ALL AMERICAN STANDING
ICE PLANT OPERATORS FEW
Scarcely One Engineer in Twenty Can Fulfl1 Requirements of
 the Position

Knowledge of the operation of arti- f1cial ice plants is becoming & valu- able asset to the electrician who seeks to advance to the position of manager of lighting plant south of Mason and Dixon's line. On the authority of one capitalist it is easier to get 20 engineers posted in electricity than one who can operate an ice plant. He says the value of cold storage plants and the necessity for their existence in the south are being slowly grasped and these offer a still larger field for growth and addition to both ice and electric plants. The economy of the dual operation of the two lines in one plant Is emphasized in this part of the country, where the long summer eyen- ings are spent out of doors and little burden placed on the lighting plant, the power of which may be readily used in the refrigerating plant He cites one case in which, with the addi- ton of an oi1er and fireman to the regular force of 300 kw alternating plant 100 tons of ice were added to the daily product.

WHITE MICE CAUSE PANIC.
Women at Atlantic City Flee in Cone fusion from the Harmless
 Little Rodents.

Willie Fitzgerald, a newsboy of AeH lantic City, N. J., was carrying six white mice in 9 box down the board walk one day recently, when 8 rolling chair hit him, causing him to drop the box. The lid flew open and out jumped the mice. The walk was crowded with hundreda of men, women and children, and tha feminine contingent scattered in all di- rections. Neither direction nor the manner of going was considered, the women giving vent to heartrendins yells.
 Miss Eda Lintmarl, of Lancaster. Pas. who learned much about athletics while at Vassar, made bound for the railin& on the board walk, cleared it and landed on the beach. Mr. and Mrs. John Fl. Ivans, who came from Pittsburg on their honeymoon, were rudely separated. Mrs. Ivans made off down the board walk, and was only found after three hours search.
 An aged invalid woman, who was be< ing wheeled down the board walk in a rolling chair, forgot her ailments, gavd leap from the carriage and ran up an adjacent avenue. Another woman, whos 1t is estimated, weighed close to 260 pounds, slipped as she started to rum and landed with all her weight on ona of the mice.

H Howell, of New York;; in 1898 by six seconds. Scholes is z2 years of age, and first became prouni- nent in rowing circles in 1902, when he defeated C. S., Titus on the Harlem prior to the pair leaving for Henley. This was the first year C.. s. Kelly won the diamonds. At the time the English critics were unanimous in the future possibilities of Scholes, but said at that time he was rough and lacked finish. Scholes last year won the as- sociation single vase at the national regatta at Worcester, Mass, and the doubles" with Smith. Scholes eomes of 8 family of athletes. He and his brother, Jack Scholes, who was the an- ateur featherweight champion of Cana da and Great Britain. are the sons ol John F. Scholes, at one time champion heavyweight boxer Of Canada.

Ths father when he boxed with Mace was considered one of the best in the business.

VAST TRAVEL IN LONDON.
Estimated That 500, ,ooo, 900 separ- ate Journeys Are Made by Pas
 sengers Annually.

There are 5000 miles of railway in greater London, and it is estimated that something like 500 ,Ooo, 900 separate jour- neys are made by passengers annually The number of journeys on an average week day is over 100000. An idea of the vehicular traffic in the streets may be gathered from the statement that in 12 hours 16,054 vehicles of all kinds passed particular spot in Piccadilly, and a full service of 690 buses pass the Bank of England in an hour. The number of passengers carried by the London trans in a year is over 360, 0,000,- GOO. A census taken of the number of pedestrians who crossed over the London bridge on certain day showed that they totaled 16,9o2, and in 191s hours during a day in April last year 248,015 people crossed the roadways at the bank.

GAELIC ATHLETIC MEET.
Flanagan Beats Worlds Record FOx
 Hammer Throwing.

