Many Novel Things Occurred in Memphis Town Mul1aney Put Off Diamond
 Score 8 to !.

Charley Babb and his bunch of whirling Dervishes by beating the Climbers out eight to seven yes terday have the distinction of being out of three from Mnllaney's men.
 Never will Mullaney. his aggrega- tion or the fans who heard Jack Hig- gins break the sad news forget that freakish game was filled with more different propositions than life in surance agent can make in a week To begin with the Memphis bleachers started and Higgins kept the crowd interested with stories of thrilling deeds by the Climbers and Egyptians who made Rube Waddeil look like a two spot when 1t comes to fighting fires. IA
 Then when the game started things of divers kinds began happening in punches It only took until 3he fourth Breitenstein would look far better and have a more beneficial effect if he watched the contest from the players bench. In the last half of the same inning Clark. the Babbite twirler be- a nice point with Umpire Buckley, and the youthful umps gave him the "23" sign Suggs taknig his place. A few spaSms further along in the comedy just the way Buckley saw 1t and the big manager of the Climbers was ask ed to vaoate the premises, Bill Haus- sn taking his place on first Not very long after that the trend of events brought things to the point where JJohn Maiarky had to take the woods, the fourth man to get out of the game.

Dusty Miller will introduce a new pitcher in tomorrows game here in the person of Arthur Goodwin, recently of Montgomery Miller has every reas. on for knowing the capacity of C. od- wyn as he was with the Memphis team the past two seasons and pitched good ball. He Is also rated as a good sticker and heady player.
 Handy is back in the game and will appear at third tomorrow afternoon.
 It Is hardly reasonable to believe but Tommy Gettinger. the ''old man of the game, formerly with Mobile and now with Jackson, is accredited with getting d home run yesterday.
 The first game of every series on the homo ground is known as ladies' day and it is expected there will be a large number of them in the grand stand tomorrow afternoon.

BIC AUDIENCES
SAW THE WILD
WEST COMPANY

Both yesterday afternoon and last
evening big crowds attended the Walter
l.. Main circus and Col. Cummins' Wild
West show on the grounds opposite Mar
ragansett park.
The program included horseback stunts
OF the ranchmen. a snappy drill by
troupe OF female Zouaves, thrilling feats
scene and a reproduction of the famo..-
Gen. Clusters massacre at the battle OF
Little Big Horn. The cowboys and Cow
girls" gave an exhibition OF horseman-
ship seldom surpassed and the trained
elephants performance was most cred
liable one. Seldom is proficiency In
trained animals manifested TO so great
a degree. One OF their tricks, which as
tonished all in the audience, was per-
formed when the trainer let a big ele-
phant lie down over him. So carefully
was this done that not even the mans
coat was wrinkled.
The bareback riding by the redskins
was no less marvellous than the, feats
performed by the Cossacks and cowboys
and a novel feature was the quadrille
performed by eight equestrians.
The old Deadwood coach had gone only
a short distance when a band OF Indians,
in hiding, surrounded IL. squad OF
cowboys suddenly emerged from behind
a supposed mountain and a lively fight
ensued, in which the air was filed with
deafening shots. The occupants, how
ever. were landed in safety at their des-
tination.
Miss Annie Schaffer the only woman
who rides a bucking horse around the
credit and demonstrated TO the audience
that she is a very clever horsewoman,
and after the big show there was high
class vaudeville presented.

BRIGHTON TRACK IN
JOCKEY CLUB NOW

At the next meeting OF the Jockey club
stewards. Aug. Q. the Brighton Beach
Racing association will be taken into the
fold as a recognized association" This
means that. with the Coney Island Jockey
club. the Westchester Racing association
and the Brooklyn Racing association and
the Brooklyn Jockey club. which are the
only other clubs recognized" the Brigh-
ton track will be factor In turf anairs
and no longer subsidiary course.
Although no member OF the Brighton
association is a steward or a member of
the Jockey club. the little track by the
sea will, by the ed of some member who
is a steward. have voice In turf mat
ters from now on. This will be OF great
benefit to the track, as heretofore II had
10 take, like a dog, any bone that the
stewards choose TO throw.
One OF the benefits that will accrue to
Il by the change is that II will not have
TO apply to the Jockey club for a license
10 race. That will be granted without
application. The club will also be well
favored In the matter OF dates.
The fact that the stewards chose tho
Brighton track instead OF the Saratoga
association caused comment in turf circles
yesterday II was the opinion of we'll In
formed turfmen that Brighton was select
ed because II is a local course.
Another reason for its selection Is that
some day Brighton may be asked 10 hold
meeting throughout the summer
months by this move the Jockey club
officials, II is said. hope 10 cheek any de-
mands for racing dates during Auglst
that may be made by Mr. James Eltier,
the owner OF the Empire City track

OF the conflict. Patrolman Buckley claims
that a soldier from Fort Adams began
pushing another soldier against him.
whereupon the officer struck out with his
night stick. landing on the soldiers head

For few minutes II looked as II fur
ther trouble would ensue, as other soldiers
wanted to go TO their comrades assist
ance. but the police kept the crowd back
and the soldier with blood flowing from
his wound, was taken to the police sta
ton.
He gave hir -ame as Private Smith Of
the Ninety seventh company coast ar

was not warranted. Other than the loss
OF considerable blood the soldier was not
seriously hurt.
