last Grand Circuit meeting OF the year
here yesterday. Both were odds-on IA
vorites. Ess II. Kay won the Board

The Able landed his tenth straight race

yards in the second mile. The final
quarter of the third mile was timed OFF,
cialIy in 2S seconds. and the last halls in

HATCHEnTES SQUAD
DOWN TO HARD WORK
Coach Magoffin Out for First
Time and a Big Bunch
With Him.

Coach Magoffin was on hand last
night for the first time, and the prac-
tice took on the aspect Of real work.
He kept everybody busy and interested
from start to finish. Instructions were
given in falling on the ball. kicking
and making spiral passes. The men
were divided into skeleton squads and
sent through simple old style plays.
After the practice the men were all
called together and given some good
advice in a heart-to-heart talk by the
coach. He emphasized the absolute
necessity of knowing the rules and Of
regular attendance. A rule quiz will
be held in the near future to clear up
any doubtful points.
Coach Magof1in says that this years
rules place a premium on speed and
headubrk. Weight is no disadvantage
If man has speed with it.
Careful preparation will be made for
Pennsylvania. which will be played
here October I.
Several of the big fellows who have
been awaiting the return of the coach
made their appearance yesterday and re-
ceived the benefit Of his foot ball instruc-
lions. The most promising of the men
who were out yesterday for the first time
are Jones, giant guard. weighing over
NO, who played the game in the Philip
pines, and Smith. the fast end of West
ern High School. Foot ball stock at
George Washington took quite a boost
last night when it was announced that
Cuthbert Farmer. the crack quarterback
OF the high school teams. would be out
this evening. Farmer will try for quar-
ter, and as he was the pick of the high
schools at that position he should be able
to put in a strong bid for the same on
the Hatchetites team. Dave Brewster.

was captain of the team In his last year.
will also make his appearance. Dave.
besides being a speedy man, is wonder
full kicker. 1t Is expected that he will
be tried in the back field. Another new
man is Stevens. who played end in his
scholastic days on the University of YER
mont preparatory school. and in his last
year at college filled the same position
on the college team. 1t is expected that
the number of candidates will be in
creased to about thirty this afternoon.

CURI0 HUNTERS BID HIGH.
All Want Coin on Which Lords
Prayer Is Engraved.

NEW YORK. September 2O.-sev-
eral high bids were made yester-
day to William A. Wilkes Of No. IL
Washington street, Tompkinsville, S. L.,
for a curious and interesting relic Of the
fine work of the famous old engraver, A.
W. Overbaugh of Rutherford, n. J. The
relic is a gold dollar Of the year 1853. in
the center of which, in a circle one-sixth
of an inch in diameter, Overbaugh en-
graved the Lord Prayer.
Mr.. Wilkes was rummaging among his
curios yesterday morning and came upon
the coin. his possession of which he had
forgotten. The inscription could not be
read with the naked eye. but was per-
fectly distinct with the aid Of glasses. At
the bottom Of the circle Overbaugh had
added his name. Mr.. Wilkes recalled how
the engraving was done on a wager many
years ago. None of the big offers made
tempted him to part from the coin.

Joke" ALMOST TRAGEDY.
Autoist bitches Car to Avoid Straw

CANAAN. Conn, September oO.-Prof
Goodwin and family Of Norfolk were

Ashley farms Saturday night while au-
tomobiling that nearly resulted In a
tragedy. Boys stuffed a. suit of clothes
with straw and. tying a string to the
dummy, stretched IL across the road so
that in the evening to the driver OF an
automobile the stuffed figure closely re-
sembled a man.
The Goodwin family. coming along in
an auto. saw the figure. and to prevent
collision with what the professor
supposed was a man. he turned quickly.
ran the auto into a ditch and against a
stone wall, wrecking 1t and throwing
out the occupants. They were all
shaken up. When the affair became
known spoilers were posted in the
roadway to guard against a repetition
Of the offense.

GAMBLERS Use BOMBS
IN THE CHICAGO WAR
Two Places Blown Up and
Three Persons Danger
ousIy Injured.

CHICAGO, September 2O-The. gambling
war which has caused the wrecking OF
thousands of dollars worth of property
and injury to more than twenty persons
during the past two years, was renewed
in Chicago last night when two places
were wrecked by bombs Nos. IS and 80
That no one was killed in either explo-
sion is regarded as marvellous.
One of the bombs was exploded in the
rear of Frieberg's notorious dance hal
and saloon, located on 22d street, in the
heart of the levee. This place is man
aged by Ike Bloom and owned by Alder
man John ]. Coughlin. Chicago's poet
Of passion and known throughout the
world as 1.-The Bathouse.''
One man and two women were danger
ously wounded by the bomb which wreck
ed the dance hall, and one of the women
is supposed to be dying.
Another Explosion.
While the police and fire department
were responding to calls from the 2od
street district, another bomb wrecked q
saloon at 63d street and Cottage Grove
avenue now managed by Harry Cava.
naugh. but formerly owned by John Bren-
nan and Paddy" Crimes
These men are high up in Chicago's
gambling fraternity and are closely allied
with the same political faction dominated
by "Bathhouse" John Coughlin and Hin
made thus far and the police. as in the
other cases. seem powerless to solve the
mysteries of the bomb throwing.
The bomb explosions last night have
thrown CONSERVATION into the. camps OF
both the gamblers and the politicians
This Is the first time that any attempt
has been made to wreck any of the places
controlled by the men higher up" 1t
shows conclusivey that the gamblers
outside of the ring have determined to
carry their war into the camp of the
inner circle.
Every one is wondering who will be the
next.
The explosion in Freibergs dance hall.
which caused the serious injury of three
persons, occurred shortly after { o'clock.
This place usually is one of the gayest
resorts in Chicago. and has headquarters
for women and gamblers who are mem
bers Of the so-called protected circle.
Interior of Place Wrecked.
There were only eight or ten persons in
the place at the time, but if the ex-
plosion had occurred two hours later the
hall would have been crowded. The in
terror of the place was wrecked. tables
were overturned and all the windows
broken.
Not ten minutes after the explosion at
this resort large part of the South Side
was shaken by the blast in the rear of
Cavanaugh's saloon. Windows for sew
eral blocks were broken and the rear
walls of the three saloons adjoining
Cavanaugh's place were blown out. Be-
sides a few minor cuts and bruises, no
one was injured.
These two blasts make a total of thirty
nine bombs that have been thrown in the
gambling war since Fred A. BuSse be-
came mayor of Chicago and a so-called
inner ring of gamblers has been allowed
to dominate the gaming field in Chicago.
With one exception no arrest was made.
and the police at that time tried to lay it
to a labor dispute and the accused men
were acquitted.

