TWISTING THE LANGUAGE.
English Has Received Some Severe
Jolts In the Philippines.

Baby talk is highly developed IAN

house boys. But it usually conveys the
meaning when accompanied by express

performance of the command speaks
well for native institution.
Spanish construction of English
words Is another twist that our poor
language gets in the Philippines. NO

Brooklyn team, take charge of the
Newark Club. That is the way get
the story, and I am giving 1t to
you, my readers. for just what 1t is
worth. / know that Smith has had
more than one talk with Mr.. Fogarty,
of the Jersey City Club, and 1 know
that Mr.. Fogarty would be tickled to
have Harry manage his team. AS to
BIZ Dahlen, only know that there
is desire over In Brooklyn for a
change in management. and that it
is so strong Mr.. Ebbets and his as
soclates may not be able to stem the
tide of criticism. In which event, 1t
is likely that Dahlen. of whom Mr..
Ebbets is a great admirer. will come
over here and that Smith will be al
over here and Smith win be allowed
to go to Jersey City.
AS successor of Dahlen, I have
been tipped off that Hugh Jennings,
OF Detroit, is much desired. In order
to bring about such a condition con-
siderable dickering would be neces-
sary. Jennings would have to be got
ten out of the American League,
which would not be an easy task, al

ment will be appreciated. 1t is a
noble task you have set yourself to
accomplish. Mr.. p, and you deserve
praise for your effort. With the aid
of the anti-cycling and outlaw
boosting organ you ought to be able
to do big things for the game.
Teaming is a shame and combina-
lions are despicable, and Powers is
going to rid those detrimental inter
ests--even If he has to keep those
responsible for them out of the
Garden.
Well, the last time l had a talk
with MacFarland, which was just be-
fore he left for the Boston grind,
which, by the way. he is making a
big success, he told me that IL p.
Powers desired his services In con-
nection with the New York six-day
race the said p. Powers would have
to send for him. That is Macs
position, so 1t won't be necessary for
Powers, as he is quoted In the anti
cycling and OUTLAW" boosting organ
as SO ying, to keep MacFariand out of
Madison Square during the promised
honest grind. Mac" has said that
he wouldn't be over there unless
Powers shorld request 1t, and Powers,
we are told, has said that Mac" will
not be allowed in the Garden, SO
when it comes to an issue one or the

won't be able to make his boast good.
The game in Newark is the big game
and the six-day game is the bunk
game. To allow Powers to rule the
cycling situation would mean its ruin.
O.
E. Collins, the pace-follower, is
sorry he ever Joined the OUTLAWS"
and is sick and tired being referred
to as an outlaw" He has asked for
return to the ranks of the 'regu-
lars" with the prospects not alto
gether hopeless. AS Elmer Collins.
the American champion pace
follower, he was always very proud of
himself, but as e. Collins. outlaw"
he doesn't even like himself. A couple
of the other boys who transgressed
would like to get back in good stand

Through an error it was stated in
the Evening Star last night that the
billiard match at the Essex Billiard
Academy on Broad street between
Koji Yamada and Harry Cline
would be held last night. That was
a mistake on our part and we wish
to apologize to our readers for the
error. Mr.. Yamada, who is a grand
player and who gave Champion
Willie Hoppe a great battle in this
city last week, will have in Mr.. Cline
a very worthy opponent. Cline de-
feated Hoppe in New York the other
night, and this would seem to indi-
cate that the match tonight should
be a highly interesting one.

Harry Smith, who won a pennant
for Newark last year in the Interna-
tional League, doesn't want to play
here any more. This information we
received from an authoritative source
late this morning. Manager Smith,
We are-toid, wants to make q change.
and the most cutting cut of all, he
wants to go to Jersey City. That Is
fact. and even today. / am told. he
is negotiating with Thomas Fogarty
for the position OF manager of the
Shelters. In all events, the meeting
has been called for this afternoon.
and if Smith and F'ogarty can come
to terms the chances are likely that
Harry will guide the destinies of
Jersey City next year. In order TO
secure clean bill of health from the
Newark Club, Smith, of course, Will
have to talk the matter over with
the owners. Harry claims, 1t Is said,
that he is not the property of the
Tigers, but those who are up In base
ball law say that he Is. Smith de-
clares. l am told. that he signed to
manage the Newark Club for one
year only, and that he hasn't signed
for next year, and that he hasn't
been asked to sign for. next year
That Mr.. Ebbets and his associates
will allow Smith to go to Jersey City
is just possible. For one reason, a
dissatisfied manager would never do.
and for another reason, 1t is said
that Mr.. Ebbets is anxious to have
Pin pahlen. now manager of the

other may have to give in. Whoever
1t is, we'll know, and I will tell you.
On general principles. would have
to have q bet on MacF'arland. He
proved himself the gamest man In
the deal during war times. and, just
from observation, 1t is dollars to
douehnuts that Messrs. Mih'on' and
Uprercu would rather have MacFar-
lands good viii and his services than
enything p. Powers could do for
them.
G
AS between mcfarland and Powers,
Million and Uppercu will likely have
to make a choice. Powers, by his re-
cent actions. has shown q tendency
to be bigger than the entire cycling
game. He has talked In a blow-hard
manner of what he intends to do and
he has made declarations that do not
sound well at all coming from him.
To get right down to cases. Powers
hasn't single, personal financial in
terest in the bike game. He Is man
aging the New York six day race this
year for Mr. Uppercu. who stands to
lose a lot of money, no matter how
large the. crowds may be. and there
Ia a bare chance, let me tell you, that
the race may not be finished. He has
an option. 1t is said, on a certain
portion of the stock in the Cycle Rae
ing Association, and MacFarland has
