Stallings, almost broken hearted,
went back to the minors for the sec

Ban Johnson willed it; Ban is absolute
in his bailiwick once before he had
put the bee upon the Georgia planter.
That was some ten years ago after
Stallings had taken the erratic Tigers
of Detroit to second place in a drip
ping drive. Ban believed or imagined
that George was trying to sell out the
American league. He never forgave
him: if he has. no one has learned of
it, They do say that Ban Johnson
forced Farrell to get rid Of Stallings,
Frank signed the big Grief to a two
years contract without consulting the
car. He didn't know that Stallings
stood 50 badly in the graces Of the big
tpoo bah
So StallinGs has taken two strikes
as a major league manager. He's
back there again at the plate with a
new bat, new umpire and against

WEIGHT SCHEDULE

tiqn the boxing centcrs of the world

The trouble with these things is that
whenever anyone submits a new
weight list some one else is ready with
one that il is claimed Is ever so much
better and after a little desultory dis
eussion the older order of things goeth
right along.
A. matter OF fact the New York
schedule IS nothing new. The weight
limits mentioned have been suggested
oyer ana over again during the past
dozen years but never adopted for the
reason that there was no commission
anywhere to take the matter up. Now
that a duly constituted body in con-

There is a shirred collar OF lace about

cd with great care so that they are
