David p. Wolhaupter. ESQ.,. President Board
OF Directors Of Church Base Ball League.
Dear Sir: In the absence Of Mr.. Geo. *.
Ieet, manager OF the ball team connected
pie Presbyterian Church. of which am
superintendent, would respectfully protest
against the action Of your board In the
meeting held August %, 1903. which re-
Qutred our team to play two additional
games with Temple Baptist team to decide
the question of championship and the pos
session of the cup.
The series OF games as originally sched-
uled closed on July 25 last; postponed and
forfeited games extending the season until
gust "a. Your board had a regular meeting,
and after much discussion decided that the
tie between the Temple and Gunton teams
should be played Off by a single game.
This game when played resulted in a de-
cisive victory for our boys, and at the close
of the game the cup was handed by you to
representative of our club. In view of
these facts, would insist thatsthe Church
League series of 1903 was closed incident
at the end Of the game of August "a; that
the cup Is and should be the property OF
the Gunton Temple and that your board
exceeded its authority Units action Of Au-
gust %.
OF course, IL a protest had been main
tanned and the game of August "a thrown
out, there might have been some grounds
for further action by your board and fur,
Their contest, but with that game allowed
to stand. 1 am unable to find any tenable
ground for the action of the board
In view of the above facts. our boys must
respectfully decline to enter into further
contest for championship and cup which
they have already won.
Very respectfully,
GEO. A. PROVOST.

Boston for the last time today
Tomorrow the great New Yorks open

Orth and Hughes will probably be the
contending pitchers this afternoon.
Lew Drill got hard knock on the muscles
of his right arm in the second game yester-
day and he may be out Of 1t today in con-
sequence. This would put Clark behind the
bat and Orth on first, as Kittridge Is still
laid up for repairs.
If the second game had gone beyond eight
innings, Jack Townsend would have gone
on the rubber on account Of Orth batting
for Dunkle. The Delaware boy was well
warmed up and felt like working
The Boston players were very sore at the
Senatorial outfit for the way the latter were
playing and continually tainted them with
being in last place. Dougherty and Drill
came near having run In over the in

A heavy mist fell just prior to the game
and the attendance was held down in con-

A Different Story in the Second.

III the second game an entirely different
tale was to be told. Gibson was opposed to
Dunkle on the firing line. and the former
not only had the better of the pitching ar
gument, but big Ed" sent two runs over
the plate by wild throw to third the ball
rolling to the bleachers in left
The loss OF the first game nerved the Bos-
tons for great effort In the second and the
Senators failed to stand up against the on
slaught.
In the very first inning Captain Manager
Collins picked out one of Dunkes swiftest
curves and drove 1t almost on a line over
the left field fence for a home run
In the third the Bostons got busy again.
COLLINS got safe one into short right and
scored on Freeman's terrific hit for two
bases to the score board In this sprint for
the plate Collins demonstrated that he is
one OF the swifteSt runners in the business
In the nth Dunkle's error bobbed up and
two more runs were scored. Collins again
started the trouble with beautiful double
into left. Chick Stahl then hit a roller
to Dunkle. and as Collins was trying for
third pass to Coughln was the proper
thing to kill Off the man nearest home But
the ball was slippery and went wild missing
third by several yards. Collins continuing
on home and Stahl going to third Free
man followed with high fly to Hendricks,
but beautiful throw to the plate chased
Chick back to third Parent then follow
ed with the right combination, a long fly
into center. and Stahl scored on the out.
In the eighth LaChance hit triple to the
club house and scored on Ferris long fly to
Ryan. This ended the run-getting with four
runs, two tallies to the good
The Senators found Gibson a perfect DUE
zle for six innings. only one man reaching
first In this time. Clarke on a base on balls
He had wonderful control over a speedy
out-drop. and the batters appeared to be
lucky II they touched the sphere, let alone
hitting 1t safe. In the seventh the combina :
ton was broken, and the Senators hung IN
their only runs. After Moran had been re-
tired Hendricks hit Texas Lacquer" into
left. and Setback singled into right Ryan
Iolowed with speedy single into left. and
Hendricks chased home. Gibson then shot
In wild pitch and Setback scored from
third where he had gone on Clarke's long
fly to Freeman.
In the eighth Mccormick and Drill prl!ed
on singles. but Ortiz who batted In DunkIo, a
place. and Moran and Hendricks failed 10
get either across the plate.

