SPORTING BRIEFS.

The Pittsburg climate must agree
with Roy Thomas. Since leaving Phila-
delphia Roy has shown most beautiful
baseball.
And while figuring up the National
league race don't overlook the New
York Giants. The Workers have been
going great the past month,
Manager Murray of the Philadelphia
Nationals is having more trouble than
a Judge at a baby show in trying to
keep his "Quakers" awake.
Word form St Louis has it that Iron
Man" Joe McGinnity hopes Manager
McGraw Will trade him to the St Louis
Nationals. That's an awful hope.
"Slugger" Johnson of the Portland.
Oregon team is a real hitter. A home
run, a three Dagger and two base hits
in a recent game shows that Johnson
knows how to pick out a good bat.
Major league scouts are getting fussy
majority of the scouters say they
haven't seen a minor Lacquer this sea
son worth a try out with the big guys.
Just when Manager Chance had
everything nicely arranged for his Cubs
to lead the procession all season those
horrid Pittsburg Pirates stepped in and
spoilt it all. But it's alright now.
The New York Highlanders have not
improved under the management OF
Kid Elberfeld. 1t is hard to believe
that a team made up of 50 many star
players could play such poor ball.
Boston has another Tom Mccarthy
The original Tom was a star fielder
while the present Thomas is pitcher

CONDUCTING NEW RACE TRACK

Detroit, Mich. July 1O.-A large force
of men is now at work constructing a
new race track and grand stand at
Windsor, across the river from De-
troit, the plant to be used by those
northern circuit strings whose owners
are not able to send their horses to
California, which is the only field open
to them this winter, now that New
Orleans has been closed.
Joseph James. the millionaire pool
room man of Windsor, is backing the
project, and has received assurances
which lead him to expect there will
be at least 500 horses on hand for the
racing.
The track is a half mile affair with
two kite-shaped chutes leading from
the sides. 1t will probably be opened
with trotting meeting early in the
fall

WIND UP THEIR SERIES.

Washington, July 10-The White
Sox and the Senator'S wound up their
series this afternoon by playing a
sixteen inning tie game The count
was to 2, and darkness put an end
to a conflict that looked as If it might
have continued Indefinitely. as both
teams We're going great guns at the
finish and the pitchers were improv-
ing as the game grew on.
AItrock was on the firing line for the
Sox and pitched the whole sixteen
rounds for the Chicago team. but the
Senators changed pitchers in the four
teenth inning when Burns weakened
and passed two men. and Tom Hughes
came to his rescue and finished up the
battle

of the long stretches a speed of sew

SPORTING NOTES

But Holman with one fierce blow
brought an uncermonious finish to the
excellent fun.
Brown hasn't been in such a battle
this season as Foxen gave him. In
fact, Brown was outpitched in some
respects. He was hit with great deal
more freedom than the left-hander. but
bad better control and received de-
cidedly superior backing.

International Auto Race
Promoters Want Strong
Guard in Lake County.

Crown Point. Ind, July 11-(Spe-
cial.) 1.-The only obstacle in the way
of the successful completion of the
plans for the holding of the great au-
tomobile races, to be held on the course
between Crown Point and Lowell,
around by the way Of Orchard Grove,
seems to have narrowed down to the
question of Governor Hanly and the
state militia. The great event, herald
ed exclusively in these columns yes
terday, is the topic of conversation on
every ones lips and the possibility Of
this district being the locality to be
picked for an event of such magnitude
coming as it does like a free gift
without a bid for the popularity, is
causing our citizens to sit up and take
notice. Nothing IS asked Of Lake
county by the several committees in
charge but the use of the course
which will be practically assured by
obtaining the consent Of the farmers
along the proposed route to forgo their
customary traffic on the road during
that day, and it is not thought that
there will be a farmer along the en-
tire race-way but what Will be a will
ing spectator to the great race and
take the day off as a holiday.
Then the use of the state militia
will be secured, If possible. If the over
lures of the representatives of the pro-
ject are favorably heard by Governor
Hanly. who viii be sounded on the
matter in the near future.
Militia Needed As Guards.
AS the affair is an international one
the militia as guards for the course
will be necessary, as private citizens
will not be competent to keep back the
| crowds that usually crowd the race
/ course on affairs of this kind AS far
as any damage TO the roadway is con-
cerned it is not worth mentioning
when the amount of money which will
be spent on them to put them in prop
er shape for the race is considered. as
it is said the oiling Of the course tc
keep the dust down viii represent ar
expenditure Of at least $500 and will
be a lasting improvement on the road
Other improvements upon the road bee
