Notes of the Game

Heydon's catch of a foul was spectacular,
but annoyed the victim George Davis, so
much that he delivered oratory at great
length and O'Loughlin had to chase him
away.
Silk OLoughlin Is a great favorlte with
the Chicago crowds and got a hearty hand
when he appeared.
If the fans could have their way Hickman
would be member of the Sox at once
They like him and always cheer him at
bat. while his long hit in the second game
was as freely applauded as If 1t had been
made by one of their own tribe
Patten regained his Buffalo" For years
he had the Sox we'll under control but they
have been soaking him this season and
pasted him good in the last three games he
pitched against them.
Netherlands throwing was awful and the
Washingtons stole a cargo Of bases. Eddie's
arm does not seem to get the range Of Sec
ond at all.
There was lot Of spiking done during the
series and several men on each side got
hurt, Altizer and Warner getting 1t the
worst. AS the teams are the best of friends,
which goes to show the dangers of the
spikes on general principles.
Donohue made a wonderful pickup and
Davis a superb stop. To offset these doings
Shipke made har-raising stop in the sec
ond game and Mil stretched a mile to start
a double play.
Shipke Is not nervous and quarrels with
the umpire like a real old-tmer. He looks
like a genuine find.
Better luck in the next" said Cantillon
Guess We were jOnahed here all right"

carried or the leading honors last season
are again roosting at the top OF the COL
umn.
In the American League the Chicago
White Sox will have a battle to the finish
to stave off Cleveland. Detroit and the Ath-
letics. This time last year the New York
Americans were in the thick OF the fray.
but this season they have been supplanted
by the Detrots. Jennings team has GER
tainly been the surprise Of the American
League race.
In the National League the Chicago Cubs
are doing better to date than they did last
season. There has been no indication so
far that the Cubs will not spring a re-
peater and again land the pennant. Their
percentage now Is better than 1t was in
the middle of July last seasan. and 1t was
in the closing weeks of the race that they
made their biggest harvest
AS compared with this time a year ago
New York is doing almost exactly the same.
Pittsburg has fallen behind quite consider
able the Phillies are better Off in games
won and lost by a good margin: Brooklyn
has improved slightly and Boston has made
the most notable gain of all Cincinnati
and st. Louis are behind their mark of one

CANTILLON LETS
OUT "NIG" PERRINE


Special Dispatch to The Star.
CHICAGO. July 15.-Cantllon and his men
escaped from Chicago last night with no
games out Of five. 1t might have been
worse-they might have lost their lives.
Perrine has gone to Minneapolis, and the
problem of what to do with so many men Is
simmered down a trif1e. Comiskey says he
will never sign waivers on Hickman. and
that he can use Charles any time that Can
tillon will give him up. A trade was ex-
pected. and will probably materialize in the
next few days. Just what men Commy
can give for Hickman is uncertain.
The passing of Perrine was quite dis
appointment for he looked more than good
at the start, and 1t a question as to
whether he or Mil would stick. Mil has
shown better batting form than last season,
and works like a beaver at any position
though a hard and willing performer. was

One thing sure, the departure of Perrine
goes to show that there was nothing In the
talk that Canttllon wanted to fire all the
old players in favor of his new accessions.

Look at the gang Of hitters they can turn

NEW WORLDS RECORD.
IN HAMMER THROW

NEW YORK, July 15.-Matthew J. Nc
Grath. the great weight thrower Of the
New York Athletic Club, established new
worlds record yesterday afternoon in throw
ing the 16-pound hammer at the Tipperary
Mems games at Celtic Park. He hurled the
missile ITS feet 8 inches. beating the record
mark made by his cousin. John Flanagan.
three years ago, by 2 feet inches.
McGrath Is q Tipperary man, and in prep
aration for these games the giant police
man has trained daily for several weeks
on an empty lot opposite his home in the
suburbs Of Brooklyn. He was anxious to
perform his best and left nothing undone
that would perfect his condition.
He had as opponents two worthy rivals
in Lee Talbot, the former Mercersburg
Academy champion. and Henry Kersburg
of the New York Athletic Club. Just be-
fore the Winged Foot" champion appeared
for competition 1t was announced that he
was in condition to do his best, and that he
would try for worlds mark.
After his two opponents had shot the
hammer through the air to the distance of
more than 100 feet McGrath had his first
trial After three whirlwind turns he let
go Of the handle and the weight shot
through the air to a distance of ITO feet
This was sufficient to win the event. but
was more than two feet behind the record.
Again he took the three turns and hurled
the ha miner through the air. This time it
went inches farther than his first throw.
A third trial and he had reached distance
only few inches behind Flanagan's mark.
The fourth trial was less than an inch from
the record throw. With more speed in his
turns than on his previous throws he turned
for the fifth and last try. When the ham,
mer left his hand 1t skinned through the
air scarcely ten feet above the ground.
Farther and farther it journeyed and ap-
peared as though it was never going to
land. such terrific speed did 1t travel at.
When 1t hit the ground 1t was better than
was the worlds best throw and more than
ten feet better than Talbott's.
While the hammer was on Its journey
mighty cheer went up. but after the throw
had been carefully measured and 1t was
found that McGrath was worlds champion
the $1,000 spectators cheered for several
minutes.
Lee Talbot was the first to congratulate
the new champion. With a smile that
frightened his entire face the husky giant
slapped Talbot on the back and wished him
better luck in his next attempt. Talbot
lacked the strength, however, and his final
throw was several feet behind his former
one.

