JUDGE P. p. PARKER IS STILL MINUS HIS COAT

In spite of advertising, Judge P. P. Parker is still minus his coat. Three weeks ago he had a brand new over coat He lost it. Since that time he has had in his hands two other coats. And he is still out the original coat. It was lost at the Masonic Ball, given at the Woman's Club on the night of February IS, when it, together with three others, were taken by departing Masons by accident. Of course, the coats of the wrong takers were left, and as usual the exchange was bum one for the last man on the spot
 So the judge refused to take any of the coats and advertised for his stray ing protection. In few days there came letter from one Brother Hoge, who had gone to Flagstaff with a coat not his, and later the coat followed. It was not Parker's, and investigation showed that it was Brother Newton's s, SO a change was made with the result that two of the original exchangers once more became owners.
 T wish some one would come back with my coat" said Parker yesterday. Here it is almost summer, and it's past the time when I generally put it in hook till autumn. And if the pres ent owner needs it at this time. won't object to his keeping it, if he will promise to bring it back when wintry winds again do blow

'CLAbbY BEST M|DOLEWE|CHT
Jockey Maynard, Famous Sporting Writer, Tells Republican Readers Why He Picks Hammon Boxer as ClaSsieSt
(Bv Jockey Mavnard)

l have been asked my opinion as to who is the ,;cst ot the present day crop of middleweights Without the least hesitation I name Jimmy Clabby, the clever Hammond Ind, middIeweight Sunny Jim has every thing and is a speed marvel when it comes to boxing. He has been q trifle careless in his training meth ods lately. but now that he has placed himself under the mana ge- ment of LaIney Lichtenstein, l look for him to get down to the real grind of preparing for matches.
 Clabby is as shifty a boxer as Mike Twin Sullivan: he carries i sleep producing punch in either hand and can hit from any angle. He is 9 larger edition of Joe Cans when the colored' lad was in his prime Clabhy is as game as can be. and can stand a world of punishment. al ? though he is so clever that few of an opponents blows land solid. He is quick thinker and a real aud fence pleaser.
 Clabby is bound to become pOpu- lar boxer with the fans. While he can make 150 pounds handily he is willing to concede weight Clabby IS one Of the few boxers who does not argue for hours over a pound or two and during his recent trip to Aus tralia he took on and defeated EeayyWeights.
 In a letter from Jimmy recently the Hammond boxer stated he was more than anxious to hook up with 'Gunboat Smith. This may seem to he foolish offer to many, but James IS sincere, and I for one believe he will be returned the winner should the bout be over the round route l do not believe that the Gunner will lay glove on Clabby in ten sessions.

 the less bitter the defeat should the Englishmen carry home the title.

FAST BASEBALL
 AND MUCH FUN;
 DOUBLE HEADER
Owl Force and Old Sol Gang of Republican to Furnish Laughs Solons and Gems Will Meet in Final

There will be q double header Sun day at the Grant Park all for the price of d single game. And there will be more fun on tap at the free fun stand at tie park than has been tapped into the Salt for the past de- cade. Fat Dick Yates will put on the main bout when his nine sluggers meet the crack nine from Mesa in the third of a tie series, Mesa and Phoe- nix each having won one game this season.
 Dick will stage the beauty; but the fun. the most hilarious. most redic- ulous most comic. most farcical. five innings of baseball ever seen if you please, will precede the Fat Dick stuff, It will be the annual meet between the allnight workers and the all-day workers of the Republican force, when men of the office will tangle with men who make the wheels go round
 A thousand features have been scheduled for the prelim. Graceful Sid Wolf has been persuaded to drop the first ball which comes to him in his south field. Tebben. of the Owls. has signed a contract to spill himself all over the diamond first time he tries for a grOunder. A certain fat city editor has signifled his intention Of decorating the umps position, and has signed as his assistants. two young women of the Republican force.
 But the game will not be all farces Each side has several eX-pros and ex- perts and after the unusual sensation of the feel of ball is worn off in the first inning or two, it is expected the teams will quiet down to a. classy near league class of ball, which will shoot several kinds of surprises into the un suspecting galleries of fans
 The lineup in the final game is about thusly. according to the dope sheet handed out last evening by Fat Yates and LangoWski:
