Bristol Prohibitionists Aroused Over

fact that the Tennessee legislature con-
venes next week the Anti-Saloon League
and other persons here interested in the
question of temperance are considering
what they shall ask of the legislature In
the way of restricting or doing away with
the whisky traffic. There are twenty-five
saloons in the town. and during the holt
days they did an enormous jug trade In
vading the dry districts. where no saloons
have existed since the Adams law became
effective in Tennessee and the Mann law
went into operation in Virginia. 1t is not
improbable that an extension of the Adams
law to Bristol, Tenn, will be asked. How
ever number of the anti-saloon people

an election in both Bristols at the same

STOVEY AND EVANS
GREAT OUTFIELDERS

Base ball may be faster game in some
particulars than it was in the sos or '90s,
but it is undeniably true that in two i'm
portant particulars-base running and re-
turning the ball from the outfield-it has
slowed up woefully. There is no Harry
Stovey, no Jakey Evans in the game now.
Many present-day fans remember Stovey
of the old Athletics. Not quite SO many
recall Evans of the old Cleveland team,
when the elder Wesley, Charles Bulkley
and George w. Howe We're the owners.
Season after season Evans, who played in
right field, held the record for outfield as
sists. and always a big percentage of these
assists were made in throwing batterS out
at first Jakey knew the batters of that
period better than any Embellishments
ing, possibly. Fielder Jones, Jack Nc
day and Laid for them with an intuition
of where the ball would be that was mar
velous. Nowadays it happens once or
twice a season that batter is thrown out
at first by the right fielder after an ap-
parently safe hit. Evans once made three
such assists in a single series. And all the
time. from the beginning to the end of the
season, he was whipping the ball to Sec
ond, third and home with a speed and &C
curacy that has never been equaled or ap-
preached. Harry Stovey scored 153 runs in
the American Association in 1889. He led
all the fast base runners of the Brother
hood in 1890. He was the champion base
runner of the world in 1887. 1888 and 1889.
He stole second base almost as easily as
sacrifice hit. No. it's mighty fast game
we in these days of peace, but there
are no Jake EvanSes nor Harry StoveyS in
the game today.

YOUNG PLAYERS
LACK THE NERVE

Says Pat Donovan For years I have
been watching the striplings that come to
the big league from the minor ranks.
Their entry to fast company is most prom
Using. They signalize their first week or
so by accepting spectacular chances and
their manager again halls the coming of
another Hughey Jennings or another Bill
Lange. Then. of sudden, they fall down
on the easiest snaps and their nerves re-
ceive such a shock that they never re-
cover. Their brilliant beginning and pa
thetic finish are due to but one thing-a
lack of nerve. A little conceit or assur-
ance would make these youngsters go the
distance. There's the case of Gene De
Montreville. When he went to Pittsburg
in "a, under Connie Mack, he was the
freshest youngster that ever came into the
major ranks. and that doesn't bar Mertes
When Connie told Gene that another
years training in the minors might make
a ball player out of him. what do you sup
pose the chesty little chap said to Connie :?
That's all right about sending me back to
the minors. but l have graduated from the
primary school and I'll be back in the big
league push and make some of you old
haS-beens hustle was the parting shot
that Gene gave Connie If other sample
lots who fell by the wayside had this
nerve. assurance conceit. or whatever
you call it, recruits would be numerous
enough for the big league"

out of his players. The National League
has several bench managers, and it will be
interesting to note their methods and COM
pare them to devices for winning as en-
ployed in the American League where
seven managers will be in position to roar
at the umpire and at opposing pitchers.
Not all of the American League team
directors will be playing managers: Joe
Cantillon has put his playing days behind
him. but he still puts on a uniform. So
does Jimmy McAleer. He can still play
COOL game of ball, for he practices an hour
or two every morning during the season.
Hughey Jennings will get into game occa-
sionally for Detroit The playing managers
are Griffith, Lajoie, Chick Stahl and Fielder
Jones.
The National League will have Lut three
playing managers, though five of them still
affect base ball toys. Pat Donovan seldom
gets in game nowadays, and McGraW
rarely does more than take a turn at bat or
a place in the outfield for an inning once or
twice a season. Fred Tenney of Boston,
Fred Clarke of Pittsburg and Frank Chance
of Chicago are the only playing managers
in the old league. Hanlon, Murray and Nc
Closkey are never seen in uniform

Mr. Iippy was five down at the end Of the

this point. however. the westerner rallied.
winning every remaining hole but the thir-
ty-fifth, which was halved. and tying the
score on the thirty-fifth green. The thirty
seventh hole was halved in par four. Fem-
ing met with trouble at the thirty-eighth
by a poor brassie and an approach into the
sandpit. giving Lippy two for victory on
easy putt.

