Fiene struck out ten men in the first con- test and his pitching gave Kansas City an easy victory. Bunched hits off Link in the first and third in- nings of the second game won that contest for the locals. The second game was called at the end of the eighth inning, owing to the darkness.

James pitched fine ball, while Dougherty and Cutting also pitched in great style. Marshall was hanished from the game by Umpire Owgns in the second inning for dis- puting a decision, while Eddinger or- dered Dougherty out in the seventh. b2 A 0 Milwaukee Dougherty, Cutting and Marshall, Schalk; James and Carisch. Minneapolis, Sept. 20.—Minneapo- lis lost one of the weirdest contests ever staged in this city yesterday to Louisville. The Colonels took a big lead early in the game, but a rally by the Millers in the ninth was only stopped when Whalen tried to stretch a single and was nabbed at second. Cravath got his 25th home-run of the season, tieing the big league record held by John Freman. R.

Dauss relieved, and, after being hit hard for two innings, settled down and al- lowed but two hits. Cooper was knockeé out of the box by St. Paul, Liebhardt taking his place.

A sensational ninth inning rally ended in the farce in St. Louis’ favor. Pitchers Stand- ridge, Camnitz and Dale and Utility Player Reed made their debut with the home team. Second Baseman Kirke of New Orleans played his first major league game with Boston. The second game was called off to allow Boston to catch the train for Pitts- burg. 8t Louls ui.uiconinsie 3 22 2 Boston .

Cincinnati, Sept. 20.—Brooklyn won the opening game of the series here yesterday from Cincinnati in a ninth inning rally in which Brook- lyn knocked Gaspar out of the box and treated Smith with the same kind of baseball, which netted the team three runs and gave it a two- run margin at the finish. Compton was retired after the first five men that faced him had reached first. Steele was hit hard in the fifth and also retired. Rucker was taken out to allow Daly to bat for him, and the latter made a hit that started the ninth inning rally.

DOOOOOOODPOOO®OO & BASEBALL NOTES. & POOOOOOOOPOOOO Clarence Owens, the best umpire in the American Association, will work in the National league next season. The American league has 30 men hitting for .300 or better, and the National league has 17 in the select list. Pitcher Wolfgang, of the Lowell New England league champions, won 27 out of 32 games pitched this sea- son. He has been signed by the St. Louis Americans. “Germany” Schaefer is spoken of as the next manager of the Washing- ton team. Schaefer has played great ball at first base for the Nationals this season. Vean Gregg, of the Cleveland Naps, continuves to hold his own and will no doubt finish the season at the top of the list of winning pitchers in the | American league. The Texas league race was a cork- Austin won the pen- nant with a percentage of .575 and Oklahoma City finished seventh with a percentage of .480. Last year Danville won the YVir- ginia league pennant and Petersburg finished last. This season conditions are reversed, with Peterburg at the top and Danville in the cellar. Only the difference of one game lost separated Springfield and Bridge- port at the close of the Connecticut league season. Springfield landed the muslin, with Bridgeport second. The Louisville team will make a great barnstorming trip this fall. Af- ter playing in Philadelphia, New York and Brooklyn, the Colonels will leave for the Pacific Coast, where they play ten games before leaving for.Japan.

SPECTACLES AN AID Poor Batting Is Attributed to Weak Eyes. Prominent New York Doctor and For mer Yale Player Suggests Use of Artificial Eyes to In- crea Hitting. In view of the statements of Me- Graw, Duffy, Murray and others that the main cause of bad batting is bad eyes, and that all recruits should have their eyes examined fn the epring, a prominent New York doc- tor and formerly a Yale player, who asks that his name be withheld, has written the following rather interest- ing article on the subject for the “Nothing to me s more pathetlo than to see how uniformly a baseball player goes into the discard around the age of 40, particularly as regards his batting. A patient of mine last week told me that he wears cpectac- les when he is batting. One Satur- day he did not wear them and struck The following Saturday he wore them when batting only until he got to first base. Out of six times at the bat he got one pop fly to the infield, a base on balls, two singles, a double| “I have never batted since I have put on spectacles, but I captained my prep school team before I went to| Yale.

