RAISE
Is Accorded Past Work
of Manager Murphy by
Akron Scribe
HAS BRIGHT FUTURE

The Akron Beacon Journal speaks of
Manager Murphy as follows:
Eddie Murphy will do managerial
stunts this year for the first time un-
der the name of manager. For two
years he has directed teams and the
manager in name has got most or
the credit. The ones who know
have given Murphy all the credit and
row that he will have full charge OF
q team this year 1t remains to be
seen If he can keep up his work.
"In 1906 Murphy was field captain
OF the Washington p. o. NJ. league
team, Budget Seamon, Western Re
serve football coach, was bench man
ager. He attended to signing players;
Murphy was the one who planned out
the battles on the field and carried
them through. Washington led the
league that year until the close Of the
season when the grasping instincts
OF the owners led them to forfeit
scheduled game In order 70 play an
exhibition contest with Plttsburg. Then
followed that funny deal whereby I'm
iontown won three games on the last
day of the race and took the PEN
nant from Washington. Murphy won
Il fair and square.
last season Murphy was signed by
Percy Stetler to captain the Steuben-
VILE team Of the same league. All
know that Stetler is merely a figure
head when II comes to directing a
team in games. Murphy was again
called upon as leader. Again he
showed his ability. Although his |
team got poor start he rallied the
aggregation and by grand fight in
July copped the pennant. Some may
ory that Murphy's success last year
was due to the fact that Steubenville
had such q bunch OF high-priced men.
This cannot be true as the year be-
fore Murphy had about the cheapest
team in the league and a bunch OF
young players II Eddie makes good
this time he will take a place as ono
of the most successful minor league
in the business"

LEAGUE PLAYERS
Finally Get Rid Of Mcustaches--Last
Went Short Time Ago.

Philadelphia, Pa, April 5.-The last
soup strainer has passed from big
league company.
The strands of golden brown that
hid the space between the classic nose
and Cupid mouth OF John Titus com
posed the last survivor.
Now, that he has passed away. for,
desiring to be able to have to coach
without hurting his words through a
tangle of red weeds, John imbibed a
gallon OF laughing gas and permitted
a Savannah barber to lay sacrileg-
ious blade on the last of the soup
strainers.
A link that bound the past TO the
present thus passed for all time.
Philadelphia had for many years
the oompanlon-piece TO the Titus
mustache. Monte Cross held onto his
until 1904, but when It began to take
on a gray tinge at the ends Monte
thought II about time TO change his
disguise. Jake Becbley clung to the
old fashion for a long time, but even
the German was forced to bow to
modern customs.
Once no big Lacquer was complete
without upper lip adornment. His
mustache was only second in import
ance TO his bat or glove. photographs
OF the old-timers, Anson, Kelly, Gore,
Brouthers, all show fine piratical
adornment.
Some time In the early '90's the
fashion changed. Some baseball mod
list OF that period decided that the
mustache was no longer de rigeur.
The edict was promptly obeyed and
enough hair was shorn from the faces
OF ball tossers 70 stuff mattress.
To the younger generation OF fans
tho Titus mustache was a survival OF
a remote period-a curiosity. Now
even that is gone.

Welty.POmerene Contest
Brings Out Others
Garber's Withdrawal
Leaves Tom johnson
Less to Fret About.
Latter Has a Reserve
Candidate in Williams

Columbus. o., April 5.-Time enough
has elapsed to Judge whether the
rather humorous harmony conference
held In this city last month produced
any effect upon the Democrats of the
state. The voice of the Democratic
press Is single In the statement
that conditions in Ohio did not be-
mand any such meeting. and this Is
the view that the party workers seem
to take Of II. Perhaps the best thing
that came out OF the gathering was
the demonstration OF the fact that at
that time the Democrats In every
section were ready and eager for the
fray. 1t does not appear that the
candidacy of any man or any indi-
vidual leadership was helped by tho
meeting. II was demonstrated that
there Ia q strong feeling Of admira-
tion for Judson Harmon, OF Ciucin-
natl, as gubernatorial candidate, but
II Ia coupled with the belief, wheth-
we'll founded or not, that he will not
enter the contest. His friends are d.
vided upon this matter. Some be-
lieve that this is tho accepted time
for him to go before the national
Democracy with his claims for the
presidency. Others are OF the opin-
ion tnat 1t would be best to submit
himself to the electorate OF Ohio, and
by carrying the state demonstrate that
he is the man for 1908.
The withdrawal of Chairman Har-
vey c. CARRIER from active politics

