'twjlof Wo nre assuming that such
ii, (i, ease, for ho now Is billed as ft
forfner follower of tlto briny deep, or tho
rarlw? main or whatever It Is. and appears
1 B-v before us as Sailor
.Taolt Carroll, tho boxer.
Tho cx-nble seaman
learned how to dive
while tho Rood ship
skimmed through tho
sad sea waves and
ofttlmes practices his
deep-sea stunts while,
on land. Ho Is an ex
cellent diver.
Sailor Jack took It
upon himself to engage
In nstlcufTs with ono
Jim Barry, a young
ster who onco was on
tho bill with Jim
Corbett when ho (Cor
bett) was champion.

,. W. MAXWELTj
'.. i mnliired In tho wilds of Chicago
tnd shipped eastward to escape tho heat,
fiillor Jack was lured from his nlco cool
retreat In Cincinnati nnd shipped In tho
'lime direction. Thoy met in Bridgeport.
Conn., last Saturday afternoon, nnd tho
battle thoy put up mado Gettysburg, Ver
dun and that scrap at Przemysl look llko
a lot- of hokum.
Bout Was Too Long
The bout was scheduled for IB rounds,
fit that was entirely too long. At the
end of the ninth session, a bravo policeman
tailed a halt becauso ho feared Sailor
Jack would begin diving and hurt his
Vd. It's1 a. dllllcult trick to make a good
dive on a hardwood floor. In fact, wo
might go so far as to say It can't bo done.
Anyway, tho sailor finished second and now
hls.nun&gcr la sad and morose.
. It Is necessary to Introduce the manager
Into this sketch, as It Is his sadness and
moroseness that caused this story to bo
written Jt la n, story of frenzied finance
In Its most fronzted Btato and at tho end
there Is a swell moral. Keop your seats
until you got tho moral.
, Joe Devlr Is the manager and much
maligned hqro, Ho strolled Into our office
this morning wearing a worried look the
took of ono who has suffered excessively
from f somo deep wrong. "Wo know ho, had
som'ethlng on Ills chest and waltod patiently
until ho unburdened himself.
Here'4 the Snd Story
"Now you know I never dono nothln' to
noBody, Chief," ho began, "but there Is ono
Buy what Is coin' to get a bust In the Jaw
's soon as Isco him. I moan th' guy what
put a plcco In th' New York paper sayln'
Jack Carroll was knocked out by Jim Barry
In Bridgeport las' Saturday. There ain't
no truth In It a-tall. Chief, bo don't you fait
fer It. Carroll wasn't knocked out. Th'
bout was stopped In tho ninth round when
Carroll was goln good. They didn't havo
no right ta stop th' bout. Carroll wouldda
stopped him suro."
At this Juncturo Nick Hayes found tho
door open and took advantngo of It. Ho
trolled up to the desk, casta pitying glanco
at tho downcast Dovir, then stuck around
to get somo new stuff.
"I didn't got no fair deal n-tall," con
tinued Devlr, Ignoring tho vlHltor, "and I
know they handed mo a. awful raspberry.
Vfe didn't havo no regular ring nnd didn't
hao no regular place for tho lite. Me an'
Jack was walking along th' shora of th'
river, er lake.what Is near Bridgeport Say,
Chief, what lake Is It? I fcrget th' name."
"It was Lako Krle, yuh sap," kindly an
swered Hayes.
Stay Near Lake
"Well, anyway, me an' Jack was walkln'
along th' shore of Lnko Erie," resumed tho
manager, still Ignoring his Informant, "an
I says to Jack, 'It's a swell day,' and Jack
comes right back at me and says 'yes.'
Then wo talked a lot Ilka that when a
wagon drove up an' I seen that It was
loaded with them foldln' camp chairs. I
goes up to th' driver and says 'whaydyo got
them chairs fer?" nnd he says, Thoy are fer
W nic.'
'This was awful nows ta mo. Chief, be
cause I had all arrangements made ta tlto
In a regular place vhcre they had real
seats and everything. Then I gets a swell
Idea and I sayH ta Jack, 'If they hold th'
flte here, we might as well stay here,' and
Jack Bays 'yes.'
"Then we watted aroun' an' looked at
th' lake an' saw th' boats an' everything.
Jack was klnda homesick and he said he
wlsht he was lookln' at th' sea becauso he
likes ta bo near salt water. TVe stuck
aroun' until some guy come up and says
'It's time fer th' flte,' nnd me an" Jack was
led to a dressln' room.
'Then they Bllpped us th' raspberry, chief,
ana nonest, it was terrible. Do yuh ynow
where they made us flte? In a dance hall,
what had waxed doors and awful slippery.
They didn't .have no ropes, but they
Bpnmciea some sawdust on th; floor an"
made a square 12 feet on each side- an'
put th' seats right up close. Can yuh
beat that?
"Then they get a referee and he was a
swell referee, but he only stayed one round.
Ho gave Jack all th' Ymxt nt it. hut h
couldn't stay becauso he looked at th' rear
or in pavilion an' saw some guys standln'
i there anr he had ta leave ta tend bar. Then
they get a bum In there and thats why Jack

