HAYDEN. Aug. 9. Mesa and the
Harden Mill team did two sessions of
i-rrorful ball here today, in which the
visitors lost the first one on nine
bungles and the locals dropped the
second by virtue of their seven.
Both scores were big, for there was
a plentiful of hitting on both sides.
The Jewels are now even, having won
and lost to the llayden Mill, and lost
to the llayden Ray Cons. Tomorrow
the- visitors leave for Ray, playing one
game and Tuesday they play the Hay

ONE REASON WHY HE
WAS GENTLEMAN JIM
James J. Corhett, That
Splendid Fighting Ma
chine, in Reminiscence
Appears Greatest of Them
All A Little History
When the world sat up and took
notice of the fact that a great fight
ing idol had been dashed from his
pedestal, and a younger m:in had
come to rule, it asked almost to a
man, who is Jim Corbett?
It was the day following the Sul-livan-Corbott
fight in New Orleans.
The question fell from the lips of
hundreds who had never heard of
the ex-bank clerk, springing into
fame in a single night. All they
knew was he had sent the mighty
John L. to the mat to take the count,
and incidentally surrender his crown
as the greatest fighter in the world,
to a boy, whom he had looked upon
as a fly, to be brushed from his path
with equal ease.
From the very day that Jas. J.
Corbett came into the limelight as a
I fighter, to the present time, lie has
been the most talked of boxer who
ever donned a padded mitt. His. is
a personality that draws like a mag
net. Big, straight as an arrow, clean
cut, well educated, Corbett has always
occupied a unique place in the fistic
game.
Other fighters have mounted to diz
zy heights of popularity with their
wins over other men, but it has re
mained for Corbett to become a more
popular hero in defeat, than when he
wore the champion's crown.
Corbett was eaily nicknamed "Gen
tleman Jim.'' and the title fitted him
like a glove. He was, and is, always
the gentleman. A man, who was at
one time closely associated with the
big fellow, tells many stories of Cor
hett, that go to prove his claim as
the most geentlemaniy fellow who
ever wore a glove in the arena. Cor
bett, soft of voice, and always ready
to step aside to avoid discord, was
often the victim of his own desire
to keep out of the lime light.
Recalling a night in a well known
New York hotel some years ago, the
erstwhile friend of the ex-champ tells
one on Corbett that goes to show his
rare judgment, and the brain that
made him the best respected fighter
of all times: It was after a bout at
one of the old Coney Island clubs.
Corbett, with Bob Fitzsimmons,
Young Corbett, Gus Ruhlan and Cor
bett's press representative were lined
up at the bar, discussing the fight
they had just witnessed. Into the
cafe staggered a big rough giant, six
feet in his stockings, if he was an
inch. He sized up the chance to get
to the bar, and seeing that the rail
was occupied, he reached with his
big hairy paw for the press agent,
who chanced to be the slightest one
of the gathering, and gripping him
by the arm, spun him away from the
mahogany, with the remark, "Let a
man get up here that wants to spend
his money." Corbett, who stood next
to his representative, looked the big
fellow over and he, with the half
jag, thought he detected in the "once
over" Corbett bestowed on him an
unspoken argument. Leering into Cor
bett's face he inquired in an inso
lent tone, "You ain't looking for
nothin' are you?" Corbet sized
him up, set himself, his right hand
slipped down ready to shoot up
against the drunk's jaw like the rip
of a pile driver. But it did not leave
his side, instead Corbett thrust his
right into his coat pocket, laughed,
and said in a soft voice to the bel
ligerent stranger: "You win, old
man. good night," and taking the arm

p Left to right: A. F. Wilding, Norman E. Brookes, A. W. Dunlop and Capt. S. N. Doust.
Here's the first photograph taken in America of the champion Australasian tennis team, which will battle
for the Davis cup. The two best players on the team are Wilding and Brookes, who outclass the best tenuisera

of his representative he nodded to
the bunch and stepped out into the
street.
"What was the matter, Jim?" in
quired the newspaper man, "why
didn't you let that hay maker go.
You should have torn that boob's
head off from where you were an
chored. He wouldn't have known
what hit. Anil it was coming to him.
He was looking for it."
"Granted that he was," said Cor
bett.' "The papers next morning
would have said, no matter what the
circumstances, 'Brutal fighter attacks
inoffensive stranger,' and I would
have been held up to the ridicule of
the world. It's the fate of the fighter.
Ninety Per cent of the people believe
to n l.p.itn
There you have the real Jim Cor
bett, gentleman. After all these years
and when his name has been the,
means of .filling theaters wherever he
has appeared, ho is still the same
loveable character. The only fighter
to enjoy the unique distinction of be
ing an elected member of that ex
clusive. New York clique, the green
room club.
Corbett. who has lately deserted
the vaudeville stage for the movies,
bills fair, it is said, to become as big
a favorite in the silent drama as
when he was kingif the boxers.
HIMSELF AS 10 ROAD
Piescott Race Winner to Live on the
Run Between Los Angeles and
Phoenix Until Race Starts
Ellie Wilson, winner of the Phoe
nix to I'rescott road race and an en-
,'ti'ant in the coming coast to Phoenix
race, left Saturday evening with Bev
! erly Cox in the latter's automobile,
for Los Angeles. It is Wilson's pur
pose to go into the race, the . best
informed rider in the list, and so
he can attain the sum of road know
ledge he thinks necessary, he is going
over the race course from both ends.
All the way to Los Angeles, he
will study the road from behind the
wheel of the car, and then, will take
a motorcycle and come back as far
as Yuma. He will make several
trips over the California leg of the
route. About September 15, he will
return, take his old blue wagon and
begin hitting the rhoenix-Yuma
stretch of the road, trying for speed
between the checking stations, until
he can schedule himself absolutely
over every stretch.
He has been asked to make regular
reports on the road conditions, and
these, together with interesting in
cidents on the road, will be published
in The Arizona Republican

Lion Theater Secures Movies of the
Second Great Globs. Girdling
By American Ball Team.
Sports afilm would be a good
comprehensive title for the six-reel
Eclectic release, which starts at the
Lion today, with the Giants-White
Sox world tour pictures. From the
start m Cincinnati to the ga-lorious
finish in New York City, when Presi
dent John K. Tener greeted the big
league globe girdlers, the tossers
were ground up into little bits of
inch-square photos for the delecta
tion of the movie fans.
There is a peculiar relationship be
tween fans and movie fans, and this
is the time it can be shown. Those
who love their baseball, and can re
cite the bookkeeping on all their
favorite players, and those who keep
up with the whirlwind changes of
the silent drama are similarly af
flicted with the great unrest. In the
world tour, there are many interest
ing features beside the games the
experts put on for tho people of
those foreign lands. The vivid im
pression made on the aliens by these
exponents of America's great game is
portrayed in the film, for it shows
the crowds and the big guns who
came to see the games aye, even
unto the rulers of the nations. In
cidents which were cabled to Ameri
ca and spread upon the pages of the
Pink sheets are depicted just as they
happened, and those who followed
the tourists around the globe will
recognize the plays that they read
about.
The only kick the fans have on the
arrangement is that the stingy film
agency will only supply one reel at
a time a week between successive
shows. But it's all coming, for the
Lion has booked the half dozen solid
for the next six Mondays and Tues
days. . o
BOY FINISHED THE SNEEZE
A small street urchin from the city,
who was spending some time in a fresh
air camp, was the source of considera
ble entertainment to members of the
family at a farm where he frequently
called for milk and apples.
"Whaddye think about the youngster,
anyhow?" the farmer asked his wife
one evening.
"He's a nice little fellow," the wife
replied, "but I can't just make him
out."
"How make him out?"
"Every time grampaw sneezes 'Ischl'

JOE JACKSON
BY A. M. CORRIGAN
I-
Red McGhee Says:
Where Carolina's rough an' wild
there used to be a husky child some fif
teen years ago. who played ball with
the mountain boys. He always was
the one big noise. They called him
Dixie Joe. The years ain't hushed his
noise a bit. They're like a sounding
board for it it's louder every year.
Joe keeps on pilin' up safe raps al
though hi team, the luckless Naps,
have pulled up in the rear.
Joe ain't got any pretty lines. Apol-lo-ing
ain't where he shines. He don't
run much to grace. But when he grabs
his big, black stick an' bangs that ol'
Reach ball a lick the outfield stars a
race. Joe's running ain't a handsome
sight but then it's got the speed all
right as all the catchers know. He's
some wildcat around the sacks, hook
sliding 'round the ba.semen's backs an'
beatin' out the throw.
He fields some, too has one swell
whip. But battin'a earned ol' Joe his
grip on all the million fans. On those
old, til' Polo grounds one day he hit
one that just flew away across the two
deck Stan's. They claim it was the
longest swat that ever left that classy
lot where Faker won his fame. His
team may strand on last place sholes.

