Win Game From Rangers Which Gives Them Pennant. The Hardware City league came to a close Saturday afternoon at Wat- nut Hill Park, and the Colliers grab- bed the gonfalon by virtue of their defeat of the Rangers after a hard fought battle, score 3 to 0. The same was closely and interest was at fever heat throughout the contest. The Pi- rates who were looked upon early in the season as an easy winner joined with the rooters for the Rangers in an effort to get the ‘“goats” of the Colliers, but the more noise they made the faster the Colliers played, and many in the crowd who Wwere classed as neutrals, were pleased at the outcome of the result. Beckman and Hinchliffe the oppos- ing twirlers had a battle royal throughout the game, the former al- lowing the losers six hits but they were of a scattered nature, while his teammates garnered five making them count at crucial moments. Some spectacular fielding was con- tributed by both teams, the most sensational being a catch by Briddy in centerfield. Woods at third base had a busy day, accepting six hard chances with- out the semblance of an error. In the first game the Pirates just managed to nose out the Tigers by the score of 5 to 4.

If any one month is to be selected as the prize sport month on the calendar September wins by 19 furlongs plus 7 leagues and 11 kilometres. This is about all that will happen through the September ahead: 1. Stretch battle in the National league. 2. Same in the American. 3. Same with the Feds. 4. Lawn tennis championship at Forest Hills. 5. Amateur golf championship at Detroit. 6. McFarland-Gibbons $80,0000 (split.) battle for No other one month has had so such sporting stuff packed away within its brief temporal confines. Four championships in four different lires will be determined, and in each case the field Is better matched, among 1he leaders, than it has ever been Lefore. So it will be‘a thin-blooded citizen who doesn’t absorb some variety of thrill before the next thirty days have passed. For in adition to all this, there may be another cham- plonship melee opened—viz., America ve. Germany. Maxims of the 19th Hole. My son, when the niblick getteth too hot to handle and the score mounteth beyond 100, then shalt thou wonder at what is called “the lure of golf.” For verily those with wracked rerves seek solace in a game that would rendl apart the nerves of an iren mule. Through the West. As the four western clubs in the National league are practically out of ihe runing—barring another cluster of miracle matter—the race is to be de- cided by the road ability of three clubs —Philadelphia, Broklyn and Boston. The Braves are the better road club of the three, and unless Broklyn re- verses her entire foreign policy, the 1wo clubs more than likely to take pessession of the closing stages of the stretch are Boston and Philadelphia. As things stand just now, these two will be the ultimate contenders. So far these two clubs have played cighteen games. Of the eighteen FPhiladelphia has won twelve and Bostox six. So the Phillies owe their present margin to past ability at cur- tailing the Braves. In the closing days of September and the first two days of October the Phillies invade Boston, and this series may decide the most spectacular pennant race in Na- tional league history. If the Phillies and Braves are runing neck and neck when this closing series arrives Moran is sure to hurl Alexander against the Bostonian entry in at least two games. We doubt very much that the Phillies can open a gap of more than four games over the Braves in the next month. Pat Moran’s job will consist loi keeping fairly level with Stallings Grantlend Rice thirough September until this final melee in Boston arrives, when he will have a chance to win through the work of Alexander, the only slabman in either league with a chance to win thirty games before the finish. But the Braves, once under full steam again, with a whiff of that world series kale in their nostrils, will be no easy clan to hold in check with over thirty days to g0. ANNEX DEFEATS WINDSOR, The Annex of this city defeated the ‘Windsor team at Windsor Saturday in an exciting ten-inning game, by the score of 11 to 7. The Windsor team was in the lead, 5 to 4, until the first of the ninth inning. The Annex evened up matters in their half by mixing a single, an error, three stolen bases, a free pass to a hit batter. In the 10th inning, the Annex got to McKenna in lively fash- ion, and when his support brake down, 2 runs were scored and the game was won. The score: . h.
