THE BALL PLAYERS

The national game is being neglected
in Los Angeles, and at the same time the
Angel City league as it is how composed
is able to put up some games as interest
ing to the average fan as any ever seen in
this city.
Every Sunday two games are played at
Athletic Park, and though it is seldom
that the second game is finished, on &C
count of lack OF time, both games are
pretty sure to be interesting ones. and one
of them at least is sure to be worth the
price OF admission.
The players are for the most part all
classed as amateurs, but among the nun.
Der are some men who have played on pro-
fessional diamonds in other days and who
are still able to put up good base ball.
Soaking about professionals, though, re-
minds the local fan that Los Angeles was
once great ball town and that most Of
the old players here are still in the bust
ness. During the coming season Good
Boy Jimmy Stafford will guard the sec.
ond bag in the New York team. Kid
Hulen will put in his second season with
MINNEAPOLIS. Knell, Borchers and
Midget Sweeney go to louisville. Glen.
alvin goes to indianapolis. 'Hunkey"
Hines and Treadway will be found with
BROOKLYN. Pete Lehman and "Rasty'
Wright will wear a Grand Rapids uniform.
Pop McCauley goes to Milwaukee. Pete
sweeney and "Pap" Lytle 60 to Scranton
while SBuck" Ebright will manage and
captain the Lincoln team in the Eastern
Association.

WITH THE DO0MEN

Many new fanciers are joining the
Southern California Kennel Club, making
it one Of the strongest in the state. Los
Angeles has always been a good show
town, and her dog men have never been
afraid of failure in their attempts to ad-
vance the kennel interests of their Sec
ton. The result is that for six consecu-
tive years this energetic club has held its
shows. 1t is true that not all of these
shows have.been financial successes, but
whether or not, as faithfully as have re-
turned the flowers of spring, just 50 faith
fully has been held the annual dog show;
stimulating the interest in our canine
friends, bringing new fanciers into the
fold and building up healthy sentiment
in the minds of the general public.
This year is to be no exception
to its predecessors, and from the
amount OF new and enthusiastic blood
that has been added to the club, to re-
inforce the old, experienced and no less
vigorous, that has steered the club through
open seas in the past, the coming show OF
history of dogdom in Southern Califor-
MIA.
The election OF DIR. J. Withers-for many
years the head of the Chicago Veterinary
College, and an experienced fancier-to
the most important position Of secretary,
augurs much toward its success, and is
of itself a guarantee OF careful and intelli-
gent management and most courteous
treatment. 1t is safe to say that there 8
not a man on the Pacific Coast that has
had the experience in kennel matters or
can bring to his aid such fund of knowl-
edge in show circles as can DIR. Withers

WITH THE HORSEMEN

1t is expected that the $4,000 in prizes
offered by the management of the running
meet to be held on this city during Fiesta
week will attract all the crackerjacks
from the north.
1t will be even better than the great
meet of world beating trotters seen here
last winter to have all the famous cracks
of the Bay district track running here for
a week. Los Angeles is just ripe for
such an event, the meet is assured good
crowds.

A student of fstana. who has been
delving into the pugilistic archives since
the recent ring fatalities at Syracuse, n.
Y, and at New Orleans, finds that in
pugilists have met their death in ring
fights. From 1888 to lS43 only nine fatal
tiles occurred in England under the Lon
don prize ring rules. and the only ones
that have occurred there in late years
were those of Dummy Mace's victim in
London recently and the killing of Jim
Hyland by Jem Carney some years ago.

J. In the seventy-sixth round Walker
