Chamberlain made his debut with the Hamilton (Ont.) team ELTON CHAMnnilLAl.N. in 1885. In 1R87 Chamberlain wji found with the Louisville club. He pitched that ecfthen and a part of 188!, and in the fall of fhe latter year was sold by the Louisville mnmigcmcnl te President Ven der Ahe for 4,000.

This year, en ac count of differences with Ven der Ahe, et which the public is fully Informed, Cham livrlaln pitched but few games, but he says that he is in as geed condition as he ever was in his life. Daniel Lung' l'liie l'lijiilque. The apiciraiice et Daniel Leng, of the Trlmeunt Athletic club of Bosten, nt sev eral athletic gnmes In the vicinity of New Yerk recently has caused considerable com ment concerning his wonderfully line phy siqiln. When P. Davln, of Ireland, had amateur athletic circles In (ire.it Britain talking of his wonderful powers seven or eight years age It was thought that no ene would lie Ks;n llke him for many years. Davln was geed at throwing weights, nnd half a dozen years age held the Iwst rec ords in the world for the running high and bread jumps, 0 ft. 2i In, and 'i ft, U In. respectively, The combination he dis played of strength for weight throwing and activity for Jumping was spoken of an wonderful. Ills height was 0 feet, uud his weight 103 pounds lu athletic clothes. He was very, wiry,, bnl Indications are that IiOiig.wilt pruvu te be even a better one, fqt although he Is nnn Inch shorter he Is nearly fifteen pounds heavier, and already has made records at throwing weights which Davln never approached. Leng's jumping this spring has been phenomenal, nnd at the running high jump at his club gumesen July 4 he cleared 5 ft. HJf in., winning it nnd beating ether geed men who have records flose te 11 feet. The ground wus peer, which adds extra merit te liug's performance. Although lxing Is a llttle mera stecklly built than Davln lie lias tlie sama wiry bluews, and ha nnd Davln would makeatcam unapproachable by any .ether two athletes for all round weight throwing ami jumping uew en the path. . A Defeated Champien. Edward "Nuue" Wallace, the champion bantam pugilist of England, who was re cently defeated by Geerge Dixen, of Bos Bes Bos eon, for the bantam weight championship of the world, has been iduntllled with tha ring for four yearn. During this tlme lie has fought nineteen battles se en with bare knuckles and twelve with gloves. Helms suffered only three defeats, uud Ihese were iu gleve lights, lle is a geed gleve fighter, !& y "NUNC" WALLACE, but made his reputation without ther.i. He is of Scotch erlglu, but was liern In Birmingham, England, twenty-four years age. He htands 5 ft. U iu, in height und weighs 113 pounds in condition. "Nunc" was regarded as a sure world beater in his class by his En glish admirers, but since his over whelming defeat his admirers have been dropping ene by ene from his ranks and joining thoie of the sturdy llttle colored boy Dixen. It was indeed a Waterloo for the Englishman nud his backers. The champions fought at Hi pounds for a purse of 12.500, according te what are known in America im Police Gazette rules, with four ounce glees. The battle was fought lu a '.'4 feet ring erected iu the gymnasium uf the Pelican club of Londen, IiUiippehitlni;. The games of the Olympio Athletic club, of San Francisce, Cal. , en July 4 did net bring about the breaking of a record, which many had thought would surely happen. The record iu question Is the running bread jump of 153 ft. 8 in,, which Victer E. Schlllerstcln, of the Olympics, has trained for Reme time te beat. The form lie has often displayed show s that en a geed day It he is feeling right he can alter this record, but he Is of a highly nervous temperament nnd any thing that gees wrong Is apt te unfit him for cen a moderate performance. He did net appear en the day In question and the spectators were dUap-Kilutcd. Sehlfferstein, however will try ugaln, for he bays if he attempts the feat often enough some day he will get there. That celebrated bicyclist, William M. Wnedside, ex-professional champion of America, died at I tie Janeiro, Brazll,w here he wus managing n sporting enterprise, durips the latter part of May from yellow .'eu-r.