Who Was Junius?

My enthusiasm, | think. eliminated
when | had to consider whether Sir
Philip Francis was Junius. Many
predecessors, of course, had beaten
the bush so thoroughly that there was
little chance of any new discovery.
Still there was a fascination in turning
now TO old newspapers and pamphlets,
verifying or disproving, but always
fancying that the next page might con.
tain some pregnant hint hitherto I'M
noticed. The inquiry, however, ended
by rather damping my zeal. In the
first place, it permanently lowered my
estimate OF human Intelligence. Some
fOrty-nine of the fifty hypothesis said
to have been suggested are really
worthless. Many Of the so-called argu-
ments are on a level with the proofs
that Bacon wrote Shakespeare: that
is. they proceed on the assumption that
you Conclusively establish a PROPOSE
ton by showing that 1t does not in
volve a physical impossibility. The
only real question is whether the au-
thOrship OF Francis can be proved. I
think that 1t can, and there was some
amusement in bringing together the
verging probabilities. But il was also
borne in upon me very strongly that IL
matters not a straw to any human be.

NEW IDEAS IN TRIMMING.

The New York girls latest trimming
idea is delightfully."- simple. though it is
most clever in its originality. 1t is
merely a linen trimming. but linen
bands and embroidered linen bands
are no longer a novelty, though they
are mOdish: but cut-out odd designs
in linen, finished with a buttOn-hole
stitch and appliqued upon the skirt CT
waist, are new and exceedingly eff
fective.
A plain white linen waist or even a
silk waist takes on a fetching new
beauty when IL is trimmed, for in
stance. with clover-leaves Of green
linen, the shading filed in with an
em5rOidery-stitch as cleverly as If it
were hand-painted. The clover-leaf
applique is used TO good effect TO cut
line the yoke. TO trim the sleeves, and
one lucky four-leaf clover gives an
original touch TO the belt in trent
These clOver-leaves also make a styl-
lish trimming for a dark blue taffeta
shirt-walst suit.-August Woman's
Companion.

He BOUGHT the DOG.

A certain Office holder decided TO
buy a dog. In reply to his ad a man
called at his Office with an intelligent
looking animal, that he Immediately
took a fancy TO, though he deemed it
advisable TO first inquire into some
thing OF its characteristics.
What can he do?" he asked.
"Oh, SIR, he can do anything. If
you've lost anything, sir, he'll go d.
rect to the place where you lost it.
He'll"
By the way, I just missed my
glove. Do you s'pose he could find
it?"
Certainly. sir. Just let him sniff
at your hand"
The Office holder held his hand TO
the dogs nose, and the animal trotted
serenely OF. Presently he returned,
and with a joyous wagging of the tail
deposited his offering at the office
holders feet.
MY sash ribboni" cried a high,
sweet voice, my sash ribbon! The

man, dived into his pocket, and hand
ed out a bill.

THE STRAND.

A Strand in any other capital than
London would be an impossibility.
Then. even in its shabbiness, it was
not without a chance picturesqueness;
il had its points of view from which
the irregular houses and capricious
skyline seemed designed for the bene-
fit OF the artist; the London smoke and
dirt had lent IL a magical mellow tone;
and there were seasons and hours
when the London atmosphere and the
London light turned 1t into the golden
Strand OF Henley's Voluntary. More
than this. even in it's shabbiness, il had
an irresistible fascination that !, for
my part, would find it hard 10 define,
though I have felt it with the rest.
Certainly If every one VINO knows Lon
don knows the Strand. every one who
loves London loves the Strand. And
so it has always been, from the days
when Pepys went fioundering through
its mud. when DR.. Johnson watched
the tide OF human existence" ebbing
and flowing toward Charing Cross,
when Charles Lamb shed tears I'm

Joy" down TO the more immediate
days when Tennyson could never come
