They got it out of athletics and they
got it in cash,
You might start in today with the
fine comb of inspection and rake the
entire fitting world, II how many
amateurs do you think you would find?
Not enough to make up a company to
fight a dozen of toads. Professionalism
has taken hold of this branch of sport,
as 1t has of all branches, Tor the simple
reaso that 1t is not human nature to
strive to forge yourself ahead in any
less unless recompense is the goal. It's
human nature to acquire something
tangible which can be used for ones
self betterment, and boxers today who
tell you they are amateurs ought to
finish their story and say that they
are not boxers, but think they are. OF
all the tomfoolery that this A. A. u.
Is trying to hand out none is so bla-
family brazen as the one that they are
fostering amateurism in the athletic
world. The man who would ask you
to prove this assertion would be simply
the man who wants to find out what
you know, so that he al go and
peddle 1t about to show that he is not
a b~ushleaguer in the athletic world.
Every now and then you will hear
of some athlete being suspended. It's
laughable. Take this branch of bas-
ketball, where the teams are supposed
to be under the protection of the
A. A. u. How many of the players
refuse to take money after the game?
Why. the first one who did would be
docketed for a private room in the
'diZzy house, There may be anna
tours in the athletic world, but If you
are from Missouri you will find 1t hard
for anyone to show you. That's why
every now and then the A. A. u. gets
busy and some poor victim gets black
listed. Why. the officers of the A. A. U.
get money; why shouldn't the men
who are supposed to support it get
some?

SHELTERS BEATEN
OUT BY CHAMPIONS.

Jersey City tried hard to keep in sec
ond place yesterday. but they fell down
before the champion Toronto team.
Rudolph was on the mound for the
Canadian team, while Lafitte served up
for the Skeeters. AS far as hits went,
the Jersey City wonder had it on his
rival, allowing but six. while eight We're
registered off Rudolph. Jersey fought
game and the tieing run was IL cut
off at the plate in the ninth inning by a
throw of Mike Kelly.
The Shelters hit we'll, but not wisely,
while the few slaps that the Canucks
got came when they brought runners
over the rubber. In the meanwhile the
$500 fans in Hoboken Fat the Shelters
Sunday grounds, wondered If their hated
rivals, the Tigers. would do stunts to
Baltimore. If they looked at h stand
ing this morning they al see.
Down at Rocky Point, Providence, the
Grays and the Beavers went to a tie in
a short game.

Locals Put Hook on Orioles in
Seventh Inning Before
Leaving.
BY KIDDO.

AS a sort of a getaway treat to the
local fans our fast-going Tigers put
the hook on the Orioles yesterday at
Weidenmayer's Park, smiled broadly
when they saw Jersey City getting
bumped by that band of ice-handling
Canucks, n then climbed into Sec
ond place and aboard the Lehigh sleep
ers for Buffalo.
Tom Hughes, the mar with the 4-11-
A movement in the box, won his third
straight game for the Tigers, or rather
the Tigers landed it for him. S~tallings
and his jungle boys got going pretty
fast on Saturday when they cleaned up
the Toronto team, young Mueller
pitching his second game and getting
away with 1t nicely. Yesterday they
kept up their speed and pushed Mr..
McCloskey to the top of the chimney
in the seventh inning. Before Mac got
down to earth again the Tigers had
brought across six nice tallies, straight
hitting bringing about this nice addl-
ton to the two already gathered.
Jack Dunn only smiled grimly when
the official scorer slapped the gong six
times. Jack had visions of the same
thing, only one worse, at Baltimore on
saturday, when the Broncos registered
seven runs In the eighth.
When they hit Jack Dunn they hit
him hard, and the we defeats made
the lead of the Orioles a little shaky,
while our Tiger is on the second runs
smiling broadly.
There is one thing certain. n that
is the local team played as good an ex-
hibition of first division ball as any
team that has appeared on our ball
yard. They hit hard and fielded well.

TIGERS CLIMB INTO SECOND PLACE;
BUFFALO READY TO GREET NEWARK

Mailing in twelve chances at shortstop
made one error. The error was on the
first chance he had. Thereafter the To-
cal shortstop put up a grand game,
making all kinds of stops and throws
and covering an acre of grass and
ground at the short station. In fact
Mahling's and brakes fielding yester-
day was two of the best features of the
game. Ducky got six putouts in left
field, some of them very difficult ones.
Drake got a couple of hits and stole
a base.
Everybody hit but Engle. The big
fellow was at the mercy of McCloskey.
Baltimore has a good fighting team,
but they were simply up against it
yesterday. 1t was their first game
away from Baltimore. Hall was really
a hole yesterday in short field, several
drives getting by the big fellow.

