CHAMPION BLOODY
 MESS AT FINISH
Fights Slow Bout and Is Easy
 Mark for Challenger

New York, March se--Ahe Gold stein won the worlds ban,amweight championship last night from Joe Lynch in onc-sided .15 round battle at Madison Square Garden. Goldstein gained the judges verdict after de- cisirely whipping his rival an the way in title match between two yet- cran New Workers.
 Lynch was dethroned after one Of tfe sorriost exhibitions iiteholder has glven in Metropolitan ring in years. He fought sluggish. iistIess battle from start 10 finish. He was a mark for GoldsteiB's rspid-fre left iab and rocked repeatedly by the challepger's solid right crosses to the ribs and chin.
 Goidstein, on the other hand, fought hcady, resourceful battle. At times he seemed slow to, follow up his advantages but he successfully blocked most Of the champions ral. lies and kept ID relentless fire with his left. Lynch was unable to solve that constant iabbing and he did not seem to have his strength to keep up anS sustained assault himself.
 Lynch IladIy Beaten.
 Goldstein had Lynch tottcring in the second round with smashing right hook to tho jaw. It dazed tbe champion, but his scncralship saved him. Again iu ths twelfth, Gold stein had Inc titleholder shaky and drew crimson stream from the latter's nose. Al the finish, Lynch was a badly battered champion while his conqueror showed no signs Of battle.
 Goldstein's triumph gained him without dispute ihe goal he had previously gained temporarily, in New York state, and more than even- cd the score for the knockout he sus- tained at I.ynch's hands in 1890 be- fore the latter ruled any fistie heights.
 Had Stormy Career.
 Lynch, who had won, lost and then regained Inc 1is pound crown in stormy career. forfeited tempo. rarily his title recognition last Oc- tobcr when an injury forced him 10 withdraw from a title fight with Joe Burmsn, Of Chicago. Goldstein substituted for inc champion and by winning the decision gained title rec ogniiion from inc State Athletic com He held this until a month ago Nh 'n the commission rein.tated Lynch on condition he accept a bout with Goldstein.

BASE RUNNING DUE
 FOR REVIVAL NOW
All Managers Will Speed Up Men
 on the Bags
Major league managers seem 10 b.

Major. league managers seem 10 be positive that the coming season is to witness a revival of base running.
 For the first time in at least five years every major league club is pay ing particular attention to that feature l of play.
 The old sliGing pits that for years have been abandoned are now n part of the daily training routine in the south. Each club has several Of the vets adept in the art of sliding, serve as instructors. About a month ago John McGraw. manager of the New York Giants, an- nounced that he had signed Arnando Marsans, star in his day as base runner, to osnstruct the Giant rockies and regulars.
 Possibly the attitude assumed by MeGraw relative 10 base running caused the other managers to fall into line. Suffice it is to say they are all doing it,
 The lively ball has for the time practically ruined the art of base run ming. It took the premium off the one-run system, Stealing a base is playing for a run.
 In addition to the lively ball the elimination of trick pitching also worked against base running. A fall- ing off in the effectiveness of the pitchers made for hitting, not base running.
 - Get 'em in clusters, instead of get ting them ont at time, became Inc slogan in baseball. That system call ed for brute force at tho bat rather than strategy on the bases.
 Keeping new balls almost constantly in play also made for more hitting.
 
 When inc pitchers reign supreme, the cry is for more hitting. When tho batters get the upper edge, the sym pathy goes to the poor pitchers.
 President Johnson of the American league started crusade last fall that resulted in the present situation, which makes the managers believe is going to mako base running much more important feature.
 The American league head sent a bulletin 10 his umpires that more care must be used in throwing of balls out of play. II resulted in the judges Of play using just about half as many balls as formerly.
 This naturally made for moro old and dlscolored balls in play. Not only was the ball expense greatly reduced but the. effectiveness of the pitchers accordingly increased.
 During the last two months Of the American league race the pitching improved at least 30 per cent.
 The National league followed suit and got similar results.
 
 The experiment has caused the big league managers to assume that ono run win decide many ball game

Have you noticed the ballyhoo from the spring camps so far this year has been centered on veterans rather than youngsters
 This may be due 10 the fact that no Kamms. o'Connells or Bentleys came up last fall. preceded by purple clad trumpe,ers and breath-taking stories of enormous purchase prices. Inc million dollar beauties, there fore. arc not basking in the rernal spotlight.
 Another reason, and Of probably greater significance, Is that the ma ior league manager has resolved that it Is just as important 10 have his sriz,lod veterans ready for top.speed performances in April ss the young. sters who may or may not come through for him.
 Heretofore it has been the policy of Ire average manager 10 permit his veterans 10 round into form slowly. In many cases the old reliable. have been permitted to report late and 70 condition themselves as they saw flt. lt wasn't essential that they be on iazor-edge by April. The middle of May was time enough.

lAG tEIS ON EDGE
 Hot Springs, Ark, March 2..- Why shouldn't the manager lend every effort 10 have his veterans in the best possible condition by opening day?
 Very few youngsters are going to better the performances turned m by some of the established stars last year.
 Consider these plucked at ran dom: I.uque of Cincinnati led the National league pitchers in games won and in strikeouts: Carey of the Pirates led bis league in stol- en bases and three baggers; Peck inpauEh of the Washiugtons ac- cepted more chances than any other shortstop in the American league, and was the best sacrifice hitter.
 Collins of the White Sox, was the best base stealer; Speaker of the Cieyclands made more two base hits;' Jamieson of the same ttdiii iiiduc tHs ihust uiia, GIutl of the Yankees led the short stops in fielding averages and hung up world record for con- seeutiys games: Coyeleskie of the Indians was the leagues most effective pitcher: Pennock of the Yankees was high pitcher in the percentages.
 McInnis of the Braves made the most sacrifice hits in the Na- tional: Roush of the Reds the most doubles and Williams of the Phillies the most home runs. All of these players are vcter. ans of many years service, none will ever see thirty again and several are drifting close to the forties. Yet they still rank with the stars.

Winton felt utterly worn out after
the day. An unreality hung over the
past; it seemed as if everything had
been a dream since the night in Shell

Wlnton was about to 20 TO bed when
there came a feeble tap at the door.
When he opened it he saw Judge Da-
Wis standing there, wet through.
He was shocked at the change in
the judges aspect. lie seemed to
have aged a dozen years; he was an
old, broken man. He came forward

Winton tried to get him to take off
his wet clothes, but the Judge shook
mis- head vacantly, as if he hardly I'M
derstood.

about that day." he asked, with moth
ing in his voice In the least like a
quaver.

l lost my soul long ago l thought
I'd gained the whole world, but it's
all slipped away-it's all slipped
away"
You've found what you wanted
most, judge" said Winton, plying the
old man with all his heart. You've
found your daughter"
And suddenly the conviction was
borne in upon him that the old queen
of the village was Davis wife. The
shock Of the realization was paralyz-
ing. He said nothing of this-how
could he tell him that his wife was
living? He said nothing as the Judge
went on
Eyes. I've found her. I've been a
