with could always rely. Hard Luck Joe" was another name that the fans attached to him, for he had the faculty of getting hurt about as frequently as was possible, but he was game to the core and often continued in the game under conditions that would have driv- en almost any other man to the hos- pital. Sugden did not begin playing professional baseball until after he was 21, some five or six years later than the average player. But his splendid headwork and his ability soon made him a valuable man and he has been in the big leagues for nearly a dozen years. When Comiskey came to Chicago in 1900, Joe was with the St. Paul team, moved here. and played at the south side park for a couple of seasons. Then he was traded to Me- Aleer in St. Louis, where he has been ever since. Mac" has depended on Joe as his steady worker ever since he took hold of the management of the Browns, for aside from Sugden the Browns have been weakest behind the bat. With the passing of Sugden to the minors practically the last of that old guard who learned to bunt by switch ing the bat and dropping the ball with the handle. will have gone from the big leagues. When the bunt was first permitted that manner of turning the trick was largely utilized, because 1t was believed the handle of the bat dropped the ball deader than the large end. Time has changed this. however, and with few exceptions the bat has never been switched. Joe was one of the very last. In St. Louis and here in Chicago Sugden was known as a pinch hitter" and nearly every pitch CT in the American league feared him when he was sent to bat at a crisis. Though never a heavy batter on the season, Sugden could come nearer than almost any other player in the Ameri- can league to cracking out safe hit when fl was needed most. St. Louis fans knew this and he was a great fayorite at sportsman's park, where he will be sadly missed this season.

like a football player in a scrimmage, is the thrilling picture that is present. ed almost every minute of play in the new game. The game. generally speak ing, consists in driving a huge leather ball six feet in diameter to goal at either end of the field. by forcing the horses to plunge into 1t, rolling it along the ground. The sport Is played fin an arena 70 feet wide and l2o feet long. The space Is inclosed with . fence as high as the ball. Two teams of four men each, make up the oppos- ing lines of the match. A referee and A timer are on the ground. When play is called two men of each team line up five yards from the center. leaving two men to guard the goal. The ref cree rolls the ball from the side line. and when 1t gets to the center of the field he blows a shrill whistle to call time. The horsemen plunge at the sphere. each side. of course. attempt ing to get the advantage of the start Of. for If one is quicker than the other

WANTS MANCHURIA.
Russia, Driven Out by War,
 Trying to Gain Foothold.
MOVE MAY AID AMERICAN TRADE.
Chinese Province Said to Re Rich In Farm Lands, Forests and Mineral Produets-Csar's Emissaries
 Are Working.

WASHINGTON, March s. - Russia has in view a plan to establish a per manent foothold in northern Manchu- ria and has made Vladivostok the port Of entry in view of that purpose. there by offsetting the loss of Dalny and Port Arthur. according to an official re- port made public at the state depart ment. which report recently reached Washington from China.
 The report expresses the belief that this will rebound to the development of American trade and will result in a great curtaIlment Of the importance of Shanghai as distributing point.
 The report made public at the de partment says:
 since the conclusion of peace be- tween Russia and Japan there has been much speculation in the foreign community of Shanghai as to the fu- ture opportunity for trade and deyel- opment in Manchuria. and therefore the negotiations between Japan and China on the one hand and the dlplo- matic moves of Russia at Peking have been watched with the closest atten- ton.
 "As soon as the way to vladivostok was open there ensued rush of steamers from Shanghai, Tsingtsc. chefu. Tientsin. Nsgasaki. Kobe and Yokohama. and as a consequence the immediate demand for merchandise wss soon satisfied. Then came the riots both at ylsdivostok and Harbin. followed by the ice closing of the port of entry. These discouraging factors drove many of the traders away and left a market which. while well sup oiled with such Injuries as gre indi- cated for the Russians. Is still demand Ins staples for the natives.

THE DIAMOND
MONEY IN USE
Eight Thousand Dollars Already Invested For W aterbury-Two
 Local Players.

