terday afternoon, and during that time
they hit the bulb with such vigor and
regularity that eight saintly swatters
cantered across the plate, while the score
board was decorated with links for. the
tallenders. The crop helper came In the
seventh after the Saints had scored once,
with one out, and the game reverted to
the sixth, which makes the official score,
St. Paul 7, Kansas City 0.
The untimely defalcation of three inn
ings really didn't amount to much, as the
final outcome had long since ceased to be
a matter of speculation. Mr. Isbell, whose
•name Is frequently mentioned on the
Kansas City hillsides as one possessing
the art and science of pitching, was
Singled out to do the heavy work, and
tear drops from the sky was an appropri
ate setting for his disamiearance. Others
on the diamond may have wept over his
work, but their lachrymose contribution
was lost sight of In the young deluge that
half filled the ball park.
- Fifteen hits were all the Saints had
time to collect, although they were get
ting nice and. ripe when the fest was
brought to a close. Third Baseman
Wheeler occupied the spot where the
lime light played with four singles out of
four times up. and he was jostled some
' what by Marcan and Sullivan, who each
• warped three of Isbell's choicest offerings.
Sullivan had just knocked out a double,
: scoring Marcan, when both teams had to
take to the high lands to escape the flood.
Ferguson was the hit dealer for the
Saints and he, let them go with the gen
erosity of a Russell Sage advancing va
cation money. Three forlorn little bing
"lets tells what the crew with the em
pyrean clothes did with their bludgeons,
and two of these simply furnished oppor
tunities for double plays.
Isbell Starts Strong
Isbell started out too good to last by
Striking out Jones and Jackson the first
time up and for a few moments it looked
as If the downy-scalped twirler was about
to Inject much sadness into the commu
nity before he got through. Wheeler punc
tured his career with a single down by
short, which Lewee managed to get a
mangier on too late to heave to first.
Lewee was waiting for O'Brien's grounder
and put an artistic kibosh on Wheeler at
second, sending the Saints out to grass
.without any runs.
an Buren clouted the ball to O'Brien
•"in a hurry, but Peter was not found want
; ing and skimmed it to first in proper time.
; Capting Nance gave Wheeler a little cx
i ercise gallop from third and Willie like
| wise expired at first. Sullivan, not Jawn,
i was next up, and after swiveling at noth
ing in particular in two instances, threw
I his bat in the air, wh&re it was hit by the
[ ball. The recoil took the ball out back of
third base and Sullivan was welcomed at
| first. Ferguson reached up in the air and
: brought down Ryan's effort and the score
boy drew another doughnut.
| Kelley didn't find anything to suit, and
did a walking stunt to first, when he was
, relayed to second by Marcan, who kindly
1 hit the ball to the left field fence for a
single. Clingman made an acceptable
sacrifice, advancing his predecessors and
Sullivan caromed off the right field fence
bringing in Kelley. Ferguson maced a
wobbly one which developed into a bunt,
and owing to the retiring disposition of
the visitors' infield, Fergie got to first
before the ball was fielded and Marcan
scored.
Jones high foul scraped the grand
stand coming down, but Butler picked it
off and Jackson ripped off a single, which
brought Sullivan home. Wheeler rattled
the left field fence and Ferguson came in
to the counting place. O'Brien hit to,
Lewee. who caught Wheeler at second for
the second time, and the Saints went back
to work four to the good.
Hill signalized his appearance with a
hit out by short and Butler jammed one
down to Wheeler, who passed it to Mar
can in time to put a quietus on both
runners. Ferguson threw Bonner out at
first and closed the second inning with a
vacuum for the visitors.
Kelley led off for his toilers with a
single into the sinistre field, but Marcan
forced.- the manager at second, only to
be forced there in turn by Clingman. Sul
livan cashed in his second hit, but was

