SANTA FE TO THE RESCUE
Dean Wells and n Pitcher to Play
With SoIons Today and Sunday.


The Solons Hmped into town this
forenoon battered and torn from their
recent experiences, but confident that
they will be able to gain back some
of the lost ground in the short series
this afternoon and winds up with a
doubleheader tomorrow.
The SoIons won only three games out
OF the fifteen played in the south but
have a perfectly good alfbi in, Pierce's
inability to get back into condition
after hurting his shoulder in a dou-
bIeheader at home nearly three weeks
ago, and the fact that Strohm has
been out and in on account of a bum
leg The club was also without the
services. of Neville in part of the
games.
Manager Cooley did not expect to
break even on the trip but is conf
dent that had Pierce been in his usual
good form the club would have won
at least. two more games. The club
hit we'll on the trip but Cooley said
this morning he wasn't making any
promises until he had chance to take
a look at the outff< this afternoon
Yendes seems to have developed into
a real slugger, and since Mitchell
pitched yesterday there should be
enough pitching talent 10 trounce the
Mfllers in the series starting today.
The Saiina team, however, is going
stronger than it has at any time this
season and may cause a lot of trou-
BILE. The Millers come here after
coping three straight from Musko-
gee.
Cooley is not only hoping that his
old gang will come back to life, once
they are back on the home lot, but he
is also expecting some help in the way
of new material. Lisle. a. pitcher, is
due TO arrive in Topeka today but
Byrne. another youngster who was due
to report at this time, has sent word
to the effect that he cannot join the
team for a tryout until later. Dean
Wells, of the Santa Fe team. will
play with the Solons this afternoon
and tomorrow. and it is possible that
either SSffel or Seitz will be on the
mound in part of Sundays double
header The Santat- Fe players are
showing a willingness to help the
Solons out in a pinch and their serv-
ices have proven of value iR~the past.

San Francisco. Aug. 5.-Ernest
Gable, city detective, who was shot in
the right eye by Walter Castor Thurs
day and who at first was thought
mortally wouDded. probably will live
and retain the sight of both eyes. This
announcement was made by surgeons
who operated on him.
The bullet fired by Castor cut thru
the outer corner of the eyeball, passed
thru the orbit and into frontal lobe
of the brain. The operation consisted
of lifting the eye from its socket, ex-
tracing the bullet from the brain and
replacing the eye. Thru it, the sur
geons said, Gable will be able to see.
The shooting occurred, when the po-
lice attempted to arrest Castor for al

LEONARD.


Michigan City, Aug. 5.-This little
city, nesting In the dunes along the
shore of Lake Michigan today was on
the boxing map for the second time
within a month Benny Leonard,
worlds lightweight Champion will de-
fend his title in a ten-round no de-
eision bout this afternoon against
sive Chicago lightweight
They will meet at catch weights and
to take the championship Hammer
must score a knockout or be fouled
by Leonard A month ago in the
same ring Leonard scored technical
knockout over Rocky Kansas of Buff
lafo, N. Y.
Leonard is a strong favorite to win,
but is prepared for a rough contest,
as he says he regards Hammer as
one of the divisions most dangerous
left hand hitters.
Leonard has done no boxing In
preparation for the contest, fearing a
meeting a week ago with Lew Tend
Ter, would be reopened, Except for
the unhealed cut Leonard is in ex-
ce1lent condition ~
With an Opportunity to win the
championship, Hammer promises to
set a terrific pace. He boxes with a
puzzling style, always tearing in close
and ripping left hooks to the head
and body There is an atmosphere of
confidence in Hammers camp. He
believes he is. destined to win the
championship and that he was di-
rectIy responsible for Leonards tax
ing it from WEIGH
Six years ago Hammer boxed Welch
in Milwaukee and thinks he gave the
then title holder such Furnishing
that he was "softened" for Leonard,
who knocked WEIGH out "a few weeks
later. Hammer by the same line OF
reasoning figures Tender softened
Leonard.
Three preliminaries will precede
the Leouard-Hammer contest and in
dications are that they will get into

Billy Whiskers
By Frances Trego Montgomery.

While the little group of friends was marching softly away, the kid naperS were creeping around the house, trying to find some door or window unlocked, through which they could enter the farmhouse and get something more to eat. What they had eaten had only whetted their ap- petites.
 Hist, Jim! Come here!" whis- pered Tom. .".Tve found an open window
 He had found low, narrow win. dow, barely large enough for per- son to crawl through, that led into the cellar.
 You crawl in first" said Jim You are smaller than I am." Let's light 8 match and see what's inside first" suggested Tom.
 They won't go off, replied Tom. They are all wet''
 "Go ahead, then, and drop your self through. You can't have far to go before you strike the floor of the cellar and that can't hurt you, can it?''
 GO yourself!" replied Tom. How am I goin' to get out if I hear some one comin'?''
 You're a fraidy-cat. that's what is the matter with you!"
 If you are so brave, go yourself"
 "I would, mighty quick, but I'm too big to sqeee through that little win dow''
 How do you expect to get anything to eat then, if you can't get into the cellar through the window?"
 1T was calculatin' on you handing me out somethin' while kept guard, Or I thought you might perhaps un- lock the cellar door for me-
 "Oh, you did, did you? We'll, you ir,' + to me-"
 Hist! I hear someone comin'!'' v
 Quick as flash Tom forgot his fear of what was in the cellar and dropped through the window. He landed on a pile of potatoes which let him roll to the floor in a, jiffy, while Jim lay flat on the ground and wig sled himself along on his stomach through, the grass, Indian fashion, ,un- til he came to clump of low honey suckle and lilac bushes, under which he rolled and lay perfectly still, scarcely daring to breathe until who ever was approaching had passed. It proved to be the hired man.
 Thank the stars, he didn't have dog to smell me out!" said Jim un- fer his breath.
 Jim ventured back to the window to see how Tom had fared, and he was angry in a minute when he saw by the light of a candle stub which Tom had found that he was quietly sitting on an unturned soap box with a piece of pie in one hand and a chicken leg in the other, devouring them as only a half-starved man can.
 (You'H hear tomorrow what Jim did when he saw his companion en- toying the food)

Dublin, March 18th. The convention
of members of the Irish Republican
army, held at the Mansion House here
today, not withstanding the prohibition
issued by the Dali Eireann authorities
against it, was in session for more than
twelve hours. A resolution was passed
unanimously Teaffirming allegiance to

constitution for submission at a .subse-
Quent convention. Among other matters
upon which the. convention took decl-
sions and concerning which the execu-

to boycott Belfast, and to extend the
boycott to the six Northern counties OF
Ireland. An official statement, which
outlined the above results Of the pro

made last week by Roderick O'ConnOr,

Mr.. Colli0s added that the greatest argu-
