ton for Interiake Re-
gatta.

There has been much speculation
with respect to the selection of the
White Bear representative of the A
class for the interlake regatta to be
held at Oshkosh the latter part of Au-
gust. The regatta committee which
has had charge of the work named
Seeress, of Glass A, and Pluto, of Glass
B, but the excellent showing of Knight
Errant in the big class on Saturday
afternoon altered the situation and left
the supremacy of the two boats in
doubt.
1t was learned yesterday that the re-
gatta committee still stood by it's first
selections, and it looks now as If See
reSs would be the boat to go. William
Rees, the owner of Seeress, stated that
he is willing to abide by the choice Of
the club; that he wants the fastest
boat to go, and that If it can be shown
that the Ordway craft is an all-round
better boat than his, he is willing to
remain at home and yield to the clubs
wishes
The aftermath of the Saturday races
shows that the Seeress was not in the
best of tune, while Knight Errant was
in fine fettle.' A comparison of the time
of the A class boats with the other
classes shows that neither Knight En-
rant nor Seeress sailed a remarkably
fast race, as there was only a differ
Gnce OIL I'VE or SIX minutes between the
larger and smaller classes, whereas on
other days the difference has been fully
twice as great. 1t might be argued,
therefore, that the boats were not sail
ing as fast Saturday as they have on
other days in winds of equal strength.
Thus far this season Seeress has
won five of the official championship
races and Knight Errant four, and
three out of the five official trial races
have gone to the Rees boat.
The Seeress, which is foot and
half longer than is permitted by the
rules governing boats entered in the
Interlake Yachting association, has
been put into the hands of the builder,
John Johnson, with instructions to re-
duce her length to the proper meas
urement, after which further races will
be had with the Knight Errant the
latter part of the week with view of
putting her into tune, and she will be
shipped with Pluto in time to get to
Oshkosh in due season.
During the Oshkosh regatta there
will probably be no race on White Bear
in the A class. as Crusader and Min
nesota, two of the large boats, have
recently been sold off the lake, the
former going to Clear Lake. Iowa, and
the latter to Chicago.

Saints Come Back With an Ex-
ceilent Trave!ing Record
Louisville the Only Team to
Win Series-Club Only Lost
Four Games.
STANDING OF THE CLUBS.

This morning the st. Paul team will
return from it's successful tour through
the eastern end of the Hickey circuit.
The Saints come back with an excellent
record and this despite the fact that
Manager Kelley and Higgins have
been out of the game. Kelley was car
rying his leg in a plaster cast when
the team left for the trip and Higgins
had his knee injured before the team
had fairly started it's winning streak.
The Saints came home with record
to be proud of and the fanatics are
hardly fair to the team when they
complain of the three lost in a row to
Louisville. The Saints lost their first
game of the trip to Columbus, but after
that they pulled two in row from the
Columbus team, took a straight series
of three games from the Mud Hens and
annother series of four games from
Indianapolis. This gave them a record
of one defeat against seven straight
wins.
Considering this showing the series
dropped to the Colonies should not
arouse the fanatics. These last defeats
were merely punched. Had the Saints
spread the four lost on the trip through
the four towns of the trip. even the
few who now complain would be ex-
pressing surprise at the good road
work of the st. Paul team.
Back at home the Saints will play
series with Columbus. Toledo. Indian
apolis and Louisville, and will then
go to Kansas City and Milwaukee.

Strathcona swung around the first mark

RUDE WADDELLi BREAKS
WITH CONNIE MACK
Manager of Athletics at Last Tires Of
Antics of George Edward.


PHILADELPHIA, Pa, Aug. 1o-"Rube"
Waddell. the star pitcher of the Athletics
whose work brought the. championship Of
the American league to Philadelphia last
season, has been suspended by his club.
Waddell has deserted his bride, has
been threatened with arrest, and is now
tending bar in a saloon. ~
This escapade is the first that has
brought a serious break between the err
ratio left-hander and Manager Connie
Mack, but at present, at least, it looks
as if he would be of no further service
to the Athletics in this seasons race His
absence may put them out of the running
and leave the pennant to Boston.
The actions of the great pitcher, pecu-
liar as they are. have led some to be-
lieve that he has begun an early cam
paign as a press agent for the show with
which he has been advertised to appear
as a star the coming winter.
Connie Mack is quoted as saying that
he will not take Waddell back under any
circumstances
