ENLIVEN GAME AT TULSA

TULSA, OKLA, June 6.-Four first
fights, the ejectment from the grounds
and failing of the umpire and the fainting
of a ball player who was in the grand
stand served as a prelude to yesterdays
game between Tulsa and Okmugee, of
the oklahoma State league. 1t was ladies'

First some one questioned the sobriety
of Umpire Mckee. Then came fsticuff
between the umpire and owner Blec6ley,
of the Tulsa club. Umps Mckee came
out second best, but had sufficiently re-
covered when Manager Gardner, es the

and who, Mckee alleges, assaulted him
after yesterdays game, came on the field
to engage him in battle At this stage
spectators swarmed on the field. and Nc
kee was carried bodily into the dressing
room under the grandstand, where two
Okmulgeeans acted as his opponents IN

In the absence of the umpire two spec

game started. 1t had not progressed far,
however, before Mckee was on the field
again, and exchanging blows with Man

" CHATTANOOGA, TENN. June
6.-The second round of the
championship flight and the
first round of the first, second,
third. fourth and fifth flights of the
eleventh annual tournament of the
Southern Golf association began
this morning. H. M. Block. of At

promptly at $3.50 o'clock. The
weather was cloudy and rain

as the place for the 1913 tourney.
In the matter of officers H. f.
Smith, of Nashville, was reelected
president and j. c. Ryan, of Nash

of Atlanta, was unanimously re-
elected vice president.

the game. and then, just before the
umpires called, play ball" they
gave an exhibition Of plain and
fancy marching and a sabre drill
that was wonder.
Then came Hlustrious Potentate
John Hynds, who threw the first
ball And be it said. to the lasting
honor of Illustrious Potentate
Hynds. he threw vastly better
first ball than the average.
BY no stretch of Imagination
could an umpire have called it
strike-if Johnston hadn't obliging-
ly hit at it. 1t wasn't even near.
But it didn't roll along the ground,
nor did it sail over the catcher's
head. which was out of the ordi-
nary.
One special feature of the day
was the fact that the Shriners had
offered SIS to the Atlanta player
who made the most brilliant play.
Al O'Dell won 1t in a canter and he
didn't waste any time about doing
it, 1t was in the third inning when
Johnston hit a hard semi liner out
O'Dell's way. All ran for it awhile
and then flew a bit. When he had
reached an altitude of six feet or so
he stuck out both hands grabbed
the bah. fiuttered a bit in mid air
and slowly settled back to earth.
1t was worth the SIS.
"KID" DONAHUE was one of the
bright lights of the game
He didn't hit any and his fielding,
while excellent, was not brilliant.
AT throwing, though, he was a Won
der. Four Pelicans tried to steal snd
four Pelicans failed miserably. Ev-
cry throw was sent away fast and
was winged to exactly the right
spot. Haigh, the New Orleans
catcher, also threw well and per-
formed creditably.

IITF we lose today know what's
the matter with us, said
Charley Hemphil before yes
terday's 81 defeat, ITS because
we need more work. Some teams
do better with occasional rests. but
the Atlanta team this year needs
seven games week, every week
to keep in shape We have pitch
ers who need work to be good. The
bad weather lately has kept us
from getting right"
This is offered as the Extenuat-
ing circumstances, which is anoth-
er title for our old friend Colonel
A. n. Alibi
The Crackers lost. but they lost
good game. a corking game as far
as fielding stunts went. The Peli-
can fielders went plum crazy" and
pulled stuff that ought to land them
In Milledgeville. Spencer, for ex-
ample, went twice up the right
field bank after balls, and once he
fell down balanced on one shout
der. caught the ball, rolled over
down the bank, but HELD THE
BALL.
ANY team is hard TO beat when 1t
is going like that, but It is especial
~ hard to stop when 1t has pitch
er working as Ducky Swami was
working yesterday. This lad, who
s. nd nE
fident as he is old, had the Crack
ers feeding from his mit.
Maybe it was the old "pygmy
pitcher hoodoo." vanished up and
put in running order for the 1912
season. In years past the Crack
ers could drub the big guys. and
the bigger they were the harder
they fell; but the little ones were
links. Gordon Hickman, no bigger
than a self respecting flea, used to
make the Crackers look like jokes.
And now along comes Swami,
who is little larger than Hickman
and probably a good bit older and
he hands the locals some Of the
old time stuff
The Crackers sent their smallest
pitcher, Tommy Atkins, against the
Pelicans, but it was of no avail.
Atkins pitched first-class game.
If it had not been for one error he
would have held Franks men to
two runs, and that's surely all you
can reasonably ask Of pitcher 1t
has been Tommy's curse for years
that his teams wouldn't make any
runs for him and the hoodoo seems
still to hover over his head
IT seemed odd not TO see Mana

acquainted with a missionary to
Africa who told me himself that he
had raised $4,000 for his mission,
and that he had been promised ST.
500 for a boat to take his little mig
gers boat riding on the Congo.
Would that kind Of home religion
lists inspire the so-called Christians
of America to furnish boats to give
the poor children all around us an
outing and a boat ride? Oh, no!
There is a certain kind of pious peo-
pie that prefer a soft snap when they
see it, when it is in the name Of relig-
ion. You can set every man down
as a religious fraud who advocates or
contributes to any such policy.
Scores of religions have originated in
graft or fraud. AS proof, l will cite
one know something about:
In my early boyhood, my parents
resided near the north line Of Yer
mont, near where lived man by the
name Of Miller. He claimed that
God had set the day when the faith
full should be taken bodily up to
heaven. He had his followers, and,
before the day set, they turned all
their property over to him, and on
that day they were dressed in their
white robes, some on house tops
ready to ascend to heaven, and on
that same day Miller was building a
stone wall around his farm. That
was the origin of Adventism Is it
any wonder that thousands do not
patronize the churches, when scores
join church to get into society and
show off their fine clothes? Such
pretensions only disgust honest peo-
pie.

anticipating raid against slavery,
and at the close of the dinner, in
private chat, I asked him why he
contemplated the risk in interfering
with the laws of other states. His
response was, with good deal of
vim: God Almighty has appointed

once that he was a religious fanatic.
Is it not a fact that fanaticism,
under the name of religion, has muir
dered it's millions in all ages of the
world? 1 would only refer to one
instance to prove the assertion, by
referring to the millions murdered by
the Catholic Church in the name Of
religion.

it is simply graft that twenty-five