"V. f ' '" ' '' '' h PirCHEft OF N0tv risnk Knd, th Past lWfcS)r f MM Celambas Clan. Frank Knaus, the fast lefthaadcd pitcher of the Columbus club. U bnt years old, nnd first saw the light of day lu Cleveland, where his ptrenta still reside. He made his first professional appearance In the box With tbe Wheeling Trl-State league dab ITUHK, KNACS. In 1898, under Manager Buckenberger. During the season of 1889 he was with the Detroit International league club, and pitched that organization Inte the cham pionship. He played with the Detroit club until his release was purchased by the Co lumbus management recently. Kuans Is a liewerful, muscular young fellow of ter rifle speed, and for a pitcher ranks away up as a hitter. He Is master of all tbe deliveries, quick nud clean in his move ments, niul Is especially effect! ve when meu ure en boxes, lle is the only left handed pitcher In tlie corps of the Colum bus club, and his accession "fills a long felt want." Dlsenislng the Situation. The recent great performance of 13 ft. i iu. for standing bread jump without welghta by Jeseph Darby, of England, and his clearing en the same day with dumb bells 14 ft, 3 in. for a standlug jump have caused dlscussslens concerning the merit of the two performances, The world's record for a standing bread jump with dumbbells Is 14 ft. 6X la., by Geerge W, Hamilton, of America, and Hamilton novel saw the day when he could clear ever 10 ft, 0 In, without weights. He estimated that there should be a difference of 4 feet be tween Jumping with nnd without weights, and that te lit Darby's ease would make the Englishman able te clear ever 10 feet with the dumbbells. His 13 ft. V,( iu. without weights is a tremendous spring when it is taken into consideration that It was done en level ground with nenrtlllclal aid. Many think he Is keeping quiet lu re gard te what he can de with weights. A Well Kniiitn Turfman. Byren McClelland Is one of the most popular meu In turf circles and the proud possessor of Sallle McClelland, the swift footed daughter el Hindoe and Itcd nud Blue.

The race was a DY1ION M-CLEIXANll. feP Dvr0 ,', vcrltable godsend, for he had been playing lu bad luck for a long time. The amount which Bailie McClelland wen for her owner was 131,385. That victory plated Byren McClelland second en the wiuulng list nt Westchester, the Merris hlnble tak ing first place with t!,010 te itu credit. Caledonian Oaniea. It bes been noticed that there are net nearly se many Caledonian games booked for the summer as iu former years, when all through the northern part et the United States nnd southern part of Canada se many towns would held games. The opinion seems te be nmeng Scetchmen that one reason for the decline is that en account of money prizes being given many athletes were de veloped who mnde sjiccluUles at one or two events and this set would go through the circuit w liming all the prices and actually killing competition, which ieople who attended the games expected te see. Athletes who lake part in these games say that although there are net se many small gnmes ghen there are mere geed ones new than uver, for the large cities in America continue te held their custom-try contests nud ure giving better prizes than formerly. A Columbus Kxpert. It. Jehnsen Is a member et the Columbus team of the American association this year and occupies the same position that he did last season. He showed up tery well at the end of the season, standing Aevcuth in It. JOHNSON, the llcldlng records as a third baseman and eleventh as a right fielder. However, iu he played in but 44 games In the latter potion, It is hardly fair te judge him by the record of such players as Wolf or Vis uer, who were llrst and second respectively. Jehnsen played iu 71 games at third base, msking 70 put outs, 10 assists, 13 errors, and accepted ttt chances out of a total of 110 ellered. Information About t'lli.

