' Good ones In his day nnd Just dropped out of sight lr the world of sport.
A year ago he couldn't draw a cood-slzcd house with .less Wlllard and
' was slated to join the "has bcetis." lie evidently had urn his best das s.
but Tommy refused to admit It. Ho was twenty-seven years old then
and thought ho had a few sood years left In his system. lie wanted to
" "como hack."
f With eleven years of experience behind him, Carey started from the
' bottom again, llo boxed In the preliminaries, at the Cambria and soon
worked his way to tho semlwind-up. lie continued to make pood and It
' wn decided to try him out with Charley lioyle In the star bout. Carey
' won nnd then caine a Ions string of victories. Johnny Nelson, llatiy
Boyle, Johnny Clinton nr.-l Young Terry MrCSovern were defeated, and
, now ho Is looking for bigger same, lfo is willing to meet Leonard, Cllne,

lATTl-.tt how often Mannpcr
olio never hcarx any harsh words
him. lluggsy always tries to Rive his men a square deal and stands for
moro than any other manager. One of his latest stunts, told hy Joe
Vila, follows:
"Ourlns tho absence of Charley Ilorzog from the (Hants last fall.
Arthur Fletcher was appointed actliiR captain. Fletcher not only tilled
that position capably, but ho placd the name of his life at shortstop.
Nobody appreciated Fletcher's work more than Manager McGraw. who
recently named him as the regular captain of tho team. When the world's
scries ended McCJraw sent for Fletcher and surprl-cd the l.iticr with a
present of J70U. It Is said on excellent authority that the money came out
of McGraw's pocket and wns not charged up to the New York club. In
other words, Fletcher'recelvcd almost us much money ai McClraw deducted
from Herzog's salary for disobeying orders. Fletcher's contract for this
year calls for a substantial increase In salary, together with an extra sum
for his duties as captain."
Rube Shatter, of the A's, Had SOME Experiences
THE day of the eccentric baseball player Is passing. The Itube Wnddells
nnd Hugs Jlaymonds no longer entertain the public and the national
game Is getting more and more like a business proposition. However, once
In n. while a real character uppcars and his experiences add to tho Joy of
life. Uubo Hchauer, tho other twirlcr of the A's, still is with us. ami he
ajways can lie depended .upon to pull the eccentric stuff when times are
dull. IVo remember one day last year when the A's were playing Chicago.
lUibo was In tho Uox and having a hard time of it. Hatter after batter
was soaking tho pill all over the lot and Uubo was talking to himself and
calling himself names. Hchauer nlways does this when things are breaking
against him.
Near tho end of the game Stuffy .Mclnnls inn over to the pitcher's box
and consulted with Itube.
"Watch Collins," whispered Stuffy. "Give him a low curve on tho out
side and he v'on't l.o able to touch It." Pchaucr nodded his head and re
sumed his labors.
The flrst man up was handed a low curve mi the outside and he busted
tho ball on the nose for a .triple to right, stchntier was suic.
"Hey, Stuffy," he yelled, "cut out that bum dope. 1 guvo Kddlo Collins
a low one on the outside and look what he did to it!"
"You must be dead from the shoulders up," scornfully replied Melnnl.
"That wasn't Collins. Tho guy who mado tho triple was McMullln."
Rl
tlTun never knows whom he Is
the Giants he was ordered to
came to bat. Tho game went along for six innings and New York
was on the short end of tho scire. McGraw was sore and after
giving Uube a call-down asked him what was the matter.
"KverythliiK Is all right," replied Uube, "but I can't iccosulzo
that guy Luderus."
Was a Member of the Famous "Schush lirolhcrs"
S1
ID MEIICEK, the New York scribe,
Schauer. When Itube was with the
The "Schtish Brothers" warmed the bench for two years and each professed
a great contempt for the other's ability. I-ate In the season of 1910 Schauer
was released to Louluvllle. About that time Schupp started the winning
ptrcak that landed him as leader of tho Nutlona League, pitchers that year.
Every time he won a game he sent a clipping to Schauer.
Last spring Schauer got off to a good start with tho Athletics and
every time he .won a game he saw that Schupp received a clipping. One
day tho New York southpaw read an account of a game where Schauer was
belted for twenty-two hits. Itube did not report that catastrophe to Schupp,
but tho latter mailed an account of it to his old rival.
Schauer came Into tho National League with as much speed ns Alex
j ider, but right there the resemblance ceased. Charley Dooin thought he
saw great possibilities In McGraw's young right-hander, but while Uubo
cotiid warm up In great atylo ho ulways had trouble with his control when
runners were on bases. lo wild-pitched moro runners homo from third
base tliaji any youngster McGraw ever trained.
SCHAUEIl'S great fault was lack of concentration. He never
setmed tii remember what tho different batters; could hit. Indeed,
lie did not even remember the faces of men who batted against
hint many times.
He Wasn't Acquainted with Tyrus Cobb
rnwO years ago tho Giants Jumped Into
; tho Detroit Tigers. They were leading by n run when Schauer entered
r '" ther box In tho sixth Inning., Ty Cobb came up In that round, but Schauer
djd. nut rccognlzo him. Ho made Cobb go after a bad ball nnd Tyrus
fdulcd out.
Tho xcoro was. unchanged when Cobb led off In tlio ninth. This time
Uughcy Jennings went out on the coaching lines and duly advertised Cobb's
V appcaVanec. Schauer couldn't get a bull near tho plato and Ty walked.
. "I'm going to steal second, jou big boob," shouted Ty, nnd ho did. Jly
. that tlnio Rube was ud a mile. Ho cut loose n wild pitch nnd Cobb landed on
third. Another wild pitch and ho scored
, and tho Giants lost. It was not long afterward that McGraw shipped
'tfejirtucr to Louisville, After two year sho was convinced that Hubo was a
. MAut nlfclipi" flnlll the nprl down.
' 'During; his term with the Giants Hchauer was a most self-satisfied ln
dividual and some of his frisky teammates used to play on his vanity with
Wttbelng suspected of kidding. They were nlways writing him notes and