GETTING OUT OF DANGER ZONE
While visiting a nephew in New
York, Uncle Hayseed stopped in front
of a movie poster, on which were dis
played pictures of lions, tigers and
other African wild animals. "Great
guns, Henry!" he said to his nephew,
I'm mighty glad I leave town Saturday
afternoon.
"Why are you so anxious to get
away?" asked his nephew.
Pointing to the poster on the wall.
Uncle Hayseed read aloud the words,
"To be released on Monday."
It was with apparent equanimity that
Phoenix faced a Sunday without
baseball, and perhaps 'twere better
thus just now. It will make the pas
time graced by the old-time stars
of last year, seem all the more, at
tractive. What? Hadn't you heard
that rtitchie, Togneri, Whitt, ("low
find others of the 1913 Solonical
lineup would be here soon?
. .
We will proceed to tell you about
it. The prospects are very good, af
firms Clow, of getting the famous
trio back. . In fact, it is almost sure
that The Honest Japanese Schoolboy
will return to the capital city.
Says Clow: "Togneri is hitting fine,
but he wears a large frown over having-
to play outfield. Yunno Big Scott
has the first sack cinched on that
Fay team, and as he is hitting fine,
too, Tog has to perform in the wil
derness. But you just otto see Whitt!
Whitt has grown some, and his legs
is bigger'n they was, and he is hit
ting great The other day he went
over second base, speared the ball,
and flipped it between his legs for a
put . out. And Kitchie, he ain't what
you might call goin' back none. Wcs
is steadied down a lot since he was
here."
Clow is in Phoenix on a diplomatio
mission. In other words, he isn't
doing anything. He got his release
from the Ray team on account of a
flare-up he had with the manager,
an Individual named Adams, who
ain't for drink except in soda stand
complications. But Hap is still the
same old Clow. He will probably be
hitting better this year or he would
not have stuck with Ray as long as
he did, for Ray demands a baseball
person of unquestionable willow
swinging ability.
Smokey Jose (Smiley) Sonoqul is
going some. He has been hurling to
Pep Cook lately, and has steadied
into a regular pitcher. Ray works
him with Masters, the expert port
sider, and the two can operate a lot
of official misery for the opposing

Mm BE OPENED
Interdiction Against Them
and Churches in Turkey
Having an Irritating Ef
fect, Destructive of Inter
national Relations .
CONSTANTINOPLE, Aug. -.It
appears that a large proportion of
the Ottoman Greeks are weary of the
maintenance of the patriarchal inter
diet whereby Greek schools and
churches are closed throughout the
Turkish empire.
The measure seems to have been
adopted against the wishes of the
patriarch and in accordance with the
desire of the majority of the hply
synod. If it has embarrassed and
annoyed the porte, it has in no wise
benefited the Ottoman Greek laity
and in no wise prevented the ex
pulsion or emigration of over 100,000
Creeks from Anatolia. The further
maintenance of the interdict is un
likely to serve any useful purpose,
and is indeed calculated to strengthen
the impression that the majority of
the holy synod are influenced rather
by sympathy with the political as
pirations of the Hellenic extremists
than by a desire for the welfare of
the orthodox church in Turkey or
for the material and moral well
Leing of their sorely-tried flock.
At a moment, to, when, despite
the violent and melodramatic utter
ances of Enver Bey and other Otto
man politicians, moderate states
men, such as Talaat Bey, are un
doubtedly working for an under
standing with Greece, it would surely
he wiser to withdraw the measure,
which would otherwise contribute to
the continuance of Graeco-Turkish
tension.

Hire a little salesman at The Re

batsmen. Clow avows that Smiley's
slow ball is the best he has ever seen.
Cook has been catching a great
game, but, as always, lacks hitting
ability. Jenkins, the other runaway
catcher for Phoenix, is the man with
the sticrf. It do be said that the
Ray fans collected some two hundred
odd bucks for Penkins after he had
broken up the Hayden Ray Cons
game with that over-the-mountain
homer with the bases full last Sun
day. Ha! Ha! So Teddy Tetzlaff went
and broke tho half-mile track record
at Salt Lake! We'll bet this is ex
citing. We can remember the timo
when all a motor-racing person had
to do to gain everlasting (localized)
fame was to smash some track rec
ord Barney Oldfield had made when
a wheeze-cart capable of making fif
ty miles an hour for five consecutive
minutes was a thing of tremendous
importance.
Poor old Jack Johnson! He now
has to fight for France. If Johnson
survives the bullets of the Dutchmen,
and doesn't get scared into a jeemi
my fit, he will yet set himself firmly
on his two large flat feet and drag
a haymaker out of his hip pocket for
some light-complexioned pugilist.
Fighters that face the proposition of
no roped arena for some time to
come are Johnson, Carpentier, Le
Doux, Walsh. Wells, Clabby, Smith,
Shugrue, McGoorty, Saylor, Bronson,

The eight last named are marooned
