1t was while returning from one of

Governor Miller. though q great,
strong, athletic man. had the vulner.
able point of an inability to swim. The
men who knew him were surprised to
know that he should drown in a mar.
row river. They supposed. Of course,
he could swim. But when the boat
turned over the King of Balawan. the
savior of the people, the man who had
started the thousands on the road to
development, went unceremoniously
to the bottom and his native compan.
ions dived for hours before they were
able to recover his body.
So there had settled down upon
Palawan the gloom Of the great loss

nook, and civil service or the discre-

these qualities idealist enough to give
up the world to which he has been ac.
customed to live among the people Of
the wild for the sake of doing good.
And the Moros, these Samals or Kyp-
sizes Of the sea. are again at their
depredations. They had thought this
big American demon, a thing Of
supernatural strength and of charmed
lie. Yet he had sunk and drowned
with his boat turned over. So would
all his kind. They would throw the
next big American overheard and
drown him.

was brought that the pirates were

this band under similar conditions and
the results were the same. The ttmid
natives found that they could fight
and that they liked 1t. They placed
themselves at the command of the
governor and did his bidding without
question. They came to call him king
and his word was law. They carried
the tales of him to the ends of the
island and all the people proclaimed
him. None would have dared stand

had brought peace into the whole

among the Moros became so great
that for six years before his death
there was not piratical raid on any
part Of the island. The natives called
him king and his powers with them
were absolute. To all intents and pur.

there was no authority in the land

They were intelligent. tractable, mu-

would do something for these people

this plan that he lost his life.

The figures shown in the tables which
are given below have been compiled
from the official tabulated scores OF the
100 games contested by the Nationals
with the other seven teams of the Amer
lean League in the race for the champion
ship pennant in all games played to Sat
urday, August Is.
The team has been doing good work
while swinging around the circuit on their
second trip west, having played nineteen
games with Philadelphia, ST. Louis, Chi
cago and Cleveland and winning nine
and losing nine and one tie with Cieve-
land, which is a fine record away from
home.
Lelivelt has passed Milan as leader of
the team in batting with an average Oh
.2T6, although Gray. pitcher. in twenty
games has an average of .29i, and Otey
in one game a percentage of LOCO Milan
leads the team, as the best run-getter
with fifty-seven TO his credit, folloHed
by Gessler and Lelivelt with forty-one
and forty, respectively. He also leads
in stolen bases with twenty-four. followed
by Lelivelt with sixteen, Unglaub ana
Schaefer with fifteen each.
killifer and Mcbride lead in sacrifice
hits with Is, followed by Lelivelt with
Ii. Gessler is the leading long hitter
with total of 10, followed by Lelivelt,
IO9; Milan, 1OS and Mcbride, 103. total
bases. Johnson and Walker are the only
pitchers that have a percentage of games
won Of 800 and better, although all the
twirlers have improved considerably dur
ing the trip. They will be home tomor-
row. with Detroit as their opponents, and
should receive hearty welcome from the
fans. The figures below will give the
reader a better idea of the Nationals
work during the season:

D|SCARDS HIT WELL
IN MINOR LEAGUES
Best Hitters Are Players Who
Have OutIived Usefulness
in Fast Company.

"Batters, give US batters!'' yell the
base ball fans. but where will the will
ingto-please manager get them? He
surely cannot get them from another
team in his own league, and the Ma
tional League clubs could scarcely be
prevailed upon to hand over a few choice
swatters, writes Henry Edwards in the
Cleveland Plain Dealer.
With the two big leagues out of the
question, the managers would naturally
turn to the class A leagues for good
stickers to strengthen their teams.
What would be the result? The 800
hitters in the Eastern League are Third
Baseman Corcoran of Buffalo, Outfielder
Kelly of Newark, Third Baseman Heine
Batch of Rochester and Catcher Slattery
of Toronto. Slattery was tried by three
American League clubs and found want
Ing. Batch is a veteran who played
about seven years in the minors before
landing berth with Brooklyn. Corcoran
is far from being youngster.
The American Association 300 hitters
are more numerous, including Jimmy
Barrett. Murray of ST. Paul, Cravath,
Jimmy Williams, Charley Hickman, Tom
Raftery and Charley Carr. Barrett is
out of the question on account of his
age and propensity to have his legs go
Carr are not to be considered, either.
That leaves Raftery. Cravath and Muir
ray. The first two have been tried be-
fore and found lacking; but they have
improved a lot since being turned back
to the American Association. Murray,
who is batting 1862, seems to be the best
hitting outfelder in the A. A, but for
some reason or other no clubs seem to
be offering any fancy bids for him.
Others close to the 800 mark in the A.
A. are Otis Clymer, Jack Hayden and
Dave Altizer. Hayden might be worth
considering, but Cleveland would never
think of buying either of The others.
They have a big collection of 300 hit
tiers in the Western League. Fenlon,
with Louisville last season, leads with
an average of 1893, having made 129 hits
i'm eighty-seven games. 1t seems as il
he should be in demand. Others hitting
far above 300 are Cole and Beall, turned
back by Comskey; Third Baseman Reil-
lin. once an infielder with the White Sox;
Paul Cobb. Tvs brother, and McAleese,
formerly of Youngstown and the Browns
Quillin and Fenlon are the real hitters
OF the circuit and they have some pitch
ers in that circuit, for Omaha released
Shotten, who led the o. and P. last sea-
son, because he could not hit; the Lin
coin canned Lefty Davis. formerly of
the Yankees and Columbus, for the same
reason.
In the Southern League Joe Jackson,
senger, given a trial by Chicago last sea-
son. are the best-that is, outside of the
gigantic Meek, who never would do in
any major league. Jackson has already
been purchased, while Messenger may re-
ceive another trial.

Allows No Hits.

ROCKVILLE. Nd, August IA. =
Dick Robertson led the team represent
ing the District Commissioners Office to
an easy victory over Rockville at the fair
grounds here this afternoon. The score
was 9 to 0. and incidentally it was the
worst defeat administered to Rockville
this season.
Not only did Robertson shut out the
boys from his home town, but he let
them down without anything that resem-
bled a hit. and Hound up his remarkable
performance by tanning the last three
men to face him, bringing his total strike
outs for the day up to ten. 1t was the
finest exhibition of pitching seen in Rock
vile in a long while.
The Washington boys played high-class
ball both at the bat and in the field, the
work of Hessler In both departments be-
ing especially clever. Rockville went to
pieces in the third inning, mixing several
errors with hits by the other fellows,
five runs resulting.
