UFFALO won the second game of the season yesterday by again defeating Montreal by the score of 4 to 3. The Bisons put up a good game of ball, but until the eighth inning the best they could do as tie the score each time the Royals got a run across the plate.

In the eighth, with the score a tie, McManus picked out one he liked and drove it to center; field. Meany got in front of it, but it bounded through bis legs, ana rolled to the center field fence, while McManus made the circuit and scored the winning run. JBotli Milligan and McCarthy pitched good ball, but the Buffalo boy had the Detter of the argument, as far as allowing his was concerned. Murphy, Brown and Hill, the new Bisons, nlaved a good game and as yet last year's stars nave not been missed. Montreal has a good team, and because two games have been lost does not mean that the team Is slow.

At times they put up a fast and snanny game, and if McManus hit in the eighth naa not oounaea past Meany, the Bisons might not have been bo fortunate as to win. BUFFALO. Gettman, f. Hill. 1.

They come to America heralded in a few short paragraphs as great men in their line of business and a few hours later wake up to find themselves really famous, for the up-to-date newspapers of America do not hide away news which really Is free advertising. If they find out that Jt will Interest their readers. As a result all of the big newspapers of the country give up from five to ten columns a day devoted exclusively to sport and sporting topics. The owners of these newspapers hire the best men obtainable at this branch of newspaper work and many of the metropolitan sheets employ- from four to eight men at this one branch.

They engage expensive photographers to take any and all kinds of pictures. They employ experts In the engraving and cut-making departments and the whole thing adds up a pretty penny for which baseball owners and boxers and wrestlers, and in fact, every other sporting class of men do not contribute one penny out of every $100 spent, although after a few puffs In the papers, a score or so of pictures and personal boosting from live press agents and accepted by up-to-date sporting editors because even as ridiculous as some of the stories 'are they are sure to Interest a large -number of their 'readers, these athletes really believe that they are deserving of all the praise handed them and that they could easily get along without newspaper support. But LET THE NEWSPAPERS OF" THE UNITED STATES TOMORROW DROP JIM JEFFRIES OR GEORGE HACKENSCHMIDT, THE LEADERS AMONG THE TWO MOST MANLT OF SPORTS. AND IN TEN DATS TIME, TES. A WEEK.

BOTH OF THEM WOULD BE FORGOTTEN. And this- leads up to the Russian Lion, who yesterday informed the Olympic Athletic Club of Buffalo that the only night he could wrestle here would be on the 6th of next month, which falls on a Saturday a bad night generally for sporting events, as so many stores keep open that night that do not keep open on other nights and a number of employes who would attend a contest of this kind at other times cannot go that night. But Hackenschmidt said that was the only night he could visit Buffalo, or, for that matter, any other city, and as Buffalonians very much interested in this greatest of athletes, and as he will either 'have won or lost two nights before with Jenkins, there is sure to be a crowded house that night, especially as Concert Hall, in the central part of the city, has been engaged as the place where the match will take place. 33 4 9 27 14 2 A B.

April 28. Manager Al Her-ford, president of the Eureka Athletic and SociaJ Club received a telegram from Young Corbett yesterday stating that his bout with Eddie Hanlon. which was scheduled to take place on the coast in a week or so, had been cancelled, and that he was ready to take on the winner of the Kid Sullivan-Harry Lewis bout, which is billed before the Eureka Club for fifteen rounds tonight at the 4th Regiment armory hall. The Corbett telegram caused a good bit of interest In the- coming match. Another fact that surprised the local followers of pugilistic doings Is that in his telegram to Impresario Al, he stated that he was ready to take on the.

winner for fifteen rounds. From this It appears as if Corbett is decidedly sincere in the matter, for unless so he would scarcely ask for a bout of longer duration than ten rounds. Both Iewis and Sullivan continue their aggressive training. AMERICAN LEAGUE Clubs. W.

No doubt the 'Rochester athletes will work hard to overcome the point wherein they virtually lost the last meet the hih kick but the local men have also the advantage of training and of rectifying weak points so that on both sides the competition will be keen and close.

They claim that Tom Sharkey Is the most jealous athlete in New York City. Of course, much of the matter written about the Irish in the past; has been in the way of Jokes, and Sharkey is smart enough to appreciate the fact that even If it is at his personal expense, that the-advertising that he receives from all 'over America in th newspapers is something.

he could noi purchase for. his hotel and, saloon business If he cared to go business offices of the papers way ridicule him. For instance, the day a big metropolitan stated that ever since Hackenschmidt came to town, Mr. Sharkey has beer worried. Someone told himirthat Hack' shoulders were wider, and that if Sharkey could Jump into the Russian's skin he would rattle around like s) dried pea In a pod.

