[~ WHITE SOX PLAY Rowland's Boys Grab Pair of Vic- tories at Yanks' Expense New York, July 26.—The Yankees met the Chicago White Sox in a double header on the Polo Grounds vesterday and somewhere in Mich- igan, where the Sixth Reserve Engin- eers are in training, Cap. Huston re- ceived sad news. Unfortunately for Wild Bill Donovan and sundry others connected with the Yankees neither game went over nine innings, and what chance have the Yanks to win in regulation time? The pallid Sox from Chicago tore them off in both sections of the home- coming bargain tiff and hurled the Yankees back to the mythical bageball equator, the .500 mark. The Sox now are looking for the fellow who claimed the pennant for the Yanks. In the first game the Yankees suc- cuymbed naturally and easily to the Cicotte jinx, 4 to 1, and a holocaust of Sox hits wrecked the second en- counter before it was half an inning old. The Rowlanders took that one, 5 to 1. All in all, it wasn’'t a very pleasant afternoon unless you pay taxes and water rent in Cook county, Illinois. (First game).

Detroit, July 26.—~Busy’s Lass'e won the annual renewal of the Mer- chants and Manufacturers’ $10,000 stakes for 2.08 Grand Circuit trotters at the State Fair grounds yesterday. The winner is owned by . Barton Pardee of Atlantic City and driven by Walter R. Cox of Dover, N. H. The same pair triumphed last year with Mabel Trask. Al Mack won the first and second heats all the way. Busy's Lassie tried to get him in the opener and failed by half a length, and the second was easier. In the third Al Mack broke and Miss Perfection led into the stretch, Busy's Lassie being seventh as they hit the straightaway. She trotted around and past them and won by a long neck. After that she suffered Miss Perfection to lead in the fourth until ready, then trotted to the front, and in the fifth she al- ways had the pole, winning by sev- eral lengths. Mussell Shell beat Edward P. a nose in the first brush of the 2:08 pace, but after that Edward P. won the first heat of the 2:17 pace, but Ben Billings had no trouble showing the way to the others. LEWIS ILL; BOUT PUT OFF. Will Meet O’Dowd at St. Nicholas Rink on Aug. 2. New York, July 26.—The scheduled ten-round bout between Ted Kid Lewis of England, the welterweight champion and Mike O’Dowd, the St. Paul bexer, which was to have taken place on Friday night at the St. Nicholas A. C., has been postponed until Aug. 2. The reason ascribed for the post- ponement was that Lewis had, since contracting for the bout, suffered an attack of stomach trouble which in- terferred with his training. The welterweight champion expects to re- sume training next week in plenty of time for the new date. CHANCE FOR BLUSHING ‘SAMMY’ Liverpool Post wenders Whether Hoe Will Marry Abroad. (Correspondence. ) Liverpool, June 27.—Speculating editorially on whether the men of the American Army will marry English wives to any appreciable extent, The Liverpool Post says: “Will American men marry here? We wonder if the coming of the American army will have any effect upon the matrimonial prospects of our girls. For some reason, the men of the New World have hithertc never shown any great eagerness to take brides from the Old, and even the theory that this is because it has not been the way of the American man to cross the Atlantic, though it is con- soling to our national vanity, does not work. For it is noticeable that the Canadians, who have abounded in our midst during the past three years, are not nearly as fond of mar- rying into this country as are, for example, Australians. “Few of the young men from Aus- tralia seem to want to return home without English brides, but the Cana- dians either are married when they come or show a disposition to remain single. “‘Still, there is no need for the girls to dispair yet, and if some of them do not spend their lives as matrons in the United States we shall be sur- prised. Certainly it will not be their fault, as they show a most amiable desire to like any of the American naval and military and medical men they have seen, although in some ways the fellow citizens of President ‘Wilson are so curiously unlike our own men.” " |ANOTHER GREAT.ATHLETE HAS ANSWERED CALL OF COUNTRY 'LIKE REAL CHANPS, BARTLETT RESULTS Northwestern Boys and _Girls Some Classy Work at Weekly Com- Show petitive Meet Yesterday Anernoo.n.

