Metty. as most every one knows. does

Johnny Evers Gives
Example Of Working
Fine Points of Game

John Evers was discussing major and
minor league base ball.
"a leading difference in the two" said
the Trojan. is in working the fine points
OF the game. To illustrate: We were
playing the Cardlnals-this was when
was on the Cubs-and the St. Louis
pitcher was q spit baller. We noticed
that at certain times Allan Hauser. who
was playing short, would wet his fingers,
stoop and rub II on the dirt.
I'VE got to thinking that he had a
reason for doing this. so We watched.
Then we discovered that every time he
dried his finger in the dirt he was getting
ready to handle spit ball in case one
came his way. That tipped US off az to
when spit ball was coming. ana w
took full advantage Of the discovery"

Although the Mazda Tigers have been
doing ag God deal OF squawlSing about the
Glass championship, nevertheless the
Columbian Reserves say they don't have
to play the Tigers again because they
trimmed them during the early part of
the season. They claim the class 'B''
championship because they were not de-
feated by an Omaha contingent and
further because they. were not scored
on. Here IL their record: Columbian

In regard TO the. Valley, Neb,, chal-
lenges the Columbians are willing to play
them in Omaha next Sunday. Valley
states that they would play the Column
btans, but insist on a neutral ground.
Now the Columbians are not exactly in
foot ball for their health and further
more they are not putting out any dough
TO demonstrate to Valley their foot ball
supremacy II this game was arranged
and scheduled for Omaha on Christmas
day, 1t would draw q large crowd and
both teams would fare we'll financially.
Valley could assure themselves OF a
square deal because the =, Columbians
would let them furnish all the officials
and as Rourke park IL well fortified on
occasions OF this kind with police pro-
lection, 1t would be a difficult matter
to rot Valley.

California Promoters Looking for
Places to Run Fights.
MCAREY OUT PROSPECTING
Noted PuRiIistic ImpresariO Trying
60 settle Upon New Orleans ms
n Location for His Ae-
tivtttes.

NEW YORK. Dec. 5-The efforts OF
California fight promoters TO locate new
fields for their activities have not met
with much success so far. OF late Tom
McCarey, the Los Angeles veteran pugi-
nstie impresaro. has been trying to
break into the game at New Orleans,
where Promoter Tortorich enjoys mo-
nopoly. Needless to say Tortorich views
with alarm tho prospects of having to
compete with the Californian. Tortorich
expresses his views thusly:
You can say for me that no outsider
is going to run a boxing club IN this
town. I'm boss down here. I've strug-
gled along through the lean times and
I'm going TO be in on the harvest. There

responsible for putting through a bill Civ
ing us twenty-round bouts. and now that
the game has been legisiatured out Of ex-
istence on the coast, don't think II is
fair for McCarey TO encroach on this tet-
ritory."
That Tortorich will have his own way
In the matter Is not likely. however. The
merchants OF New Orleans see in boxing
grand opportunity to advertise the city
and to attract throngs of visitors. pr9T
vlded bouts that will secure country-wide
attention are put on. So far TortoFich
has not been very successful in his syen-
lures. In fact, suit has been filed against
him for rent of one OF the arenas In
which he is interested. The last bout he
staged was financial failure. although
the card was one that looked to be at
:: tractive. ,~t r'
McCarcy I'm Favor.
Apparently the impression prevails that
Mccarey Ii the man most likely to re-
store the Crescent city's lost standing as
a pugillstic and all round sporting center.
He has had plenty OF experience In hand
ling championship matches, many OF the
most important battles having been held
under his auspices At Mccarey's request
a meeting OF New Orleans newspaper
owners was called 20 ascertain whether
sentiment was in favor of his advent into
the field. He was assured OF a hearty
welcome. but II is doubtful whether he
will accept the invitation In view OF Tor
torichs opposition. The fact that he is
far advanced in years and Is in poor
health will also tend TO influence him
against making the venture.

HEAVY CASUALTIES MARKED CONFLICT
 AROUND ESTEMAY

Correspondence of Associated Press.1
 Esternay. France, Oct. 27.Parttes of German soldiers separated from the main bodies of troops during the German retreat from the Marne are still hiding in the woods in this Vicin- ity. The French armies passed on and there are too few soldiers left in this part of France to hunt down the German stragglers. They live upon the country. but otherwise commit no ldepredations.
 Along the whole countryside peas iaI places of those who fell in the fierce fighting in their neighborhood' and for so miles to the East. The dead were buried by 500 Paris hre- men, assisted by 500 civilian 1alborers. It is said that the tally kept by the ffremen shows that 0,000 dead were buried, about 1000 of them French. The greatest slaughter was in the marshes near Sezanne Fifteen thousand dead are buried in long trenches at the bottom of a wooded hill.
 French and Germans are buried sep arately. On the long mounds above the French trenches have been set up rude wooden crosses; a, few wild flow CTS have been scattered on the mounds and sometimes large stones have. been placed at either end sCaps of French
 
