SPORTS OF THE DAY
Clearwater Challenged for the Pool
Championship.
FIFZSIMMONS SIGNS TO FIGHT MAHER
Meeting Of the Eastern Base Ball
League.
EXCITING CONTEST LIKELY
CLEARWATER CHALLENGED.
Keogh Lost His Nerve and the Pool
Championship.

Championship.
Fred. Tallman of Rochester, N. Y, has
challenged w. H. Clearwater of Ravenna,
Ohio, to play him match game of pool
for the championship of the world. A purse
of $3.50 has been made up. When Clearwater
won the championship at Syracuse Saturday
it was announced that he would meet chal-
lengers for wager of $1,000 a side.
The chance to win the pool championship
of the world was lost by Keogh through a
miscue, says the Syracuse Standard. Only
needing three balls, and these spread all
over the table where a novice might easily
get them, Keogh's nerves went back on him,
and the boy who played one of the most
daring and brilliant games ever recorded
jumped his cue ball and lost the last hope
of obtaining the worlds honors at pool.
Clearwater was Immediately pronounced
the champion of the world, though he had
given up the fight and had put up his cue.
The widest excitement ran through the
large crowd which watched the game that
meant the championship for Clearwater.
Clearwater led at the opening of the series
and when he stood with l04 balls keogh was
10 behind. Four times keogh, the Bingham
ton wonder, went into the bunch for COM
binations that seemed almos. impossible,
and when he stepped back after making
each successful shot the crowd was frantic.
Great beads of perspir alton stood out on
ClearWaters forehead, while keogh was ap-
parently cool as a cucumber. Then came
the last frame. keogh wanted nine balls.
Clearwater wanted five.
Clearwater broke the pyramid and left a
difficult long shot for keogh. keogh ran
six balls, every one of them hard, and fell
down on a cut shot to the corner that broke
the bunch. Clearwater took couple of easy
ores and was in a position to win at that
moment. But he failed and left the balls
scattered all over the table. A wild yell
went up from the crowd. Hats were waved
in the air and pandemonum reigned for a
minute. Three of the softest kind Of shots
lay exposed. De Orc was delighted. Keogh
carefully studied a ball straight for the
side pocket, but his cue bail jumped clean
over it. Then Clearwater stepped to the
front and won.

Undoubtedly the low price of wheat

its use by others who hitherto have
