day against Chicago the other day he
is expected to display his old form in
the game today.
The report that Ty Cobb stole. his
eighty-seventh base yesterday is not
based on the facts. When Cobb went
into Yesterdays game he had stolen
ninety bases two more than Clyde
Milans record. This was determined
by wiring two different base ball dope
sters. who agreed on the number of
pliers credited to the Georgia Peach,
and when Cobb stole in the sixth it
was his ninety-f1rst steal. The Tigers
still have about eight games to play
this season and it would not be at all
surprising if Cobb reached the century
mark in steals.
George Dumont is slated to pitch one
of the games against the Tigers today.
Dumont has pitched against st. Louis
and Cleveland. and on each occasion
scored a shut-out and let his oppo-
nents down with two hits. But the real
test of the Fargo twirler probably will
come today, when he will face one of
the best hitting teams in either league.
Dumont has asked for the chance to
face the Tigers. He may want to get
line on himself. for. perhaps he feels
if he can hold the Detroit batters in
check that his future is assured.
Joe Judge will be out of the game
for some days. and it is questionabl
whether he will be able to play at all
during the remainder of the season.
In an effort to catch a foul fly close to
the right field pavilion Judge sprained
his ankle severely, and he had to be
carried into the clubhouse. The clubs

weeks. in which event Judge is not to
appear in the lineup again this season.
He had scored one run in the first
inning for his team yesterday, after
being hit by a pitched ball.
The injury to Judge, fortunately, does
not handicap the team at this time, for
Chic Gandil, who took his place, proved
at once that he was still in his stride,
getting two hits in four trips to the
plate and making couple of plays
around the bag which won him ap-
plause.
Alva Williams throwing is still at it's
best. There was some sort of mix
up yesterday when Cobb stole second.
no one covering the bag, but Williams
throw was perfect, hitting the bag. A
moment later Cobb tried to steal third
and Williams nailed him easily.
Walter Johnson for the first time in
a long while did not have to exert
himself to win yesterdays game. He
had q good lead from the outset and
only loafed through the greater part
of the game. Walter did not seem to
have much in the opening inning when
the Tigers made three hits and scored
two runs, but thereafter. until the
eighth, he held them scoreless without
Straining his arm.
Some groans went up from the crowd
when the Tigers scored their two runs,
it evidently being settled in the
minds of some of the spectators that
the game was over.

GOLF CLUB ORGANIZES
Kirkside Elects Governors and De.
cides on Membership

The first meeting of the Kirkside Golf
Club under it's Incorporation was held
last night, at which time the affairs of
the somewhat informal organization
which had existed up to that time wera
taken over and a constitution and nv.
laws adopted.
Instead of electing officers. board Of
governors was chosen and from this
board the officers will be selected by il.
The board is composed of Messrs. Milo

Immediately after the main meeting this
board held a special meeting and chose
Charles f. Bright as treasurer and IA
l.. Bisselle as secretary. The other OFF,

The most important subject taken IN
was regarding membership, and it was
finally decided to set a limit of 100 for
active membership and fifty for asso-
ninety-seven of the former and thirty
of the latter class. so that there is not
much room left for growth, but this is
just what those in charge want, as the
main object of the club is to have it
run under pleasant and harmonious con-
-ditions, and it is believed that this can
be better assured if the membership ia
kept down to a minimum and the organ
iZation made more of a family affair -
The families of active members will he

the boys, after reaching eighteen Years

up mostly of young women whose par

TIGERS ARE GIVEN
ASEvERE BEATING
Jennings Team Performs Like
Amateur Organization After
Getting Lead.
JOHNSON ALLOWS TWO
RUNS IN FIRST INNING
Griffmen Pound Coveleski for Five
in Their Half and Run Up
Big Score.
BY J. ED GRILLo.

The Detroit Tigers gave weird e4-
hibition of the national game at League
Park yesterday. in which they included
every kind Of known error and had two
of their pitchers hammered hard. Ihe
final score was II to 4.
Walter johnson started into this
game as if he had little or nothing,
and by clean hitting the visitors scored
a couple of runs in the very opening
inning. Detroit sympathizers predicted
the Griffmen would never be able to
overcome that lead with Coveleskie on
the rubber, and just to demonstrate the
games uncertainty the Nationals in
their turn at bat scored five runs. They
came back in the second with two
more, and in the fourth and fifth scored
one run, as they did in the seventh and
eighth. After getting their two runs
in the opening round the Tigers went
scoreless until the eighth, when they
sent one over. They duplicated this
performance in the ninth because john
son, working on big lead, was only
loafing.
The game opened by Bush singing.
Witt followed suit, and on Cobb's long
fly to center both runners moved up.
Yea CHI punched one down the third base
line and the two runs came nome.
Veach died trying to steal, and then
Crawford was out from Shanks to first.
Locals Get Five Runs.
Judge was hit by a pitched ball in
the locals half. Foster promptly hit
to right on the hit and run and Judge
went to third. Milan dragged bunt
past Coveleskie and beat it out. Judge
running home. Jamison sacrificed and
was safe when Coveleskie threw low.
H. Milan singled to center, scoring
couple of runs, and Williams long sac
rifce fly which Crawford muffed helped
to another run, making the total hVe.
In the second Judge was sale on
Bush's error. Foster again singled.
Milan was safe once more when Covel-
eskie dropped Young's throw, judge
scoring. Jamison struck out and H.
Milan walked. Boland then came into
sacrifice fly which scored Foster. A
walk to H. Milan, his steal and Shanks'
double gave them another run In the
fourth. McBride's triple and Gandifs
hit produced a run in the fifth, and a
single by Williams his steal. McBride's
hit and Gandil's single accounted for
another tally in the seventh. Fosters
fourth hit, a walk to Milan and II. Mi
lans second safety sent over Wash
ington's eleventh run in the eighth.
Wits single and Cobb's double gave
the Tigers one in the eighth and cou-
pie of singles and wild heaves by Can
dill and Johnson gave the visitors an
other in the ninth. The score:

away from his team good deal for
some cause or other. and as a result his
team has been weakened.
Cobb undoubtedly has several years
OF brilliancy still before him. There is
no difference in his general playing
now. compared with a few years back.
He has not slowed up in any respect,
though perhaps his arm is not as
serious mistake of doing lot of pitch
ing and unnecessary throwing which
has affected his arm, though he is still
able to take care of himself in this re-
Spect.
Bobby Veach. the Tigers left fielder,
has proved himself the most timely hit
ter of any of the members of the team
In the present campaign. When the
records come out later in the fall which
FOUND to occupy very prominent posi-
ton, If, in fact. he does not lead the
league in this respect.
Yesterday Veach kept up his good
work by driving in the first two runs
the visitors made. He has hardly gone
through game this season without
making a hit which produced runs.
which makes him one of the most val
liable men Jennings has, for it is the
batter who drives in runs who deserves
the most credit.
While the Chicago White Sox will

with the Athletics and thus be able
to retain their hold on third place the
Nationals, too. will get a crack at the
Mack team here for five or six games
before the season is ended, and that
