LATE SPORTING NEW S
LOCALS. GOOD WORK.

The Senators We're Strengthened and
Have Won in Consequence.
Boston made the best record of the Ma
tioEa1 Base Ban League during the past
week, winning four and losing one game,
and jumping from sixth to second place.
Chicago. Pittsburg, New York and Brook
lyn each won four games out of six, and
Cleveland and Washington won three out
of five. Baltimore and st. Louis split even,
winning and losing three each, while Gin
cinnati won one out of FIVE and poor Louis
Vile one cut of six, and that was from
Washington.
The playing of the local team since its
return from the west has satisfied the local
patrons, and, while they are not, like the
mart ger. indulging in hopes of the cham
pionship over the gaining of a few games,
yet they can see that the policy cf

ago by The Star has been vindicated. A
year ago the nine was steadily losing
games because of weakness at short and
second. Manager Schmelz was urgently
advised in tkis column to strengthen those
two places. The advice was unheeded, and
the clubs trip resulted in the disaster that
every one expected. Instead of strengthen
ing the team. the manager blamed the UNI
piIes for his defeats, and many jokes were
cracked at his expense. The advice ne
elected last year has been followed this

During a trip down the river in a
steamboat few years ago." said IL.
G. Wareham, of Memphis, at the
Laclede Hotel, ''I was greatly anus
ed at joke perpetrated by ven
triloquist who happened to be on
board. The man had made friends
with the engineer, and was permit
ted to enter the engine room. He
took his seat in a corner and pulling
his hat down over his eyes, appeared
lost in thought. Presently certain
part Of the machinery began to
squeak. The engineer oiled it and
went about his usual duties. In the
course of few minutes the squeak
was heard again, and the engineer
rushed, oil can in hand, to lubricate
the same spindle. Again he returned
to his post, but it was only few
moments before it was squeaking
louder than ever.
"'Confound the thing! What is tn e
matter with it?' yelled the engineer,
as he administered more oil.
Something about the ventriloquist's
manner just then seemed to arouse
the engineers suspicious, and he
kept a close watch on him out of the
corner of his eye. Pretty soon the
spindle began to squeak again, and
slipping up behind the ventriloquist,
the engineer squirted half pint of
oil down his neck. There he said,
4 guess that spindle won't squeak
any more.'
