YANKEE ATHLETES STRANDED

Unable to Leave British Isles.

New York. Aug. 1s.-Mel Shappard.
James F. Meredith. and Donald Lippin-
colt. noted athletes and members OF the
winning American team at Stockholm.
are stranded in Glasgow, without funds
with which TO engage passage home. and
in such circumstances that they will be
compelled to find jobs on the other side
unless financial aid comes from friends
over here.
This report was brought to New York
by the purser OF the steamship Caledonia.
which arrived to-day. According to the
purser. the three athletes went aboard
the Caledonia, expecting to return On
her, but were shown that the return
tickets furnished them were not good
after August 10. They were unable to
scrape together the passage money and
had to stay behind
The purser said the athletes had been
competing in athletic meets in Scottish
towns for several days, but could not
take money for that work because they
are amateurs.

BATTLE AXE NOW
SURE OF TITLE
Victory Over Southern Bell Club
Clearly Establishes Supremacy
of Parker's Pets.

Richmond. Va. Aug. 1s.-By defeating
the Southern Bell yesterday the Battle
Axes became the undisputed champions
of the Capital City League. The Col
Iegians defeated Ashland. making the
standing for pennant honors the same
as last week. and the Battle Axes are
the winners, as was predicted last sun
day ~
1t was expected at. the start of the
season that the race in this league
would be one of the hardest races ever
seen among amateur baseball teams.
This was certainly the case, for the Col
leglans and Battle Axes have been TAX
ing advantage of every opportunity to
win from the start of the season to
the finish.
There has been much talk about the
various means used by the two teams
and a great deal of wranGling has been
done among the fans and players Of all
leagues IN regards to the way things
have broken. When the Collegians were
leading everybody accused the officials
OF the league and the commission of
throwing everything in the way of this
team, and things were the same when
the Axes took the lead.
All of this kicking and wrangling
while II was mighty unpleasant seemed
to keep the interest in the game at the
very highest pitch, and brought the fans
out to see for themselves what was
going on. These faithful followers found
that the games themselves were played
strictly on the merit OF the players and
were not thrown, as had been supposed.
The season is over now. and the Bat
tie Axes are the champions of the
league. Everybody has buried the
hatchet., and all managers and players
will pull for the Axes in the intercity
series, provided they represent Rich

WHISPERTELEPHONE
LATEST INVENTION.
ytopian Prophecies Of Novelists
Are About to Be Realised in
Some Respects.

London. Aug. ia telephone that
promises to falnn some Of the Utoplan
prophecies OF imaginative novelists--a
telephone that talks to you clearly and
distinctly as you sit motionless in your
CHARTS at Present. workmg1fn 1fni jbnild-
ing not stones throw from Pfccadilly
circus.
The present need for speaking-or
shouting-down a mouthpiece will be OBJ
Waited by the new loud-talking tele-
phone. You will be able to walk about
the room and talk in ordinary conversa-
tional tones, or even whisper. A little
instrument like a bellpush collects and
carries your words. and the person to
whom you are talking-without taking
up a receiver, without lifting a finger
hears as distinctly as though you were
only a yard away.
Your voice comes from another little
piece of apparatus-a box with a per-
forated opening-and when that appara-
tus is fixed In the wall. 30 that only the
opening Is visible. one is ready to believe
that the babble machine, born In the
Imagination Of II. G. Wells, has been
made real a century too soon.
The inventor Of this loud-talking tele-
phone Is W. Kennedy-Daurie Dickson,
who for many years was one Of Edisons s
helpers, and yesterday he gave q group
Of newspaper men an opportunity to test
his invention. A reporter stood in one
room. with the little push-button-like ap-
paratus before him on a table. and in
another, some distance away, Mr.. Dick
son or his assistant spoke, shouted. and
whispered as they moved about.
A whisper uttered five or six yards
away from the transnitter came as
clearly as an ordinary speaking voice In
the same room. So greatly is the sound
OF the voice magnified that the ordinary
tones, spoken closely into the receiver.
as with the ordinary telephone, seemed
like a desfening shout to the listener in
the other room