SUNDAY SCHOOL
LEAGUE BATTERS
MoreIand Practically Leads
With a 442 Percentage.

Although the boys Of the First Christian
Church are In the lead in the Sunday
School League. a compilation OF the bat
ting averages shows that the Ninth Street
aggregation Is far In advance with stick
work. On the seasons play, up to last
Tuesday, the latter team has an average
Of .305. while the league leaders are nearly
forty points behind. Bethany, at that time
third in the league, was also third in bat
ting with an average OF $40, while the
Rhode Island Methodist team was swatting
average was .197.
Only two other players in the whole
league have a better average than More
land Of the Ninth. and the latter is really
entitled to first honors because he has
played in all games but one. has been at
bat fifty-two times and has a total Of
twenty-three bingles and eight stolen bases
to his credit. He also has scored more runs
than any other player. so that his grand
average with the willow Is .442. Stuckert,
Moreand's team mate on the Ninth, Is a
close second with an average Of .423. He
played in fifteen games. was at bat fifty
nine times and made twenty-five hits, one
sacrifice and pilfered five sacks. Moreland
scored twenty-eight runs and Stuckert
eighteen. Eight Of the Ninth boys have
done better than 300 with the stick. while
only four Of the batsmen Of the league lead
ers have pounded their way into the 300
class.
LIE Mat Of Bethany and Evans Of Ninth
stand out conspicuously among the nimble-
footed base stealers. each Of them having
thirteen pilfered sacks to their record.
Shedd of Bethany stole twelve. Webb Of
the same team eleven and Clements and
Holman Of First ten each. For the lead
ing team In the line Of stolen bases Beth

CHAMPION HACKET
KEEPS STATE TITLE

NEW YORK. July 15.-In straight sets
Harold H. Hackett of the West Side Ten
mis- Club yesterday won the challenge round
for the title Of lawn tennis champion of
New York state. The victory of Hackett
on the courts of the New York Athletic
Club over Herbert L. Westfall of the Kings
County Lawn Tennis Club gives the holder
the second leg on the silver bowl offered
last year by the Staten Island Cricket and
Tennis Club.
There was a big gallery. The expectation
was that Hacket would be able to defend
his title because he play the style of
game which battles a hard driver like West
fall.
Westfall is renowned for fighting quality,
and in spite Of being overmatched he be-
gan the third set with all the strength and
skill at his command. He played about the
same as in the first set smearing the ball
everywhere at top speed. Hackett naturally
had to yield to such tactics In the early
part Of the set. and the challenger carved
out q lead at So almost before any one
could realize that he had a set SO nearly in
hand Hackett's fine knowledge Of the
game came to his rescue here. He did not
have to coax Westfall to the net, but as
the latter came up the ball went sailing
over his head out Of reach for several ex-
celIent points. Hackett's effort resulted In
the winning OF two games. which squared
the set at GALL
The remainder Of the match was short
and sharp. Once on even terms for the
third set Hackett turned loose his full bat
terry. He took the next two games cleverly,
Westfall having little or no chance to make
a fight Of 1t. The score of the third and
deciding set was rs in favor of the holder.
A third victory will give him ownership OF
the trophy.
The New York state title has been in
competition since 1891, although tourna-
ments have not been held every year. Pre-
viOus winners were: 1891 F. H. Hovey;
1892, w. P. Knapp: 1893. Clarence Hobart:
