In one of the closest games ever played at Mohegan park the Broadway school team defeated the St. Patrick’s school team by the score of 1 to 0. ‘Wednesday afternoon. This game was the deciding game of a three game series in which Broadway showed their superiority. Theegame was a pitchers’ battle between Con- nolly and Counihan. Connolly walked three in the ninth and then Croker banged out a single which brought in Counihan. The St. Patrick’s nine pull- ed off a triple play in the sixth with three men on. <Counihan struck out 16 men and Connolly 10. The St. Pat- rick's nine got two hits off Counihan, while Broadway got seven off Con- nolly. Broadway has cleaned up about 11 the sclool teams in the city and they now challenge all teams under 16 years of age. This makes their seventh straight victory. Yantic-Nationals Again.

New York, June 2.—Leach Cross of New York outfought Ad Wolgast, for- mer lightweight champion, in a ten round bout here tonight. Cross had a decided advantage in avery round but the fourth, when Wol- gast showed a little of his old-time form and used a left to the body ef- fectively. In the sixth round Wolgast fAoored Cross with a left hook to the jaw and Cross took the count of eight on one knee while bantering the for- mer champion. Cross after getting on his feet came back with a volley of lefts and rights that brought blood zushing from Wolgasts mouth and nose and offset his slight lead. weighed 136 and Wolgast 137 Columbia Crews Arrive at Poughkeep- sie.

Y., June 2.—One hundred and nineteen golfers took part in the qualifying round of the thirty-six holes medal play for the metroropolitan am- ateur championship over the Apawa- mis club’s links today. More than one hundred of these turned in cards and 29 qualified for championship match play with scores of 188 and under. Nine more were tied with 169 each and they will play off early tomorrow morning for the three vacant places in the qualifying division. The scores as a rule were high, as the weather conditions were unfavorable, a brisk cold wind blowing, chilling the com- itors all day. Six of the competitors, including Oscar Kirkwood, the present title holder, had won this event in former years and all of them qualified today. Roy D. Webb of Englewood, N. J., ‘was the medal winner with 78-77—155, just one stroke better than Jerome D. Travers, who has won the metropoli- tant title five times. Kirby and Wal- ter J. Davis with 161 each, Findlay S. Douglass, 163: Charles H. Seely, 166, and Fred Herreshoff 168, were the oth- qualified again for the title. Following are some of the other scores on the qualifying list: Max D.

