MANAGERIAL JOB
SESEVERS To
JOIN WORRYCLUB
BY Davenport.

~ HICAGO, July 14.-"What does
it mean to a ball player to as
sumo the responsibilities of the
nanagership of ball club"
This very pointed Interrogation was
put up directly to Johnny Evers, pres
cnt leader Of the Cubs.
1T means lot Of worry" said John,
and the expression on the TrOjan'S
face as he gave vent to the words
more than told the story.
Being simply ban player, one who
is told what to do and when to do 1t,
is fine business, particularly if one is
able to do as he is told the proper
time, but jumping from that position
to one where it becomes necessary TO
give the orders ard know just when
and where a thing should be done
and by whom, is a different matter
Evers a Changed Man.
Evers' face is a Veritable score
board. Glance at it after game that
the Cubs have won, and you can al
playing about his countenance that
lells the tale more plainly than the
tape.
If, however. the Cubs have lost, the
worried expression on Johns face tells
the tale more plainly than figures.
The manager hin of the Cubs has
made a changed man of EverS. He Is
restless and continually worried. He
sleeps but little nights, smokes al
most necessarily, and is simply a
bundle Of quivering nerves
This is true with practically all OF
he new managers IN the National
League, with the exception, perhaps
of Joe Tinker.
Here is one boss who is taxing
Kings as they come. living an easy,
mple life, and is Always looking on
he bright side
Makes Pals of His Men.
Joe makes companions Of his men.
f one of the Reds max a rank bob
lie Joe has little 20 say about it on
he field.
Evers uursues a different method.
the pitcher seems to be going bad
ohm walks in from his path at second
nd tells the delinquent that it is time
or him to either smoke up or get
nIt. Opirion differs as to the advisa-
.:lity Of this method but John seems
O be getting results. while JOe's club
still down in the r'lt.
Miller Husgins i another upon
vhom the mar Igerial duties have
eighed heavily. When the season
.pened HueEins was one of the mosl
leasant. anable little fellows one
would care to meet
The Cards started off like a bunch
# year olds, and Miller could see
nothing but the silver lining, but as
the season waxed stronger the Cards
slumped and the cloud lost its glitter
rg lining, Huggins rapidly lost thai
s.sfnl disposition and is now fight.

LOCAL FIGHT
FANS MAY Be
BUNKED AGAIN
little Chance of White-AbeI Go,
Carded for Friday Night,
Being a Success.
BY w. S. Farnsworth.

n HARLEY WHITE who is sched-
uled to fight Jake Abel at the
Auditorium Armory Friday
eight was billed by the promoter to
arrive in Atlanta this morning.
He hasn't arrived.
Abel according to the promoter,
was to have arrived this morning.
He hasn't arrived.
According to the promoter there
will be three ten-round fights Fri
day night. Abel is to meet White
in the final bout. In the others
Young may hook up with Charley
Lee, while Eddie Hanlon may meet
Terry Nelson.
According to the promoter the show
will be staged under the auspices of
the Fifth Regiment Band Said band
needs new uniforms.
We hope they get them.
However, the promoter who is stag
Ing the bouts for the band" Friday
plight is the same promoter who has
bunked Atlanta fight fans time and
again.
He is the promoter who staged
the two fake fights that Carl Morris
participated in here. He is the pro-
moter. who swOre right up to the
minute the Young Saylor-Joe Thomas
fight was to start that SaylOr was in
town, and then substituted a rank
third -rater, Yankee Schwartz.
He is the promoter who allowed the
Abe Attell- Benny Kaufman fight to
go eight rounds. His referee, at the
suggestion of the police. had the good
judgment to stop this fake at the end
Of the eighth.
But this same promoter did not
give the fans back their money. And
he didn't pay Attell the $3.50 guaran-
tee.
This same promoter declared to the
newspa perS in Atlanta that Attell had
faxed in his opinion.
Yet he wired to Bat Masterson, of
The Morning Telegraph, in New York,
as follows:
Attell- Kaufman bout here to-
night was stopped by police be-
cause Kaufman refused to fight
Attell back. 1t was a one-man
fight, Attell trying to fight and
Kaufman covering up. 1t was
plainly no fault of AttelPs.
It HIS promoter has guaranteed Nate
Lewis, manager of White, two
round "trip tickets and $500. White
viii not enter the ring until he gets
the $500.
He has promised Kid Young $50,
8nd Young will not get into the ring
until he has received the $50.
He has promised Terry Nelson $50,
and Nelson will not get into the ring
until he has received the $50
Also, unless Abe Attell is paid the
$3.50 this promoter owes him, the eX-
champion will, undoubtedly attach
the gate receipts for the money owed
him for his fake fight which said
promoter under his signature, de-
dared was no fake.
And unless all this money is in the
house, there will be no fight, ana
those who will have purchased their
tickets in advance will gain nothing.
The fighting game is In bad way
IN Atlanta 1t is likely to be killed
forever if the show scheduled for Fri
day night turns out to be a fiasco.

