HIGHLANDERs WERE vICTORs

has stated that if Walter Clarkson could ever learn to win out a game where his team had a lead of one run in the ninth inning he would be a real pitcher.
 Last night Chesbro pronounced the former Harvard lad great" Clarkson pitched a really fine game against Hughey Jennings Baltimores yester- day afternoon. allowing them but six scattered hits. And during the nine innings he struck. out thirteen of the Eastern League penant chasers.
 The Highlanders were themselves fooled by the Oriole twirlers. for they could accumulate but five hits. two of which were rapped out by the dashing Chase.
 After the game all of Grifiith's team expressed themselves as much in favor of Hughey Jennings chances of win ming the Pat Powers pennant. They think that the most violent opposition will be handed to them by Jack Dunne's Providence aggregation.
 All of Frank Farrelrs men are fn the pink of shape. and Griff has an- nounced that Chesbro would go in against the Washington team in the opening game in the Capitol City to- day. The team left for the Senators stamping grounds last night The score:

wonder accomplished by the ancients
which cannot be done now.
Not SO many years ago 1t was quite
commonly asserted that modern work
men could not quarry or, having quar-
ried, could not handle stones as large
as the monollths of Egypt, and the
writer has heard public speaker Of

20 handle with modern Implements
such large stones as were used In the
pyramids or to join them as perfectly
Is they are Joined there. Yet, when oc-
casion arose, larger stones than any Of
Tie larger monoliths themselves were
transported not only to the sea, but
icross it, and erected In England,
France and America. and there are in
diriduals today who might, If they
chose, cause the transportation to and
erection in this country OF the largest
pyramids or build new ones ten times
larger and more durable. Pyramids
are not being generally built nowadays
because they are not in line with the
trend Of modern ambition; that's all.
1t is very doubtful If a Damascus
blade would stand half as severe
