Upton CHALLENGE
CAUSES SURPRISE
Yachtsmen Wonder at Re
port After Baronet's
Refusal to Race.

London, July 10.-Much surprise Is
eXpressed in Yachting circles here over
the announcement that Sir Thomas Lin
ton has notified the Royal Ulster Yacht
club that he will again challenge for
the Americas cup, allowing the Ameri-
cans to name their own rules and build
boat of any size they please. Sir
Thomas has repeatedly said that he
would never challenge again under the
special rules in force during the past
races on the other side of the ocean.
and his sudden change of mind is caus-
ing much gossip.
While Sir Thomas is regarded In
England as a sportsman pure and sim
pie, he has never succeeded in gaining
membership in the Royal Yacht club
owing to his inability to sail his own
yacht. The members of the latter or
ganization, most of whom are members
Of the nobility, will not discuss the
latest phase of the yachting situation
for publication, but privately they ex-
press the opinion that Sir Thomas has
been experimenting with a new model
ever since the defeat of Shamrock III
four years ago. and, having found a.
model to his taste, Will again try to
lift the cup No intimation of the de-
signer, or the shipyard at which the
new challenger will be built has been
given out, but the fact that Sir Thorn
as has spent much of his time in Scot
land lately leads to the belief that the
new boat will be des igned and built by
q firm on the Tyne
Sir Thomas one ambition has been
to capture the much-p priced cup and
bring 1t to this country, and he was
bitterly disappointed at the failure of
Shamrock III. to beat the Columbia
Though beaten, Sir Thomas Shamrock
III. was not disgraced. In a thirtv
mile race there was but few min
utes' difference in the time Of crossing
the finishing line. but the American
boat always had just enough margin
TO win At that time It was claimed
that the trouble was not in the boat
itself, but in the crew and sailing mas
ter, but of course there are none to be
found on this side Of the pond who will
criticise the manner in which the cbal
lengers have been handled.

QUAKERs COP IT

Philadelphia July 10.-Showing a
marked reversal of form, Chicago was
beaten, to l. yesterday by the ouak-
ers, and were fortunate that they es
capped a shutout. Weak at the bat

added to equally weird pitching. the
cubs were far from being the team that

There was an absence of that fight
ing spirit that is a distinguishing fea-
ture of the champions work, and they
stood up at bat like so many wooden

Young Donahue of Boston before the
Empire A. c. last night when Donahue

SAME OLD STORY

Jake Stahrs home run, the longest
on record at the South Side park, broke
the hearts Of the sox yesterday. The
former football star damned his drive
with pard on first and the two runs
teetered the home guard off its bal
ance. BY virtue of this spectacular
exhibition of Jake's prowess. Boston
copied the first of the series. . to l.
Up to the fifth inning, when Stahl
butted in. Burns had things going
along nicely. He held the pilgrims
down to one hit and the sox, with a
tally to their credit. were running on
neven keel. But that fifth came like
a bolt out Of a clear sky Wagner had
rammed single as a starter. the sec
ond of the day off Burns. Then nm
came Stahl. Now. under ordinary cir
cumstances a sacrifice was in order.
That's the way the game is generally
played.

KEYESPORT HAS
CHAMPION DUCK

Carlyle, Ill, July 1o.-Sharp Meal
lister, well known merchant of Keye-
sport. owns a big white duck which he
thinks can whip anything in the foul
line that walks on two legs Thus far
it has vanquished all corners in short
order and is undisputed champion of
Keyesport and vicinity. The owner of
the duck has a little sporting blood in
his veins and is willing to back I'D his
judgment with the coin of the realm.
In signed notice in a local paper he
says: I will give a purse of $3.50 for
a rooster that Will whip my big white
duck"
He is so confident of the fighting
qualities Of the duck that he is even
willing to make it little better The
duck can whip a dog Of ordinary size.
1t fights bulldog fashion, that is, when
1t gets a good hold 1t stays there A
rooster soon succumbs to the death
grip.
