0N the Race 'Svack
At Louisville.

Louisville, May 1A-Pat Dunn's Toah won the feature race at Churchill Downs today in impressive style, with Abe Frank, G. Bennett & Co.'S American derby candidate, a bad second. Abe Frank made the running until the turn into the stretch, when Winkfield. who had kept Toah near the leader. took com mand and steadily, drew away from the favorite winning by two lengths. Toah's easy victory of last Friday. when he showed his heels to Jim Clark and Death, and incidentally lowered the track record for 1916 of mile, made him a close second choice in the betting today. and he was heavily backed. The card was made up of SIX well-balanced races, three of them going to favorftes and two to second choices-Imp Judicious and Imp Laval The weather was cloudy and track fast. Summarizes:
 First race. five furlongs, selling-Lula Glazer, ss (Ransch). 2to 1. won; Tissue. 100 CWilson), 13 to 5. second; Lura Light CT, 1o3 Uindsey), 12 to 1. third. Time 1:02A.

Food for the Fans.

Manager Haller and his team of Coal Barons arrived last night from Chatta- noosa feeling blue over the deal they got in Chattanooga.
 "Of all the rank umpires I have ever seen,' said MT. Haller, Ohio Is the worst. We got the worst of 1t on every decision and in the ninth 1t was some thing awful. Up to that time we had the game to B. The first man up was Andy Roth who deliberately stuck his arm out. .and let the ball hit 1t. Ohio or- dftel hirn back to the plate saying that don't go.' Roth seemed very much smaz- ed and when he kicked the umpire told him it was all right he could stay on first. The next man hit to Frank Smith, who threw him out at first, but Ghio call ed him safe. The next man was given his base on balls making no attempt to strike at balls which apparently split the plate. Durrett then hit safe and the two winning scores were made.
 "It was raining hard at this time and I insisted on the game being called. Ghio finally called the men in and waited some time. The crowd began yelling and while 1t was still raining Ghio walked out and ordered us to play ball. I kicked and he changed his mind. This kept up until just before the game was called again when I talked to Ghio rather strong and he had a policeman to take me out. When Moss went to the bat he also kicked but was forced to hit the ball. He then told the umpire he was rotten'' and another policeman was called.
 Such umpiring as was given in Chat tanooga today will be great injury to baseball in the South.
 Clark, the new pitcher. joined the team at Chattanooga and will appear in uni form this afternoon Mir Haller has not as yet announced his pitcher for today's game.
 The game of ball between the Birming- ham Athletic Club and Howard college was not played yesterday on account of wet grounds. The date for the game has not been selected yet. but 1t will be play ed Sext week if not during the latter part of this week.

Smith Knocks Home Run.

Birmingham made her fourth run in the last part of the third inning. With two men out on flies to center. LaRocque hit safe to third, and F. Smith knocked one to the same bag that Taylor failed to handle.
 With the two men on base, Moss hit over short to left center garden and LaRocque scored. Sorber struck out and retired the side. It was neck and neck the rest of the game
 In the fifth 1t looked like run for the locals. Lawrence hit safe and stole sec- ond. Taylor hit one to center that looked like three-bagger. W. Smith went after 1t and made a sensational one-hand catch that Is one of the greatest on record.
 In the ninth Hopkins got a scratch, the next two men went out. Taylor got his base on balls. Durrett hit over second scoring Roth and Hopkins.
 It began to rain then, and Ghio called the game for few minutes. Hailer was put out of the grounds by policeman for kicking. After waiting until the rain stopped Ghio called for the play Nice work shut out the Coal Barons Moss went out on fly to Shocks. Sorber flew out to left and Blue made the third out with a fly to center.