Care Of "Gordon's Tomb

An attempt is being made to raise
permanent endowment fund of $4,000 to
maintain THE Jerusalem Garden Tomb"
property, just outside the city walls, which
Is believed to be the true burial place of
the Savior. 1t is Familiarity called Cor
don's Tomb" because the late Gen.
Charles Gordon wrote several articles to
prove that 1t was the tomb Of Joseph of
Arimathaea, and "the place where the
Lord lay" The opinion of Gen Gordon
attracted much attention in England. Miss
Louise Hope of London purchased the
property in 1894 and placed it In trust in
order as the document reads, that the
garden and tomb may be kept sacred as a
quiet spot and preserved on the one hand
from dissertation. and on the other hand
from superstitious uses" She also con-
tributed a sum of money to clear up the
place and put 1t in excellent order She
built wall around 1t, erected a keepers
lodge and laid out garden at her own ex-
pense. Since her death the cost Of main
tenance, which Is not more than four or
five hundred dollars year, has been paid
by subscriptions from a few people in
England. An admission fee Of one shilling
Is charged at the gate, from which a small
sum is realized. In 1901 there were S73
visitors: in 1903. $50: in 1904, when there
were several thousand American and Eng
lish delegates to a Sunday school conven-
ton in Jerusalem, 2.190 tickets were col

were 1.479. But not more than $3.50 a
year can be depended upon from that
source. Therefore, 1t Is desired to raise

BAD MIX-UP OVER
NEXT SEASONS SCHEDULE

CHICAGO. January friction which
may have a serious effect upon the rela-
tons of the American and National
Leagues has arisen over the question of
playing schedules for 1907 Resenting
what he terms "unwarranted effrontery"
on the part of the National Leagues
schedule committee in attempting to die
tate to the American League not only the
outline but the details of the latters
schedule for next season, President John
son has notified President Pullam of
the National League that he would have
no further dealings with the committee
appointed by him until the meetings of the
national commission next week could in
terpret the terms of the national agree
ment regarding the duties of the joint
schedule committees.
Mr.. Johnson also wrote Chairman Her
mann of the national committee to the
effect that he would bring the matter up
for decision at the aforesaid meeting in
Cincinnati.
The direct cause of the threatened breach
was the receipt by the American League
executive of a complete draft of National
League schedule. with the suggestion that
the American League draft a schedule to
conform to it.
ut was our idea," said President john
son, that the national agreement clause

the season. l have notified Messrs Pull

Interpretation of the powers of such
schedule committee before we take any
further steps in the matter.
Hitherto Mr.. Pulliam and myself have
prepared the playing schedule jointly, but
the work has been hampered in a measure
by the National Leagues action in fixing
arbitrarily the dates of the openings and
the length of the season, which we believe
to be in violation of the spirit of the ma
tonal agreement.
''If. this is not so, at least ii Is a serious
violation of that agreement for one league
to draft it's schedule without comforting
with the other and expect the other to
accept the Ieavings.
MIR. Murphy is not chairman of the Ma
tional Leagues schedule committee, and
his action in the matter is a piece of I'M
warranted effrontery. / have written Mr..
PuIiam and Mr.. Hermann that l consider
1t in that light and desire to ascertain if
it is the sense of the national committee
and of the National League as a whole
that both leagues shall not have equal
voice in arranging the playing schedules.
That has been my opinion hitherto, and it
will be necessary to have the situation de-
fined before proceeding further
President Johnson also stated it as his
opinion that the action of the American
Association on Sunday in declaring Mike
Kelly of Minnea polls free agent, eligible
to play wherever he chose, was not suf-
fcent to make that player eligible.

BIG HANDICAP
STAKES CLOSE TOMORROW

NEW YORK, January 1-Entries will
close tomorrow at midnight for the Brook
lyn, Suburban and Brighton handicaps and
many other valuable stakes. aggregating
more than 500, 600 The secretaries of tho
Brooklyn and Coney Island Jockey clubs
and the Brighton Beach Racing Association
were busy yesterday receiving and listing
the early nominations. Judging from those
already received, the entries will break all
records for numbers. The dearth Of good
horses in the three-year-old and upward
division in 1906 will lead many owners and
trainers to make entries of horses which
under ordinary circumstances would be re-
served for selling stakes.
The full list of entries for the big spring
handicaps will not be known for a week or
ten days. The rules provide that postmarks
showing the entry has been mailed prior to
midnight of January 2 are sufficient to
make the nomination valid A partial list
may be announced on Friday or Saturday,
however.
New Year day is the official birthday Of
all thoroughbredS, and the yearlings of yes
terday are two-year-olds today. Some train
ers have been waiting patiently to send
their youngsters to the post. and the oppor-
tunity has now come.
The third race at New Orleans today is
for two ear-olds of 1907. and no less than
sixteen baby racers are sent out as prob
able starters. They are rather well-bred

MANAGERS WILL
BE IN UNIFORM

One noteworthy feature of the next base
ball campaign is the fact that all of the
American League teams except one will be
led by a manager in uniform. Connie
Mack. who has won two championships as

Every year the fans debate on the COM
parative strength of the two big leagues
and if a vote We're taken the American
League probably would win. 1t is hard to
make comparisons of players, but the meth
DDS of mana gers more easily dissected
1t may be that a bench manager is capable
