Bisbee daily review., 1906-08-02

Whateyr else may be said of "Slats Davis, this much is true: He has the corrct idea of the umpire's relation to the game. and he insists on living up to it. He draws no distinction when players get disorderly, but quickly ad' ministers rebuke. He was somewhat unruly player himself, and he knows the ilk thoroughly and never lets the outbreak get beyond the premonltory symptoms. The effect this has on the game is that with Davis in charge the players hustle. and the patrons see 3 ball game. If all umpires were like him in this respect the lining of play CTS would be at an end. It is experi euce with the weddings that lead the maicontents to stir up strife with a strong man like Davis. "Slats" may not know everything, but he does know what he says goes while the game is in progress, and he may al ways feel sure welcome awaits him from the Omaha public.

GER MAN CHAM ION RACE HORSE MAY COME ID AMERICA
George Walker, Trainer, Says
 He Is Anxious to Bring E 'iFels" Over Here.


 MEMPHIS, August | l. = George Walker. the American trainer whc prepared Fels, winner of the German Derby and the unbeaten champion three-year old of the German turf, will make an effort to bring the German .conqueror to America to meet the best of the all-aged division in the strug. gles of 1907. This information is con, veyed in letter just received from Walker by relatives in this city.
 Walker is enthusiastic over Fels, now in his three-year old career. The colt won more than 100000 marks last season and to date has helped place Walker in an easy lead in point of money won. The winnings of the stable of Weinberg Bros, owners of Fels, total over 100000 marks at the writing of the letter, late in June. This represents an amount over 100,. 900 marks ahead of any other owner and easily displaces the record made by Walker last season at correspond. ing time of year. #t..

FORMER B|SBEE MAN IS CHALLENGED ID
 AUTO RACE
Fred c. Fenner and Shettler to Race From Los Angeles to T Old Baldy

Under the heading For Blood and Ducats," the Los Angeles Times has the following account of an anto race growing out of challenge sent out by Fred c. Fenner for an automobile race from Les Angeles to Fenner's mines near the summit of Old Baldy one of the highest peaks in the Sierra Madre range of southern California Fenner wiR be remembered as a for mer resident of Bisbee. for 8 time in the life insurance business and later engaged in mining. He has also been general manager of the Wolverine & Arizona mine near Don Luis:
 "A race to Mount Baldy for both blood and ducats is assured between Leon T. Shettler and F. C. Fenner. Mir. Fenner owns the Big Horn mine a. the head of the San Gabriel river. and uses a 1905 White to make the trip. Recently he challenged any ma chine in Los Angeles to a race from the city to the mine.
 "Mr. Shettler took him up. but i'm posed the condition that the cars should not take on water, oil or gas oliRe during the race. Mir. FeDner de- clined to race under the conditions, but repeated his former challenge. NIT. Shettler now comes back, and puts his Rec against the White, without conditions except that the race take place on August 25.
 "Mr. Shettler has sent to the Times a letter in which he says: |.
 Referring to the controversy which has arisen between F. c. Fenner and myself relative to whether his White Steamer can make better time to, his mine on Mt Badly than my Reo light touring car, I will say that the con ditions imposed upon him in my reply Io his challenge were made merely for the purpose of having him admit to the public that he could not make the trip from Los Angeles to his mine without refilling either his water or his gasoline tank. Now, that he has admitted oyer his own signature, stand ready to race him.
 As it seems to suit him better, will not impose any conditions what ever upon him nor allow him to do so upon me, except that the cars are to csrry two passengers, whose combined weight must be over 325 pounds.

Clerigo won the Peter handicap, car rying 130 pounds. Winnie O'Connor is doing the bulk of the riding and is easily leading the jockey list.
 If Mir. Weinberg will permit it, I would like to have Fels measure strides with the best in America next season." writes Walker. He Is the best horse ever trained. We are try