1t seems to be distinctively character
istic of the human race to pay homage
to the leaders in the various things that
go to make up the doings of this world.
Everybody wants to be with the winner.
1t Is so in politics and it is more so In
the sporting sphere. No matter h
the individual faults of a man may be
let him reach the top rung of his line
as an athlete and the crowd will yell
his praise. You see this every day in
the national pastime. Unpopular play
ers are jeered when they make a bad
play, but let them pull off something to
the liking of the same criticisers and
the opposite results.
Popularity soon wanes when the idol
IS. being smashed, and a new eader Is
always looked for. The men OF a Few
years ago whose names were in every
ones mouth are today forgotten and the
new champs are the real central figures.
After all. fame Is simply wasting, and
while 1t blooms 1t is like the magnolia
bush, good to look on, but when the
storms OF defeat come along the bios
SONS are blown off and nothing remains
but the bare limbs, which have no at
traction. 1t is this very thought which
has caused champions of amateur
events to turn to the professional ranks.
Athletes know, as we all do, that you
can't pay your board bill with fame.
The trolley conductor won't take 1t for
a nickel's worth on the car, n you
have to have the real cash.
Amateurs Arc Scarce.
No doubt you often wonder why run
ners and others win bother their heads
travelling from one city to another APP
parently for medals II they win. But /
guess you have not been foolish enough
to think that medals are the only things
they get in return for their services.
Name any of the men I have mentioned
above, and you win find that every one
of them who had a proper kind of a
head is well fixed.

men in the various departments of sports. About men
who have gained fame and wealth from their high posi-
tions in the athletic world. For a moment the question
had to be considered carefully. for we have SO many good
men in the various sections of the sporting game that it
is no easy matter to tell of-handed just what they are
doing and what is going to become of them. You have

SOURCE OF ALL REAL POWER.
Inherent Capabilities the Foundation
of Commanding Position.

One hears it said that the rich COM
pei the poor to work. To this Clemen-
ceau has most wisely replied: The rich
do not compel the poor to work; ma
ture compels them to work. Work,
the search for food, is the universal
law of nature, imperatively laid on all,
young and old, male and female alike:
and lasting the whole lifetime. All
that the rich do is to show the poor
what to work at; and this they do,
not because they are rich, for rich
fool cannot do it, but because they
have the twofold power of seeing
what is needed to be done and co-or-
dinating the powers to others to get
it done. The poorest man in the coun-
try, if he have these two powers, will
soon become rich 1t is not capital
that makes power effective; it is in
herent power that makes capital ef-
fective. The richest men among US
to-day began with no capital but their
inherent power; and what We call
capital is merely the register of that
power, the evidence that the power
has been exerted; but the inherent
power is the real thing. Whatever
form the state may have, we are. and
always shall be, dependent on those
who have the twofold power of seeing
what is to be done and of co-ordinat-
ing workers to do it-Harper's Weekly.

Bretano arose and going to another
portion of the house slipped and fell,
upsetting a kerosene lamp, which ex-
ploded and set her clothing afire. The
tramp heard her screams and beat
the flames out with his hands. He
then extinguished the burning carpet.
In the morning the stranger left, re-
fusing to accept reward or even

Constable Arrests Mayor.

Seaford, Del, has municipal mud.
die that would do for a comic opera
plot. Mayor Robinson and Constable
Steen could have the comedy leads
and townsfolk, bailiffs, process serv-
ers and aldermen could make up the
chorus. The constable has been ow-
ing the mayor money on trade bill
and recently the mayor tried to collect
the account. So wroth was the con-
stable at the impertinence of his
honor that he had the mayor arrested
for doing a collecting business without
license. The mayor protested and
the constable pointed to his own ordi-
nance recently passed, and quoted law
and wound up by arresting the chief
executive and haling him before a
magistrate. The mayor was put un-
der 800 bonds for breaking his own
ordinance in trying to collect his own
bill, while the constable now for the
time being, is triumphant.

Within the last few weeks The
Statesman has sent notices to many
of its out-of-town subscribers of their
Indebtedness. A recent order Of the
Post Office Department, regulating the
matter admissible to second-class mail
privileges, compels all newspapers to
keep its subscription lists paid up.
Many have responded to our letters,
and the few who have not done so
will please do SO at once. 1t is es-
sential that we conform to the postal
regulations and we can easily do so
with the cooperation Of our patrons.

from us make acknowledgment of it
