Perry of Yale to
 Be Out For Season
Crack Tackle Breaks Hand and Adds to Eli's Large Hospi-
 tai List

Closely following upon the injury of Scully, Yale's star tackle, who, it was announced yesterday by Head Coach Field, will not play in the Brown game and probably in no game for the rest of the season. Perry, one of the two strongest tackles remaipin g in the squad, and whose work was of the fastest, broke his hand and will not play again this season.
 The accident happened yesterday af- ternoon and Perry's loss will go down as the greatest, aside from that Of Scully, this season. The line was already wobbly, through the injury of Jim Scu1ly, the star tackle. Before Perry's injury yesterday afternoon, it was announced that it was doubtful if Scul1y will be able to play again this season. Scu1ly has a slight con- taken away from the New Haven hospital yesterday afternoon about 6:3O o'clock.
 At the field yesterday afternoon three more were added to the hospital list Perry was the most seriously injured of the three. Of the three injured, two were Varsity men and the third a freshman. Perry's loss, coming with that of Scu11y, is the heaviest Yale has had to suffer this season. Perry had been playing tac- kle for the varsity the greater part of the season.
 When Charlie Paul was injured at the beginning of the season, Perry was showed in, in his place, and play ed in every one of the games up to the contest with West Point. In that game he only played during half of the contest.
 After that Scully was injured and Perry was shifted over to the place of the former. He fared no better than his comrade, as far as luck went and was seriously injured yesterday. In the one scrimmage in which both Paul and Scully played, Perry went in at guard. This move was sig nificant one on the part of the coach- es and showed that 1t was practically assured that Perry would have been one of the first choices for the varsity eleven, if he had not sustained the injury yesterday.
 Perry broke his hand just a few sec- onds before the termination of hard practice game with the freshmen. It is so late in the season now that Perry will not be able to get back into shape even before the Harvard game.

Chief Bender is
 King of TWirIers
Has Captured Laurels So Long Held by Mathew
 son of Giants
(New York Sunl

The claim is set forth in Philadel- phia, and it isn't without merit, that Chief Bender is now the king of pitch- CTS, that he has dethroned Mathewson. .Mathewson's superior, and probably his equal, as a pitcher, never existed, taking into consideration his entire big league record and all the separate details of pitching which a twirler must be master of to be great and which Mathewson is master of. The defeat in the worlds series cannot dim the luster of what Mathewson has done, but that Bender is just now at the head of the pitching brigade and is entitled to be so rated also is true.
 Bender, incidentally, enjoys the dis tinction of having pitched in three different worlds series. He pitched against the Giants in 1905, against the Cubs last year and against the Giants this year. He has pitched sev- en of these games, and his best work was done this year, so that, like Math- ewson, he has long service to strength en his claims to greatness and with ness. Nobody in picking an "all' team for all time just now would leave Bender off after his recent perform ances, and that is another proof of his ability. Not from such 8 team would Mathewson be left off despite his recent lack of success.
 Nothing shows better Renders abil- ity in the most important of games the worlds series-that the fact that in the seven games he has pitched he has held opponents to a total of 13 runs, less than two to a game. That is superb work.

Evers Likely to
 Lead Cincinnati
Report That Cubs Great In. fielder Will Succeed Grif-
 fifth in Redland

According to report received last night from Chicago, Charles w. Mur- phy, owner of the Cubs, has left there for Cincinnati, for a conference with Garry Hermann regarding the Reds next season. It is said that Hermann is desirous of obtaining the services of either Joe Tinker or Johnny Evers as manager Murphy declined either to confirm or deny the report.
 Several weeks ago Hermann caus- ed it to be announced that a "certain famous shortstop' would take Clark Griffith's place as manager of the Cineianati team. Afterward it was said that Hermann had reconsidered the matter and was anxious to retain Griffith. Those plans, however. were upset by the "Old Fox signing a three-year contract to manage the Washington team of the American League. Griffith also bought large block of stock in the Washington club.
 Tn baseball circles last night it! was said that Johnny Evers proba b1y' will be signed to manage the Reds next season, though almost as many req sons for his sticking to the Cubs were advanced as there were for his sign ing to lead the Hermann forces.

