DODGERS EVEN SERIES WITH REDS; SCORE SIX RUNS WEDNESDAY BROOKLYN, July 14. The Dodgers evened the series with the Reds here Wednesday by scoring five runs at the expense of Pitcher Luque and driving him off the mound. Luque yielded five hits in this round, including home runs by Kilduff and Griffith and a triple by Krueger. The five-run lead .was too big to

overcome, although the Reds did threaten to drive Cador from the box in the seventh and eighth. In the seventh inning they bunched three hits for two runs, and in the eighth two runs were wasted. Again in the ninth, with Neale and Groh on first and second and one out, Roush hit into a double play. , Roush and Daubert collected two hits each, and both the center fielder's wallops chipped the right field wall. Wingo also collected two hits, a single and a triple. Kilduff led the Dodgers with the bat, getting a homer and two singles. CINCINNATI AB. R. H. O. A. E.

THE

Jockey Club Controlling Turf Would Mae King's Sport Clean Rules Owners and Jockeys Off Track Without Giving Reasons Idea Is To Keep Public from Thinking All Racing Sordid.

By FRANK C. MEXKE A modernized Sherlock Holmes seems necessary to understand the quaint ways of the Jockey Club of New York, which is the controlling turf body of America. The organization is the most autocratio in the entire history of sportdom. Its domination of the thoroughbred game is absolute. Its rulings are unchangeable. , Its every session i3 of the Star Chamber variety. Its methods are not popular. Whether they are justified is a matter of debate.Through the years, the Jockey Club has ruled owners, trainers and jockeys off the turf without ever making known the reasons which prompted its action. Often as was the case with Johnny Loftus its decisions have removed public idols from the spotlight. The racing multitude clamored for an explanation but the Jockey Club never delivered. Findings Are Fair. Some persons hold to the belief that the Jockey Club sometimes blunders in its rulings and bo deals out grave injustice to the victims. This may be true and it may not. The Club's findings in each case may represent 100 Der cent fairness. Then, again. it may reach its conclusions only after hearing one side of the case Its court methods are a mystery. Critics call them Un-American. They insist that a public trial of public men is the only way. But the Jockey club listens not to criticism and censure. It goes along on its way, suspending, ruling off, as it does, necessary. And the whys and the wherefores continue a deeply shrouded secret. Serve Best Interests. The Jockey Club undoubtedly con cludes that Star Chamber proceedings serve the best interests of turfdom. It realizes better than anyone else that racing is a game which many persons believe to be basically crooked. That being the case, the critics and "reformers" would use the slightest pretext to chant "I told you so." The Jockey Club carefully refrains from giving those persons any ammunition to shoot at a spot which the club is trying by every means to make honest and for honest men only. Clean racing at any cost." That's the Jockey Club slogan. The price which is pays to live up to it is How They Stand NATIONAL LEAGUE.

criticism and condemnation; the price which pays for refusng to reveal to the public any sordidness or crookedness which it uncovers is criticism and condemnation even more bitter. But it probably solaces itself with the knowledge that by its procedure it has accomplished its fundamental purpose the protection of racing as a sport. The Jockey Club may not always have been right in its ruling. It may have blundered here and there. No human, or group of humans is infallible. But this one fact should always be borne in mind when certain own ers, trainers or Jockers shriek that an injustice has been done. j Not one of the nianv which the Jockeyciub has seen fit to rule off the turf, either temporarily or permanent ly, ever nas gone into a court of law to seek the justice which he claims the Jockey Club has denied him.

