II Wagner does not top the National
League in batting this year his record
yesterday will be a consolation. In one
game Wagner had three hits out of
three trips to the plate, and in the
second game four out of as many
trips His three hits in the first were
homer and two singles. A homer
and three doubles were his contribu-
tions in the second. His total number
Of bases were sixteen.

John McGraw. according to an inter
view, says that he thinks the Cubs
will have it easy with the Athletics.
Maybe he's right. but we don't think
ft will be a walkover, for the White
Elephants have hitters and fielders,
and have beaten Detroit just as easily
as the Cubs did in the worlds series.
That's the way you want to look at it.
That bout between Carl Healy and
Darlxy Griffin, set for McGuigan's
Thursday night, according to present
plans, should be a hummer. I've seen
Healy dashing through Branch Brook
Park as far back as three weeks ago,
So the lad should be in the good shape
he'll need to be to beat Griffin.

Jack Dunn must feel bad for taking
those two games from Rochester at
Baltimore recently. At least it ap-
pears so to us when he sends Russell
and viukers, his best twirlers, against
US here in a double-header Sunday,
and then opposed the champions yes
terday with Mr.. Donnelly.

Rube Waddell on their list of optional

Unless it was understood that the
