TOO CLEVER
 FOR WHITE SOX PILOT
Clarence Rowland Tells of a Brfsh
 Dodge.

"The most curious decision ever saw given by an umpire was when l was managing the Dubuque club many years ago." said Clarence Rowland, leader of the White Sox.
 We were playing in one of the Three *T' league cities and Wild Bilp' Setley was umpiring.
 We only had one umpire for a game in that organization then, and the official had to keep his eyes open or miss a play now and then.
 We got a man to first before any- body was out. The next batter lit short single to right. The fellow on first tore for second and, rounding 1t, bore down to third. Wild Bill" Setley was right at his heels, running along with him the way Ollie Chill does in the American League.
 'The play was close at third and Setley called our runner out. This. was perfectly right, although the play was a bit close. Setley had his back to first when the ball was whipped back there and he didn't see the run ner tagged as he slid back for the base.
 T was coaching at third and was amazed when Setley called. You're out,'' and he pointed at our fellow on first.
 T was rather peeved, of course. How do you know he was out" de- manded, running up to him. You had your back turned Imagine my astonishment when Setley opened his hand and disclosed small round looking glass in his palm.

Maurice Mclaughlin Eliminated in Fourth Round of Tennis
 Singles by Church-New London Game Ahead of 7 Portland, Both Winning Friday

Forest Hills, N. Y, Sept. 1.-The defeat of Maurice E. Mclaughlin, the idol of American lawn tennis, at the
 hands of George M Church was the
 outstanding feature of the fourth
 round of the national singles champ 1 ionship tournament on the courts of the West Side Club here today. The elimination of the California Comet" l in his widely hera1ded ambition to come back after two years of defeat, left but three western racquet ex- ponents in the fild for the 1916 title as against four eastern stars and one southern expert George M. Church is tonight the hope of the eastern con- l tingent while the west is pinning it's faith on the ability of William M. Johnston, victor year ago, although it is conceded that of the remaining eight players in the tournament R. Norris Williams 2nd, of Philadelphia, and Clarence J. Griffin, of San Fran cisco, both have a chance to come through and capture the highest hon.
 ors of American tennis for the present season.
 Church defeated Mclaughlin. 5-7, 6-1, 6-2. 63. Johnston easily elim- mated Leonard Beekman at 6-2, 6-3, 6-3. Williams came through at the expense of William J. Clothier, whom he defeated 5-7, 7-5, 6-4, 6-1 Griffin 6-3, 6-2, S-6, 12-10. Douglas S. Walters, the southern champion, won from E.
 R. Mccormick of California, 6-2, 6-3, 64. Wallace F. Johnson of Philadel- phia easily disposed of w. Merrill Hall, 6-2, 6-1, 6-2. Watson M. Washburn
 of New York won from Willis E. Davis,
 another Californian and holder of the clay court championship, at 6-3, 4-6, GA, 7-5.
 The draw for tomorrow will bring together Williams vs. Walters at Il a. m; Griffin vs. Johnson at 30 D. m. i; Johnston vs. Washburn at 2:15 D. m.