Hammer Throwing.
 NEW YORK, Aug. 1.--In the pres ence of fully 1000 spectators who at. tended the Gaelic athletic tournament for the benefit of the Christian Broth CTS Training college at C!ontarf, Dub lin, Ireland, held at Celtic park, Long Island City, John J. Flanagan of the Greater New York Irish Athletic asso- citation increased his worlds sixteen pound hammer throwing record from I'll feet inches to 173 feet. He also threw the fifty-six pound weight a distance of thirty-six feet four inches, which is within five inches of his worlds record with that weight. These two performances were record ed in the all around weight throwing contest, which also included throwing the discus and putting the sixteen pound shot. The points scored were five for first, three for second and one for third place in each of the four events, and Flanagan won with a total of fourteen points.
 Many of the best sprinters and dis tance runners from local and outside clubs competed In the track contests. M. Sheppard of Brown Preparatory school, Philadelphia, won the 1000 yards run handicap very cIeverly, and his schoolmate, James Hepburn, finish ed good second to J. Ledwoch, local athlete, in the 600 yards run for novices. Harvey Cohn of the Greater New York Athletic association easily took first honors in the one and one half mile run handicap from the twen- ty yard mark in minutes 2-5 sec onds, and W. c. Bailey of the Mohawk Athletic club won the three mile run handicap from tbe 250 yard mark in 15 minutes B 2-5 seconds.
 Myer Prinstein, formerly of Syra- cuse university and now of the Great CT New York Irish Athletic associa- ton, ran close fourth in the one-quar- ter mile run, starting from scratch, and also distinguished himself in the broad jump handicap. clearing twenty three feet three inches, which only gave him third place in that event as he was conceding twenty-six inches to D. Frank, the winner, and twelve inches to J. F. Weber, who got the second prize.

yesterday would have clinched the pennant for the Brooklyns but it was not to be. The errors of the Brooklyn players and the good pitching Of the North End twirler, with the star play ing of Stone on first turned the tide of battle toward the North Enders. It was a bitterly fought contest and there was no let up until that last fatal hit which sent the North Ends home to victory. Mike Madden tried to cheer on his team to victory but some how or other he could not get that enthusiasm into them they us- ually possess. Even Johnny Kelly, who went into the box in the eight inning could not stem the tide of de feat and was forced to see his com- rades and himself carry a defeat over to the Brooklyn rooms. The final score was 12 to Il.

MERRIMACs WERE LcKY.

Shortly after o'clock the Merrimacs and Pastimes faced one another OH the lower diamond. Riley was taken sick and another umpire was substi- tuted. The game hadn't progressed very far when the Pastimes began to complain of his decisions. The um- pire, no doubt. did his best and gave his decisions honestly enough, bat he was way off on some of them and, consequently, he had lots of trouble during the game.
 The Pastimes took the lead and it was seen that quite number of new men had been added to the West end nine. Hodge of the Oakvilles was holding down third in tFitz" Hen nebry's place, who was sick. and Franks and Lachance, both of Water vile nine, were playing lefttield and shortstop; Baker was in the box, while SpelIman caught.
 It was nip and tuck between the two teams up to the sixth inning, when the Pastimes forged ahead of te East end CTS.
 Tn the first of the seventh the East l enders managed to score one more run which made the score to 6 in the Pastimes favor
 In the ninth a decision by the um-
 pire ill sending Kenny to 1st nettled l the Pastimes and it looked as if deci- l sion was q wrong one. A new umpire I was chosen but the Merrimacs were 1 out to win. Sal Slavin drove Kenny | in and the score was tied. Hennebry
 muffed an easy one back of second, ] in his anxiety to make a good play and l Slavinl came in with what proved the
 winning run. The Pastimes made des- perate efforts to overcome that lead of l one run but George Byrnes, who had
 been substituted as pitcher in the 8th ! inning, was steady and held them well in hand to the finish. The score wa s to ' in favor of the Merrimacs.

and play games at all Of the large cities visited, which will include cities of Australia and Europe and possibly Asia The start will be made from Chicago about October 10. From here the teams will travel west. Stops may be made at Kansas City, Omaha and Denver, but San Francisco will be the western goal. From San Francisco the teams will go to Honolulu, and then to Australia. The direct route of travel after the stop in Australia has not beep determined, but 1t is probable that be- fore they return the cubs and giants will have played in almost every Eu- ropean city of any consequence and in some parts of Africa and Asia. Ten men from each team will comprise the list of players. Tn addition to these McGraw, Selee, Brush, Hart and sew eral baseball officials will make the journey Most of the men are enthu siastic over the plans, as the trip will offer them an excellent opportunity to tsee the world It is said that there are few of the players who do not particularly favor the jaunt. These are the married members Of the teams who do not wish to be away from their families for so long time. The only objection from the fans is that the trip would be likely to make the ball tossers grow stale as result of too much playing. Six months steady work on the diamond, 1t is believed, is about all that 8 player can stand with out losing some of the color of the game. Selee believes there is no dan ger of staleness, as the plans are not to play every day. The trip has been patterned after the successful tour that A. c. Spalding headed In 1888 to cele- brate Chicago's victory in the pennant race. Those who represented Chicago on that memorable trip were A. c. An son, Mark Sullivan, Tommy Burns, John Penney, Jimmy" Ryan. Fred Pfeffer, Tom Daly, Bob" Petit, Eddy Williamson and Marc Baldwin. The all-American team which opposed them consisted of Ward. Manning, Wood, Earl, Crane, Healy, Carroll, Brown and Fogarty.

ITY AMATEUR STANDING.
CITY AMATEUR NOTES.

The Brooklyns still have good lead for the pennant but another slip lrp and q win by either of the three next teams will mean a whole lot.
 Umpire Bill Kiely was taken i'll af- ter the first game yesterday and was forced to retire. Some of the Merri- macs believe they were lucky he was i'll.
 The games next Sunday will be watched with interest because it may cause another shift in the wheel which runs the pennant flag. The games yesterday could not be beaten for interest and excitement.
 The whole trouble with the teams in the league Is that they start too late to exert themselves. Brooklyn is really the only team that has been putting up steady battle from the beginning of the season.
 Two good first basemen were ab- sent from the league yesterday Hills and Joe Kelly was absent from teams.
 Fritz Henebry couldn't play Sunday because of an injured finger. But he was Ou luG SIOuuuS. w udI WdS LuC matter with the Pastime manage ment? In the last of the ninth in ming with men on third and second they had a good chance to tie the score. Why didn't they substitute Fritz and give him chance at the bat4
 Thousands of people attend the games every Sunday A large num- Der of them contribute something to- ward the support of the league, but a still larger number refuse to give any financial aid. They all seem to enjoy the games and thoroughly appreciate the sport. They've witnessed Sun day baseball for the last five or six years without being asked to contrib ute anything and now when the league is under such a big expense l it seems that they ought to give something in return for the pleasure they get out of the game.

THE HILLS WON.

The first game scheduled was be- tween the Washington Hills and St Josephs. It started shortly after ; o'clock and finished at 4. Only eight innings mad been played when the time limit was up.
 new and Wetcome face was seen on the diamond yesterday when Um- plre Riley of Naugatuck took his posi- non and called Play ball. It was Rlley's hrst appearance as umpire this year and needless to say, gave satis- faction and none of his occasions were disputed.
 Tom Byrne twisted for the Saints and Slocum for the Hills. A few new men appeared ill the Saints lineup, among whom was George Gaffney. the catcher. This was Gamney.s first ap. pearance this year and he caught the game in his old time form. Captain Connor failed to appear yesterday and the saints were slightly Weakenei Ly n1s absence. Moran held down third instead, and played q fine game in that position.
 The Hills, too, were weakened by the absence Of George Mulligan. Joe Bagley was substituted in Mulligan's $ place on first yesterday and played q good game.
 Tor q time 1t looked as though ,he s->ints were going to carry off the vic tory as they led the Hills up to the middle part of the game. But after the fifth inning the Hills took brace and battered in enough runs to give them | safe lead and one that the Saints failed to overcome The score was 6 to 2.

REJUvENATED CONSOLIDATED.

REJUVENATED CONSOLIDATED.
 Charley Brennan was out with his rejuvenated Consolidated team on Sat urday and right off the reel he made things hum down Stamford way. Joe Began has team down there which he considers the best ever but he was up against the real thing Saturday. The only disagreeable feature of the visit of the team was the fact that the Waterbury boys did not get all the money that was promised them by our old friend, Joe Began. Joe was, con- sidered a pretty good fellow when he played on the Bridgeport teams but he must have changed considerably if the tale told by the Consolidated team is correct and there is no reason to doubt 1t. Waterbury was guaranteed so much for the trip. The train was one half hour late in getting to Stamford, which was no fault of the Waterbury boys. Yet after the game was over about twelve and one-half per cent of the guarantee was deducted because they came late.\ It was well fought game at that and resulted in close score. There were many individual plays which were features on both sides Slavin. NcNellis, Burgess, Mulligan, Dwyer and Cleary made some star plays which helped along the victory. The score:
