irst Baseman of the Rochester team made a triple play unassisted Some twenty years ago Paul Hines of the Providence Nation al League team made a triple play unassisted so it was said at that time but this play has always been a matter of dispute Not since then has any baseball player been able to make a triple play In one of the early innings of to 'day's game Shoch was on second and Mack on first The batter in an at tempt to bunt hit a short in fled fly ran in and caught the ball a few inches from the ground He ran to first base and touched the bag heading off Mack O'Hagan then went on to second which he reached before Shoch who was running fdr third could get back TACBTISG Detroit and Cadillac to Meet in Regatta The Interest created by the victory of the Detroit over the Cadillac in the match race series for $200 at the Tawas bay re gatta last week gives the practical assur ance that these two crack 35 footers will meet again In a short time It is now fettled that both boats will be entered in the sweepstakes races at the Detroit Yacht Club regatta August 30 and they will bo sailed by their managing owners Commo dore Alex McLeod on Detroit and Com modore John Shaw on Cadillac It Is barely possible that they will meet In a match race before this time as there is some little talk of it now but It is more probable that a match race will be sailed off in the regatta Both

effects of the body punches he received as early as the seventh round and plainly lost speed after that round Gardner was very tired in the twelfth and thirteenth rounds but came again In the fifteenth round and utterly disregard ing Root's jabs on his cut and bleeding face put his head between bls shoulders and bored in Root was soon in distress Half a dozen rights and lefts squarely in the pit of the stomach brought him to his knees near the ropes the gong saving him Root went down again in the sixteenth from a left book on the chin which all but put him out The end came in the next round Gard ner paying no attention to swings rushed his man to the ropes planted his left and right to the stomach and Root went down for breath Root got up only to go down again The third time he Struggled to his feet Gardner was on him like a flash He worked his right and left like piston rods on Root's ribs and Root sank slowly to' his knees Then he rolled over on his back and though he was not out was evidently utterly unable to defend himself HW seconds saved him further useless punishment by throwing up the sponge Both men were severely punished Gard ner's left eye and right eye were opened in the seventh round at the same instant and loth men bled freely until the end Root's left hand was shattered in the second round when he landed a left hook on the back of Gardner's head and It was of little use to him as far as punishing power was concerned from that time on The betting before the men entered the ring was 10 to 7 on Root Hart Wins rom Stiff After a Very Bad ight Chicago

showing wag a disappointment as it was expected he would have little trouble in disposing of Stlft Neither man was able to judge distance accurately and the ma jority of the blows delivered went wide of the mark Little damage was done until the fourth round when Hart began to land straight lefts to the face He followed this blow each time with right to the stomach and at the end of the round Stlft was hanging on in the clinches to save himself from defeat The fifth round was tame both men being tired from their ef forts In the last round Stlft 'seemed the stronger of the two but Hart by rough work managed to hold his advantage and was awarded the verdict Neither man was punished to any great extent River Rouge A Will Have our Bouts To night The most pretentious show that the River Rouge A

advance money which distinctly states that the $100 is to be deducted from the 1903 salary gives a grip on which it will be possible to hinge pro ceedings This would probably worry Sebring little if' Dreyfuss agrees to meetthe legal bills Dreyfuss has hitherto kept aloof from the baseball war troubling no players and being troubled bv none Recently the Pittsburg men have been asserting that they
