Mike Andrews of Perth Amboy, N. J., has been signed to play third base for Waterbury, He was formerly a member of the Newark team.
 Manager Robinson of the Baltimore team of the American league is after new players. He will probably sign Billy Smith, a second baseman of Woonsocket, R. l., and he has tele- graphed to Catcher Yeageg who has been retired by the New Yorks.
 George Mulligan of the Washington Hills was on the third sack for Water bury and his work was better than many of the third basemen in this league. He had five chances and took them ali. One of them was a some- what bad throw to first, but it got to Slater, who dropped it. Another one was the catching of a man at third and he held the ball, although knocked down by the runner. His corking tWo- bagger was responsible for one of our two runs.
 John " Roger, the New Haven Reg ister base ball writer, is one of the best scorers in the Connecticut league, and no player gets credit from John for what he doesn't do. If man makes an error it goes down as such, and it hit, it is put in the hit column. Reger, who is the official scorer for the Bluebirds, treats the visiting teams just the same as he does the home team and he has no fayorites. Base ball is base ball, and should be scored as such.-Meriden Record

Delehanty of Cleveland has an aver age of over 400, which places him in the lead of American league batsmen.
 The first American league player to reach the century mark in base hits is Lave Cross of the Athletics of Phila- delphia. 1T
 Some of the local players stood So far away from the plate yesterday that they could not have hit the ball with fence rail-
 Pitcher Katoll, who was ordered to Baltimore by Manager Comiskey of the Chicago club, refuses to go. He wants to buy his release.
 Weisbeeker made his first appearance here since released by Waterbury, and his work with the stick was just as weak as when he was here. In the field he took the only two chances he had.
 The National magnates will have to burn both ends of the candle in order to outgeneral the greatest leader baseball has ever seen, Ban Johnson. The National leaders look like Simple Simons alongside of Washing ton Post.
 Comiskey says the sell-out of Me- Graw was the cheapest play he ever saw pulled off in baseball. Said he: They have rid US, without. any blame attaching to our shoulders, of the worst bunch that ever broke into base ball, and the men who have been a menace to the American league eyer since we took them in.'' An exchange says: "Connie Mack of the Philadelphia Athletics is after the services of Second Baseman Ab- atticchio of the Nashville team of the Southern league. Abatticchio leads his league in batting and stolen bases.'' Local fans will wonder at this. Dan Murphy, who is covering second, is playing great ball and it is difficult to see what Mack wants of another sec ond baseman unless he is desirous of a utility player.
 The Benedict & Burnham Manufac- turing Co.'S baseball team challenge any shop team in the city to a game of ball Saturday afternoon at o'clock, game to be played at Riverside park. The Holmes. Booth & Haydens or Ring shop teams are preferred. The lteam has no games arranged and any shop team that wants game can ad- dress Fred T. Wells, 75 Abbott ave- nue, manager Benedict & Burnham l team.

seat satsa prizefght at home, and they didn't purpose to do it over there, es pecially in view of the fact that the fights were not for championships that meant anything ho them.
 'tSharkey was beaten sure enough, but he was not the pitiable wreck that so many reports have made him out to be. The next morning after the fight he logged ten miles on the road and be played with the children on the village common as though he had not been ill the ring the night before. Tom had q goo1 chance in the first round when he f1oored Ruhlin ,the bell saving him each time. Gus fought well.
 "Sharkey gave exhibitions in Dun- dalk. Dublin and Cork and the leading cities of Ireland, and altogether clean- ed up some $1O,OO0 on the other side. At Dundalk, Toms old home, they had not heard of the result of the fight, and Sharkey was made great hero by the villagers. In fact, the defeat was disregarded all through Ireland. He was simply the great Tom Sharkey.
 ..If WaIcott and West faked, don't know it. They fought their best ap- parently. West was all but out in the first round, but after that he pulled together and made gallant struggle. Frank Erne fought beautiful fight against Maloney, who, by the way, is a corking good lightweight. Frank showed that if anything he is better than ever. McFadden fought two great fights, and Jordan deserves cred- it for the way he weathered the little Californian's rushes for fifteen rounds and knocked him out in fifteen seconds before the last bell. All the lights were interesting.
 We were all well treated, and there isn't kick coming anywhere. It IS due to Manager Betison to say this
 eff the American clubs always paid their obligations as does the National, the game here would not be in it's present down and out condition"
 For beating Andy Stevenson, the St Louis heavyweight, at the latter's home, Jimmy Handler, the clever mid dleweight of Newark, N. J., received only $86 as his share of the prize money. The Jerseyman says no more St Louis for him.