BLAMES HIS BRAINS FOR RING SETBACKS Lead Cross Thinks He Would Be a Champion If He Were Thicker Upstairs. B Leach Cross has confessed. He ad- mits with never a sign of a blush that he has always fought too carefully. As _he himself puts it: “Yes, I admit I figure too much on what might happen in the ring. Every time I fight a tough fellow I generally wind up the fight by carrying him off his feet with my speed and punches. Now I admit that there isn’t any rea- son why I should finish with all that extra vitality left. It's because I'm a thinking fighter. I'm not glove shy, I'm not afraid, It's just that my brain is too active in the ring. I'm always think of calamity overtaking me in the g. “Oh, T own up all right. It's always been that way with fighters who have had a little schooling. I went to col- lege, S0 I'm above the average fighter ‘when it comes to gray matter, if I do say it myself, but I want to say that 1 would have been a champion if I'd been g little thicker upstairs” and Leach tapped his head. “If I had been ignorant, with my natural strength and reserve vitality—well, I'd have been a tough bird to wrest the title from, for I would surely have had it long ago. “Smart fellows can’t take it, that's all there is to it. Show me a well read, well educated boxer and I'll show you a man who doesn't dare let himself MET. AMATEUR GOLF CHAMPIONSHIP List of Over 119 Golfers Took Part in Qualifying Round— 29 Qualify for Championship Match—Two Connecticut take a flogging in the ring. The rea- son I fought so well in California is that they have 20 round bouts there and it gave me a chance to figure from the first round just what would be doing in the tenth and so on. “But you can't do that in the short ten round bouts. By the time you've got through thinking, the fans are on their way home. But you just stop and think. All the greatest fighters were uneducated meh. Any great fighter who had an education never lasted long, and none ever reached a championship. They're too sensible to stay in the ring.” “One thing made me boil recently. It happened in m¥| fight with Joe Shu- grue. They sald he knocked me down. ‘What made me sore was to read re- ports of the fight which described just the blow and with which hand it was delivered. It wasn’t a blow at all and he @idn’'t hit me with his fist. He let fly a left hook and when I pulled away he missed. He followed this up quick- ly with a right hand swing. I step- ped Inside of it, and as I made him miss again, e bumped into me hard. His right shoulder hit me and sent me off my balance and I sat down hard. I never was so surprised in my life but for them to say that he floor- ed me with a clean blow is ridiculous. I tried hard to get him to open up and start swinging with me. “ ‘Come on, Joe, let's make it look like a regular fight. Let's mix it, then maybe they’ll give us a return fight,’ I said to him, as we clinched. But he wouldn’t fall. He was running his own campaign and he knew I was try- ing to get him to lower his guard. It's a good thing he didn't. I would have knocked him out sure. But no, sir, Joe was just that foxy and he refused to change his style for my spe- cial benefit. “But_T1l predict something right now. Tl bet that inside of two years Joe Shugrue will have been wiped off the map. It's bound to happen. He hasn’t anything but speed and he gets hit a lot. That's going to slow him up sure. Then he'll be another Battling Hurley. Wasn't he like Shugrue though? Same speed and they beat him down to a walk. I'll never for- get how sorry 1 was for him the night I knocked him out for the first time in his life. It's fine to be as game as he was. But I was lucky I guess. After all the others had failed, I was lucky enough to hit the right spot oi his_chin. “Retire? Why should I? Fighting is a business with me. Where could I get bigger money? It comes easy for me to fight. 1 don't get hurt. Il outlast them all. I own a big car now, and trouble? Say, they’re enough to make a fellow go stark mad.” Players Call Baseball Strike Off.

Speculators’ Attention Diverted German and Mexican Problems. by New York, June 2.—Wall Street’s attention was quite evenly divided to- day between this country’s relations with Germany and Mexics The au- dience granted by President Wilson to the German ambassgdor and the em- phatic declaration to Mexico’s warring leaders were almost the only definite developments of an otherwise unevent- ful session. The financial community was clear- ly inclined to regard the visit of the German ambassador to the White House as a factor of favorable im- port. The entire list, including the international group, advanced smart- 1y during the morning on a volume of business far in excess of the preced- ing day. War shares and other specialties, as well as coppers, partic- ipated in the rise, which lost much of its enthusiasm. Later trading slack- ened t» a marked degree in the after- noon dnd some gains were reduced to fractions at the dull close. Total sales of stocks amounted to 390,000 shares, Cables stating that the Bank of England_had released $1,375,000 of its gold and had sold $10,000,000 of its foreign gold coin doubltless account- ed for the steadiness of local exchange on London, but the record for francs was again lowered, remittances on Paris being quoted at_5.45, against the previous price of 5.43 3-4. Itadian exchange was a trifle firmer, but the volume of bills on Rome was a fur- ther reflection of offerings by our bankers and manufacturers against purchases of war supplies. Announcement that the Missouri Pacific railwav note extension play had become effective imparted some- what greater steadiness to the stock and the notes also rose appreciably. Later these issues fell back again as a result of an attachment against the company by a non-assenting note- holder.

Boston, Mass.,, June 2.—New York and Boston played ten innings to a five run tie in shivering weather to- day. The game was called because of darkness. Six New York runners actually crossed the plate, but one run was lost in an unusual manner. Burns, from third base, had raced for home when Moran caught Doyle’s fly. The Bos- ton outfielder threw the ball toward the home plate, but Captain Doyle of the Giants intercepted it at first base. It was his contention that the ball was to late to catch Burns at home. The umpires ruled that his interference re- tired the base runner and the score was lost.

