Collins Beats Wagner.

Eddie Collins. tho Philadelphia Ath-
letics' second baseman, has beaten out
Hans Wagner OF the Ptttsburgs for the
honor OF being the first player to reach
the century mark In base hits for the
season. Collins reached the goal last
Sunday, making two hits I'm the game at
Detroit. which gave him a total Of 1O1
safe bingles. Wagner did not play Sun
day. though it Is likely that Collins
would have beaten him out anyway as
the mighty Hans has but ninety-slx bin
giles to his credit
While Collins passed the century mark
in hits before Hans, the National league
star is the leader In percentage. He has
an average of .39S. as he was at bat less
times than Collins Wagner's at bat
total Is PSI. while Ceilings chances num-
Der 273, Wagner also shades Collins IN
runs. stolen bases and sacrifice hits,
The Pittsburg man has forty-two runs,
twenty-three stolen bases and sixteen
sacrifice hits. Collinss record Is thirty
eight runs. twenty stolen bases and ten
sacrifice hits.
Three years ago Collins played a few
games with Newark. Connie Mack loan
Ing him to the local club to help out in
an emergency. The nearest Wagner got
to Newark was Paterson. The Dutch
man played with the Silk city team In
the old days OF the old Atlantic league.

GaIlen Says Second Meeting

Space Annihilating Automobile.

There is nothing like the automobile
Tor comprising the quick transit of
those who own IT, and the vacation
plans of the rich have been revolutions
lzed in consequence. Practically the
whole country is at the service of the
owner of touring car, and railroad
me-tables have no terrors for him. He
can take the family vacation "in the
saddle, as il were, going from resort
to resort over a territory as great as
his fancy may will. The New York
Herald, by way of illustration, thus
quotes the manager OF Delmonico IS.
Time and distance have become sec
ondary considerations to the man or
woman Of fashion. The automobile has
a direct influence upon the restaurants
of New York. The other morning
saw a well-known young banker walk
ing along Broad street toward the stock
exchange. That afternoon he sent a
telegram from his home in Deal asking
q party of friends TO meet him at din
ner IN New York. At quarter to s
o clock | saw him greet his friends in
oVr new palm treIhs. Later the party
went to a theater. and at 9 clock in
the morning the banker was snugly es-
conced in his bed at Deal Beach. Go.
ing some, ism Z it? yet only sample
of what takes place every day. A
family from Tarrytown comes to New
YORK Tor luncheon as regularly as 1T
comes downstairs TO breakfast
There are two sides to the new order
Of things, however. People whose
means forbid the ownership Of an au.
tomoblle, not to speak about many land
lords of hotels, discover an intolerant
aggressiveness among tho automobile
contingent. When a big touring car
deposits its inmates at a hotel in the
country the regular guests are expected
to give way to the transients, who ex-
pect the best Of attention, and are reck-
less III their demands TO an extent which
sometimes impairs the supplies for 9th
ers. In fact, the ability to sail across
the country regardless of the old con.
ditions tends to beget something like
bad manners and selfshness, and here
is something for those who are in the
swim OF the new order of things to
think about. Let it not be forgotten
by any thoughtless people that the right
to exist still remains 20 the less for
tunate.-Springfeld (Mass.) Republi