Pitt-
111: appeal of Fred Toney, tho star
pitcher of the t'liicimiatl Iteds)
aealnst tho ruling of his local board
placing him in tlio first class of tho se
lective draft, Ins been denied by the dis
trict board,
Federal chaises of having made false
affidavits on his dependency claims be
fore the local board are now printing
aealnst the Cincinnati National League
pitcher, which will be. heard at the March
session of the Grand Jury. These
chaiBts and his mibsequent arrest about
tho middle of Jlrcembei wcro niadii
after ho had appealed from tho rtillns
of his local board, which disallowed his
dependency claim for exemption and
put him in first class,
Toney, after his arrest, denied his
statement was false and declared he is
rsady to bo to war If shown how those
dependent upon him would bo taken
care "of.
The refusal of the appeal board to
favorably consider thn Toney case comes
as a surprise In view of teccnt leports
that tho pitcher had sustained his con
tentions as to dependencies and that It
was likely that not only would ho be
relieved of the charco. pf attempting to
evade tho draft but would cct a clean
bill of exemption.
Toney claims were liascd upon the
ground that ho was heavily hmdened
wjth dependencies, including a wife- and
buy, liu Invalid brother and an aged
tcpfather. Ho never had djclarcd
an unwillingness to nccep ncrvlce nnd
stated that he was ready to go any time

