BEGINS WITH
A DEFEAT


Ready for hard battle the new
ly-organized baseball team of Perth
Amboy Lodge No. 784, B. p. o. Elks,
marched to the Copper Works dia-
.mond Saturday afternoon to play a
team from the Royal Arcanum, but
when the Arcanum team, consisting
of two members, arrived, the antler-
ed ones received disappointment.
The Elks felt like playing ball
anyway so scrub team, composed
mostly of boys, was made up While
the Elks played fine ball the little
fellows in nine innings secured four
teen runs and the lodge had but
seven. The scrub team had one Ar
canum man on it, w. A. Belcher,
whose star playing at second was a
feature of the game. TEX" Near
die played first for the scrubs and
tBandy" Moylan third, while the
battery was the Browning brothers.
''BilI" Hoffner pitched for the
Elks until the fifth, when A j Skew
ington assembled the mound Both
had Dubois" curves and a new kind
of "outs" that fooled their oppo-
nents. Oren Browning, Sr., caught
in exactly the same way he did not
many years ago when he was a prom
inent local star The Elks were
there on the hitting, but took too
many chances on the bases.
In the first inning Browning
knocked three-bagger and through
out the game there were plenty of
long hits. The scorekeeper was in
structed not to mark down any er-
rors. The scrubs scored every in
ming but the third and eighth and In
the fourth on account Of Stephenson,
an Arcanumite, who was playing
center field for the Elks, missing a
fly, got three men home, making a
total of four runs in that inning.
Joe Maher umpired the game,
which lasted nearly two hours. The
spectators numbered over 100.

JOHNSON LACKS THE
REAL HITTING POWER
FOR A CHAMPION

New York, Sept. 13.-Several con-
illusions have been reached by sporting
men who discussed the Johnson Kauf-
man ten-round bout. While johnson
was easily the master from q scientific
point Of view, it was again pretty
clearly shown, that be lacks the hitting
power of real heavyweight champion,
also tiiat Kaufman s clnmsy methods
and slothfulness enabled the negro to
outclass him with plenty to spare.
But in spite of the fact that Kauf-
man had practically no defense and was
punched almost at will by Johnson in
a~majority of the rounds, he was never
on the verge of knockout and finished
full of fight and vigor
/ If johnson had the punch of a JEFF
fries OF a Ketchel he probably would
have slowed Kaufman away in less
t than- hAff dozen rounds, it is thought,
but his failure to stop Kaufman or
make him take a single count from a
knock down, strengthens the opinion of
many good judges that the negro is sim
ply a great boxer, who does not care
for long fights.
Kaufman, on the other hand, is
strictly finish fighter, with endur-
ance and pluck, who has no business
with clever man in a short mill.
1t is safe to predict, therefore, that
having 'outpointed Kaufman in ten
rounds. johnson will steer clear of a
finish fight with the big Californian as
long as possible.
Johnson has increased his prestige,
however, and many ring followers who
e. ba1
pueilistie skill are now ready to give
due credit. Johnson will tackle Jim
Barry at Los Angles in similar bout
before the end of the month, but as
Barry is outclassed by Kaufman, the
result appears to be a foregone conclu-
sion.
johnson, however, will keep on train
ing and will doubtless be in better con-
d:tion than ever before when he meets
Ketchel. The johnson X etehel fight,
by the way, will be pulled off regard
less of the result of the Ketchel-Lang
ford bout. When Ketchel heard the re-
suit of the Johnson Kaufman mill he
said he was glad that the negro won
because it meant more interest in John
son in California. Willus Britt, Ket-
chefs manager, was also pleased.
If Ketchei and Langford are on their
feet at the end of ten rounds at the
Fairmont Athletic Club next Friday
night, johnson will be an Overwhelming
favorite when he meets the Michigan
lion, while if Langferd scores knock
out interest in the johnson -Ketchel mill
will drop to practically nothing, 1t
Ketchel puts Langford away, however
his stock will take big boom and his
mill with the heavy weight champion
will doubtless prove a first draw
ing card with johnson still the favor
ite at perhaps to /.

A Frank Estimate.

To many persons who are not actors
the stage seems delightful and fss-
cinating place. In book called The
Actress" Louise Closer Hale. herself
an actress, tells some of her expert
ences with. girls who envy her her pro-
fession. One day one of them from
behind q counter IN a shop said, Il
should have went on the stage"
'.she evidently wanted to talk, and !
strove to be interested" says Miss
Hale.
But see how tired I am" I said to
her. "I have to work very hard as It
is, and / had to work much harder to
gain what little recognition have
had"
"Oh, yes," she responded, compia-
Gently gazing at herself in a mirror.
"But, you see, have talent"

They were sisters-in-law and reason
ably well disposed toward each other.
One was the mother Of George, aged
six months, and the other was the
mother of Marian, aged six months
and four days. 1t was impossible that
a slight parental rivalry should be al
together concealed.
Marian does not seem to grow very
fast" said the mother Of George, with
a suggestion of commiseration in her
tones. George is much taller
(height being measured In inches).
Perhaps he is, replied the mother
of Marian coldly, "but Marian weighs
more
"Oh, WELL" responded the sister-in-
law, with a smile Of high bred su-
periority, "of course l should not wish
George to be gross. Exchange.

NEWS OF THE NEIGHB0RS

tees of the Temple Baptist church
yesterday accepted the resignation of
Rev. Robert j. Burdette, the preach
er. humcrist and journalist. When
the question of his resignation came
up, there was strong opposition to it..
many of the trustees preferring to
give their pastor an unlimited vaca-
ton in the hope that his health
would recover sufficiently to permit
him to return to the pulpit. But a
letter from the pastor put an end to
the discussion. 1t is known among
his friends that DR.. Burdette will
never recover from his present ill
ness. He probably will live for many
years, but his health is permanently
broken. He is resting at his sum-
mer home at the beach and has to
| wear a heavy plaster cast to support
his back, which was injured last win
