THE MEN S STORE - Where you get the Big Dollar's Worth BIG ADVANCE SALE FOR BAYLEY-ALLAN FIGHT ON SEPT. 4 Record Crowd is to Attend Arena is Just Outside of City Limits. (Special to the News.) Calgary, August 29 The largest crowd which ever attended a boxing bout in Canada will in all probability de present at the battle between Joe Bayley and Billy Allen, which will be sheld here on-the morning of Septem- ber 4th. This was issued Thursday when the advance sale of seats was opened, Within three hours after the sale was opened over a thousand dol- Jars worth of seats liad been sold for cash and telephone and telegraphic orders for as many more had been Yeceived. Because of the demand for Seats no orders from oi of town are Deing considered unless accompanied by cash. The new arena which is being built by Tommy Burns just out- side the city limite nf Calgary will comfortably seat ten thousand People. It is located within about about twenty yards of the street car tracks and good car service has been assured by the leasing of ten muni- cipal cars by Tommy Burns. These cars will be used solely for convey- ing spectators to the bout, a ter min- ute car service being inaugurated. The Sight between Tommy Burns and the Ministerial Association of Calgary, who are bent upon keeping the lid down, will have no effect upon the championship bout. In fact the chances sre now that Tommy Burns will make no further attempt to have the lid im the city lifted, but will devote his energies to. building a Permanent auditorium, on the site, of the arena where-the Stampede wbek Bout is being held. The location there is an deal one and ts juct out- fide the limits of the City of Calgary and therefore outside the jutisdic- tion of the Calgary police. Ina way this will be a benefit to Tommy for the keeping down o fthe lid in the city will serve to give Tommy and his out of town arena a corner on the fight market. New York; August 29.

Really, I couldn't tell you how I hit, I just hit em, that s all I know. It was Speaker speaking the fam- ous Tris Speaker, the man who is the Boss in Boston and trips and cuts up 80 with the bat, It was not modesty, nor any aflec- ted statement on his part but the exact truth. Speaker, though he is as fluent as his name suggests, could no more tell you how he hits em than an armless man can shake dice. For he is the healthiest spcimen of the natural hitter yet discovered. He is a natural fellow, too looks na- tural, acts natural, talks, eats and sleeps just as natural as can be. And when he gets up there with that warclub sa-ay he is just naturally the limit that's all. . Well, that settled it. If Speaker didn't know how to hit, who else aid? Hubbard, a little city town in Texas, 1s where Tris resides when he is home, He decided on that place back. in 1888. We are not sure whether that is the reason Texas is called the Lone Star State or not but it would seem only natural that it should be at the present time. Anyway Speaker just naturally grew up down there in that large airy place, among the steers and sand lots. His boyhood was filled with green apples, spankings and ambitions. Am- bition the same that fills 5,000,000 other little boyhoods in the United States the ambition to become a great ball player Gnd a great pitcher. socuer-the quicker, he argued and devoted all his spare time, and lots of oth r time that was not to. spare, to playing ball. He would rather play ball than eat and generally did. But little Tris had work to do, school to attend, and other duties that life in Texas required of him: This all grated on his ambition, It took his time and his thoughts from Won Special. Another splendid day's racing was enjoyed at the exhibition yesterday and considerable jubilation was in- dulged in over the fact that the track record of 2.13 1-4 was broken twice during the afternoon. The Race Com- mittee o ored a premium of 60 if the record was broken and 100 additional if the mark was lowered to 2.10, That game little mare Alcyfres Went out after the money in the free- for-all and made the second heat in 2.12 flat and the third in 2.12, much to the delight of the. spectators.

