STANDING OF THE CLUBS.
SPORTING NOTES.

L
hination has a lawsuit in Australia and
for that reason the departure OF the
Boston heavyweight is delayed wan
ager Woodman wrote that It would DC
| impossible for his man to meet JeanneIte
on their appointed date, July ~ Inc
neople and friends of Langford at Bos'
ton have not yet been able to ascertain
the reason Of the falling out,
Norman Eberfeld, according to re-
mort handed from the national committee
last Saturday, was ordered to repors
with the Milwaukee club OF the American
association Norman still has years OF
playing left in him.
For the first active service in two years
Lou Criger went behind the bat the
other day for the st. Louis Browns. 1t
might be a good idea for old Cy Young
to stick near at hand.
Bob Gardner, the Yale man that won
the pole vault at Philadelphia last Sat
urdav and broke the worlds record by
clearing over thirteen feet, is also a
clever golf player member OF the glee
club and one OF the leading students in
his studies at the school. His class has
voted that he is the handsomest man in
the university.
Back in 1890 Jack Luby OF the Chicago
team made what is now considered the
worlds record of twenty straight VIC
tories. II is the ambition Of Marquard
to break the old record. He has the
support of MeGraw and the rest OF the
team behind him.
Manager Stall of the Red Sox is look
ing upon Van Dyke of the Broekton club
of the New England league as Il promis-
ing man. 1t is said that the Boston
team has strings on him. He has won
nine out of eleven games so far this
year.
Harry Jeffries has been chosen as ref
cree for the h-Americaus bout, which
is to take place at Baltimore June 10.
Gotch should win the bout, but not with
ease.
The base stealing and pitching records
are the reason that the Giants are hold
ing such a commanding lead in the Ma
tional league. They are also strong with
the stick, fourteen men batting over .274.
They have a total of 10 for stolen
bases.
Roger Bresnahan is a strict discipline
rian, and yet he treats every man on
his team with eminent fairness. One Of
the big feathers in his hat is a victory
over his old teammates, the Giants.
George HORNE, the worlds champion
high Jumper is in New York and win
STAY there for the rest of the week,
and on Saturday he will go to Boston
to take part in the Eastern tryouts.
HORNE is ) it. II in. tall, so he can
clear a distance eight inches above his
head.
Magee of the Philadelphia Nationals
has been playing Of late with a small
bone broken in one Of his hands. This
necessarily shoyes most of the work onto
the other hand. At that, Magee is max
ing some Of the other outfielders sit up
and take notice.
Last year the New York Highlanders
found the Detroit Tigers about the east
est picking in the league. 1t was said
that about all they had to do was to
put on uniforms, but this year IT has
been just the opposite.
Mike Murphy says he has no idea of
giving up training for living and the
Quaker Athletes are glad. There never
was more happy man than Murphy
after his Penn boys had carried OIL the
intercollegiate honors last Saturday.
Vean Gregg of the Maps has certainly
struck his pace, and it is an even bet
that he equals his record of last season
Yesterday he won another game against
the strong Boston team.
If the quarantine at Norwich univer-
sitv is raised this week, Manager Oscar
Ii. Ray of the baseball team intends to
play about five games before graduation.
For one of the games, he is negotiating
with the Italian Athletic club of this
city.
Big Tom Kehoe was elected captain of
the Fordham university baseball team
Monday for next season. He has been
one of the dependable players of the
Bronx team and is one of the most popu-
lar athletes at Fordham.
"Jack" Warner. the old time Giant
catcher and few times seen in Bur-
lington suit during the reign of the old
Northern league, who has been managing
the Poughkeepsie team of the New York
New Jersey league, paid off his players
Monday and returned to New York. Fail
ure to secure desired grounds is the rea-
son of Warmers failure. The other mag
mates in the league are undecided as to
what city they shall charter the Pough-
