Fifth Consecutive Game Lost to the

CURRENT SPORTING NOTES


The game at National Park yesterday
afternoon between the Senators and Louis
vilies was of the "dopey'' class, the locals
playing in very lstless manner. and the
visitors conducting themselves as though
playing with amateur nine. But four
errors are charged against the Senators,
but to the onlookers it seemed as if they
had fourteen. The Louisvilles won by the
score of II to 4. and they could just as
easily have made it 81 to +. Magee began
twirling for the Senators. but once more
his effective ball. a fast drop, was beyond
his control, and he proved an easy prob
lem when the ball was thrown slowly to
get it over the plate Gus weighing re-
Heved him in the third, but the contest
was already lost. the veteran took things
easy, and the Colonies slugged the ball
for keeps.
Walter Woods was on the rubber for
the Louisviles. and while he was hit for
twelve bingles, the double hits can be
ascribed chiefly to Walters generosity, as
he doubtless concluded the game was won
and that there was no need of exerting
himself. McGann and Freeman were once
more the stars in the batting line, the
former getting three clean singles, while
the latter hammered out single and
home run As on previous occasions Free
man was the only bright spot in the weird
exhibition, his long drives giving the spec
tators their only chance to applaud some
thing done by the Senators. Buck picked
out one of Woods high curves, and when
it was through sailing in the air it landed
among the right fielder's admirers in the
beachers.
Yesterdays victory made the fifth
straight for the Colonies, and the young
fellows from Kentucky deserve all they
got. as they played good. consistent ball
Yesterday they doubtless concluded base
hits We're due them, and at the wind up
of the game it was found that nineteen
hits for total of twenty-seven bases was
the sum total of their work with the stick.
A curious part of the twiriing was the fact
that not a player on either side struck
out. Following is the score:

WINNERS At ROGUE.
Williams, Edmunds and Wagner
First In the Three QiYisians.

The winners of the different divisions of
the rogue tournament have been decided
upon. c. G. Williams is the winner of the
first division and champion of the tourna-
nlent. Edmunds is winner of the second
division, while Wagner is the third d.
vision champion. A remarkable fact is that
all the winners have lost no games what
ever up to noon today. and as Wagner
has played all his games he can lose none.
Edmunds has one more to play and VIII
ilams has several yet to play.
The contest between Chalfant and Ed
munds for the first place in the second
ing, and although Chalfant gave Edmunds
a hard fight the latter won. Several of the
finishing games of the tournament will be
aged this evening, in which Williams
and Wahly will participate.
The game between Williams and Strong
was fight from beginning to end, and
had not Mr.. Strong lost the balls by mis-
take he would have had as good a chance
as Williams to have won out Both play
ing. MIR Bell and Mr.. Strong are tied for
second honors in the first division. Last
year Mr.. Bel, although known to be a
good player, was nevertheless thought to
be second division man. This year he
was entered in the first division and
surprised all by the remarkably close game
he played. Mr.. Bell deserves great credit
for his beautiful playing.
The rogue tournament is held in this city
each September, usually about the third
week. Ii the interest in the tournament
continues to enlarge as it has the last few
years rogue viii soon rank with golf and
tennis among the American sports.

STARRING.

Oscar Gardner, the Omaha Kid" did not
fight up TO his usual standard when he met
Jack Hamilton of Troy at the Broadway
Athletic Club, New York. last night. Ham
ilton won in a decisive manner, and the
referee gave him the bout at the end Of the
twenty-fifth round. Gardner was two to
one favorite at the start, but his chance to
win became less and less as the fight pro-
ceeded. Hamilton was careful and agrees
sive, while Gardner was careless and left
many openings.
Gardner was f1oored in the fourth round
with a swing on the jaw and he was forced
to the ropes in the seventh Hamilton put
him over the ropes several times after that
Gardner began fighting hard in the four
teenth, sending right to the body and bring
ing it up to the head. 1t was give and take
right to the end, but Gardner was bleeding
badly in the twentysecond Gardner rush
ed at Hamilton in the final round landing
left and right on the head. Hamilton stag
gered, but pulled himself together and
went back with swing the Jaw when
put Gardner down. Gardner was on his
feet and fighting fiercely when the bell
rang.

1t is a good thing for the financial end

weeks trip last night, as it win take about
that length of time to erase the bad taste

PLAYED FINE TENNIS.

Every Set.
The finals in gentlepen's singles in the
Y. NJ. C. A. lawnntennis tournament were

Almost every game was deuce and Mr. Gee
fought for every point to the best of his

the score. His placing was magnificent and
he had his opponent decidedly worried. The
score stood all, then all, Mr.. Davidson

equally exciting, and was also won by Da-
wilson. Ga. Too much praise cannot be
given Mr. Gee for his fine showing against
the District champion. With little training
he went up against man who ranks, pos
sibly, eighth in the country and made him
work from start to finish. Although all
three sets went to Davidson, 1t does not
show the close score. Every game and

SUBDIVIDING THE DIVISION,
Proposed Creation of Four Depart.
ments In the Philippines.

A plan is under consideration at the War
Department to create an army division of
the Philippines and divide the division into
departments a basis similar to that in
Cuba. The idea is to create four depart
ments in the Philippines, at least three of
which will be commanded by major gem
erals. The Philippines have heretofore
been known the Department of the
Pacific 1t is expected that one depart
ment of the proposed new division will
consist of General MacArthurs command
north of Manila, another will be General
Lawton's command south of Manila and a
third will be a new command to operate
from Lingayen or Dagupen. The fourth
department probably will consist of the
troops in the islands south of Manila which
include the commands now at Iloilo, Cebu,
and other points. General Otis will be in
command of the division just as General
Brooke is i'll command of the division of
Cuba. Generals LaWton and Macarthur
will each command a department. The
commanders of the other two departments
have not been selected.
The plan is to give each department COM
mander all the troops that can be success
fully operated and which will insure suffi-
Gent garrison for all points taken. Pro-
lection to the peaceable tribes is one of the
chief objects.

! A public century run will be given by the

| The committee in charge is untiring in its

most successful of the kind ever off.
AT recent meeting of the committee the

| August l. of last year.
The start will be made from the club
| house, 627 E street northwest, at o'clock
| am The first checking station will be
at what is known "the stream" about
fourteen miles out the 7th street road. The
return will be made to the city and up the
Conduit road as far the Anglers club
| house, thence back to the city, where stop
will be made for dinner. Starting out at 2
o'clock the run will be out to Onley and
Ashton and return, making in all little
! over 100 miles. This course has for some
time been considered by the local wheel
! men very desirable one, and the full time
| limit Of fourteen hours will be consumed in
making the run. The Century Cycle Club
| Will not sanction any more fast centuries,
| under its jurisdiction claiming it is hurt
| full to the sport and this is the general opjn-
ion of all road riders today.
| Captain Ed. S. Byrnes has the run in

competition in Washington is so small it
GOES not JUSTIFY the organization in giving
