THoRNToN'S GREAT VICTORY.
He Shuts Out the Trolley Dodgers
without a Hit.

Chicago, Aug. 12.-Twelve thousand per-
sons left the ball park today completely
tired out from cheering the Orphans and
Brooklyns in one of the grandest strug-
giles ever witnessed on the diamond.
1t was the second game that proved TO
be such a strain. Kennedy and Thornton
were pitted against each other and both
We're on thelf mettle. Thornton did the
better work, however, shutting his oppo-
nent out without a hit.
The Brooklyns looked like winners in
the first game, as they jumped on Cal
lahan and hit him very hard in the first
inning. After that they could not do any
thing and the home team won after a
plucky uphill fight The scores:

BIG BOXING CARNIVAL.
Noted "Pugs'' VIII Meet in Chicago
I'm October.


Chicago, Aug. N.-This city will have a
boxing carnival this FAN that promises
to eclipse all other similar undertakings
that have ever been attempted in this
city. The preliminary arrangements are
in the hands of several well-known sport
details known until all the fences have
been repaired.
1t is the purpose to hold the carnival
during the week of the proposed peace
jubilee. conditional contract has been
closed for the lease of Tattersall build
ing for October. Purses will be offered
which will far surpass in amount any
prizes that have been hung up by the
many promoters who have conducted box
ing shows in the city.
The several athletic clubs in the city are
interested in the carnival. but it is under
stood that the Chicago Athletic Associa-
ton will take the initiative. Should
kid Mccoy make good showing
against Corbett in Buffalo the former will
be one of the contestants in the carnival.
Choynski is willing to meet kid for a
limited number of rounds. Another star
attraction, if arrangements can be con-
cluded, will be between Sharkey and
Childs.
The promoters have several new men
on the string, but in order to guard
against "fiukes'' the men will be tried
before they will be allowed to compete
against men with regulations established

"BasebaI Among the Ancients.v

A member of the Canton Theological
School, who is interested in the great
national game, has written a thesis on
Baseball Among the Ancients." From
this are CLEANED the following interesting
points, which help to establish his con-
tentiop:
The devil was the first catcher-he
coached Eve when she stole frst-Adam
stole second.
When Isaac met Rebecca at the well
she was walking with a pitcher.
Sampson struck out a great many times
when he beat the Philistines.
Moses made his first run when he slew
the Egyptian.
Cain made base hit when he killed
Abel.
Abraham made a sacrifice.
The prodigal son made a home run.
David was a great long distance

The injury to Setback in Thursday s
game. which will in all probability keep
him out of the diamond for the balance
of the season, will prove a serious handi-
cap 10 the Senators. The absence of
the Baron viii be sorely felt, as his
timely stick work and sensational field
ing have won and saved many games for
the Wagnerftes. II seems as though just
when the club hits a winning streak an
accident is sure to befaII one of its besc
players. II viii be remembered that Far
relI was injured when the club was
going a lively clip last June, and had
succeeded in winning so per cent of the
games played on the first Western trip.
The individual records of the Senators,
with three exceptions. in the Louisville
series, are not calculated to excite any
enthusiasm or awaken admiration
among the local fans. The team was
weak with the stick and did very rag
ged work in the field, as the following

makes the newspaper men have a good
time while the show is in town. Mr.
Davis knows the show business from
start to finish; knows how to handle
men and has the happy faculty Of
making people think they are giving
him information, while he is enlight-
ening them.
The interests of James A. Bailey
and w. W. Cole are looked after by
DIR. Thos. L. Evans. distinguished
young man who is an expert account
ant.
Last night the big show left Au-
gusta for Athens, and the work Of
loading and getting away was done in
two hours. The only things left be-
hind by the boss canvasman, the boss
hostler and the master Of transporta-
tion were the ring banks and the
atmosphere.
If you have any idea Of going into
the business test your intellect first,
for if you are not more than smart
you will go broke. There are no
idiots in the winning end of the show
business, and if you burn acircus man
for a fool you II get wise ashes.
If you want to be a performer go
peep into the circus dressing room.
Yesterday [ was in one of the
dressing rooms when a big fat man
came running in. He was so fat he
could barely walk. While l was look
ing at him heard noise like cscap-
ing steam and suddenly the fat man
began to collapse. [ thought he was
about to die, for in an instant he be-
came very thin, but then he elevated
his shirt and then divesting himself
of his clothing pulled off rubber suit
that had been filled with air.
Acrobats, riders, Roman gladiators,
animal trainers, leapers and scores Of
others were all dressing and undress-
ing at the same time. Each man has
little trunk about three feet long
and half as wide. He keeps his ward
robe in this and tells when he is made
up correctly by bit Of glass in the
top of it.
Everybody with this great circus
seems happy, and if there are any
who are not they conceal their feel
ings we'll and ther. is no complaining.
There are no points overlooked in
the big organization. Whenever the
head of department employs new
man he watches him carefully, and If
he finds that the man is not strong or
is airing in any way he lets him go.
AS result only big, healthy fellows
remain long.
When the show gets here tomorrow
you will see the same system that was
seen at Anderson, at Augusta and at
Athens. Follow it every where and
you will see only one change and that
will be the location.
