INDIANA HARBOR. The game of ball yesterday between
Indiana Harbor and the Derby Colts of Chicago was pretty tame affair. The local boys outclassed their opponents so far that the game was uninteresting, except to convince the fans that the home management has secured some pitcher when they signed Croake. He is taot only a cracker jack pitcher, but he fields the position better by long. odd3 than any twirler ever seen on the Harbor grounds and bats like
a "fiend. The team as it stands now should hold their own with anything in this neck of the woods. The score yesterday was Indiana Harbor 8, Derby Colts 0. ... . ' J.

Hammond won its first Saturday afternoon game in a thrilling contest' with the Illinois Giants, a colored aggregation from Chicago on July 2d by a count of 4 to 3 and wpn the Sunday game by a score of 9 to 0, the gime being forfeited to the locals by Umpire White, after the most sensational rangle ever witnessed in the Hammond
park.
Smith pitched his first game for the
local club Saturday and proved to be effective in all pinches. His delivery
was perfect and he fielded his position
as good as any.hurler that has appeared on the local diamond this year.
The locals both out-hit and out-field
ed their opponents and Wagner's catch
ing was superb. Only one man tried to steal on the crafty backstop and al
though he beat the throw it was one of
those hard chances which nearly all
catchers fail to make good on.
The game with the All Chicago? on
Sunday ended in a spirited row. The count stood 7 to 3 in favor of the Chicago team in the last of the. fourth inning. The visitors were inclined to be
somewhat unruly during the entire
game or rather the first sacker and the
hackston were sunnlied with an extra
amount of lip. In the last part or tee
fourth inning the visiting catener made
two or three remarks regarding Um
pire White's decisions and on ineoc
casion which caused the disturbance,
the catcher called w hite names wmcn refused to be made public by the press.
Umpire White too what he thought
was a trine too mucn ana men warned the catcher that he would be put on
the bench i he continued to protest his decisions. Seagram, the catcher's name. '
called the umpire a number of vile
-names and tnen threatened to assault
him. White could not stand nc more and the two men were about to mix it
when both teams interfered. Had the. visiting catcher carried out his threat and the players refused to stop the fight, a man by the name of Seagram would more than likely have been taken out of the park a much wiser man. I After the players had quieted the raving catcher the Chicago players again took their positions on the diamond. White notified the manager of the Chicago team to put another man behind the willow, but the manager refused to put in a new man. Seagram was sent back to finish the gam. Umpire White evidently knew who the executive was and forfeited the game to Hammond. The witnesses at once agreed with the umpire and the executive was applauded by all the spectators. Ra(n checks were handed to each one who attended the game, which will entitle then"to free admission to next Sunday's game, j

James J. Jeffries of California, win-
ner or tweniy-iwo ciiiiiiiinunmv,
man who never was brought to his knees before by a blow, has passed into historv as a broken idol. He met utter
defeat at the hands of the black cham Dion.
While Jeffries was not actuauy
fniintl out. he was saved only from
this crowning shame by his friends pleading with Johnson not to hit his fallen man again, and the towel was brought Into the ring from his corner. At the end of the fifteenth round Referee Tex Rickard raised the black arm, and the fight was decided. Jeffries was dragged to his corner bleeding from nose and mouth and a dozen cuts on the face. He had a black, closed eye, and swollen features and he held his head In his hands, dazed and incoherent. Johnson walked out of the ring without a mark on his body except a ulisht cut on his Hp, which was the opening of a wound received In training. Jeff Conldnt Come Back. Ring experts agree that it was not even a championship fight. Jeffries had a chance in the second round, perhaps, but after the sixth It was plain that he was weakened and outclassed in every point, and after the eleventh round It was hopeless. It was the greatest demonstration the ring has ever seen of the failure of
a fighter to "come back" after years of retirement. The youth and science of the black man made Jeffries look like a green man. The great Jeffries was like a log. The reviled Johnson was like a black panther, beautiful in his
alertness and defensive tactics. Jeffries fought by instinct, it seem
ed, showing his gameness and great
fighting heart in every round, but he
was only the shell of his old self. The old power to take a terrible beating and bore until he landed the knockout
blow was gone.
After the third round Johnson treat
ed his opponent almost as a Joke. He smiled and blocked playfully, warding off the bearlike rushes of Jeffries with a marvelous science, now tucking a blow under his arm,, again plucking it out of the air as a man stops a baseball. Flsrht AVbji On the .Square. Out of the sea of opinions and arguments that bolstered up this fight and made it the talk of the world, three pinnacles of fact have been cast up: The fight was on the square. Of that there was no doubt after the first round There was no evidence or hint of the famous "yellow streak" on the part of Johnson. Johnson proved himself so absolutely Jeffries' master that experts such as W. Corbett, the Australian sporting writer and ring expert, declared that Tommy Burns had put up a better fight against Johnson and that the black man was only playing with the other man. The end was swift and terrible. It
looked as though Johnson had been
holding himself under cover all the rest
of the time, and now that he had measured Jeffries in all his weakness he had
determined to stop it quickly.
Jeffries had lost the power of self
i defense.. A series of right and left
uppercuta delivered at will sent him staggering to the ropes. He turned
and fought back by instinct, as though he was dying hard. I Only a Few Fast Round. "With the exception of a few fast rounds the fight was tame. Jeffries did not have the power In his punch to hurt' Johnson after he had received blow after blow on the Jaw and his vital power was gone. But even before this stage came, Jeffries could not reach the black. The blows, almost all of them.
landed without speed. It was like hitting a punching bag. The Jeffries crouch was in evidence at all times, but during most of the fight Jeffries founght standing straight and working with something of his old aggressiveness. The fiftenth round started with a clinch after Jeffries had failed to land
on the body. Johnson then tore loose
and before the spectators were prepared for the finish he had sent Jeffries down with lightning like blows with' left and right to Jaw. Jeffries reeled and fell halfway through the ropes on the west side of the ring. Those near Mm saw that he had lost his sense of j his surroundings and that the faces at ! the" ringside were a blur to him. His! time had come. He was feeling what he had caused others to feel In the days of his youth and power. Ready For Knockout Blow. Johnson came over to the spot and
stood poised over his adversary, his body ready for a left hook If Jeffries regained his feet. Corbett, who twice had gone down before Jeffries' blows and who had stood in Jeffries corner during this fight telling Johnson what a fool he
was and how he was In for the greatest
beating of his life, now ran forward with outstretched arms, crying: "O, go back; don't hit him." Jeffries painfully raised himself to his feet. His jaws had dropped, his eyeswere nearly shut, and his face was covered with blood. "With trembling legs and yielding arms he tried to put up a defense, but he could not stop a terrific right smash in the jaw, followed by two left hooks. He went down again. Jeffries' physician and other friends jumped into the ring. Plead For "Old Fellow." "Stop it," they cried. "Don't put the old fellow out." Sam Berger, Jeffries' manager, ran along the ring, calling to Bob Armstrong. "Bring that towel you know what I mean don't let him get hit." From Johnson's corner his seconds were calling to him to quit. Then the
rereree stopped the timekeeper, and It1 was all over. j Soothing liquids were applied to the fallen champion's bruised face, but his heart was something that could not be i
