There probably won't be any occa-
sion for building temporary stands at
the Huntington avenue ball park in
Boston this fall. The Red Sox came
here with brilliant prospects of making
a warm fight for the pennant with the
Philadelphia Athletics. They left last
night ten and half games from first
place. The gloom was so thick around
their train that the engineer couldn't
see the road to st. Louis and wouldn't
swear that he wasn't steering for
Palmyra. n. J., instead.
The White Sox, who can finish in
sixth place If they hurry, made 1t four
straight from what used to be the
Speed Boys. 1t took ten innings to set
tie the final argument. and it surely
was hot one while it lasted. jim
Scott would have had a cinch but for
Capt. Charley Wagner of the Boston
club. Tht captain was fooled by jim
his first time up He approached the
plate thrice more before the day was
over, hit safely thrice, and drove in al
the runs Boston got.

Boston, Mass. Aug. 13.-The tail
enders made a lot of trouble for the
Cubs yesterday and before they could
be subdued, to 3. Manager Chance
had to call Ready Rescuer Brown to
Reulbach's aid
Moreover, Brownie had to use all the
cunning at his command to avert de-
feat. They drew the finish so fine that
a single would have tied the score in
the last half of the ninth and a longer
drive would have brought defeat to
Chicago, for those pesky Doves filled
up the bases on Brownie with only one
out. In that exceedingly interesting
situation Brown finally got his old hook
working right and struck out two bats
