worked with her, rubbing her hands.
and in twenty minutes l gave her an
other dose. BY this time we were al

cago, to say nothing of the wonderful
squirt of the Phillies, is something
strange in National league annals, and
from present prospects it appears as
though none of the teams is going to
let up.
The wiseacres still pick Chicago to
win, and they may be right, but the
manner in which Pittsburg and New
York are travelling along makes one
believe that Mr.. Chances bunch Of
ball tossers will certainly have to hus-
tie to repeat the dose they administer
ed last season.
The Cubs seem to lack the dash with
which they were playing last year and
have suffered from many injuries,
which must necessarily have impaired
the strength of their personnel.
Chance is playing but occasionally,
Evers was out of the game with
very bad ankle, Kings catching has
been away below par. and the batting
strength of the club has been very ma
terially weaker than in past seasons.
Most important of all Brown is the

The Chicago crowds have lost con-
fdence in Pfeister; Overall has been
bit hard quite frequently; Reulbach's
control has been very erratic, and
Fraser, while a good "spit'' BAH pitch
err, is not so much to be feared.
1t will be impossible this year for the
Cubs to rest up their men and wait for
the big series. content in n big margin
of victories. They will have to keep
working rs the American league teams
are doing now. When the big series
comes along they will be as likely to
blow up as their rivals.
New York appears to have shade
the best OF it. inasmuch as it will

Pirates or Cubs. and this should help
considerably, for even this year Man

It's Il toss-up, and then Philadelphia
