PIRATES BIG Wagner, Clarge and Leach Played Together for 13 Years Made 5905 Hits. When Pittsburg traded Tommy Leach and Lefty Leifield to tho Chicago Cubs for Artie Hofman and King Cole one of the grestest of trios of baseball players known in history of the game was forever season of 1899 Tommy Leach, a fast Hoy, was sent to play third base for the Louisville Colonels, which team was then on the National league cir- cuit. . For 13 years these three great players hung together electrifying the baseball wotld, winning four pen- nants and one world s champivaship. GREATEST TRIO. Probably no such trio ev together as did the Mighty ner, the Ws great leader, Clarke, am fast, brainy Leach. After playing together in Louisville one dear. the National league circuit was cut. down to eight clubs, and Louisville was consolidated with Pittsburg in 1900 and Fred Clarke was made manager. In 1901, 1902 and 1903 Pittsburg won the National league pennant. In 1903 Pittsburg lost in the world s championship series to the Boston Americans after winning three of the first four games. Clarke, at the head of the peerless FAMOUS FOR YEARS responsible for six of the runs in that game, would no more drive men es kept on and in 2909 again won THREE the pennant and beat Detroit for the world s championship. Leach always batted before Clarke, and Clarke before Waguer and many pitcher went out of the game bro- Ken-hearted through the hitting and base-running of the three. Pittsburg becams known as s three-man team, through their great work. Some idea of the heart-breaking pace led by these men can be . had from the fact that 5905 times they hit safely after caming to bat 20 more than 19,043 times; of these 5905 hits the total tae were 8300, they ran bases can be told no better than the record of 1159 steals show. HANDLE 16,530 CHANCES. These great players combined han- dled 16,530 chances out of a total of 17,638. Leach wound up his great Pitts- burg career against St. Louis be sending a fly to Evans in right Sela, but not until he hit two singles and a three-base hit, helping Marty O'Toole win his game. It was a fitting. end in Pittsburg for Leach, because 22,500 fans who watched him for years saw his career in a Pirate uniform come to a glorious close. As this multitude looked on not a soul knew that the Wee, who was ahead of him and coach faltering Pirate rumners. In 11 of the 13 years that Leach was with Pittsburg he made over 100 hits per year, while another year he made 42. In 1900 he was only in 45 games making 34 hits. A pugilistic encounter that had the sanction of many of the professors of America s eldest university was that pulled off in Boston just a quar- ter of a century ago today, October 1, 1887, withIke Weir, the Belfast Spider, and Johnny Murphy as the principals. Weir, who was the first man to hold the featherweight cham- plonship of the world under the Mar- quis of Queensbury rules, was a na- tive of Belfast, Ireland, and at the time he met Murphy had been fight- ing about two years. A few months before he had fought Jack Haviin for eighty rounda in. the woods near Westerly, Johnny Murphy was a native of Boston, although of Hi- bernian descent, and was then in- struetor in boxing at Harvard Uni- versity. The students and many members of the faculty swore by Johnny and believed him to be the greatest little scrapper in the world. The arrangements for the Weir-Mur- phy battle contemplated a fight to finish with three-ounce gloves. Fin- ish scraps were then frowned upon by the Boston authorities, so the af- Determined that the speculators will not grab off-all the choice seats for the world s series games this year as they did in 1911, the National Baseball Commission has just issued an order to the effect that no tickets for any of the games will be sent By taking this who have imtetded to see one or THE PHILADELPRIANS WON Visiting Australian Cricket Team Lost in First Game of Series, (W. A. P.

The total score of the two innings of each team was Philadelphia 259: Australians 257. Baltimore, Md., Oct. 1 The annual meeting of the Association of Military Surgeons of the United States began in this clty to-day with an attendance fair was kept a se*ret. The hall was Well filled when the hour set for the affair arrived, and included in the auiienc e were many Harvard high: Wes Harvard Highbrows Flocked To Fist Fight brows and scores of the ooreiatt ates. The college boys had such faith in their boxing instructor that they manifested a willingness to bet everything they had or ever hoped to own. on the result. It was a case of the old antagonism Between town and gown, and the Boston rts who-had seen the Spider perofrm covered every dollar put up by the Harvard men. Murphy was one of the gamest men that ever entered a ring, and while he was outfought and omtgeneraled by the clever Weir, he refused to-admit defeat. In the sev- enteenth round the police got next to the affair and pulled the club- house. The referee possibly anim- ated by fear of what the college boys might do if aroused called the bout a draw, although it had been plain to all spectators that Ike was the Detter man. As a result of the deci- sion and the police interference, the student backers of Murphy saved their coin Not long after this fight Weir went to Minneapolis and fought Tmmy Warren, who then claimed to be ithe featherweight champion of America. He beat Warren seven ways, but the referee called it a draw. Richard K. Fox, however, considered Ike the victor, and awarded him the championship. belt. A militant Christian who exchanges punches with professional pugilists in the intetvals of teaching a Sun- day School class, looking after his millions, and writing and exploring, is Tony Biddle. Anthony Joseph Drexel Biddle, to give him his com- plete monaker, was born in Philadel- phia thirty-elght years ago today, but there has n er been anything slow about him. He came of a family that had nothing but in the way of coin, and from his youth, by virtue of birth, was numbered among the social elect of Philadelphia. At seventeen he became newspaper reporter, af- ter having absorbed considerable learning at Heldelberg, Germany, and five years later Was editor and owner, of a/newspaper. Always an athlete, Biddle was especially interested in boxing. He has met some of the best heavyweights. in the ring in private and exhibition bouts, among them Robert Fitzsimmons and Philadel- phia Jack O'Brien, who is parti- cular crony of the millionaire, A year or two ago the scraper became an ardent tian, and undertook the teaching of Sunday Bible classes at St. John's Church, but: he didn t give up his pugilistic friends. Not only did he continue to be among those present at moat of the boxing shows in the Quaker City, but he also fitted up his -of physicians and surgeons from the U. 8. army and navy and marine hos- pital service, and the national guard Organizations of numerous states. stable as a boxing arena, where he Pulled off fight matinees for the ben- efit of his Bible class, church mem- bers and ministers. Many clergymen Tony Biddle, 38 Today, Mixes Pugilism and Religion have attended Tony's exhibitions, of the fistic art and have commended his scheme for mixing pugilism and religion. Certain it is that Mr. Bid- dle s class at St. Jobn s Church, which had been an array of empty benches before he took charge, m- mediately responded to-the stimulus and became the biggest class of its kind in Philadelphia. Mr. Biddle s idea is that Christianity as usually preached and practiced,-is too effem- inate to appeal to red-blooded men. His conception of religion is not that it necessitates the abandonment of all mundane pleasures, but the appli- cation of Christian spirit to all such pastimes. Boxing, he declares, teach- Every boy, he asserts, should prac- tice the manly art until he is able to control his temper so that he may tak a stiff jolt to the jaw without saying anything stronger than, My gracious, Mr. Biddlo practices what he preaches, and in the course of his bouts with Jack O'Brien and others has taken a lot of heavy punishment without single cuss word.
