ORCHESTRA ENABLED TO TRAVEL BY TIP OF
 FRIENDLY AMERICAN

BERLIN, July 23.-An American dining in a Berlin cafe the other night tipped the leader of the three man orchestra 10000 marks for playing one of his favorite airs The amount was then equivalent to only thirty cents, but it looked so stun ningly large to the musician that he scarcely heard the American add: I'll send waiter around, and you boys tell him what you want to drink
 '1f you don't mind, sir" the leader finally replied. wed rather have the money for that, too
 Another 10000 marks put the leader in ecstacies. for he explained it would help the orchestra greatly in reaching summer resort where it was going for work because the cafe proprietor would not grant an increase in wages.

SHERIDAN BLANKSl MERCER BAPTISTS M SHORT BATTLE

AUBURN, Ala, March 2S,-Sheri dan was right. The 40 score tells the story of a stubby five-inning diamond contest in which the Au- burn Tigers and the Mercer Baptists were the principals.
 Heavy rains in the early after noon left a soaked diamond. but de- spite this handicap the game proved to he an interesting affair, and no errors were recorded during the aft ernoon's performance.
 Each team threatened in the first frame. The Donahue lads made good their threat, while the visitors failed to deliver the final punch. Ham, mack, the lead-off batter for the Baptists, found the pill for three bases. Sheridan. the Tiger slabman, then got busy and sent Wilkes and Smith back to the bench. Sheppard grounded to Arnal, who stopped him at first.
 Captain Gibson, Allen and Red" Griffin each then took a base on in field hits. Arnal then walked, and Gibson crossed the plate for the ini- tial counter of the day.
 While short hits in the various the Tigers runs. Dusty" Knowles, on his second trip to the plate. got his wires crossed and forgot alout the wonderful success netted In the previous innings with the abbrevi- ated hits. and grooved long. hot one to center field. He cleared the sacks for the only home run of the afternoon on this hit.
 Veterans Return.
 The return of Captain Gibson and Big Ed" ShirlinE sent Tiger stock skyward. Each of these well-known gentlemen gave good account of h tynanA A1 ffN. of the, game on account of illness. Slick" Moulton. who is now on the hospital list. will be sorely missed in the hurllng department while he Is out.
 If called on to pick the star of the afternoons contest, the spotlight would be turned on MT. Fred Sheri- dan, who was master of the offerings to the Cody batsmen. Sheridan al lowed only three safeties to the op- posing team, and they were so we'll scattered as to have no bad results for the Plainsmen. Putting smoke on his offerings, with an occasional twister and with excellent control the Bessemer lad finished his task in fine shape.
 Captain Gibson and Griffin led the Auburn hitters with pair of safe ties. chalked up to the credit of each The whole Auburn team handled It's jobs in good shape for the wet field and earliness of the season.
 The feature of the Mercer play was the hot one caught by Ellison, Mercer second baseman, off Aliens bat, after which he threw the ball to Prentiss and caught Gibson off the sack at second. Hammack staged very pretty catch when he caught difficult fly hit out by Shrling.

 NEW YORK. March 23.-The pro- saic mustard plaster has paved the way for a new treatment for pneu- monia which promises to control that disease
 Electric plates are applied to the patients chest and back in this new treatment and the temperature of the lungs is raised.

 Tho new method developed by pr. Harry E. Stewart of Yale and intro- duced at St. Marys hospital. Hobo ken. by pr. H. V. Broeser. carries heat deep into tho lungs without pain and without burning the skin. The electric current flows through the body and some experiments have shown the temperature of the lungs increased to 115 degrees, thereby.
 The experiments with the new treatment-have been successfully conducted with a number of patients so far and in each case improvement has resulted.
 Development of this treatment is considered extraordinarily important at this time. as pneumonia's ravages have been increasing. In New York there have been 3,675 cases so far this year. compared with S.795 dur ing the whole of 1922.

