DrH attic Appreciation.

One night last spring, says Lippin-
colts, a stock company was playing
"Othello" to large and enthusiastic
audience. At the point in the fifth act
where Othello cries, Its too late?"
and smothers Desdemmona with pill
low, the audience was aroused to a
high pitch of excitement. Suddenly a
burst of convulsive laughter pealed
down from the gallery. Othello at first
paid no attention to the disturbance
and went on with his lines: mot dead!
not yet quite dead!" when another and
more upoarious guffaw, coupled with
more contagious giggling of hundred
women struck terror to the hearts of
the actors and made the continuance
of the performance impossible. Othel-
10 arouse jim arage, strobe down the
stage, and called down the curtain. Z
Next morning while the leading man
was at breakfast, the waitress who
brought the dishes whispered apollo
getically: Perhaps am to blame for
the trouble at the play last night, SIR
How is that?" inquired the actor
with frown, for he had Just finished
reading the morning paper and had re
ceived a severe blow to his pride.

ed, "bpt really couldn't help laughing

DONOVAN LEADS PITCHERS.
''XVild Bill'' Suffers Only Two Defeats
This Season.

Chicago-"Wild BiI1'' Donovan of
Detroit continues in the van of the
American league pitchers. Donovan
has snatched off fourteen victories.
and is charged with only two defeats.
Frank Smith of Chicago, is a good
second, Bender, the Athletics Indian,
is third and Addie JOSS stands fourth.
Perhaps the best showing of all has
been made by old "Cy'' Young of Bos-
ton. Working for a team that has a
percentage of only .423, Young has
the remarkable winning average of
$40. The veteran has taken sixteen
games and lost nine. He stands bet
ter than Wadde1l or White, both con-
sidered great fingers, and who have
strong teams back of them.
Waddell stands first in the matter
of strikeouts, having famed 1913 men
in twenty-three games. Mulltn fan
ned 10S and Plank 107. Frank
Smith of Chicago, issued seventy-eight
passes in twenty-four games and Lieb-
hardt was next with sixty-three in
twenty-three games.
In the American league not a
pitcher has worked a no-hit game.
Joss, Dygert, Hughes and Chesbro
have held their opponents to a single
safety in one game each. Barley,
Philadelphia; Gehring, Washington,
and Bernhard. Cleveland, have not
won game.

McGRAw Is AWFUL SORE.
Giants Beds Are Not Made OF Roses
These Days.

Giants Beds Are Not Made OF Roses
These Days.
st. Louis.-Things are not running
smoothly in the camp OF the Glants;
McGraw seems unable to keep control
of his men. Chickering's, severe tongue
lashings and open INSTRUMENTATION
mark the dealings between the man
ager and his players. Some OF the men
holding down regular positions seem
to have lost interest in the pennant
race, knowing full well that they are
marked for the minor league sale
block this fall.
Catcher Bowerman took the lid off
the tempest in a teapot" during Sat
urdays game. Scores Of local fans
heard McGraw's s'.cal down. OF his
player for coaching Mccain to stop at
third base, when. in the judgment OF
the little manager, the first baseman
could have scored.
The scathing remarks OF the man
ager were heard in silence by the New
York player for at least three min
utes. Then he told McGraw a lew
things.
I'm not to blame for the games
you have lost of late,' said Bowerman.
Il have played good ball. and still am
willing to try to play good ball olo
my duty and will not stand for your
insolent and unjust call-downs."
More verbal lashings from McGraw.
Finally he told his catcher to go to
the clubh ouse and put on his street
clothes.
"And I won't do that. either" was
Bowerman's reply.
If characterization and emphatic
language are not enough to turn Nc
Graw's head into a field of snowy
white, then the mistakes of his $4,000
beauty, Larry Doyle, the new second
baseman, may help But the tone
used by McGraW in discussing plays
with his infielder upon the latter's re-
turn to the bench is the antithesis of
that used in talking to other players.
With Doyle he is as gentle as mother
directing a child of sunny disposition.
Doyle is hitting we'll, but it seems
that if there is to be anything Of
costly nature resulting from mis-
play or lack of quick thinking, the new
second baseman unfortunately is the
keystone of the play.

oRBY WILL RACE AGAIN.
But Chances of Winning the st. Leger
Are Not Good.


Dublin.-Orby, this years Derby
winner, was sent home after the Glen
cairn Cup race and has been taking
gentle exercise since. Richard Crok-
er, the horses owner, arrived from
England yesterday, and at once visit
ed the horse. 1t is true that Orby suf-
fered from a slight chill and also that
he was slightly strained in his off leg
near the hook joint. But he has now
almost completely recovered, and it is
confidently believed he will be as fit
as ever within three days.
The statement that he will be
struck out of his future engagements
is baseless. Mr.. Croker, who regrets
that money was lost on Orby recently,
will run the horse as engaged, and Is
confident that his scolors will be vic
torious. ne - "
Croker's chances of winning the st.
Leger, the last Of the three English
classics of the racing season, have fall
len away virtually to nothing. DR..
Frederick McCabe, x Cookers racing
manager, says that ait is 5doubtfui
whether sOrby will even be a. starter
in that race. o'-fvv esss So e rotFz> s.
Orby is suffering from a return or
an old affection of the kidneys. Mr..
Croker did not discover this until the
horse was so badly beaten in the At
lantic Stakes at Liverpool, when he
finished last in field of four.
