Brother Healey of the Miller Ga
zette passed through on Wednesday
morning enroute to Mitchell.
VIM. Stewart and Frank Otto
were delegates from the local lodge
here to the Log Rolling at Mitchell
this week.
Monday morning Mrs Dave Brown
received the sad word that her SON.
in-law, VIM. Lunsford had died sud
denly at Minot. North Dakota. Mrs
Brown and her three sons. LATE, lex
and Wellie, Immediately started for
that place, hoping to reach there in
time for the funeral. From later
advices we learn that MIR Lunsford
took his own life in a hotel at Minot.
He had recently lost his position as
salesman for a lumber company
and he had been in poor health
for some time, and in a fit of
dependency committed the rash
act. 1t is probable that worry over
his affairs bad brought on mental de-
rangement. Mr. Lunsford, familiar
lily known as Billy" is well known
in this town, he having been in
charge of a lumber yard here for d
number of years. In the SOS he set.
tied on a claim north of town, SO he
is particularly we'll known in that
vicinity.

The biggest man in base ball to-
day is Hugh Jennings, the resource
full manager Of the Detroit Ameri-
can league team.
Breaking into baseballs greatest
organization last spring and taking
command of squad of second dk
visioners, he has, through his per-
sonality. smoothed the wrinkles of
discomfort, overcome every fault of
his men, human and Jase ball, han
died his material with tact and
skill, and landed at the top Of the
heap.
Another thing has Jennings &C.
cOmplished. He has transformed
Detroit into a big league base ball
town.
Yes. Hugh Jennings is goth CEN
7tury wonder-worker and no mis-
take, and it's. hats of everybody to
the red-headed package of ginger
tfzz, the genius who has trans
formed the base bail map as Ma
pOleon did that of Europe.
Look over the list of base ball
managers and find man who could
have wrought the Peaceful Valley
sort Of cOntentment which prevails
in the Tiger camp today, from the
snarling. scrappin outfit which
last spring punched each others
heads and threatened to leave the
team disrupted and broken.
1t was only few months ago,
after Ty Cobb and Charlie Schmidt
had mixed in rough and tumble,
that Jennings was credited with a
desire to rid himself of the Geor-
gia whirlwind. He was deluged
with offers for COBB. that many

Play the Tigers to win the
worlds championship from the
Cubs.
Jennings and his men are the
one best bet right now.
They ought to win as easy or
easier than the White Sox did last
season in that remarkable see-saw,
ding-dong finish.
Pretty bold statement? Yes, 1t
is; but facts warrant it.
Conditions are just about the
same as they were last fall when
the SOx and Cubs met to decide
the honor of the baseball world.
Then the Sox had finished a
whirlwind campaign. snatching the
American league pennant about a
week before the end OF the sea-
son.
This year. after fine race all
the way, the Tigers entered the
stretch neck and neck with the
Athletics. The latter were upon
their own door yard The Tigers
were in unlriendly territory, yet
they won the pennant on sheer
nerve.
And the close of the season was
staring them in the face when
they turned the trick.
They went right down to the last
days at a breakneck clip, Just as
the White Sox did last season.
And as the championship follows
upon the heels of the pennant
races, the Tigers will go into the
series on the fourth gear.
They will retain their fighting
spirit They will be in the best OF
condition They will be able to
maintain the pace they learned
from that master manager, Hugh
Jennings. because 1t will simply be
"a continuation of their everyday
speed.
Against thi sthe National league
champions. fine team that 1t is, will
go into the games after months

PICKS TIGERS TO WIN

loafing, just as it did last fall
The Cubs cinched the pennant
long ago. Since that time the ne
cessity for top speed has not ex-
listed and the Cubs have eased up.
They may think they have been
travelling along at the pace they
hit before the flag was won, but
they have not.
1t is a fact that once a race is
won, the winner let's up. 1t is true
of horses. 1t is true of men. 1t is
true of every phase of life. And
because they have been loafing and
have not been forced to their fast
est, the Cubs will go into those
championship games just a trifile
stale. A bit Of the edge has been
knocked off during the last few
weeks and this will turn the tide
in favor of the American leaguers.
Frank Chance takes grand ag-
gregation into the fight. OF this
there is no question. But Jennings
leads the scrappiest, gamest bunch
of baseball winners that ever bat
tied for pennant
That team never knows when it
Is beaten. 1t comes from behind
in the face of long odds and wins
when least expected. 1t plays the
game up to the minute and a little
in advance, all the time. No OPP
portunity is overlooked.
But chiefly the advantage is with
the American leaguers because
they are on their toes. on edge and
accustomed to the dizzy pace,
whereas their opponents have won
SO easily that they will not be as
fit for the grueling battles.

BY TOMMY BlJRNS

The fight fans and critics seem
TO be giving Jim Jeffries lot of
attention these days. The last to
who stated point blank that the
"retired one" is broke.
All the big fellow says in return
Is that he Is sore at Delaney.
fancy there Is something in the
wind If Billy Delaney-who Is as
Scute a manager as any pug could
chose--thinks he can drive jeff
Into the king with AL Kaufman,
then he Is about as far of his cal
culations as when he considered
Jack O'Brien soft snap sfor hts
protege.
Delaney will not get purse for
such match. Every enthusiastic
tan wants to see the big chap per-
form once more, but wants to see
q match for the championship and
a good battle at the same time.
And Kaufman Is several streets
away from any sort of class yet
| have written several times. tell
Ing the sort OF scrapper Mike
Schreck was, hut no one took
much notice. Most fans seemed
TO believe my statements were the
outcome of jealousy.
But the public has seen that
knew what | was saying. His fight
with Kaufman proved that | had
sized up Scbreck correctly. The
scrap also revealed that neither
man Is rough house fighter.
II Jim Jeffries intends to enter
the magic circle for a final try he
must come in with me. Icant see
where any promoter with his wits
about him can find big purse for
any other heavyweight contest at
present.

Jack Johnson has put himself
out of the running by refusing to
come. West and sign, when San
Francisco and Los Angeles promo
tors were ready to hang up a good
purse. He preferred to remain in
the East and beat such a man as
Sailor Burke.
In the meantime there can be no
question but JefYries needs money.
Perhaps not as badly as Delaney
puts 1t, but badly enough for man
OF Jim's caliber
Is 1t true that the big fellow was
frightened by the terrific smash |
landed on O'Brien during our first
contest in Los Angeles?
IL 1t true that he Is ready to en-.
ter the ring with a dub to get the
money?
If he needs dollars let him come
out like man and say he can lick
me. stand better chance with
him than Corbett stood with John
