Features of the Struggle.

The pennant race is becoming more interesting
every day, and things that seemed certain a few
weeks ago look very uncertain now. 1t is not
long since we heard every side that Boston s
lead was so great that nobody would overhaul It,
However, as l predicted, Boston has. somew what
weakened during its Western trip. Doubtless the
Bostons fine lot of ball players but the fact
remains that there is unsteadiness about them
that ought not to be found in champions. True
they still first. but the others are gradual v
closing with them. The Boston's pitchers are
pounded too frequently to be winners of the pen
nant. 1 fail 10 see how Boston can compare favor
hold the opinion that with equal chances
the New 1orks the best lot of
players in the country, and L further claim
that if Boston had met with the same difficulties
they would have been well down the list. In the
early part Of the season Boston obtained good
lead by meeting clubs that were in the direst
difficulties. In my estimation all that Is needed
for the New forks to get into first place is for
Keefe and Melch TO keep in good repair. Cleve-
seems to nurse Its pitchers with such extra
ordinary care that we may, think, safely come to
the conclusion that it will never be far from the
top. Philadelphia Is playing worse now than it
into shape and the race between Anson's team
and Pittsburg is fine one. am induced 90
think that II PitIsburg's pitchers keep all right
the team will beat Chicago. Indianapolis is still
going along with that frregularity that has
characterized 1t during the season. The fact is
that the Boosiers and the Senators are SO un-
certain that few people will be surprised If neither
OF them is seen in the League next year. The
effects Of a team like Washington on other cities
is seen in the fact of the poor attendance at the
League cannot afford TO have such inferior teams
in its organization.

Playing for Stakes.

nany proof of the growing interest In baseball
in Pennsylvania is needed IL can be found in the
fact Of so many clubs wanting to play matches for
money. l don't think there ever was a time when
there was such strong desire among those So
called amateur clubs to play stakes as there is
now. 1t is probable that there will be several
match games before the is out and it is not
hard to understand why all this rivalry exists
The local semi-proie essional clubs in Western
Pennsylvanla are numerous this season and their
aft all engagements possible and nat
urally each terms itself the best
and as a consequence there is a bitter conflict OF
opinion at once. However, all this feeling will be
good for the success of baseball, If the feeling
only does not get 100 far too strong There Is .
likelihood that a match will be made between the
McKeesports and the j. w. SCOTS. These clubs
are good ones and doubtless a contest for 800 n
side between them would be a very Interesting af-
fair. Representatives of each team have to meet
at this office ON Wednesday evening" when match
will likely be made. PRI0GLR.

OUR BASEBALL BULLETIN.
Ii Awnkens the Enthusiasm Of the Out-or-
Town Correspondent.

tFrom Ner Fork Letter 10 ne Auburn Adrsrifser.l
A noticeable sight on Park Row these May
afternoons is a crowd filling the space be-
tween Tn EVENING WORLD Building and the
Post Office. The eyes OF all are riveted ou q
board representing n hall field. Trucks and
hundreds of street cars roll by, and the
crowd gives way, only TO return TO its place.
Venturesome gamins climb high among the
pillars of the Federal Building and unmo-
lestedly survey the game, for such it is.
Cheers go up when New York makes q win
ming play.
The skilled reporter on the ball field lots
down with ready pencil the progress of the
game, and the telegraph operator beside him
ticks of each play as 1t IS noted. the electric
current bearing the news directly into the
Office of Til EVENING WORLD for publica-
ton IA its Sporting Edition. But The EVEN
ING WORLD isn't at all stingy as regards its
news, so II spreads the game of the day
before the people on this ingenious substi-
tute for a ball field. Red pegs represent
the New York Club and blue ones their op-
ponents.
Numbers corresponding to those on a list
of the players conspicuously displayed tell

bat is put on the home plate. His peg fol-
lows him around the bases or goes into the
column of outs. - as the case may be. In
two squares are pegs representing the total
runs of each club, and a blackboard gives
the score by each club. There are other de-
tails which add to the fidelity of the repre-
| sentation.
But the interesting feature Of the game to
one who is not IL baseball crank, and l am
not, il the crowd which watches the manipu-
lation of the bright hued pegs. There are
newsboys, of course, but they have too much
business on hand to be constant observers
unless they have been lucky with their Las
Ditions." The crowd is largely composed Of
sporting men, business men, clerks, young
women and an exuherant element of young
America which doesn't have to sell papers
and which has - the tip" On the game.
There are but few passers by who do not
stop for a few moments, especially if the
bases are full aad two men out, and what q
cheer goes mp if the man at bat makes q three
base hit. If he should make a nome run he
is n hero in the crowd. although he may not
know that he has these spectators. The silk
hat is often swung in the air in iuxtaposition
to the tattered cap Of the newsboy. A great
thing is the National game.

When they heard that ! had to go back to

like the idea of Belle having to live so far

SO we talked it over and then the farmer
let out TINT he had IN idea of giving up his

But it WIS agreed that Belle and / should
