.DES MONIES CHOSEN
FOR BIG ARMY CAMP

Washington, June 13.-Minnesota
has lost the Thirteenth divisional can,
torment for the new army to Iowa.
The war department announced that
Des Moines has been awarded the
camp.
1t was said at the Office of Newton
d. Baker, secretary of war, that Des
Moines was chosen because the extra
land needed near Fort Smelling was
held at an exorbitant price.
Minnesota lost the cantonment fol
these two reasons:
The price asked for the extra land
needed at Fort Smelling was declared
exorbitant by the war department,
Iowa is dry and Minnesota is wet.
The fact that the wet and dry ele.
ment had entered into the contest did
not become known until after the an.
nouncement of the selection was made
by Secretary Of War Baker.

WILL BE LOOKED AFTER.
John Drew's Godson Now a Second
Raseman With Giants.

Manager John McGraw of the New
York Giants recently signed up a new
second baseman who in public is bur-
dened with the name of William
Vendervor Cosgrove. but who. in pri-
vate life, is John Drew Bennett. godson
Of the famous actor, John Drew. Co.'S
grove played second base for one Of the
big university teams and came under
the watchful eye of Sam Heegan. a
Giant scout. Heegan made sure that
his find" was the real stuff before he
proposed that McGraw look him over,
and that the manager Endorsed Hee-
gan's opinion of the young fellow is
evident when it is known that the first
time McGraw saw Cosgrove on the Polo
Grounds field he offered him a contract.
The same day that Cosgrove received
his contract from McGraw at the Polo
Grounds he lost his heart and won a
bride. Cosgrove was batting 'em out on
the diamond one forenoon recently when
a foul ball struck pet dog sitting be-
side his mistress in the grandstand.
Cosgrove, gallant young chap that he
is, hurried to offer his apologies and
Nine de Montignon. owner of the dog,
forgave him and not only that, but
asked him to go to a certain theater
that night where she was presenting a
vaudeville stunt with the assistance Of
several pedigreed collies. Romance
quickly ripened and Cosgrove is now a
benedict.

Proclamation by Commissioners.
CHANGES BATTING STYLE.
Big Improvement When Walter
Holke Bats Lefthanded,

A change in batting style has made
Walter Holke. Giant first baseman, one
of the best batters in the National League.
When Holke, a few years ago, first
donned a New York uniform at the
Marlin training camp he was regarded as
a ball player who wouldn't do, a man
doomed to spend his life in the bushes.
But now Holke couldn't be bought. He's
too valuable an asset to the New York
club.
The reason is that Holke changed his
batting style. At first he batted right
handed and now he bats from the fork
side of the plate. The result is that he is
300 hitter. In his old form he was
lucky to hit .250.
At the end Of his first training trip
McGraw sent Holke north with the sec
ond team under the care of Mike Dom
lin. Donlin paid little attention to the
big German, who was as awkward as
schoolboy at the plate.
One day in an exhibition game Holke
batted left handed. His style was much
improved and he had lost his gawkish-
ness.
You're awful as a right-handed bat
ter" Donlin told him. "But you look all
right from the other side OF the plate
Try hitting that way
Holke tried and seemed on the way to
succeed when McGraw sent him to
Rochester.
John Camel. who had the Rochester
club. didn't think much of the south
paw hitting. told Holke to bat right
handed. The next year. when Tommy
Leach managed Rochester. he turned
Holke completely over and had him bat
ting from the left side OF the plate
Holke led the league, and when he ar
rived in New York at the flag end of the
season outbatted all the National League
swatters.

