When he came to bat for the last time today in_the fifth gamie of a wonderfully hard. fought series, the game was tied fast and hard. “Colonel” Eppa Jeptha Rixey pitching for the murm( Phillis and there was one out in the ninth inning When Hooper faced the erratic south- paw.

The local batters, who had their batting sights trained on the stands and close-set fences long before the seriés began, valiantly tried to meet the invaders at the home run. game. Luderus lifted one high over the right fleld wall in the fourth, but here the heavy firing of the home folks ended and for the last five inninzs there was never a threat of Philadeiphia tallles. The short fences of the little Phiily park, confidently looked forward to as a benefit to the home players, proved in the end their undoing. . Cravath, home run monarch of the National league, was expected to break up sev. eral games with smashes out of the lot. but he got his long hits in Bos. ton, where they were speared for sen- sational outs and before the home cmwdl “Gavvy” could only whiff the air when the fans were frantie for a hit.
