Newcomer Victor
Over Mrs. Mills
After Hard Fight
The surprise of the women's annual
Long Island championship lawn tennis
tournament yesterday afternoon on the
clay courts of the Woodmere Club was
the defeat of Mrs. David C. Mills by j
Mrs. G. B. Hirsch, with the sets going
at 1?6, 14?12, 6?4, in a second round j
match. Miss Clare Cassel worked her
way through to the semi-final round ?
by defeats of Mrs. Samuel Waring, at
6^-4, 6?3, end of Mrs. W. H. Pritch- j
ard, at 8?6, 7?2. Three matches were !
played in the doubles, and the mixed
doubles will start' to-morrow.
Mrs. Hirsch is new to tournament
play; hence her victory was all the
more praiseworthy, for Mrs. Mills ia !
a difficult opponent to get the better i
of. Mrs. Hirsch, after dropping the
opening set, quickly started the second
with unflagging spirit and determina?
tion, and she and Mrs. Mills had many
desperately fought rallies from deep
court, both trying turns at winning
the games up .o 12-all, when Mrs.
Hirsch broke through and took the set
at 14?12.
In the third session Mrs. Mills,
plainly tired from her previous
efforts, fought pluckik-, but she could
not hold off Mrs. Hirsch's aggressive
attack nor place the ball out of her
opponent's reach.
Both Mrs. Waring and Mrs. Pritch
ard forced Miss Cassel to a fast pace
throughout her two matches, and it was
only by using frequent change of pace
to catch her opponents out of posi?
tion that Miss Cassel won in straight
sets.
Mrs. Mills and Miss Florence Ballhi
formed a powerful team in the doubles,
defeating the combination of Mrs.
"Nathaniel Dain and Miss Grace Graham
at 6?2, 6?3 in the first round.
The losers are lackin,g in the great
tournament experience of the former
team, and this formed a decisive factor.
Mrs. Dain brought off several brilliant
drives across deep court for clean
placement aces and altogether showed
a decided improvement in her play
yesterday. Both Mrs. Mills and Miss
Ballin performed excellently at the net
position, and their driving was severe
and accurate.

Niles Earns the Right
To Oppose Johnston
BOSTON, July 27.? Nathaniel W.
Niles crowned h ia week of victorious
tennis on the turf courts of the Long
wood Cricket Club this afternoon by
defeating L. B. Rice, of Harvard, at
6?0, 6?1, 6?3, in the final round of
the annual Longwood singles lawn ten?
nis tournament.
Niles has been playing better tennis
in this tournament than he has shown
in the last three or four years, and
against Rice to-day he was always dis?
tinctly superior. His ground strokes
were so well placed and carried so
much speed, that Niles could come in
behind these forcing shots for brilliant
sessions of volleying, and he handled
lobs with cons?mate skill, earning
many clean aces in this manner.
By winning the classic Longwood
tourney, Niles earned' the right to
challenge William M. Johnston, of
California, the national champion and
present holder of the Longwood Bowl.
Johnston is still in England with the
Davis Cup team, but will start for the
United States on Saturday. He and
Niles will meet at Longwood some time
next month.