' Many out-of-town shooters were on hands, and some very good scores were turned as the day was ideal one for trap shooting. The shoot started at 1:00 o'clock. t Chips and Slips Urban Shocker, under suspension by the St. Louis Browns for quitting the club without leave, rejoined the Browns bringing back with him the novel alibi that he had stopped off at a resort in Michigan a day for fishing, got so sunburned he couldn't wear his clothes and had to lay up until the blisters healed. The New York Yankees in 12 straight games previous to July 5 went through without changing the starting pitcher. They won 10 of the gamea and the pitchers allowed an average Of a trifle over three runs to the game. On July 5, the record was broken when Piercy and Quinn both blew up in the first innings, after which Jack Quinn finished the game in good shape. For one day last week Tris Speaker, by virtue of a hit in one time at bat, nosed ahead of Harry Heilman for the American league batting leadership. Heilman getting but one blow in three trips to the plate But Heilman slapped the ball on the nose sufficiently hard in the double header of July 7 to regain his leadership, with points to spare. Things are not all lovely among the Giants, reports state. Catcher Earl Smith and Coach Cozy Dolan had a pitched battle the other day and Manager McGraw penalized Smith to a $200 fine for his part in it. It seemed that in batting practice Smith insisted in hitting balls into the stand. Dolan told him not to do it. One word brought on another and the fight was on. To hide the real trouble a bunk story was sent out that Smith had fought a prohibition agent who had attempted to search his locker. CONN THIS. HORATIO! ,Pat Donovan, manager of the Jersey City team, got a wire from a player signing himself Harold Walker asking for a job. He said he could piay snort, jonnny Jones split a finger, so Donovan bethought himself of Walker and wired him to come on lor trial, ine next day a youngster arrived in camp with a week s growth of beard on his face and his t nes sticking out of his shoes. Donovan is wise enough to know it is not all in looks, so he rigged Walker out and put him in the game. The fans gave the bearded youth the laugh, but he turned it on them when he hit a homer on his first trip to the plate and doubled the next time up. Manager Donovan thinks his new man may be a find. He had been playing independent ball up in New England, he said, and when he got Donovan's wire he jut hopped a train and came on. Jim Thorpe and "Bunny" Brief, of Toledo and Kansas City, respectively, entered the modern hill of fame Wednesday when each smashed out three circuit clouts during nine regular innings of play. This is a startling feat even in this day when we are not surprised at very many things and it is hard to remember another one of this age that will compare with it.'

