only one of the men who, working under the directing eye of Chance, brought off many victory for his club.
 Baseball does not always lie in out hitting the other fellows no more than it lies in out pitching them. great part depends on out guessing the opposi- ton. and the Cubs were all grand lit tie guessers.
 E If Chance goes to the bench he will hurt the feelings of few hundred tnou- sand deyotees of the game who nave become attached to him in the past nve or six years. At the present time there are a few men who have won their right to respect on every diamond in their re- spectfve league Chance, Mathewson, Wagner, Cobb, Johnson, Lajoie-these
 men are sure of their place in the base ball han of fame, and the men who give |up their hard-earned suskins to see the teams hitch up in battle would sincereiy mourn the departure of favorite.
 Chance hasn't really declared himself.
 He is young man yet. It Is quite true that he has had his bumps. Probapiy ne has suffered as many serious accidents as any player now in the harness In ms early days he had a way of anchoring himself at the plate, which made it next t.. impossible for him to get away from a fast inshoot, and at least once tnls batting habit took him to the hospital

New Orleans, June 12.-(special)-T Southern leagues two chief southpaws' Hess and Covaleski, were pitted against each other today before a typical New Orleans Sunday crowd of more than 1000. The better break in the luck gave the game to Hess and the Pelicans by the score of 2 to 1.
 Covaleski held the Pelicans to two hits, a home run and a scratch single A walk, stolen base an error and sacrifice fly gave the Pels their second run, the scratch hit having no effect in the scor- ing.
 MOlesworth Scores Early
 The Pole pitched a great game. the kind that would have been a winner nine times out of 10. He walked only two men to Hess three and famed eight to Hess six
 The Barons' only run was the first of the game. With one down Messenger was hit by a pitched ball. Molesworth forced him out at second and then stole his way to the keystone bag. McBride's single to left brought him in. That was in the third inning.
 In the fourth John Weimer landed on the ball for the hardest hit ever made at Pelican park. Taking just such a healthy swing as Franks Dutch out fielder is noted for, he landed squarely on the sphere, just enough under it to lift it over the right field fence with not less than 20 feet to spare.
 EIliott's Peg Costly
 Hess and Covaleski fought it out from the fourth to the eighth, both getting good support, and Hess once or twice pulling himself out of difficult holes. Although he allowed seven hits, Hess kept them all down to the single bag sort and kept them scattered. In short, Hess pitched his usual game, never extend- ing himself until he had to. Said ex- tension became necessary in the second and seventh innings. In the second the Barons choked the bags with two out. Hess famed the third one. He did the same thing in the seventh when two Bar ons were. on bases
 In the eighth Demont drew d pass and stole second. Eliott's peg to second was too high and Demont went on to third when the ball rolled to the outfield, SCOT ing on Lafttes sacrifice fly to right field.
 Today's was Hess eleventh victory this season. He has lost two and tied one and holds the pitching lead of the league Up to today Coyaleski was tied with him with five won and one lost

GERMAN HEARTH
ONLY a Year Old, 1t Is Reach
ing Ont to the Pacific.

The Gernan-American Friendship Club
for Young Women, started year ago al
No. 3N Park avenue by Fraulein Maria
Lydia Winkler, is going TO give a German
musical next Thursday evening in the
lyceur hall Of ST. Bartholomew's parish
house, No. 2o9 East 42d street.
When Fraulein winkler opened the
Friendship Club which she was impeIled
TO do because she had encountered so many
pathetic Instances OF lonely young girls
who had come from over the Fatherland to
earn their living and were starving for
CO mpanionship in the struggle, she had
not much except the bare rooms and faith
Now the rooms are furnished, there are
nihety-six young women members and fifty
friends pledged 10 help this German
hearth" in a foreign land, as Fraulein
Winkier calls it. Still, money is needed
and SO this musical is TO be given.
The club members are helping by ar
ranging a series of tableaus. in which the
German uadchen will be shown in her Ger
man home, then taking ship for America
and so on till, in the last picture she will
be seen sheltered in the Friendship CLUB
The patronesses are Mrs. Emil L. Boas
Mrs. Otto Kiliani and the Misses Asathe
and Mariana Schurz
After the musical Fraulein WinkIer is
planning 10 go TO Germany 10 make con-
necuons. she says. that girls intending
to come to America may know that there
is a home they may seek here at need" An
other OF her plans is to establish branches
OF the club on the Pacific Coast. Some
times young German women who have Left
her 10 seek work in the West. she saws

would like to have some means OF watch

One of the features of the .Carr,sp
hearth" is the Sunday social time. and TO-
day there is to be a combination party. 4
birthday festival for the children OF the
month those born in Marcia bridal
party for girl who will soon be married
and a farewell party for one who is going
away. These social afternoons are a great
start, fraulien Winkler says, TO the girls
who find 1t hard 10 take root in a stranS.
