won more frequently. Every team should play their best until the season is finished.
 The game at Riverside Park on next Sunday between the Brooklyn A. c. and the Washington Hill A. c. will be one of the hottest contests of the sea son Much will depend upon the out come of the game. If the B. A. C.. wins that club has the pennant for a certainty. It will be impossible to beat them. They have three games to play. If the should win next Sun day and lose the other two games their standing will be as follows: 15 games won, , games lost, percentage .75O. If the Washington Hill A. c. should lose next Sunday and should win their one remaining game their standing would be as follows: 14 won. 6 lost, percent age TOO. If, however. the B. A. C.. should lose next Sunday they would have to to win their two remaining games to win the championship, that is provided the ". H. A. c. should win ther fast game. The stand be as follows: B. A. O., 16 won, 4 lost, percentage 800; w. H. A. C., 15 won, lost, percentage .75O.. If the B. A. O. should lose next Sunday and win but one of the re- maining games and the w H. A. C.. should win both games the two teams would be tied with percentage of .750. If the B. A. c. should win all three games and the W. H. A. c. should lose both of their games the relative standing of the teams would then be as follows: B. A. O., IT won, 3 lost, percentage $50; w H. A. e. 13 won, lost, percentage $50. Thus the B. A. c. would have the remarkably high percentage of.S50 and would have lost only three games during the sea- son. From the above one may see that there are chances of the B. A. c. losing the pennant but the chances are very slim when one takes into con- sideration the article of ball that the Brooklyn club is playing. The B. A. C's remaining games are with the W. H. A. C., St. Joseph's and Jeffersons. They have already played three games with these clubs with the fol lowing results: They won one and lost two to the w. H. A. c. They won two and lost one to the St Joseph's, while theyewon all threeifrom the Jeff fersons.

The Mistakes that Frank Erne Has
 Made.

AAS -AASIdheS lnaI nFduk Erne Has
 Made.
 A book entitled 1.-The Mistakes of Francis Erne" might not make very thick volume, but would be full of in struction. His recent performances il- lustrate the folly. of a fairly clever box CT, affected with undue cranical en- largement, attempting to exchange thumps with genuine fighters. Erne has reached his present humiliating position as a result of following the advice of a cluster of Buffalo syco- phants who for years have warbled a song the refrain of which was that Erne is the only boxer on earth That has been dinned into his ears so con- stantly he had come to believe it, and the first mortifying result was the ter rife whipping he received from Me Govern. Although Erne is a light weight. yet under the sunny influence of Buffalo f1attery he went out of his class and met McGovern at 12S pounds ringside. The fearful thrashing he received is yet fresh in the public's mind.

Columbia Is Allowed But Forty-three
 Seconds. 7 v S-1
 New York, Sept 25.4The official measurements of the cup challenger Shamrock II. and the cup defender O. lumbia were made public last night at the New York Yacht club. The result was in the nature of a surprise, for it showed that the Shamrock. which is the larger boat so far as sail area and displacement are concerned, allows only fOrty-three seconds to the Colum- bia over the thirty-mile course of which the contests for the Americas cup are to be sailed.
 The Shamrock has a shorter water line length. She has a longer spinna- ker boom, longer gaff, a longer top- mast and carries more canvas. MT Watson, the designer of the Shamrock H., by keeping down the load water line length of his yacht, has got the better of his rival. Mir Herreshoff. The sail area of the Shamrock is larger and by judicious handling of the spars is only penalized forty-three seconds. The measurements follow:

A FORGOTTEN Geaius.

The history of wireless telegraphy
would not be complete without some
mention OF Joseph Henry, America's
greatest scientist, for 1t was he who
first. In 1912, discovered the oscillatory
character OF certain electric discharges
and who showed that these oscillations
produced disturbances which could by
suitable receivers be detected at dis
tances OF many rods and through In
tervening buildings. writes Professor
Joseph Ames In The Review OF Re-
views. He even arranged an apparatus
on this principle to respond to the
lightning discharges OF distant storms.
The great genius Of Henry was never
more apparent than in his investiga-
ton OF electrical discharges and their
oscillatory nature. It is a lasting tes-
timony to the ignorance among Ameri-
cans OF their own great men that the
name Of Joseph Henry was not includ-
ed In the first so selected for the Hall
OF Fame OF the nation.
