MAY
CHALLENGE.
Understood That johnny Will
Challenge Tommy Murphy Who
Defeatea Spike Robson.

Johnny Dwyer, the fast scrapper of
this city, may fight Tommy Murphy,
Johnny oliveras-protege, in the near
future, according to an announce
mefrt made at thesringside at the Ma
tional A. c. in Philadelphia Monday
night, when Murphy had the better
of Spike Robson. the English cham
pion, in their second battle.
Although Robson outboxed Muir
ply in six fast rounds, the Harlem
boy outfought the Briton, inasmuch
as he did him more damage than
Robson did to him. For that reason
the decision, had II been rendered
should have gone to Murphy. This
result is quite different from that OF
the first meeting between these two
boys a few weeks ago. when Robson
stopped Murphy before the prescrlb-
ed six rounds. This fact and the
peculiar tactics of the Briton, who
seemed more d%esirous of tantalizing
Murphy than of beating him, made
some look on the contest with sus-
picion.
The men goxed at catch-weights,
and while Murphy looked to be a
trife heavier of the two, Robson
seemed to be trained very fine-if
anything, too fine. After it had been
announced that Johnny Dryer and
Fred Welch were both DESTROYS of
meeting the winner the contest start

the game, which are always considered
the property of the local club. He
then attempted forcibly to search the

GAME
FORFEITED.
Barring Of Umpire tombstone
Causes New York 10 Forfeit
10 ChiCagOs.

NEW YORK, Aug. 8. - Something
unique In baseball occurred here when
the game which was TO have been play
ed as the third of the present series
between the New York and Chicago
National league clubs did not take
place on the Polo grounds. Each club
claims that the other forfeited. SO 1t
Is I'D to the national directors to
straighten out matters, and a lengthy
wrangle is bound to ensue. So far as
the National league cal chronicle the
unplayed game at present. Chicago
has been officially declared the winner,
8 to 0, by forfeit.
At the preceding game. the second
of the series, there was a good deal of
i'll feeling shown on both sides on ac-
count OF decisions rendered by Umpire
tombstone. When tombstone and Ems
lie, the umpires assigned by President
Pulliam, arrived at the entrance to the
Polo grounds tombstone was refused
admittance by the police, and Emsiie,
who accompanied him, declined to Of
fciate SO long as his associate was
not allowed to perform his official
function. tombstone then declared the
game forfeited by New York to Chica-
go, basing his decision on the local
clubs refusal to admit him to the
grounds. r
The crowd, which numbered about
11,000, wondered at the delay and yell
ed PLAY ball!' repeatedly while Man
ayers McGraw and Chance held a con-
sultation. McGraw called upon his
utility man, Strang. to Ofiiciate as UNI
pire. Chance refused to appoint a man
from his team to act In conjunction
with Strang, saying that the game had
been forfeited under the rules. Presi-
dent Charles Murphy of the Chicago
club then took a hand in the much
mixed proceedings, and after he had
spoken a few words to Chance the.
Chicago players left the grounds.
A few minutes later an announcer
jumped from the grand stand and said
that he had been requested by the New
York club to make the following state
ment: iY. b,d3,ta
Umpire tombstone was barred from
these grounds bye Police Inspector
Sweeney. who feared that the presence
of tombstone might ineite to a riot.
Umpire Johnstone has declared the
game forfeited by New York to Chica-
go, 8 to o." nrig
Later on the announcer again adj
dressed the crowd which by this time
was scattered over the diamond and
outfield, saying. II, am instructed by
Manager McGraw to say that he hay
ing sent Strang out as an umpire and
the Chicago team having ignored his
calling on them to play ball. the game
under the rules is forfeited by Strang
to New York, 0 to- 0. and 1.-THE New
York club will protest the claim Of the
visiting club" a,l
Rain checks had been Issued prior to
the game. and the patrons Of the cluk
were informed that these checks would
be good for any other game on these
grounds during the present season.
Police Inspector Sweeney, when seen
later on, said that he had not taken
the initiative in preventing Umpire
tombstone from entering the grounds
and added that it was at the request
of the management of the New York
club that he had acted as he did.

