Charles W. Murphy Tells of
Cold Appreciation.
GAME FAILS TO THRILL
Neither Slide to Base Xor Zero Bat
tle Have Any Errect Upon
Sporting Blood.
CHICAGO, July 2. (Special.)
When Charles XV. Murphy was presi
dent of the Chicago Cubs it was his
rare good fortune to place in several
world series, .and he recalls one of
them staged with the Detroit Tigers,
where he gave up a part of his per
sonal box to Senator Clark.
"It was the morning of one of the
games at Detroit when a friend ap
proached me and asked if it was pos
sible to get hold of a couple of seats."
said Murphy. "Of course, there was
nothing doing, because every game
was a complete sell-out, and a per
son couldn't get hold of two seats for
love or money.
"My friend then told me Senator
Clark had had a couple of titled ac
quaintances from England drop in on
him suddenly, and that they were
very anxious to see an American
world series battle.
" 'If that Is the case, I'll give up a
part of my personal box to the sena
tor,' I replied, and handed the cou
pons to my friend.
"I also tipped off another friend,
who was to sit alongside of the Eng
lishmen, to keep watch and see if
they were the genuine article or not.
"It came along toward the end of
the game. Ty Cobb, after reaching
first base, made a wonderful slide to
second, his leap being, apparently, 30
leet.
"The whole multitude leaped to its
feet, yelling and shouting hoarse ap
proval. It had been a. spectacular
feat, no question about that.
"One of the monocled, long-mus-tache-d
Englishmen, after a suitable
grave pause, turned to his fellow and
drawled, 'You know, you know, you
know, I really eawn't see anything
remawkable about that, you know,
old chap. That person couldn't have
gotten than if he hadn't sat down,
you know.'
"As soon as I heard this, I knew
they were on the level."
Another time, according to Mr.
Murphy, a party of titled Britishers
were visiting Chicago and stopping
at the Congress hotel. One of them
excused himself frOm the automobile
ride over the boulevards and took in
a game at the old West Side ball
park. He was a famous cricketer,
polo player, and had rowed on the
Cambridge boat during his under
graduate days.
In other words, he was a typical
English sportsman, and an earl to
boot..
He stuck out seven innings, get
ting more bored every moment. The
Cubs had scored a run in the opening
inning, but during all the remaining
rounds the scorekeeper kept posting
zero after zero on the board.
The earl was waiting in the lobby
when the remainder of the party
came in from their jaunt. He met
them at the clerk's desk, and as they
waited for their keys, said: D'ye
know, I had a stunning treat today,
ah. ah. a stunning treat. 1 saw a real
game of American baseball, bah jove,
ah, ah, a real game, you know. Ah,
ah, ah, it's a modified game of our
own rounders, our own rounders like
we used to'play when we were young
toppers, you know, you know."
At this moment the room clerk
gave the earl a prod on the back, and
he turned in amazement, eyeing the
young chap through his monocle with
a blank stare.
"Beg your pardon, sir. but what
was the score when you left?" In
quired the clerk, smilingly.
"Ah, ah, a million or so to some
thing or other." replied the earl.
As we glanced through the pages
of the national commission's final re
port,' we came across the name of
Player Cole, belonging to the Detroit
club. Instinctively, we tiought back
to the days of Pitcher Chalmers of
the Phillies, Pitchers Packard and
Pierce of the old Cubs and others,
and the thought struck us that quite
a salon could be made out of ball
players who bear the names of auto
mobiles. The following nine players appear
In the ex-commission's report:'
Cole. Detroit.
Cunningham, Detroit,
llaynes. Cardinals.
Ford. Braves.
Knight, released to Little Rock by
the Braves., now with Oakland.
Monroe. Giants.
Mitchell, Dodgers.
King. Giants.
White, released to Waterbury by
the Giants.
ALLS BATTED IXTO BAY
Loss Warrants Erection of Rig AVire
Miiik Around Alcatraz Diamond.
SAN FRANCISCO. July 2. Uncle
Sam has paid more than $100 during
the last three months for baseballs
batted into the waters of San Fran
cisco bay by soldiers and prisoners
playing at the United States army
disciplinary barracks on Alcatraz is
land, near here, according to Colonel
Osmun Latrobe, education and recre
ation chief for the Sth corps area of
the army.
To prevent loss of baseballs in the
future the colonel recently ordered
the soldiers to erect a big wire mesh
barricade around the Alcatraz dia
mond. The only section of the little rocky
island on which baseball can be
played is so close to the water that a
good hit, it is said, can be caught only
by a fielder in a boat. For a time
recently the average of lost balls was
seven to a game.