' NEW, BRITAIN DAILY HERALD, THURSDAY, JULY 26, 1017. CAPPS AND Rear Admiral Washington Lee Capps, chosen by President Wilson to succeed General Ggethals as general manager of the Emergency Fleet cor- poration, has won distinction as chief constructor of the navy department and is credited with being larggly re- sponsible for the development of the The skele- ton, or basket, mast was one of his ideas for the improvement of fighting vessels, it is said. ’ Rear Admiral Capps was born in Portsmouth, Va., in 1864, and was graduated from the Naval Academy in 1884. He was appointed assistant naval constructor in 1888 and was promoted to naval constructor in 1895. He was stationed at the Brooklyn navy yard from 1889 to 1892 and with the bureau of construction and repair in Washington from 1892 to 1895. He was on the staff of Admiral Dewey in ' 1898-99, and from 1901 to 1903 he was head of the construction department | of the Brooklyn navy yard. In the latter year he became chief construc- tor of the . navy and chief of the bureau of construction —and repair, with the rank of rear admirel. In 1910 he resigned from that post and received a permanent commission as chief constructor. In 1913 he was ap- pointed by President Wilson to repre: sent the United States at the interna- tional maritime conference in London, and he was chairman of the confer. ence committee on safety of construc- tion.

Mr. Hurley has been energetic in. promoting the foreign trade of the United States, and it was rumored re- cently that Secretary Redfield would resign the portfalio of commerce and that Mr. Hurley would be appointed to succeed him. Mr. Hurley resigned from the federal trade commission in January of this year on the plea that his pri- vate business needed attention, and it was predicted in Washington at the time that the president would summn him to service again before long. He was born in Galesburg, Ill, on July 31, 1864. | uniun [ ' Bainbridge Colby, new member of the shipping board, is a well known New York lawyer, who came promi- counsel of interests about reforms in the Equitable Life | Assurance society following the Hughes investigation in 1905-6.

Thud, Centro Gallego was organized primar-| ily for the benefit of the Galiclani, the Centro Asturiano for natives o Asturias, ete, L An interesting account of thesg “centros’” appears in the curren number of the Bulletin of the Pat American Union, Washington, D. Gy from which the following facts rel ative to theso remarkable institi: tions are taken. The three leading clubs . of. this character are the “Gallegos,” the *“Asturiano,” and th “Dependientes,” or Clerks’ club, alf being organized along about th same lines and having ctically the same features. Their memberships, in the order named, are 45,000, 87; 000 and 25,000. They have all of thd social and recreative features of tha great social clubs of other largd cities; are housed in palatial club) buildings which have very large re ception rooms, parlors, libraries, read: ing rooms, ball-rooms, dining roou billiard halls, gymnasiums, Sswim ming pools, etc. In additioni to thesa social and recreative features, hows ever, they have certain mutual bene and aid departments that make them unigue and offer the greatest incentive for men of limited means to becom members. Among these may be mern tioned the following: Include Instructive Curricula. They maintain free night school: for their members, including courss: -in shorthand, bookkeeping and othe; commercial subjects; they maintaf kindergartens for the benefit of th members’ small children; gramms and high schools for the older chil dren; domestic science classes for th wives and daughters; they emplo¥ their own staff of physicians, sur- geons, oculists and - dentists, who at-} tend to the wants of members freg) of any charge—except for material used in filling teeth or the lenses pre-| scribed to correct and aid sight—and| they each maintain their own hoa-| pitals, sanitariums and asylums for the insane. Especlally notable are their general hospitals, known , asg “quintas,” which have their own med- ical corps and are as thoroughly ‘and efficiently equipped as are the most modern of such institutions in any of the great world citles. Bach has its own pharmaceutical department, carrying full lines of medicines and druggist sundries for the ‘quinta.” As an instance of the Work of these hospitals may be cited the quinta be= longing to the ‘‘Centro Gallego,” which treats over 12,000 patients & year, not counting those who merely visit the doctors’ offices, or receive treatment at home. When treated at the “quinta’” the room, meals and medicines prescribed are furnished without extra charge, and in the event of the death of the patient the club provides for a suitable burial in cases where the family of the de- ceased is unable to bear the expense. The club dues are not over $1.50 per month for regular members. It is these features that have made the “centros” of Habana so popular. and account for the tremendous membership. Some of these, like the “Balear” and “Castellano,” aiso ad- | mit women to membership. In ad= dition to the ‘“‘centros” there are au| great number of social clubs of tha character usually found in large citles, including a fine country club, tennis clubs, so that taken altogether.
