PALACE
Royal Children of Italy Are
Being Made Constantly
Happy.
GO IN SPRING TO
HUNTING LODGE

ONE. Italy. June 5.-Whatever the
II future may hold Of sorrow or joy
IN for the royal children Of Italy, the
son and three daughters Of king Victor
Emanuel and queen Helena will be able
to look back upon an exceptionally
happy childhood
The QuirinaI palace in Rome, where
the children live, has its own shaded
gardens. but lest these should not SUI
flee, the king has bought a villa close
to the city to serve as an open play
ground for the youngsters. This villa
is on the ancient Via Salaria. The chill
dren are often taken out to it in motor
cars, and spend long afternoons at play
with their ponies and other pets, eE-
actly as though they were in the real
CO to Hunting Lodge.
When spring comes the little prince
TTmberto, aged nine and his sisters,
Yolanda. MafaIda and Giovanni, re-
spectively u, II and six years old, go
down TO their fathers hunting lodge
of Castle POrzianO, about 10 miles from
Rome, where a scented wood OF pine
trees borders the Mediterranean ana
where. dressed in simple and practical
clothes. they live in the open air, bath
ing and climbing trees till they become
@ s brown as berries and as hardy as the
children Of the peasants around LneIu-
Later on in the summer they go to the
seashore at san ROsSOre, near Pisa and
later still TO the fine country castle OF
RaCCOulgi in Piedmont, which mas al
ways been the summer residence Of the
CarignanO branch Of the house Of
Savoy
Are Simply Dressed.
It used to be the fashion Tor lJallan
children of the better class 10 dress
deliberately. like miniature editions Of
their parents, but queen Helena, real
izing how much happier is the life Of
bOys and girls who have not to care for
their clothes, has set the fashion for
simplicity by always dressing her chill
dren in loose and comfortable sailor
suits" Thus arrayed the royal young
ries Of digging, gardening and padding
in the sea
The eldest Of the family, princess
TOlauda. is a handsome girl and always
looks well in her white serge suits with
broad collars but she is rather prscO-
cious. as are many Italian girls, and al
ready shows q truly feminine interest
to her TO be allowed to assist in select
ing her mothers millinery, and she
chooses hats for the queen on most
lavish scale. never allowing herself to
be trammeled by consideration of eE-
pense. Tolanda admires her beautiful
lrOther intensely. and she was present
on a public occasion recently when some
some one remarked to her that the
queen was looking particularly well
The little girl answered:
Ny mother is the very handsOmest
queen in Europe" After a short pause
she added: And I am going to be eX-
atty like her"
The resemblance between mother and
daughter is most striking.

PITTSBURGH TRADES
 TWO FOR COZY DOLAN
Byrne and CamnitZ Go to PhiIlies InExchange for Fast
 Infielder

A shock was given the bzsgbarf world when it was learned that Pred Clarke. the astute leader of the PItta- burgh Pirates. had given Howard camnitz, the svetrean pitcher, and Bobby Byrne. the third baseman oc the Buccaneers, to the PhnHes in ez- change for "Cozey' Dolan. a utflitv infielders who was a member of the New York Yankees for a. part of last season. The -PhilIies parted with a bit of cash along with Dolan to bind one of. the most sensational deals that has been made in a year of numerou8 trades.
 Although Camnitz has hesn going tceeded in winning only five or inc twenty-tvo games he has twffIed thls season. still he has played such a prominent part in the afrairs or the Pirates for so many years that he had come to be looked upon as a dxture. just as MatheE7son is with the Giautr Howard has not got the stuff he once had, but be is a twlrIer who knows his art through and sthrough and haa many a good game left in his arm
 The passing of Byrne makes much food for speculation. Bobby is one or the leading third basemen Of the game. He has been. hitting at the rate of -263 this season, while hfB fielding average is .942. He ranks ahead of Smith, Zimmerman. shafsu and Mcdonald He has always been considered pretty fair sort of a bah player and a dangerous batter in a pinch.

FREDDIE WELSH IS
 VICTIM OF 100000
Injured Twice on Eve of Engage ment for lightweight
 Title

Freddie Welsh, the lightweight cham pion of Great Britain, will never be- come champion of the world unless he manages to shake off the pale-eyed jinx that has camped on his trail for time in his career he has been match only to have. an accident snatch the chance right out of his grasp.
 Two years ago Welsh signed to meet Ad Wolgast for the worlds title, but the champion was stricken with ap- pendicitis on the eve of the battle. Now, only a few days before his match with Ritchie, which was to have taken place on Labor Day at Vancouver, he has had the misfortune to engage in a street fight with a heavy weight. lun- berjack, in which he received injuries that necessitated the cancellation of the match.
 There are those who have declared that Welsh has purposely avoided the issue with Ritchie, but close followers of the sport fail to see wherein he should. have any reason to avoid meet ing any man in his class. He has always been rated as one of the clev- crest men in the squared circle, and an idea of his prowess may be glean- ed from the fact that he has twice held the only Packey Mcfarland to drawn battles. Furthermore, Welsh has never sidestepped an issue, but has gone right ahead meeting any man with whom he was matched. It is generally believed that the one man he wanted to meet is Ritchie.

BIG CROWD SEES
 PIRATES DEFEAT
 MONTE CROSS CLAN
By wagner.)

