PLAYS at Boston Today.
If any one had predicted string
of six consecutive victories for the Wash
snyton Baseball Club at the beginningof last
week it is doubtful If anybody would have
believed such thing to be possible, yet the
Senator's, by as fine work as any club in
the League s capable of doing, disposed OF
the Quakcrs ard Trolley Dodgers for three
consecutive games each. 1t was not in
any one depar tment that good ball pla ying
was apparent, but i'm all the fine points the
Statesmen exoelied their opponents.
To start with, all the pitchers who
worked We're very effective. Swaims 1eat
OF allow wing but ten hits to be made Off his
delivery in the two games ne occupied The
box was the best work done by any or the
twirlers, but as Mercer was sIccessful in

from second to third when the backstop

while line flies that looked good for two
and three bases fell into the mitts Of the
outfielders with regularity that was very
pleasing to the spectators. Although Wash
incton made the same number or errors
as their oppoEents they were less disastrous,
usually coming when the bases were unoc-
Cupied and toing little damage.
With the stick they outbatted the visiting
clubs making a total or siXty-eiSbt base
hits TO forty eight for Philadelphia and
Brooklyn combined and earning nineteen
runs TONNE for the two visiting teams cogh'
bined. Truly, it was great week for the
Senators. and the loyal rooters are very
much elated over the improved playing OF
the club.

Minneapolis Lnm'1erman: LAST
week the largest log that ever went
through the mill Of the G. A. Smith
Lumber company was rolled out on.
to the log deck and sent to the
carriage. It was an old pine patri-
arch probably several hundred years
OF age and had been In the river two
or three years. The log was scaled
and showed a measurement Of 1,4SO
feet, but as 1t was old'it had rotted
q good deal and would not make
that amount Of lumber. It was q
reminder 81 what the lumbermen
used to get In the first years Of
Minneapolis as 9 manufacturing
center, and the time when they did
not cut everything as It came. but
could choose their timber and cut
only the best. It was more expen-
siye logging that way. but they were
getting more money for their lumber
and could afford to be particular.
