GOUVERNEUR AND PONIES PLAYED TEN INNINGS -- Score Was 9--9--Game Had to be Stopped Once Till a Heavy Shower of Rain Ceased. Gouverneur, N.Y. and Kingston Ponies played a tie ten-innings game at the Cricket Field on Monday after- noon before a large crowd. Owing to the lateness of the hour the game was called at the end of the tenth. - The Ponies had their regular team and but up & good game agalnst the Yankees. Nicholson turned out for the home team and proved of great value in fielding the ball. The visitors were the first to dis- play their ability and in the first innings they showed up better at bat Big Champion Now Weighs Close to Three Hundred Pounds. Speculation is rife as to what Jess Willard's weight will be in his next fight. The champion has been put- ting on avoirdupois constantly dur- ing the past three or four years, de- spite almost constant training. Spending the summer with a circus, where his exercise will be mild, means greater bulk by fall. When Willard made his first ap- pearance in New York he weighed around 220, although he was as tall then as now. A year or so before he won the championship he beamed in the neighborhood of 235, fighting condition. He carried 247 into bat. tle against Jack Johnson, and less than in the 9eld. Cross managed to bring in the first run by a series of Steals. Jones and Love were put out in this innings by a nice double play. Jones popped to Williams and first as he hadn't the speed to get back after Williams caught the ball. The Ponies part of the first innings Was a treat for all who saw it. It was just one clean-up after another. "Charlie" Stewart walked and stole second on a wild pitch, while Nichol- son singled on an error by Shellette. "Jimmie" Stewart singled to left field and Willams walked. Waish singled and made the rounds, bring- ing C. Stewart, Nicholson, J. Stewart and Williams with him. Daley and Jack Evans also made home in this innings on errors of the visitors. In the second innings Lavassar got home on a two-bagger by 'Shellette, and in the third Williams singled and sent Nicholson and J. Stewart home. In the fifth one Love singled bring- ing Helderman home and shortly afterward Cross passed over the plate. In this innings Williams made a swell hit and. just ss he reached home plate on what looked to be a sure homer he was put out. The visitors tightened up after the fourth innings and from that time on the home team cowldn't get a rum Smades pitched a good speedy ball but had very little control, How- ever,-he managed to get sixteen strikeouts und it was largely due to him that the hoe team didn't win. In the seventh innings Gallagher game throughout, got tired and Gouveneur scored runs. In this innings five men walked and the bases were full most of the time and men were forced home a number of times. Cross, Love, Jones and | Smades brought in runs. At the beginning of the eighth {innings the score was 9--9 and thus it remained to the end when the visitors had to leave to catch their boat: The game was quite interesting, and in spite of the rain there was sass DO NOT RISK YOUR FAVORITE LINENS AT THE LAUNDRY, MRS.

That means he will have difficulty reducing to 275 for his next bout. ------ DETROIT'S SUNDAY WIN To be Protested by the Washington Chub: a Detroit, Mich... June 6.--Manager Clarke Grifith has made up his mind to lodge a protest with Ban Johnson on Umpire Connolly's decision which gave Veach a home run on a drive which bounded into the bleachers, in the eighth inning of today's game with Washington, and incidentally won the game for the Tigers. Griffith notified the, umpire when the play came up that he would con- tinue under protest, and he believes | that the league executive will have | to order the contest re-played. The { hit which started the argument was | @ long fly to right that went over the | low screen into the open stand on Lone bound. Ropes had been stretch- | tohold back an overflow crowd earl- {ier in the afternoon, and the umpires had announced that any ball driven {into this crowd or past the ropes | would be good for two bases only. Griffith contends Veach's ball hit in- side this restricted territory, and thus was good for but two bags, re- gardless of where it may have bound- ed subsequently, WHOLE TEAM IN KHAKI Proud Record of Beaches Junior O. AL.A. Champions Manager Johnson, of the Toronto Beaches Club, who won the Junior O.A.L.A. ¢hampionship a year ago, has joined fhe rest of the team who are wearing khaki, having sign- ed up with the 4th Divisional Supply Column, and will go overseas in a few weeks. With the manager in line the whole lacrosse aggregation who won the championship are now wearing the uniform of their country, which is a recordtobe proud of, Last night the members of the team and a few