Dillon of Pittsburg has been released to Detroit. He should strengthen the Wolver- ines, as he Is one of the best minor league first basemen in the business. The Pittsburg papers have been making fun of the New York team and advising Magnate Freedman to get better players. With a first-class twirler added to the Giants’ pitching staff, the team has the Pirates “faded in seven out of the nine position: ‘orge Shock, the veteran base ball play- er and ex-Senator, is now managing and playing with the Athletic club of Philadel- phia, a member of the Atlantic League. George is reported to be playing like a two-year-old in the field and batting well. Demontreville is playing an exceptional game with Brooklyn this season. He has been placed at third, second and short, and in all three positions he is leading the league. At the bat Gene is hitting away over the .300 mark and is happy. The early success of the St. Louis team resulted in its friends calling them “Te- beau's Terrors,” but since the fall down to fourth place they are now called ‘Tebeau's Tarriers,"’ and a perusal of the list of play- ers would seem to make this a very appro- priate ttle. The Cincinnatis are playing “Baltimore ball” at"present and hugging second place very Ught. Bob Allen has whipped his men into shape and they are taking all sorts of chances on the bases, fielding well and hit- ting at opportune times. Errors are not commented on, but let one of the Reds make a stupid play and a hearty call-down follows. ‘The court at Indianapolis yesterday grant- ed a divorce and $1,000 alimony to Mrs. Rusie, wife of Amos Rusie, the base ball pitcher. A bleacherite at the Polo Grounds caused a hearty laugh in the second inning of Wednesday’s game: Maul was taking his time in pitching, when some one yelled: “Wake up, Maul! You're in New York now.” In St. Louis they are betting even money that the Perfectos will beat out the Pitts- burgs. If brains count for anything the gentlemen holding the St. Louis end of the bet can go out right now and spend the money.—Cincinnati ‘Pimes-Star. A St. Louis critic places Pitchers Cuppy, ‘Weyhing, Hughey, Knepper, Thomas and Jones in the “dead jones” category. This is rather hard ‘on™ first two named, and shows that the Perfectos’ pitching staff is not over popular at,home. Do you*know-whp is the pitcher the awful fears most of the lot that have tried to take his measure? Well, it’s modest, lithesome Winnie Mercer. Del him- self admits that ‘he’ has never hammered any of Mercer's flings out of the diamond, and it wasn't because he hasn't tried pretty hard, either, “{< Manager Ewiig has been authorized by Andrew Freedman to obtain any players that are available to strengthen the New York base ball team.

Ewing has notified Ruste that he is ex- Pected to join the New York team when it reaches Chicagg Next week. There is every reason to believe that Rusie will be there. An amusing Incident wh h called forth a roar of laughter from the bleachers oc- curred in the eighth inning of Thursday's Cornell-Princeton game on the grounds of the latter, when Whinery, Cornell's catcher, while chasing a high foul, suddenly found himself locked In the embrace of a digni- fied member of the faculty. who had ven- tured to trespass beyond the side lines.

The former are mostly of the French cafe order, in which chess, draughts and M. P. Fitzsimmons, a se A eR a ss You haven't got to spend your life in a business nowadays in order to make it a success. That was never more plainly demonstrated than in our case. We have jumped right in to the biggest tailoring business a man would have any right to expect in years, ac- cording to the old theory. It's only a question of giv- ing the people what they want and asking them the lowest consistent price for it. We look at tailoring from the standpoint of art. Our method of cutting is simple, but complete, and ac- complishes its object thoroughly. We don't claim to know it all, but we do claim to know sufficient to place us high among the many intelligent tailors of the country. We cater to the dres: wing men of ‘Washington from their standpoint. 7 A new acquisition to our cutting department has ‘been another of our growing necessities. It is our ob- ject to place at your service the most intelligent minds that money can command, and we have just put to - work another cutter who ranks as a leader among the artists of his craft.

The English kind of clubs, or the other hand, as a rule, present quite a contrast to the foreign method of en- Joying the game, inasmuch as with them chess is made more of a mathematical study than a mental recreation, as it should be, a monastic silence being observed during play in the English clubs. “In our American clubs, however, a hap- py medium 1s generally the rule, and the royal game is not only enjoyed for its subtiet jt maneuvers and its opportuni- ties for ‘victory In a battle of strategic skill, but also for the combination of chess siudy with social recreation, which a well- managed American chess club affords. Then, too, we have our American chess co- teries, in which a few choice spirits gather at each other's houses for chess and socla- bility combined; these latter little clubs be- ing very enjoyable affairs, indeed. “For myself, I dislike both those ex- tremes, viz., the clubs which go in for the classics of the game and make it an ardu- ous mental study, to be accompanied by the silence of a party of monks telling their beads, and that other extreme, the Babelistic noise and confusion of the pub- He chess divan or cafe.

Joe Walcott, the “Black Demon,” won from his old rival, Mysterious Billy Smith, last night. For twenty-five rounds the men fought fast and furiously be- fore a goodly crowd at the Broadway Athletic Club, New York. Walcott led from the first round and forced the fighting so rapidly that odds were freely offered that Smith would not last the limit. But the mysterious fighter showed old-time form and fought back gamely throughout the contest.
