American League Clubs Standing.
National League Clubs Standing.

The Senators came out of the west last
night, reaching their hotel about 10 O'Clock,
after long journey by water and rail from
Detroit. The team went by boat from De-
troit to Buffalo and then by the Pennsyl-
vania route home. Manager Donovan re-
ported everybody in good shape, and that
he was pleased by the way the team per-
formed on the western trip. Every game
played was a good one, but 1t is difficult to
get players to work their limit when their
team is in a position that cannot be bet
tered by winning games. If there had been
anything at stake Manager Donovan said
he believed the Senators would have won
big majority of the games played on the
last western trip.
Second Baseman Mil was the subject of
conversation between a Star reporter and
several members of the team, and there
was nothing but praise for the new man.
He is extremely fast on his feet, knows
the game thoroughly, and, in addition, can
hold his own with the bat.
The Athletics got into the city last even
ing about 7:30, coming from Cleveland.
They have six games scheduled with the
Senators, starting with doube-header to-
day. Waddell will pitch the first game
against Tom Hughes for the locals, while
big Chief Bender will clash with Case
Patten in the second. Tomorrow another
double-header will be played, and the local
fans will have a chance to see Jack
Townsend work the spit ball to perfec-
ton. Catcher Kittredge is responsible for
the assertion that the Delaware boy is
right now the equal of Chesbro, as he has
full control of this puzzling innovation
and that he is the coming pitcher of the
country.

HIGH-CLASS GOLF.
Walter ]. Travis Once More Back in
Fine Form

After rest since Baltusrol, where his
American title passed to Chandler Egan
Walter j. Travis made his temperance
at the open tournament yesterday of the
Nassau Country Club, Long Island, and
won the low-score medal in a manner
worthy of the British amateur champion.
His long game, bar two holes, was strong
and effective, while it would have done
Maxwell, Hutchinson or any of the Brit
ishers good to watch him put.
Next to Travis, who did 159, were his
old rival, Douglas, at 165. and the new
rival, Travers, interscholastic champion,
at 1853. The top score to qualify for the
first cup was 1856.
A storm seemed gathering in the morn
ing, and so only fifty-fve of the ninety
four entries drove off. They found the
putting greens slow and tricky from the
rain over night, with cold and furious
wind blowing across the long holes.
Every one blamed the weather and re-
turned high card save Travis, who led
with II, the premier score of the day. In
the afternoon Travis did not do so well by
five strokes, although the afternoon was
bright and sunny.
The cross wind was at it's worst on the
50-yard second hole, and Travis was only
able to get and a here. Playing the
ninth in the morning, he topped the drive,
and it cost him e, but the in holes were
played in faultless style for a 80. He rim

In the afternoon, after the on the sec
ond, Travis also had a Z on the tenth
where he pulled his drive out of bounds.
The distances were the same as in the
national championship at Nassau last fall
--6O37 yards-but the course has been
improved by free placing of trap and
pit hazards to compel straight drives and
second shots. The turf was in splendid
shape, giving the best Of lies, and after
the sun had dried out the greens the put
ting conditions were perfect

President Ban Johnson of the American
League has all along been an advocate of
the 140-game schRdu1e and will be on
hand with vigorous protest against
anything calling for a longer period of
play when the schedule makers consider
plans.
Opening about April Is and closing
about September 15fwill be found a far
better arrangement0f from the points of
view OF public and players and mag
nates," says Johnson.
We should not think of anything else
for 1905. 9s.1l
The experiment with a longer schedule
this year will prove, costly in the end, es-
pecially to those clubs which have not
been making a great deal of money and
must keep up heavy expenses during this
end of the season. a period that does not
bring fat receipts in at the gate.
Il am strictly in favor of the shorter
season for the regular championship
schedule. for that reason. and because of
the fact that 1t will give time for extra
games. both before the opening and after
the close"

FOR SHORTER SEASON.
President johnson Wants 40 Games
for Next Season.

Shortening the major leagues schedule
of games to the old number-140-for
next season is being advocated by base
ball officials and in all probability will be
ordered by the American and National
League schedule makers when they get
together to figure out the playing calen-
dar of 1905.
Trial of the longer schedule of 154
games this season has convinced most of
the magnates that more than 40 games
are both undesirable and Improbable.
Besides costing the men behind the
clubs something in the way of money,
the fourteen extra games tackled on this
year are dragging the playing season out
to an uninteresting end.
Instead of ending on or about Septem-
Der i5, the 1904 schedule will not be
closed until October 10, and that means
nearly whole month of play in fall
weather that kills interest and patronage

Philadelphia Nationals Big Loss.

An important meeting of the board Of
directors of the Philadelphia National
League base ball club was held in the
Quaker City yesterday afternoon. The
presidents report. showing a loss of $50 600
on the season, was accepted and the d.
rectors decided to pay the Indebtedness.
There will be about $1,000 more to pay
out. including the last instalIments Of the
players salaries for the year. President
Potter will probably resign at the next
meeting, having accepted a businc IS offer,
and a new president will be elect d at the

that it will be decided to offer the club for

they should be washed thoroughly in

VALUE OF LEMONS.
How This Fruit May BE Used For
Beauty and HeaIth.

beauty ana Health.
1t is now timely to administer to all
women little sermon on the value of
lemons on the dressing table. says the
Chicago Inter Ocean. If you appre-
ciated its many uses you would have a
lemon always at hand. In the morn
ing, before you are out of bed, its use
tulAess begins not merely as a beauti-
fer. but as a medicine, for the juice of
half lemon squeezed into a tumbler
Of water mo sugar. is a most excellent
cure for bilious complaints.
The fingers or finger nails may have
stains that refuse to yield to soap and
water, in which case a little lemon
juice will usually prove successful. Be
fore manicHring the nails you should
always soak them for at least five min
utes in a basin of water in which are
few drops of lemon juice The skin
which grows so extensively around the
nails is pushed back by orange wood
sticks first dipped in lemon juice. And
as for the teeth, no more effective
cleanser or purer mouth wash can be
found than half a dozen drops of lemon
juice in a wineglass of water.
After washing the hands lemon Juice
and water make a splendid bleach, but
it is a fact that lemon juice pure
darkens the skin, so do not make the
mistake Of rubbing in plain lemon
juice instead of diluting it with water.
Lemon juice and glycerin are good for
chapped hands.
If you have a hoarse voice in the
morning lemon juice squeezed into soft
sugar till it is like a sirup and few
drops of glycerfn added relieves the
hOarseness at once. while cold on the
chest or consumption itself finds a
formidable enemy in the following pre-
scription: Squeeze the juice of three
lemons over three whole eggs, shell and
all. In two or three days time the shell
will have sOftened because of the eff
feet of the lemons acid on the lime
composition of the shell. Then add a
pint Of rum and pound Of pulverized
brown sugar candy. You can bottle
this and take a spoonful every morning
upon rising. 1t il simply wonderful as

I'm no pessimist or croaker;

For a pocketful Of money
High will boost you with your honey;
Butcher, baker, banker, broker,

For the man who holds the joker

BE he ugly as blue blazes,

At his diamonds CLEAN and glitter,
And she whispers in a litter:
"What handsome fellow, Honey;
Worth a wagon load Of money.
Though it's whispered that at poker
He is just a tritie rash"
Still the man who holds the joker
Is the man who has the cash.
"How in radstreet is he rated"'
Is the question that's debated.
When a fellow wOOes a lady
He may be a trifle shady,
But they whisper: "AIints of money;
He's the one to capture, Honey"
Though he is q grabbed croaker,
Never fear, he'll land a mash,