 iment, have been placed on the cross- es or the stones. The trenches in which the Germans are buried are un- marked. The son of General won Moltke is buried near Esternay.
 Champillon, about two miles south east of Coulommiers, is the furthest place south reached by the Germans In their march for the investment of Paris. The village did not have more than 25 houses. All were burned Twelve inhabitants have returned and among other repairs have patched up. the schoo1house. Six children are<be- ing taught there
 Strewn over the plain near 4Fere- Champenoise are small piles of empty cartridge shells, pieces of broken rifles forms and various other wreekage from the fighting In an open space about two miles long by mile wide were some thickets where the German quick-f frers had been concealed On tn ridge behind were placed German long-range guns, which were doing great damage to the French. It was here that three regiments of TIrkos asked to be allowed to charge the height on which was the artillery. Nothing was known of the quick-f1rers in the bushes in the middle of the field The three regiments started the German quick-1irers opened up on them. Only about half a regi- ment succeeded in getting forward and taking the machine guns. Reserves were then brought up and another charge resulted in the capture of the German guns on the hills after tre- mendous hand-to-hand encounters.

GERMANS MAY CONTINUE BATTLE
 ON AISNE THROUGHOUT WINTER

German trenches at Betheny run in a long unbrolxen line around to the right by Cernay. At no point are the French trenches more than a few hundred yards away
 .'The Germans have lost no ground since the French recaptured Rheims There is continual sniping from the trenches. The ground between the . trenches is thtckly covered with barb ed wire entang1ements-
 Tour hundred German prisoners were taken Thursday and brought into Rheims. They made the custom ary German complaints of extreme hunger but the French are beginning to be skepttca1 as to these complaints, for the prisoners bear no signs Of fannishment.
 .sIn the meantime, the artillery duel along the eastern part of the Atsne valley is being continued with great vfolence. Although the allies seem to hold the adFantage the battle here Is far from ended and the fortid fed posi- tions held by the Germans will call for exceptional measures,

London. Oct. 27-The correspondent of the Daily Mall in Northern Franae, telegraphing under date of Sunday night regarding the fighting on the river Yser says:
 There were 2, 800 German bodies in the Yser Canal this morning after the fighting in the night. Many of them were drowned and others were bayon- eted. The very water itself was bloody while Di1nhlde's streets were strewn thick with the dead This ghoulish fact alone gives some idea of the extent of the fighting. the, despe-- zation of the German attacks and the stubbornness of the allies resist ance.
 The night was a hell from dark to dawn At almost every point of the line man opposed man. sometimes at a ferW hundred yards distance but more of them in close grips. Face to face .men even wrestIed and died by drown ing each other in the canal s waters. The Germans had had orders to get through that night, cost what it might An officer of theirs who was cop tured said that the delay of more than a week in crossing this waterway had incensed the aaItocratle military mind in Germany It must. be cross ed tonight if it costs ttoafsands Of men and the nnen all credit to- them, did their best PfoDalbIy 5000 of them gave their lives last night, they could not give more, yet they failed but not sbeeause the Germans did not literally obey their orders They crossed the
 waterway all right as they were bid but once through they could not make good They were mo9ed down with rifle shot. torn in llllHnsl an fraIe Ie1neIlts by shells and fbayonetted back yard

VILLAGES ARE TAKEN THREE TIMES.
 BY ALLIES BEFORE FINALLY SECURED.

London, Oct. 27=The official but reau makes public today the story of an eyewitness supplementlng the narrative Of Oct. IA and bringing the general course of operations in France up to Oct. 20. The arrivaIT of rein. forcements,it is said, enabled the Brit Iishs troops to assist in the extension of the allies line where the enemy advanced from the northeast and east. holding front ezfeniding from Mont Descats about o miles north ! east Of Hazebrouck. through Meteren, miles south of that point and then on to Estaires 1 3 miles west of Lille on the river Lys The statement cor. unues:
 South Of the Lys the line extended to three miles east of Bethune to Vermel1es. The allies encountered resistance all along the line on the Eth and 1 9th when the enemy right fell back hastily to Bailleul, IT miles northwest by west of Lille which had been occupied by the foe for eight days was abandoned without a shot being fired.
 ..On the 14th our left wing ad- vanced driving the enemy back and on the night of the 18th we were in possession of all the country on the left bank of the Lys to a point five miles below Armentieres The enemy retired from that town on the 16tn and the river line to within a short distance of FrellinghaIn fell into our hands.
 .sThe resistance offered to our ad- vance on the 18th was of a most de- ternined character.
