DOPE
THURSDAY MORNING
We received so many Inquiries as
to why bets on the Gotch-Haoken-
schmldt bout were called orf that we
wired to Referee Ed W. Smith on
the subject a.id received the follow-
ing message In reply:
Sporting Editor Phoenix, Musko-
gee: All beta ofT on request police
and owner of park where bout was
held. Ed W. Smith. Referee. Just
what effect this will have on local
bets we are unprepared to say al-
though Mr. Smith says plainly ALL
bets oft.
"Ah done tole you nlggahs, dey
wan1 nuffln" to it but de Tar Baby.
shouted a hilarious son of Ham
Tuesday night when the returns from
the Langford-Jeannette fight were re-
ceived at the office of the Phoenix
and an anxious crowd of friends
both parties among the colored pop-
ulation were awaiting outside with
breathless interest. "Well nlggah,
hyars dat six bits what seems to
been worrying you to def all night, |
answered the loser as the crowd
started <Jown toward Second street to
spread the news.
Just now that the sports of Okla-
homa are recovering from the poor
; showing made by Hackenschmldt
against Gotch, but are awakening In
due time to cast a longing optic to-
ward our erstwhile "hope,
Morris, former knight of the locomo-
tive on the Frisco l.ne. What.do
j you think about it? we "ked
many times every day. Right here w York
I we desire to fatate as we have before rhloag„ .
I that Morris, unless he had chosen J Pittsburg
Now listen. If Morris licks Flynn
he will liav* the best chance of any
man living to tafce the measure of
Jack Johnson, and there Jou have
our opinio*.
According to 'those on the Inside
who have a right to get a line on
sufch matters, the Cubs are sorel>
broken up in th* infield over the loss
of Johnny Evers. who they say was
not only the life but the brains of
the Chicago infield. The loss of the
Tr0v plavr, it is also said, removes
the' ginger Jar which Is giving the
Giants so decided a lead.
Chirawo had Matters much their
own way yesterday inasmuch as it
was an off clay at New York and the
Pittsburg's Just broke even with the
lowl* Cincinnati's. Chicago defeated
the Cardinals 9 to 0.
Connie Mack's bunch of Athletics
continue to win and it does Just
seem as if the big doings would be
between the Phlladelphiateam of
the American's and the New York
Giants. However, that "many a slip
•twlxt cup and lip" story is never
old.
Larry O'Toole, should anyone ask
you. Is certainly proving about the
best investment Mr. Dreyfuss has
made in many a day albeit he cost
some $$22,500. Mr. O'Toole. (If you
please) wof. his third game for the
Pirates yesterday.

"Why Is It." asks a New York
sorlbe, "that there are nearly twice
us many SO* hitters In th« American
league hs In tho National? Is it "e-
caues of the batters, the °r
the scorers?"' From the fact that
the Nationals generally win the
world's series It rather looks as
though the pitchers and scorers are
responsible for the high averages in
the Junlon organization.
Evidently the writer from New
York overlooks the Cobbs. Jackson s.
end many flft.tr stars In various posi-
tions—stare not equalled In the Na-
tional or elder league and also evi-
dently he is a National partisan,
otherwise he would not out slur, on
the poor unpaid and much abused
official scorer who has troubles
enough with the players to sa>
nothing of the scriber.

It for a taxi-cab and a swell room.
Furnish them with a meal ticket nt

starve to death. They have been
brought up In the lap of luxury and
cannot accustom themselves to other
habits. Charity Is not for them for

be mentioned, but this Is enough.
