Grafton. The attitude and language OF
Messrs. Barnes and Woodruff toward Mr..
Roosevelt. Governor Hughes and direct
nominations strikingly recall the views
of the machine politicians of thirty
years ago about the reforms and re-
formers of that period. In the famous
Rochester convention of 1877 Thomas G
Platt denounced William NJ Evarts, then
Secretary of State, as a "demagogue.
and called Civil Service reform a ''nau-
seating shibboleth Everything which

Sam Crawford, mighty slugger of
the Tigers. in years past broke up
many games in Cleveland by put
ting the ball over the right field
fence. Crawford is a left handed
batter, so naturally most of his
drives go into right field.
When the Nap owners built their
new park, they remembered Craw-
ford and his trick of knocking home
runs over the right garden fence.
So Owners Somers and Kilfoyl con-
suited with the builders. and the
result was concrete wall % feet

screen % feet high. making the

and it is 200 feet from home plate.
On Crawford's first trip to Cleve-
land he banged couple of drives
up against the screen, but the Maps
thought they had him faded. How
ever, on the Tigers last visit to
Cleveland Sam landed on one of Cy
Falkenbergs offerings and accord
ing to rumor the ball is going yet.
1t cleared the wall and the screen
by many feet, and disappeared over
q house on the other side of the
street. Veteran critics are certain
the performance will not be dupli-
Gated again this season, but Craw-
ford is scheduled to play several
more games in Napville.

BOSTON, Mass, July 8.-Miss
Alice Sargent, the richest woman
skipper in American waters, is plan
ming to sail her own sonderboat
again this season in the trials for
the boats that will meet the Span
ish sonderboats to be sent over to
race for the Taft cup in August.
She asks and expects no chivalrous
favors from her male competitors.
Last season she sailed her own boat
in the sender trials.
Miss Sargent is prospective heir
ess to her share of the great wealth
that maintains the magnificent Sar-
gent estate of Holm Lea in Brook
line and makes the Sargent name
one of the foremost in Boston So
ciety. Her father, Prof Chas. s..
Sargent, is one of the most noted
experts in Horticulture and arbori-
culture in the country.
Miss Sargent has acquired a rep
utation in yachting. She delights
in heavy weather and is as daring
as any of the men of the Massa-
chusetts Bay fleets. She takes a
wetting with all the nonchalence
of a Grand Banks fisherman, and
scorns the peaceful monotony Of
an inner harbor as long as her boat
