Lewis forced "Pep" at' second and then began a series of pilfers that had Gus Fisher in the air, and incidentally elevated the figures in the .'"S-B" average column following Juewis name. After Moran lofted to Bpeas, Jimmy filched second. On the fourth ball to Van Buren he nipped third. The young tyke and the old codger started a double steal.

Fight bugs are fairly marveling at the showing of the New Yorker, and from the talk at sporting headquarters. It seems to be the concensus of opinion that tha New Yorker would defeat Ritchie for the championship. Leach, with his brother Sam,, and trainer, Harry Lee. were anout town today accepting congratulattona on all sides, but more eager for the next prob able date for his services than anything else. The New Yorker is decorated with a handsome black aye, the left optic be ing badly swollen and discolored, but Leach Is parading this proudly in hon or of' the occasion and said if he had been a loser he would bend his head and take up an alleyway.

Wilding, World's Lawn Tennis Champion. London, July 6. The international lawn tennla matchea were inaugu rate when Dwight Davis of the United States offered the $1600 cup for competition among the nations. The rules governing the matchea are that four singles and one double match shall be played between the teams of the contesting nations. Either two, three or four men may be nominated to represent a nation. In the first event both players play in the singles and doubles. In any event the system works out admir ably, aa one man cannot win a Davis cup match off his bat, since the dou bles make the odd trick. America lost the Davis cup to Eng land in the days when the Brothers Doherty were In their prime. Since then the big rose bowl has traveled rather extenalvely in Australasia. Mr. Brookes and I managed to win the cup from England In ltOl, although we considered . that our toughest match was against Beals C. Wright and Karl Behr of America In ' the elimination round.
