T. W. LAWSON WRITES a BOOK.
Copper Maanate Scores New York
Yachtsmen at Considerable Expense.

BOSTON, Mass. July 10.-Thomas
w. Lawson, the multimfllionaire cop
per magnate, has Joined the ranks Of
authors--at an expense of 100000 On
Monday his first literary effort, enti-
tied THE Lawson History of the
Americas Cup" will be ready for dis
tribution, and not one Of the 900
copies which will be printed will be
offered for sale. Mr.. Lawson, as an
author, as in all things he undertakes
shows originality, for he has prepared
and published a private edition of
what is designed to be an authentic
history of international yachting con-
tests. each volume costing approx
mately $50. The distribution is to he
gratis to friends and the yacht clubs
and principal libraries of the world.
The book represents year of labor
on the part of compilers, artists. en-
graverS and printers. AS a history ii
is of a serious character, designed to
fill a want in the record of internal
tional yachting, a sport in which there
is a dearth of reliable literature Still,
behind all the seriousness of the book.
there is to be seen the Lawson spirit.
for Mr.. Lawson is a born fighter for
principles, and he pays his respects to
the New York millionaireS who shut
him out from defending the cup with
the yacht Independence, which he
built and kept in commission last sea-
son at an expense of more than $780,
600.
1t will be readily recalled that a year
ago this month Mr.. Lawson crossed
swords with the New York Yacht
club over d question of ethics in the
defense of the Americas cup. He
built the independence to- the REQUIRE
ments of the cup defense class and
purposed sailing her in the trial races
for the selection of vessel to defend
the cup. He claimed that any Amer
lean who could produce a boat worthy
the honor had the right to defend the
cup. The New York Yacht club
claimed no vessel not enrolled in it's
fleet and qualified to fly it's flag could
take part in the cups defense. The
club barred Mr.. LaWson's yacht, and
after time the discussion which
ragged over the matter was dropped.
Mr.. Lawson broke UP his vessel.
having no further use for her, put her
bronze plates on the scrap heap or
made souvenir mugs from them, and
for nearly a year nothing has been
heard from him on the matter of
yachting. But on Monday he will re-
appear on the yachting fields, this
time as an author, and in his private
ly printed history he shows that he is
as full Of fight as ever and hasn't got
ten through with the New York
syndicate" of yachtsmen. He still
maintains that he or any other Amer
lean has right to defend the cup.
and he devotes a 400 page volume to
it, thus showing that he is the king of
pamphleteers.

COLUMBUS, Ohio, Aug. 10.-After
hurrying Archie Stimmel through nine
innings for the short-gam record the
Saints paused and the abused Senators
landed their seventh try. Scores, 2 to
0 and to 0. In the to game, A.
Stimmel, being in a hurry, distributed
just two bases on balls and permitted
one hit. The safe one was collected
by Barton, a young man who is with
the No. 2 company of Senators, owing
to the stabbed shins of c.. Wagner.
Stimmel had a chance to break in on
the no-hit page of the official guide,
but Barton needs the money.
H. Lumley almost telescoped his legs
in sliding into c. Wagner in the open
ing game here and will be confined to
a pair of slap sticks for at least two
weeks. Daugherty has been ordered
to report and with proper connections
will reach here in time to work in the
game tomorrow.
The Saints scored their two runs of
the day early in the afternoon. An
error gave Shannon a life in the first
round and billiards. single to right sent
him in with the tally. Myers error
save hSlISy d CudUc0 III the second IN
ming and Marcan's clout for two scored
the manager. During the rest of the
opening part Tom Thomas remained a
regular crouch and spread three hits
far apart
Stmmel permitted five of the Bryce
troupe to get on the paths, and one of
the five got as far as second. Bartons
clout called forth much comment dur
ing the game.
In the second the Senators had their
first chance in seven games. r. Miller,
the man who quarreled himself out of
place with the possible champions,
worked a fast game for the Saints,
but McMakin, without the second G,
also hurried.
The Senators scored their first tally
in the fourth when four hits sent one
across the plate. Fast work by the
fielders stopped two more runs before
they could be counted.
In the ninth a single and two hunts
filled the paths. Hub Knoll raped one
to right and two runs came in.
The first game was probably the
record game of the association this
wear, as it was played in one hour and
twelve minutes. Scores:

FORT DODGE is SHUT OUT.
Colored Ball Players From Iowa
PLAY Fast Game.

BY punching hits in the fourth and
fifth innings the Algona, colored
champions of Iowa, won shivery
game from Fort Dodge at Lexington
park yesterday afternoon. Score 3
to 0. The promising appearance of the
dark rain clouds held the attendance
down and made the afternoon a most
disagreeable one.
Horne's pitching was the real fea-
ture of the game. The colored twirler
had the Fort Dodge players at his
mercy throughout the game, and after
the white men had missed their chance
to score in the first inning there was
nothing to it but Algona.
In the first round hits and errors
filled the bases with but one gone. A
drive to short forced the second out
at the plate and Horne famed the
third man.
Aside from Horne's slab work the
umpire exhibition furnished by Aid
Richard Cogan, injured pitcher, stood
out and won much favorable comment.
Mr.. Cogan debuted as an umpire in a
light summer suit, pink shirt, large
diamond and white cap. A murmured
objection by one of the players early
in the game discovered that the UNI
pire was pitcher on the ST. Paul
team, and from that time every thing
passed off most pleasantly. Score:

Never has more exciting game been

work locating the plate in Stillwater's

ed recently by the phenomenal jumping

position on the other side and never
even stirred the second brick His
star feat was when he cleared nine