In The FIELD OF SPORTS
%
Fishing



Joseph Oschwald and son left
Newark Monday in their motor boat
Pauline and fished at Sewaren. They
caught sixty-eight weakfsh in a few
hours.
Howard Tappen, who for many
years catered to fishermen at Boyn-l
ton Beach, is nc longer connected
with that resort. He isl now with r.
o. Acker, at Sewaren.i iAcker's bust
ness has increased so much recently
that the addition of Happens feet of
boats will enable both of them to
look after their patrons with com
fort.
Here is a good tip: Weakflsh of
the large yellow fin variety are feed
ing In the upper part of the Raritan
river. Row up with the tide when
it starts to run in. Anchor opposite
the dock about two miles from the
railroad bridge on the Kearny flats,
Fish with a float and bait shedder
crabs. AS the river is very muddy
from the rain, the incoming tide only
can be fished. Throw an eel line
while weakfishing, as the cells are
plentiful.
George Hadel and Charles Smell,

urday and caught fifty-fve weakfsh
and a few small bluefish. The hand
line fishermen are thankful to the
pound net owners for removing a
few of the nets from the water at
that point, as by so doing the fish
are allowed to come through. No
matter what object the pound own
ers have in doing it, we must be

removal of a few nets in Sandy Hook
Bay. Keansburg has been on the
man for years, but nobody ever
caught fish there by hook and line
before. May it prosper as a fishing
resort for no village along the coast
is better situated than it for that
purpose. Perhaps the residents will
vote for the Asbury Park Fishing
from that county. He will run on an
anti-pound net platform.
1t vas a very lucky thing for an
unknown swimmer that members of
the Newark Tuesday club decided to
catch just one more fish Saturday af-
ternoon in Raritan bay. e. f. Field
ing, w. Weston, H. Bergfels. and l..
Bergfels, of the club, were fishing off
Laurence Harbor with Captain Trav
Bloodgood, and after catching thirty
two very large weakfish. pulled up
anchor for home. On the way in
Captain Bloodgood saw a rowboat
drifting toward Sandy Hook and
turned the club launch about after it.
The fishermen were very much sur
prised on getting near to the boat to
find a nude man clinging to the bow.
Captain Blodgood hauled him aboard
the launch and landed him on shore.
He would give no account of his ac-
lions other than that he had become
tired when swimming and could not
climb into the boat. The fish caught
by the party weighed from two tn
three pounds, and made their catch
in a few hours. Captain Bloodgood,
who is a boat owner at ~Cheesequake
creek, is known all along the shore as
a life saver, and the members of HI.

Served Time Well.

1t is a matter of note to chronicle
the efficiency and faithfulness of
Lancaster's rural mail carriers.
We have CLEANED a few facts con
corning the four routes first es-
tablished:
On route 1 Geo. Garside made the
rounds for some time, followed by
Geo. Gibbs. Then Ben Suer took
hold and in five years lost but one
day-Nov. 21st In five years, a
fine record.
On route James Treloar was the
first carrier followed by VIM.
Humphrey with a faithful record,
then w. L. Gelbach and recently
Fred Cox
On route 8 D. II. Starr was the
first carrier, followed by Reuben
Garner, who is as cool mail
carrier as Uncle Sam has in the
service.
John Mankel was the first man

The Square Deal IN News.

One of the difficult things, to
explain, outside of a newspaper
office, is why news and matters of
public interest cannot be suppressed
to suit those who have personal
reasons for not wanting news to be
published. IF one man who be-
lieves he has slight pull" gets ar
rested, for example, he does not
understand why 1t hurts news
paper to suppress the fact IN his
particular case. He does not realize
that everyone else who conflicts
with the law feels the same way.
The fact is, there is scarcely any
item of news that appears that
somebody would not like to have
suppressed. The newspaper that
started out to accommodate every
thing in this respect would print no
news at all. The only way in
which any newspaper can hope to
succeed is by treating everybody
alike, old and young, rich and poor.
In a smaller city it is more diff
cult to make people realize this, but
it is as true in a small town as in
a large one. No newspaper any
where can succeed unless it gives
everyone square deal, and there
can be no square deal unless the
news is printed without fear or
favor.
Advertisers should be the first to
real re this. The advertiser who
tries to exclude news from the
paper he patron1zes detracts just SO
much from the interest with which
