st. Louis, July 3.-Fate has reserved
its hardest blows for Mordecai Brown,
hero of four worlds series and one of
the best and gamest pitchers that ever
lived.
Nothing could illustrate the uncer-
tainty of baseball more wildly than
the case of the old warrior With his
baseball triumphs of years still fresh
in memory. he is today struggling prac-
tically to hold his position as manager
of the ST. Louis Federals and to keep
his team from disappearing in the last
place mire. 1t is one of the saddest in
cidents of a baseball season which will
go down as the most disappointing in
the history of the game.
In this city, where Brown first earn
ed recognition as a great ball player,
he today leads a forlorn hope, his team
is ignored by the fans, his players are
discouraged and his efforts to stave of
defeat and humiliation are fruitless.
While fans are turning out by thous-
ands to see the Brown and Cardinal
games, they are showing up only by
hundreds when the ST. Louis Feds per-
form. Mordecai Brown, the hero of
the past, deserves a better fate.

GO PROVES LOCAL
BOY AMONG STARS
Ability of Knockout Mars to
Stay With Kilbane Shows
SchieberIs Glass.
FOUGHT OHIO PUG 40 DRAW
Rock Island Featherweiaht Argued
Evenly With Cincinnati Scrap
per Last Winter.

Knockout Mars of Cincinnati, who
was fought to a draw by Peanuts"
Schieberl OF Rock Island last winter,
succeeded in remaining in the squared
circle for ten rounds with Johnny Kill
bane, king of the featherweights, IL
Cincinnati last evening. Kilbane was
awarded the fight on a hair decision.
The victory of Mars is hailed by the
local fight bugs as an indication of the
class that Shieberl is fitted to
travel in. Since he fought Mars to a
draw, and the Cincinnati boy gave the
champ a good run for the victory, the
Rock Island glove followers believe
that the featherweight title is far from
a settled matter, and believe that the
local pug has a good chance for
worlds honors in that division.
10000 See the Fight.
Ten thousand fight fans witnessed
the bout last evening staged at Red
land field. Kilbane had to work his
hardest to get the slightest of shades
over Mars. To the credit of the cham
pion it may be said that he did his
best, but the covering tactics and per-
sistent holding on of Knockout pre-
vented the Clevelander from landing
effective blows.
Kilbane must be given the shade on
account of his willingness at all times
to mix it, his persistency to force the
fight from the first to the last and his
better work in the small amount of in
fighting INDUCED in. 1t was evidently
Mars determination and ambition to
stay the limit. and his ability in doing
this and the fact that he escaped prac-
tically all punishment constitutes a
virtual victory for himself.

ALL SET FOR The
PONIES TO. START
Horses to Race at Exposition
Park Fourth Seldom Equal
ed for One-Day Meet.
At. A. RULES WILL GOVERN
Three Harness Events, Burning Race
and an Exhibition of SaddIers
on the Program.

The management of the Rock Island
Exposition park has been receiving
many compliments the last few days
from men who know concerning the
fine bunch of horses that have been
brought here for July and the good
races they will undoubtedly have on
that day.
For a one day meeting for harness
horses one seldom sees as many good
horses as are now here and will turn
for the word The followers of harness
horse racing will surely have no fault
to find with this meeting and their
request for new horses to race here
has been needed. More inducements
were offered to outside horses than
were offered the local horses, if such
would be possible under tho A T. A.
rules. but racing under the supervision
of the parent association no favors
can be shown and horse must win on
merit and the judges can in no way
help him along.
The horse show is enc that cannot
be beaten for good horses that have
been broken for the show ring, this
side of Chicago. Many people here
have seen some of Mr.. Wards horses
work when they were colts and just
being broken. but since that time they
have been schooled each day and have
been victorious in several horse shows
throughout the United States. Some
of the most competent judges declare
that Mr.. Ward has a couple of horses
in his stable that have grand chance
of winning the worlds championship
at Chicago this fall.
Last comes the running race. II
would have been an easy matter to
get horses to go out and put on run
ming race for much less money than is
offered these horses, but the manage
ment insisted on the best running
horses possible and spent a great deal
of time and money in lining up the
men who had real running horses and
who would go out and race for the
money. These horses are all getting
ready to go to the big races this fall.
Most of them are young horses, this
being their second year of racing, and
ara just the kind of horses that make
the most interesting race.
The Aledo band of so pieces has been
secured to furnish the musical program
in the afternoon and will be kept over
until evening when it will furnish a
band concert at the park in the even
ing. A large order of Paine's fireworks
hrve been received for the evening

ROTH and EvERS
WILL MEET HERE
Classy Bantamweights to Scrap
10 Rounds as Preliminary
to Wrestling Go.

Jackie Roth of Rock Island. formerly
known as kid" Sample of Chicago,
will meet Eddie Evers, also OF Rock
Island, in a 1OTound exhibition scrap
al the Exposition PARK on the evening
Of Friday, July 10. as a preliminary TO
the Demetral-R Roller wrestling match.
Roth is an exceptionally clever man
and challenges the world at his weight
He went into the training yesterday
for his match.
Evers is the local puG who held
Young" Critic TO a draw at Peru the
other night, and established himself
frnIc as a leader in the pugilistic
game. Critic Is noted as one OF ths
best bantams and Evers' feat of fight
ing a draw with him shows the local
Kid TO be an excellent man
Evers and Roth have met twice be
fore and in each case have fought
clean draw. Considerable rivalry eX-
lists between the two and the go
should prove exceptionally interesting.

race for the bunting in the Tri-optic
league.
Had it not been for the two Dan
vile series Of recent date Davenport
would have Jared even worse than il
did, but the best the Speakers could
do was 10 win one out of six confabs.
However, Peoria took three in a row,
Decatur split even on six games,
Springfield took three out OF four,
Quincy and Dubuque broke even on
six games each, and the Blue Sox have
won but 13 out of the last p games
played.
Had Peoria and Springfield main
tanned a good pace Davenport would
be but two or three games ahead in
the race at present, but breaking even
was the best these two teams could
do and so Davenport still leads. The
Sox lead, however, by only eight
games. and if the Distillers and Watch
makers can continue their winning
streaks It means that Pretzeltown will
soon be dragged out Of the lead and
the race in the Three-Eye will become
interesting.

The "Regio Palazso del Quirfnal is
NOT an impressive building. save in point
of size 1t requires nearly five minutes
to walk from end to end Of the southern
walls On the main front 1t has two
stories, and on the long southern front
three. Thus, owing to its modest archi-
tecturaI elevation. it is not conspicuous
although it occupies the crest of one OF
Rome's highest hills. From a high sta-

never forget his heroic conduct on the
occasion of the Messina earthquake, or
the self sacrificing labors of his queen