There Is Just one tninrthat makes Thomas morbid. and'thaC is the fear that some fellow will appear lorai day. who will make him look 'small. Until he saw Hack, therefore, Shar-key was on pins and needles. as the saying goes.

One day Hack, having -heard of Thomas Sharkey and his muscular to. compare notes. Hack and Sharkey stood side by side, wnue tney taiiceo there was every appearance of frank and open mutual admiration, but a close observer might have noticed that each furtively sized the other up. While true Japanese courtesy prevailed, there was enough electricity in the alt. to make things interesting.

Sharkey told how he had put out Gus Ruhlln and Mexican Pete Everett with a single fearful wallop both of them taller and bigger than Hack. Mr. Hackenschmidt related with an off hand Jovial manner his various encounters with the gigantic Turks, and deplored the strenuous tug with -which he had broken Madrall's arm. "So sad," said Hack. "I did not want to hurt him.

but who would think that a little push like that would snap his elbow?" After Hack's departure Tomai In a pensive mood. Even the merry tinkle ol the cash register failed to arouse him.

It Is aror 'excute, and not as good as If he had kept quiet, for O'Brien does not need the.money, as he a rich man. and he should have forfeited if he was not in shape to do. battle.

Recently one of those self-satisfied who imagines that anything not with the British mark blown into it is worth a continental something or other, criticized sport in Canada. He happened to read about a mixup a lacrosse match across the border where a number of the players and the spectators used their fists pugi-listically instead of the clubs "la-crosstlcally," and he immediately sat himself down and wrote a long article trying to show that nothing so disgraceful as that could possibly have happened in the tight little isle. He roasted the Canadians and he slobbered all over himself and his English pals until it became so wearisome that sporting writer on the Toronto Globe thought be would do a little investigating on his own account about "sport" as it is enjoyed In England. Here is the result of his investigation and as reported in hi3 paper: When I quoted from English papers a few days ago to show that human nature is much the same the world over, and men lose their tempers elsewhere than at Canadian sports, a loyal Englishman offered the opinion that this was clear proof of the deterioration of the sporting spirit In Canada. that the matches at which this reprehensible conduct took place were only those of the rougher classes, and further, he could not find two of the places named on his map.

Perhaps hS will srfy that a semi-final for the Scottish Cup is also a fixture engaging the attention of the rougher classes, but he can hardly point to It as an obscure affair, nor will he be able to find a map which does not show Glasgow. Well, here is the London Express story of what happened at that fixture two weeks ago Saturday: "Extraordinary scenes in- which "referee baiting' and stand-up fights In the field played a prominent, part, occurred towards the close of the Scottish Cup semi-final match between Celtic and Rangers at Celtic Park, Glasgow, on Saturday. There was a crowd of 30.000 people, and partisan feeling. Intense from the first, rapidly increased with every passing moment. A decision given by Mr.

Tom Robertson, the referee, adverse to the home side, aroused the hostility of the great mass the onlookers. When, shortly afterwards, Quinn of the Celtic, was ordered to the pavilion for rougm play, the angry passion of the mob burst out In unrestrained fury. Hundreds stormed the fences, rushed at the referee, and surrounded the Rangers players. The threatened men managed to force their way through the crowd to the pavilion, and, order being eventually restored, the game was begun again. Three minutes later the crowd again broke in, and the referee was again hustled and assaulted.

He was. however, rescued by the comparatively small body of police that was attendance. Meanwhile, free fights were common, but It was decided that the game must be abandoned, the Celtic agreeing to award the unfinished tie to their opponents. The selection of the Scottish team to face England in the Association football match was postponed in consequence of the riot." And this was on a. ground surrounded by iron railings seven feet high, adds the Globe.

On the same day the referee In the other seml-flnal. between Third Lan ark and Alrdrieonians. was assaulted by spectator, who was taken in charge by the police, on. ves. tney are so mucn better than U3 "at home!" We have a lot to learn in the way' of decency and moderation, it strikes me that we have been advised to go to the wrong school.

