cLEvELAND'S HARD HITTING

The game between Cleveland and
Washington yesterday was one of the
kind that makes the spectators leave be-

up by both sides was miserable. The
Senators had three black marks chalked
against them, while the Blues broke into

sions.

a quartet of bingles out of six times at
the bat, making eleven hits for him in
the three games. In all Cleveland hit
Dunkle safely seventeen times in the
seven innings in which he occupied the
slab, and batted Patten for two safeties
in as many sessions. The slaughter In
the fifth was the worst this season. LOT
tus got busy in the eighth and yanked
Dunkle out of the box, substituting Pat

The Kaiser

Emperor William has been at
hlcted with throat trouble for some
time and his subjects are becoming
much alarmed over his condition..
He has had an operation performt d
on his throat and, either from tie
effects of the operation or the raw
ages of the disease, he is unable to
speak above a whisper.
The rumor is prevalent tha he is
aft cted as was his father VIII am

dications are quite strong that the
German people will have new
Kaiser ere great while. Inc bi"od