DOINGS IN THE AUTO WORLD Receipts of Automobile Department of Secretary of States Will be More Than $500,000 for Fiscal Year Ending September 30—Use of Motor Trucks Steadily In- creasing—European War Increasing Motoring in This Country. . There is now reason to think that the receipts of the automobile depart- ment of the office of the secretary of state for the present fiscal year end- ing September 30, will be more than $500,000 and that the total amount will be in the neighborhood of $100,000 in excess of the total receipts for the previous year. The entire receipts for the fiscal year ending September 30, 1914, amounted to $406,623.34. The receipts from January 1 of this year to May 19 amounted to $432,515.16. This shows that the present year thus far is ahead of the total of 1914 by $26,000, and there are four months of the year yet to run. The new pro rata rule by which the for the licenses according to the time they will be used will make a reduc- tion, but it is expected that it will be more than made up by the increase in the number of licenses issued. Here- tofore there was a uniform charge for licenses and the time of issuing them was not taken into account. The new prorata rule by which the amount of the fee is fixed according to the month in which it is taken out has been in effect since April. A $5 license cost $3.75 in April and next De: the privileges enjoyed under it can be :ecusred for the last month of the year or $1. The figure Of the approximate num- —— ber of automobiles in use in the state are given as follows: Pleasure vehi- cles, 24,300; commercial, 3,525; livery, 2,000; motorcycles, 2,850. The number of operators of motor vehicles in the state is given at 35,700 and the number of motorcycle opera- tors at 1,600. The jitney service was a source of some trouble to the department at first. The applications for markers were so numerous that the supply gave out, and it was necessary to use improyised :::rken of cardboard. The difficulty causéd by the unexpected de- velopment of the service was soon ad- Justed, however, when a fresh supply of markers was secured to meet the demand. A history of the internal gear drive for motor trucks is being compiled by the Internal Gear Drive association and in the process of this work an interesting fact that may explain some of the readiness of an oil company to use motor cars for transportation has :men ‘brought Oll:l.,‘tEetwun six and even Yyears ago company bought a truck to use in Indianapolis u;l:‘lt chose one with a gear driven rear axle. The truck remained in service until a few weeks ago when the com- pany received an offer to trade this truck for & new model of the same BUICK ever offered. 1916 model. obtained the original 1915, nothing could be considered but Buick quality. After analyzing the requirements of the buying public, thoroughly worked out that a car similar to the Model 37 BUICK which has been in use for the past two years was taken as the outline for the A few changes have been made, such as floating rear axle and cantilever springs.

The next item was how cheap could this car be produced and still retain in quantit of 50,000, The Buick Co. was able to establish a price, on a six-cylinder five passenger touring car under $1,000. In their previous ad a statement was made that the public would be repaid for waiting for this announcement and the Buick Co. would set the pace for cars selling from $900 to $1,500. The Buick Co will continue to manufacture the large seven passenger Six. The facts above stated will be demonstrated in the near future at The IMPERIAL GARAGE.

