MARQUARD REWARDS
SHERIFF FOR HIS
HOLDING WARRANT
New York Officer Waits Un-
til After Rube Wins
His Game.

NEW YORK. Aug. 12-The presenta-
ton to Sheriff julius hamburger of New
York city OF a New National League
ball bearing the autograph in ink of
every member OF the Giants has
brought to light little story in which
Rube Marquard and the sheriff figure.
Rube was the cause of the presentation
and his name appears prominently on
the ball.
About a month ago the sheriff's Of
hce issued an execution against the
'southpaw' on a judgment for $40.
Sheriff Hamburger, accompanied by
three deputies, proceeded with the pa
pers to the polo grounds. The players
were about to lock horns with the Chit
cago Nationals and Rube was warm
ing up. The sheriff is a fan" and
when he sized up the situation he sat
down with his deputies and watched
Rube win his game before the execu-
tion was presented. Rube promptly
paid the bill. and so appreciated the
sheriff's for bearance in delaying SER
vice that he started the autograph bail
rolling.

Grand Rapids Favored
For 1918 Carnival

PEORIA. ILL.,, Aug. 12.-Many of the
officials of the Central States Amateur
Rowing Association believe that Grand
Rapids. Mich, will be the scene Of the
1913 regatta. The choice seems 10 be
between the Grand Rapids Boat and
Canoe Club and the Lincoln Park Boat
Club Of Chicago.
short time ago Michael Begley,
president of the Central States Associa-
tion, stated that Grand Rapids would be
an ideal place for the event. The one
bad feature which may prove a handi-
cap though. is the. fact that the dis
tance Is too great
The Lincoln Park Boat Club of Chi
cago is also being considered but
some OF the regatta officials are not
lin favor of scheduling races on the
lagoon which fronts the Windy City
clubs grounds Where the next regatta
VIII be Is pretty hard question to de-
eide, but rumors claim that Grand
Rapids seems to be favorite.
