AT OLD SAuGI1s.

Boston, Mass, Aug 2O.-There was world of excitement at Old Saugus track yesterday afternoon. The spec tators thought Havre James should win the 3:19 pace with Kaplan, and American Boy, big favorite for the 2:24 trot, was distanced after win ming two heats
 Then, at the conclusion of the races, the judges fined Frank Slavin and ]. B. McGuinness, both of Provi- dence, R. l., each $400 under the rule relating to the use of profane lam guage to track officials. Both men fined are owners of the mare Annabel w., which raced in the PIT trot. The judges removed Slayin after the first heat, substituting Tom Marsh, which started the argument.
 John Kinney of Spring Mills, N. J., slaughtered the talent by winning the 2:24 trot with Belle C., after q series of heats hard to decide. Day Book was $10O against $50.
Waterbury evening Democrat., 1904-08-20

Pitcher Tate Crumley, the former Georgetown college twirler, who turned professional, signing with the Indianapolis team, has been signed by Detroit.
 Eight straight wins for Holyoke. The departure of Vickers was not such q loss after all.
 Dropping flies is getting to be a habit with Joe Connor. He let an- other slip through his fingers yester. day. making the fourth in one week.
 George Lachance was the first American league player to have 1000 putouts. He turned the 1000 mark several days ago.
 Both Mccormick and Osteen have slumped in stick work since getting into fast company. Their batting ay- erages are respectively .1S6 and .19S.
 Heiney Batch has failed to connect but twice in nineteen games. If the Champs had two or three more like Heiney they would be giving O'Rourke and Danaher a hard tussle.
 It is pretty even thing as to who is the best base stealer in the league. Billy Yale, Harry Moves, Joe Connor and Tommy Bannon are closely match ed for the honor Terry Rogers is fast and Karns seldom gets a chance on the bases.
 DO you know that double headers have tendency to make ball players dopy?" was the query put by Captain Tom Corcoran in discussing the Red slip-up. "That is absolutely true. feel all in after two games of ball under hot sun"
 Captain Clarke of >Pittsfield says the Giants haven't won the pennant- not by jugful. But with Mike Don- lin added to the crew they ought to win by barrelful.--Chicago Record Herald.
 Rube Waddell has struck out 211 men. Plank comes next with 14S, while Chesbro is third with 140. Moore leads the Cleveland pitchers in strike outs with 125. Donahue is sec ond with 93, while Bernhardt has famed 81 and Joss B.
 Bridgeport has just six men who can preside In the box. Besides the regular pitchers--Wade, Allen, New man and McCulough-both Foster and O'Dell can be depended upon to help out on occasions. Just twice as many as Hartford can show.
 Pat O'Connor is about all in. With Il couple of double-headers every week and with no change catcher, Pat has been forced to work overtime. This is the reason why his backstop work does not show the spirit 1t did several weeks ago Manager O'Neil, however, hates to break up his present infieid and Joe Connor will probably be kept at third for the rest of the season If Ed Connors gets back into the game, which is not likely, Joe will do some of the catching.

NOW A SHAMROCK NV.
Sir Thomas Lipton Decides to Have
 It Built on the Clyde.

London, Aug 20.--It is understood that Sir Thomas Lipton has decided to have Shamrock " built on the clyde. The design is left to the dis erection of the builders, but Sir Thom- as would prefer that they follow the models of the early Shamrocks.
 In an interview yesterday Sir Thomas Upton said:
 Ut may be simple stubbornness on my part, but all my life I have had a constitutional objection to admitting that I was beaten, however strong the evidence might be against me.
 Shamrock I made good fight, Shamrock H sailed the closest race ever sailed in cup racing. Shamrock III was unfortunate. Considering that all three went against us, I can only regard them as interesting pre- liminaries and look to the fourth to put Ip the real fight.
 As regards change in the rule of measurement, our designers seem to think it would add to our chances of success. At the same time I may say that my own preference would be en- tirely in favor of begging away on the lines I started the fight upon"

HURON HANDICAP.
Fort Hunter Won the Feature stSlxe
 Rt Saratoga.


 SARATOGA, N. Y, Aug. 20.-Fort Hunter again ran to his true form when he won the Huron handicap, the stake feature of the card, by length and half from St Valentine, who beat Spring by length and a half Spring made the pace for three-quarters of a mile. Then Fort Hunter, who had been close up, passed him and was never headed. Pulsus ran third all the way to the stretch.
 Memories and Gold Money, outsiders, beat the fayorite, Mineola, in the first. Mineola led to the stretch, but did not have the necessary speed and was beaten by a head by Gold Money, who in turn was three-quarters of length behind Memories
 Lady Potentate, fayorite in the sec ond, won handllX by two lengths. Brooklynite, who was pacemaker the last of the Journey, was passed in the fast furlong by Homestead.
 Teacress, favorite, had plenty of speed at the end, but won the third event by only half length. Danseuse ran second all the way, but was passed In the stretch by Thirty third
 Another favorite, Dreamer, won tho fifth without effort by two lengths from Cigar LigAter, who was three lengths ahead of Derry.
