TWO SHUT-OUT GAMES BY THE MILLERS MAKE IT AT A RATIO TWENTY-ONE TO NOTHING FROM HUGHEYS, WHILE WHIT MANS TRIM THE WHITE AND WHITES. Roth games at Maxent park Sunday afternoon proved one and the same thing one team in good shape, while the opposing one was punk. It turned out that the Millers had things their own way with the Hugheys, while the Whitmans shut out the White & "Whites, after three pitchers had been niado use of by the Haberdashers. The scores stood as follows: Millers 21, vs. Hngheys 0; Whitmans 9, vs. White & Whites 0. B'or the Hugheys, Baisden and Roach and Weber were in the battery roles. Filling the name positions for the other teams were: For the Millers, Shuttleworth and Motta: lor the Whit mans, Bonifay and Oibson; for the Whit & Whites, Touart and Mcintosh and Farinas, and Cowgill. A, Bicker, perhaps, was the "star" of the Whitman-White & White game, Chitting where and when he pleased, u ?eemed. Barrow, for the Whitman-?, did some record-breaking base stealing getting four or live; the scorer was tired of keeping up with him. Motta caught a good game for the winning Millers, and he had a good aide in Shuttleworth, who pitched classy ball, which showed up in good shape in the ultimate resume. Gould was another slugger for tho Millers, landing at will, and his stick work wae responsible for more than one of the many scores made. Ic Just looked like one team did not play In either game, their op ponents doing all the winning work, which means the scoring, at all times. One of the pleasing features of the double bill, however, was the umpir ing of Erwin, whose decisions were not faulty, thus giving absolute satis faction. A very disappointing crowd was on hand, and unless the attendance picks up, the players are not going lo feel the least overly-encouraged to play the great national fame. The score follows: Firet game R. H r. l-j. Millers 21 Hurheys o n Second game White & Whites , Whitmans H. a H. HOW THEY STAND. City League. Won. Lost. 1 Pet. .750 .500 .n00 .250 Whitmans .....

The locals de feated Apalachicola hero today by the clos'" score of f to 5. The game went eleven innings and was one of tho prettiest seen here this season.

This is the second consecutive time Apalachicola has gone down ti defeat before the hard-bitting bcnl. Ratteries: Apalai-hicola. Hindles and McCormick; Port St. Joe, West and Kinsaw. This game was won without biased decisions by the umpires in favor of the locals, as is usually the claim made by Apalachicola. Most Children's Diseases Start With a Cold.

Credible pri vate advices from Me.vieo City report that the Federals at Topilejo, IS miles south of the capital, were attacked yesterday by the Zapatistas. No de tails of the fighting were received but the incident is reg-arded as an im portant development by the authori ties hpre. Topilejo has been the soi ne of num erous clashes during the last few months and the engagements are un usually indecisive, sh.ee the Federals never attempted to follow the retreut ir.sr Zapatistas. It is not considered that the new aetivit- there indicates any intention of a Zapata attack on the capital, as the reported pree rnent between Zapata and Villa move joictly against Mexico City is credited here. The attack will serve, however, to compel Provisional President Hucrta to strengthen his Southern rine at the expense of the Northern front or per- Wf 3t ; v . - , J I j 3 l.j. v-vr. . ;l il 3 . and Caldwell. This year the Yanks are r.ot to be satisfied with anything short of the first division and they are showing a determination to stick at the top of the heap that is fretting their com peers. They are working together liice a crowd of veteran pennant win ners and not the least of th3 reasons why they are where they aro is their pitching staff. Keating and Caldwell in the few times they have been out have behaved in a most capable fasn ion. Caldwell in particular has been displaying class. He has apparently started the season with an eye to ward giving- Walter Johnson a ri valry for shutouts and in every per formance has held the opposition to few hits. Roger Peckinpaush, at short, who has been guiding the team on the field during Frank Chance's sickness, is a person of unusual energy. Roy. Hartzell is often th ringleader of. Yank rallies and with his little bat has started many swampings of the ' enemy.

