CHICAGO NOW NEAR
 2,5O0,O00 PERSONS

CHICAGO. Aug. 27.-Chicago's popu- lation is close to the 2,5e0.009 marx. This WAS indicated today by advance sheets of the city directory for 1909, which will be presented to the public August 27th. Estimates Of population based-on the number of names in the book show an increase Of 37 600 since 1908. In 1908 the population estimate was 2,425,0G The estimate for this year is 2,462, 900.
 The new directory presents in addi- ton the usual odd toll of statistics concerning names-the shortest names the first name. the last name and the number of Smiths and Browns, John sons and Andersons. For unusual ap- pellations Joseph Buttinski, laborer. carries away the palm.
 The total number of names in the alphabetical list Of the directory is 76S COG. This is 10,5o0 more names than were in the volume of year ago. The JoEnsons have the honor of any other family. They are present to total of 7,0S7And that does not include the "aristocracy" Johnston branch, which numbers 524.

SAYS GRIFFITH DESERVES
 THE TITLE OF "0LD FOX"
Cleveland Player Tells Story of New Cincinnati Manager-Latter
 Has New Twister.

I've heard lot of men question why Clark Griffith was called the old Fox" said Wilbur Goode, of the Cleveland team. recently. but think he has the title for his pitch ing keenness alone. He has great reputation as a manager. but you ought to see his foxiness when he pitches.
 'T recall one game in St Louis in 1904, when I was with the New York team for about a. minute and a half. Jack Powers started for us, and about the third or fourth inning blew up. He left the game with none out and the bases full.
 Griffith decided it was about time for him to take hand in the pro eeedings. He entered the box and ac- tuaily talked the Browns out of SCOT ing any of those runs. The first bat ter he accosted with grin and re- called some foolish incident, mean while sneaking in couple of strikes. Then he wasted two and the man on third was out at the plate on a slow roller. He worked the same thing with the following batter and talked him into a double play. He certainly was a star at deceiying the batsmen with slow ball and a slower one"
 Griffith has discovered a new style of delivery that will be just as much of puzzler as the spit ball. The new. 1 fansled delivery has been christened
 the "quoit ball.
 Griffith made his first demonstra-
 ton with the ''quoit ball" with Char. ! ley Sturr doing the receiving. The i famous master of the slow ball has given this new delivery a lot of study
 and as it is something absolutely new, it should prove a sensation. The quoit ball Is started below the i hip. The pitcher takes long swing ' with the back of his hand toward the ! batsman He throws the ball very
 much like a man playing quoits losses
 the quoit. but. of course, he puts s twist on it. for the purpose of fooline i the batter. As the ball leaves his hand. Grif puts a bunch of reverse 1 English on it, and the sphere sails uy i to the plate very much like < hoop with the reverse on it, rolls on the 1 floor
 1 Tt was the funniest kind of a ball ever caught" said Sturr after tht l demonstration.

 The program which the shotgun men Of Tucson have arranged is eer- tainly an excellent one and Hill give three or fcur days that are just crowS- ed with sport The events are ganel- ally sweepstakes and s1 GOO has beea added so that the purses are well worth pulling down.
 In the three days of the main. tour nament there are tweEty-six events. On September 3 there gre ten events and number SIX on the program is a special at thirty targets. the prizes be- ing the McYeagh medal. two men team medal, Copper Queen medal, and the Gwinn trophy. On September 27 there are seven events and among them are the Individual championship at fifty targets with the high man tax ing medal and the purse being dis tributed among four. and the ''Mer- chandise Event at twenty-five targets fer five prizes.

Tt will be the greatest joke tha. ever hit the district. The game be tween the bankers will not be within six city blocks of the Saturday game between the Benedicts and Bachelors ' This was what enc of the players on the married mems baseball team had to say about the baseball game which is to be played on the Warren grounds this afternoon. This is also the gen eral concensus of opinion among play CTS and spectatore5o-be both alike. All are looking for fun and fun there will be when the two teams get to- gether in a catch as catch can game while the sun is still well up this afternoon, for the game is to be called at 2:3e-
 These games between local players are the spice that lends interest to baseball the country over and it makes the game the great American sport.
 The rooter in the graRdstand has his chance for from that point of van tage he can make remarks to his ac- quaintances who are raEGrtang about the field that would meet with swift and summary punishment at any other time and in any other place. The players have an opportunity to rub it in" on the loosers that would warm the heart of the yeriesf oid fossU
 There will be baseball today, there will be guying and there win be fun, that is if the prophecy Of the players on both teams is to be believed.
