Sc successful was the tournament and such interest displayed that it is now proposed to have tournament play each Saturday. According to plans the next will take place Saturday when MT. Speers will be called upon to contest for possession of the medal.
 Twenty-Five started play in yester- days tournament, but only fifteen finished. The scores made by the four teen followers of MT. Speers, together with the handicaps and the net scores in the stroke play were computed like this.

BOY MAGNATE' MAKES
 FEW POOR DEALS

James c. McGill, owner of the h. dianapolis team of the Western as- sociation, often called the "boy mag nate" of baseball although he is an experienced business men, got his nickname because of his youthful ap- pearance. But if Jimmy is youthful in appearance-and it must be admit ted that he does not show the lines left by many years-he is by no means a youth when it comes to dickering with baseball men. McGill has been in the game as club owner for four years. When his uncle, the famous Pittsburgh Phil" McGill, died and left him a handsome fortune, Jeems decided that he wanted to get into the grand national pastime, and he broke in by purchasing the control ing interest in the Denver Western league club.
 In four years at Denver McGill's team, managed by Jack Hendricks, copped three pennants and once fin ished second, and during this quartet of seasons McGill made many trades and developed many players, but he has yet to be wOrsted in a baseball deal.
 Buck O'Brien, John Beall, Casey Hagerman and Cozy Dolan have been sent up to the majors by the Denver magnate, and he got good price for developing each of these players. This year Lester Channell, once driven to desperation here by "Chimmy" Burke, and later sold to Denver, is to get his second tryout with the Yankees this year, and Lester has Sol Meyer to thank for it, strange as it may seem. When the original deal was on for the sale of the Indians, McGill hadn't sold Channel to New York, but final ly he lost hope of landing the Indian apolis franchise and it was then that Frank Chance made him an offer for the player. He sold the player out right, but would never have made the sale had he known that finally he was to become owner of the Indians. So McGill must now get an outfield- CT to take the place Channell might have had, and another one besides for Duke Reilly is the only gardener on the Indian roster who looks good to Jack Hendricks. It appears that Reilly will get the credit this year | that is coming to him. Last season Duke" was the goat of the club, for I why no one seems to know, but ,, Kelley did not give the fellow the con- sideration he. should have had, and often kept him on the bench.

AUIO|STS RUN
 INTO LIVE WIRE Shock Throws Them in Path of Car, Which Rolls
 Over Both.
O'HARRA, BRYAN HURT
Fred Talick, Third Occupant of Ma chine, Escapes Injury When Auto Daslles Against Dangling Wire
 on East Second Avenue.

Billy O'Harra and Reed Bryan were hit by live wire yesterday evening about z o'clock, being thrown out of the automobile in which they were riding and then run over by the ma chine. The acciSent occurred in the 300 block of East Second avenue, where an electric light wire was dangling. Fred Talick, the third oc- cupant of the machine, escaped un- hurt.
 MT. OHarra received broken shoulder blade and several other in- juries. The extent of MT. Bryan's in juries are not known, but it is thought that several bones in his body are broken. Mir. OHarra, who was less hurt than MT. Bryan, and MT. Talick placed the chauffeur in the car anG c. Blackwell, fro mwhence he was taken to the Davis hospital, where ht
 was given medical attention. Mir. OHarra's injuries were also dressed at the hospital, after which he was taken to his home on East Sec ond avenue. At an early hour this Sunday morning, MT. Bryan was re- ported to be resting easy at the Da- wis hospital, but it is impossible to as- certain the extent of his injuries, un- til after an examination has been made.
 1 According to Mr. O'Harra, who occu- pied the front seat with Bryan, his chauffeur, he saw the fallen wire just as they were about to hit it, and he yelled to the driver Look out there's a live wire.' In making an effort to dodge the wire, both rose from their seats and were hit on the head by the wire and given a shock that threw them in front of the car. Mir. Talick, who was seated in the rear, jumped to the front seat, but was unable to stop the automobile until after it had pass ed over both of the men.
 MT. O'Harra, who was injured some time ago at the local shops, has ab- solutely no use of his right arm, and drove the car with his left hand to the residence of Dr. Blackwell. MT. O'Harra explained last night that he did not remember how he drove the car safely to the doctors home, as he was only semi-conscious until after being treated.

NO FIREWORKS AT PARK YESTERDAY Instead Kalsomine Was Ap- piled to Electrics and
 Bedells.
TWO SHUT-OUT GAMES
CIeggs Take First With Four Runs, While Pastimes Capture Second With Two Tallies-SpOrt Was
 Good and Crowd Fair.

The Whitewash brush was put to use yesterday afternoon, when the Cleggs used it to good advantage against the Electrics and the Pas times did likewise with the Bedells Both games were witnessed by the largest crowd of the season and some classy ball was furnished the fans.
 In the first game of the afternoon the Cleggs had "every nation" and de- feated the Electrics by the score of 1 to 0. The game was full of brilliant plays and the usual large number ot hits secured by each team was trim med down and split even, each team getting five.
 The game was a pitchers battle, with the odds favoring Mullin, the big Indian of the Cleggs. Mullin hurled a good game and famed five men, while his opponent did not fare so well, and has none to his credit. Neither of the pitchers We're giving passes and not a man was allowed to reach first on four balls.
 The Electrics sprung surprise on the fans yesterday and presented the strongest lineup of the season ill the field. Had it not been for the six CT TOTS charged up against them, the score would have been more evenly

FaStimes Win Early.

By making two runs in the first i'm ming off Hamlin, the iron ndn for the Bedells, the Pastimes added another victory to their string and took pes session of all the runs made in to 0 game. Both runs were made on errors.
 Sorrells,. who relieved fismlin in the second inning, pitched superb ball, but was unable to overcome the lead made by the Pastimes. With the eX- ceptiOn of, the first inning the game between these two teams was no doubt the best ever furnished the fans by teams of the City league.
 Hamlin, who hurled the first inning for the school boys famed the first two men to face him, after which one was given a pass to first base. One error and one hit is responsible for the two runs made in the inning. Sor- rells has only one strike-out in eight innings to his credit, while Vowell, his opponet, has the same number for the entire game. The hits were kept well scattered as we'll as divided. The Pastimes getting four while the Be- dellS got three

Selecting the alley between Olive and Laurel streets as suitable site for the said game, and using a candle, the lovers of the sport brushed away the mud and down on their knees all went to proceed with the rolling of the bones.
 After the game had beer. in progress for few minutes, the low tone in which the members of the party start ed off, began to rise until soon shouts of Come Little Joe,'' Dice, Don't Fool Me-" and Come seben, cause baby wants new pair of shOe," could be heard for several blokcs away.
 Night Chief of Police w. D. Fiveash and Patrolmen Graves and Robinson who were on the lookout for over celebrators" arrived at the scene just in time tt hear one of the negroes re- mark, Dice, don't you leave me heah." At this instanc Chief Fiveash and the patrolmen informed the negroes to "leave be" of the bones and forward march. They were taken to the po- lice station where they were given berths in the city bastile.
 The delegation was composed of John Young, Wesley Shelby, Willie Stredwick, Henry Brunly, Edgar Grimmings, Wash Hunt, Will Jones. Church Stewart, San. Simms and Will Hunt.
