GRAHAM REALLY OUT OF BASEBALL
' BacramentoT-"Dec r 2 Charlie Graham, who last year was manager of
the Sapramento team In the -Pacific coast league, will not be the manager
next season, it wu officially announced today. Graham will retire from
the diamond and will go Into business for himself. Patsy WRourke, former
captain of the Albanjr, N. Y. club, Is Slated to succeed Graham as leader of
th Sacramento team. Graham said he probably would 'retain his stock in
the Sacramento club, but would not again be seen, in uniform. ' Graham has
been Identified with coast league baseball for the last tlx years. Graham
has announced his retirement , several times but this, he asserts, Is a go.
Philadelphia.- - Pec. , 51. Few of . the
fans outside Of Philadelphia Know that
P.ddie Collins It not only an Kvana In
sreondbasing. but In Jawing and yelping
at the other performers., ,;'
The Impression seems o prevail that
Collins Is a brilliant ball player, but a
silent one. Far be it from such. Eddie
' Is one of the noisiest ball players that
there is.. His 'face Is always open and
scfme of these days he will inhale a
proundflr If be" lffn't careful. '
"(Jet a wiggle theret For the love of
Mike, do you think you're playing check
ers? Aw. say. If I had 4-year-old baby
and he couldn't stop that one I'd dis
own him! " What! Call that base run-nlngT-
Tou look like a goat tied to a
)ost! Say, look at him now; didn't
slide, and caught standing up! Hate to
sr.ii that nice white ' uniform,: huh?
C.'wan. now, tell it to Sweeney, you big
itorv head." ' 'r - ' - ''- '' - -'' -' ' -
Thus doth Mr. Cblllns keep things
stirred up vocally throughout a game,
end the effect upon the Athletics is the
psme as Is produced by John Evers"' dia
tribes when he upbraids the Cubs.v And
maybe the Cubs didn't miss that flow
c-f language In the big series!' ' -
Zimmerman is no howler. He went
two weeks once without saying anything
' except, "Plense pass the salt," and what
pood Is that sort of . oratory, for a
world's championship?. .

Fear Bringing; Olympic Games

Paris, Dec. II. Tremendous opposi
tion will be made to the holding of the
Olympic games at Cleveland Ohio, in
1918, by fcngand and, the countries of
the continent, according to the Excel
sior, a parts sporting publication, to
day; The objection, the, paper say", is
not to Cleveland, but, to America.
The announcement in Paris that the
American Athletic union had indorsed
Cleveland and referred it to the interna
tional committee has created a sensa
tion in Paris and generally In French
athletic circles. Frenchmen see In it a
foreboding of failure for the next Olym
piad. ! ' ' j - ' ':
nnnonitlon to the games being held
in the United States Is said to have de
veloped more fromr the extra cost for
eastern hemisphere men to attend than
from any ' particular'; discrimination
against . Americans. Should the games
be held at Cleveland only, the more
wealthy European athletes could afford
to make the trip, the Excelsior says, v
Should the tames be held in Austria,
Itslv. Russia or Germany, wnicmcoun
tries are striving W secure the contests
for this side of the Atlantic, the Olym
nlad would be- attended by the usual
number of athletes and would be more
nearly what is was originally intended
to bea contest of all nations accord-

football' champions, who are preparing
for their championship game. with Oak
Parts High school of Chicago here De
cember at, have changed their plans
somewhat with regard to practice. In
stead of going to the Vaughn street
ground the Washington High lads will
train for the rest of the week at the
grounds at East Twelfth and Davis
streets, at 2:30 o'clock each afternoon.
Next week they will shift to the Vaughn
Street , grounds fpr the v finishing up
practice. , v. '''' .'.-.'V-A '
, Earl haa begun to -teach his men all
the football he knows. He realizes that
the Chlcagoans are a. fast and brainy
bunch. They would have to be good to
clean up all the other Chicago schools in
the easy manner they did. , v
,. Earl ia going in to balance his eleven
in all departments. He doesn't want
the ends to shine, more brilliantly than
the tackles, guards or - halves, - i He
doesn't want the ; quarterback to ! play
more sensationally than the fullback or
the center. He wants the whole eleven
to play tbe same steady, fast brainy
game from open to .close. He figures
that this plan will make his men the
western champions. ; ,V'V' ;':.'.'.
Tickets for the big game . are going
rapidly and It looks as if the grandstand
will be sold out before the teams leave
for the field a week from next Satur

body of Perry had been found In his
home several days after the killing. The
only known cloa against t Ellexson' ia
that he had been workuig for Perry
during the summer, bat went to Baker
to work, and had left there on th same
day that Pferry -'was supposed to have
been Kiued. He was arrested at Echo,