The reported departure of tho Fed eral gunboats from heir anchorages with the American ships off Tamplco is believed to ! the result of a de sire on the part of the commanders to communicate with Mexico City from Puerto Mexico by the only telegraph wire open to them. They are prob ably seeking instructions to what dis position to make of he ammunition less gunboats which virtually are use less since the fall of Tamplco. It is imderstod that the two Am erican destroyers are convoying the gunboats to see that the coastwise lights and other aids to navigation aro not molested. Wherever the gunboats are finally sent they will be kept un der surveillance by American ships until some settlement In the disturbed country is reached.

BY ASSOCIATED PRESS. Xew York, May 17. The fourth and most important to date of the many international sports competitions in j which the experts of the United States land England meet this year will be gin tomorrow with the playing of the ! Knglish Amateur Golf Championship j tournament ovr the course of the j Royal St. George's Golf club at Sand wich. For thi- golf classic of the old j world America has made the most rep resentative piury in Its history and the j spirit of seeking new fields to conquer ! is most commendable since there was J no organized effort in this direction. earn or trie dozen or so American en trants competing as individuals. That under these conditions the foremos. i amateur players of this countrv should be eager to pit their skill against the best golfers of England, Continental Kuropes and even far away Australia speaks well for their spirit of sports manship and their belief in their abil ity to hold their own againsi Uie golfers of the world. Whether one of those who made the journey from the states to Sandwich will be skillful and fortunate enough to return with the English title as a reward only the next forty-eight hours can reveal. It is natural that the American golfer should hope for such a fortunate repetition of the lf'04 in vasion of Walter J. Travis. This is especially true since England leads at the present time In the general inter national sports series of 19H, having scored with the Oxford University re lay team at Philadelphia on April 25 and again In London on May 6, when K. M. Raerlein defeated Joshua Crane, Jr., of Boston, In the final round of the English amateur court tennis championships Against these two victories America has but one, that In which Jay Gould defeated George F. Covey of London, at Philadelphia in March for the world's open court ten nis championship. There Is, therefore, added Incentive in the attempt to win this, the most important of all English golf tourna ments, and thus balance the score on the eve of other and still greater com petitions for international honors. It needs but a glance at the entry list, however, to grasp the magnitude of the task that faces the American con tingent. The entry for the tournament, which begins on Monday, contains the name of every amateur of calibre, not only of England but several other countries as well. In fact, this tourna ment is to the golf world what the English singles tennia tournament at Wimbledon is to tennls virtually the amateur championship of the world. As to the ability of the players to he met it need only be stated that John Ball, Jr., winner of the- title eight times since 1S?8, In addition to being runner-up on two other occasions, and Harold H. Hilton, four times winner and three times runner-up. as well as open champion, are entered and quoted at little better than even out of -a field of more than one hundred com petitors. Others include Lord Charles Hope, Frencii champion and Tvo Whit ton, the sensational and youthful play er, who holds the Australian open championship and has been frequently compared to Francis Oufmet as to mannerisms and playing ability since he began his practice rounds at Sand- Wieh. While the t'nited States hold.- sec ond place in number of entries by na tions it cannot be denied that the American squad is outclassed numeri cally If not in quality. In view of the time and expense necessary to com pete and the distance to be covered the American entry is remarkable, WHILE AFC MEDIATORS ENDEAVOR TO ARRANGE AN ACCEPTABLE PEACE PLAN FUNSTON'S ARMY AT VERA CRUZ PREPARES FOR WAR I .r- uCv ".Ja y 1 . r- vjUc rj i , . t j.y;.'-'. -7 s a ;yCt;- i WW". oJi&23"c3 r , .-a, v, . . . ;''.iif,t-y'fW('i.! . f 1 :- 1 ":'. ; iwHwVr . .- .': " .- . . . . . :.-.- , - 4 ,. ..- . . - -. m. r m - Top, camp of Funston's troopers near Vera Cruz; bottom, troopers enroute ta the camp. .
