The one run that saved Jones and his followers from a shutout was a gift on the part of the locals. Jesse Tannehill, the veteran southpaw who had been relegated to the has-been class, was the stumbling block that the Windy City men ran up against today, and he demonstrated to the fullest satisfaction of the Sox that he was far from being a dead one by letting them down with a stingy quartet of hits that were scattered through as many innings.

Seme style to those understudies. They showed the stuff they're made of by gathering ten of the eleven hits off Bell and Holmes, the two dingers used by Brooklyn. Of the regular whose legs and hands were sound enough to permit them to play Tinker was the only one to get a hit. and that was a palpable scratch. Each of the five subs cracked out two hits, Hofman being the "king pin, with a double and a clean home run. MISCELLANEOUS BALL GAMES. ' At Centralia. 111. White Sox. 1; Mt.

It doesn't look as promising today for a return fight between Nelson and Gans as it did yesterday for Tex Rickard, the Ne vada promoter, is credited with cabling to Tommv Burns and Jack Johnson to get them for a contest on Iibor day either in Frisco or Nevada. Ben Selig still things Gans deserves $10,000 if Nelson is to get $25,000. and there the matter rests. Nelson is anxi ous to tight as the money looks good to him and he dislikes vaudeville show which have offered him gaudy induce ments. If Rickard can match Tommy Burns and Jack Johnson, he will drop Nelson and Gans and let some local promoter arrange with the lightweights. What Rickard wants is an attraction that will draw the biggest, house, anil he thinks the heavy-weights will attract this.
