 The end of the season is near at hand, and Hanlon's Orioles, by taking both games from Pittsburg yesterday and the Reds breaking even with the Bean- eaters. are again in first place. It is only a little while now till shouting time, and it looks as if the Monumental City will again float the much coveted pennant over her city building. In the event that Hanlon again lands the prize 1t is safe to say German will not be in it with him for first place in the hearts of the Marylanders.

 In First Place Again.

 The big lead that Boston got in the first two innings won the second game. Nine men faced Ehret in the first in- ming, and four rurs were made on six hits. Three more runs were made in the second on four hits. Ehret was not batted to any extent thereafter. The Royal makes the food pure,
 wholesome and delicious.
