 The two little boys were taken be- fore the court by their irate parents with e request that they be sunnmArily dealt with for the theft of $lO bill from a boarder at their home. Judge Orr surveyed the tattered. ragged pair' and noted their intelligent faces. He decided that there was no trace of criminallty in their expressions. and the rest of tho judicial inquiry was conducted on the steps of the courts bench, where the Judge sat with an arm around each of the small young sters.
 "Did you take the money?" he asked Frank.
 Yep, we took it." he replied. "our hoarder gave Frank and me the money to go get 1t changed and we passed a shore store. and Willie and me looked at the shoes, cause we never get any shoes.

SOME WISE DOPE
 FROM BERNHARD

Mack" in The News -Scimitar, passes this out anent Bill Bernhard, of the Volunteer corps:
 Ever talk to Bill Bernhard? The Nashville manager is naturally a taci- turn chap, and it's not often he un- bosoms to anyone-especially to a newspaper fellow So when I caught him contended with the world after a good breakfast this morning, and as near talkative as he ever gets to be, congratulated myself and set to work to draw him out Bill was long time getting to 1t. but finally dropped a manager. You remember he came south last year. and on his first trial as a manager brought the Nashville Volunteers home first past the post in whipping finish with the Pelieans guided by that experienced old pilot.
 II don't believe in this business of drafting a bunch of young material to fill the one or two vacancies in a club" declared Bernhard. Suppose you have a hole at shortstop and in the outfieii manager will go out and draft five rockies from lower leagues. where from S1.6e0 to $2500 He brings 'enn down, pays their board and looks 'em over for few weeks. And then. just before the season starts. he drops four of them and keeps the fifth. though he doubts if he's wise. He would have been better off had he gone ahead and bought two fellows from the big leaRues-players of ability who weren't quite up to Big Noise standard And he would have gotten those two for less money than he paid

sURBURBAN HANDICACP
 WILL BE RUN THURSDAY

New York, June 2o.--Racing inter est In the United States this week is centered chiefly in the classic subur- ban handicap which will be run Thurs day, the opening day of the Sheeps- head Bay track. Unless some unex- pected withdrawals are made at the eleventh hour, nearly score of thor oughbreds will go after the honor.
 James R. Keene's Celt and Hilarious probably will be the favorites for the race. The withdrawal of King James, owned by sam Hlldreth, because of q slight injury to his leg has caused Keene disappointment. but a splendid contest is promised between the Keene horses and Hildreths Restisouche and Fitzherbert.
 The Western contingent place their faith in the entry of T. c. MacDowelPs s Kings Daughter, which recently worked a fast mile and quarter trial
 While the Keene and Hildreth sta bles are looked upon as the logical contenders. there are other entrants which may upset all calculations and win the prize. Among these are AL fred Noble, with 99 pounds, Fayette with s7. and Effendi with s7. and also such good horses as Jack Atkin and Fashion Plate.

ONLY ONE KING IN
 THE BASE BALL WORLD

According to Tim Murnane, however, baseball has had but one king. Writ ing in The Baseball Magazine, Timothy has this to say:
 still green in the memory of those who were old enough at that time to Appre- ciate what 1t meant to the opposing forces.
 Two of the teams fighting for the lead in the Players League met on the Congress Street grounds at Boston, each with a genius for a leader. The captain of the visiting team was at the a glorious victory. Game to the core, he faced one of the cleverest box men in the profession.
 :" strike him out yelled the insane fans from the bleachers. Make him put 1t over.' advised the player on the coaching line. You're working nicely. old pal, encouragingly remarked the home catcher, as he carefully tossed the ball back to the man on the firing line. one.

 from Finnites.

Little Rock. June Especial. )-The Travellers wil 1face the Montgomery aggregation here tomorrow. Gremin- gers crew have not been going very good of late. but the way of baseball is for a team to get together when 1t meets its strongest opponents. Mont gomery is not looked upon here as a weak team, and the Finnites are an- ticipating three good battles. The pitching stan of the local team Is in duty. when Montgomery has five good men to send to the mound. any one of whom is liable to pitch the local team to defeat.
 Bliss Guese and Juul will most like ly be the three twirlers sent against the local team. Greminger is confident that with the three named men, he will get away with at least two of the games. The Montgomery manager is very sweet on his southpaw, who has just joined the team, and he predicts that the college boy will have a little bit on any other left-hander in the league this season Juul is young, has fine curves and good control and his ability was such that when at college he attracted the attention of Charley Murphy of the Chicago Cubs.

Cleveland Gets Going. 

Nashville Tennesseean.
 Cleveland in the American wing has at last thrown aside her winding sheet and come back to life with another of her famous eastern road trips. The Maps have been pumping along like the blazes for the past two weeks and af- ter a pale saffron start are once more bubbling back into the select circle again. Detroit Is still travelling un- der easy beadway and holding her own without cracking any nerves. The Tt- gers look to be fairly sare but they haven't won the pennant yet by sew eral strides. Back in the west they will find Cleveland and Chicago much harder people to handle than they were early in the hunt. The American League race Is fairly open. Outside of the hard hitting Tigers there's no vast gap between any two of the next five clubs.
 Four years ago--the first year that Latofe took charge-Cleveland was 8 fat 113 points in front of the Ameri- can League sprtnts and held as pipe for the flag. This was early in July and the experts had already begun siz- ing up the Maps and Giants. the latter having the National fight sewed up all the way. Tn place of winning, Cleve- land finished fourth or dfth Within less than five weeks after date she was out of the race, and that 113 points lead had been chopped of the slate.
