WELL, WE'LL, WE'LL!

St. Louis, Sept Both ends Of the
double-header here with the browns
yesterday afternoon were won by the
white sox. The score of the first game
was 4 to 2, and that of the second af-
fair was to 0. Ed Walsh had Jack
Powell for an opponent in the opening
game and Harry Sutor faced Billy Bail
ey in the second game.
The games were played under the
most unfavorable weather conditions.
1t rained most of the morning, but
stopped at noon and allowed the
grounds some two hours in which to
dry of. The sun came out for a few
minutes only to help in the work. but
was hidden behind dark clouds again.
The running of bases was a hard
proposition for the athletes and they
had to rely almost entirely on base
hits for their advancement along the
bases.

San Francisco. Sept. s.-Today IS
Kaufman day at Coffroths
arena, and Kaufman for one is mighty
glad of it, They say AL has suffered
more torture while listening to advice
as to the way he ought to box Johnson
than he expects to endure when he runs
foul of the champions upholstered
fists.
AL is a popular fellow and has large
following. He is gentle-mannered
(outside the ropes) and a good listener.
His friends have taken advantage of
this and Al has been variously advised
to go at Johnson like a steam engine;
to stay away from Johnson; to hold
back for five rounds and fight the next
five at breakneck speed.
These are only a few Of the sure

EAST HASN'T
MUCH SHOW

The national amateur golf champion
for 1908 will be one of these eight
brilliant players: Walter ]. Travis.
Garden City; Charles Evans Jr., Edge
water; II. Chandler Egan, Exmoor;
Robert A. Gardner. Hinsdale; Paul
Hunter, Midlothian; Mason Phelps, Mid
lothian; Albert Seckel, Riverside; D. E.
Sawyer, Wheaton.
On the form displayed by these men
in the tournament on the links of the
Chicago Golf club at Wheaton experts
are all at sea when it comes to picking
final winner. The matches today
if the weather be favorable and the
greens fast-will be in all probability
even more sensational than they were
yesterday. and old followers of the
game agree that they never saw pref
tier golf than was played yesterday.

JOHNSON RISKS TITLE TO-DAY;
ONE PUNCH KAUFMAN'S HOPE

guides to success that Al has had his
attention drawn to. 1t is said he has
promised to box six different ways, but
out of all the confusion good may come
When he gets away from his we'll wish
ers and has merely Johnson's dark
presence to engage his attention he will
no doubt fight his own way.
A great deal depends, of course. upon
the way Johnson fights, and unless the
champion wishes to invite ridicule he
viii infuse action into his work. He
informed Coffroth several days ago that
he would forfeit the sum set aside for
his training expenses If he failed to
knock out Kaufman in nine rounds.
This certainly looks as II Jack intended
going right at his man.
If Johnson makes a close fight Kauf-
man must of a necessity follow suit,
for what AL does not know about side
stepping and backing away would form
an admirable treatise on the manly art.
And the closed and faster the fighting
the better Kaufman's prospects should
appear. The chances of placing a wal
lop are much better when the gloves
are continuously flying at short range,
and Kaufman has said he believes he
can turn the tide with one good blow.
Then again, where hurricane fight
ing is the order of the day the thing
may merge into a question of condi-
ton. In such case kaufman, who has
not been feted as much as Johnson dur
ing the past half year. may display
more stamina than his clever opponent
These are possibilities, of course. AS
against them. there are Johnson's 20s
pounds of fighting Drawn and John
sons proven cleverness, which are stub
born facts

the sturdy Simplex driver was up and

Robertson's stop seemed to have rob-

forty miles to go Grant caught him and
took the lead. Later, however. as the
Alec car was racing up the back
stretch, it capsized, broke its chain. and
Robertson again took the lead and was