Inactivity, but Sullivan invalidated the
pass by pounding the ball to Marcan who

SCHRECK STOPS HIS
MAN IN THE SIXTH
Cincinnati Fighter Has No
Trouble Landing the Punch
on Ben Tremble .
Ben Tremble, of Eau Claire, signed for
the sponge In the. sixth round when he
faced Mike Schreck. of Cincinnati, at the
boxing exhibition given the visiting Eagles
last evening in the rink on Raspberry
Island.
It looked good at the start. Tremble
bounded into the ring, .and without ado
swatted Schreck a. couple, sending the
Cincinnati man to the floor. Schreck
afterwards asserted that he stumbled
when hit. Schreck responded with a left
swing on Tremble's jaw, and the Eau
Claire man went down. Jumping to his
feet Tremble made a rush and caused - a
mix that appeared to have the stuff^back
of It. The end of the round was prac
tically the end of the fight. - :-y
In the second Tremble made his last
stab, and It was. a dinky one at that.
Rushing at his antagonist he would make
a fearful swing with his'left", which would
be ducked by Schreck, and responded to
by a lively punch in Tremble's stomach.
Time after time Tremble made the same
play, and at the end of the round he was
a pulling, pale, winded piece of humanity
who had lost all chance of winning.
Tremble continued his tactics of at
tempting to swing on Schreck 1 and then
escape punishment by clinching. Gen
erally Schreck responded with lively
punches In the stomach. For two min
utes in the sixth Tremble kept his feet
by frequent clinches and by taking two
nine counts before getting to his feet. In
a mix with Schreck he got a tap on the
short ribs, sank to his knees and re
mained there until ten had been count
ed.
In the preliminary bouts Connie Kelly,
of Chicago, made quick work of Kid Gor
don, of Minneapolis. The latter was not
in the running, being smashed about the
ring in such lively fashion.that he hardly
ha-T~time to realize what had happened.
Kelly hit Gordon on the jaw. in the
stomach, uppercut him, swung on hh....
and otherwise used him as a punching
bag. The end came in the. third round,
when Gordon went down and out.
Tony Caponl, of Chicago, arid John La
Rue, of Minneapolis, went through fif
teen rounds of wrestling without going to
the mat. This was not a fight, it was not
boxing and could not be termed real
wrestling. ■- ■■■■.- - ; < . -

WISE CAMBLERS LOSE
MONEY ON FRAME-UP
Kentuckians Place Roll on Al
leged Ringer Which Finishes
Absolutely Last
LEXINGTON, Ky., June 24.— large
sum of $1,900, by investing- which they
hoped to bring back nearly $30,000, Is the
amount * a coterie* of Paris (Ky.) sports,
reinforced by several prominent local
members of the fraternity, .parted with on
a framed-up ringer race which was to be
run off on the Union Jockey club track,
at St. Louis, on Tuesday last.
For some weeks back a; supposed wise
party has been busy interesting some
moneyed men here and at Paris. in a race
scheduled for St. Louis, in which the
crack Coast sprinter Fossil was to be
substituted for the notoriously bad horse,
Nada, and a coup pulled off as vast in re
sult as the Polk Badget job at Latonla
over a decade ago. One of the men who
was Interested by the slick party in the
deal is proprietor of one of the-most pre
tentious tonsorial establishments at Paris
and another is one of the backers of the
poolroom recently operated in the Bour
bon capital, while the two men caught in
the dragnet here are both heavily inter
ested in Lexington poolrooms.
Bookies Are Careful
The latter, however, only took $100
apiece of the good thing, the other 31.709
coming from the Paris sports. Everything
was cut and dried and last Wednesday
the two Paris sports, accompanied by the
man who said he had arranged the race,
left for Chicago, where the sure thing was
to be played and the hand books in opera
tion in that city wiped off the earth.
They carried a valise full of money with',
them and, according to their own admis
sion, dropped $1,960. but their intimate
friends claim their losses were a great deal
heavier.
The money, it is said, was intrusted to
two men, Crawford and Lucas, and they
were -supposed to have placed the bets.
upon arrival of the party in Chicago they
were told that the hand books operated
i™ such men as O'Leary and Weller would
\§&t take over $15 or $20 on an**/ race run
Over the St. Louis track. The Kentucky
party were steered into the fifth floor of a
building on an out-of-the-way street, near
the heart of the city, where, under cover,
a poolroom was seemingly in operation.
The race In question was on the board,
and, sure enough. Nada was a starter
quoted at 15 to 1. The Kentucky delega
tion asked the room manager what was
his limit, and when he pointed to the ceil
ing, they laid the $1,900 down, and the
biggest bet probably ever registered in a
Chicago poolroom, on such a long shot,
was recorded-
* Nada Never Heard From
The race was finally run and over, and
Nada was never heard of. The form
sheets showed the good thing was seventh
for Dart of the distance, but in the end
wound up ninth, finishing absolutely last.
The Kentucky sports then tumbled that
they had been done good and brown, and
that Nada was no more Fossil than Hom
iny Bill would be Hermis. The manipula
tor of the deal was called upon to explain,
put he avoided Immediate trouble by ask
ing for time to hear from the St. Louis
track. ;
The Kentucklans, however," to protect
themselves, if such a thing was then pos
sible got a warrant against the manage
ment of the poolroom where the money
was bet, and he Is now in custody In the
Windy city. It is their belief that the
party who framed the race went n for
a skin game solely, and never even had
any communication with the owner of
* ossil. It was simply one of the worn-out
tricks of skin racing in a new form to
catch the wise ones.
The outcome of the case" will arouse
much interest, as the Kentuckians ■ say
they will prosecute the poolroom manager
at Chicago that accepted the $1,900 to the
full extent of the law. , . "
MEMPHIS BACKERS OF