A Big Man Who HM Mia Amatew World's Championship at the BtaaMag Mop Hklp aa Janp MU Frewees at Other Kveata. It Is very seldom that a man of laraa and heavy physique steel In ataleMa games requiring actttty, but J, W, lUefc, whose picture Is gives here, Is eae of the few big active men who tarn up occasion ally. Rich Is 28 ream eM.S ft 3 lb. tall and weighs 184 pounds la athletic clothes. His chest measures MK Inches, thigh N inches and calf 18X laches. These figures show that his development below tha waist Is much greater proportionately than that above tbe waist. He has always been fend of outdoor sports, but It wss net until the fall of 1888 that he competed publicly In athletic games. His specialties have been any kind of sprinting and Jumping, bat he has a frame, which, if developed fn the upper part, would probably enable him te threw weights successfully. He became directly Interested In athlet ics in a peculiar way. At the fall games of the Manhattan Athletic club, et New Yerk city, h was a spectator, and after the com petitions were ever he went en the field, where L D.Webster, of the University of Pennsylvania, happened te be. Webster holds the intercollegiate record for the standing bread jump, 10 ft 0 In., but Rich did net knew him, nnd commenced try try lngsemc standing jumps with Sev ern! friends. Friends of Web ster, knowing his prowess at this particular gatue, induced him te jump with Rich, and much te the surprise of all the latter, with his citizen's clothes J. W. rich. en, beat Webster, who was in athletic clothes. Rich cleared 10 ft. 5 In., and Webster could net ceme within an inch and a half of it, but he had been competing during the afternoon ami was tired. The Impromptu competition gave Rich a reputation immediately, and seen after he was a member et the Man hattan Athletic club and were the "cherry diamond" at the first Indoor championship games, where he competed In the standing read jump and three ether events, but be had te give way te the invincible Samuel Creek, of Rich's club. With extra practice he seemed te develop Inte a llrst rate 00 nild TS yard runner, show ing remarkable quickness in getting into his strlde nfter leaving his mark, and also traveling along at a lively gait when under full headwny. He is se big that he makes ether competitors leek almost llke fiigmles, and his long bounding stride is n great contrast with the style used by the majority of ethers. He showed n fond ness for jumping, and although he would without doubt make a capital sprinter should he continue practising, he prefers te use what tlme he has for exercise in growing expert at the various styles et standing jumping. His practice has net been wasted, for at the games of the Froe Free Froe pert Athletic association, of Leng Island, held July 4, he breke the world's amateur record for the standing hop, step and jump, doing 'JO ft. 11 iu. The previous record was L"J ft. Oj ln., and it wus made lul8S0. Iu doing tlds g.tme Rich tees a line, stand ing en his right leg, und hejis about 7 feet, measured te the heel. He then gives u step, iuuding en his left leg, of about 10 feet, measured from heel te heel, nnd his iast effort is n Jump wldch measures Ikj tween 13 ft. OJn. nnd 13 fret from heel te heel. It is n gaine that needs considerable strength in the legs, for there is no run from which te derive impetus nud the movements nre u plain muscular effort Very few athletes can de It well, although there are many geed performers at the running hop, step und jump, where ever 40 feet Is generally cleared. All of Rich's movements whlle making his recent rec ord showed great strength, and us it is a simple gmue te iicrferm, requiring no ap paratus, thu majority of people cau uppio uppie clate Rich's llgurrs by trying It themselves. The ground ou which Rich competed was composed mostly of cinder, which did net held him well whlle making the leaps, and the probabilities nre that he cau add a few Inches te his present record if given a geed ploce of smooth cluy or well rolled turf.

These two prominent eastern organisatien have tbe hug majority of geed athletes in their vi cinity wearing their colors, and the Detroit club has recently taken several well known athletes from adjacent towns'. The rivalry' between the many large athletic clubs in the United States grows mere Intense as the regular championship games In the fall draw near, but the N. Y, A. C. and M. A.

He represented only the latter at tbe Indoor championship games en April 13, and many athletes are wondering why he was allowed te represent the B. A. A. ou June 38 when he had represented the Trlmeunt A. C. within three months. R. K. Pritchard, the champion running high jumper of America and Canada, was debarred from competing en June 88 because he wished te represent the Manhattan Athletic club, and en April 13 he had worn the colors of the Staten Island Athletic club. A rule of the A. A. U. is that no athlete can repre sent ene club within three months of wear ing tbe colors of another one. Its purpose Is te prevent the obnoxious changing of clubs by athletes.

James A. St. Jehn, president of the West ern Association of Amateur Athletes, has arranged a plan of amalgamation of his association with the Amateur Athletic union which wilt lie submitted at the lat ter body's convention nt Washington en Sept. 13. He has previously opposed amal gamation ou the ground that the W. A. A.

The Ottawa Amateur Athletic club of Canada, which has net been organized very long, Is already showing considerable strength and enterprise, and the athletes in its ranks cannot say they are net encouraged.
