Thomas Mccarthy, Former Big League
 Player, Is Dead

Boston, August 5.-Thomas P. Me- Carthy. former major league star, known to baseball fandom of other aays as one of the Heavenly Twins died at his home here early today. The other twin, Hugh Duffy. now is manager of the Boston Americans.
 From 1887 to 1891 Mccarthy played with the St. Louis Browns in the old American association, under Charley Cemiskey. It was as a member of the famous old Boston Red Stocking champions from 1891 to 1895 that he gained his greatest fame.
 E. Following his transfer from Boston to Brooklyn in 1896, he retired to go into business here with Duffy. Me Carthy subsequently, coached college baseball teams, and as such de- vcloped Bill Carrgan. advising the change which made him a catcher in- stead of an outfielder. He also ad- vised Jack Barry to relinquish his hopes of becoming a pitcher to play shortstop.

 " ilson Keeping Busy.
 Claude Wilson, the popular little fiyweight, who has been Knocking 'em dead of late, faces another strenuous evening Mon day night, when he goes against Frankie Mason, former cham pion. It will be the first time the B. A. C. has brought an ex- champion of national note to Birmingham. and the chances are that they will pack lem In to capacity and then some tomorrow night, when youth goes against age, in what promises to be the best cara ever seen here. Wilson has chance if he can slip through his haymaker. If so he isn't successful in doing this Mason will win the bout on points.
 It certainly cannot oe said that Tommy Tompkins is pushing his boy into the lineup with set-ups. iiN ilttS Ifsd lOdi llEulS, SiuCG He turned professional in Birming- ham. Three of these he won by the kayo route. The other was a draw with Adhton Donza. And, now comes Mason to tackle him.
 On top of that Tommy Is book ing his star into Atlanta Tor Labor Say to go on the bill against Little Jeff. the Baltimore fly weight, who claims the cham pionship of the south. This will be another supreme test for Claude. The Birmingham battler was to have met Tim 0Dowd in Atlanta on that date, but Walk Miller advised Tommy that Tim would be no drawing card since the beating he received at the hands of sammy Sandow.
 You can bet your bottom dollar they're not picking set-ups for Claude, and best of all he has no bankering for set-ups. The little fellow believes in himself, and IS anxious to stack his wares against the best the game and his division can offer.