JAKESTAHLM MAY
NOT De ABLE To
PLAY THIS YEAR

y IT. LOUIS. MO, July 14.-Jake
Stahl is directing his Red Sox
team from the rathskeler. at
tired in his citizens clothes. He ism
in uniform because the injured leg
which has kept him out of the game
all season, hasn't fully mended. 1t is
said that Stahl may not be able to
play at all this season.
Ii has been Stahls failure to play
that has had deal to do with the
Red Sox slump this season. after haV-
ing won the worlds championship
from the Giants last fall. Stahl was
one of the teams best hit makers a
year ago. when they finished In front
of the American League field While
Stahl's absence has had its III effect
on the team
Tim Murnane, the old time pitcher
and now a baseball writer I'm Boston
says the failure of Joe Wood to pitch
up to his 1912 form was the real cause
OF the sox's slump.
"W GOD sprained his thumb in the
" early part of the season and
couldn't get going right" said Muir
name. In fact he isn't right just
yet, as the sprain won't permit him
getting the proper grip on the ball.
"Stahl and Wood were of great
value to the team year ago. but the
club has figured in hard luck in other
ways this year At different times
Larry Gardner. Wagner and Lewis
has been out Of the lineup because OF
injuries or other causes.
Buck O'Brien was sold to the
White Sox at a good figure He's
not a poor pitcher. by any means, but
was permitted to go because he just
couldn't win for the Boston team. His
record with he Red Sox this season
was something Ike three victories
and eight losses He should prove a
good man for Callahan"
THE Red Sox are hopeful that some
thing will happen to enable them
10 again represent the American
League in the worlds series. Bur
they are making no wagers that they
will again cut in on the spells.
They realize that the present lead
OF the Athletics of Philadelphia is al
most too great to overcome at this
stage Of the campaign. II would be
different if the Mackmen were COM
posed Of young players who might

time ago Meridian voted bond issue,
but the buyers of the bonds declined to
pay over the cash until the charter Of
the city had been amended authorizing
a bond issue of 10 per cent of the as
sessed valuation of the property of the
city. Meridian was operating under a
special charter and there does not seem
to be any limit to her bond issuing ca
pacity, though there is for all cities and
towns operating under the general char
ter. The attorney general approved the
amendment today and the same has been
recorded in the office Of the secretary
of state.

gathering of the captains of financial in
dustry similar to the 100 who met Prince
Henry of Germany at a banquet in this
city II years ago. these three men would
certainly be distinguished among the
others. They must be very busy these
days. One of them handled the foreign
exchanges to teh amount of $4,000. which
is enumerated in the table of resources of
the trust company. They are the mon
who know why the reports have been cir
culated recently that importations of gold
are likely to be made at any time and will
be made in case bankers in the United
States find it expedient to make the de-
mands. FurthrrhoIe. these are transac-

ULSTER BLUFF
IS DECLARED
GOOD ONE
Home Rule Leaders, How
ever, Refuse to be Fright
ened and Are Going Ahead
EFFORT rs TO GIVE
FRIGHT TO ASQUITH

~ UBLIN, Ireland. Oct. 25-Ulster is
making a magnificent bluff. but
it will not have any appreciabIe
effect in the progress of home rule.
This is the way the situation in the
north is regarded Up here, not only by
the natlonaIlsts and impartial obSerY-
erS, but by many uniOnistS.
Redmond, Deulin. O'Connor and other
national leaders refuse to become ex-
cited over the situation in Ulster and
are quietly perfecting plans for the
nome rule government which they
are sure viii be under way before an
other year has passed
To Brighten Government.
The way the Observation-Disclosures
movement is sized up is that it is pre-
c1Sely Tor the purpose of frightening
the government and of arousing an
anti home rule feeling in England
which viii compel Asquith to COM
promise. So far as can be ascertained.
Carson and his newspaper allies in
mass of the English and Scotch people
at all excited. The only shrieks of
fear and talks of compromise come from
those elements which always have been
bitterly opposed to home rule. Even
the old cry of home rule means Rome
rule" falls as flat as the Bloody
shirt has fallen in the United States.
Is a Fine Bluff.
1t is admitted that in the discussion.
Unionists in Ulster have made a mag
through with the skill of veteran DO
ker players, but it is firmly believed.
that when an Irish parliament first sits
in Dublin, Ulster will be fully repre-
be, some sparodic case of noting. due to
the campaign of Carson and his men
talk of anything like civil war and
open rebellion is silly rot.
