blankenship. of the
Salt Lake team, tried in vain Sunday
night before he boarded a train for
home to put through a monster trade
with Manager Rowdy Elliott, of the
Oakland Club, that involved five play
ers. That the exchange of diamond
material did not materialize was due to
the fact that Blankenship tried to
secure the whole Oakland club, as Elli
ott explains it.
The Oakland skipper refuses to make
known the names of the players that
were discussed, for the reason that it
might breed dissension. It is reported.

pany probably will be called Charles
Frohman. Inc.
Although the names of the firms and
individuals making up this company
have not been fully revealed except
that Alf Hayman and I'anicl Frohman
as administrators of the estate will be
closely associated with it. it Is known
that some of the larce producing Arms
affiliated with Mr. Frohman an well as
several of his major stars. Including
Maude Adams, will have a hand In map
ping out the future policy of the busi
ness. A petition will he filed by Daniel
Frohman, brother of the late manager,
for the appointment of hrmself and Alf
Hayman as administrators of the es
tate. At the same time renunciations
will be filed by the other brother and
two sisters of Charles Frohman, waiv
ing their rights to administer. In favor
of Daniel Frohman and Alf Hayman.
Daniel Frohman will file a separate
affidavit setting forth that It was the
unanimous request of the next of kin
that Alf Hayman be associated with
him as administrator.
The announcement, outlining the new
policy to be pursued by the Frohman
interests, quieting numerous rumors
that have been flying about concerning
the future conduct of the business, was
of the greatest Interest in theatrical
circles.
The new company also will take over
all the Frohman Interests in London,
where Mr. Frohman was unusually act
ive for a strictly American producer.
Important announcements regarding
next season's plans under the new re
gime will be made In a few days. It was
said last night.
Some of these already have been
forecast, but there is much interest at
tached to the activities of several of
Mr. Frohman's principal stars. Includ
ing Maude Adams, John Drew and Will
iam Gillette.
The decision to handle the affairs by
the formation of a company followed
a recent trip of Alf Hayman to the
Frohman stars who are now playing in
the Pacific Coast states, and after sev
eral conferences had been held with
the business associates of Mr. Froh
man. MILLIONS NOT WANTED
Chauffeur Who tYcd Heiress Says
Rich Relatives Haven't Called.
TENAFLT. N. J.. July 15. There will
be no partition sale of the country home
here of the late George Coppell, known
as the Towers, aa was planned by
Arthur and Herbert Coppell and their
sisters following the announcement
last October of Miss Elizabeth H. Cop
lell that she had become the bride of
her former chauffeur, Robert Douglass
Connors.
The sale will not be necessary be
cause Mrs. Connors has sold her Inter
est in the big estate, and she and her
husband are now waiting for their new
$40,000 residence to be completed. Their
new home Is on the Palisades, and $10,-
000 has just been spent on a dam for
a miniature lake.
Connors bought out the Tenafly Auto
Service Company a few months ago.
He has half a dozen taxlcabs busy and
says his receipts, which were only $10
to $1$ a day the first few weeks, have
lumped to $100 a day.
"I have planned for a new garage to
cost $25,000," he said, "and In not
going to use any of the Coppell mil
lions to build it either. I want to prove
to my wife's brothers and sisters that

NEW YORK. July 19. (Special.)
"Jack Coombs has done more toward
developing the Brooklyn pitching- 8taff
than anybody else with the team. I
never saw a man take so much interest
or get as good results. I want to gle
him the credit fpr It."
So said Charles Ebbets. the bots of

Pitchers as Coombs
and Robinson, n o
wonder the Super- .
baa' staff is travel- :

