| Minor leagues when nobody was look
ing prevents promotion this year. But
| the Jimpson league will profit little
thereby. Baseball in this town is dead
so far as the impending season is con-
.cerned. The writer ventures the as
sertion, and this assertion is buttressed
| by the opinion of dozens of the most
ardent fans in town, that the attend
| ance at the local park will not be so
per cent of what it was last season.
Nobody cares what happens in the
JimpSon Weed league. Nobody cares
| whether Topeka finishes in the first or
last place. There will be no local in
terest in the race and anybody can
have the rag 1t makes no differ
ence to the local fans. Meanwhile
Leavenworth, Webb City, Springfield,
Oklahoma City and other towns which
have been getting bread and butter for
their teams off the crowds that turn
out to the games in Topeka will have
to make other arrangements. This
town declines to longer be their meal
ticket OF course, the detection at the
gate will fall heaviest on Crow and
Cooley, who are altogether blameless
in the matter. They have simply been
ground between the millstones of the
national constitution. But the town is
tired of the methods of Shively and of
the crossroads style of baseball in
vogue in the -Jimpson league and the
crowds will. no longer turn out. There
will be some disposition to critfcise
Cooley for going away, but nobody can
really blame him. Cooley has a chance
to manage a real ball team in a real
league at salary right around 1900 a
month. There is no chance for any
body to make any money in Topeka
with the town in the Jimpson league"
Oklahoma News: The Topeka team
is not playing the game it did the first
visit here by a long shot. Then the in
field was lightning fast and the out
field was sure. Men on bases ran like
wild fire. Now the infielders juggle
them, the outer garden men let flies
drop and the base running is no bet
ent from the team is destined for a
second division place.
The following standing which in
cludeS yesterdays reports is official
and was Issued by President Shively.
The following table shows the number
of games which each club has won
this table it will be seen that Joplin
is Topeka's worst enemy closely fol-
lowed by Webb City and Hutchinson.
Wichita so far has been the easiest
picking for the locals, only four games
having been lost to the Jobbers by
the Champs. But five have been lost
20 Oklahoma City, Springfield and
Leavenworth. Wichita has not lost
game to Webb City or Springfield. Ac-
cording to the following, the game be-
tween Topeka and Leavenworth which
is under dispute, has evidently been
given to the Convicts, as the following
table includes all the games of the sea-
son and judging from the number OF
games won, Leavenworth gets the
game. They certainly need 1t. But
Topeka needs a few about as bad.

DONOVAN BEST PITCHER.
'sViId BiH'' of the Tigers Leads With
Smith q Close Second.

Chicago, Aug. 6.-''WiId Bill" Dono-
van of Detroit and Frank Smith of the
Worlds Champions. are having a mer-
ny battle for the premiership honors
in pitching in the American league.
While Donovan has the advantage in
percentage. Smith has won four more
games than the Tiger lad, but the lat
ter has lost but two. the Chicago
pitcher four. This is a fine battle be-
tween the two, while Joss is third. Had
Addie been as fortunate as the two
leaders in having a compact team be-
hind him, there is no question that the
Human Slat' would be on top today,
for he has lost but six in twenty-four
games, six being shutouts. four of
which went to his credit He has also
been the steadiest of the three. allow
ing but thirty-three passes in thirty
three games. In fact. he has a better
average in this respect than any of the
other twirlers.
While the Maps are on the decline,
the same must be so with the pitchers.
and as a result, their good standing
has taken a Shrinkage. Still Hess and
Bernhard are the only two Napoleons
who have lost more games than they
have won. while Rhoades is just on the
brink.

CHAMPS WILL FINISH WELL
Tim Surnane's Gossip-Li<es Cobb of
! u - Detroit. -,


Boston. Aug. 6.-The race for the
American League championship has
grown intensely interesting with the
| setback of the champion white Sox"
and the collapse of the Cleveland club,
thus giving Detroit and the Athletics
a splendid chance to forge to the front,
says Tim Murnane-
The knowing ones have great faith
in the Chicago boys making a supreme
effort to pull through should they man
this eastern trip, and the chances are
they will pull themselves together. The
makeup of the team has not changed,
and having gone through the fire once,
the ''Sox" will make a lot of trouble
before striking their colors.
The work that Cobb, the Detroit out
fielder, did in this city forced the i'm
preston on me that the game has no
more valuable player today in the out
field than this young man.
AS a grand batsman, fine fielder,
superb thrower and daring base run
ner, with a disposition to go the full
distance, have seen nothing finer than
Mr.. Cobb for several years. He is in
the same class with MCGEE of the Phil
lies. One player like Mr.. Cobb can
turn very ordinary team into win
ner.
This reminds me of the great ball
playing that John Thoney is now doing
for the Toronto club. Thoney was tried
out by the American League and SEEM
now such good judges as Jack Dunn.
Joe Kelley and Hugh Duffy tell me that
Thoney's alI-round work is phenomenal
and that the Boston Americans have
certainly secured wonder in this
man. Just before Boston closed the
deal for Thoney the New York Giants
made an offer of $500 for the man.
On hearing of New York's desire to
land the player, President John ].
Taylor took the first train for Montreal,
Canada, where he met the Toronto
people and closed the deal, giving up
a big slice of money beside several ball
players.
The Detroit Tigers put up fine ar
ticle of ball on the last trip to his city.
The biggest disappointment was the
failure of Hugh Jennings to remain on
the playing field. No less than three
times Manager Jennings was forced to
quit his unique coaching methods.
From two to seven innings was the
extent of Hugh's coaching efforts Silk
would not allow the use or
even a small silver whistle, an imple-
ment of torture that Mr.. Jennings
brought in to use when his voice gave
out on the lines
The patrons of the game rather. en-
joyed Jennings work, and couldn't

will be only a matter of a short time
before some one will spring a mega
phone, thereby making a farce of the
game"
