Since his d%isgraceful fiasco with old

Thunderbolt." has made frequent and
emphatic denials Of any crookedness
about the bout that went over the ff-
teen rounds by mistake" Billy has
declared up and down that he will
show the California public that he
can fight. and fight on the square. He
picked Jim Fireman) Flynn as his
next opponent, but the bout was called
off. Then he made u date with Jimmy
Howard. and Jimmy has just made it
known that he will not enter the ring
with the 'Thunderbolt." 1t looks as
though middleweights were a little

HUMOROUS CUPS
The Pursuit.

LThey are chasing horse thieves with
motorcars in Kansas now.-News ltem.I
Come, crank your swift auto and jump to
the wheel:
We need all the strength OF it's qutvering
steel,
For forty-f1ve horses are gone In the
night.
And we must give chase to the robbers
in flight.
If forty-tive horses are stolen and gone
A motor OF sixty should catch them by
dawn.
And We'll run down the thieves as they
gallop away
And string them up high. as they do in a
play.
Across the "pray-rare-ree'' we b%uoyantly
bound
With wheels that seem scarcely to stay
on the ground.
The sparker is working with perfect eclat.
The piston Is doing much better than that.
The Hist: There's a cloud in the dis
lance. and-see!-
the robbers are scattering tacks as they
fee!
Swing off from the path! Take a chance
at the fence!
The way hat she cleared it is something
immense!
And now we are close on the trail-let 'er
go!
They're riding their best. but their best is
too slow.
You tend to your driving. I'll shoot when
/ must.
Bang! There is one robber who's bitten
the dust.
Surrounded by autos they give up at last;
The horses are saved and the robbers
bound fast,
And the manager says he is sure it will
go
AS the finest of films at a vaudeville
show.

Playing Managers Now Scarce.

There's nothing to it but that these
are baseball's big, important days and
that inside of a very few years there
won't be u single player-manager left.
Clarke and Chance admit that they've
had enough-that the double work is
too strenuous for them. Both hope to
go to the bench next spring. 1t wasn't
SO many years ago that there were
very few bench managers. Now the
majority of them operate from the
coop-to wit: McGraw. Lake. Dahlen.
Griffith. Mack. McAleer. Donovan.
Stallings. Duffy, Mcclure, Jennings
and O'Connor. By the bye, notice
there isn't a single player-manager in
the American league.
Manager Fred Clarke says that the
slump his boys have taken is some
thing that, comes to all ball teams, and
the team that cannot stand a little
backwash now and then should never
be classed as the real thing in base
ball.

Cost of RUNNING Baseball Club.

Few people stop to consider the cost
of keeping up a ball club. The ex-
pense goes on not only in the regular
season. when the gates are working
for the club. but it is a big proposition
in the spring training camp. Man
ager Hughie Jennings Of the Detroits
recently estimated that the Tigers ex-
pense a week while in training is just
about $1,000. He remarked hat that
was only u beginning.
I'VE have the hotel bill, the car to
grounds. the baths and other like in
cidentals TO consider. and this makes
the figures mentioned by me rather
conservative when you consider that
we have t%wenty-four men in the camp.
THE Detroit club is liberal. 1t calcu-
lates on an outlay Of from $4,000 to
$4,000 during the training season.
While the pay of the players does not
start until April Is. the travelling ex-
penses, hotel fare and other i%ncidentals
give a magnificent total and one that
would appall were it not for the fact
that a winning club is worth it's
weight in gold.
'This outlay is very nearly evened
up in the first series of the league race,
but at that time the expenses keep
running also. However, it is not long
before the spring debt is rubbed out.
Our salary list: Well. we pay out
about 100000 a month for our play
ers. Add that to the other large ex-
penses and you have some idea Of the
cost OF a pennant winning ball club.
A club has to take in some pretty
sizable crowds to get back the money
spent. And vet baseball is paying in
most towns"

1t is considered by Denver & Rio

sorb the Western Pacific, name and
all, and that the transcontinental line
formed by the two working in con-
junction will be operated out of
Denver as headquarters for the en-
larged system.
I'VE do not know for certainty
that this move is going to be made, -
said a Rio Grande official Saturday,
but much more improbable things
have been done in railroad consolida-
tion. II is not a wild dream. by any
means"
The Western Pacific is really only
a Denver & Rio Grande extension.
Important, but only the tail of the
dog and not the dog itself, as some
writers profess to think. The Rio
Grande has over $500 miles of track.
and the Western Pacific only 921
miles. Furthermore. the Rio Grande
owns S50,000,00O of the S75,O0O,-

Operating expenses amounting to
many thousands of dollars annually
could be saved by a mbination of
the Rio Grande with the Western
Pacific. 1t is undeniable also that
considerably more traffic would be
controlled absolutely by the comhin-
alton than can be commanded by each
road working separately. There
