Jim Delehanty Leading League
At Bat, While Club Is Sixth
Our Second Sacker Hitting .347, With Ganley Next
Washington Fifth in Fielding Best Slug
ger-ChaSe Heads Base SteaIers.

The American League batsmen have
been soaking the ball at a lively pace
OF late, and, outside OF the SOx and
Athletics. who are stu light with the
warclu0. are swatting at much bet
ter clip than last season.
A composite record OF the league
shows a batting gait of .248, which Is
highly creditable. The reconstructed
Boston team leads in the hitting with a
percentage OF .266-showing that there
must be 81 screw loose somewhere else
IN the club. New York is second, De-
troit third, and Washington sixth.
Cleveland leads IN extra bases, and
New York in baserunning.
The sox have a good margin on the
fielding.
Washington has no man on the honor
roll IN baserunning or run getting.
Criss. the Browns pinch hitter, is
the nominal batting leader, but the real
credit on games played and total work
done goes TO Delehsnty, OF Washington,
who is doing the best batting OF his
life. Ball, Mcconnell, Lord, and Thoney,
newcomers, are showing grand batting
form, and are star factors in the per-
Centage columns. Stovall has scored
the greatest number Of runs, and Chase
stolen the most bases.
Jake S-ahl has pushed forward as a
long range slugger and now leads the
league as his friends have beea fer
years declaring he was sure to do.
Twelve pitchers still have faultless
fielding averages. Sullivan heads the
catchers, and Donohue the first base
men. Schaefer tops the second sack
ers, Ferris leads al third. and Turner
at short. Hahn and Hlnchman lead the
Outfielders.

WHITE LOT GAMES
Interstate Commerce and

Joke Contests.
sTANDING o. - CILrRs

The double-header on the White Lot
yesterday was an exhibition OF base
ball as seen in the sandlot league.
Interstate Commerce whipped AgrtcuI-
ture II to 2, and Interior walloped
Postof1ce 10 70 6.
The NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. game was
a comedy, due in part to the failure
Of the Farmers to produce a catcher.
Green. who acted as backstop in the
early part Of the game was a frost, and
the three passed balls charged against
him cost the Farmers as many runs.
Little Mess, the new third baseman,
lately acquired by the Regulators, was
in evidence every minute, and his an
ties when on base proved especially
disconcerting 10 his opponents. and
netted him dvs stolen bases, and three
runs.
Sanders relieved Fields in the second
inning, but the support at his back
was so ragged, and the luck Of baseball
so clearly against him, that he was
soon disheartened.
Second Game.
In the Interior-P ostoh1ce game COM
edy baseball was also in evidence. and

Not Every Woman So Lucky az the
Heroine of This Tale.
In the storeroom that every railroad
maintains for the safe keeping Of lost
articles left in its cars by forgetful
passengers there are always to be
found hundreds of umbrellas. But not
every umbrella left in the cars is lost
long enough to find its way to the lost
department; 1t may fortunately be re-
covered sooner
Here was a woman who had just
stepped from an elevated railroad
train to find it raining, and thus re-
minded:
ooh! my umbrella" she said, and
turning to the train, which had al
ready started along, she added: Wait
a minute!" a request by the train un-
needed.
And yet this woman recovered her
umbrella in moment.
Here it is said another woman,
who was travelling with her, had got
off the car after her, and had gathered
UP her friends umbrella with her own
as she came along.
So this forgetful passenger recov-
cred her umbrella promptly, but not
all are so fortunate; thousands of UNI
brellas left behind by passengers go
to the lost departments every year.

LEON YARDS
WIFE
BY FRANK HURBURT O'HARA
s
Copyright, ky Daily Story Pub. Coz

There are men who abuse their
wives in private and some who mis-
treat them in public; but Leonard did
both in his own peculiar way, until
Amy Leonard was sorry that she ever
had met him. This is a bad thing for
woman, especially a young woman
like Amy Leonard 1t is apt to do
many strange tricks with her; and
when people begin to whisper about
her conduct-well, pity the woman, for
nine times out of ten she is quite as
innocent as you are. Amy Leonard
case was the tenth.
Now, do not mean 10 say that there
was anything wrong with Mrs. Leon
ard, not that But she had come face
to face with the inevitable. 1t was all
due to Leonard himself and his ways.
The woman was worth two or three
Leonards. She was clever and good
looking. She had gone to GreytOWn
when the canal was promised, and
lived with her parents until she met
Leonard. Because he was consul, it
was said that she married him for po
sition. This was not true. She loved
him, and | think he was fond of her.
But Leonard soon took to drinking
more rum than was good for him; an
especially bad thing in the tropics.
Then the breach came and widened,
and the only link seemed to be the
child. When the baby was born. Mrs.
Leonard hoped things would be diff
ferent; but they were not. After this,
she began to ride with de ROode over
the black sand road great deal; also
to dance much with him on occasion;
also, to sit out on the balcony with
him, reading her manuscript aloud.
Wherefore her case was the tenth.
Had the consul ridden with her. or
danced with her, or listened to her
stories, Amy Leonard would not have
looked twice at de ROOde. Wherefore
the consul was to blame.
The stories that Mrs. Leonard wrote
were passably good, but she never
managed to sell one. She was not dis
couraged by this, but kept at the thing.

Bio Gooseberry Pies.

Yesterday was the anniversary OF
the time honored Gooseberry Fair at
Tollesbury and feature of the sur
vival has always been the baking of
huge gooseberry pies. The object was
to give welcome home to fathers and
brothers who have been away on rae
ing or pleasure yachts or fishing, and
each family used to prepare a huge
pie for its Homecoming seafarers in
specially large dishes. There have
been Tollesbury pies that held as
much as a peck or half a peck Of
fruit, and tradition even relates that
one pie was so large that the local
baker had to remove one or two
bricks to get it into his oven.