SPORTING COMMENT.
BY J. ED GRILLo.

The slump Of the Nationals cannot be
blamed on the fact that Jim McAleer
is trying out youngsters. for 1t was under
way before he had any Of his recruits
to report to him. 1t is just one Of those
periods when a team seems to be unable
to win for which there is no accounting.
On the face of their performances the
Nationals greatest fault of late has been
their inability to hit. There has been
general falling OFF in this respect, and
with it the pitching, too, has taken
slump, as it usually does under such con-
ditions
The remainder Of the season will give
McAleer a chance to get a fairly good
line on three youngsters who are wanted
to fill important positions on the team.
There remains about three weeks of the
season, and by playing Cunningham,
RalstOn and SomerlOt in every one OF
the games to the finish he should come
pretty near knowing what to expect OF
this material next season.
And yet even month of playing may
not show a player in his true form. How
often does it happen that some estab-
lished star goes for weeks without show
ing anything, and yet he is not disturbed
and gradually comes back into his stride.
With a youngster 1t is different. If he
outset of his career in fast company he
is very apt to be let out without having
had an opportunity to show himself at
his best.
incidentally, it should not be forgotten
that neither of the three youngsters Is
being asked to fill the shoes of star.
In fact. it would not require a very SEN
sational performer to make good in the
positions which have been allotted to
Cunningham, Ralston and SomerlOt.
1t is by no means assured that the
worlds series will be played this year.
for there is danger of inclement weather
preventing the series If Stanley Robson,
owner of the st. Louis club. insists upon
played out it was adopted
This would keep the season of the old
league in force until almost the middle
sort Of weather would be prevailing at
that time.
When President Lynch was instructed
by the national commission few weeks
ago to adjust matters so that the Ma
tional League season would end about the
same time as does the American, it was
supposed that this ended the matter, but
there has been no report by President
Lynch since then anent the matter and
so far as the public knows Stanley Rob-
ison is still standing pat which means
that if there Is a worlds series it will be
played very late in the fall.
From a sporting point of view Robison's
position on the schedule is untenahle,
and yet inasmuch as he did not favor

In, San Francisco, which Is to be dropped
by Pitcher Gregg. another Nap recruit.

Catcher Sweeney of the Highlanders
split the fcref1nger of his right hand in
last Saturdays game and Staliings wired
yesterday that the great young backstop
would be out OF the game indefinitely.
Catcher Blair of the champion Roches-
ters will report to Stal!ings In quick or
der. Blair has caught nearly $50 games
for Rochester this year and practically
leads the Eastern League In batting. He
was recently purchased after being scld
last year by the New York Americans to
the Eastern League champions. In let
ter to the New York club officials Man.
ager CAMEL says that Blair is a revela-
ton and will be one Of the greatest catch
ers in base ball next year.
Manager McGraw has announced pri-
vately that in future he will adopt the
tactics of the Highlanders' owner in
building up the Giants with young play
ers McGraw says he realizes that old
ambition that youngsters show. and that
the Giants scouts will scour the country
for new talent Of promising nature.
McGraw is averse TO adopting radical
methods, but the success of the Hillmen
has opened his eyes to the fact that
players who are coming are preferable
to those who are on the down grade
The Giants scouts are William Lush, the
old Cleveland outfielder, and the veteran
Adrian G. Arson.
1t is rumored in base ball circles that
Harry Davis. the veteran first baseman
of the Athletics, will manage the Cleve-
land or ST. Louis Americans next year.
Davis has been playing major league ball
since 1898. and is rapidly nearing the end
Of his diamond career. Connie Mack has
been grooming new first baseman
named Houser this year. and is said to
be willing to release Davis outright II
the latter can land managerial berth.
The Cleveland and ST. Louis clubs of the
American League are in search of new
team handlers and both are said to he
considering Davis. who is player OF
wide experience and knows the Mack
methods like book. Davis is intelligent
and enjoys an excellent reputation. He
will have the Endorsement of Mack and
President johnson if he decides to make
a change. and there seems to be little
doubt that he will develop into a winning
leader, no matter where he may decide
to go. ,-...4