The offer was accepted, the old timer going as part payment but before it was turned back to the maker its record was gone into care- fully. The cost sheets showed that in the more then six years of constant employment not a cent had been ex- pended for repairs on the rear axle nor had a single replacement of a part been made while in all, the truck had covered 138,000 miles, an average of approximately 23,000 miles a year, Before selling the old truck again the maker tore it down to determine how much overhauling was necessary, but the rear axle showed so little wear that it was decided to keep it just as it was with all the original parts. “The constantly increasing use of motor trucks is due to the fact that business men who take the pains to study their haulage problems must in- variably conclude that efficiency and economy can only be achieved by sending Dobbin “back to the farm,” ” says C. H. McCausland of a motor truck company. “Not that the horse hasn’t still his place in the world’s work — he has. But, as a sole reliance in delivery ser- vice, he is permanently and definite- ly @ ‘has been’ He hasn’t the speed, the strength or the stamina to keep up the demands of the time. And when all the items are figured up, he is also mors expensive to maintain. “Some business men do not yet see beyond the fact that a motor truck costs more than horses to start with. They do not stop to consider the greater carrying and ground covering capacity of the truck — for instance the fact that a truck will travel 21 to 25 miles while its hors-hauled car- rying equivalent is going seven or eight miles. “It is a common thing for a truck to travel 15,000 to 20,000 miles a year and they could do three times that if used beyond the usual eight or nine hours. On the other hand, it is a mighty good horse, as every one knows that will do 5,000 miles a year.” The following quotation is from a breezy editorial in the April issue of the Electrical Times of London, com- menting on a recent article released by the Electric Vehicle Association of America on “Electrics in Omnibus Service.” It gives an English view of the present “jitney” craze. “In an article by Mr. A. J. Mar- shall, secretary of the-Electrical Vehi- cle Association of America, the Elec trical Times is much quoted, and carefully read the argument. It is amusing to note that American bus and tramway people are just begin- ning to_get cross with pirate omni- buses. Not infrequently “jitneys are operated by unscrupulous persons.’ ‘We know those peopie well, they come fra’ Sheffield. A ‘jitney’ is an inde- pendent guerrillero. It selects what Toutes it likes, cut in and out when it like: In Germany it would certainly be verboten, and it even shocks. the American sense of order, which makes for monopoly. It should not be for- gotten, however, that once upon a time every public vehicle was in certain ways a ‘Jitney’ and that the time is not yet ripe for turning transports in- to a state or municipal monopoly. “We remember several years ago a very interesting type of ‘jitney’ was to be seen in Lisbon. It is presnm- ably extinct now, for it constituted such a plague for the interests most concerned that we suppose a remedy was found. Or are the horse cars still at work as omnibuses? They were horse drawn and they had wheels which approximately fitted the tram rails. Normally, they made use of the rails in question, the other road eurfaces being extremely bad, But the wheels had slight flanges, and the car was quite easily pulled off the track for passing traffic. The grow- ing pressure of the ‘jitney’ in Ameri- ca is calling attention to the advant- ages of an auxiliary omnibus ser- vice, and this demand Mr. Marshll naturally proposes to supply with good electric vehicles. It gives him the text for a resume of the electric vehicle position both here and in America. The European war may have its share in_increasing touring in the United States this year, but possibly the San Francisco and San Diego ex- positions coupled with the improve- ments which the good roads movement has induced, will have still greater ef- fect on the number of cars which traverse transcontinental routes. Not only _do the expositions hold forth attractions, but over 400 conven- tions have been scheduled for San Francisco this summer. Women’s con- gresses, agricultural societies, business organizations, tducational clubs, fra- ternal societies, college fraternities, professional, religious and scientific men, labor and industrial organiza- tions and many others comprise the list which will draw thousands to the scenc of -the celebration of the com- plet.on of the Panama canal. Even genealogical societies, fathers, mothers, brothers, sisters, great-aunts and great-uncles will be there and 1t stands to reason that many will reach the Golden Gate in their automobiles. Every opportunity has been given car owners to make their intended trip to California by motor. Good roads organizations, clvic and private, have induced the expenditure of nearly $250,000,000 within the past year in the improvement of American roads and at least three transcontinental routes are avilable to ail tourists. The high- ways are marked and road logs and guides are placed at the free disposal of every person who owns a car, large or smail, whatever make or whatever organizations as the National Tourinz on more than 70,000 miles of the best American roads, and has prepared voad logs and road maps. The tour- ing bureau will even route the tourist and white enamelled steel road guides Bureau. This bureau has within the ‘ast few years placed permanent blue and give him advice as to what equip- ment he should take and where the best roads can be found at every sea- son in the year. Surely with such co-operation on the part of public and private organ- izations there is no reason why tour- ing in 1916 and 1917 should not eclipse even that of 1915, which will un- doubtedly be the greatest this country has ever known. DEAFNESS CANNOT BE CURED by local applications, as they cannot reach the diseased portion of the ear. There is only one way to cure deaf- ness, and that is by constitutional rem- edies. Deafness is caused by an in- flamed condition of the mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube. When this tube is Inflamed you have a rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and when it is_entirely closed deafriess is the result, and unless the inflammation can be taken out ana this tube restored to its normal condition, hearing will be destroyed forever; nine cases out of ten are caused by catarrh. which is nothing but an_ inflamed condition of the mucous surfaces.