RABBIT MARAXVILLE.
For many seasons there has been a gap in the infield of the
Pittsburg team, to which the poor showing of the Pirates was
blamed. Last fail the Boston Nationals traded Rabbit Maranville
to the Smoketown nine for Southworth and Nicholson.
Placed at shortstop, the pride of Holyoke has so ably filled his
position and tightened up the Pirates' defense that they have been
playing real championship ball and are conceded a good chance for
the pennant.
The diminutive Maranville has another valuable quality as a
comedian he is second only to Nick Altrock.

STADIUM WORK IN PROGRESS
Stanford to Have Playing Turf
Ready for Rig November Game.
STANFORD UNIVERSITY, Cal., July
2. Grass will be planted on the play
ing field of the Stanford stadium,
now being built here, as soon as
steam shovels have excavated to a
level of 23 feet below the surface.
Already the workmen are down more
tha 12 feet.
By planting the grass early It is
believed the playing turf will be ready
for the football "big game", between
Stanford and the University of Cali
fornia next November when the sta
dium will be dedicated.
As the earth is taken out of the
big pit, it is banked on the sides
where the seats will be built. On the
outside of the embankment there
will be planted flowers and shrubs
which bloom in the fall during the
football season.
BALL LEAGUE.
BILLIARD CHUMP SAILS
HOREMANS DECLARES HE
WILL BECOME U. S. CITIZEN.
America Most Wonderful Country
In World, Says Belgian;
Lands Nation's Rule.
NEW YORK. July 2. Edouard
Horemans, the Belgian champion bil
liardist of Europe, sailed from this
city last week on the Red Star liner
Lapland for his home in Antwerp
to visit his mother and sister. He
plans to come back to the United
States early In September, and it is
is intention to make this country his
permanent home if he can persuade
his mother and sister to accompany
him. In making out his income-tax
report before sailing, Hortmant
classified himself as a resident .lien,
indicating that he claims America as
his residence.
Just 'before going aboari the Lap
land Horemans said: "I will come
back in September- prepare- for any
thing that may come in the way of
billiards. I hope then to realize my
ambition and get a matoh with Willie
Hoppe for the world's champiousiiip.
I will be ready to play any and all
who care to meet me.
"I wish that you would say for ine
that I think America is the must
wonderful country in the world.
Even though I have traveled nearly
all over it I cannot begin to realize
its great size. Its big cities, wonder
ful rivers, lofty mountains and big
trees on the Pacific coast are mar
velous. One must see them to appre
ciate them. When I recently jour
neyed from San Diego to Seattle, a
trip of four days and three nights, I
could not believe when we arrived in
Seattle that we were no nearer New
York than when we started. When I
come back I hope to make this my
permanent home. I have grown very
fond of this country.
"The people here have treated me
with the greatest cordiality and hos
pitality. They are great sportsmen.
They appreciate ability even though
it be shown by a stranger to their
shores. I do not believe there are
any better sportsmen to be found
anywhere in the world. When 1 first
left Belgium to come here I had no
idea of what a truly wonderful coun
try I was coming to. I had heard
a great deal about it. but all the de
scriptions that had been furnished me
did not begin to do it justice. I
thought that I had seen most of it
when I was traveling around in the
east and as far west as Cleveland and
Chicago. You can imagine my sur
prise when I went as far as California
and the state of Washington.
"When I came here I wanted to
prove to the people of this country
that I was worthy of a match with
Mr. Hoppe. I wanted to convince the
billiard public that I would play the
balkline game. For this reason I
was anxious to meet the best profes
sional players in matches. I played
all who would meet me. and I hope
that I succeeded in proving my right
to play Mr. Hoppe. I feel that I have
succeeded in this, and think that
when I return in the fall that Mr.
Hoppe will agree to play me; at least
I hope so."

