At any rate, Barney Dreyfuss says he paid $22,500 for Marty O'Toole, and Marty refuses to get the swelled head over it, But if somebody came around and paid $22,500 for you and you didn’t get even a glimpse of the money, perhaps you wouldn't get awell-headed either, However, O'Toole has reason to be proud, and yet he's a modest, unassuming Irish Ind and. he never gots mad. although | he's red-headed.

Perhaps this is not Mr. Dugdale’s intention—but if it is he should make haste slowly. Seattle fans did not want to see George Ort in action again ar—or any other year, for that matter. ey are not particularly interested in the punishment of Ort further than the making ‘a public example of any player who degrades the pastime and makes the game a nuisance. But they are interested that far. Ort’s slugging of the umpire came as a climax to a week of downright ruffianism on the local diamond, Cursing and rowdy tactics in fact have been features of nearly every game played recently, until there is little wonder that few women turn out to see the exhibitions. “ And the players have not been the only offenders either. Al- ways there are some «elf-styled fans in grand stand or bleachers who consider their admission to the game a license to pour forth their tirade of coarse, sic’ ening talk, The rowdy on the diamond and the pest in grand stand or bleachers must be suppressed, and one Dugdale, if he is wise, will get busy in this direction without much more delay. this —= a i fn about a week, Hacken SPORT SPARKS schmidt engaged pszaage on a lner leaving Eng'snd tomorrow, and will take up rigorous training im- SAN FRANCISCO. — Declaring mediately upon arrival bere. that he don’t believe In putting on third or fourth raters, because it} NEW YORK.—Gotham fight fans hurts the boxing game, Jimmy Coff-|are awaiting with great eagernes* roth has decided not to stage athe fight between Billy Papke ane contest in San Francisco this | Sailor Burke tonight at the Twen- month unless he can land a really|tieth Century Athletic club.
