S s — TAKES A SUDDEN DISLIKE TO YANKS ExGiant Killer Continues to Beat New Yorkers. : New York, May 13.—Harry Covale- ski, the lefthanded pitcher who used to kill only Giants, is getting so broad- minded that he will anybody. The Yankees were his victims at the The pitching slay Polo grounds yesterday. Pole received fine support his teammates, including the great Ty Cobb, and Detroit won its first battle in the east by a score of 4 to 0. The mayor of Harrison, N. J., and several hundred citizens from town did their best to make Marty Kavanaugh, recruit second baseman of the Tigers, the hero of the day. Marty received a gold watch, but Ownie Bush got three hits, nor did the jew- elled case of Kavanaugh's timepiece glitter more brightly than some of the plays which were made by the little shortstop. The score: from r. h e Detroit 300000010—4 110 New York Batteries—Covaleski and Stanage; Schulz, Warhop, Cole and Sweeney. Naps Smother Athletics. Philadelphia, May 13.—Cleveland, the plaything of the Amer league’s western clubs, began its e ern invasion here by giving the world's champion Athletics a bad drubbing. | The score was 12 to 4. Against the clubs in its own section of the country the crippled Naps have been the weakest of hitters, but yes- terday they hammered Bush and Pen- nock all over the field. Jackson led the slugging, with three singles and a double in five times at bat. Leibold, Turner and Wood each got three hits. Eddie Murphy of the Athletics was the only hitter who could do any- thing with Mitchell's delivery. He made two singles and a triple. The score follows: r. h. e ..100061211—12 16 1 Athletics ..002001001—4 8 4 Batteries—Mitchell and Carisch; Bush, Pennock and Schang, Sturgis. Cleveland Nationals Take First.

Boston, May 13.—The Boston Red Sox shut out St. Louis by a score of 7 to 0 in the opening game of the series. Foster held the visitors to three hits. It was “Leary day,” and several hundred friends of the young St. Louis first baseman came with a brass band from Waltham, where Leary played on a high school team, and presented him with a diamond ring. He made one of the three hits off the Red Sox pitcher.

Rudolph and Cooper pitched air- tight ball, and each scored his team’s only run. Cooper’s single in the sixth was Pittsburg’s first hit off Rudolph. He took second on an out and scored on Carey's triple. Maranville then saved the game for Boston by running down the left field line and making a great catch of Mowrey's difficult Texas leaguer for the third out. Rudolph singled in the sixth inning for Boston, advanced on a sacrifice by Evers, took third on an out, and scored on Dugey's infield hit. Wagner's hand was badly spiked when Mann was retired at second trying to stretch a single in the tenth inning. He may not play against the New York ‘Giants, who begin a series here today.

Lord Wimborne's team had its | final breakdown yesterday and he saia that he would be obliged to tell the Hurlingham club committee today that he was unable to get a team together. It will then rest with the Hurling- ham club to get out of the engage- ment with America, as it was the of- ficial challenger. Lord Wimborne was busy yesterday making arrangements to ship the ponies on Saturday, when a telegram was received from Major C. M. Hunt- er saying that he would be unable to g0 on account of the illness of his wife. This left Lord Wimborne only three men for the team, consequently he stopped all arrangements to ship the ponies and began the search for a fourth man. He said it was no use going through all the detail of arranging to ship the ponies if he was unable to send a team. | On account of the red tape connect- | ed with the shipment and the time required to get papers signed he had i only five hours to get a player to take Major Hunter's place. The limit ex- | pired at 6:30 o'clock last night and | none was found. Lord Wimborne had | over fifty telegrams refusing the invi- tation for various reasons. The principal effort was devoted to getting. Captain Cheape, but up to a late hour he had not deigned to an- swer either Lord Wimborne's or the Hurlingham club’s invitations. Hurlingham’s invitation was sent in Saturday and the Daily Telegraph published vesterday in an article by “Polonius,” an alleged telegram from Cheape to Lord Wimborne, politely declining the invitation. Lord Wim- borne authorized a positive denial that he received any reply of any kind from Captain Cheape. He has traced Cheape's movements from Sat- urday and sent his friends ana Cheape’s friends to beg him to play. Lord Wimborne's friends say he hu- miliated himself and almost went on his knees to induce Cheape to play s0 that the challenge could be car- ried out. Cheape's friends say nothing will induce him to play on Lord Wim- borne’s team, while Lord Wimborne's friends say that Cheape has no per- sonal objection of Wimborne. but pressure he was unable to withstand brought . from other quarters, has kept him off the team.

Satisfaction —for a sturdy man—can come from real tobacco only. Insipid mixtures don't appeal to a man with real tobacco hunger. LIBERTY is pure Kentucky leaf, with the “body™ for a real smoke or chew, rich and pleasing. It takes three to five years to age the tobacco in LIBERTY; the process can't be hurried. That's the reason LIBERTY is so ripe, mellow and healthful. LIBERTY will “make good™ the first time you smoke or chew it. But if you want to prove that LIBERTY satis- faction isn'ta “flash in a pan,” give LIBERTY a week’s trial. You'll know then it always satisfiesand you'll always use it.
