kNELL PITCHES
JUST AS Of old
Veteran Southpaw Is a
Mystery in Every
Inning but One.
Lynch ALI but Ties Up the
Score With a Home
Run Drive.
STANDING OF THE CLUBS.

Twas just like a peep into the dim
past to see the venerable Phil knell once
the pride of Pittsburg, mount the mound
yesterday at Recreation Park. A mighty
cheer went up as soon as the fans spotted
the man who used to electrify many OF
them in days gone by The old man did
his work well-so well that the home
team succumbed by score of to 3.
He looked like the same Phil who was
a twinkling star when most OF the pres
ent performers of this league were view
ing ball games through knotholes or else
were being wheeled around inWbaby car
riages. With all the years his good left
arm has not lost any of its cleverness,
though his wonderful speed seems to have
forsaken him.
In every inning the old-timer had the
home players on his staff. They got a
run in the fourth on an error and bad
play by Townsend but they made no hits.
In the ninth inning Delmas walked. As
the fans were getting ready to leave the
place Henry Lynch advanced with his
club and without any ceremony hit the
ball out of the lot over the left field fence.
1t was the longest drive Of the year and
possibly the longest in the history OF the
grounds, barring one made by Chick
Stahl of Boston back in 81.
1t was too bad that there were not
more runners on the bags at the time. As
il was two were out and the next man up,
Pat Meany, did not make good with a
safe drive, so ii was all over then and
the fans had to go home.
The Senators landed on the offerings Of
James, the deep sea monster, in the third
for two hits and a run. The home
team tied up this in their half
of the same round when Eagan
erred and Townsend made a stupid
play by throwing Lynchs bunt TO third
when there was no chance TO head off the
runner.
In the fourth spasm Sheehan and Doyle
both hit safely and were advanced on an
out by Graham. Then just to show he
was there with the stick as we'll as the
wing, old Phil soused out hit to right
field and brought them both in.
Irwin's error and an out gave the Sem
ators one more in the ninth. This lone
tally proved the winning run, for had it
not been scored Lynch's drive would then
have tied the result up. The score:

QUIT WHINING
AND GO TO WORK
A Plea for the Cheerful Soul
Who Lives to Be
Happy.

There isn't anything in the world more
disagreeable than whining person. He
whines if ii is hot. He whines if il is
cold. He whines at this, he whines at
that, he whines at everything. Whine.
whine, whine 1t is just a habit he has
fallen into. There is nothing the matter
with him. 1t is just bad habit
The wilmer Is generally an idle person
or lazy one. What ne needs is to be
S t to work-at real hard work. mental or
physical Some work that will interest
him and engage his whole attention and
he will not have time to whine We know
two women. One of them does her own
housework and takes care of her horse
besides She is happy and singing all the
day long. The keyboard of her life
sounds no whining note. 1t is a pleasure
to be with her, a good, wholesome tonic
TO watch her. The other woman is so sit
uated that she does not have to work
Nothing to do but to amuse herself She
has no zest in life, no interest in anv-
thing. She is a bunch of seIfshness and
whines at everything. Whining has be-
come such a habit with her that her
most casual remark is tingcd with a
whine. She is miserable herself and makes
everybody else in her presence miserable
she is weakling, parasite, a drag a
heavy weight on somebody ali the time
Get the whine out of your voice or IL
VIII stop the development and growth of
your body. 1t will narrow and shrink
your mind. 1t will drive awav vour
friends; 1t will make you unpopular. Omit
your whining; brace up; go to work: be
something; stand for something: fill Nour
place in the universe. Instead of whining
around, exciting only pity and coutempf
face about and make something Of YOUR
self Reach up to the stature of a strong.
ennobling manhood. to the beauty and
strength of a superb womanhood

Him With Pulling

SALEM, Or, Sept. 3.-The most inter
esting feature of the races this afternoon
was the Lewis and Clark stake, for 2:25

ond heat by the ruling off the track of w.
G. Durfee, the lessee of Sweet Marie,
which is owned by William Garland of
Los Angeles. The judges charged Durfee
with pulling Sweet Marie and allowing

count of the value of Sweet Marie, Durfee

can Trotting Association. Results:
