IOWA TEAMS TO FIGHT 1T OUT.
Fort Dodge and AIgona to Clash at
Lexington Park Sunday.

An o1d-time grudge will be wiped
out at Lexington park Sunday AFTER

Dodge citizens ARE proud of their ball
team and they have much money
ready to back this team A large por-
ton of this money was turned into a
certified check and this check was de-
posted in an Iowa bank. Algona was
asked ito cover the check. Algona is
just as proud Of it's team, and the
check was Immediately covered.
The railroad companies running into
st. Paul from the South have inter-
ested themselves1in this fight and have
arranged another excursion to ST.
Paul. Fort Dodge " has already ar
ranged for several hundred tickets,
and, headed by a BRASS band, every
citizen able to leave Fort Dodge will
be in st. Paul next Sunday

as was demonstrated in the called
game played two weeks ago. Local
fans who watched the former clash are
arranging to attend this second game,
for the pleasure of watching a

team to win out proves a novelty. A
number Of local sports have taken
sides and several large bets have been
made. One business man now holds
more than $500 in bets made between
Algona and Fort Dodge Supporters.

MANAGER KELLEY SIGNS THE
FORMER HoosfER PITCHER
Twirler Is FastnMan, but Had Row
With Watkins and Drew His Re-
Iease-New Player Will Meet Team
At Columbus and Should Strengthen
Staff. a

Ralph Miller, up to last week one
of the twirlers on the Indianapolis
pitching staff, is now a Saint. Man
ager Kelley has signed Miller and he
will join the team at Columbus.
Miller was with the Indianapolis
team when Watkins band appeared at
Lexington in the last series. He drop
ped his game to the Saints, and this
fact in way explains his joining the
st. Paul team.
Watkins thought he saw first place
for the Indians while the team was
playing in st. Paul, and it went hard
with the pitcher. losing a game Miller
fell down, and that night while the
team was headed for Milwaukee
Watkins spoke harshly about the de-
feat. Miller replied just as harshly, and
the argument ended with Watkins
suggestion that the pitcher seek a new
berth. Manager Kelley heard of the re-
lease and Immediately wired terms to
the pitcher. Miller accepted the terms
and was instructed to join the team ut

SAINTS LEAVE FOR THE EAST.
Team to Play With Columbus, Toledo,
INDIANAPOLIS and [ Louisville

Having concluded a most successful
at-home series the st. Paul team left
last night for a tour of the East The
team will open UP in Columbus and
weather permitting will play five
games with the Senators. The Saints
have two postponed games with Co
lumbus and the Fnanagements have ar
ranged to play these postponed games
off in this series. Through with Co
lumbus the Saints play three games
with Toledo and then meet Indian
apolis and Louisville,
Manager Kelley is not satisfied with
the chance to remain in third place.
He believes that the Saints are now
back in winning form and on this trip
the team will make a hard fight to
pull up for a battle with the leaders
Kelley has signed Pitcher Miller, late
of Indianapolis and Miller should
greatly strengthen the twirling depart
ment. ara T.
Outfelder Daugherty and Pitcher
Dick Cogan dido not3 accompany the
team on the trip. i Cogan's hand is in
bad shape and with billiard back in
condition Daugherty was left behind
Manager Kelley will keep in constant
touch with Daugherty and if he is
needed the big fellow will at once be
ordered to. the front
The Saints now o,,have fighting
chance for better than third place.
The Indians have been taking the
wrong end of a number of games,
while the Saints have been playing
back in their old form-the form that
but for the, slump would have had
them in first place today
Marcan had made good in the in
field and with all the injured ones back
in the game the Saints should make
s. good record on this trip. In the
concluding games of the series just
completed the team showed even fast
er than Indianapolis and, if things
break their way, the games with Co
lumbus and Toledo should give them
a good start. Then come the games
with Indianapolis and Louisville and
then the Saints set all the teams right
in their own park for the finish.

English Tennis Experts Are OutpIayed II
New York Il

NEW YORK, Aug. 6.-The Dwight F.
Davis International lawn tennis challenge
cup appears to be destined to continue to
repose IN this country Both Malcolm D.
Americans, played better than DR.. Joshua
PIN and r. F. DOherty, the Englishmen,
in the two sets played in the opening con-
tests in the singles. on the courts of the
Crescent Athletic club at Bay Ridge to-
day. In both competitions the point
score was e-sided, and had the rain
unquestionably have returned the Amer
leans winners. Whitman scored his sets
against DR.. PIN at 81, 6-1 and Larned
against r. F. Doherty at GO. 6-3.
A gallery of 1000 persons filed the
grand stands and every point of vantage.
The opening service in each contest fell
match and Bob Wren for that between
Larned and Doherty.
Whitman began his service with a
straight ball that proved a fault. on his
second trial the ball struck true and on
the second return DR.. PIN drove a poor,
back-hander into the net which gave the
first point to the unbeaten Yankee cham
pion. Whitman lobbed over his oppo-
nent's head for the next point, then ran
into the net and smashed for the third
IN a way that seemed to daZe the Briton.
The old-time champion of all England
was slow in comparison with his Yankee
opponent.
The second set was even easier for
Whitman He well knew that he had the
challenging player at his mercy and
rushed the playing in the hope of finishing
the match before the rain came down, but
Referee Richard Stevens decided to post
pone the matches until tomorrow.

The real sport of the play was furnished
in the Larned-Doherty match, and it was
not long before the attention was all
drawn to the court nearest the clubhouse,
where the younger players were engaged.
There was scarcely play which was
not applauded and the experiences dis.
could hardly be said to have outclassed
the Briton Larned displayed a particu-
larly fine eye for the side lines on his re-
turns and most of his points were made