At Columbus Goes
To Millie Irwin
COLUMBUS, Ohio, July 27.?Fav?
orites did not fare well to-day on the
second afternoon's card, incident to the
mid-summer grand circuit meeting. '
There also was some woe connected
with the "upsets" in the Shepard and
Swisher 2:11 trot, purse $~>,000, the
feature event.
Royal Palm, heavy favorite in the
auctions, once selling for $400 in a
ticket totaling $1,135, made a break at
the half-mile post in the first heat and :
was distanced. Millie Irwin, a third I
choice, won the heat from the large |
field of fifteen starters. She and Alta j
Donovan were about equal favorites at
the start of the second heat, but Alta I
won in a nice stretch drive.
Just as she slacked up after passing !
the wire. Alta cut her tendons in the
left front leg severely and had to be i
drawn. Millie Irwin then won the third
heat and the race, when Arion McKLn
ney broke 100 feet from the finish. I
Alta Donovan will be unable to race ?
any more this year.
Fayonian won the 2:20 trot for two- !
year-olds ?n straight heats. Jane Vol?, !
the original favorite, being forced to |
accept third money. George Volo, a !
second choice, defeated a good field in
the 2:10 pace in straight heats, in- ;
eluding Hazel Kuerstner, a well-played
favorite.
Charley Rex made one of his weird !
breaks in the first heat of the 2:05
trot, the Neil House Stake, and Murphy
was busy getting him inside the flag.
He finished last In the small field.
liaron Cegnntle slipped through and
paid $59.60 on a $2 mutuel ticket as he
won the second heat from Charley Rex,
who then went on and won the third
mile. In the fourth heat Baron Ce
gantle took advantage of Charley Rex's
usual break and captured the deciding

Leatherface
Wins Feature
From Recount
Applegate's Four-Year-Old j
Gets Great Ride and Runs
Favorites Into the Ground
By W. J. Macbeth
C. A. Applegate's imported Leather
face, a four-year-old brown gelding by
Prestige-Langue de Chat, won the
Morrisania Handicap at a mile and a
sixteenth, the feature race of the Em- !
pire City program, yesterday after- j
noon. In winning Leatherface proved
himself quite a handy thoroughbred to
have around any man's barn.
It was the third victory of five starts
in the East this season for the five
year-old gelding and only once in his
five trials did h6 finish outside the
money. A short time ago Leatherface
was meeting 'platers. Yesterday he
beat stake horses. Nobody had any
idea until yesterday just how good
Leatherface was. It is safe to say he
will never be. so cheaply regarded as
he had been before turning in his last
winning effort.
Leatherface was straight as a string
at the end of the mile and a sixteenth,
and there is little doubt that Charles
A. Stoneham's Recount, which was j
favorite, would have won in a few
more strides. Recount was running
over Leatherface at the end. But
Leatherface simply raced into the
ground such a good horse as J. J.
Hallenbeck's Kashmir.
A Million-Dollar Ride
The victory of Leatherface was a
tribute to horsemanship, as well as to
thoroughbred stamina. Andy Schuttin
ger, who had the leg up, gave the I
gelding a million-dollar ride every j
yard of the way and a billion-dollar !
finish. He couldn't have ridden bet- !
ter had the Empire City racing estab- ?
lishment been the guerdon of his ef- j
fort. So much cannot be said for Mc- ]
Atee, who rode the favorite.
McAfeee is fast degenerating into the '
apprenticeship class. First thing you
know the Ponce? and Widas will be ;
giving him lessons. During the after- ?
noon McAtee succeeded in having three j
good thoroughbreds beaten. One of
these was Recount, which was weakly
handled. -Almost any sort of half?
way decent ride would have brought
the favorite home a winner. As
usual McAtee was pulling up just
about the time the barrier was sprung.
Then through the backstretci ne went
all over the track, undecided whether
to wait for a chance of coming through
on the rail or of going around the pace?
maker. He dilly-dallied until Leather
face- had stolen a commanding lead that
could not be whittled away, despite
Recount's courageous run through the
stretch. To say the least, Kashmir
made a dull and greatly disappointing
effort.'
It was a mighty tough day for the
?talent. Upsets developed so suddenly
and came in such regularity that by
the end of the feature the players were
pretty well cleaned and timorous of tak?
ing advantage of the two winning
favorites that closed out tho day.
Starter Mars Cassidy was largely re?
sponsible for the first two upsets.
Fort Churchill, favorite of the open?
ing dash at about six furlongs, was off
next to last in a field of ten. And then,
to make matters worse, this favorite
was poorly handled by Ponce. This boy
decided to go out around the big field
instead of waiting for an opening at
the stretch turn. Fort Churchill ran
about a sixteenth of a mile further
than anything else in the race, ar.d was
so good that, despite his many handi?
caps, he would have won in another
stride. He was just nosed out by
F. D. Weir's Turf, which took a "bust"
at the barrier.
McAtee Takes a Nap
McAtee was sound asleep and almost
left in the second race, at a mile and
seventy yards, with Crystal Ford the
favorite. As he had drawn the out?
ride position he wan carried away wide
all the way to the back stretch. Mak?
ing up this .great disadvantage took
so much out of his mount that Crystal
Ford had little left with which to go
after Chasseur, the pacemaker, in the
stretch. Chasseur, ridden by Schut
tinger, was another one to get a run?
ning, hop, step and jump as the bar?
rier was sprung and made of the re?
sult a mere formality from the very
beginning.
The Springfield Selling Stakes, for
two-year-olds, at about six furlongs,
with $2,500 added, was won by George
W. Loft's Guv'nor. The route was
further than Guv'nor was accustomed
to go at top speed, but Barrett opened
up such a long lead in the early run?
ning the colt was able to last, though
he was foliling like an accordion at
the end. The favorite, Gypsy Lad,
probably would have won had he not
been pinched off by Eye Opener at the
head of the str?tch. Cotilletti had to
take up and go to the outside.
W- M. Sheedy's Allivan, which was
coupled with Martha Luckett as the
4 to 5 choice, won the fifth race, at
a mile and seventy yards. It was a
ereat finish between Allivan and Thistle
QuWn, a long shot, but the long shot
was'o?tgamed in the last sixteenth.
Mlle. Cadeau added a little more
balm in the closinc trial at five and