ON THE STARTLING STORY OF SAILOR JACK CARROL
MAXWELL
I m gonna at yuh a pusional question :
How much money was In th house?"
"They wns $580 In th' house." said Devlr.
"Swell house, that was. Carroll Is n lino
drawing card, even on th' shores a' I.nko
Erie at Bridgeport. Yuh neer had no
champ what could draw so much monoy."
"Aw, put that stuff on Ice an' bring mo
th' Ice," retorted IWck, contemptuously. "I
mnnnged (Iters before yuh over heard of
that ham .Sailor. I'm a wise guy, I am.
How much sugar did yur get outta th'
flto?"
"Now hero Is where I get another rasp
berry, chief," walled Devlr, ns ho turned
his back on his questioner. "They only
slips mo 40 bucks. Think nf It! Only 40
bucks ! I told th' gont with th' money that
It wasn't enough, fo ho counts out nickels
an' dimes nn' fills my hands with 'cm an'

got? Two bucks more. That's all. Juat
two bucks, makln' a grand total a 42 Iron
men fer th' day's work I I'm goln' to get
that guy and punch him on th' chin. He
can't put nothln' llko that over on me, ,110
can't
Jack Is Insulted
"Then thoy was Insultln' tn Jack, fer
when ho gets through ho looks aroun' and
says 'whero Is th' shower bath,' und somo
wiso gink says, 'go Jump In th' 'lake.' Thnt
alnt no Jclnd 'a treatment fer a guy what
was robbed outta a flte. Jack couldnt
Jump 'cause he was BO feet from th' water
and ho .had ta go without no shower. An'
they eay that they aro kind to visitors In
Conncctloutl"
"Hey, Ilssenl" again Interrupted Nick
Hayes. "Do yuh mean ta stnn' there nn'
tell me that ;you only got 42 bucks fer th'
flto? You'ro a awful boob, you aro. Don't
yuh know nothln'? Yuh Jus' stood there
an' let 'era pay yuh off In Connecticut
money, yuh did. Dont know what Connec
ticut money Ib? Yuh oughtta know. Its
'much obliged.' Yuh got that wit" yer 12
bucks, didn't yuh? Did yuh make any
money on th' trip?"
"Moneyl" shrieked Devlr. "Dont Stan'
thero an' talk money ta mel I lost money
on th' trip! I only got 42 bucks an' the ex
penses was I42.3SI I'm 35 cents out, nn'
all my time nn' everything. Any wonder
I'm soro? An' they stopped tho flto an'
robbed my champion. That alnt Justice.
He's Gonna Write
"I'm gonna wrlto ta that guy what run tho
show nnd tell him what I think 'a him.
He'n gonna know a few things, ho Js."
"Yer takln a awful chanst." said Nick.
"Suppose th' guy can't read?"
"Oh, he's a wlso guy nil right," replied
tho manager. "Ho lsln rood an" everything.
An' If ho don't unswer, I'm goln' ta biff
him on th' chin."
"Yor a tough guy ain't yuh?" Bald Nick.
"Yer so tough that yuh should let Sailor
Jack be th' manager and you do th' fltln'.
Then they won't stop th' Ilto In tho ninth
roun'. They'll stop It In the foist."
"Yuh ain't such a wlso person n-tall,
Nick," retorted the crestfallen manager.
"Yuh don't know everything In th world,
so I'm goln' ta slip yuh somo good dope
what has n moral with It. Hero It Is:
"Don't never hao nothln' ta do With no r
hicks. Thoy nln't no slobs what wo think

THn announcement thftt wnlvors havo

the vctcrnn pitcher of the Pittsburgh Na

surprise among local fans today, as It was
apparent when he faced tho Phillies last
week that this famous hurler was nbout

Adams Is one of the few recruit pitchers
who was able to stand tho strain of n
world's scries In his first season tn the
major league:, nnd his work In 1909 stands
out ns one of the most remarkable pitch
ing feats In the history of modern base
ball. Unknown, Adams jumped In ns tho maln
ntay of Pittsburgh and succeeded In win
ning three games from Detroit In six ilayn,
Including the final game, which decided tho
chnmplonshlp. Adams pitched wonderful
ball nnd won on his merits, completely mas
tering the slugging Tigers
Adams was born nt Tipton, Ind on May
18, 1883, and began his professional base
ball career with the Parsons team of tho
Mlssnuri-Knnsas League In 190S. Ills work
attracted the attention of the St. I.ouls
National League team, which purchased
htm nt the end of the season, After a brief
trlnl he was released to Denver.
Adams remained with Denver for two
rensons, and In 1907 won 18 consecutlvo
victories, which at that time equaled the
minor-league record, This sensational
string of victories caused the Pittsburgh
club to purchaso him. He wns ncnt to

Japanese Expert
WASHBURN ELIMINATED
BOSTON, Aug. 1. TVllltam M. Johnston,
of San Francisco, the national champion,
yesterday defeated W. M. "Washburn, of
New York, Iri the upper half of the semi
finals for the Longwood tonnls bowl on the
courts of the Longwood Cricket Club, 8-6,
6-4, E-7, 6-4.
In the lower half of the draw J. J. Arm
strong, of Philadelphia, defeated Ichiya,
Kumagae, tho Japanese champion, 6-8,
7-5, 7-6.
Doth matches were played In the hottest
weather of the year, and nil the players ex
cept Washburn became thoroughly ex
hausted. Washburn played a- splendid back-court
game, nnd his deep drives to tha far cor
rers had Johnston on the run. At the net
the champion was able to utlllzo his deadly
overhead smashes, and It was the opinion of
the experts that his hitting wan even harder
than that of Maurice E. McLoughlln.
Tho Armstrong-Kumagae match waa
purely a back-court affair. It was expected
that Kumagae would wear down the Phlla
delphtan, but It was the Japanese champion
who wilted. In the second set ho nearly col
lnpsed after Armstrong had kept him run
ning from one side of the court to the other,
lie was within one point of winning the
third set when his American opponent ral
lied, allowing Kumagae only threo point
In the last two games.
Tho final match for the New England
Junior championship wns won by Charles
S. Garland, of Pittsburgh, the Yale Inter
scholastic champion. He defeated Arthur
Favrcau, of tho Longwood Cricket Club,
C-0, 6-1, and thereby earned the right to
represent tho East In the Junior' sectional
championship to bo held in Now Tork next
month.
