Muggsy's New Workers Today.

The recent trouble between the
Chicago and New York teams over
umpires will make the invasion Of
the Giants all the more interesting
today. The coming series of four
games is also interesting. because it
will be the crucial effort of the New
York players to down Chicago and
win the pennant. Fearing that
fans might insult or injure the New
York players, the police have taken
every precaution to prevent trouble
by providing 10 policemen and
scores of detectives as a bodyguard
for the visiting players. McGraw,
who was suspended for using obscene
language towards Umpire tombstone,
may not appear on the field Every
precautiOn is being made for the
record crowd of the season. A big
demonstration is expected from a
delegation from the board of trade,
who have secured all of the boxes
and will decorate them with flags
bearing McGraw's picture, with
streaks of yellow across the face of
it,

Herrera Knocked Out.

In the seventh round of the fourth
battle between Neary and Herrera,
Charles Neary of Milwaukee knocked
out the Mexican in the Schlitz park
last night. The fight like former
ones was a case of slug from the start
and both men were doing nicely
when Neary caught Herrera with a
hard right and ended the contest
Neary adopted Nelson's tactics of
boring in while the Mexican stepped
around the ring and sought to hand
out one of his favorite right hand
wallops.

Sox Win Final Game of Boston Series

The Sox made it three straight
from Boston by winning yesterdays
game by the score of 4 to 3. Boston
put Young in the box in the hope of
getting one game of the series and
his pitching was so effective that in
six of the nine innings the Chicago
boys did not get a hit Boston out
batted the Sox and made the only
extra bases in the game, but even
then they could not win. The White
Sox were handicapped by the alb
sence of George Davis, who was
under the weather and Tan
nehill went to short, where he play
ed a brilliant game. In the sixth in
ming Boston took tne lead, but Chi
cago overcame it in the seventh and
in the ninth broke the tie when Sui
Ivan hit safely, stole second and
scored on Tannehill's single to right.

sixth, drove a swift liner towards the

it with one hand. The last game
With Boston was spoiled by the
Spuds. who rushed throught the first
five innings fearing that a threaten

fielding was brisk and at times sen
sational. Casey for Brooklyn and

splendid stops The real doings be-
gan in the seventh when Brooklyn
took a decided brace and in the ninth
when Casey opened the inning with
double. Lumley got a single to

Carthy ripped of a double. A home
run would have meant tied score
but the ball went straight TO Evers.
and the game ended then and there.

the backbone of a most effective
story that David Higgins and Bald

play as above, a play possessing Won
derful accumulative interest, a de-
lightful love atmosphere, and the
trials of two extremely young lovers
with the frowning parent and at
tendant vicissitudes of persistent
youth; also the more mature love
interest of the hero and heroine. In
the comedy part of His Last Dol

been more than happy in their
efforts, much laughter being evolved
by one, kaufman, mercurial He
brew who in his endeavors to follow
the advice Of his Father, Always

Chicago has taken on a new degree
of automobile fever in its worship of
that wonderful young star, Elsie
Janis, in The Vanderbilt Cup" with
the result that the beautiful theatre,
the Colonial, is playing to extraordi-
nary summer business, merited in
the unusual attraction and praise
worthy material provided by this
lively and satisfying play. Graceful,
comely and capable in every scene,
Miss Janis fairly charmes her audi
ence away by her versatility and
originality, and her limitations are
the finest bit of mimicry ever seen on
the stage. She works from begin
ming to end of the performance and
the strenuous demands on her ply
steal capacity are so great that it has
been determined to omit Sunday
night performances temporarily dur
ing the current engagement. Much
of the success of the play is due to
the splendid support of such veteran
players as Otis Harlan, Harry V Don
nelly, Jacques Kruger and a number
Of others, and pretty Edith Decker,
energetic Ella HattOn and several
members of the cast have become
great favorites. The announcement
of a complimentary special matinee
for seventeen-year-old girls on Mon
day, August 81, has sent a flutte1
through the army of Janis admirers
and the event promises to prove one
of the most unique and interesting
affairs in the history of the stays.

REPORT At NEXT MEETING
MAY ASK FOR $1,000 FUND
Special Committee May Recommend
That Council Help Reid Memorial
Hospital to that Extent Each
Year.

At the next meeting of the city
council, the committee appointed to
investigate the financial condition of
the Reid Memorial Hospital, will make
a report, and 1t is understood that they
will recommend that a sum amount
ing to from $1,000 to $1,000 be annu-
ally appropriated by the city for it's
maintenance. The general public
seems to think that the city shall do
it's part in aiding in the support of the
magnificent gift presented to Rich
mond by d. G. Reid and it is thought
that council will appropriate any rea-
sonable sum that the investigating
committee may recommend.
]. L. Rupe, of the hospital board of
trustees stated last night he was not
at liberty to state the exact sum which
the investigating committee will rec
ommend to be annually appropriated
by the city, but he said that it wous
be most reasonable. Whatever is
appropriated the people of Richmond
will receive in return every cent plac.
ed at the disposal of the hospital. IT
is our desire to take care of as many
charity patients as possible and with
the assistance of the city, this will
be possible as we can accommodate a
large number and the best of care is
assured to all patients.
