HE IS ATTRACTING Will Hammond baseball enthusiasts do what Crown Point did when the H. A. A. baseball team leaves for the county seat next Sunday? That is the question that is puzzling the manage-' ment of the Hammond Stock company. which has done so much to make Hammond one of the leaders among the baseball nines of the region.. The managers of the Hammond nine are doing everything in their power to send a large crowd of rooters to Crown Point next Sunday." They have already secured a special train on the Erie which will leave Hammond at 1 p. m. Sunday for Crown Point and will leave Crown Point for Hammond a 6:30 p. m. Tickets Placed on Sale. Tickets have been placed on sale at Cox & Co.'s store and at Milllken's. These tickets can be secured for sixty cents, which will entitle the holder to a round trip ride. Crown Point brought nearly five hundred people along with their team to witness the first contest between Hammond and Crown Point. The game next Sunday is even more important than the first contest, and it Is with this fact In view that Hammond will try and take a much larger crowd to Crown Point. At least ten automobiles will leave Hammond for Crown Point, and every loyal baseball fan is preparing to go to the county seat next Sunday. The teams are in the best of condition and. as was demonstrated in the last con test they are evenly matched and an other close contest is anticipated. BOXING DEAD IHS. SAYS JACK JOHNSON Declares His Next Fight u Will 06 Staged 111 England or Australia. America has seen Johnson in the last of his championship fights It will be permitted to witness. This was made plain by the champion yesterday, who announced that his next defense of the title would take place either in Eng land or Australia. "Fighting is dead In this country," said Johnson. "The game has been killed here Just as horse racing was ruined. There has been too much fighting done among the promoters fighting among the promoters and too much shady work done in the ring. When I fight again in a championship bout it will be either in Bneland or Australia. I may consent to appear In an exhibition In this country, but there Is no chance of waging a long battle here. As I have said before, I will not fight for a year." The champion spent yesterday tun ing up his racing car. This is the machine out of which he has been able to get but 93 out of the guaranteed 100 miles an hour. He says he Is going to Elgin today to get that other seven miles, despite the threat of the Motor club officers to stop him with a shotgun if necessary. GUN TO STOP JACK JOHNSON Elgin, 111., Aug. 9. "Jack Johnson will not speed over the Elgin course today, nor will any one else until preliminaries for the races begin. I will stop his attempt with a shotgun if necessary." In these words Charles P. Root of the Chicago Motor club, who is here directing preparations for the Elgin stock chassis races, put a damper on the ambitions of the champion to "burn up" the Elgin roadway and set a record. Notices have been posted notify ing auto drivers that only twenty miles an hour will be allowed. Deputy sherlqs will guard the course tomorrow and stop any reckless speeding by the colored pugilist. Johnson has announced that he will be here this afternoon to set a Vecord for the course. Any attempt by Johnson to enter the race events will be 'resented by Elgin residents. GANS FIGHTS DEATH. Baltimore, Md., Aug. 9. Joe Gans was near death all day yesterday and last night, but fought for his life with temporary success. It was not expected that he,, would be alive this morning.

Joe Jackson of the New Orleans team is the first player In the country to make safe hits this season. Connie Mack had Joe a couple of days last seabut, but he was seized with stagee fright and beat it back to his aCroIina farm. It is said that Cleveland has S coDsed the Southern star.

' Probably the earl of Euston didn't see anything strange or unpleasant about it, but if be didn't he was In a small minority. No one expected much of the Sox when Walter Johnson was announced as the pitcher, but Walter didn't have a chance to be as effective as usual. And It wasn't his fault, either. Mr. McAleer didn't dare allow John Henry to attempt to catch -him, so he put Beckendorf back of the bat. Beck's hands are In a bunged up state these days. He worked pretty well when Walter was shoving them through with the speed of an ordinary pitcher, but when the boy' from Idaho used all his steam Beck couldn't hold on. There fore, Walter had to slack up a bit. which was Just as well for our side. Inasmuch as It was a dark day. RAH!

"All off, two games tomorrow," was the depressing Information wafted over the telephone wire from the Phillies' ball park to Cub headquarters shortly after noon yesterday, thereby turning an already gloomy day a blacker hue. If was all caused by a rain storm which backed up the Delaware river under cover of night and started bom barding the city before dawn, keeping It up with consistent intermittency all day long. There wasn't a chance to stir out of the hotel unless Incased In goloshes, and the visible supply of cur rency has been congested so closely Into a few hands that the P. G. lan guished for lack of competitors. Only two rays of light filtered Into the corridors of the club's Inn. One of those was the information that J.

If some of my critics who have been roasting me In the paper would worK as nara ana honestly as I do they would find out the real facts con nected with the recenttrouble on the team and would not be misguiding the public.

DICK ARNST, WORLD'S CHAMPION SCULLER, WHO WILL DEFEND HIS TITLE AGAINST BARRY. London, Aug. . The on big sporting topic here Is the coming race' between Ernest Barry, England's greatest sculler, and Dick Arnst, the New Zealander. holder of the world's title, to be held on the Zambesi river. South Africa, Aug. 18. The race is for a purse of $3,000. subscribed by African sportsmen. According to South African experts, Arnst is the greatest sculler that ever sat in a boat, and they look to him to defeat Barry easily. On the other hand, there are many who claim that Barry will wrest the title from Arnst. In talking about the coming race an expert said recently: "There Is no doubt that owing to his enormous strength Arnst can propel a boat at a great pace. But this is no proof that he can stay. As a cyclist it was known that he could stay all day and night and he might do so as a sculler, but if Barry takes him beyond his pace in the last mile he will be a beaten man. And why? Because Barry Is a waterman to his finger tips. As a sculler, quite apart from any other exercise, he is in a class by himself. He knows all the finesse of the game. He Is as much at hope in choppy water as he Is in smooth." All experts here who have seen Barry at work, agree that he is the greatest sculler seen on the Thames since Hanlon's palmy days. '