VETERAN GLIDING OF AMERICAN IS WINNER OF CHASE
Sergeant Murphy, 13-Year- Old Nag, Wins Historic
 English SteepIe Chase

LIVERPOOL. March 23.-Sergeant Murphy, 13-year-old American-owned GeIding, veteran of many trials and discouragements over the dangerous Aintree course, at last won a grand national steeplechase Friday, coming home at the head of field of seven finishers in the annual running of the worlds greatest cross-country ordeal. King George and the Prince of Wales were in the royal box with the Earl of Derby. Great Britains most noted sportsman, watching the triumph of the game and daring old horse. Sergeant Murphy is owned by L. Sanford of Philadelphia.
 There were three other American owned horses in the race but none of them finished.
 Sergeant Murphy paid 100 to 6. Shaunupadah was second at 20 to 1 and Conjurer II was third at 100 to 6. Twenty-eight horses ran.
 Seven finishers was an unusually large number for the grand national is run over the severest course in the world, four and one-half miles long with 19 water jumps, banks and fences each of which must be taken twice. Some of these hazards are so flghi as to daunt all but the most daring riders and mounts. Very often there are only three or four horses running at the finish and on one occasion at least the winner fin ished alone.

MIKE M'TIGUE TO MEET CARPENTER

DUBLIN. March 2S.-(By Asso- ciated Press) - Mike McTigue told the correspondent of The Associated Press that he had accepted an offer to fight Georges Carpenter but that it las not been decided whether the match would be staged in the United States or in Ireland.
 Referring to his recent bout with Battling Ski. McTigue said:
 My critics do not realize that was giving away nearly 2S pounds in weight to Siki Neither do they suf- ficiently consider the tremendous dis advantage under which l labcred IS a result of the cut over my eye in the eleventh round and the breaking of my right thumb in the thirteenth round If it had not been for the broken thumb there would have been no need for the referee to award the decision.

phys first winning of the grand national but this great son of Gen. eral Symons and Rose Graft, was the first American entrant ever to capture the race. He had run sec- ond, third and fourth in other years but Canford some time ago took him off the track for two years to use him as hunter.
 The race was a heavy betting affair, but Sergeant Murphy, al though a wonderful jumper, was not very heavily backed to win because he has always sacrificed some speed for certainty in taking the bar riers. This time, however, he came home three lengths ahead of Shaunu- padah, who led Conjurer II by six lengths. Puntgun was fourth. {
 Although Sergeant Murphy was the oldest in the field, all the fin- ishers were well up in years. only one being less than 10 years old, proving again that the grand nation more than of youthful dash and recklessness.
 The failure of Arrivale was a little tragedy, for Captain Percy Whitaker, rider and trainer of the horse. has ridden in the race many times and has yet to win one. He is 53 years old now but has vowed to keep on trying year after year lrtil he comes out in front.
 After the first furry of cheering, King George summoned Sanford, the owner, and Captain Bonnet, the rider of Sergeant Murphy, and pub licly congratulated them, shaking their hands amid more cheers.

AMERICANS ROW WITH OXFORD IN SATURDAYS RACE

LONDON, March 23.-Seating two Americans who have won .'laces among the greatest college oarsmen in the world. the Oxford boat in Sat urday's annual Oxford Cambridge race along the Thames is co ceded the best chance to win since 1913. The two Americans in the Oxford boat are W. P Mellen, formerly of Harvard, at stroke, and F. K. Lane, Of f/Concord, N. H., at No. 4. Mellen has been called by British rowing experts the best stroke that Oxford has had in many years, and Oxford's traditions are engraved with the names of great oarsmen.
 The crews held their final trials Friday and both were in splendid condition. The odds have oh. nged from day to day until at present they are about even. There Is compara- lively little betting, however, for the oxford Cambridge race, although 1t will be viewed from the banks of the Thames by at least 500,00 people, remains a purely athletic and sport ing event, hundreds of thousands of spectators go to the river banks and work up a frenzy of excitement who wouldn't be able to tell the difference between a whale boat and an eight pared shell.
 Four-Mfle Course.
 The course is four and one-Quarter miles long between Putney and Mort lake and is crossed by many bridges, which become so many grandstandS of the multitudes.
 Oxford has won the race S9 times and Cambridge 34 and there was a dead heat in 1877. Oxford has not won, however, since 1913. although the race was suspended during the war-19t5 to 1919, inclusive.
