Railroad News
3. 3. coNsTRucrloN WORK.

What the NJ. p. Graders Have Accom-
plished the Past Season.
The Mott Pioneer Press gives the
condition of the railroad work in
southwestern North Dakota as it at
present exists:
'"rhe Northern Pacific people, or
more properly speaking the Western
Dakota railway, have practically fin-
ished their grade from Cannon Ball
to Mott, only about 10 per cent re-
naming and which may yet be finished
before Jan /. There are now six
crews working on the line which
els will finish the grade from Mandan
to Cannon Ball this winter, a distance
of Ghirty-four miles, and commence
laying steel in early spring. This takes
the line into Mott. From the county
seat west, the exact course has not
as yet been determined upon. Ac-
cording to Chief Than, who was here
last week accompanied by his wife,
the surveyors are still busy in the
Bad Lands with their objective joint
as Terry, Mont. The last survey
directs the line west from Mott, cross
ing the Cannon Ball river at the coal
mine to the south side, thence west
and northward to the main line. This
would bring the line about reven miles
south of Horswill and about eight
miles south Of New England. Assis-
tant Engineer Exstrand, located at
Mott, states that the exact location OF
the line west will be decided this
month.
Chief Engineer Darling aid other
officials have been over the route
from Mandan south and approved it.
Assistant Engineer McCallman of
the Chicago, Milwaukee a. Puget
Sound line left last week for Kansas
City, having finished his labors here.
He is succeeded by Resident Engineer
Rollins, located at Mott.
The Chicago, Milwaukee & Puget
Sound railway has a stretch OF 1913
miles extending from Mccullough on
the main line to New England in this
county via Mott. About 80 per cent
OF the grading is done and practically
all OF the crews are now in winter
quarters, which means that the road
cannot be finished until spring at best
The line which is definitely decided
upon, follows the Cannon Ball river
very closely through this county to
New England.
The only towns that have been de-
fnitely determined upon by either
road are Flasher, Mott and New Eng
land. Others are problematical.

WCAREY WILL BID FOR
FIGHT AT PROPER TIME

Manager T. ]. McCarey of the Pa
cifc Athletic club will enter into the
bidding for the Jeffries-Johnson battle
at a time when offers for the contest
seem opportune. When he heard the
news of the signing of articles. NC
Carey smiled and rubbed his hands
over that well-cared-for mustache' a
movement that covers many a twinkle
of the shrewd eyes.
'I do not think it is timely TO dls-
cuss the matter at present" was NC
Carey's statement. when the proper
moment arrives l will make bid for
the bout, and I assure the public that
I will fight hard for it. I want the
battle to take place here just as badly
as do any of the fans, and l will make
as generous an offer as the big heavy
weights will receive. I do not care to
take any steps just at this time, FOR as
vet matters are too indefinite to place
myself on record. I don't care TO be
placed out in the open prairie with
the other promoters taking the ad-
vantage of shooting at my figures from
the brush. Just say for me that Los
Angeles will go after that contest nara,
and that McCarey will do everything
within his power to stage the bout for
the worlds championship"

HUNTER WINS FROM
FAST FIELD AT GOLF
Evans of Edgewater Makes Wonder
fuI Score for Youthful Player.
McElwee of Onwentsia
Is Third

CHICAGO, Aug. 11.-Paul Hunter of
Midlothian won the low medal score
trophy of the 36-hole qualifying round
of the annual open tournament of the
Onwentsia club. IIe led a club OF
nearly 100 starters with the excellent
total score of 149 for two days play.
Charles Evans, jr., of Edgewater, the
18-year- old western amateur cham
pion, finished second with 151.
r. II. McElwee of Onwentsia finished
in third place with 152.
The second round of the 36-hole
qualifying round of the annual open
tournament of the Onwentsia Country
club was started today with more
than 100 players still in the running.
The brilliant work of the two 1S-
year -olds-Charles Evans. jr., of Edge
water. and Paul Hunter of Midlothian
caused their work to be watched with
keen interest as they started out. The
steady work of Evans since he won the
Western amateur title has caused him
to be reckoned with as one of the most
dangerous men in the tournament for
the national amateur championship
play at the Chicago Golf club next
month.
Hunter also played a good game.