A WONDERFUL HORSE.
Old Rosebud Proves Fallacy of Say
ing They Never Come Back"

Three times retired from the racing
game as a cripple by his owner, Old
Rosebud, the six-year- chestnut geld
ing in the stable of H. c. Applegate of
Kentucky. achieved what probably was
the greatest triumph of his career in
winning the rich Frontier handicap at
Windsor. Ontario, last Saturday, against
a field of seven Of the best handicap
horses that ever competed for the
$4,000 purse offered for this classic.
The words greatest triumph" are
used advisedly, as Old Rosebud In 1914
achieved what is considered the zenith
of many a stake horses career by win
ming the Kentucky Derby. The great
ness of his achievement lies in the fact
that in 1914, shortly after winning the
Latonia classic, he broke down in the
Withers handicap. Applegate turned the
horse out to pasture, and 1t was thought
that the thoroughbred would never race
again. However, the colt out of Ivory
Bells by Uncle reappeared on the turf
in 1915, only to break down again be-
fore the season was ended. Last year
he had the same experience.
This season, however. the gelding has
won several of the richest stakes on
the barrier twenty-three times and has
won eighteen races. finishing second
twice and third once. and failed only
twice to finish in the money. Surely this
is a magnificent record for horse
Judged to be down and out on three diff
ferent occasions. A triple comeback
beats all known records.

democracy and civilization.
Responding to a proclamation issued
by the District Commissioners that to-

both for the members of the District
guard and those who are to be called
into service through the draft, many
churches have completed plans for spe-
cial services to be held both this morn
ing and tonight.
The Commissioners proclamation was
issued only Wednesday. and. aside from
the announcement In the newspapers,
pastors had received no notice of it.
However, the general announcement in
the press is thought to have answered
the purpose. as inquiries last night
failed to disclose any church that mad
not prepared to observe the day in the
manner requested.
Some Of the Programs.
Rev. D. H Martin. pastor of Wesley
Chapel, will speak at the morning SER
vice on Americas Sacrificing Mothers"
while his topic this evening will be.

be offered.
There will be half-hour prayer SER
vices both this morning and tonight at
Calvary NJ. E. Church. of which Rev.
James Snera montgomery Is pastor
Special services also will be conducted
by Rev. Henry T. Cousins, pastor of
Anacostia Baptist Church; Rey- q c.
Mclean. pastor of Douglas Memorial
NJ. E. Church. and others.
At st. Martins Catholic Church pray
ers will be offered for the soldiers and
those about to become soldiers by Rev.
Eugene Hannah, pastor. In fact, at
practically every place of worship in
the city the Commissioners proclama-
ton will be observed.
Not only those who are members of
the congregations, but the relatives
and friends of the young men who are
to represent the District in the titanic
struggle across the waters. regardless
of whether they are church members,
are expected to attend services today
and join in the duplication to the
Supreme Being on behalf of those in
the military service.
Proclamation by Commissioners.
In their proclamation the Commits
sioners designated today a day
upon which all our people, of whatever
religion and creed, shall repair to
their houses of worship and offer up
prayers to Almighty God on behalf
of our gallant young manhood now
about to go forth to battle in a most
righteous cause in the armies of our

MOST UNLUCKy MAN
NOW PLAYING BALL

Walter Cruise. the unknown leader
of the National League batting race. is
the most unlucky ball player on the
diamond! We don't mean to say that
he is unlucky to be the leading hitter
Of his league. but that he might have
been tho leading hitter several years
ago If not beset by Old Kid Misfor-
tune.
Cruise, who has been alternating
with RQush Of Cincinnati as the best
batter in the Tener circuit. the now
famous reputation league. has suffered
as many injuries as did AID Wolgast in
the prize ring. Cruise started his base
ball career and his career Of hard luck
at the same time.

Cruise Is Southerner.

Cruise is a southerner. like Joe jack
son-and he looks more like Joe Jack
son than any other ball player. Walter
came from Sylacauga. Ala. twenty
seven years ago. He always was q
ball player. even though he did attend
Columbia College, in Lake>Cit Fla, In
an attempt to become veterinarian.
Also Cruise always was a batter. He
'swang" the heaviest bat in the minors
for Ave years. He simply grasped the
old ash by the extreme end and shut
his eyes and leaned on 'em.
The Giants and Detroit both grabbed
him, and Connie Mack was but one day
late in an attempt to enlist him in the
cause of the Athletics.
He went to st. Louis by chance. One
day the Jacksonville team played the
Cardinals an exhibition game before
the season opened in 1914. Cruise had
| a great day-wonderful catches. two
home runs and all that sort of thing.
Miller Higgins took but one look and
| signed him on the spot.
Cruises misfortunes kept him back.
Here are few of the most serious:
