SOME GOOD WORK
AT BILLIARDS
Edward w. Gardner Wins
The Championship in
New York Contest.

New York City, April 21-Edward W.
Gardner. of the Montclair Athletic club,
not only won the title Of amateur bill
lard champion in the 1873 balk line
tournament at the Hamilton club Brook
lyn, but he scored the best grand aver
age Only was he hard pressed inthe game
with Jos. Mayer, Of Philadelphia, which
he won by the close margin of % points.
He scored in his six games 2400 points
and 1t took 23S innings to make that
total, SO that his grand average Is 1904
He played steadily and consistently, as
his record for each game shows. His
poorest single average was fraction
over and his best single average was
more than IL
The second best average work was by
j. Ferd Poggenburg, of the Liederkranz.
He won four games out of the six, be-
ing beaten by Gardner and Uffenheimer.
His total points scored were 1850, which
he made in $40 innings, giving him
grand average of 9.416. He made the
best single average in the tournament,
running out a game in % innings, with
an average of 10 1924. His poorest game
was that with Gardner, which he lost
by score of 400 to 2SO and probably
his best was with Conklih. when he won,
running out with IS when Conklin needed
Sc to win.
Charles F. Conklin, OF the Chicago
Athletic association showed consistent
FORM He suffered defeat at the hands
of Gardner and Poggenburg. For a
time he made a strong bid for the aver
age prize, having made an average of
II 1881 in his game with Mayer, and
this game was one of the hardest he
played He won with only II points to
spare He scored in all his games 1858
points and averaged 1905.
Joseph Mayer. of the Columbia club, of
Philadelphia. at times played fine bill
lizards, but he was not steady. In his
game against Brown he made a run Of
122, which won the special prize for the
best run. In his six games, two of
which he won, he scored 2151 points in
2SS innings and made an average of
1921.
Morris D. Brown. of the Hamilton
club, newcomer in national tournaments,
won only one game, that with DR.. Doug
las, Of the New York Athletic club. He
lacked tournament experience, which
hurt his chances very much. In his six
games he made a total of 1871 points
and averaged $3.50.
DR.. Walter E. Uffenheimer. of the
Columbia club, of Philadelphia, was al
so new conner in a big tournament He
too won three games and one was from
Poggenburg. 1t took him 80 innings
to score 1851 points and his grand aver
age was SOAP. His game with Gardner
spoiled his record.
DR.. Walter G. Douglas, of the New
York Athletic club, won one game, de-
featlng DR.. Uffenheimer He took 26s
innings TO make a total of 1888 points
and averaged 1915
Compared with former tournaments
that Of this year does not show UP very
favorably. 1t is the third time that the
amateurs have played the 1872 game, and
the grand average is far below that of
former years. Poggenburg's high run
of 122 Is second to that of Calvin De-
marest, Isl, made in 1908.

games are played in the copper camp,
has the following 10 say:
'Guiterrez pitched brilliant ball until

singles and two Dagger sent three runs
across the plate. Bob Whaling relieved
him and by good work kept the game
from the fire. Goodman, Adams and
Bob Whaling did some splendid batting

fall and he wanted TO get back to the

weak spots on the team which needs
strengthening and, while Lamar viii
say nothing about playing with his old
team, 1T is known among his friends
that he would not be adverse to playing
the summer season with the locals
Lamar played third base until he
broke a thumb in the Clifton game,
after which he ran the club from the
sidelines. Later he went back to his
cd position but was struck on the head
by batted ball and was in serious
condition in the hospital for several
weeks, causing him TO abandon his
work for the season and return TO mis-
home in California
When he is working good, Lamar Is q
sensational fielder and hitter. He has
copyright on a one-handed scoop OF
ground balls knocked down third base
way and he has the prettiest peg ever
seen on the local field. He also stands
up to the plate like a Lacquer and has
chronic habit OF hitting the ball on the
nose. His batting is needed in the
present lineup of the club and while
third base is his strong suit, he Is
utility man and can play any OF the
outfield positions.

battle should result in one of the best
contests ever pulled off in this coun-

COLD COMFORT

n UR Republican morning contempo-
rary is indeed hard put to it, to
" find comfort in the attitude of the
insurgents of its party, when it at
tempts to argue that Senator Dolliver
in his recent speech in vindication of
his course in the senate, has shown
some doubt of his attitude and a de-
sire to affiliate with the reactionarY
wing of his party. 1t would require a
very imaginative reader indeed to find
any such thing in Senator Delivers
speech, and if he imagined that he had
discovered anything of the kind such
Imagination should have been dis
PEELED by the closing sentences in which
Mr.. Dolliver, after having stated that
Mr.. Aldrich had made plea for the
protection Of rubber in the interests Of
the rubber tire industry, in which one
concern that he instances had in ten
years increased its capital several mil
lions of dollars, closes by saying Il am
through with it. / shall stand here
and fight it, but l will do it as a Re-
publican. l don't care for any politi-
cal fame. have worked for the pub
lie for forty-five years and do not pro-
pose my remaining years shall BE
GIVEN UP TO A DULL CONSENT |
TO THOSE CONSPIRATORS THAT |
WOULD ROB THE PEOPLE TO |
MULTIPLY PRIVATE WEALTH."
As long as Senator Dolliyer refuses
to Consent to those conspirators that |
would rob The people to multiply pri-
vate wealth." it is very safe to say
that he will not find himself in the
ranks of the reactionaries, whose cause
is so strenuously championed by our
Republican morning contemporary, for
the chief end and aim in the political
life of the rcactionares is to advance
in every way the cause of those con-
spirators that would rob the people to
private wealth

TEDDY WINS AGAIN

| q CORE another hit for our Teddy.
Ia The recent press dispatches show
~ that the criticisms of his Guild
hall speech, i'm which he had certain
things to say about the English in
Egypt, were in no way indorsed by the
members of the English government,
who were chiefly concerned in the mat
ter 1t now appears that Sir Edward
Grey, the foreign secretary of the gov
ernment now in power in Great Britain,
announced in parliament THAT Roose-
velt's speech had been communicated
to him before it was delivered. He had
seldom listened to a speech with
greater pleasure. Its friendly intention
was obvious and, taken as a whole. it
was the greatest compliment to the
work of one country ever given by the
citizens of another"
And inasmuch as Mr.. Arthur ]. Bal
four, leader of the opposition. is also
quoted as having expressed Warm ap-
probation of Mr.. Roosevelts sympa-
thetic and kindly treatment of the
subject" it would appear that the
~ ltiNlSiltS VI Illt SpctNIl Will Which we
have been favored by journals that
have their own reasons for disliking
Mr.. Roosevelt, principally because they
or their proprietors, much to their dis
comfture, have at some time in the
past come within the swing of the big
stick, are entirely without foundation.
No doubt Mr. Willie Hearst, who has
been endeaVoring by criticisms of this
speech, wired at great expense to his
yellow papers in this country, to make
himself distinguished for something
else beside being the proprietor of the
worst string of yellow journals that
disgraces the newspapers of his coun-
try, now feels that he has been be-
trayed by the English and left up in
the air, so to speak. and no doubt we
shall now be favored by Mr. Hearst
through the columns of his yellow jour !
nails, with some criticisms of the Eng
lish for lying down before Mr.. Roose- |
welt. But the English can probably !
stand it with more equanimity than can |
the readers of Mr.. Hearst's newspapers |
stand having such slush forced upon |
their attention.
