BROWN IS TAKING
NO CHANCES

Bob Brown is not taking any
chances of the Indians falling down
II he can help 1t. Stevens fell down
couple of times Tuesday and
Stevens Is indefinitely suspended.
There was reason for Stevens fall
ing down. After a period of good
and consistent playing, he had to
make fool of himselg. Consider
ing the hopes the Indians had
raised by their brilliant playing
lately, the suspension ought to be
made permanent.
Ball players go far enough in the
Tay of bad habits while the season
"a on without INDUCING IN excess
that shows up In their play and
loses games. The man who will
fall for 1t when he has struck a
good battin gand fielding clip, espe-
}cially when his manager had stood
for him while he was playing mis-
erably, deserves no sympathy. The
day of BOXERS in base ball is past.
Brown Is playing right field and
he filled in In good shape there
yesterday.
Jensen may go back in today and
II he fails Claflin Is slated. The
Canucks will likely pitch Gilligan,
their trump pitcher.

CATS OUTPLAY TIGERS

Errors by Conrad and Eastwood,
the Tigers first baseman and
catcher, and Aberdeen's ability to
bunch hits on Baker in the first
three Innings, easily defeated the
Tacoma bunch by score of to 8
on the Aberdeen grounds.
Baker frightened up remarkably
after the third inning and yielded
nothing more to the Black Cats
till the eighth inning, when he let
down the bars for a final run.
Starkell pitched in such manner
that the Tacomans had the hardest
work to place safeties on him. Ia
coma's runs came In the second
and eighth innings, aided by errors
by the opposing side.

Special Correspondence to The Press
LONDON, Aug. 5.-As surely as
beans is beans, September Is is 60
ing to be unlucky for either Jem
Driscoll or Owen Moran. Also it is
sure to be the date of the greatest
battle of the year, from a scientific
standpoint, when these great little
men clash for the reatherweight
championship of Great Britain.
Following as it does upon the
heels of the Welsh-Josephs battle
for the lightweight championship,
the fight has stirred English
sportsmen as they have not been
since the days when Charley
Mitchell was in his prime.
The fact that both boys have met
Abe Attell, the featherweight
champion of the world, and alat
Driscoll outpointed MIN IN 10
rounds and Moran secured two
draws in 20 and % rounds, would
indicate they are beautifully
matched in their coming engage
ment.

scope Of the sugar scandal increases
and the arm of the law is being
stretched to places high and low to

for the most gigantic irregularities
ever unearthed in Japan. One mem.
ber of Parliament after another is
being placed under arrest. The con.

erything before it at the last session
of the diet is the chief sufferer and
will find 1t extremely difficult to raj
ly under the blow. So far twenty

1t appears from confessions alleged
to have been made by the arrested

about, sixty thousand dollars were
spent in bribery and the names of
some fifty members of Parliament it
is understood have been mentioned
in this connection. Even the upper