HonuS Wagner played Bridgeport at Newfeld park yesterday and when the engagement. was over the long armed son of Carnegie, Pa, had the decision by to A. .Honus was assisted by eight other athletes wearing Pittsburgh uni forms, but he didn't need them. He attracted more attention than John Drew at a. matinee. The crowd of $500 saw the grand old man stretch out those huge hams and smother hot grounders and he was also caught in the act of pounding the seams off the ball. As we say in the suburban col unns, "a fine time was had by a1l.''
 Manager Clarke sent his regular team to play the Crossmen. In the box was Cooper ,the left handler secured last season from Columbus of the American associa ton. He didn't exert and with. the exception of the third, held the locals in check. Behind the bat, Billy Kelley performed. He is the backstop who caught Marty O'Toole with St. Paul in the American associa- tion and was taken by the Pirates when OFToole was secured.
 Ham Hyatt, the noted pinch hitter, performed on first in the absence of Miller, but. Viox was on second. But Ter, another American association re- cruit, who played second early in the season, was stationed at third in place
  phia.
 Max Carey, who in private life is a minister, played left and showed lots of speed. Mike Mitchell, the old Gin cinnati star, recently secured by Pitts burgh from the Cubs, rompeds in cen ter and Chief Wilson, one of the slug gers of the National league. was in right.
 The pCrossmen acted as if they mad stage fright in the, first session, but after that they played good ball. In that round Gervais was given a hearty reception.
 after the third and the Pirates didn' do much, Wagner, Hyatt and Wilson got two blows each. Russell and Ger vais were the principal pounders for the Crossmen. Each delivered two timely pokes.
 After the big 1eaguers had scored four in the opened and two in the third it didn't look as if Bridgeport would have a chance but the boys made a respectable showing by land ing on Cooper for a, quartette of tall lies in the third.
 Gervais got life when Hyatt drop 1 ped a throw but Stow hit into a dou- ble play. Bowman got an infield single and Boultes walked, erowding the cushions. Heine Batch rang up two runs with two baggers into the crowd in right and Russell scored two more with a, drive to left. Monahan made the third out. There wash i much excitement in the game after that.
 In the absence of McGamwel1, Rus sell played first and did remarkably well. The score:

SHARKEY-FTTz F,EUD
 STILL FBOURIsHEs

Pugf1istic feuds are usually snort lived, but the passing of many years has not entirely wiped from the sIats of memory the animosity that Bob F'itzsiInmons and Tom SharFey feIE for each other when in their fighting prime. It was thirteen years ago that the freckled blacksmith and the tat- tooed sailor mingled in their famorl8 grudge fight at Coney Island Bob. with the bitterness of a former defeat. which he called a highway robbery" ranking in his heart, refused to shake hands with his brawny antaEouist- From the tap of the bell Fitz went after Tom hammer and tougs, and fought so cIeverly and vicious1y that in the second round Shar<ey wac stretched out for the count Even af- ter his victory the Cornishman refused to shake hands.
 The cause of this bitterness dated back to 1896, when F1tzs who wag then contemplating the annexation or Corbett's title, fought Sharlcey fin san Francisco. Bob had the best of ths argument, and in the eighth round landed what seemed to be a solar plexus, which sent the sailor tuub- ling. Fitz received the surprise Of hiI life when the referee, Wyatt EarD. announced that FTtz had perpetrated a foul, and awarded the victory Go Sharkey. The Cornishma.n frothed at the mouth, and intima1ed that he considered Jesse James an honest man and a gentleman compared with shar- key and Earp.
 F'itzsimmons is now a EeutIeruau farmer, and Sharkey conducts a urst goods emporium in the vicinity oE Tanmany Hall, New York. Incideuf- ally, Sharkey was the victim of au- other foul only few months ago. One night, so the. story goes. he VTaa engaged in telling tales Of vanished gIories to a crowd of admirinR 1fsteu- CTS, and in the course of the recital expressed the opinion that he could lick any white heavyweight living Among those present was one ''Kel1ouT the NeWsboy," featherweiEht who had taken part in a few bouts.

Four years before the sailor had been awarded a victory over Ruby Robert on a. foul, and Tom kept bragging about it until Fitz con- sented to fight him again. Sharkey had a lot of friends who thought he stood a chance to win, but they were doomed to disapp ppointment. Sharkey also won on a foul from Corbett, and twice extended Jeffries the limit.

The investigators declare the men higher up'' made their wagers through subordinates and as result their apprehension will be difficult.
 The inquiry into the book betting industry in the departments, the po- lice say, has led them to the discovery that 1t was conducted by a ring of gamblers with resources of upwards of half million dollars. For years, it is said, this ring divided large profits.

Chicago, Aug. 25-A new league, which shall have the sanction of or ganized baseball and which shall be the weapon with which organized ball shall attack the Federal league, is planned by John Powers, deposed pres ident of the federal organization. He left here, last night, for a trip through 10 cities to enlist support for the new movement.
 Powers says he has the support of certain elements in the National and American leagues and in spite of the collapse of his plans, this year, he ex- poets to be the head of a, third major league. Powers, who still is nominal Iy head of the Federal league, was given a vacation by the directors, ear Iv in the season. The leave of absence is to last until fall, when the plan is to name his successor.