That Waterbury will have the best kind of sports of every variety Is now an assured fact. The corpora tion which will take care of the base ball interests will also have charge of the various other sports which will be carried on out on the new field. The capital stock of the new athletic association is $1O,000 and ey- cry dollar of it has been paid in. $SO00 is already invested and the whole amount will be in the works before the baseball season opens. The management has not asked for a dol- lar outside of the regular stockhold- CTS but the request is made of those who would like to aid the association to purchase one of the season tickets. These tickets will be sold for $2O.00 each and as there are only fifty to be sold it is not unlikely that they will be all taken before the first game is played. These tickets are transfer able also, so that your whole family or friends can use them at different games. TO show just what the Waterbury Athletic corporation is going to do in the line of sports the following ex- plains itself very thoroughly:
 That the purposes of the above cor poration are as follows: to establish and maintain baseball, football, hook l ey, track athletic and roller polo | teams; to engage in the business of
 organizing and conducting all sports and sporting events of every kind; tf manage or hold contests of skill, ea
 durance or speed between man ol
 beast of every nature whatsoever; ft
 hold agricultural fairs or give exnin.
 tions for the display of animals, works
 of art or mechanical skill: all products of the soil, etc, and to further eh
 gage in any business necessary iol
 the, proper and successful perfor nance thereof.

WRESTLING
WILL GO SOME
Roach and Lacy Will Make Their Meeting One Long to Be
 Remembered.

The next big wrestling event of the waning season will be held in the SimOnsville Athletic club rooms on Thursday evening, March 18th, and Manager Joe Lawlor has prepared a card for that tournament which will fill the hearts of the sports with glee. It is for a worlds championship too and this will make it all the more in- teresting.
 Jack Roach has never been given a good tryout with man in his own class and this will be his opportunity to show just what he can do. Lacy of Adams, Massachusetts, holds the championship of the world at 12S pounds. He has never been thrown by any man in the world at his weight. Bobby Somerville, who was down here the other day says that Lacy is the best man he ever saw on the mat at the weight he wrestles, 12S pounds. He says that no man yet has placed his shoulders to the mat and that is saying a good deal. Jack Roach tackled him once before right in his own town but after three hours of tough work with the advan- tage on neither mans side the match was called draw.
 Roach says there will be winner | this time just as sure as his name is | Roach. He wants to win that match | in the worst way and he will be back ed to do it. He wants to remember
 one thing though. that Lacy has nev-
 CT been in a match yet that he has
 not been backed for hundreds of dol l lars and that will be the case this l time. l.+.'

AMERICAN CONSULATE DESTROYED.
Worst Cyclone Ever Experienced In the Pacific Causes Immense Loss of Life-FIve Buildings Washed
 Away In Tahiti.

SAN FRANCISCO, March 5. The most destructive cyclone ever experi- enced in the Society and Tuamotu is- lands is reported here to have destroy ed several of them.
 The damage in Tahiti is estimated at $1,O00OOO, and presumably q similar amount of property was destroyed oil the Tuamotu islands. The city of Pa peite was inundated. and about sev. enty-five buildings were destroyed, in- cluding the American consulate and the French government building. The shipping in the harbor of Papeite es- capped injury owing to the direction of the wind, but fears are entertained for vessels which were cruising near the Tuamotu islands.
 It is feared that there has been heavy loss of life in the lagoons of the Tuamotu islands, though the death of the guardian of the quarantine sta ton in Papeite is the only fatality yet reported.
 The schooner Papelte was submerg- ed for an hour near Anas, in the Tua- motu group. Her captain. Philip Mi chaelli. estimated that the waves were sixty-fve feet high. It was impossi- ble to see twenty feet away at o'clock in the daytime. The sailors had to be lashed to the vessel.
 Mir. Marcadi, a French resident at Fanaran. one of the Tuamotu group. abandoned the place in small cutter after all the government buildings and dwelling houses and the Catholic church had been swept away. Many of the natives climbed cocoanut trees. and others put out to sea in small hoats

BIG MONEY USED
The Turf Burned Up Whole Lot of the
 Long Green.

The remarkable prosperity of the turf in America last season, even with the sport barred in several of the western states, is shown in the advance sheets of Goodwin's Official Turf Guide. The amount of money distributed to horsemen in the Uni ted States and Canada. exclusive of the value of cups and plates, was xJ.411.9J2. Had there been racing at Chicago and St Louis on the old lines probably S1,OO0,OOO would have been added 10 this amount. According to fhe figures compiled for the Guide. the Brighton Beach Racing association, in twenty-eight days of sport, gave away x325. .4g5. which included $2J,SDO in second and third moneys not guaran- teed.
