a wild tumble of conflicting thoughts.
The idea came TO him that he must be
dreaming-that soon he would awaken
amid the familiar surroundings Of
Johnson's News. To convince himself
that this was not so, he reviewed the
history of the preceding twenty-four
hours. At that time yesterday he was
going to Fleet street with capital of
ninepence to buy 4 quire of newspa-
pers. He remembered where he had
sold each of the five copies. where ne
bought a penny bun and how he came
to lose his stock and ge- cuffed into
the bargain for rescuing a girl from an
overturning carriage.
Then his mind reverted to his fixed
resolve to hang himself and his stolid

the dream started or was the whole

WILL BALDWIN PLANT
BE CONSTRUCTED IN TIME
LOCAL SPORTS WANT TO KNOW
ABOUT NEW TRACK
George Rose, Who Is Supposed to
Have Interest in Proposed
Venture, On Way Home
to Oversee Work

viii or will not the Baldwin race track
be built in time to accommodate the run
ners for the winter season of 1907? The
sports of Los Angeles fell for lot of
bull last year in regard to the Arcadia
course, and they are asking this question
just out of natural curiosity
Everybody out around "Lucky's" do
main contends that it's go this time,
and that the track will be started at
once. A new manager has been elected
to take Glen Creveling's place, and he
has assured everyone interested that
teams and men will be on the ground
early this morning. Indeed, the outfit is
supposed to be at the scene right now
but they will not start to work until camp
has been pitched and the necessary ar
rangements in regard to stabling teams
and other things of like nature have been
attended to.
1t is almost certainty that there will
be no racing at Ascot park, but no move
to tear down the grandstands and stables
has been made. George Rose is supposed
to be in the deal to construct plant at
Arcadia, and he is at present on his way
from Europe to take an active hand in
the work. Whether new manager will
be appointed is not known.

MuesYs HARD LUCK

NEW YORK. Aug. 12.-Manager Nc
Graw tonight found further disappoint-
ment in a telegram from President Pull
liam of the league, informing the boss
of the Giants that his presence would
not be desired on the diamond until Sat
urday. The three days suspension is the
result of a brief talk McGraw had with
Umpire KLEIN during the Chicago series,
In which the scrappy manager delivered
himself of a few remarks on the science
of judging plays. McGraw said tonight
I'm sorry that the suspension comes
at this time when we have four import
ant games to play in two days That
man Klein certainly made some rancid de-
cisions against us, and 1 couldn't help
telling him about them. OF course,
might have used language which was as
full of errors as Klems decisions but
really 1 couldn't stand his decisions"

MILWAUKEE, BOWLER is
GIVEN AN APPOINTMENT
JOHN REUKEMA MENTIONED FOR
PLACE ON BOARD
Harmonious Rules Will Be Object of
Meeting Between Representa-
tives of Three Bowling
Associations

MILWAUKEE,, Wis, Aug. 12,-John
Reukema, the we'll known local bowler
yesterday received notification from Garry
Hermann, president of the American
Bowling congress, that he had been ap-
pointed member of a committee of three
to revise the constitution of the national
fingerball organization. The other mem
bers of the committee are Charles Wilson
of Chicago and AL Geiger of Cincinnati,
The appointment of Milwaukee man to
the committee is the result of the fight
made by local representatives at the ma
tional congress in st. Louis last spring
game The regulations are sadly lacking
and are due for a general overhauling
which the committee will attempt to do.
The meeting of the committee will be
held in Cincinnati on September 10, on
which date representatives of the Cana
dian Bowling association and the National
Bowling association, the eastern organ
ization, will be present. 1t is planned to
have the delegates of the three organiza-
lions meet and draw up a set of rules for
the general government of the game IN
America. In the past there has been con-
flict after conflict between the different
associations, and it will be the purpose of
the meeting to do away with the petty
wars as much as possible by arranging
non -conf1icting congresses and general
bowling rules.
The appointment of a Milwaukee man
on the committee is considered by local
bowlers as quite an honor, and it shows
Herrmann's sagacity as a politician, for 1t
is limited that he will run for president
of the A. B. c. again in 1908 and that he
wants the support of the Cream City
knights.

SAN FRANCISCO WRITER
HAS DOPE ON DINGES
w. o. McGeehan Writes Clever Little
Jingle in Chronicle in Regard
to Burns, Britt, Cans
and johnson

w. o. Mcclellan, who handles the
Sport Debris column in the San Fran
cisco Chronicle, is certainly there with
the clever typewriter this week, and
comes through with a neat little Jingle
on the way the two dinges, Johnson and
Cans, are going to treat their white
brothers of the squared circle
The local sports have only one objec-
ton to Mr.. McGeehan's touching little
poem, and that is because he calls Los
Angeles a siX-nickel town. Still we don't
notice it down here, so if it affects them
up around the bay Los Angeles has not
great cause to holler.
And here is McGeehan's contribution:
Niger IN THE WoODPILE
CAS- sung by the Lily White Brothers. Britt
and Burns.)
Jimmy Britt was softly snoozing
In his sunny Fillmore flats;
He was resting soft and easy
Since he fractured Nelson's Stats.
He was seeing lovely visions
In that after dinner dream,
But he woke and for cover
When he heard somebody scream:
CHORUS.
There's a niger in the woodpie.
Who has got his lamps on you.
There's black man in the doorway
And sure thing bugaboo.
There's a Niger in the woodpie.
And he says he will not go
He is after one Chances Edward
So it's time for us to blow
Tommy Burns sitting talking,
On his flve-bar garden fence,
With some more Los Angeenos
In the Burg of Thirty Cents
He was telling how it happened
That he put the bloomer out,
But he changed the conversation
When he heard somebody shout:
CHORUS.
There's a niger in the woodpile
Who's got his lamps on you;
There's black man in the doorway,
And sure thing bugaboo
There's niger in the woodpile,
And great big black one too
Little Arthur's the warpath.
He's a-coming, Tom skidoo

vim and ginger. Your eye was on the
ball, you seemed to spring forward to
meet it, Now you spring back"
"That's Just the cause of it, cap" the

whats the cause of it?"
"The backward spring"
Whereupon the players looked re-
lieYed and the game was resumed.
