WORTH HIS WEIGHT N COLD.
John M. Wards Estimate Of
Ex-senator Bill Joyce.
GOTHAM CRANKs DELIGHTED
Doings OF the Players and Managers
OF the Various Leagues-Pitcher
kneli Is Making a Great Record.
An Actor Makes q Comparison OF
Lnnge's Home Run.Hit.

John NJ. Ward says in the New York
Journal this morning." And as for .Scrappy
Bill, he is worth his weight In gold.
The nickname 'scrappy' may be mislead-
ing. New York rooters must not under
stand that Joyce is quarrelsome or walks
around with chip on his shoulder. He
Is hard-working, earnest player, who,
in consequence of his zeal, gets into
numerous arguments with the umpire and
opposing play ers, but actual fisucuffs
Is far;hest from his mind. Not that Bill
would not counter, aud counter hard, II
the occasion required, but no Que need
feel any alarm, when disputes arise, that
Bill means actual violence.
When he feels himsef especially ag-
grieyed by the umpire, for strike called
that was an inch or two higher or lower
than it shonld have been, his face assumes
apained, saddened, de ejectedexpressiont that
would melt heart OF ston c; but when he
whips" one over the heads OF the out
fielders at critical stage of the game he
could not Keep his face straight IL he tried.
And he has quite knack of hitting the
ball Just when hit Is needed.
Joyce is not a first class fielder at
third base, and it's better to say so now
than allow anyone to think he is and then
be disappointed He tries for everything,
is not afraid of any hit, does not hesitate
TO block base runner, even if he does
get taste OF the spikes; but he makes er-
rors, and TO patrons of the Polo Grounds,
who have seen the peerless work of George
Davis, he will be positively bad" at
times, but he more than makes up for it in
other ways. There is no more earnest play
er, none more conscientious and faithful.
When his team wins, no matter what his
own work has been, life looks bright and
rosy; but when it loses, Bill is a sick man.
He does not play for his own record, but
for the team. He is good-natured, warm
hearted, full of enthusiasm, but like all
such natures, very susceptible to unkind
criticism. All In an, lie is a winner in any
team.

GOSSIP OF THE WHEELMEN

John 8. johnson, the American cyelist,
who has been abroad for the past four
months, arrived in New York on Satur-
day, accompanied by j. w Parsons, the
Australian champion, who, on two occa-
sions, beat Zimmerman during the latter's
trip to Australia. II is the intention OF
both men 10 follow- the national circuit,
and it is probable that both will at once

he is simply record rider, for during the
time he was abroad he won only one race.

The preliminary arrangements for the
Louisville meet have been conducted in an
unprecedcntedly systematic and business

probability be the largest in the history
OF the League Any member attending
is pretty sure of having fine time, for
the wheelmen Of that city have in the past
shown themselves 10 be ideal entertainers.
The bicycle is being put to uses never
dreamed of by the inventor, the latest being
a cure for Iove-lorn maidens. An English
clergyman was being bored TO death by
feminine members of his flock who had
fallen desperately in love and wanted to con-
fide their hopes and SORROWS to him. One
particularly aggravated case caused him to
lose his patience, and he advised the fair
maiden to get bicycle and to take long
ride every day and she would think no moro

ABOUT SATURDAYS GAME.
Comment on the Senator's Playing
and NOTES. of the Contest

dnu NOttS VI ttle contest.
In its story of Saturdays game between
the Senators and Orioles, yesterdays Bal
timore American said in part:
Playing with Washington was a mere
jest was so easy. Those bold, brave
Senators, who Friday strobe about their
own diamond and blamed their defeat on
Hoffer, had wilted. A summer shirt
front struck on a hot day never under
went greater transformation in the
quality that sticks than did the visitors.
Friday they blamed Hoffer, the umpire
with their defeat Today they may do
the same and give a much better reason.
There is no doubt that Hoffer. the pitcher,
threw them down hard. The Wagnerians
lost their backbone. There may have been
several reasons for it. That great
chunk of their ability TO fight up hill has
disappeared with Scrappy Bill Joyce there
can be no doubt now Had Scrappy Bill
been in the hunt and gingered up the
Tagging spirits of the opposition there
might have BEEN more of a contest than
there was yesterday. But with nine
Scrappy Bills OH the other side there
would have been much the same story with
Hoffer in yesterdays form. A pitcher
who can allow two clean singles to open
an inning, placing fleet runner on third,
and then nonchalantly strike out the next
three batsnen, who happened to be three
of the best on the card, such a pitcher
cannot be beaten when backed up by the
Champions.
The American appended the following
notes:
Joyce was not in sight.
They'll miss Joyce in Washington.
Team leaves on the 1850 noon train
Monday.
Brown is now captain of the Senators.
McGraw will be at the games right along.
DeMont's error was a tumble of ReitZ's
drive in the second.
Hoffer's eagerness for a double in the
second caused him to tumble, and both
were safe.
Hoffer's carelessness on second in the
fourth cost a run. He was neatly caught
Oft by Mercer and O'Brien.' Kelley's fol-
lowing hit would have scored him.
Charlie Farrell joined the Washington
team here yesterday. Charlie says he
would as leave play in Washington as in
New York under present conditions.
Selbach made q mighty throw-in of Jen-
nIngs' hit in the fourth to catch Kelley
at the plate. He had too much steam
behind the ball, and it sailed over Nc
CURES head, Keeler scoring, and Jen.

To All the People OF the State of Utah:
If you want good and honest govern
ment, you must select good and honest
men and women TO make and administer
the laws of government; and to success
fully accomplish that you must commence
at the foundation-the primaries.
Every voter, male and female, through
out the whole state of Utah should meet
in their respective precincts day or Two
before the primaries are held and select
such men and women as you can vote for
in the primaries to honestly represent
you at the conventions where officers are
nominated to be voted for at the coming
election.
If you do not do that, others will, and
the people will have 70 endure in the
future what they have in the past-.n-
and wasteful administration,
and unjust discrimination.
When the honest are in authority, the
people rejoice and when the unjust rule
the people mourn. Respectfully

PRECINCT PRIMARIES.

Precinct primaries for the purpose of
electing delegates to the county Demo-
cratic convention and a precinct com
mittee of three in each precinct will be
held in each of the lightweight election
precincts on Tuesday evening, September
10, at o'clock.
The apportionment of delegates will
be five delegates for each new polling
precinct as created by the county COM
missioners
Democrats are urged to ascertain as
soon as possible the precinct they reside
in, under the new subdivision, and ar
range for places of meeting. Chairmen
and committees of the old precinct or
work of reorganization.
The apportionment of delegates is made
uniform for the reason that no means
are at hand to enable the committee to
determine the party voting strength in the
new subdivisions, and for the further
reason that the woman vote enters into
the question this year, as also the proba BILE
acquisition of voters who have heretofore
been classed with other political parties
but who in the coming campaign may
choose to align themselves with the Dem
ocrats, at least on the question of presi-
dental electors
All the electors who support William j.
Bryan for president are invited to parti-
cipate in the primaries.
