FACTORY LEAGUE

There is big upheaval in the Fac tory League and as a result the Ash croft Manufacturing Co. team which has been occupying third position in the race, and stood good chance of going into second, has had a number of it's games thrown out tumbling down almost to the bottom This is as the result of using ringers They had played l2 games, and in all but two of these ringers were used. The two ringerlesS games were both wins Those games won by their opponents in which the Ashcrofts did use out siderS were allowed to stand as played This action was taken at a meeting of the league directors held last ev- ing. It was known for some time that the Ashcroft team was going outside the factory to get their players, and even though they were warned. they kept on in the same tracks Even though their number of wins are two and their losses are 10. the Ashcrofts do not grace the last rung of the lad der. that naughty position being held down by the team of the Automatic Machine Go, which club did not turn in a win during the whole season.
 They get little percentage now,
 through getting one of the Ashcroft forfeits
 The cup offered to the league by Bob Kinder was accepted and will go as the prize to the team finishing first in the second division
 The regular league schedule finished last Saturday, but there are, still a few postponed games to be played off
 which will affect the standing of the clubs. but in no way will harm the standing of the Yosts who hold down
 first position by a comfortable margin.
 The schedule for Saturday as arrang-
 ed by Secretary Willard follows: Birdsey-Somers vs. Ashcrofts at Yost Field at 2 o'clock, and Yosts vs A. T.

"PACKY" M'FARLAND'S
 MOTHER OBJECTS AND
 M'INTOSH WON'T INSIST
Especial from United Press. ]

Chicago, Aug. 31.-Packey McFar- lands mother says Mo- and Packey does not go to Australia. This is the word received by Promoter Mcintosh, who short time ago signed Packey, Billy Papke, Ray Bronson and Matty Baldwin for the Australian trip.
 Today Mcintosh. who has just re- turned from Vancouver. where he went to make arrangements for the sailing of the party on September 10, declared that although he had Packey's sigma ture he would not enforce his rights in deference to the wishes of Packeys mother.
 Mrs. Mcfarland told the promoter that her health had been broken through worrying over her sons fight ing, and that she did not want him to make the trip. She said she had al- ways been opposed to his fighting and wanted him to leave the ring. Mcintosh will endeavor to get Cy- clone Johnny Thompson to fill the crack lightweight's place.

FORCE OF GRAVITY.
How It Would Affect Mans Weight on
 the Celestial Bodies.

How It Would Affect Mans Weight on
 the Celestial Bodies.
 If the planet Mars be really inhab- ited the people who live there must be an exceedingly agile race. The av- craze weight of a man is about 40 pounds, but the force of gravity on Mars is so much less than on the earth that the 40 pound man would weigh only fifty-three pounds if he were transported thither. With such light weight, and still retaining the same strength, an individual would be able to run with the speed of an express train, go skipping over ten foot walls and do various other ex- traordinary things. On the moon a man would be even lighter.
 But on the sun our 40 pounder would have his troubles. Instead of being an airy individual he would weigh in the neighborhood of ton and three-quarters. He would prob ably have the greatest difficulty in raising his hand, for that member would weigh about 300 pounds.
 According to scientific computation a man who on earth weighs 14C pounds would on the other celestial bodies weigh as follows:
 The moon, B pounds; Mars, B pounds; Venus, IA pounds; Mercury 119 pounds: Neptune, 123 pounds Uranus, 127 pounds; Saturn, 16s pounds; Jupiter, 371 pounds, and the sun, 3,S71 pounds. Chicago Tribune.

Taken at His Word.

The doctor was telling how he came to lose one of his best paying patients. The man was a hypochon- driac, who was always imagining that something terrible was about to hap pen to him, and the doctor, who was a great jollier, was kept busy trying to reason him out of his morbid con. dition.
 You have worried yourself until you are bordering on a nervous col. lapse" said the doctor to him one day You shouldn't think about your symp toms all the time, but just attend to your affairs as if there was nothing the matter with you"
 ''An right, doctos," replied the pa dent. ''Tll do as you say.l You needn'1 come to see me any more."-New York Times.

INTO THE HOME STRETCH
 SINGLES FROM THE BAT

Three weeks ago he was batting around .250. He made a start put ting on weight day after day, until last week he joined the charmed few in the select 300 class. He has not yet let up yesterday turning in two hits, one a homer against the Avia- tors. The, best of it all. Cough has the faculty tof gathering the hits when they are most needed.
 It is most likely that the White Wings will make it eleven straight against the Ponies today. In that event should the Aviators drop two games they will be in third place to- night.
 Including today's games in New Britain, and double headers yet to be played, the Mechanics have IA more games, seven at home and seven abroad. Of this number 10 are with first division clubs.

.CLARKE'S RETIREMENT
 SHOWS PlTTSBURG OUT OF TENANT RACE
Special from United Press.)


 Pittsburg, Aug. 31.-The retirement of Manager Fred Clarke from the P1ttsburg baseball team for the re- mainder of the season and probably for all time, is generally considered today as the final proof that the team is hopelessly tout of the running" for the pennant championship. The abuse of Clarke by the Pittsburg fans in the second game of Mondays dou- ble-header with New York which re- suited in the managers withdrawal from the lineup in favor of Camp bell, is keenly regretted by the bet ter element of the baseball patrons and it is probable that the latter will try to offset the effect of this by a testimonial to Clarke in apprecia- tion Of his long and brilliant service in this city.
 Clarke is badly upset by the action of the fans who hissed him when he came to bat in the second game of Monday and called for the substitu- ton of another batter Only a year ago he won the worlds championship for Pittsburg and was acclaimed a hero.
 "Its too bad" remarked Manager McGraw of the Giants today, ''but such are the fortunes of the game"

A SAD STORY.
The Misfortune That Game With .
 Terrible Tumble.

Tho Misfortune That Game With a
 Terrible Tumble.
 Rowling is now, very little practiced in the Shetland islands, although many eggs are secured annually. Many thrilling stories of fowling adventure are told by the Shetlanders. A man who had undertaken to climb certain steep cliff was neither very expert enced nor very brave, although he boasted of being both. He pushed up ward, however, briskly without look ing behind until he had got up about 150 feet, when he stopped to breathe The pause was fatal to his self posses sion, and he called out in tones of ter TOT, "Men, men, am going-I am go ing" But he still held on for little and 1t was not till he had shrieked many times 'T am going" that he did fall headlong.
 His comrades, having thus been warned, moved the boat out of the way so that the poor fellow came tsheer down into the deep water. Mighty was the plunge. but at length he rose to the surface, when of course he was instantly caught hold of and dragged into the boat. After many gasps and much spluttering ef sea water from his mouth his only remark was: "Eh men, this is sad story. l have lost my Sketches and Tales of Shetland"