PART ONE. "My dear fellow," raid Sherlock lock Holmes, as we sat on either side of the fire in his lodgings at Baker street, "life - is infinitely stranger than anything which the mind of man could invent. We would not dare -conveive the things which are really mere commonplaces of existence. If we could fly out of that window hand in hand, hover over the great city, gently remove the roofs, and peep in at the queer things which are going on, the strange coincidences, the plannings, the cross-purposes, the wonderful chains of events, working through generations, and leading to the most outre results, it would make all fiction with its conventionalities and foreseen conclusions most stale and unprofitable." "And yet I am not convinced cf it," I answered. "The cases which corne to light in the papers, are, as a rule, bald enough, and vulgar enough. We have in our police reports realism pushed to its extreme limits, and yet the result is, it must be confessed, neither fascinating nor artistic. "A certain selection and discretion must be used in producing a realistic effect, remarked Homes. "This is wanting in the police report, where more stress is laid, perhaps, upon tho platitudes of the magistrate than upon the details, which to an observer, contam the Vltal essence of matter- Depend upon it. the whole there is nothing so unnatural as the common-, place."' I smiled and shook my head. "I can quite understand you thinking so," I said. "Of course, in your position of unofficial adviser and helper to everybody who is absolutely puzzled, throughout three continents, you are brought in contact with all that is strange and bizarre. - But here" I picked up the morning paper from the ground "let us put it to a practical test. Here is the first heading upon which I come. "A husband's cruelty to his wife.' There is haf a column of print, but I know without reading it that it is all perfectly familiar to me. There is, of course, the other woman, the drink, the push, the bow, the bruise, the sympathetic sister or landlady. The crudest of writers could invent nothing more crude." "Indeed, you exampe is an unfortunate one for your argument," said Homes, taking the paper and glancing his eye down it. "This is the Dundas separation case, and, as it happens, I was engaged in clearing up some small points in connection with it. The husband was a teetotallar, there was no other woman, and the conduct com plained of was that he had drifted into the habit of winding up every meal by taking out his false teeth, and hurling them at his wife, which, IT.ll TL ill o 11 aw A a t ri or n ? r 1 i xr tn t r w average story-teller. Take a pinch of snuff, doctor, and acknowledge . that j I have scored over you in your example." I He held out his snuffbox of old gold, with a -great-amethy&t in the center of the lid. Its splendor was in ruch contrast to his homely ways and simple life that I could not help commenting upon it. "Ah," said he, "I forgot that I had not seen you for some weeks. It is a little souvenir from the King of Bohemia in return for my assistance in the case of the Irene Adler papers." "And the ring?" I asked, glancing at a remarkable brilliant which sparkled upon his finger. "It was from the reigning family of Holland, though the matter in which I served them was of such delicacy that I cannot confide it even to you, who have been good enough to chronicle one or two of my little problems.' "And have you any on hand just now?" I asked, with interest. "Some ten or twelve, but none which present any feature of interest. They are important, you understand, without being interesting. Indeed, I havo found that it is usually in unimportant matters that there is a field for observation, and for the quick analysis of cause and effect which gives the charm to an investigation. The larger crimes are apt to be the simpler, for the bigger the crime, the more obvious, as a rule, is the motive. In these cases, save for one rather intricate matter which has been referred to me from Marseilles, there is nothing which presents any features of interest. It is possible, however, that I may have something better before very many minutes are over, for this is one of my clients, or I am much mistaken. " He had risen from his chair, and was standing between the parted blinds, gazing down into the dull, neuuaruuicu uuuuuu on i saw mat, on me pavement opposite iner8 stoou a large woman with a heavy fur boa around her neck, and a large curling red feather in a broad-brimemd hat which was tilted in a coquettish Duch-e?s-of-Devonshire fashion over her ear. From under this great panoply she peeped up In a nervous, hesitating fashion at our windows, while her body oscillated backward and forward, and her fingers figited with her glove buttons. Suddenly, with a plunge, as of the swimmer who leaves the bank, she hurried across the road, and we heard the sharn clang of the bell. "I have seen those symptoms before," said Holmes, throwing his cigarette into the fire. "Oscillation upon the pavement always means an affaire de coeur. She would like advice, but is not sure that the matter is not too delicate for communication. And yet, even here we may discriminate. When a woman has been seriously wronged by a man she no longer oscillates, and the usual symptom is a broken bell wire. Here we may take it that there is a love affair, but that the maiden is not so much angry as perplexed, or grieved. But here she comes in person to" resolve our doubts." As he spoke there was a tap at th3 door, and the boy in buttons entered to announce Miss Mary Sutherland, while the lady herself loomed behind his small black figure like a fullsailed merchant-man behind a tiny pilot boat. Sherlock Holmes welcomed her with the easy courtesy for which he was remarkable, and having closed the door, and bowed her into au armchair, he looked her over in "the minute, and yet abstracted fashion which was peculiar to' him. . "Do you not find," he said, "that with your short sight it is a little trying to do so much typewriting?" "I did at first," she answered, "but now I know where the letters are without looking." Than, suddenly

