SPORTS NEW YORK GETS PENNAN RECALLING MATHEWSON FROM HIS WEDDING TRIP Brooklyn, Oct. 5—New York clinched the pennant by 'defeating Brooklyn yesterday. Should Chica- go win all its remaining games and the New York team lose theirs, the New Yorkers cannot be overhauled. The game was a pitchers’ duel be- tween Mathewson and Rucker, the latter having been recailed from his wedding trip to pitch. He was to have been married Oct. 12, but the ceremony was advanced to Sunday last. Rucker pitched as well as did Mathewson, but two errors following a hit by Doyle in the fourth inning, were responsible for one tally. Ruck- er retired in the eighth to let Daley bat for him, and New York scored its second yun off Knetzer in the ninth on Devore’s singie. a steal a wild pitch and an infield tap by Snod- grass, The game was further fea- tured by a-triple play in the ninth in- ning, when, with Doyle on second and Snodgrass on first, Murray pop- ped a fly to Stark. A hit and run| play was under way and the run- ners were going full tilt. Stark tossed the ball to Doubert, doubled up Snodgrass, and the triple play was completed when Daubect threw to Tooley, nailing Doyle Brookiyn . .. 2 New York 0 Rucker, p Knetzer and Erwin; | Mathewson and Meyers.

Pitcher Lew Moren of ‘the Cincinnati Reds has not thrown a ball all season, and says he does not intend to. Moren says he is acting entirely upon the advice of “Bonesetter” Reese. He had his arm treated by Reese last winter and the famous surgeon told Moren that he would ruin his agym forever if he attempted to pitch this season. Pitcher Lew Moren. B After next season, Moren saysjhe will retire from baseball for good. He says that he intends to have one good sea- son before he retires-and thinks 1912 will be his banner year. Moren is go- ing to Mexico December 26 and will train until it is time to report to the Reds for the opening of the season. Three Promising Pitchers. The American league has three pitchers this year that came from the Pacific Coast league of last year.

Andy Oyler Dodges Ball, It Hits Bat, 8t. Paul Players Fall to See It and Llittle Shortstop Circles the Bases. Baseball 18 filled with freak plays, ones - that sometimes .bring about seemingly impossible feats. Of course, there’s a lot of fun in them when they go with the home team, but when they're against the home club you bet they're far from funny. Whenever a bunch of ball players gets to talking - baseball something that doesn’t often happen—for the majority of them like to get away from the national pastime as much as possible when they are not’actually in the game—the subject often turns to freak plays of the diamond. One of the freakiest on record happened in Minneapolis some seasons ago. The Minneapolis club had a little sbortstop named Andy Oyler, who was a corking flelder, but wasn't much on the heavy hitting. He was one of the smallest men in baseball, and, to make it worse, when he stood up to the plate he crouched all up in a knot. It was horrible on the pitchers to have to throw to Oyler. One day Minneapolls was playing St. Paul. There was deadly rivairy between the teams, and the game was for blood all the way through. [t had rained the day Uefore the game, and the ground was sopping wet. The base runners.had foundered around | like . chickens with their feet tied. Minneapolis needed one run when it- | tle Oyler came to bat. Andy crouched -down in his peculiar way, and the pitcher wound up. Bing! | He let a hot ome go straight for Oyler’s head. Andy ducked down, bending his knee and leaning his bat over his shoulder. The ball hit m- bat a crack and every one at um park | heard it. Where the ball went no one knew It hadn’t gone up in the air, for the St. Paul catcher was gazing around the sky and wishing for a telescope. The first baseman was looking under the bag to see if the ball got stuck there, the pitcher was shouting unin- telligible things at everybody and the third baseman was accusing the um- pire of standing on the ball. Every one on the St. Paul team was crazy mad. What_was Oyler doing? He was going like a streak of lightning around the bases. Some one in the bleach- ers yelled, “He’s got it in his pocket!” When the second baseman on the St. Paul team heard that he started after Oyler, who had just rounded second on the dead ‘run. Andy had the start, ‘though, and he left the seo- ond -baseman 8o far in the rear’ that people began advising the ‘latter to hire a taxl. Oyler rounded third at top speed and pulled up at the home plate, scoring the winning run. “What are you trying to do?” screamed the catcher. “Gimme that ball! “I ain’t got the ball. There lt i Fight in fromt of the plate.. 1 got & home run on a ball that didn’t go two leet.” Sure enough, there was the ball sticking right in the deep mud in front of the plate. It had gone off Oyler’s bat so quickly that mo one bad seen it land but Oyler. The um- pire, of ‘course, had to allow the bomer, for the ball had hit on fatr ground. The woman is heroic who can look "Wo are assured by Seneca, *| the historlal -Inge, “that there were in ancient Rome who counted; thelr ages not by their years, but by the husbands they bad had. Juvenal tells of one woman who had married eight husbands in five years. Divoree was granted on the slightest pretext. Many separated merely from love of change, disdaining to give any reason like Aemilius Paulus, who -told hiy -friends that ‘he knew bést where his shoes pinched him.” “Rich wives were not much songht after by wise men. Their complets emancipation. made them difficult to manage. Acoerdingly, since both rick and poor wives were objectionable, tho large majority of men never married at all. . In most cases a Roman bride groom knew practically nothing of his e’s character until after marriage. “Marriage for the Roman woman meant a transition from rigid seclu- sion to almost unbounded liberty. She appeared as a matter of course at her husband’s table whether he had com- pany or not. She could go where she Uked, either to the temples of lsis and Serapis or to the circus and am- phitheater. She had her own troops of slaves, over whom she ruled with- out interference.” Romantic Spain. "“Tell me about Spain, romantic Spain.” ““Well,” said the motorist, “there are a few bad places as you come down the mountains, but in the main the roads are pretty good.”—Washington Herald.