was dlsiiiinllllcd on a foul after he hail
takm a tenlble lacing. ,
It Is always bettr to boost than to
Knock, but this ofTilr. If It Is staged,
should not iiiniisc the lan to a statu of
frenzy. Fulton has proxecl on two oc
casions that he tan trim Wclncrt In less
than tluee tnutuK Followers of boxing
1 know this, and It the bout goes according
' in the dope, i hurley will lilt the mat
again, if It lasts the limit. cciy one
will believe that something was wrong.
It Is a poor mnttli and should not be
i put on.
Clubs Should Dictate
The olympla Club stands out as one
of the besi In the country at the present
time, lloxing Is dead In New Yolk, the
game Is not so good In Boston, where
' It, Is necessary to box twclw loiinds to
a decision, nnd In Ilalthnoie the fighters
ale ii (inlieil lo go fifteen rounds. The
purses arc larger bile, ibe bouts arc
I shorter and It should not be at all dllll-
, cult to sign up the stars. Instead of the
; matchmaker asking the boxers to pcr-
' foi in. the liosi-rs should lie begging the
matchmakers for a tha nee to appear In
nno of the slmws. Tne clubs should
do tlio dictating and ai range tlio shows
fm. Hie l.enellt of the .iiectiitois not the
temperamental topnolchers.
No doubt Fulton Is anxious to box i
Wclncrt. because be knows he can beat ,
him. Charley wants tho inatcii nccaust
he needs the money and he cannot
be blamed for that. But tbeie ate othcr
heavvwclglits who could gle Ficdwaul
- ,. i.ii,- l.itile. .Ihn Coffey and Hartley
j Madden may be the biggest bums In the
woild, but they never nave mei limuu
and could do better than Welncri.
Then there Is a joung man out In i
Chicago who is athlng for a chance to I
box the big plasleier, .lack Dempsey
Is out there looking for matches and I
Is said lo be a tough customer. Uu't on i
the coast he beat Call Monls and llmi
lioat Smith and last Friday night
knocked out Homer Stnltli in tne nisi
round at Haclne. Why not give Dempt
sey "a chance at Fulton? Wouldn't It be
a 'belter match and wouldn't the spec
ntors get a better nin for their money?
It's not too late to make a switch.

the close of one of the most brilliant
enicers In American open golf. He
was pcrtinp the greatest Ameilcan pro
fefslonal. At least no other can boast
his four national open championships
and a llko number of western opens, and
then- was a famous array of talent
against him In those dajs when tho
gient Mcotili and Bngllsh professionals
were striving to outdo each other in
the American classics. The open chain
iioiih.ps of those days meant more
than the acclaimed honors of Its cnun

When Scots AVcrc Kings
From the geneial introduction of the
game In this country down to Bill! 1ien
the native-born professionals came Into
notice, there was a big iniin or for
eign professionals. In early Scottish
dajs tlieie has been a great rivalry be
tawceu the Smiths of Carnoustie and
the Andersons and Campbells, and out
of tills ilvalry was born Anderson's
.itiength.
Although, much lo my regret. L had
hardly nn.v personal contact with Win.
t nm glad to have seen him play. I
have seen those mastcrlj- lions go close
to tho bole from varying distances and
positions, I bavo seen him essay, with
out the wink of an eye, the most peril
ous things, when a slip meant a great
disaster. Ills wooden phots were very
good. Tho Amlersun grip was rather
famous, being characterized by a pecul
iar locking of the hands. Oiilmct's grip
Is vhtually the same.
Some jerj- good players have a strictly
local game, but his championships were
won In all pans of the country.

Fully two-thirds of the bet athletes

BASKETBALL LEAGUES

For the first time lu many weeks,
local basketball fans will bo without
their usual Monday night attractions.
The Garfield fuel edict which went Into
operation last week didn't affect the
American and Northwest circuits, but
a new ruling compels tho two organ
izations to it-main Inactive tonight.
Tho American Leaguo held a meeting
yesterday and tho magnates mado a
nuk-k chango In tho playing nights.
Hereafter tho weekly contests will be
staged on Wednesday and Friday eve
nings nt Traymore Hall. If the fuel
order undergoes another change before
the season Is over tho original nights
will bo used again.
The Northwest Church circuit, which
has been holding Its championship con
tests' on Monday nnd Tuesday, will now
opeiate on Tuesday nnd Friday nights.
The Industrial organisation Is not af
fected by tho fuel edict. (
Ut. Columba will have' Its filial test
na Friday night when It meets the
strong Hvncock tiulnlct. The Saints lost
their first gamo of the season to Ulrnrd,
but slnco that tlnio h.tvp won eight
