NEW YORK, July 1S.-That the defeat
administered to Joe Cans by Battling Mel
son on July has not cost the negro light
weight his entire following Or his conf
dence in himself is proved by recent cor
respondence and dispatches from San
Francisco. Apparently there are many
fight fans on the Pacific coast that still
believe the negro can defeat the Dane.
Cans has admitted frankly that Nelson
was the better fighter on the Fourth and
was fully entitled to the victory. He has
refrained from giving vent to the GUS
tomary excuses which are so frequently
called into play by the fighter who comes

Baltimore to look after his business inter-

third battle between himself and Nelson

Selig. however, wants him to go, instead,
to mountain resort for a rest of at least
month. The point has not yet been de-
cided, but 1t is probable that the negro
will accede to the request OF his manager.
Neither Selig nor Cans is willing to admit
that the negro has fought his last good
fight. They both contend that as a result
of many battles won Cans grew over
confident and attempted to train along
lines more pleasant than satisfactory In
the long run. The negro now admits
that his scheme of training was all
wrong.

NEW YORK, July ia special cable
to the Times from Berlin says:
Lieut. Hans Koeppen wires the Zei-

announcing his arrival there with the
German Protos car yesterday morning

trip of 744 miles from Ekaterinburg

koeppen adds that he expects to reach
Moscow by next Sunday. At the time OF
sending his dispatch, he says. he had no
information of the position of the Ameri-

the railroad, just before crossing the ST.

same point at which to cross the Ural
mountains.
The two then evidently took different
WAYS. The Thomas headed north through
Perm, where it picked UP the northern
branch of the Imperial Russian railroad
going direct to st. Petersburg. but the
Germans chose the more southern route
through Mini Novgorod to MOSCOW. and
thence to st. Petersburg. Whether the
separation was purposed or accidental IS
not known but whatever the cause. the
result is that the Germans have taken n
longer route than the Americans and are
not so far advanced. though they have

than any other competitor, and reported
an average of 20 per cent of its birds in
all races. which is a decidedly better
percentage than any loft has ever known
in Washington.

Tim Hurst and His Way.

OF all umpires before or since there are
none that have had SO much newspaper
space accorded to them as the chubby
little umpire Tim Hurst. There has never
been one who has ruled the field with the
same rod of iron as has Sir Timothy. and
this in the days when ball players were
men who would as soon trim an umpire
as they would attend to any Of the ordi-
nary avocations of the day.
Such fistic giants Of the grassy diamond
as Pat Tebeau. Jimmy McAllister. Jack
O'Connor, Glasscock, Virgil Garvin and
many others too numerous to mention,

pires of a decade and more ago. never
tried any of their games on Hurst and
come out of the big end of the horn Tim
always won out hands down, and. In ad-
dition, made the other fellows eat crow
of the bitterest variety. Hurst always
adapted himself to the situation in hand,
and. as the song goes in the opera OF

punishment fit the crime
Bill Bernhard when in Washington last
wear with the Cleveland club, told story
concerning Hurst and Dick Cooley, who
was then a member of the Philadelphia
team. as was Bernhard himself. This
story which has perhaps never before
been in print treats of one day when
Cooley. in running backward to make a
difficult catch. fell over on his head. and
in addition got such shaking up that he

Jimmy McAleer's Comments.

When the st. Louis club was last in
Washington the manager of the speedy
outfit, one James McAleer, for reasons
best known to the American League presi-
dent, Mr.. Ban Johnson, was debarred
from appearing on the ball field. and this
necessitated that the effervescent Jimmy
take seat in one Of the private boxes
that are located in front of the grand
stand.
1t was here that the writer found the
ST. Louis manager, and while sitting talk
ing with McAleer, Clyde Milan, the nervy
little Outfielder of the Washington club.
stole third base after having purloined
the second bag few moments before, and
when he did this stunt the st. Louis man
az er began to regard Milan with quite
degree Of interest. After watching Clyde's
actions about the third base corner Nc
Aleer, with that famous left-eye squint Of
his. said:
F.. THAT youngster over there, with prac-
tice and some coaching, should make the
most dangerous base runner in the busi-
ness, for he has all the actions Of Arlie
Latham when that champion base stealer
was in his prime. and though Latham
was a lighter man than the Washington
kid still they are both of the same height.
and both throw themselves in the same
manner when going into the bag. What
is another great factor in Milan's base
running Is VNS 6QC0O 6Ilu Ills ucTNS do
well as the nicely in timing his slide. all
Of which attributes were possessed by
Latham"
Hardly had Jimmy finished speaking
when a short outfield fly was knocked not
more than twenty feet back Of shortstop,
and Stone, who should have taken the
ball, was steered Off by Wallace, the cap
tain of the st. Louis club, who signaled
for Hoffman. the center fielder, to make
the catch on account of his having
stronger throwing arm than the heavy
hitting left fielder.
AS the ball fell into Hoffman's hands
Clyde Milan, who really had no business
trying to come home on the play, put his
head down and tore for the home plate,
and, though big Ed Spencer the catcher
of the Mound city team, had the ball In
his hands when Milan was ten feet away
from the plate. yet that clever youngster,
with slide that was perfect in every
particular, came in like something shot
from a cannon. Just as Spencer was going
to put the ball on the kid that nervy play
er gave a regular king Kelly twist OF
his body, and when his feet hit the home
plate big Spencer was paving the ground
with the ball in his hand. three feet away
from Milan's body, while McAleer. with
his eyes ablaze. was pounding the edge
Of his private box in appreciation OF
Milan's great slide.

has been paid. leaving a balance of
$500. to be collected. The money
has been subscribed but the mem
bers have been slow about paying. so
the committee reports. The Metho-
dist church of Denison has always had
the reputation throughout the confer
ence as being one of the most liberal
and most solid financially of any in
Iowa. Those having the matter in
charge are confident that the member
ship will rally promptly to the sup
port of the church and that the de-
felt will be wiped out within the
week.