friends presented Manager Johnson with a wrist watch and a fountain pen. A year ago these boys, who were all under the age of twenty years, were busy getting in shape for the lacrosse campaign, and after.a strenuous summer they won the championship from the Midlands and Riverdales. Now with the lone ex- ception of one player, who last year moved with his parents to Rochester, N.Y., they are in the soldier uniform. Four of them are already overseas, while the rest are either training at Niagara or the Exhibition Grounds. ------------ To Box in South America. ' Albert Badoud, the French welter- weight, will join the colony of Amer- | Sou boxers Billy Gibson is taking to South American. Badoud arrived iin New York with the European ti- {he to try to win the world's cham- | pionship, and has been assured that | Gibson will stage a Badoud-Britton { match for the welterweight cham- | pionship. ------ t Pittsburg Releases Knabe Infielder Otto Knabe has been un- | conditionally released by the Pitts. | burg National League club. Knabe was manager of the Baltimore Fed- eral team last season. ---- Player Assisted by Two of His Team Mates in Gaining Third Base and Home Plate i It is not long since Edward Bar- Tow was called on to decide a protest over a freak play in a game in Te; Tonto, where a ball lodged in the catcher's chest-protector. Chances are that Edward will have another odd case to decide within a few days, as Providence plans to protest a pe culiar play in a game 'they lost to Richmond Wednesday. With Clemens on first, Aragon, the Cuban infielder with Richmond, slashed a triple to deep centre. Cle- mens rushed around the paths and crossed the pan just as Powell re- trieved the ball, It was thrown to Shean, who cut it loose to Brainard to intercept the flying Aragon; the pesky pill hit Aragon on the head and. knocked him into the base, bounding off behind the stand and out of sight of the umpires, ~ Aragon fell to the ground and fail- ed to rise, His team mates hurried to the rescue, and with the aid of two players, Aragon was carried from third to the plate for the win- ning run. Rule 17 of section 17 of the rules designating when -base run- ners are out declares that any assist- ance given a runner at third base shall cause the umpire to call him oul. In this case Aragon was not only assisted at third base, but was carried to the plate in the arms of two fellow-blayers. Three minutes later he walked to his position at short field and played the inning out apparently as well as ever, SPEAKER AND DAUBERT LEAD Cobb Gradually Overhauling His American League Rivals Chicago, June 5.--~Ty Cobb is re- gaining his regular stride. The De- troit star is batting in fifth place among the American Leaguers, and has run his stolen base record up to 11, tying for the lead in that depart- ment with Sisler of St, Louis, accord- ing to averages printed here today and including Wednesday's games. Speaker of Cleveland, who still leads the batters, also is ahead in total bases with 74. Detroit leads in team batting with, 260. American League -300. Hitters who have taken pant in at least half the games of their teams are: -- Speaker, Cleveland, .370; Burns, Detroit, .336; Strunk, Philadelphia, .331; Nunamaker, New York, .329; Cobb, Detroit, .327; Milan, Washing- ton, .317; Hoblitzel, Boston, 315; Hellman, Detroit, .313; Sisler, St. Louis, .307; Jackson, Chicago, .306; E. Joltuson, St. Louis, .304; Smith, Cleveland, .303. Larry Doyle, last year's champion in the National, took part in the great revival of the Giants, and with Shulte, Chicago, is crowding Daubert for the lead among the batters of the old league. New York, with the high average of .27°, leads in the club batting, ------ ZEIMER TO SCOUT For the Cleveland American League Ball Team Gus Zeimer, manager of the Ham- {iton Canadian léague club; has re- celved an offer from Lee Fohl, man- ager of the Cleveland Indians, to act as scout. He will likely accept. Zeimer played under the present successful leader of the Cleveland club in Waterbury, Conn., and his ability muss be recognized when he has received such a flattering offer. He: is now playing with the Frank- fort club of the Ohio State league. He regrets very much that the Canadian league decided to lay off for this season, but is of the opinion that it was a wise move. To the Wrong Address Toronto Telegram, Words fitly spoken were uttered by W. D. McPherson, K.C., M.P.P, in his demand for national or provin- cial registration.' But Mr. MePher- son's speech was delivered to the wrong address when the argument was delivered to an audience in High Park. The people who can give this country either provincial or national registration are Mr. McPherson's own leaders in Queen's Park, Tor- onto, and Parliament Hill, Ottawa.