BIG LEAGUE GOSSIP

Umpire William Brennan of the Ma tional League, who was one of the arbitrators in the worlds series, has gone on the lecture platform. He is one of the attractions at theatre in St. Paul this week, where he is giv- ing an account of the recent series from an umpire's point of view, as sisted by a number of lantern slides made from photographs.
 Johnny King is reported to have said that he will either be manager of the Rustlers next season or else will play semi-professional ball. Kling is not the great catcher that he once was. and the main reason is that he once quit big league company just as he is proposing to do again.
 A story comes from Chicago that Frank Chance will again play first base for the Cubs next season. It is said that a sporting goods manufac- turer is to make the peerless leader a special headgear which will protect him in case he is again hit by a pitched ball. The only efficient pro- lection would seem to be leather hel- met such as is worn in football. It would be interesting to know whether if a pitcher bounced the ball off this covering Chance would be allowed to take his base.
 When the Chicago papers first inti- mated that Anson was getting along in years that sturdy warrior appeared upon the field wearing a false. gray beard which dropped to the region of his belt. Thomas Lynch, now presi- dent of the National League. was t1mpiring, and Anson held up the game for five minutes arguing that he should be allowed to go to first if he was hit in the whiskers. Lynch firmly declined to allow the point.
 There is a rumor that Fred Clarke, having developed pair of fast out fielderS in Campbell and Carey, will manage the, Pirates from the bench next season.
 It is said that Jimmie Callahan is to be the manager of the Chicago White Sox next year and that he will head the club on a tour of the world in the fall. They will play exhibition games with an all-star team selected and take his players from both the l,a tional and American leagues.
 Otis Crandall has gone to Baltimore as the guest of Wilbert Robinson. Otey and Robbie are going on a shoot ing trip and plan to do about ten days gunning for rabbits and quail.
 Garry Herrmanns scheme of 112- game schedule and then a siXty-game round robin between the two leagues is being revived. At glance it looks like fine proposition from a fans viewpoint and there seems to be no | reason why it couldn't be worked out. Grover Cleveland Alexander, star pitcher of the Phillies, denies that he IS hold-out and says he is ready to sign contract at any figure Fogel may name. AS a matter of fact he will have to sign whether he is ready or not Or else quit organized ball. Michael J: O'Neil has signed to manage the Utica team, succeeding Charles c. Carr. who goes to Kansas City.

NOTES FROM THE WILL
 HAMS PUBLIC SCHOOLS

This week completes the first month of our publ schools, and in our next issue we will publish the names. of all pupils who have been neither absent nor tardy during the month. We understand that more pupils entered school during the week, but we have not been in- formed as to the exact number. It is encouraging. though, to know that our school is still growing.
 The children seem to be in the best of spirits around the school house this year on account of the numerous swings and teeter boards that are in use. Three new swinge and one teeter was added to the number last Saturday.
 Last Monday it was thought that one of the Mexican pupils had de- veloped a mild case of smallpox and to be on the safe side the case was reported to the health officers who took it in charge. The school house wat well fumigated and other precautions taken, and we feel that the scare was "nipped in the bud.'

CATTLE SHIPMENTS
 WILL BE BIG THIS YEAR

That this year will see the big gest cattle shipments ever sent out of Williams and at the best prices for years. is the belief of most of the cattlemen about Williams and Ashfork. The heauy rainfall in northern Arizona during the past year has made the ranges ideal for grazing, there being an abundance of grass at all times. As a result the cattle are in better condition than for years and will go to mar ket we'll fattened. . This means much to the cattlemep, especially in view. of the good prices now pre- vailing, which some expect to go still higher.
 The Bill Campbell outfit is at present engaged in rounding up and will ship from this point. They will be through with the round up about the 9th of October and ex- pect to ship between 250 and 300 head. Like all others, they report good ranges and cattle in excellent shape. The Evans outfit expect to send out large shipment from Ashfork and are now at work on the rouud- | up. Shipments from this point will also be large this year, probably exceeding those of any former year. Within, touple of weeks it IS expected every cattleman in this section of Arizona will be shipping or preparing to ship.
