In addition Etawah took a chance against the watch and did the mile circuit in 2:03. Queen Abbess in the 2:10 pace kept clear of a number of half mile stars, not one of which raced consistently enough to get within the money. Liz- zie Brown won so impressively in the Capital City trot that she is regarded | as a dangerous foe for Peter Scott when they meet at Lexington. Napoleon Direct did not have to pace in the limit to take the free for all. ~ Anna Bradford took him a lively first half in the opening mile and then broke aut of the argument.

JOE WO0OD'S RETURN HELPS RED S0X Former Smoke Ball Artist Prim- ing for Coming World's Series Boston, ' Sept. 24.—The Red Sox went far to make the pennant safe yesterday, by winning twice from Cleveland. Joe Woods returned to the game after an absence of a month, and pitched Boston to a 5 to 4 victory in the, opener. The former placed by Mays in the eighth. The visitors hit Shore harder in the second game than has any other team in some time, but his delivery was strong enough to limit them to two runs, while Boston gained seven more. Jack Graney will be out of the game the rest of this season with a broken collarbone.

St. Louis, Sept. 24,.—Dick Hanlon, scout for the Kansas Clity Federals, in an interview yesterday is quoted as saying that the Federals would quit Kansas City next season “There will be no Federal League club in Kansas City next year,” Han- lon is quoted as saying. “The reason is they have no money there. While most of the other clubs are signing young players we are sitting by idly and watching all the stars being picked up. We have no money to go out and them and unless the lcague comes to our assistance Wwe probably will have ta worry along with the same players next year that we have this.” It is understood that if the club is taken from Kansas City is will be transferred to New York. Mann Denies Report. Kansas City, Sept. 24.—"The Kan- sas City Federal League team belongs to Kansas City and it will play here next season,” said Conrad Mann, pres- ident of the local club last night Mr. Mann declared the local organi- zation has ample financial support. “Hanlon is not a scout for the Kan- sas City team and knows nothing of our affairs,” continued Mr. Mann.

Fans Ask Mgr- Moran to Use Famous Hurler Against Red Sox. Thicago, Sept. 24.—Every mail bringing Pat Moran, manager of the Philadelphia Nationals scores of letters urging him to pitch Grover Alexander, the big right hander, in the first game of the world’s series, in which, the writers are convincad, the Philadelphia club will be one of the contending teams. is PS LOSE TO AMERICANS, University of Chicago Baseball Team Defeat Waseda University in Tokio, Tokio, Japan, Sept. 24, 6:15 p. m —Twenty thousand Japanese baseball enthusiasts saw the University of Chicago team win the first game of its series with Waseda University here this afternoon by a score of five to three.

U. of Chicago 5 3 b T | that any first class entry ““hasn’t got a ! ckance” is more than making a sweeping statement. It has an inti- mate liking to the art of articulating through one’s hat. For it is always well to remember that the Phillies al- ready have done a big lot more than any thought they could do. And just at present this seems to be a bull market for the once low stocks. Hunches and Such, | There are a number of hunches to censider in this next world series out- burst. To begin with, the Phillies have never won a world series before, largely because they have never had a chance to even start one through forty years of wandering across the Barren Lands. ! Also, the Red Sox have never lost a world series. They have only .been in two, but they beat the Pirates in 1903 and the Giants in 1912. No Roston club has ever lost a world series—a record that belongs to no other city. Giants, Athletics, Cubs, Tigers, Pirates, at one time or an- cther have all absorbed it in highly vulnerable spots. But Boston, up to 1915, has been impregnable to any world series assault. Which is a hunch you may employ either way— that they are due—or otherwise. In stating that the Red Sox and Braves are the only clubs that never lost a world series we erred. Neither ! had the Reds or Yanks. The White Sox also have a perfect world series record with one win out cf one start. i He that chideth or blameth his caddie is a duffer at heart, though he playeth better than par nine out ol ten. But he that blameth only hlmself for each mistake has gathered form in one main variety that a Vardon might not surpass. Carrigan may be bothered a bit as to which slabman he will start the| sorles with, but no similar worry now i harasses the manly bosom of Pat. Moran. TFor Pat knows well enough, even this far ahead, that it won’t be Rixey, McQuillen ! or Mayer, “Boxing promoter ' 'plans to get Treddie Welsh in the ring for a twenty-round decision fight."—Ex- change. Logical enough—unless in some way Freddie hears about it. “The big slump taken this season by Travers and Ouimet,” begins a golf writer, who is evidently entitled to another guess. Travers still hap- pens to be Open Golf Champion of | Tomorrow at Ten Dollars You wan’t to know how we do it. They are far out of the ordinary ten-dollar class.