So Uttle Tris started early The the game, and anyway doing chores and such about the rench was small time stuf for a, ball player. It s funny why parents never seem to un- derstand genius. Speaker's couldn't They couldn't see little Tris hopes with a telescope. It was different with our hero, though he had fore- sight lke a searchlighta, and even at the early age of ten he could see himself the peer of baseballers, the idol of thousands and, 'er the owner of an atuomobile. So in tline it was an easy matter for Cleburne, in the North Texas League, to put him on the payroll as one of their pitchers, ; Speaker did not last long with Cle- burne, and he lasted even shorter time as a pitcher, for when Tris once got that natural swing to working why he just naturally batted him- self out of the pitchr s box and out of the North Texas League into a better job as a fielder with Houston. During 1907 Triphammer Tris just naturally ruined all the fences in the cireuit, and at the end of the season was leading the hitters grand march 80 far that he never came back. I always could hit, is bis only comment on his bating. Well, when the American League convention met in the spring, Tris on account of his wonderfu influence with a bat, was chosen as a delegate by the Boston Red Sox. Speaker must have been one of those unin- structed delegates we have been read- ing about, for Boston sent him down to Little Rock for a little more in- struction. - He must haye learned fast, for he was soon promoted jback to, the Red Sox, and is now the most learned man on the Boston team and it s quite a cultured team, too, by the way. Speaker is still quite young only 24 and'as his apprenticeship in the bushes was very short, he, still re- taine that youthful interest and en- thusiasm that is so valuable and de- lightful in a player.

There were but three starters in the third race. These were H. E. H. Endicott, Mason Special; F. W. Moe, Ford 1911, and J. W. Warthing - ton with a Herrespoff 20. One of the biggest surprise parties I ever saw pulled off in the ring was sprung back in 1885, with Jack Demp- sey, the middleweight champion. sup- plying the exclamation points, re- marked the Old Sport. Jack bad cleaned up every man of his weight in the East, and had gone to the Pac- ific in search of more pugs to.con- quer. Twenty-seven years agd:,to- night he took on Earl Manning, a Los Angeles man who was considered the best the Coast had to pit against the Nonparlel. The obsequies were held in Turn Hall, at San Frans- cisco. The man from Angeltown had about as much chance as the pro- verbial snowball in Honduras. He took an awful licking, and in the fifth round the police ordered the fight stopped. The fans raised an uproar at this, and the cops finally agreed to let the -affair proceed if larger gloves were used. This was done, but in the seventh the of- ficiais again and finally stopped the massacre. pgey then beat Tom Norton, at nto, in even fewer rounds than it took him to defeat Manning. Having whipped all the middlewelghts, Dempsey challenged the whole Pacific Coast. offering to Tight anybody, regardless of size, with gloves or bare knuckles. The FIRE CHIEF PUGILIST COULDN'T MAKE .GOOD (By Gravy ) challenge reached Portland, Ore. and Dave Campbell, chief of the fire department of that city, took it up. Campbell was a big and six footer who-had-a septation as an amateur box r, and was almost twice as big as Dempsey. The Non- pariel was undaunted by the dispar. ity in size, and the match was made. It was to be a bare knuckle affair for 2,000 a side. Fearing official inter- ference, the fighters and fans took a up the-Columbia to a point in Lewis county, Washington, where the ring was pitched. The big fireman was knocked out by Dempsey in the third round: Practically all of the Portland fans had considered it a cinch for Camp ell and bet their piles on the result at any old odds offered. The whole Portland fire department was assembled at the dcck, upon the return of the boat, and several bands were in readiness to welcome their conquering hero. When they learn- ed that Campbell had lost the people of Portland were plunged-tnto deep - est gloom. A numb r of California sports had gone to Portland to back Dempsey, and they carried home with them about all the loose change in the Oregon city, except such as they spent in the wet goods emporiums in celebration of the victory. Fred J. Wagner, official starter, second intervals, the other twelve cars in the three fet day events were to be semt away. 7 : : In ring battles According, to this arratgement the een acca three races, while separate gud dis- the best man a anime tinct contests, would be run off Sjeally every champion has at some Practically simultaneously. time been defeated, through carcless- it im't always; ered, all of the races are to be fin- ished before last afternoon.

Somers Uncertain of Davis Future Cleveland, O., August 29. Owner C. W. Somers of the Cleveland Base- ball Club fs inclined to think Man- ager Harry Davis was handicapped the past season by poor material and by the luck of the game. He said as much last night when asked whether Davis would be retained for next year. Somers said he didn't care to dis- cuss the Davis matter for the reason that lots of things may happen be- tween now and then when Davis con- tract with the club expires. I don't know what will be done. was Somers indefinite reply to quer- fes regarding the future of the Nap manager. MACK GIVES FIVE FOR TWO PLAYERS who was not. at allin the same class with him.
