PITTSBURG EXPECTS MUCH OF ART HOFMAN Artie Hofman, once the idol of Chi- cago Cub fans and considered by many es the best allround player in the major leagues, is expected to strength- en the Pittsburg Pirates materially by the enthusiastic fans of that city. Man- ager Fred Clark, also Is optimistic, and expects his team to climb rapidly to- ward the head. Hofman was the property of the Pittsburg club once before.

Keough, the Chicago sport writer, who wrote under that nom de plume, is dead. Mr. Keough’s place in sport letters ‘was unique. He founded a new school of sporting comment. Many imitated bim. None approached him. He was ‘widely quoted. He was more widely “pirated.” He was gifted gloriously. He knew sport in all its phases as few men have known it. He knew the idiosyn- cracies of sporting men, and for his aglle fancy they were an inexhaustible theme. He keenly watched the entire passing show of sport. He knew its comedies, its tragedies. And, as the poet-philosopher of American sport, he sang his songs and sounded his warn- Ings, exposed the shams and exalted the genuine, and always with inim- itable drollery, He was, as Watterson once sald, the “ever-welcome Hek.” The sport page of American journallsm, whatever its color, is in mourning at his passing~— Bt.

All the members of teams in the Belleville league have gerved not! they will strike, just like the Tigers did, if Henry Ebel plays in any more games, Ebel is the pinch hitter of the Mar ried Men’s nine. The trouble arose in Sunday’s game, when along toward the end Ebel took a good healthy swat at the sphere and it sailed over the heads of the infleld and outfleld. A passing freight train, with a door of a box car carelessly left open, made & clean pick- up of the ball and carried it far away. The game was cealled for two rea- sons, It was the only ball available and it was not available after Ebel's hi Atlanta has released Pitchers Paige end Johns to Montgomery. Larry Cheney i proving himself more than a flash in the pan. Connie Mack evidently has picked np another star in Pitcher Pennock. Artle Hofman, Former Cub, With the Plrates. [t Clarke tells how in 1904 he couldn’t use Hofman, and placed him with the Des Moines club. The understanding was that Hofman was to come back to Pittsburg, but the Des Moines club gold him during the season and the owners didn’t abide by the verbal agreement. While with the Chicago Cubs Hofman filled almost every po- sition on the diamond, being available anywhere.

Demaree Wins Again. Another thirteen-inntng game waé played in the Southern league, this one in Moblile, and it was won by the Gulls from Chattanooga, with Dema- ree pitching. In thirteen innings he allowed five hits. Chapelle pitched a good game for the Lookouts. If Cincinnati Wins Pennant. “What would happen in this town 1t the Reds should happen to win the pennant?” asked one Cincinnati bug. “They’d have to put a rubber roof on Longview,” answered his friend be- tween [rantic cheers.
