The first four men hit Low- rey. safely, which was enough for him and he had to retire in favor of Gav- itt, who pitched strong ball at times, lbut the Sachems got to him when hits meant runs. Jackie Kane was in the box for the Sachems and he had the goods by holding the White Rock .{team to eight scattered hits and sent nine back to the bench by the strik out route. Bill Stanley for the Sa- chems played a clever game both in the fleld and at the bat. The Sa- chems proved by the outcome of the game that they are able to hold their own with any team in the state. ‘The Sache; ‘would like to come to terms with the Hospital and ville teams and complete a series.

Hockenbrochet featured in the game by accepting several hard chances without a fault.

The Emeralds drew first blood in the inter-city series with the Inde: pendents at Rhoades field Sunday af- ternoon, in the presence of one of the largest crowds ever seen on the field. Over a thousand people were on the |* grounds at one stage of the game, and the majority stayed until the ninth in- ning, Lefty Smith held the Independents safe in all but the ninth inning, when J. Nichols singled, stole second and third and came home on Holmes’ sin- gle. In the second inning, with men on second and third, he fanned the next three batters in a row, and again in the fourth in the same situation struck out two ang a fly to center ended the rally. e For the Emeralds, Adams doubled in the first with two down and scored on Smith’s single. In the fourth with two on bases and none down, Shepaum tried to bunt, and the ball went just over the third baseman's head for a clean single. A flelder’s choice gave one run, but Peloquin struck out two for the close of the inning. Peloquin weakened in, the &ixth, and the winners scored six runs on four singles, three two baggers and a triple, mixeq in with a base on balls and an error, in that and the two succeeding innings. A running catch by McDer- mott and the hitting of Adams, Smith and Comins featured the contest. The score: Emeralds Independents I 0 G W01 D'mott}t 5 1 3 Noel.ss.

Scotty was called on to go in in the second in- ning, with his team on the wrong end of a'6 to 0 score, and had he received the support he was entitled to. there is no telling what might have hap- pened.

The remarkable spurt of the Boston National League club which carried it from last place to a tie for first position in a little more than a month established a new record in major league basebball While the Braves never seriously threatened the record of continuous victories they won strings of games ranging from four to seven straight with seldom more than one defeat breaking the sequence and as_result the climb from the National League cellar to tie with the New York Giants for fifirst place on August 24 was ex- tremely_sensational. It is hard to fix the exact date upon which the Braves first showed signs of the rush that was destined to carry them from the bottom to the top of the league in less than 6 weeks. On Mon- day July 6, the club was in last place, having won 26 games and lgst 40 for a percentage of .394. Philadelphia held seventh with .467. On that date the Braves started a run of four victories and continued with few defeats until August 24. During this period Boston met every other club in the league ex- cept Philadelphia, winning 33 games; losing 8 and tieing one. While playing at this .805 clip the Braves scored 164 runs, 335 hits, made 54 errors and had 285 runners stranded on the bases. The averages show that but 1-27 errors were made per game and one run scored for every 2 hits. The best run of victories was made between July 27 and August 6, when nine games in a row were won from Chicago, St. Louis and Pittsburg. It is also a pe- culiar coinocident that these same clubs aided by Cincinnati accounted for the cight games lost by the Braves, dur- ing the period@ under consideration. Nothing like this rally or rush has heretofore been recorded in the annals of the big league. The nearest ap- proach was the -dash of the Chicago ‘White Sox in 1906, when under the management of Fielder Jones the Chi- cago club by winning nineteen straight zames lifted itself from scventh to well, but carried off the hitting hon- ol’s J.

The Braves and Giants clash today in a double-header at Boston and a reacord breaker crowd is expected. Most likely McGraw's old stand by Christy Mathewson will pitch one of the games.

At the First Congregational church Sunday, immediately after the morn- ing ‘service. an address was given by Ralph Gold of Stafford Springs, who has been for three years past a teach- er in one of the government schools in China.

Just before coming home this summer Mr. Gold visited Mrs. Smith and the children in Foochow. Mr. Smith was conducting a summer school at Ing-hok, Sherwood Eddy was in China a year ago and was warmly welcomed.

He spoke in English to Chinese students, whose replies whether writte or spoken were hindered by the attémpt to use English. In speaking of the church at Ing-hok, which is soon to be replaced by a largér one, he said that the building is about the size of the gallery of the First church. One wall has been taken away so that peo- ple outside the church could yet be a part of the audience. In the after-discussion, Confuclan- ism, education of women, returning Chinese students, the present goveri- ment, roads and customs in China were talked over, Mr. Gold telling many - teresting incidents, Improvement Society Meets.