 Games.
 Waterbury went down once more and this time we bowed before our old rival, Meriden. This makes so many defeats in succession that we are get ting callous about it and it does not aggravate us as it might. It was not a bad game, but was well played throughout, the only errors made by Waterbury costing us nothing. Meri- den played with but one error, and that was a costly one made by Bob Drew, who threw so wild to first that the runner went all around the bases. Neither side hit the ball hard, but Meriden placed her hits nicely and al- most all of them counted. Waterbury was guilty of her old failing of being unable to hit when a hit would have been valuable. This was never more apparent than in the last two innings, when a little scratch hit would have tied the game at least. 1t was a pitchers battle and while Clancy did excellent work, Walsh was doing bet ter. for his side.
 Both sides scored in the first in- hing. Altizer beat out bunt hit to first and Bob Drew sent a two sacker to the left garden and the first run was scored. Meriden got two more in the third on a single by Larkin, 8 sacrifice by Altizer, base on balls and two bagger by Joe Theisen. That ended Meriden's run getting.
 Waterbury scored one in the first in- ming on a single by Garry and an er- TOT by Bob Drew, who caught Garry at second and tried to double Slater at first, but the ball went mile back of first base. We scored our next and last run in the fifth when Luskey rapped out a single and George Multi gan hit for two bases to right, send ing him home. There were other chances to score on each side, but the pitchers were doing good work. The score and summary:

 would have walkaway, but the talent
 had bad scare. In the first race the PIP trot, the eastern contingent plunged on Pointdexter of the Lawson stable and he was a 2 to 1 favorite
 over the entire field. But Hesperus, who sold for $10 in pools of $500 won the first two heats, and then Waubun,
 owned in this city, who was entirely overlooked in the betting, won the next three in easy style. Pointdexter was
 away off form and was drawn in the
 fourth heat Direct, Hal won the 2:17 pace, but ,Eldrome gave the favorite
 warm fight. Direct Hal made bad
 break in the, second heat and was just able to beat the flag. ,s
 Itwas in the POT trot that the sensa- tion took place. The Monk, who won with such ease in Detroit, was forced | to meet meet Lord Derby, who was making his first start. The Monk was.
 a favorite at S250 to $50 over the field. When George Spear never made a
 move for, the first heat, the Judges took him down and put up Saunders. The ldlltI dilOWGd AAOid A/CLbya tO@ S,o IoNNA second heat after passing the half, winning right under the wire in a sen

 CT of Lord Derby, bet over $1O.O0O on
 the result of the third heat with Fred
 Gerken taking the other end. Just
 after the word was given, Lord Derby

 declared all bets off and fined Spear
 S250 for not trying to win the first heat.
 Dan Patch had a walkaway in the 2:04 pace.

one: and TO plunge without reservation
into public affairs. These affairs cannot
be treated side issues to which they
may occasionally devote spare hours. The
conditions do not permit it. 1t involves
self-sacrifice of u large measure. The

The other day Mrs. Norma Adams
and Samuel Gardner, who live on ad-
joining farms. began suit to determine
the ownership of a brood of fourteen
turkeys. The brood headed by two old
hens, a white and a bronze, had been
running the fields of both farms all
summer. Mrs. Adams, owned the bronze
hen and Mr.. Gardner the white. Each
claimed that their respective hen was
the mother of the brood. One of the
witnesses before the justice testified
that he had once turned "a dog upon the
struggling band of turkeys. AT the
approach of the dog the young birds
flew into Il tree, the bronze hen ran
into the woods, while the white hen
stood under the tree and gave battle
to the dog, which she repulsed then
called the brood to her, and they
marched off After hearing this wit
ness the justice decided that the white
hen was the mother of the brood and
gave the turkeys to Gardner.

WEDDING IN sCoTTsDALE
Marriage tf MT. H. D. Evans and Miss
 Mabel Telford.

In the quaint language of another, Truly Cupid is Omni and everywhere present. Even our little sequestered iesert village hath no bolts or bars that lie cannot withstand. And love making in tent, amid shifting sands and under the luXuriant shade of grease wood and cacti seems just as real and fatal q thing as that experienced in the older east" under lights incan- descent and beside the glowing anthra- cite To wit: A few years ago one of Great Britains subjects was led to ;hiS valley in search of health and to the same place and for the same req son came young Brooklyn girl. Fate crossed their paths and they soon found they had more in common than symp toms. Under our genial sun and in our balmy air loves sweet flower unfolded her petals wide and the first chapter of loves sweet story was concluded last night when in the presence of many friends and amid shower of well wishes MT. H. D. Evans of Mesa City and Miss Mabel Telford stood to- gether and took upon themselves the solemn vows of matrimony.
 The spacious Underhill home was in holiday trim for the occasion and all details were so well planned and so successfully executed as to make the occasion one of deep impressiveness with a happy freedom from all stiffness and excessive formality.
 To the sweet strains of the wedding march played by Mrs. Lyman McLal- Ian, the bride entered d side door un- attended and advancing, was joined by the groom in front of the officiat ing clergyman, Chaplain Scott. The ceremony used was the beautiful ring ceremony of the Episcopal church and the bride was given away by her mother, Mrs. Emma Paddock Telford, the gifted lecturer and newspaper writer well known in Phoenix.
 Following congratula tions came q de- licious wedding feast and an evening of social enjoyment
 The presents were many and of great beauty, as well as intrinsic value. notably the brides wedding gown of white Japanese silk. which was a gift of a young Japanese family friend and was ordered from Japan for the occa- sion.
 The following persons were present: Chaplain and Mrs. Winfield Scott, Mrs. Emma Paddock Telford Dr. Lapsley iLcAfee. Phoenix: Mrs Shirley Christy and mother. Phoenix Miss Louise Lynd, Phoenix; Mrs. Hayden. son and daughter, Tempe; MT. and Mrs. Code. Mesa; pr. Chandler, Mesa; Mrs. Baird,
