Where He Posted His Letter

A young Reuben from Kentucky
blew into Washington the other day
with bunch Of wealth which he had
recently acquired. He didn't know
much about the city and this was
soon exemplified. He wrote a letter
to the friends in Berryville and in
closed a $40 bill in it, then calmly
walked out of his hotel and dumped
that letter in one Of the waste paper
boxes that hang on the lamp posts. A
gentleman standing near, rather curl
GUS to know why he had done this
asked him if he knew that that was
a waste paper Eox and not a letter
box, and you just ought to have seen
the way that RUDE scratched the
melon rinds, orange peel peach seeds,
ETC., out of that box He rescued his
letter all right, but it didn't look a
bit pretty.

MORAN=COLUNS BATTLE WILL BE
A FEATURE OF BICYCLE CARNIVAL

Willie Lorenz. the European title
holder. ard Jackie Clark, the lingpin
of the Australian riders. will be the big
features of the preliminary events to
the long grind.
The arrival of LorenZ and Saldow on
the Prina Friedrich Wilhelm yesterday
morning stirred up more interest in
cycle racing circles here than has the
appearance of any European team for
many years. Lorenz's wonderful repu-
tation as a sprinter and also the fact
that he and Saldow have won one six
dey acc in Berlin and finished second
ir another has brought him worldwide
fame, and cycle racing experts have
teen anxiously waiting a chance TO
lu5k him over. Frank Kramer was one
OF the first on the job. when Lorens
and his teammate arrived at Walls
burg. to look them over. Owing to the
snow-storm. the track was in such bad
condition that riding upon it was M
rcssible. but a large force was at worl:
acting the course into shape, and this
afternoon every one of the six-day
riders will be banging it out in prac-
tise spins.

UMPIRES TO
BE DRAFTED
LIKE PLAYERS

Umpires in the future will be
drafted Just the same as players. This
latest progressive move in organized
ba seball is one that is bound to beneht
both the leagues and the arbitratofs
In the past it was necessary for an UNI
pire TO obtain his release from a small
before he had a chance TO draw
better pay and show his real worth Ill a
larger league.
IT is lust as fair to an umpire as to a
PLAYER that Ire be drafted, and this MAJ
i'm a measure solve the umpire problem,
for the big leagues will be able to get
the very best.

which had only been a agu one IN
Neely's mind.
Wonder if the day will come when big
eagues will hire scouts to go out ane
look over umpires, and the umpires Will
have to go South for training, just as
has been suggested. The new arbiters
might be tried out in the Southern ex-
hibition games. but they are Il

MIKE GIBBONS
TOO CLEVER
FOR COFFEE
WeIterweight Nearly Had Mid
dleweight Opponent Out
Several Times.

NEW YORK, Dec. 6.-Aike Gibbons.
of ST. Paul. a welterweight, had the
better of Walter Coffey, the California
middleweight, in every round of their
t~en-round bout at the Fairmont A. @.
last night. Several times Gibbons ap-
peared to have Coffey on the verge OF
a knockout, but each time the bell in
%tervened.
The first round opened in a peculiar
manner. AT the sound of the opening
bell both fighters tented and eaca
landed a clean left punch to the jaw.
Several times in the fourth, sixth,
eighth, ninth and tenth rounds Gibbons
had Coffey in a bad way, but by hold
ing Coffey managed to save himself,
and there was not a knockdown
throughout the entire fight.
The wonder of the fight to the spec
tators was not that Gibbons won but
that Coffey managed TO stay the ten
rounds. He was dazed and bewilder3t
from the second round to the end. In
the second Gibbons caused him to wop-
BILE on his legs from the effects of 6
terrific swing to the jaw. Coffey was
weak at the end and the 1inal bell was
a welcome sound to him. lie was sim
ply o~utclassed. Gibbons being much
faster and being more accurate in his
judgment of blows.

Rube Kissinger and Bill Abstein
Have Been Sold to Mem.
phis Club.

Two Eastern League veterans will be
missing from the Jersey City lineup
next year. Larry Schlafly has begun
the w~eeding-cut process by selling RUDE
Kissinger and Bill Abstein to the Mem
phis Club of the Southern League. The
sale was outright. Kiss:nger was an
Eastern League landmark, being a star
several years at Buffalo before he was
traded to Jersey City. The change
seemed to benefit RUDE. for he led the
league pitchers the following season
with the Pests.
Abstein's career has been marked by
its ups and downs. He was with
Shreveport in the same league as Menu
phis before Providence drafted him
From Providence he went to Pittsburg
and played on the worlds champion
Pirates. Thence he was traded to st.
Louis and he wound up with Jersey
city. Quite a drop from a worlds
champion team to the cellar champions
Of a class A league.
Jack Ryan VS.. Jersey City Club is a
case that viii be very prominent at the
Eastern League meeting in New York
on Monday. Ryan will be given a
chance to make his plea before the
Eastern League magnates, and the
matter will be decided as amicably as
possible. If Ryan insists OH taking
the ease to higher courts the powers
that be in the Eastern League will do
their best to hav Ryan put out of or
ganized baseball for spiking Umpire
Jack Doyle.
While the meeting place has not been
definitely named, it will probably take
place at the Hotel Victoria, where last
years meeting was held. President
Ed Barrow was at the Victoria, and it
has a good lobby for the notables who
always congregate at these eonelayes.
