RIVER LIGHT
BOTHERS MARINERS

The local Lighthouse inspector has
been asked by pilots of vessels using
the Christiana Creek to place sector
in the rear light ON the Bellvue
Range, Delaware River. as the light
blinds those in charge of vessels bound
60 Wilmington. The light is of the
flash order and shows around the en-
tire horizon. The sudden burst OF this
strong light strikes directly in the faces
of the pilots in charge of vessels when
entering the creek. This, II is believed
can be avoided by the use of sector
on the light Captain Bispham, the
Lighthouse inspector, will make an In
vestigation at once and make the desir

CHats to Manager Fred Lake and

Boston Americans. who have jolted
tho baseball dopesters this year The
remarkable showing of the Red Sox
during the present campaign has sure
ly been one Of the real surprises Of
the baseball season of 1909. While con-
siderable space has been given to the
great struggle between the Philadel-
phia and Detroit teams for first hon
ors i'm Ban Johnsons circuit, Il would
be a splendid idea to take a peep at
the Boston outfit. In the spring the
Red SoX looked like the joke club of
the league, but Lake has taken bunch
Of youngsters and whipped them into
wonderful shape. so that right now
they appear to be the best balanced
team i'm the league If one were to
pick real individual star on the Red
Sox team he couldn't do it. Even Iris
Speaker. who started the season by
hitting like a whirlwind has slumped
away back But that Boston tribe is
playing the game. and while Detroit
and Philadelphia are clawing at each
others throat Boston keeps coming
right up to tho top. ON its recent wes-
tern trip the team captured ten straight
games. II may blow up-any club com
posed Of Youngsters is liable at any
moment to do that-but right now the
Boston team looks like a big conten-
der for the American League honors.
