mm DAVE BUSY I SEASON BEFORE THEM
Play Five Games in Three Bays— Rain Stops Thursday's Opener With Evas.
By Ralpb H. White.
[J The Terre-irs have a busy season In front of them. They were scneduled to mix with the Evas in two games this afternoon with a second double-header booked for Sunday with Ft. Wayne.
And as Saturday is boy's day the pack is sure to battle to the finish 'n an effort to please Young America. Pretty strenuous program, don't you think?
Today's scheduled double bill was made necessary by a sky leak which started with some force yesterday when the Terre-irs were taking their half of the fourth. Previous to the storm neither team had tallied and the few bugs present had settled down 111 anticipat'on of witnessing a swell contest. Both Cantwell and Schultz, the former Indiana U. hurler, were pitching great ball, the former having been found for three hits in four Innings and the latter one hit in three i'rames.
The Terre-irs were robbed of a good opening in their half of the fourth. Tommy Sheehan, first up, worked thti college grad for a walk and with Kyle up prospects for a marker were a great 1'4-'V-
rteaLl
brighter than the sky. But the
I gent higher up turned on the water faucet at that stage and after a f6W minutes' wait Umps Harry eGisel called off the game owing to a combination of dark skies and rain.

Madden Will Hurl Sunday
Leonard Madden warmed up before Thursday's tilt and showed a lot of stuff.
The southpaw's bum finger is
much better and
It
is probable he will
hurl one of Sunday's two games.
Reds to Give Vet Hurlers a Tryout
Petle Fahrer, Dayton's crack flinger, is not going to Cincinnati at this time. It is likely the clever right-hander and possibly one or two other members of the Dayton club will be given trials by Manager Herzog In the near future but no changes will be made in the Dayton pitching staff until after the coming series with the Evas. This series with Evansville is an important one and unless the Soldiers have a big lead over the Knollers, when said serieB is completed all of the regulars will' be retained by Manager Nee. However, there is one chance for Fahrer to go up sooner than expected and that rests on the ability of the Dayton club to land a star pitcher of known Central league ability. If this hurler is secured one or more of the Vet pitchers may be given a big league trial in the very near future. At the present time, however, there is nothing doing and things will have to break ths right way before these trials are granted. Manager Nee is more than anxious to let all of his youngsters get a chance to better themselves, but he is also anxious to land that Central league pennant and will make no moves that will endanger the prospects of tne flag coming to Vet town.
Ten Days Clause Is fatal Objection
CHICAGO, July 17.—The presence of the ten days clause in Pitcher Johnson's contract with the Cincinnati Nationals was hfcld a "fatal objection" to the enforcement of the "negative covenant," by which the player agreed not to play for any other team, in the opinion of the appellate court handed down today. The opinion, as announced yesterday, reversed the ruling under which Judge Foell in the superior court enjoined Johnson from playing with the Kansas City Federals. "In the opinion of the majority of the court," the opinion reads in part, "the provisions of the contract by which the club, by giving notice, could terminate all liabilities undertaken by the contract, is a fatal objection to the right of the club to enforce by injunction the performans by Johnson of the negative covenant to to play or perform for any other than' the club."
Terre-irs Last in Base Stealing
In the first 76 games of the Central league season the Terre-irs stolj but 68 bases and rank last in stolen bases by clubs. The Vets are the leading sack snatchers with a total of 112 to their credit.
The official figures as given out by Presldent Louis Heilbroner are as follows:

The Terre-irs fared poorly during their recent invasion of the enem'es' territory, winning but four of ten games. The Reapers were trimmed in three of five games, but the pack lost three straight to the Evas and two out three to the Waynes.

MANAGER FOR A DAY. Frank J. Navln, owner of the Tigers, once acted as a manager for a day. He was secretary of the Detroit club at the time. One manager had been dismissed, and his successor had not arrived. So Mr. Navin went out and sat on the bench.
Old Jack Warner was the backstopping mainstay of the team at the time. He had been everywhere around the circuit except to Washington, which team, in those days, was the bottom of the chute through which declining stars slid to the bushes. He went to Washington the following season. On the day Mr. Navin appeared on the bench Jack was much "lit up," and kept away from the club official, fearing a fine if his condition was detected. On some pretext he had managed to have a recruit catcher assigned to duty, and spent the afternoon, rntil the ninth inning, backed up topohe grand stand, some distance from a Tiger bench.
In the last half of 3 ninth, with two out, two on, and De* 4t One run to the

bad, the recruit catcher came to bat. Mr. Navln ordered Warner to go out and wield the war club, unconscious of Jack's mental and physical haziness. Jack obeyed, getting to the plate in a fairly straight course. The opposing pitcher knew Warner's state, and laughingly chucked up a straight one without even a suspicion of speed on it. Jack lunged wildly. By some freak of fortune, his bat collided with the ball, and spun it over the third Backer's head for a legitimate two-bagger. Jack plunged for first base, but no one was paying attention to nim. All were watching the two runners soore, one of them from first base, that being the point on which the scorers deckled the size of the hit, for Jack never ventured past the initial corner, which he .lad reached with great difficulty. And Mr. Navin, firm in the belief that he had won the game by deep strategy, voted himself a great manager.—The Popular Magazine.
STRANGE, BUT TRUE. -1
A remarkable thing about the standings in the two older leagues Is that the St. Louis Browns, now in falxth position, are closer to the leadership of the American league race than the Cardinals are in the National and yet the Cards are in third position.