IND., THURSDAY, JULY 14,

Identity realizing the full purport of. his words, she gave a violent start and looked up, with fear and astonishment upon her broad, good-humored face. "You've heard about me, Mr. Holmes," she cried, "else how could you know all that?" "Never mind." said Holmes, laughing; "it is my business to know things. Perhaps I have trained myself to see what others overlook. If not, why should you come to consult me"? I came to you, sir, because I heard of you from Mrs. Etherege, whose husband you found so easy when the police and every one had given him up for dead. Oh, Mr. Holmes, I wish you would do as much for me. I'm not rich, but still I have a hundred a year in my own right, besides the little that I make by the machine, and I would give it all to know what has become of Mr. Hosner Angel." "Why did you come away to consult me in such a hurry?" asked Sherlock Holmes, with his finger-tips together, and bis eyes to the ceiling. Again a startled look came over the somewhat vacuous face of Miss Mary Sutherland. "Yes. I did bang out of the house," she said, "for it made me angry to see the easy way in which ! Mr. Windibank that Is, my father took it all. He would not go to the police, and he would go to you, and so at last, as he would do nothing, and kept on saying that there was no harm done, it made me mad, and I just on with my things and came right away to you. "Your father," said Holmes, "your step-father, surely, since the name is different." "Yes, my step-father. I call him father, though it sounds funny, too, for he is only five years and two months older than myself." "And your mother is alive?" "Oh yes, mother is alive and well. I wasn't best pleased, Mr. Holmes, when she married again so soon after father's death, and a man who was nearly 15 years younger than herself. Father was a plunder in the Totten ham Court Road, and he left a tidy business behind him, which mother carried on with Mr. Hardy, the foreman; but when Mr. Windibank came he made her sell the business, for he was very superior, being a traveller in wines. They got 4,700 for the goodwill and interest, which wasn't near as much as father could have got if he had been alive." I had expected to see Sherlock Holmes impatient under this rambling and inconsequential narrative, but, on the contrary, he had listened with the greatest concentration of attention. "Your own little income," he asked, "does it come out of the business?" "Oh no, sir. It is quite separate, and was left me by my Uncle Ned in Auckland. It is in New Zealand stock, paying 4 percent. Two thous anda five hundred pounds 'was the amount, but I can only touch the interest." "You Interest me extremely," said noimes. Ana since you araw so large a sum as a hundred a year, with what you earn into the bargain, you no doubt travel a little, and indulge yourself in every way. I believe that a single lady can get on very nicely upon an income of about 60." "I could do with much less than that, Mr. Holme3, but you understand that as long as I live at home I don't wish to be a burden to them, and so they have the use of the money just while I am staying with them. Of course, that is only just for the time. Mr. Windibank draws my interest every quarter, and pays it over to mother, and I find that I can do pretty well with what I earn at typewriting. It brings me twopence a sheet, and I can often do from 15 to 20 sheets in a day." "You have made your position very clear to me," said Holmes. "This is my friend, Dr. Watson, before whom you can speak as freely as before myself. Kindly tell us now all about your connection with Mr. Hosmer Angel." A flush stole over Miss Sutherland's face, and she picked nervously at the fringe of her jacket. "I met him first at the gasfitters' ball," she said. They used to send father tickets when he was alive, and then afterwards they remembered us, and sent them to mother. Mr. Windibank did not wish us to go. He never Old wish us to go anywhere. He would get quite mad if I wanted so much as to join a Sunday school treat. But this time I was set on going, and I would go; for what right had he to prevent? He said the folk were not fit for us to know, when all father's friends were to be there. And he said that I had nothing fit to wear, when I had my purple plush that I " nad never c o mucn as taKen out of the drawer At last, when nothing else would do he, went off to France upon the business of the firm, but we went, mother and I, with Mr. Hardy, who used to be our foreman, and it was there I met Itfr. Hosmer Angel." "I suppose," said Holmes, "that when Mr. Windibank came back from France he was very annoyed at your having gone to the ball." "Oh, well, he was very good about i it. He laughed, I remember, and ' shrugged hfs shoulders, and said . there was no use denying anything to j a woman, rcr she would have her way." "I see. Then at the gasfitters ball you met, as I understand, a gentleman called Mr. Hosmer Angel." "Yes, sir.

met him that is to say, Mr. Holmes, I met him twice for walks, but after that father came back again, and Mr. Hosmer Angel could not come to the house any more." "No?" - "Well, you know, father didn't like anything of the sort.. He wouldn't have any visitors if he could help it, and he used to say that a woman should be happy in her own family circle. But then, as I used to say to mother, a woman wants her own circle to begin with, and I bad not got mine yet." "But how about Mr.. Hosmer Angel? Did he make no attempt to see you?" "Well, father was going off to France again in a week, and Hosmer wrote and said that it would be safer and better not to see each other until he had gone. We could write in the meantime, and he used to write every day. I took the letters in in the morning, so there was no need for father to know."
