Blue Blood.

The American physician" who
makes some amazing medical or scien-
titic discovery about once week with
Underwriting regularity, and has long
since become an established journalistic
institution, shows signs of a tendency
TO abuse the hospitality SO lavishly ac-
corded him by the newspapers Of two
continents. His story of having found
actual blue blood in his own veins, for
instance. which was cabled from Phila.
delphia, is only fit to be- told 60 the ul.
tramarines If blue blood is ever found
anywhere, it will probably be elsewhere
than in the United States. London

Latest Topics Of Interest in the National
Sport.

Four home runs in one game! That
of the Philadelphia club in recent game
at Chicago. Taken In it's specific outlines
1t Is probably the greatest batting feat on
record. In the old days Of underhand
pitching and u much more lively ball /
believe the late Harry Wright made seven
or eight home runs in one game, but home
runs in that style Of playing were almost
as frequent as two base hits are now If
Delehanty had made his home runs on the
Boston ground or on the Philles' own
ground, much would have been taken from
the honor OF the performance, for in Bos-
ton the left and right field fences and in
Philadelphia the right field fence are so
near to the diamond that many fly balls go
over which count as home runs, but which
with an unobstructcd field would be easy
outs. All Of Delehanty's four base hits
were made inside of the inclosed grounds
They were good long drives which could
not bc returned by the flelders till after the
noted Philadelphia batsman had made the
circuit of the bases
Another thing which adds to this bat
ting record is the fact that it was not gen
orally heavy hitting game. The Phila-
dclphia team made only eight runs, half of
which We're ''Del's" homers He faced
Pitcher Terry only five times, hitting for

As a batsman rather than first base
man Brouthcrs' usefulness was made APP
parent. For II years he either led the
country at batting or stood well up among
the leaders. During the last few years his
good eye failed rapidly, and he was 10
more terror to pitchers. l first saw
Brouthers play in 1879 on the old Cincin-
natl grounds near the stockyards. He was
in the heyday of his professional life. 1t
was the first time that Will White as a,
pitcher ever faced the tall awkward Young
fellow A pitcher in those days had more
latitude with bad balls than he does now
and it was Whites habit to merely toss the
first ball across in Il parabolic curve three
or four feet above the batsman's head. He
did not vary his custom for Brouthers, but
Dan never let anything 90 by in those days
which he could reach. So he merely raised
his six feet one" on his toes, reached up
with his long bat, and the ball went sail
ing over right center field fence
As I've already said, Brouthers never
ranked very high AS Il first baseman In
