"MOONEY™ GIBSON RETIRES. Returns to London, Ont., After Thir- teen Years Hard 'Work. George Gibson, one of the greatest ball players of the last fifteen years, has given up his professional career | and has returned ' to London, Ont. He first saw the light of day on July 22nd, 1880, and has been making a business of basebaH for thirteen | years. Gibson went to Buffalo and | showed well, time had a great many catchers, the young player was sold to Montreal anit after two 'season's, he went up to the great Pittsburg organization, to build into' championship 'form. | Gibson was one of the best chases Dreyfuss ever made, RECORD L. AC ROSSE SCORE. By the National 'Club of Montreal Last Saturday. The National Lacrosse Club, of Montreal,. probably made a record on" Saturday last when "they scored seventeen goals in succession in an N. L. U match against 'Ottawa. at Montreal. "Newsy" Lalonde, the | great French-Canadian player, prac-| tically scored a goal whenever. he] felt like it, and is over the fifty goal mark in the records for the season. The Capitals have made a poor show] ing in the league this year, but de- | spite this fact lacrosse has had a good season in Ottawa, and they are! very enthusiastic over the prospects 4 of the national game, CRACK ENGLISH FIGHTER Killed on the Somme--Champin | Jerry Delaney.

Should the Braves w win the Nation- al League flag this season, which seems not at all unlikely, Dick Ru- dolph probably _once' more will be the central' in a world series. The diminutive deceiver has won 10 games in a row and looks to be as good as he was two years ago. The. present position of the Braves, who were less than two games 'behind Brooklyn before Sunday's games, is largely due to Rudolph, If this Boston Club wins it will be a bad thing for baseball, inasmuch as [it is a fair bet that the Red Sox will | be champions in the American league. Having both Hub clubs it would dis- tract from the interest, outside of | New England: Moreover, even in Boston, the Braves are intensely un- | popular. - Their conduct since they beat the Athletics in 1914 is respons- ible for this. They are overbear- ing, and are the worst alibi club, when they lose a game, in either | league, I HORSES ARE ARRIV ING the trainer and | For the Meeting at Blue Bonnets | | the Royal Canadian Yacht Club of Course. There carloads of horses arrived at the Blue Bonnets course, Montreal, Jesterday afternoon from Windsor, , for the meeting of the Montreal | | Packer Club, which 'commences on | Monday next. These included the horses of Mrs. Livingston, George M.| Hendrie, E. W. Moore and D. A. Campbell. In the Hendrie lot} which | | numbered eleven, which were in| | charge of John Walters, were Ranch- | ler," Sands of Pleasure, Scrutineer, | Trout Fly, Fair Orient, No Trumps {and the imported horses Exhorter,| Sunny and Sharp Frost. Most bf Mr. Hendrie's horses hage stake engage- ments and the time now and the meeting will: be taken in giving them | proper preparation. W. JE.

Among those in the ship- ment were Pricilla Mullins, Man Slay- er and Simlah. GIANT'S POOR LUCK. Try as They Will They Simply Cans not Win, Try as they will, the New York Giants simply cannot seem to. win a ball game, and the harder they try the worse they look.

The success of the Detroit Tigers { is. founded on the sam inciple that the success of great business houses is founded upon, personality plus ability, but personality first. Detroit has personality and it is personality that attracts people. They never worl qn a They always pull the unexpected. They do things differently. When you see the Tigers, you get thrills for your money something that others cannot offer; you pull for them, no matter against whom they | set, plan. see SYRUP OF TAR & Cop Liver Oil SToPs COUGH: Sold in generous size bottles by all d-alers. THE J. L. MATHIEU CO., Props., SHERBROOKE, P. =P Makers also of Mathiet's Nervine Powders the remedy for Headaches, Neuralgia, and pie the phe rg ng , Gameness and nerve are thé dom- {inating features of the Detroit teams. They pull more brilliant baseball | than any elub in any league. Maybe they do not play according to the are with them, and they always win ore games than they lose. "Tiger rallies" are famous in base- ball, Jennings' teams are never bheat- en until the last man is retired. They have won game after game with two out: in the ninth. They are always more .dangerous when they are be- hind in the score than when leading the other club. Tt is & fightidg out- fit, and people like fighters and ag- gressiveness on the ball field, as well as elsewhere If a man lacks ag- gressiveness, he can expect no.favors from Mr» Jenuigs, and the market is always yawning for him. You can 8 never tell what the Tigers will pull next; therefore people go to see them. Teams that do just what they are expected to do at all times are They are perfect-- but who wants to be perfect?

Racing was resumed around New York yesterday with the opening of a twélve-day meeting under the aus- McCALLUM GRANITE CO. 397 Princess St. 5 HE sociagion at Belmont Park. The erowd which welcomed the thorough- breds back to the Metropolis was un- usually large, and among the spec- many who had not seen | any racing since the closing of the meeting at Yonkers. Although the fields were done too in comparizon with those seen Saratoga, they did not lack in quality. The stellar attraction of the card was the Belmont Park Autumn Handicap, for three-year-olds and up- ward, at a mile and a furlong. It was the second running of this at Motor Boat and Automobile - Supplies Halliday s Electric c Shop, Phone 94 2 repeating itself, as the event went to August Belmont's Stromboli, which won last year.
