TIPPING STORIES
Will Be SIFTED
President Johnson Offers Re.
ward of $500 for Convicfing
Information


CHICAGO, July 23.-Five hundred
dollars reward has been offered by the
American league for evidence tending
to show that any player or club in the
league is using or countenancing the
tipping of signals of an opposing team.
Any player involved will be blacklisted
from organized baseball for all time to
come. at
This bit of information, in addition
to the fact that JG>c~ Sheridan may be-
come manager of umpires in the Ameri-
can league or given some other exalted
position. was handed out by President
B. B. Johnson on his return to Chicago
from the east.
Il made a thorough investigation
while in the east in regard to the tip
ping bureau of the New York Ameri-
can club" said President Johnson. but
I could not discover any evidence to
support the talk that was started some
time ago. Neither could L find out that
Pitcher Ed Walsh of the Chicago
American league club had ever said
that he believed there was such a sys-
tenn of signals employed.
There is no one more concerned
about it than myself, and 1 will paw
$500 to any man who produces proof
that any improper signals were used.
The fact of the matter is that the New
York players have been batting just
as strongly when away from home as
on their own grounds and this in itself
should disprove the charges"

AMERICAN RUGBY
men LOSE AGAIN
Fast Canterbury Union Team of
New Zealand Too Much for
Varsity Stars
By WILLIAM UNMACK

The Canterbury Rugby Union team,
New Zealand, yesterday administered
the third defeat that the All American
team has suffered during the tour of
the Maori land. The game was played
at Christchurch. All the teams that
the American team has met in New
Zealand up to the present have been
far stronger than any of the teams that
were opposed to them in Australia All
these Rugby Union teams in New Zea-
land are the very pick of their respect
i've districts, and correspond to an All
Star California team.
From this it can be seen that New
Zealand is not giving our boys any
easy snaps" and as matter of fact
the team will learn far more good
Rugby by playing these games than by
going up against teams that are of
their own caliber.
The games have all been played in
large cities that are the center of the
great Rugby districts in New Zealand
and it is from these unions, such as
wellington, Auckland, Otago and Can
terbury. that the famous New Zea-
land "All Blacks" are recruited. While
these district union teams are naturally
not as strong as combined New Zea
land All Black team, yet they are far
superior to any of the club teams in
New Zealand.
The combined American team is
meeting the New Zealanders at their
national game, a game that the play
ers in New Zealand have born and bred
in their veins and play for the greater
part Of the year. Our boys have no
such advantages as these, and what
they know of the game has been
learned by hard study and playing ex-
perIence against teams here that are
far inferior to any of the teams they
are now meeting. Under these conJi-
tions the performance of our boys is
not half as bad as the scores seem to

MAY SUTTON Will
BE Seen in ACTION
Girl Who Won Championship of
World to Try TO Regain
Coast Title

The annual tennis tournaments for
the singles championship of the coast
for both men and women will be
played at Del Monte September . to
10. Last year, owing to the absence
of Mclaughlin. Long, Bundy and Sinsa-
baugh, four leading players of the
coast. the mems event was eclipsed by
the women's, but this will not prove
the case this year. Long will no doubt
be among the entrants. and will prob
ably fight it out with George James for
the championship.
1t is expected a number of the cracAD
from the northwest will also partici-
pate. and they have some clever play
ers up there.
The women's event will prove even
better than last year. May sutton, who
did not participate last year. will no
doubt regain the title. Her sister
Florence beat Hazel Hotchkiss last
year at Del Monte. While Mclaughlin
and Bundy will be missed this year.
the tournaments are expected to prove
even more interesting than those held
last year.
The first tournament under the
regime of the new officers of the
Golden Gate tennis club will be held
at the park today, and it bids fair to
eclipse any event held in recent years
with respect to the number of entries.
Six or seven years ago a handicap
singles tournament would have at
tracted an entry list of more than 100.
but in recent years so have been the
limit. In tOday's event there will be
more than so in the competition. 1t
looks as if there would be revival at
the park so far as tournaments are
concerned. and tournaments are the life
of the game.

Baseball Notes

The Angels have scored but two runs in the
last three games. This rate of speed will not
win pennants for any team. 1t will be hard to
find the batting averages of some of those
southern swatters If they continue their pres
ent gait. At that the Oaks have not hit much
either, but they are PLAYING the game
Mites hand was given hard rap in the
seventh when a foul ball caught him off guard
1t looked IL Thomas might be called in. but
the game backstop stuck the contest out He
caught an exceptionally good game.
De1mas hit high one in the fifth which
looked if it was going over the fence. The
ball hit the screen few feet from the top.
Daley's base running was far below his true
form. He was caught asleep off second in the
eighth. In fact, his work was far below his
usual standard.
Bernard got as far third in the sixth but
he got assistance and remained there
Ralph Willis will probably work during the
morning game at Oakland. Wolyerton has not
worked any Of his pitchers twice so far this
series. The Oakland club is well fortified with
high class twirlers and they have had a great
deal to do with keeping the club up in the race

Birds as OracIes.

A most remarkable superstition of
the Kenyahs of Borneo is the consulta-
ton of birds. If, for example, Ken
yah has to undertake long journey
he will not risk it without having first
consulted the "flakki," kind of hawk.
If the hawk flies with its wings spread
out to the right side it is a good sign,
but if it goes to the left or flaps its
wings then the journey is not begun in
any circumstances. The next day the
Kenyah tries once more until the
hawk gives the sign which he wants.
Thus the continuation of the journey
depends on the fight of the birds.
Some birds are of greater Importance
than others. and also to the singing of
the birds attention is given. Other
animals are also consulted, and the sea
Dyaks call every animal a bird" when
they consult it.

Rutland's Strike Troubles.

Michael Pifko, of West Rutland, was
bound over to the grand jury Friday on
two charges of intimidating workmen.
it being alleged that he yelled "scab" at
two crews of strike breakers on the
local street railway line as the cars
passed through West Rutland. Pifko
furnished 5000 bail in each case.
The company has had almost daily
mishaps since the strike breakers have
run its cars. Friday trolley struck a
heavily loaded ice cart and tipped 1t
over, scattering a ton and half of ice in
the road and throwing the driver, w. H.
Doubleday, out on his head. He was not
seriously hurt.
John Kelley, a strikebreaker, who
struck Robert Rowland, union man,
who asked waitress not to serve him,
was fined $40 Friday for breach of the
peace. The street railway company APP
pealed the case. Rowland filed civil
suit against Kelley, asking $1,000 dam
ages for assault.
