Sentiment is not yet dead in baseball,
| If we take the following dope from the
| pen Of Damon Runyon as a criterion. In
| his classical description OF how Ed
Walsh came back and blanked the
Yankees, Monday afternoon, the baseball
writer of the New York American tells
an interesting story of how Big Eds
pals rooted and pulled for him in this
hard-fought battle. Says Runyon:
He has been a great fellow in base
ball. this Walsh. Out in Chicago he
is idolized by the baseball fans as Christy
Mathewson is idoliZed in New York.
Here we have Big Six" Out there
they have the Big Reer'-every move a
picture.
His story is familiar to the followers
Of the game. Year in and year out he
bore the brunt Of battle for the White
| SoX. A big, rugged, earnest chap, he
did twice as much as any man for his
club. and tried TO do twice as much
again. For ten years he was the truck
horse of the Sox, whether they were
Up with the front runners or back with
the rear guard.
Arm Stops Suddenly.
Then, suddenly. that arm that seemed
made of steel. failed him. and since last
summer big Ed Walsh. the Meridian
Marvel" has been a cripple. The whis-
per ran around the big league that he
was through-that he had gone the way
Of all baseball flesh. and wherever the
whisper was heard there was a muir
mur Of regret. Baseball cannot spare
men like Ed Walsh.
Yesterday was the first time he has
gone through nine innings since the
breakdown came last season. He has
been in other games, it is true. but this
was his real tryout- More than the re-
suit of the game, more than the result
Of the season-hung on this game so
far as the White Sox were concerned.
In a way the fate of Ed Walsh hung
in the balance: It was a real test.
And that is why his ball playing
pals rushed upon him and hugged him
to them when the big chap came march
ing in 10 the bench. They do not merely
like Ed Walsh-those baseballing,
scrappy. tobacco-chewing White Sox-
they love him. A great fellow, Walsh.
Patted and Petted Him.
Between innings, on the bench, they
patted him and petted him and asked
him how he felt and did he feel like

What London Newspapers
r. Thought of the Fight

A majority of the London
papers agree that Smiths foul
was wholly unintentIOnaI. Sew
erHI of them say that Referee
Corn for some time was of a
mind to continue the fight.
The Daily Telegraph expert
.EaysI-.
"DescsmpH, by breaking into
the ring, violated the rules and.
the verdict must have gone to
Smith II COrrI had not decided
that the American had already
forfeited the fight"
The Daily Mail says that the
entirely unintentionaI blow has
left not the slightest stain on
Smiths honor as a boxer.
The Daily Chronicle says.
"Never was a foul blow Ikss
Intentional, or more surprising
to the man who dealt it,"
Observations to the same effect
are made in virtually all the
morning papers, and although IL
fsEenernIIy agreed that the nEht
appeared TO be Carpentier's,
much sympathy Is expressed for
Smith and regret at the unfortu-
nate ending.
The Morning Post considers
that the combat lasted scarcely
Tong enough to measure the
mems merits adequately.
Lord LonSdaIe, seen after the
fight, expressed the opinion that
the blow which resulted in
Smiths disqualification was due
to the fact that Carpenter fights
low.

cured to the patients satisfaction and
without pain, they will refunud the money,
etc. but | have before me a letter from
a poor unfortunate drug user, who bit at
this bait, and in it he says: Il went to the
Sanitarium at -. which ad-
vertised a painless cure, devoid of the

had my money back--it was a farce. 1