quarters state he is getting along
swimmlngly and that the fans who
have seen him In his preparatory
work consider him a sure winner.
That, OF course, also is the opinion OF
the local sports. Britt is not as good
a fighter as he was two years ago, and
IL Mcfarland cannot defeat him de-
cisiyely he should chase the cham
pinoship bee out OF his bonnet. Jimmy
always has been considered the cley-
crest lightweight ever turned out on
the Pacific coast, but never was re-
garded as q strong hitter. His forte
was long range boxing and dancing
around tho ring. With an opponent
of the same style Of milling he would
show up wonderfully well, but poorly
with a man who would force him to
battle at close quarters. In "Packey"
he will stack up against a man who
will not give him moments rest and
one who Is thoroughly acquainted
yith the scientific points of the game.
Besides that, he will find him a
strong. husky youngster with enough
stamina and vitality 10 go the twenty

and Jack Johnson, aspirant for the

however, insisted on $4,000 for his
bit. win, lose, or draw, which may
cause the big black to scratch his

set OF articles. OF course Tommy will
be accused OF unfair business meth
DDS, also that he is setting price SO
high no club In America could meet
II. thereby making 1t impossible to
match with Jack. The champion,
however. simply is following In the
financial footsteps of Bob Fitzsim-
mons. Joe Cans and Battling Nelson.
Fitz demanded and received 75 per
cent OF the money regardless OF the
outcome Of the fight, when he met
Jim Jeffries at Coney Island. Nelson,

Massillon, o., April 5.--Whether
Massillon is TO have new 100000
concern, employing 150 men and hav-
Ing monthly payroll Of over $4,000
Is to be decided at a public meet
ing Of citizens TO be held tomorrow
evening In the mayors court room.
The call for the meeting has been is
sued by the board of trade and the
Retail Merchants association. Both
OF these organizations have been
working jointly for some time to get
the new concern and Il ia now up
to the people to say whether or not
Massillon is to have this fine new en-
terprise.
The proposition Is to have $4,000
subscribed by Massillon people in or
der to give the concern start. The
plant will engage in the manufactur-
ing Of sheet steel. and will be a Your
roll mill. The men to be employed
will be skilled workmen aud OF q
class that the city may we'll be proud

The names of the hackers of the
new concern have not been made pub
lie by the promoters of the scheme
In this city. However II is rumored
that st. Louis capital will te used
to push the enterprise but the relia-
bility OF this report Is questionable.
The subscription OF $4,000 In
cludes the amount needed for the pur
chase of the site for the location OF
the new plant Several excellent
sites can be had at moderate rates
and II Is believed that no difficulty
will be experienced along that line.
The call for the public meeting to-
morrow night has completely aroused
the people and II Is expected that
good showing will be made for the
start of the enterprise.

week. Spike" being sent to the clean
ers In the third round by Cans and
Abey sticking the limit OF fifteen
rounds with Nelson to draw. The
Gans-Robson bout, limited to six
rounds, was a Joke. as the oolored
champion made the Engltshman ap-
pear a novice, and. TO convince him
he should remain In his class, he
knocked him out.
Robson claims the 12e pound cham
pionship OF England. and as he has
been quite successful in his short
bouts in this country he was under
the impression that there was not an
American lightweight In the business
that he could not hold fairly even In
six rounds. As for being knocked out
in so short a bout, he considered Il
impossible even by such known hard
hitter as Cans. He probably thought
he might get shade the worst of the
milling, but he did not think It would
injure his reputation. Now he knows
better.