.BROCK-PICATO FIGHT
NOW DECLARED Off
Number 13 Plays Important Part In
Barry y-5rock-Page Affair.
Pleato's Manager
Criticised

AS the result of the Barry Brock af-
fair, which took place Tuesday evening
at the East Side Athletic club and
in which Jim subdued his opponent
with a hoe handle the Brock -Picato
fight, which was to have been held
Friday evening, August 19, at Nc
Carey's Junction pavilion, has been de-
clared off. Owing to the fact that
Brock was suffering from a two-inch
scalp laceration as the result of his
encounter with Barry the Brock peo~
pie desired a postponement of the
match until Tuesday evening. August
II. Roy Page, manager of Frank PicatO,
refused to consider this proposition un-
less Brock agreed TO fight at catch
weights, which the latter refused to do
Page has been scathingly criticised
for his uncalled for action by every
fan, local and otherwise, as there seems
to be no possible excuse for his re-
quest. 1t looks very much as though
Page at the last moment was afraid
to risk the issue, believing that Brock
would have little difficulty in making
way with his protege. Although Brock
was not seriously hurt in the melee,
which, by the way, Barry endeaYored
to patch up later by offering Brock
the services of his trainer, King Hogan
the clever boxer was undoubtedly
justified in asking for postponement
of the affair, and the least Page could
have done was to have endeayored to
adjust matters instead of showing his
authority by an uncalled for and per
omptory action. Barrys and Pages
recent maneuyers appear to be about on
par.
The forfeit money which was posted
by the fighters and which will prob
ably be claimed by Page may cause
another disagreement between the two
factions. And to cap the climax the
number "13' plays a most significant
part in the whole outrageous affair.
The fight was to have been held Fri
day, August 13, it would have been
Picato's 18th fight under the manage
men (?) Of Roy Page and 1t is re-
ported that there are 13 officers looking
for Jim Barry. And as if this was not
enough be it known that the day Bar
rY broke loose was his 23d birthday.
Tom McCarey says never again 19s for
him. And do you blame him?

Real Sports Are Absent

NEW YORK, Aug. 1.-THE absence
of former noted patrons of the turf
from the race tracks this season is a
matter of much comment in New York
sporting circles. The old-time heavy
bettors wha made SO many good stories
are conspicuous by their absence, and
this is accounted for by the fact that
betting has been restricted by the new
law. Among the missing are John w.
Gates, John A. Drake, Jesse .Lewisohn,
Dave Johnson, Diamond Jim" Brady,
A. R. Thomas, Charlie Ellison, A. L.
Dryer, Frank 3. Farrell, Joe Cassidy
and "Big Tim" Sullivan, who were in
the habit of wagering thousands of
dollars on a single race.

Morninustar to Shine with Hoppe

NEW YORK, Aug. 11.-Ora Morning,
star champion professional billiard
player at the 1872 balk line game, has
returned the diamond medal emblem"
attic of his supremacy to the company
which awarded it to him and, with Will
lie Hoppe. will be a free lance IN the
professional game.
Morningstar, after winning the cham
pionship and creating furore among
billiard players, was engaged by a
manufacturing concern at stipulated
salary to play professional matches as
an advertisement of the firms billiard
products. Morningstar now contends
that the company established for him
certain rules in the playing of his
games which prevented him from real
" showing what he could do. His prln-
cipal objection was that the company
would not permit him to play more
than 500 point game, while he con-
tends that the limit for professional
games should be 1900 points.
Hoppe and Morningstar have now
Joined forces and are contemplating a
tour of the country giving exhibition
games.

Summary
Notes of the Game

When Goodwin made his great catch
of Melchiors fly in the first of the
initial inning he saved the day for the
local artists. 1t is not going too far
to predict that he shut off a series of
runs which might have lost the week S
series for the Angels Anyway, the
right fielder of the Los Angeles ball
club certainly endeared himself to local
fandom when he crushed Mohler' s
hopes of an early lead.
Tozer got away i'm his best form yes
terday afternoon and was never on the
verge of an aeD onautical expedition
during the entire contest.
pop" Van Haltren discovered that
Los Angeles still has a warm place in
her heart for him by the reception
which he was rendered when he an
nounced the batteries for yesterday S
game.
"Jud" Smith, recognizing the i'm
portance of the weeks series, in honor
thereof has washed his suit. Hooray
for Doctor Jud!
Howard's timely hit in the second
started the ball rolling with such force
that Mohler and all of Mohler's men
were unable to check IT.
Willis hit was all that saved Frisco
from being beaten by the goose egg
route.
The northern curve artist made a
beautiful one-hand stop of Daley 5
grounder in the last half of the second.
Orendorff made the only error chalked
against the Angels yesterday when he
dropped a foul fly in the first half of
the fifth inning.

HoIbeIn Crossing Channel

CAPE Girls NEZ, France, Aug. IL
Montague Holbein, the well known
English long distance swimmer, started
out at 5:45 this afternoon in an attempt
to swim the English channel. Two
hours after he took to the water he
was lost to view in the haze, and late
tonight no news had been received con-
corning his progress.
Today was Holbien's forty-eighth
birthday.
Attempting to swim the English
channel from Cape Girls Nez to Dover
is no new experience for Holbein. Six
times he has essayed the task but each
time his efforts have been fruitless.
His nearest approach to success was in
August, 1903, when he was taken out
Of the water exhausted about a mile
from Dover after having swan for
% hours and q minutes.