STATE FAIR SPEED
CARD IS COMPLETE
New Records Are Proposed
on Lone Oak Track.
LARGE PURSES AT STAKE
Horses Arrive in Salem for Train
' lng Preparatory to Ore
gon's Big Event.
SALEM. Or., July 2. (Special.)
Racing history will be made on Lone
Oak track during the coming state
fair, if predictions of veterans of the
turf materialize. This opinion is
based on the number of blue-ribbon-ers
already entered; on the large
number of owners of high-class
horses who have signified their inten
tion of bringing their animals to
alem, and by the unexcelled condi
tion of the track.
Entries for the 2:20 trot, 2:24 trot,
2:18 pace and the 2:24 pace closed
Tuesday, June 28. with a margin of
another 24 hours for the Canadian
horses whose entries came by mail.
Purses for these four races are for
$800 each. The latest closing will be
August 1. which will reveal the
names of some of the finest horses of
the west and northwest, which will
compete for the highest stakes of the
week of the state fair, from Septem
ber 26 to October 1.
California Honn Entered.
In the later class will be the strings
of Rutherford and Tryon, both of
California, who have become known
to Oregonians through their previous
entries. The best horses will be en
tered tor the two purses of $2000
and the two for $1000.
Horses already in Salem for the
annual event are now being given
regular work-outs, activities of train
ers up to this time being restricted
to "jogging" their animals. Among
the horses preparing for the fall
races are the string of Merrill Bros,
of Cornelius. Or.; string of G. A.
Mills, Portland; horses of A. E.
Hardin, Glenwood, Wash., who en
tered his string on an eastern circuit
last year; A. H. Lea's Valentine Jr.
and Woodcock's Hal Paxton Jr.
Track Is Plowed.
Preparatory to the fall races and
the previous several months' work
outs the track was plowed early in
the spring, followed by constant
working and rolling. As a result,
state fair officials contend that the
track will compare with any other
on the coast, or for that matter, in
the whole country. Improving its
appearance is a new white fence that
completely circles the inner side,
with a high woven-wire fence bor
dering the outer side from the grand
stand to the track's northern ex
tremity. Both horseman and the race-loving
public welcome the announcement
that XV. P. McNair of Douglas. Ariz.,
for the past seven years, baring last
year, official starter at the Oregon
state fair, is to again preside in
that capacity.
Show Plan Tentative.
Plans for the night horse show
are only tentative as yet. Follow
ing the resignation of J. D. Farrell
from the state fair board early last
spring. H. C. Brown of Portland,
secretary of the North Pacific Racing
association and editor of the Western
Breeders' Journal, was named to take
his place, and to him, therefore, will
fall the superintendency of the horse
show, work which was undertaken
with so much success by Mr. Farrell.
It is understood that the assistannn
of the latter was sojicited for this
jear, dui mat nis trip to jiurope pre
vented him from accepting. It is
thought that most of those who ex
hibited mounts last year will be rep
resented again this season, and to
interest some of the owners of larger
stables in California, Secretary Lea
contemplates a trip south during the
coming month.
Auto Events Planned.
The last day's racing programme
will be shortened to allow for auto
speed events, plans for which are
still indefinite. The racing programme
as already scheduled, which, of
course, is subject to change in its
arrangement, is as follows:
Monday, Sept. 28 2:10 pace (added
money) three heats. $i00.

FELIDA BOYS BEAT BENEDICTS
Married Men Cross Bats With
School Youth and Are Worsted.
VANCOUVER, Wash., July 2. (Spe
cial.) The boys of Felida school and
the married men there, celebrated the
closing of school by playing a game
of baseball after exercises in the
school.
Gilbert Scott was pitcher for the
boys while Roger Beall attempted to
defeat him for the heads of families.
When the final score was counted,
it was found that the younger gen
eration was more efficient in hitting
balls, running bases and making
scores. The married men claim they
had not played together for a long
time and had not had time to prac
tice while the lads have had ample
opportunity. Anyway, the game fur
nished much amusement for the
spectators.

