Deafness Cannot Be Cured

There is only one way to cure deafness,

Deafness is caused by an infamed condi-

THE AUTHORITY" is OFF.
A Few Instances Which Show the in.
accuracy of Purported AVERAGES.

accuracy of Purported Averages,
Baseball fans have been greatly
amused lately by a series of questions
and answers which have appeared from
time to time in a morning paper, not
| The Spy. The reason is that the ques-
ttons are so nonsensical and so easy
that every reader has realized that no
body with common sense would ask
such questions. 1t is apparent on the
face of them that the questions were
made up in the newspaper office. The
Ievident purpose was to make the writer
pose as an authority Maybe people
are deceived, but not baseball people
Just imagine writer who poses as a
baseball authority failing to give
Bransffeld a hit in Fridays game on
the batted ball that struck Carr, who
was running to second. In rule rs, sec
ton 3, which defines base hit, is the
following: THAT in all cases where a
base runner is retired by being hit by
batted ball the batsman should be
credited with base HIT
The same authority isn't within
three years of being up to date in the
matter of sacrifice hitting. Monday,
Odwell of Montreal hunted a few yards
down the first base line with johnson
but threw wildly to Carr and Odwell
was safe, Johnson getting second cas-
ily All newspapers in the city except
a morning paper, not The Spy, credit
ed Odwell with sacrifice hit and gave
him only two times at bat. One morn
ing paper, not The Spy, had Odwell at
bat three times and didn't know that
the hunt was sacrifice.
The point was that OdwelI did not
get out but anybody who poses as an
authority" and can ask himself
Questions ought to know points of the
game that don't come up every day.
Rule IS, section 4, defines a sacrifice hit
as bunt hit which, with one or less
out, advances runner, which results
in putting out the batsman or would
SO result if the ball was handled with
out an error"
The average spectator, even the man
who doesn't take the trouble to use a
score card, knows that it would have
been sacrifice if Odwel1 had been put
out, but it isn't everybody who realized
it was a sacrifice when he reached first
The next day Bransfield deliberately
hunted to advance Carr from first, but
a morning paper, not The Spy, credited
him with time at bat
All these things greatly affect the
batting averages of players and show
how inaccurate the mess of
figures purporting to be batting
averages are. Taking the two
games in which mistakes We're
made on Bransfeld for instance. Ac-
cording to the inaccurate system of Of
fetal scoring Bransheld went to bat
nine times and had three hits, making
his average 1888. His real average
would be 500, as he went to bat eight
times and made four hits.

A BOLD THREAT.
Manager Buckenber-
ger Tells What
Will Happen,
THAT SATURDAY FRACAS.
He Says Providence Players
Were Entirely to
Blame.
THAT SATURDAY FRACAS.

The Rochesters came to Worcester
last evening and are quartered at the
Commonwealth hotel where the SYRIA
cuse Stars are also stopping. Manager
BuclIenberger's men will witness the
game at the oval today, except three
who have secured his permission for a
trip to Boston to see the game between
Boston and Brooklyn.
Manager Buckenberger talked freely
last evening concerning the fracas of
yesterdays and Saturdays game be-
tween members of the Rochester and
Providence teams, and said Providence
players were entirely to blame.
Speaking of the fight which occurred
between Davis and Householder at
Providence on Saturday, he said Davis
was entirely to blame He ran into
Davis and the latter muffed a ball
which made him so mad that he swung
at Householder The latter grappled
with Davis and threw him. Manager
Buckenberger said Householder picked
Davis up as if the latter was a child
and flung him hard. When they were on
the ground Householder was on top.
Dunkle and several other Providence
players ran to where they were strug-
Cling and Dunkle hit Householder. An
other of the Providence men kicked him
over the eye. Which one 1t was, Man
ager Buckenberger would not say.
In yesterdays fight at Crescent park
between Cassidy and Barclay, he said
Cassidy was at fault. Barclay was
going to second and Cassidy tried to
block him off. Barclay went into him
feet first. Cassidy thumped him. Umpire
Belts put Cassidy out of the game, but
later Barclay said Cassidy had not hit
him, and Belts allowed Cassidy to play
When the Providence players reach
Rochester they will be whipped, Man
ager Buckenberger says. He says it will
not take place on the ball field, as he
will not allow it, but his men will meet
the Providence players ON the street
and give it to the latter there.
When asked about the fight between
McQuaid and O'Hagan at Rochester on
the last trip of the Worcesters, Man
ager Buckenberger said McQuaid was
the one to blame. AS he ran towards
first O'Hagan stopped to catch a low
thrown ball. McQuaid jumped into him.
That started the fight Manager Buck
enberger said Sharrott went after
Smink, who chased the ball, and gave
him a hard poke in the ribs.
He said later in the game O'Hagan
damned his elbow into Kuhns when the
| latter was crossing first base Manager
Buckenberger said he fined O'Hagan $40
| for doing that to Kuhns.
He says his team is being called row.
dies in every city, but the name is not
| deserved. The players are better dis
| ciplined than any team in the league.
He says he has seven or eight men who
| never touch a drop Of liquor of any
| kind
He thinks Rochester has a. cinch on
| the pennant, but adds that Rochester
and Worcester are evenly matched.
They are the best teams in the league
| in his opinion.
| Billy Lush, one of his fielders, is out
of the game on account of a sprained
ankle. He thinks Lush will be able to
| play in Wednesdays game.

FOUR DISTINCT ARMIES.
Root Believes in Harrass-
ing Enemy on
All Sides.

Washington, Aug. 20.-The map of the
ton of the island of Luzon north and
south of Manila which has been pre-
pared for the use of Secretary Root
may assume more important part in
the coming campaign than has been
given 1t heretofore. Secretary Root
has not only ascertained where the
United States troops are located and
has them nicely marked off on the map
hut he has also taken into consideration
such information as can be obtained
relative to the population of the ada
cent country, the kind of people and
their disposition toward the United
States.
1t is believed that more than one ar
my can operate to advantage in the
philippines and the suggestion has been
made by some army officers that an ar
my should start from different points
and operate in such manner as to dis
tract and destroy the Filipino forces.
At present the United States forces do
not occupy the line of railway half way
to Lingayen, on the gulf of the same
name. 1t has been suggested that if
one force were to start from Lingayen
and move south at the same time that
another Wers moving north there would
be very great probability of soon Sc
curing the entire railway for the use of
the army and the insurgents would be
separated into divisions east and west
by the railway, as they are now divided
into northern and southern bands. Be
tween Angeles and Lingayen is Tar
lac, a town of considerable size, and
situated in a province where the natives
are said not to be unfriendly to the
United States. If this province could
be occupied it might be of great adj
vantage to the government.
While these are now merely sugges-
tions 1t may be that when the army in
the Philippines CONSISTS of 10000 men
instead of about 10000 or $4,000. it will
be possible to have four or more armies
operating instead Of two as during the
last campaign.

Chicago, Aug. 2O.-The Orphans won and
lost today. The game with Cleveland was
a wild exhibition on both sides. Chioago's
loose play, together with five hits, gave
the tailenders six runs, two to the good,
in the ninth. Then Schmidt went wild,
filling the bases, and Mertes cleared them
by hit far over Dowd's head. Cunning
ham, for Louisville, was a complete puz-
zle, allowing but one hit with men on
bases. His support was perfect, while
Griffith's was ragged and hits off him
We're made at the right time. Ryan and