TWO SPEEDY HORSES
ARE OUT FOR TODAY
McChesney and Gold Heels
Scratched From World's
Fair Card
ST. LOUIS, Mo., June Gold Heels
and McChesney will not be starters in
the world's fair handicap tomorrow. This
much was decided today.- Gold Heels has
gone lame in his work, his old trouble re
turning. McChesney has not even be ship
ped here, it is said, as Trainer Sana Hil
th'eth has decided that the big chestnut is
so far from ready that he would stand no
chance at all of - taking'• down - any part
of. the $50,000 prize. A world of money
Is thus passed to the .futtire bookmakers,
as both horses * were heavily played for
the- race. ? '
The announcement of this was a* great
disappointment to turf followers ; here and
a crushing blow to the hopes of the race
track management, • which * had * hoped that
the field would be- a model, of high-class
horseflesh and one i that would stand for a
long .time as the high-water mark for
class and numbers.-" "' ■"
Hermis Does .*[. Fine Trial. _
Hermis is. regarded as the natural fa
vorite of the lot that remain in the run
ning, and today no better than 8 to 5
could be obtained from any of the book
makers. The'trip to this city appears to
have done-him no harm at all and in his
final workout today he showed all of his
great speed and ability* to go the route.
Trainer Aleck Shields timed the mile and
an eighth in. 1:58. While a -number of
other horsemen that 1 witnessed the trail
caught it as fast as a 1:57%. He pulled up
perfectly, sound and r full of running and
afterward cooled out in perfect shape.
Colonial Girl, weighted at only 97
pounds, is regarded with Bernays, of
Rome Resypess' stable, as* having the best
outside-chances of taking down the long
end of the rich stake. Both have been
heavily played in Chicago and other places
where future books are being operated. It
is known that Respess has advised his
friends to play the "stable companion of
Dick Welles and - that S they have taken
his tip as they always did in the past.
Respess has the reputation of sending his
horses to the post ready for the hardest
sort of a race, and i^Bernays* shape at
present bears out the crafty trainer's rep
utation. "** « T
Mare Shows Fin A Form
Colonial Girl had a final mile and an
eighth workout for the race this morn
ing and on a track that is fully five
seconds slow turned off the route in 1:59,
and that, too, with 121 pounds up. This
is regarded as exceptionally good for the
mare, and there is little doubt she will
be heavily played.
Jockey Bullman is here, but since Mc-
Chesney will not go to the post he is
without a mount. Aubuchon also Is here
and will ride Colonial Girl.

Lennon Denies Purchase of In- *
terest In Toledo Team
Who owns the Toledo baseball club?
Advices from Toledo state that George
E. Lennon, president of the St. Paul club,
and President Bryce, of the Columbus club,
have bought the club from Charles Stre- .
bel and Harvey Wyley.
Mr. Lennon says that he has not bought
the club and has no intention of doing so. '
Advices from Columbus say that Bobby
Qulnn, business manager of the Columbus
team, has bought the Mud Hens, but that
President Bryce has no interest finan
cially. . -, _ ■•■■*,: jy
The Toledo dispatches have it that T.
J. Hickey is to represent Lennon's' inter
ests and Quinn is to look out after Brvce's
financial welfare in the mangement of the
team. y _
The only thing definite about the affair
is that Quinn has purchased the team,
and left Columbus last night for Louis
ville to assume charge. The deal took
place in Toledo yesterday when Strobel
and Wyley named their price, which was
accepted by Quinn. Strobel refused to
sign the bill of sale, however, and Quinn
secured only Wyley's half Interest
Strobel's refusal to sign the bill of sale
sent Quinn to the lawyers, who assured
him that Strobel's action constituted a
sale, and Quinn announced that he would
bring suit if necessary to force Strobel to
complete the transaction.
When seen last night, Mr. Lennon said:
I have heard the rumor that I have
, purchased a half interest in the Toledo
team, , but I kribw better. I haven't
bought any part of it. and I have no in
tention of doing so. What others are do
ing, I know nothing, but I do know that I
have nothing to do with the Toledo team."
