TIP COMES TOO LATE
Minneapolis Man Gets Hunch From
a Chicago Friend Upon the
American Derby.
He Is Now Thanking His Stars
That the Mails Went
Wrong.

An amusing incident In connection with
the American derby, which was won at
Chicago Saturday by the Picket is re-
lated by a Minneapolis man. Yesterday
morning the man in question received d
letter from friend in Chicago. The
epistle had evidently been intended to
reach here Saturday, but was delayed in
some manner. It read:
Il have a tip for you on the American
derby. It Is a sure thing, and you want to
play it for all it is worth. Bet your shirt
on Judge Hines; he can't lose
Associated Press dispatches this morn
ing say that Judge Hines has just been
sighted coming down the stretch and the
grooms are getting his blanket ready. The
Minneapolis man is thanking his special
providence that the mails sometimes go
wrong. 81"
Another good story comes from New
York. Second avenue sports, most Of
whom belong to the Sullivan Hesper club
had tip on The Picket to win the derby.
They played the tip, but are out their
money and they look to Simon Steingut
mayor Of Second avenue; for an explana-
ton.
Steingut was with a crowd Of Hesper
club members Friday night when Joe
Levy, duke of Essex street, came in with
a tip on The Picket.
big Tim got der tip frum Conigan in
Chicago" he said. sI seen der telegram %
'Sheepshead for mine,'' said Airy Null
ligan. II play no western races
well, blay den,'' said Steingut. IT go
me by poolroom we're dere aind any mud
or two tollars to get in by der gate''
Other sports of Second avenue couldn t
keep away from the race track on a Satur-
day, and it was suggested that bets on The
Picket be intrusted to Steingut who an
nounced that he could get into an up
| town poolroom where there was no limit
to the betting. About $500 in all was put
in his hands. Hesper club sports went
to Sheepshead Bay and Steingut went to
the pool room, where he met an uptown
politician, formerly a bookmaker at the
| tracks, but who was ruled off some years
ago.

Fargo N d., June 23.-The Fargo baseball
team broke into the nine. hole in the Northern
league. The club has had a chapter of bad luck
and the boys have gradually chased themselves
down the percentage column Weak points have
been hard to strengthen on account Of the late
ness of the season. and it has been especially
hard to get the right kind Of twirlers. The man
ageInent has finally landed Pitcher Davis Of the
st. Paul team and expects him to do some fast
work. Davis was farmed to Duluth earlier in the
season, but differences with the management led
to change of base. =

IN THE PRIZE RING

Jeffries has changed his mind and will do his
training for his bout with Corbett at Hardin
Springs, Col, instead Of at Ell Campo. The big
fellow yearns for retirement, and concluded to
seek the quiet of the country resorts rather than
endure the gaze Of the thousands that would
be thrown upon him were he to work at the picnic
grounds near San Francisco. He will start work
within day or two, and will keep constantly
at it until the date Of the fight While most
of the boiler-maker's. friends think he is in
good condition, there number who are Of
the opinion that he is already on the decline.
One of them said that Jeffries was not nearly
well as he was four years ago. 'He was
rugged and comparatively spare them he con-
tinued, whereas to-day he is big and fabby.
He stands erect no longer, but has habit Of
STOPPING over These are bad signs. .
With the exception Of few minor details the
third match between Jack O'Keefe, the Chicago
