Mclean is good but erratic, Billy Sui
Ivan is out OF the game, and don't
see any other backstops in the big
leagues who class with these. Bres-
nahan in my mind is the greatest
catcher In the game today.
The wonderful showing Hal Chase
has made with the Yankees this year
gives him the call for first base. Chase

WONDERFUL EXHIBITION.

Detroit fans are to be con.
graduated. Unconsciously they
gave an exhibition yesterday
that could not be duplicated In
any other city In the American
league. When the heavy rain
came up the bleacherites and
those standing behind the ropes
hurried In front Of the grand
stand to escape the moisture.
When the clouds passed by,
Manager Jennings requested
the fans to go back behind the
ropes. Without the aid OF po-
lice persuasion they did SO. will
lingly and without delay. The
game continued as soon az pos
sible. No other American
league city could boast Of Q per-
Torrance of this kind. II was
a wonderful demonstration OF
politeness and sense OF pro-
priety.

The Detroit times., 1910-06-13

Mathewson is as good as ever. the
same applies TO Mullin. and lets these
veterans out, because any baseball fan
knows how good they are when they
are right. Walter Johnson is about
as good a pitcher as ever fooled a
batter.
John McGraw is the ideal leader
for such a bunch. McGraw Is about
the brainiest man In baseball. and
what he would do with a team OF
quick thinkers and heady ball tossers
such as | have picked here, would
pretty near make baseball history.

Two pieces of great head
work stuck out through the mist

tried to stop he slipped and the
ball hoped of his forehead for

Then he went TO first. Any

It's a nice thing TO get a homer
along with some shoes, much glory
and sack OF odd merchandise, but a
man on third and nobody out and one
run needed to tie. is Just as good as
a score-maybe better for the pitch

HEART
TO
HEART
With the
Sporting
Editor.

Were II not for the fact that Ty
Cobb by. his daring, accomplishes
feats Of baseball strategy impossible
for any other player. ii is quite like
ly that Hughie Jennings would take
Tyrus out behind the managerial
woodpile and apply the official single
to that part of his anatomy provided
for the purpose. For, In two most
recent games. Tyrus has perpetrated
what an unkind public and some OF
the more vulgar critics would term
bone head plays"
He was ill-advised into one. made
the other by taking too great a
chance. and was just decently crossed
up on the third by an opposing play
err. Taking the big chance on which
he stubbed his toe. cost the Tigers a
game, and the chance for temporary
lead OF the league. Cobb gets away
with so much stun that IL seemed
doubly strange when he slips.
The Saturday contest was produc-
tive OF two of the plays which might
have gone otherwise, much to the
sorrow of the locals. In the fourth
inning. Cobb sent terrific liner down
the right field foul line Wolter shag-
ged the ball with remarkable dis
patch. Likewise he threw TO Mr..
Chase unexpectedly well and Chase
passed the ball ON to the catcher with
the least possibly delay. AS result
Catcher Mitchell was waiting for Cobb
to slide.

So much for that. In the fifth In
ming Cobb tried to nip VOTERS low
liner by sliding for the ball. The ball
either didn't travel as far as he ex-
pected or he over-estimated his abil-
fly to slip along on his chest, for 1t
struck the ground and rolled for a
homer, making two runs and enough
for New York 10 win. Playing II safe
would have put = man on first and
second with nobody out. There was
slight chance for a double on this
play because Hemphill stood half way
between first and second until he was
sure Cobb wasn't going to get the ball.
In that event there was no advan-
tage in the fielder's sliding.

Cobb puts SO much over on the

melted out four hits In the Sunday
contest, and scored three runs. Also

way he hoped around third base.

 stack. which was forty four inches in circumference was supported with
 several steel cables used as guys.
 These cables were snapped like twine
 under the heavy pressure, and per-
 mitted the tall stack to topple over
 upon another stack, which mounted seventy-five feet into the air. The two fell with crash. narrowly miss ing the power plant and menacing the lives of two men who stuck to their posts inside the building, de- spite the apparent danger.
 In falling the stacks ripped loose several pipes connected with the boilers which operate the ice plant, the steam pumping plant and the steam cooking equipment. Fortunate ly. the school possesses auxiliary equipment for the pumping plant and has a large coal range which can be pressed into service for cooking pur- poses. so that the. inconvenience will be but temporary It is believed that the necessary repairs will be com pleted within two or three days at the latest.
 Of course, there was no small amount of damage upon the ranches lying in the path of the storm, con- sisting largely in the blowing down of small outhouses, chicken houses. etc. and which taken in the aggre- gate would amount to a considerable figure.

When The Republican the other day chronicled the fact that R M de Gex. late subject of His Britannic Majes- ty. had renounced allegiance to him and had also renounced the world, the flesh and the devil, it was with no thought that the majesties of whom he had been faithful servitor would engage in recrimination. It was there fore with surprise that the following royal communication was received from the court of St. James, having been relayed at Maricopa
 We read with infinite pleasure of the naturalization as an American citi- zen of our former subject, Reginald Melhuish de Gex in your valued pub lication. The de Gexes have ever been turbulent breed and always a men, ace to our loyal realm.
 This news is particularly gratifying to us from the fact that we have learned from our Secretary for the Colonies that this ignoble scion of an illustrious line, who finds fulsome praise in your columns, has been per- soma non grata in at least three of our colonies; Australia knows him for the misappropriation of muttons: Africa for I. D. B., and Canada for high grad ing. He has been a continued source O. embarrassment to our empire, amounting at times to international complications.
 We feel it to be our duty to our glorious ally, the United States of America, to impart the foregoing in- formation. Kindly forward your pa per as usual.
 "Given under our Royal Hand at our Palace of St. James this Second Day of August in the Year Nineteen Hund- red and Ten and in the first year of our Reign. GEORGE R."
 Accompanying this was the follow ing self-explanatory dispatch:
