COMMISSIONERS DOWN
ALOYSIUS CLUB TEAM

The game between the Commissioners
and Aloysius Club, played az the Ameri-
can League Park this morning, proved
an interesting one from the standpoint
Of the umpire and his decisions.
Umpire Thorp, who started the game,
retired in the sixth after he had called
IT. The teams finished the game with
another umpire after much delay The
final score was . 10 1 in favor Of the
Commissioners.
There is doubt if the game would
have counted if the contest had been
played in any one OF the amateur leagues
OF the city. The trouble arose in the
sixth inning when Rapp was at the bat
fer the Commissioners. Nenable the
safely. Rapp was next and he tried 10
get a pass or dinky dump, the ball
rolling down toward third. Mccarthy
attempted 70 field the sphere, but in
stead OF picking it up he knocked II
from the base line to foul ground, claim
ing then the ball was foul when he
touched it.
Rapp ran to first as Thorp called the
ball fair The Alovsius aggregation
refused 20 play il Thorp was allowed
to continue. Thorp had previously rem
dered a decision at second that did not
meet with the approval of the Capital
leaguers. and this last decision of his
was too much. The managers OF che
two teams talked the matter over for
some time without agreement Thorp
held his watch while the dispute was
going on, and at the expiration OF the
fwenty minutes allowed he called the
game. The crowd refused TO go. and
many OF the spectators went 70 the
managers OF the teams and said they
wanted play or their money back.
The managers realized that they could
not refund ths money so they decided
10 get Umpire Belts OF the Church
League 10 finish the game. Belts start

ARTFUL DOOG|NG
GREAT SYSONBY?!
Actions of Owners Would
Indicate That.
Is UNDER THE WEATHER
At Least, That Is Report Given Out
by Trainer Rogers-Remarkable
Winnings.

NEW YORK. Sept. A persistent
rumor was in circulation at the track
yesterday that II. p. Whitney's Artful
will not meet Sysonby in TIE Annual
Champion stakes. two miles and a
quarter. to be run next Saturday. and
that II is probable that she will rot hook
up in any race with the Keene champion
this year.
According to several turf sharps,
Trainer John w. Rogers gave out the
Information yesterday morning that
Artful was considerably under the
weather and had not been aele TO stand
training. with the result that IL would
be impossible to have her fit and ready
for next Saturdays race While il
would be perhaps unfair to say that
Artful has so far lodged race with
Syscnby. il is n fact that she has been
kept out of several engagements which
the Keene colt has filled, and that when
there was a chance for a match race
between these crack three-year-olds at
Brighton Beach last July the Whitney
mare was shipped forthwith to Sara
toga.
Remarkable Victories.
Sysonby's remarkable victories in all
hts races have served to earn for him
the title of champion. He has met all
corners and has beaten them with con-
summate ease. His triumph Saturday
came fully up TO the expectations of
the critics, who predicted a practical
walk-over for him.
So far this year Sysonby has won
these races and amounts for Mr.. keeue:
Metropolitan Handicap, s., $50; Tidal
Stakes, Sl4,500; Commonwealth Handi-
- 80 =
Iroquois Stakes, $3.50; Brighton Derby.
S1f, $50; Great Republic Stakes, s3S, 465
Century Stakes, sl5.Oap. Total, s12O,s3o.
Sysonby has other valuable engage
ments, which he will I'LL. barring acct
dents. His success will place the Keene
stable far in advance of all other win
ming owners for the year. Before Satur-
days race the colt drew a large crowd
of admirers in the paddock. Mr.. Keene
who has been i'll recently. came 20 the
track for the first time in a number of
weeks to see Sysonby run. and was
warmly congratulated on the victory.

A Poor Mixer.


The Chicago daily papers not long
ago published a statement relative to
the analysis of milk drawn from va
riOus cows on the Gurler dairy farm at
De Kalb. Illinois. Assistant State
Food Commissioner r. NJ. Patterson OF
Chicago MIXED q Holstein COW, and
had her milk analysed. It showed
2.S per cent fat, very low percent
age. This was published along with
the analyses of the other samples of
milk taken, and of course the con-
trast put the i'olstein breed in a bad
light. Chicago people took up the agi-
tation and some even suggested the
passing of law prohibiting the sale
of milk from holstein cows. We learn
however from Mr.. Glover, dairy field
man of the University of Illinois, that
the daily papers refrained from pub
fishing very important sequel to the
tests. After MIR. Patterson had drawn

Wyandot:es

reached form and color which were
quite distinctive. The male favored

dotte there came the Golden strain,
the advent of which made it necessary
to select a distinguishing name for the
other; thus we have for the two va
rieties the names Silver-Laced Wyan-
dottes and Golden-Laced Wyandottes.
Conditions of form and color have
changed from time to time. In the