And. speaking of fair play. did you ever notice how readily some people discern the "degrading features of sport?" A row such as above described calls out unstinted condemnation of the sport lt- seir. xne Tact mat suen a aemonstra-tion is diametrically opposed to everv maxim and teaching of sport Is Ignored by the critics. These things are not "features of sport." They are evidences of the weakness of human nature, which sport is calculated to curb and restrain and cure.

They occur In connection with every field of human endeavor, and men quarrel as fiercely over divisions in relig ion as tney an over their sympathies and interests in sport. In the very same issue of The London Express which de scribed the battle at Celtic Park I find the following: "The Scotch Church dispute taken very- seriously at Auchterarder, In West Perthshire. The keen antagonism between the United Free Church and the "Wee Frees' resulted on Sunday evening In a disgraceful scene. "For some weeks the Wee Frees' have been holding meetings at Aytoun Hall. Some disturbance occurred a week ago.

but-on Sunday night matters came to a climax "A crowd over 600 in number, composed mainlv of adherents of the United Free Church, jrathered outside the hall, end as the little congregation of 'Wee Frees' dispersed mobbed them. 'Amid the loud groaning and hisidng the Wee Frees' were Jostled and hustled in an alarming manner. Many stones were several members of the congregation sustained minor injuries." This leads the Globe man to again remark that: To be consistent the critics should include this among "the degrading features of religion" They will not do so, and very properly. The outbreak was not a "feature" of religion, and it would be Just as dishonest and unfair to attribute such a disgraceful occurrence to religion as it is to attribute a like affair on the football field to sport. But in the eagerness of a portion of the community to discredit sport there is no room for fairness and honesty.

N. April 2S, 1905. Sporting Editor Enquirer: In a recent issue of one of the Buffalo papers the Prospect Roller Polo team takes exception of the Frisco Roller Polo team claiming the championship of New York State. Now there are very few roller- nr. lr teams in the State now and it is my candid opinion that the Frisco team is the best.

We have never met defeat and have played but one game which was with Prospect team. Any one who caw the eame will say (even players on Prnciwrt team) that two of the Pros pects' goals were very questionable. For instance Young of the Prospects had put near FrlCOS goal aim nu uaiu everybody.

JAMES J. MEAGHER. Turanaer Frisco Polo Team. What They Brought Back. According to the New Tork Telegram, here is what the New York Giants brought back with them to the metropolis after three-strenuous games in Philadelphia, where they were mobbed again and again by the baseball crowds One pound of sand, poured down "Mike" DonHn's wishbone.

One lump of flesh, grown in thirty seconds on the back of Frank Bowerman's head. One brick with- jagged edges. Another brick with serrated edges. A third brick with edges all around. A potato somewhat the worse for wear, evidently having' seen better days.

An egg carefully removed from the shell. Another egg not carefully removed from the shell. Traces of eggs removed from carriage cushions and elsewhere. A thickened and coagulated hand attached to the arm of one "Bill- Gilbert. Happy recollections of the birthday PMifd surprise as to why Philadelphia Is termed a quiet city.

Other bricks interlaid with paving Gavlv colored standards of court- i plaster. I ne resi wisnes i police force for many happy returns of the day. Jugs of witch hazel with stoppers removed. A cabbage somewhat underdone ana OOIT. Mud of various strata.

at least of enough importance to be represented in some league or association by a professional baseball club, is simply dippy these days. The great American game ha such a place In the hearts of all Americans that never will there be an out-door sport which will oust it and take its place. The great crowd which turned out in this city Wednesday last to witness the opening game between thMontreai and the Bisons proves conclusively that Buffalo, represented by a winning team. Is one of the best baseball cities in the country. This brings up an argument which haa been going the rounds of the public press of the country as to what kind of a ball player Is the most successful, therefore, the most valuable to a team.

It has been discussed pro and con and everyone appears to have a different Idea of the kind of player who Is the best. However, the following from the pen of Frank Selee. manager of the Chicago National League team appears to the writer to be the best of all: "It's the man who runs out every hit. who ts always on edge and wideawake, that appears to have luck. Whenever the opposing team makes a misplay even if such a thing happens only twice in a.

whole season he is in a position to take advantage of it and gets a base, scores or, perhaps, wins a game, where the ordinary player who doesn't work all the time is unprepared for the mis- play and falls to turn It to his team's account. "Baseball is a funny game, but. like every other game, good luck comes to the team that is always playing Its hardest. Even if a team does not win the pennant, if it can say at the end of the season that it took full advantage of every misplay of opposing teams you can bet that it finished right up with the leaders."