of box work which
are essential In hie-
league success. Cfarlat lchen..a.
Coombs at once recognized this situ
ation and showed his earnestness by
goin to the park In the morning to
teach the boys the tricks or the trade.
Tricks of Game Are Taught.
Coombs, himself a master of the
box work, showed the youngsters how
to hold up base runners, how to cover
up the ball so that the batter would
not know what to expect, and the hun
dred other little knick-knacks of big
league twirling. As a result. Stobbie"
has the best staff In the league work
ing for him at just this time.
John Evers went from one of the
greatest machines In my time In base
ball, the Cubs, to a club which had been
located In the second division pretty
regularly, and it stepped out and won
a world's championship during his first
year with the Braves, and John took
down the big end of the money. It
would be strange if John Coombs, too.
after so many seasons of financial
success with Mr. Mack's Athletics,
should Join a second division prospect
and cut into the big coin the first year.
And Mr. Coombs has a chance a very
good chance.
lkre to Bn Overhauled.
There is another strange kink which
comes to my mind. "Eddie" Collins,
leaving the champion Athletics, may
bustle right Into another world's series
with the White Sox, a team that has
always been not quite strong enough
to do anything much since the time it
broke loose and won the world's cham
pionship In 190S, much to everyone's
surprise. Including the players.
Collins may be facing Coombs In the
first game of this world's series next
October, although I sincerely hope not.
I don't mind Collins being In It. except
he is a tough "bird" to pitch to. but. if
Coombs is there. It will mean the
Giants are not. That is the reason I
have been pitching so long. I guess. I
still think I've got something and the
notion helps me to get away with It.
Captain Huston intends to overhaul
the Yankees pretty generally by next
year on the advice of Bill Donovan, his
smiling manager.
"I am satisfied with what the boys
have done o far this year." Captain
Huston told me the other day. "but
Donovan wants to clean out some of
the old timber. Several of the players
have been with the team season after
season under different managers. Thev
have become discouraged and have for
gotten how to hustle. Donovan wants a
young team, and one he can teach. Of
course, we will keep our best players.
tor Instance, we would not think of
letting Caldwell go."
Promising Youngsters Snught.
Donovan has five or six scouts beat
ing the "sticks" now to drive out some
youngsters who have shown signs of
speed. Like McGraw. "Wild Bill" likes
the fast steppers, and he hopes to have
some recruits turned In to him who will
develop Into stars. Of course, that is
what ail managers hope, but Bill be
lieves he knows how to cut and polish
the rough baseball diamond.
I also want to correct an impression
about Caldwell while discussing the
Yankees. In some way the Imnression
sot loose last season that he was in
trouble with Chance because he failed
to keep In condition that lie broke
training rules and did not take rare of
himself, to be frank. This is not so.
Now. we come to consider the sad
case of George Stallings and the Boston
Braves. From what I gather around the
league, there is not ail the harmony on
the club which existed last season, and
tuts has hurt its speed.
SON TO BAPTIZE FAMILY
Mother and Father, Four Brothers
and Sister Are Converted.
MONETT. Mo.. July 16. Rev. V. T.
Smith, pastor of the Christian Church,
has gone to Morrill, Neb., to baptize
his mother and father, four brothers
and one sister.
He was ordained when 19. while the
family was living near Trenton, Mo.
His father and mother declined to hear
any of his sermons he preached at a
schnolhouse In the neighborhood, be
cause he had disobeyed their wlHhes In
becoming a preacher. The circum
stances of their convert-Ion were not
known to the aon when he left here.
ip Dollar. Down Pound.
Worcester (Mass.) Telegram.
The United States dollar Is to displace
the British pound in the world busi
ness. Possibly that may ring rather
loud for the start, but there are wide
chances for growth. The Federal Re
serve Board has lnsued regulations In
the matter of reserve banks redlscount
lng bankers' acceptances of foreign as
well as domestic trade drafts. And the
acceptances must be payable In dollars
In the United States. Heretofore that
kind of business has been practically
confined to state banks and trust com
panies. The new regulations are ex
pected to enlarge the business of the
American dollar In South America Im
mediately and In other countries as the
foreign trade spreads out. One of trie
expressions the report in print gath
ered from the Iteserve Board is: "Amer
ican banks will be materially aided In
taking away from London a share of
this business." That Is the war the dol.
lar is to displace the pound, it will no
longer be considered necessary to In
quire how the British bankers regard
the paper of commerce. Merchants
everywhere will ask rather how Amer
ican banks appraise their paper.

The action of S. S. S., the famous blood

natural that blood Impurities should
seek an outlet. Water, (cas. oil and
nearly all the active products of nature
seek the surface. It seems to be a cos
mic law. Even, our thoughts will un
dertake to find expression. And so what
ever we take into our system will even
tually come out changed in form, con
verted often into some other substance,
but constituting always either wast
or that which has served its useful pur
pose and must be eliminated. And tha
skin is the principal avenue for escape
of certain acids or poisons. If the skin
and blood be healthy, these wastes pass
off as vapor or perspiration. But Im
pure blood loads the skin with eczema,
pimples, acne, rheumatism, rash, fever
blisters, blood rlslna-s and other erup
tions. And S. S. S. has been found the
very best, safest and most effective
remedy to purify the blood and thus re
store the skin to clear and attractive
health. Get a bottle today of any drui;
