over 100000 hunting licenses are is
sued each year and that some 5000,-
900 of the holders are interested in
trap shooting.
And at least 1000 of the greatest
shots in the world are now at Dayton,
all set fo- the biggest gun play of
the year.
Who are the 10 best shots in the
world? My inspector. an expert, re-
ports as follows Mark Arie, Illinois;
Heistaind, Ohio; Ted Renfro, Mon
tana; Frank Troeh, Portland, Greg;
Stece Crothers, Pennsylvania; Walter
Beaver, Pennsylvania E. F. Wood
ward, Texas; A. j. Stauber, Califor-
mia; Fred Etchen, Kansas; Gus Payne,
Oklahoma.
This list will get by until some
one can slip through a better one.
At the Iowa State shoot. Mark Arie
broke 395 out of 400 and set q new
world record at mixed targets.
Twenty-Five years ago he bought a
Marlin gun for $50. He has used it
ever since to win over $4,000 in
cash and $3.50, 900 in trophies-which
is no bad investment.
This Grand American is one of the
big sporting turns of the year, and
the gun battle at Dayton this week
will be as keenly contested. with as
much skill shown, as any champion
ship 1884 can show.

Monkeys in Dog Racing Please Ladies.

Its just a stunt-this monkey
racket" said one of these experts the
other evening. ut don't give the dog
a chance to do himself justice. Be-
sides, a monkey carries fleas."
The flea criticism may seem q bit
startling, coming from dog man, but
your greyhound expert is a very sensi-
tive and captious fellow. He feels that
a dog should be permitted to run his
own race without assistance from
lemurs, apes, marmosets or balloons.
Mr.. Roberts. in reply, points out that
dog racing is business like anything
else. He sees no harm in little in
nocent ballyhoo.

flciently to resume play with the
Nationals on their last swing through
the West.
It was felt that the brief term as
an active would benefit Kuhel greatly.
Mainly, club officials believed, 1t would
convince the player that his leg would
not handicap him on the field and
relieve him of Winter of worry test
ing the limb at the next training camp.
This leaves the first basing in the
hands of Pete SuSko, somewhat aged
recruit, for the remainder of the sea-
son. Red Kress, who had done some
work at the initial station for the Ma
tionals, no longer is an active player

Susko really are qualified to take care

SINGLE MEN WINNERS

Some 35 erstwhile athletic men,
bers of the Congressional Country
Club were nursing sore muscles to-
day following a Soiree of batting and
fielding yesterday in which the single
men licked the married men of the
club in soft ball game, 1876.
But what do you eXpect?" queried
Capt. James F.. Meegan of the mar
ried mems team. Haven't they been
practicing secretly for two weeks?
We married men can't do anything
in secret.
Bill MCEvoy's team of single men
pounded hits to all corners of the
field as they walloped Paul Kunkel
and Frank Yates, married mems
pitchers, for 90 or more hits. Martin
Rittenhouse hurled for the single
men and set the married gents down
with only 18 its.

The monkeys of the Roberts

The monkeys have no kick coming, as
Mr.. Roberts points out.
New York State does not set q def

The East has been ripping up polo
fields all over Long Island.
The East may not have potentially
as good a polo team, but it will have
one trained and ready-hard bitten
through many weeks of slashing play.
The same thing will apply to East
ern ponies. In Carleton Burke the
West has one of the best sportsmen
and one of the ablest directors any
team ever had. But human psychol-
ogy is still human psychology. And
overconfidence is still one of the great
handicaps of sport.

YEW YORK, August 27.-Mr.
Eddie Roberts, the big hound
magnate, has just put through

deal in monkeys. Mr.. Rob-
erts reposes the utmost faith in the
ability of the Simian, or primate, to
draw cash customers to a greyhound
racing track, and when you take his
monkeys away from him at one track
he will work them on a double shift
somewhere else.
You can imagine the pain and con-
sternation of Mr.. Roberts when, some
days ago, the State of New Jersey
banned the monkey from all its dog
racing plants. Mr.. Roberts is heavily
interested in Jersey dogs.
He exploits them in the town
of Linden, at the expense of sew
eraI thousand customers nightly,
and 1t was his practice to put
monkeys on the dogs backs
once q week in order to draw the
ladies' trade to his plant.
"The ladies love those monks" ex-
planned Mr.. Roberts short while ago.
Personally, I can take a monkey or
leave 1t alone. No monkey ever has
given me any trouble and, on the other
hand, no monkey ever has gone out
of its way to do me favor. I'm neu-
trail. But the ladies love to see those
animals riding like a jockey. 1t looks
cute, see?"

Hits Three Homers.
BY HUGH s. FULLERTON, Jr.,
Associated Press Sports Writer.

~ ILL TERRY hurt few feelings
- in Brooklyn last Winter when
he asked, as wise crack, II
the Dodgers still were in the
National League. Now he must be
thankful they are.
The Dodgers knocked off Chicago
twice and nearly made it three straight
last week while the Giants were strug-
Cling with st. Louis, and that is the
principal reason why Terry's club re-
main five and half games ahead
after taking q 7-to-1 drubbing yes
terday in the opener of a highly i'm
portant series in Chicago.
An overflow crowd of $4,000 saw
the Cubs open their pennant bid be-
hind the three-hit pitching Of Lonnie
Warneke. Manager Charley Grimm,
who had just received vote of con-
fidence from the management in the
renewal of his contract for 1885, led
the attack with a double and two
singles for a perfect day at bat and
drove in the first two runs. Two hits
by Nell OFT and one by Travis jack
lowed in winning his seventeenth
game of the season.
Cards Remain Pat.
THE Dodgers kept the Cardinals
from registering any important
gain by holding the third-place
club to an even break in a double
header. Brooklyn won the opener,
IL to 5. st. Louis came back to pound
Les Munns for 7-to-2 decision.
Lou Gehrig's three home runs and
the Yankee pitching that went with
them to give New York a double
victory over Chicago. to and
to 0, were the high spots Of the
American League program, although
the Tigers pulled their favorite stunt
of coming from behind to win from
the Athletics in 10 innings, to 6.
After the score had been tied three
times, Detroit beat the AS in the
tenth on the last Of eight walks
granted by Bill Dietrich and dou-

Moves Across the Border.

&ACTOSS tHC DuNuCAs
ER. ROBERTS was grieved, but
Nl not discouraged, when the
State of New Jersey put the
freeze on his Simian troupe. The
State alleged that monkeys were un-
dignifled. Mr.. Roberts alleged that
they were cute. He reasoned that
their cuteness would be just as effec-
tive on the other side Of the State line,
so he took them to New York and in
stalled them at his track in Mineola.
You now can see monkey-and-dog
race twice week at the latter eStab-
lishment. The ladies seem to like 1t.
The monkeys do not care much one
way or another. The dogs are abso-
lutely against the plan, but the dogs
are not consulted in the matter.
After all, the thoroughbred
horse has no choice about
jockeys, and the thoroughbred
greyhound, il he knew some Of
the jockeys of my acquaintance,

Then they cut loose and socked Jack
Knott to make their trimming no
worse than 9 to 5.
AS a result of these two beatings
taken by the Nationals the remainder
of the series promises to be bitter
battle for fifth place. Dropping the
double header, the Cronin crew
skidded into a tie with the Browns
for the second division lead.
1t was an artistic piece Of painting
Blaeholder did in the first fray. He
limited the Nationals to two hits and
a pass and one of the hits was rather
, fluky. In the sixth Travis went up
to bat for AL Thomas and his scooter
down the line took an odd hop over
FRS Baseman Burns head for q
single.
