Brooklyn, N. Y., Aug. 18. The Cubs
wound up their long eastern trip yesterday by getting an even break' with
the Infants in a double headed battle which gave Chance's men an even break on the four scrap series here. Brooklyn won the first game, 7 to 5, batting both Overall and Mclntire hard.
King Cole came back and pitched a brilliant victory over Rucker, giving
the Cubs the second game, 2 to 0.
Cole really pitched a no hit game
against the Infants( but was robbed
of the glory of performing that famous
feat while In his first season by an
accident
In the third inning Rucker raised a
little fly back of short. It was easy enough, but Tinker tripped and fell just as he got under the ball, which
came down safe. No one knew then how provoking the accident would
prove, but It became a mark for all kinds of profanity later on. Cole was wild at times and issued passes enough
to get himself into several holes, but
fine fielding behind him always pulled him out. Tinker once came to the
king's rescue with a spectacular double play unassisted. It cut off two Brooklyn runs.

night ready to open their final campaign in the east this afternoon. The journey was a tedious affair, and if it hadn't been for. the beauties of the Lehigh valley scenery those not busy In the poker or cribbage game would have perished of ennui, a word supplied by Freddie Parent. The New York Highlanders deserted us at Buffalo Jyesterday morning. Mr. Walsh promised to beat them next time he faced them and said he would be at his best in New York next week. The prominent features of Wllkesbarre were pointed out by Edward when a stop was made there. His majesty, the king of the spit balllsts, seemed to feel much better, and he may be able to work before the club leaves Philly.

New York. Aug. 18. After laboring nearly all summer the football rules committee yesterday made public the code which is to govern the game during the season of 1910. t Changes adopted are- revolutionary in character and calculated to minimize greatly the danger of fatal "accidents existing under the old rules. For one thing, the time of play is divided Into four periods of fifteen minutes each instead of the traditional two halves of thirty-five minutes each. The usual intermission of fifteen minutes is maintained between the second and third period, but an intermission
of three minutes only is allowed be
tween the first and second and third and fourth periods.
During this short . intermission no player will be allowed to leave the field nor will any one be permitted to came on the field" save only" the individual who looks after, the physical condition of the flayers. ; At the beginning of the second and
fourth periods the teams change
DOOR TO FIGHTERS
Acting Mayor Proposes id Put on the "Lid." ' i New York, Aug. 18. TheVe will bol no prize fighting In New York If Act ing Mayor Mitchell can prevent thenu This is his statement. . While his action in keeping Al Kautman and Bill Lang out of the ring at the Fairmont Athletic club was not intended as the beginning of a crusade against boxing.
(Mr. Mitchell announced that it was his determination to . strictly enforce tha law against professional pugllism.- - After- an all- day investigation tha mystery surrounding the identity of three men who occupied a room opposite the club and watched the proceedings was cleared up. It was reported that the acting mayor was in the party and went there to see how the police carried out orders. Mark A. Leiischer explained at the city hall that wit htwo friends he had rented the room for (1 after learning that the police were about to stop the fight. He said he wanted to have a good view of the doings in the street. The-acting mayor . said that the Kaufman-Lang bout was stopped and other bouts given without police interruption because the heavyweight match was-advertised as a prize fight
1 and- that It was the general under
standing that . the winner would be in line , for a . fight with the negro. Jaclc Johnson.
TIMES WANT ADS SERVICE TO YOC!
ARE FOB
New Illinois are the little craft entered for the battle and all are in the best of shape for the battle for the cup by he Irish knight. During the past few weeks the little flyers have been thoroughly overhauled and a series of most exciting races is sure to result. Jackson Park, Spray and the Columbia are the favorites, but the other yachts have shown such a great improvement this season that the -contests are expected to be as close as they were In 1908, when It took five races to decide a winner. The Columbia Yacht club, under whose auspices the competition is held.
has chartered the Petoskey as a guest
boat. , Great crowds have been attracted to the races in the past and it is expected the attendance this year will be larger than ever. The guest boat leaves the I. C. R, R. dock, foot
and the distance to be-, gained; remain as they were at the conclusion of the preceding period of play. Another radical change is that governing the flying tackle. This has been eliminated entirely by a new rule which provides that a player must have at least one foot on the ground when tackling an opponent. The new legislation governing the forward pass, which a number of the experts were inclined to abolish altogether, will materially alter the play and aspect of the game. This year's rules provide that a play
er is only qualified to receive a forward pass who is at least one yard back
of his own line of scrimmage- or oc
cupies the position on the end of said line. No man may make a forward pass or kick the ball unless he is five
yards back of the line of scrimmage.
AL KAUFMAN TO FIGHT BILL LANG Philadelphia, Pa., Aug. 18. A telegram was received in this city from Harry -Edwards, . the fight promoter,: who-is in New York, stating that ho had matched Al Kaufman and Bill Lang1 to box six rounds at the Philadelphia" National, league baseball grounds here on Labor day, Sept. 5. Kaufman and Lang were to have met last night in a. ten round bout In New York, but th meeting was prevented by the police officials.

ROBERTSON TO DRIVE
Hi ELGIfTAUTO DERBY
Vandesbilt Cup Winner En
ters National Stock Chassis Event.
George Robertson, Vanderbilt cup
winner and one of the most famous pilots of automobiles in the country, last
night wired his entry In the Elgin Na- j tional stock chassis road races of the ! Chicago Motor club, scheduled for the I
Elgin course Aug. 26-27. Both the : driver and his Simplex car will leave New York next Saturday night on a
fast train and immediately upon ar-;
rival here Robertson will begin tuning
up the car for the three hundred mile grind.
Two other nominations were reeclved
for the first day's racing program.
Tom Hay, Chicago branch manager of j the Ford company, naming another Ford with Jim Blake to drive In the Fox River cup race, while R. S. Mat-
toon nominated a Lexington for the!
Illinois trophy, with the name of the
driver reserved. Thl3 swells the total .
nomination list to thirty-three cars with as many drivers, including the stars of the country with only one or
two exceptions.
TV. H. Pearce, who won the G. and J,
trophy with his Falcar, is practicing daily for the coming races, and is reported to have established a record quietly for the Elgin course. Art Gre-
nler, driving his National, is another early arrival at the track, and is pre
pared to do fast stunts as soon as regular practice is permitted over the course.
The heavy rains of Saturday night
are said to have made much improve
ment in the roadbed, and with the attention which is being paid to the sur
face the course will be surprisingly fast by the time the first races are held
next Friday.
