Flag Dope, A ball club, upon a general average, is suppcsed to reach its true form by first of July. Werking on this ¢ dope, the best clubs in the Na- tional league are Erooklyn and Bos- ten. They have played more con- sistent ball than any other rival, with Titisburg and Philadelphia close be- hind. While both Giants and Cubs are still upon the edge of the main high- way, ncither has yet put upon display any consistent flag winning stuff. So in the September drive tne four clubs named above are the oncs to be listed as leading contenders Comparative Power. How do these four clubs compare? There isn’t much to choose among the catchers. Bostor ana Pittsburg have the better infields. There isn't a ranking outfield in the bunch. In the y of pitching power Brooklyn carries a greater aggregate of class, with Boston next. Pittsburg #nd Philadelphia are forced to bank in the matn upon two star slabmen— Lamaux and Alexander. This porticn of the dope stands pro in the. rccords.

Col Bo-th Tarkington and Old Irv Cobb arc fairly well content when they draw $1,500 for a short story—a that requires two wecks' hard and which, when finished, brings delight to many millions. Shortly as we understand it Packey McFarland and Mike Gibbons ate to draw down $1,600 apiece, also .00 for three minutes spent in iepping deftly a rivar gobboon, streaked perhaps with a bit of claret. Each one of these is to get in three minutes—one round—as much as Tarkington and Cobb can expect to get for two weeks' work. And yet we are observing with amazement and pity Europe's decline from sanity. If it could be proven that McFar- iand is at his best form—is capable of travelling at the speed he knew when in continued training—a Fackey-Mike meeting would entice | any number of non-combatants within lamping distance.