Chattanooga, Tenn. May H.-(SpeciaD- Chattanooga won today by the score of to 4 in a thoroughly exciting finish. Spratt was. sick yesterday and unable to play, so that Lawrence was put at short, Daugherty went to right garden and Shocks took his position at first bag.
 Hopkins was in the box for Chatta- nooga and did nice work. The only con- siderable hit that was secured off him was the home run by F. Smith with one man on base. The other five hits were badly scattered, and with errorless play ing Birmingham would not have been scored.
 Denver did nice work in the box for Birmingham at times, but he was hit hard at other times by the locals. F. Smith played at third bag instead of Warren. W. Smiths catch of Taylor's long fly in the fifth inning was one of the greatest that has ever been seen here.
 Umpire Ghio officiated He goes to Bir- mingham for the three games this week.
 Rain stopped the game in the last half of the ninth and Umpire Ohio waited un- til it stopped before he ordered the game to go on. This made the Birmingham players very angry, as the score would have gone back to the eighth. thereby giving Birmingham the game if 1t had been stopped at that time.

Manager HaIIer Fined.

Manager Haller had to be fined and sent off the field in charge of police man for using rough language, and the same was done with Moss a few moments later.
 Chattanooga made the first run of the game Molesworth hit one down to short and LaRocque, not content with muffing it. made wild throw to first and Molesie went on to second station. Lawrence got his base on balls. Durrett was the next man up. He hit a pretty one to center garden and Molesworth was thrown out at the plate In trying to make the run. Shocks hit safe through first to right field and Lawrence scored.
 Birmingham did the bulk of run-making in the first. Longley hit to Hopkins and made first safely. W. Smith sacrificed and Haller hit safe to short, while Longley scored on Hopkins wild throw. LaRooque made the second out with fly to center garden. F. Smith then came to the bat and lined one out over left field fence, making the first home run of the season on the local grounds and scoring Haller. Moss then hit safe to center. and Sorber made the third out with fly to right.
 In the third Chattanooga tied the score Lawrence hit a slow one in the diamond and made first. Taylor came up and hit the same kind of one. Durrett hit to right and Lawrence scored. Dur rett went down to second on a steal and Taylor ran in. The ball came close, but catcher Blue dropped 1t and Taylor was fa

VENEZUELA Is NOW MAKING FACES s.

Willemstad, Island Of Curacao, Nov.
2o.-It is considered remarkable that
President Castro has not resumed the
functions Of the presidency of Vene-
zuela, which he gave over to the vice
president when he took the field prior
to the battle of La Victoria. This
delay on the part of President Castro
Is regarded by the diplomats as an in
dication that he is not satisfied that
the revolution is over, although he in
formed the foreign ministers that it
would be completed not later than
Dec. 5.
The strain of the relations between
Great Britain and Venezuela has been
intensified by the refusal of the Brit

APOSTLE REED "SM00TS' FIGURES IN
AMUSING. NEWSPAPER EDITORIALS

Apostle Reed Smoot and his SEN
atorial candidacy are the subject OF
much interesting newspaper literature
these days throughout the United
States. The cartoonist also is having a
little gentle fun with the churehman.
The following editorial in the Lamar.
Mo-, Democrat and the comment on
the editorial from the Joplin Globe are
together probably the funniest thing
that has yet been printed. The Lamar
paper, under the heading "Smoots and
Polygany," says:
-Four years ago the Democrats, out
in Utah, nominated for congress- the
Mormon Roberts and they carried the
state by a good-sized majority & This
time the recognized candidate or the
Republican party out in the bailiwick
founded by Brigham Young was Elder
Shoots, Latter-day Saint in good
standing, with four charming yvixes.
The result OF the election was easy to
foresee. With such a formidable can
d1date opposed to them, what could
the unfortunate Democrats do?r The
state went Republican by crushing
majority, and Elder Shoots and his
four charming helpmeets will be sent
TO the senate. What the Democrats
really should have done in the recent
canvass out in Utah, was to have i'm
ported the sultan of Sulu and named
him as candidate. This dusky auto
crat and his sixty wives would GER
tainiy have stampeded the Mormon
vote and buried the g. o. p. under a
