MICHAEL ON HIS METTLE.
STARBUCK EASILY BEATEN BY
THE WELSH RIDER AT MAN
HAITIAN BEACH.
BOTH IN PERFECT CONDITION.
Considerable Money Changed Hands
With the Odds Against the
American-Time in Detail.

NEW YORK, Aug. 21.-Jimmy Mich
ael, the Welsh bicycle rider, easily de-
feated J. Frank Starbuck, of Philadel-
phia, in a thirty-three-miler race at the
Manhattan beach track today. AL
though Michael had the poorer set Of
machines for pace-makinS, his pluck
and stamina stood him in good stead,
and he finished the contest in 66A min
utes. fully two miles ahead of his
American opponent. The attendance
was $4,000. Both men were in perfect
condition. A good deal of money
changed hands on the result, but the
admirers of the foreigner had to lay
odds on the candidate, and many bets
were made in favor of Michael at 100
to 80, and 100 to 70 on.
Each contestant had 32 pace-makers,
and in this respect Starbuck had the
call. Both went off from a standing
start and each picked up triplet pac-
ers. Starbuck got the pole, but in the
second lap Michael picked up SEX
tette and assumed the lead. At the
end Of the second mile the little
Welshman was hundred yards ahead
and at the end Of the third mile he
was four hundred yards ahead. From
this point to the end of the race Mich
ael held a very decided advantage.
Then for five or six miles both men al
ternated in the lead. although there
was a lap to MichaePs credit, but the
little fellow, when backed up by his
favorite quad or sextette, always had
enough in reserve to assert his SUI
periority over Starbuck, as he passed
him at will. The fifteenth mile was
run In the fastest time, 1 minute and
So seconds. The slowest mile was the
thirty-third and last, but this could be
easily accounted for through the face
that Michael was nearly seven laps
ahead and took things easy, covering
the last mile in PIP As. From the
fifteen-mile to the end of the race
Michael beat every standing record
previously established in contest
MichaePs wheel was geared to los,
and Starbuck's to &C.

four balls but Mullane famed with the
two on the sacks. Gillen threw out
Nichol, and Steinfeldt, gave Mullane
one. Davis hit to Holly, who lost the
ball, but ultimately caught his man
on a trial for second.
Steinfeldt and Delehanty had already
thrown Gillen and Isbell to the bench
when Spies drove a nice single into
right. 1t was too late, however, as
Hollingsworth struck out, and the
locals were still trailing. Detroit went
one, two, three again, Denzer being
as steady as day and night.
When it came to opening the eighth,
Roger varied his usual programme of
strike outs, and secured a base on balls,
with some trouble, Mike frost claim
ing 1t was robbery and things like that.
Mcbride singled through short and
Glenalvin sacrificed. Hahn threw to
Hines. There was no question about
Mcbride being out, but when Hines
threw to first, there was serious doubt
about Glenalvin being out, as Haskell
declared he was. Denzer, in the mix-up,
had necessarily reached third. and
great was the rejoicing when George
lifted single back of Delehanty for
tying run. Mullane sent a foul fly to
Steinfeldt
DUNCAN got his base again, but Dill
lard tried to sacrifice and Denzer threw
out the front man. Hines hit to Glen
alvin, and he also chose the one ahead
Nichol gave Glen a hard one, but he
made pretty stop and got Sammy at
the initial sack.

ninth. Gillen struck out, Isbell a fly

The tenth opened with Hollings-
worth's grounder to Steinfeldt, futile.
Denzer for the third time struck out.
Mcbride hit fly which dropped safe
in center field, but Glenalvin's ball
went high and DUNCAN caught it.
Hahn hit an easy one to Denzer, and
Delehanty one a little harder. Both
were fielded perfectly. DUNCAN was
thrown out by Glenalvin Not a hit
had been made off Roger since the
runs were made in the third inning.
George hit to center in the eleventh,
Nichol catching it. frost took Null
lanes foul and Gillen sent a high one

to Mcbride, but Hines put a good single
through center, and DenZer gave Nichol
base on balls, at least the umpire
said that was what it was. Steinfeldt
gave Isbell a fly and still the locals had
chance to pull out, but with two out
and two on bases. McCauley was sent
up in place of Davis, who had not been
batting we'll. and the home run hitter
of Friday became the winner of Satur-
day with a single that fell between Nc
Bride and George, after the former es-
peclally had made a hard run for it.

MILLERS MOVE UP.
Flour City Nine Sixth Now in the
Percentage Table.


The Millers took another fall out of
the Bobolinks yesterday, and since
Friday have stepned from eighth to
sixth place. Pauallau, with his Cleve-
land uniform, tried hard to fool Dog
gle Miller's men, but was unsuccessful
Fifteen times did the Millers find him
safely and the hits came in punches of
three and four. Phillippi pitched a
good game and in only two innings did
he allow more than one hit. Tacks
Parrot carried off the batting honors
with three singles and triple in four
times at bat. Tacks also brought in
four Of the Millers' runs and played a
sensational game at first.
In the second inning PARROTS single,
Deady's sacrifice and Roats out to
Slagel, scored one. In the third sin
giles by EuStice and Miller, and a wild
pitch added another. In their half of
the third the visitors scored two on
DriscolPs two-bagger, and errors by
Ball and Phillippi. Singles by Eus-
tace. Parrot and Deadly, and Roat's
lers in the fourth In the fifth Letch-
er's single, PARROTS sacrifice and Pa
pallau's error added one more. Dris-
coils double and Papallau's single

the seventh Griffin's error, singles by
Parrott, Deadly and Roat, and a wild
pitch gave the Millers another pair.
In the eighth gift to Eustace, Letch-

Deady's out brought in three more.

INDIANS FAR IN THE LEAD.
A Very Hot Fight for the Honor of
Second Place.

second PlQce.
The Western league contest has not
changed materially during the week
just ended. The Indianapolis team has
won every game except the one with
st. Paul on Sunday and ST. Paul has
won every game except that with De-
troit yesterday, and that was a stub
born contest of eleven innings. OF
course, there is not the slightest prob
ability that the Hoosiers will be head
ed. In a few days they reach home
again for a long series, and the chances
are largely in favor of their increasing
their lead. 1t is altogether likely, in
fact, that they will win at least 100 of
the 140 games. The st. Paul team is
playing a much better game than at
any other time during the season, and
it's work is for the first time satisfac-
tory to the public. This is shown in
the attendance, which has been in
creasing constantly all the week. By
next Sunday the team should be In
second place, as six of the next seven
games are with Grand Rapids, and all
of the series with the Bobolinks will
be played here. After losing five
straight games Columbus pulled itself
together yesterday and beat Milwau-
kee, thus getting a tenpoint hold on
second place. The fight for the honor
of contesting for the Free Press cup
is really about all there is left in the
contest, though Minneapolis, Kansas
City and Grand Rapids are having a
hot time exchanging last place. After
two games with Milwaukee and three
with Kansas City the Columbians go
home for a series Of fifteen games. The
Buckeyes were the. last to reach 100
games, having done that yesterday.
The record to date is as follows:

HONEST BUT sHREwD YANKEE.
How He Saves Money Breeding PouI-
try on the Mexican Border.

There is funny of international hon.
esty down in Arizona, just ON the line be-
tween that territory and Mexico, says the
Washington Times. A Yankee farmer lives
there, one Amasa Barrow by name, and it is
his business to raise chickens. Chicken feed
is cheap in Mexico, and chickens bring fine
prices in Arizona, but to raise fowls in Mex
leo and bring them across the boundary or
to buy the feed and bring it cross would
involve the payment of considerable duty,
which would eat the profits about as fast as
the hens could eat the corn. AS for snug
Cling that was not to be thought of.
Amasa is Yankee and he is so honest that
his neighbors say he wouldn't take advan-
tage of a man in horse trade. But he is
also full of Yankee ingenuity, and after deep
cogitation he built long, slim hencoop. one
half of it in Arizona and the other in Mexico.
On the line there is a gate. Over the line
there are barns containing feed. At feeding
time the gate is opened and the chicken fam
cier Shoes his flock into Mexico, where they
eat their meal. Then he Shoes them back to
the protection of the American flag where
they digest this Mexican grain, lay their
eggs and carry on their family affairs. Mr..
Barrow saves about so per cent on grain and
makes that much on his chickens, and if
there is any smuggling done it is done by the
innocent and irresponsible biddies.