a half furlongs, by winning much as
she pleased after Rolo, the early pace?
maker, folded after hitting the stretch.
The Oneck Stable's Fright was the best
played two-year-old of the field of
eight. The answer? Well.partly Mc?
Atee, who didn't seem to have the ne-rve
to race with Rolo for the lead at the
start and who soon found himself in
a pocket. He had to come around his
field at the stretch turn, and running
over the others at the end cinched
the place from the tired Rolo.

Casey's Home Run
And Single Bring
Defeat to Skeeters
SYRACUSE. July 27. ? Syracuse
scored its first home victory under
Madden's management when Jersey
City was beaten to-day, 5 to 3. Bie
miller was wild, passing ten men and
hitting another, but the locals' victory
was due to coupling their hits with
Jersey City's errors in the first and
third innings.
Catcher Casey, of Syracuse, hit in
two runs in the opening inning with a
hom<? run, and scored the winning
counter in the third after singling.

To Box Miske
On Labor Day
Champion to Meet Old Rival
in Ten-Round Bout at
Benton Harbor, Mich.
CHICAGO, July 27.-?Jack Dempsey,
heavjpveight champion of the world,
was matched late to-day to meet Billy
Miske, of St. Paul, in a ten-round con?
test at Benton Harbor, Mich., on Labor
vDay. (Sept. 6.)
The champion, according to announ?
cement by Promoter Fitzsimmons, has
been guaranteed $50,000, with a privi?
lege of accepting a percentage of the
receipts, while Miske has been guar?
anteed a flat $25,000. Miske has pro?
mised to establish training quarters in
Benton Harbor four weeks in advance
of the contest and also agreed to call
off two scheduled matches.
The contest will be staged in the
open air arena in which Benny Leonard
defended his lightweight champion?
ship against Charlie White on July 5.
Miske is regarded by the promoters
as a logical opponent for Dempsey as
he fought him twice before the cham?
pion defeated Jess Willard for the
heavyweight title. They met in a ten
round engagement in St. Paul and in
a six-round contest in Philadelphia,
Miske claiming to have the better of
the latter meeting.
The St. Paul heavyweight ?3 much
heavier than when he fought Dempsey
the first time, tipping the scales in the
neighborhood of 192 pounds.
The fight will be to a decision, pro?
vided Dempsey agrees, it was an?
nounced to-night.