My astigmatism, as 1t turned out, distorts objects, so that a pitched ball would look lower to me than it really was; hence the above result. “Would it not be possible as an ex- periment to take some broken-down outflelder whose batting has already fallen off, or some pitcher who bats poorly, and try how well he bats by simply wearing spectacles until he My friend Yaw-| key of the Detroit club says that a a man's eyes if he wore spectacles, but by building heavy rim ones noth: ing would happen even if they were| hit, and 1t would-be no more difficult to keep from getting hit in the spec tacles than to keep from getting hit in the eyes. I think that some man who feels that he is a ‘has been' might be willing to try it.” STAHL WANTED BOSTON TEAM Former First Baseman Is Said to Have Been McAleer’s Partner In Recent Negotiations. J. Ed Grillo declares that Jake Stahl, former first baseman of the Bostons and now a prosperous Chf cago banker, was interested with Jim McAleer in the movement to buy the Boston American league club. Stahl represents considerable wealth, and Jake Stahl. whife he does not intend to play ball any more, he would like to have an interest in the Boston club. From all that can be learned there is not much chance of Taylor selling out this year, though there is a chance of something being done with him after the present season closes. Stahl has a double purpose of wanting to invest in the Boston club. In the first place it could be figured as a rebuke for Taylor, with whom he has not been on speaking terms for some time, and then any money in- vested in that club would pay hand- some dividends. Two Veterans Let Down. Jiggs Donohue and Jake Beckley, two former big leaguers and left- handed first basemen, have slid a little further down the toboggan. Jiggs has been released by the Gal- veston (Tex.) team and Beckley has been given his walking papers aa manager of the Hannibal team. ‘The Naps still have a chance to get revenge on the Cincinnatl Reds for the way they were treated in tho se- ries for the“thamplonship of the state last fall. The management of the two clubs are now considering the propo- sition to have the two clubs meet; again this fall for the supremacy of Ohlo. A definite decislon will be reached later. ENTERING PORT ARTHUR. It s 8omething Akin to 8a Through a Picture Frame. Getting into the harbor of Port Ar- thur is something llke an Alice in ‘Wonderland trick. One sails through a . pleture frame-the rocky’ bluffs at the mouth, barely wide enough for a stout ship to squeeze through without lacing—wondering how there can be room for a ship to anchor between the frame and the picture itself, a small hamlet somewhat Swiss or Norweglan In homelikeness. But once behind the frame the wonderland unfolds. The small basin of water becomes a lake- llke body. delightfully protected be- hind sheltering cliffs. The little ham- let reaches out into two big towns, one on either side. The old town to the east contains the older Russian buildings. barracks, storehouses and the like. Here also now are the small Japanese shops and the poorer classes of Japanese dwell- ings, semi-Japanese in construction, with the ramshackle Chinese quarter on \he outskirts. The new town to-the west s an open. modern European or American tesidence section, bullt largely by the Russians in the palmy days. imposing government buildings erected by the Japanese, a hospital, a shady park and a well run modern hotel. — New Or- leans Y'imes-Democrat. MARINE JUNKMEN. Carrier Snails Load Their Backs With All Sorts of Refuse. The carrier snail is to the sea what the junkman is to the land. It re- ceives its name from its habit of car- ing {rying foreign objects on its back. Nothicg comes amiss to the carrier snall if it is not too big. Castoff shells of small mollnsks, bits of broken coral, tiny stones and even fragments of broken glass dropped overboard from passing vessels are cemented firmly ta the edges of the growing shell, vor iz this curions creature satisied when the shell is completely covered, but coutinues to udd to its collection by fustening vew pleces to the old ones already piled upon its back until it is 0o longer able to move beneath its bur den. As it Is an inhabitant of tropical wa- ters swarming with voracious -fish, crabs, ete., there Is method in its mad- ness. Its hungry enemies pass it by, unable to distinguish it from the rocks and shells on the sea bottom. Some of the snails show a preference for tiny pebbles all of one shape and equal size. others accumulate only shells of one kind, and one picked up off the coast of Japan had its portable house entire- ly roofed with glass.—New York Press. Curious Anticipations. Many peculiar - anticipations have been clted against patent applications. At one time a congressman took the patent office a lock invented by one of his rural constituents. The lock was an esact copy of a lock figured in “Price on Locks,” showing the lock used on a gate of ancient Thebes, thou- sands of years before Christ. The con- gressman, aftér ekamining the fllustra- tion which was shown him by one of the officers, exclaimed that be didn’t care who that fellow in Thebes was— he certainly stole it from his constitu- ent. On another occasion an applica- tion for a patent was filed for a Hower basket whose construction correspond- ed in detail with the Scriptural descrip- tion of the ark in which Moses was placed in the bulrushes, which we are told In the second chapter of Exodus was an ark of bulrushes daubed with slime and with pitch. This is alse probably the first recorded instance of a re-enforced concrete structure.—Sci- entific American. Books and Beeches. At a sale in New York a bibliophile | sald: “Book 1s a word that comes from the German buche, or beech. But what connection has a book got with a beech? I'll show you." The bibliophile led the way to a su- perb Caxton that had just been sold for $3.800. “This volume, you see,” he said. “Is bound in boards—not pasteboards—real boards, beech boards. That is how all books were bound when printing be- gan. Yes, when printing began in Ger- many. each incunabulum, or early book, was bound in buche—in beech boards balf an inch thick, covered per- haps with leather, tipped and clasped with brass and studded with precious ar semi-preclous stones.” PEEVISH children are sick children. - Don’t be cross and slap or scold them.