GaJiagan, a well known Indianapolis
turf writer has this to 3ay ateut Dick.
une 01 the leading buyers at the re-
oent New York sale was Dick Wilson.
lorraeny a resident of Rushvllle, Ind..
who transferred the scene of Jjis oper
ation to the far northwest A year ago,
locating In Portland. Oregon, and racing
a stable at the Paclfio coast tracks'the
past season. Wilson interested a young
millionaire named McCann .from Hood
River, Oregon, in the harness horses,
bold him the well known . sire,.. The
Patchen Boy, which Wilson took west
with. him. and It was for MoCann that
he bought the famous sire. The Bonds
man and other high-priced ones at the
Garden sale. He did not stop with bis
New yorn purchase, but visited Lextne
ion, js.y., and purchased four more. ' one
by The Bondsman, and the eight headi
wnicn cost approximately 122,000, were
shipped to Pleaanton(: Cat., a tv days
ago, Wilson deciding to winter at thti
famous California training track.

This is the filly which ' fell
with "Pop" Geera at Grand Rapids last
summer, injuring the veteran driver
td such - an xtent - that , he could t not
take his place In 1 the sulky for- over
two - weeks. " Oriena was afterward
raced by -Ed Benyon and : displayed a
lot of speed, bnt her manners were not
of the best,, ehe berng inclined to make
breaks when she got f into ft scramble
Where sulky wheels clashed ' and ' the
whips were cracking.;"' Wilson believes
that her experience this seasor. will do
her a lot of good, and that she will be
a successful race mare for him another
year, i She la a full sister to the stal
lion Orlean, who took a record of 2:09
in a race at Columbus last September,
both being by Ormonde, out of Helena,
by Electioneer. , (
''For years Wilson has been in the
front rank of American relnsmen. He
trained and raced such horses as Bumps,
John Taylor, an M. and-M. winner; An.
nlo Burns, a heat winner In that event;
Aileen Wileon, one of 'the fastest and
gamest pacing mares which ever turned
for the money, and who holds the
world's record for a fifth heat and also
the pacing wagon record for mares;
HedgewoOd Boy, Lady Maud C. and
dozens of other fast one. . With the last
named pair, full brother and sister, he
set the world'a record for teams' at

races with both of them, particularly
with Lady Maud C.
-'" Confident of Winning." "
' "'I have raced, all kinds - of ; horses
for a' good many years." said Wilson
in talking of this great pair of pacers,
"but I never felt so confident of win
ning a race as I did Of the $3000 event
for; free-for-all pacere at the Detroit
meeting of 1909, 1 in which I started

HUGO KELLY EARNS RIGHT J0 TITLE
Boston. Dec. 21. Hugo Kelly will claim . the title of middleweight cham
pion of the world. Ho bases his claim not so much on Stanley Ketchel's
statement shortly before his death that he intended to retire In favor of
Kelly, as on his showing against Frank Klaus in their bout here last night.
Kelly Bald todav he will fight anybody that can make the middleweight
limit. Boston .funs agree that Kelly has improved wonderfully. Those-who
saw the fight last night say that Kelly was all over his opponent and beat
him all' the way. The fight was. voted the fastest 12 rounds seen here In
a long time. . I v
I warmed her up for the race that it
would take a mile around 1:00 toi stop
her. The old Illinois mare Citation
was almost an even bet against her
In the a'uctlons. A well known horse
man who bets a lot of money came to
me and asked what I thought. I told
hlm( I would win; that: there wasn't a
pacer living that could head Lady Maud
C. that day. He evidently got additional

was not all out at -that. I'll never for

Remember that when your kidneys
are affected, your life is in danger. M.
Mayer, Rochester, N. T.. says: "Foley
Kidney Pills are a wonderful discovery
and I heartily recommend their use.
My trouble started with a sharp shoot
ing pain over my back which grew
worse each 'day. I felt sluggish and
tired, my kidney action waa irregular
and infrequent with a fine sand-like
substance. . While the disease was at
its worst I started using Foley Kidney
Pills. Their prompt and efficient ac
tion was marvelous. Each dose seemed
to put new life and strength into me,
ana now I am completely cured and feel
better and stronger than for years."