CHICAGO. July 2. The Waseda

t i!."h quadrennial American tour.
-nicago with a percentage of

In the hit column, the Japanese out

Baseball, as played by Americans, is
exactly the same as played in Japan,
but the teams are. as a whole, much
faster, according to M. Nakamura.
graduate manager and scorekeeper
or the waseda nine.
Ana your western teams are
stronger than the eastern ones," he
added. "Illinois has a. much stronger
team than Harvard or Yale. I think.
When the Japanese team completes
its second trip through the eastern
states, the men will return to Seattle,
where they will be the guests of the
University of Washington for ten
days before sailing for Japan, July
14. This is the first trip abroad for
the present team, although Waseda
has previously sent three teams to
America, paying a return visit the
year following the University of Chi
cago's Japanese tour every four
years.
The team i accompanied by Pro
fessor I. Abe. known as the "Father
of Japanese Baseball," who is dean
of the department of political science
at Waseda, and li. B. Benninghoff,
an American and professor of polit
ical science, who is acting as busi
ness manager.
Pitchers Pnzxle Little Itnbe Rath.
American college pitchers have
proved too much for K. Tanaka, cen
ter fielders on the Waseda team. In
the Tokio college league, Tanaka is
Known as the Babe Ruth of the
league. He holds a record of six
home runs in six games during last
winter's season in Japan, but thus
far he has failed to solve the Amer
ican puzzlers for a circuit clout.
G. Taniguchi, the Japs' star left
nander, has been likewise unable to
duplicate his' record made in Tokio
auring his American trip. Last win
ter he pitched two no-hit, no-run
games, but thus far every American
team has scored on him. His ef
Jectiveness is due mainly to a swift
drop, with which he has often retired
his opponents with three strike-outs
in a row. Taniguchi is 20 years old
and a freshman.
Wasedo has two good right-handers
in S. Matsumoto and F. Arita. In
the last of the three-game series with
the University of Chicago, Arita re
placed Taniguchi in the seventh in
ning with the bases full and two out.
He struck out the next man up, but
when Chicago filled the sacks again
in the eighth, a single drove in two
runs and lost the game and the series
for the Nipponese.
Matsumoto is a short little fellow,
quite in contrast to J. Kuji, the
catcher, who is probably the tallest
man on the team. In practice Mat
sumoto has to pitch uphill to his
lanky receiver, but when Kuji
crouches behind the plate, he picks
.off the speediest balls and unwinds
himself in ample time to whip them
over to second.
Captain S. Takamatsu. the left
handed first baseman, is a lively
player and eastern baseball men told
him he was worth a substitute's berth
in major league ball, according to
H. S. Benninghoff, an American pro
fessor of political science at Waseda,
who is acting as business manager of
the American tour.
T. Kato and T. Oshito cover left
pnd right field, respectively; N. To
monaga plays second and T. Kubbta
scoops up the ball in lively American
fashion at short. The third baseman.
J. Ishil, is one of the best all-around
men on the team. J. Nagano is the
reserve catcher.
Coach Tobita T'sea English.
When Coach Tobita runs over to
the third base coaching lines as his
Nipponese ball players come to bat,
he doesn't let loose a flow of Japa
nese, but yells instructions in the
native language of the great Amer
ican game. All of his players, who
are now touring the country, speak
English in some degree and all of
them use American baseball parlance
on the diamond.

The good tobacco taste

of this class of tobacco lasts
much longer than a big chew
of the old kind. That's why
it costs less to use.

Ouf and 'Strike' in English." Coach
Tobita said here recently, wnen hia i
nine played the University of Chicago
.1 three-game series. "Of course all
students in high schools and univer
sities in Japan are taught English,
but out in the fields where the small
toys play ball, they use the English
ttrms. Baseball is the Japanese na
tional game, too."
Coach Tobita. who is 35 vtari old.
has been playing ball for more than
15 years and has been a professional .
coach for two years. He was a starT,,
at Waseda, which is located at Tokio.
and captain of the team in 1909-10.
His early diamond training was under
nerDert H. Hunter, a former New
York Giant, who had a large cart in
the development of baseball at Wa
seda. Baseball, however, has been.
played in Japan for 40 years. Coach- t
Tobita said.
"The Japanese have two seasons of
ball." Coach Tobita said, in explaining
tneir enthusiasm for the game. "We
have. a spring and autumn schedule.
each lasting about two months. In
Tokio we have a league of four uni
versities and play a regular schedule.
Waseda has about 10.000 students
but comparatively few of them take
part in athletics. Coach Tobita said.
Members of the team expressed
great admiration for the American
universities, especially the large gym-.
rasiums which Japanese universities
do not yet have.
Japanese Never Show Anger.
The Japanese seem to have a dif-
ferent psychological slant on base
ball than the Americans. The whole
team plays with constant smiles .
wreathing their countenances and a
mistake means only an excuse for''
another display of pearly teeth. They,
are an alert lot of ballplayers, never--still,
and always eager to get at the
ball. There is none of the serious r
expression or the half-angrv , look
which is seen on the faces of most . r
American ballplayers in the middle of - -a
hot game.
Real pleasure in playing the game
crops out all over the Jap team. So
eager are they to "Get Into the game"
that twice during the last game with
Chicago players collided in the field
zn their scramble after the ball. Each
time they came up smiling and took
the mistake good-naturedly.
The Waseda players say they have.
enjoyed their visit immensely. This ,
is the first visit to A'merica for this ...
year's team, many of them being
treshmen. Practically all of the men .,
are merchants' sons and all are tak
ing commercial or political courses. '
"We like your big universities and
especially the gymnasiums," M. Naka-;,
mura, scorer and graduate manager,
said. "We do not have such big
gymnasiums, although we have all"'
kinds of athletics, such as football,
baseball, track and field meets, boat-
ing and tennis."
The team w'll sail for Japan July -14,
after a two months and a half tour
