PHILLIES' HARD LUCK.
Three Star Players Gone in Single
 Season Make Pernant Chances Slim.

The Phillies' chances for the pen nant look poor. The accident to Man agar Charlie Dooin in St. Louis We'd nesday, when he broke his leg while retiring Rebel Oakes on a play at the plate, gives the first real Philadelphia pennant contender in the National league for some years a blow from which it will be hard for the team to recover. It is the fortune of baseball. however, but it seems that Philade = phia, which was making such a game fight to keep at the top. has had more than her share of hard luck. Thrae star players gone in one season, all when the team needed them most, and one of them the pilot, is a handicap to which event the Giants with their ex- might well succumb.
 It is Dooin's absence from the field of action that will work the most havoc with the Phillies' chances for the pen nant. No team can expect to do it's best without the presence of it's leader to spur it to action. While Doolan, who succeeds Manager Dooin during the time he is laid up, may be an able bail player, and under ordinary circum-. stances might lead the Phillies through a successful season, he cannot hope to exert the same successful influence over a team which he did not build, for his own. personal ideas of what is best are bound to conflict with the teach 1ngS Of Doom to some extent, and Dy the time the team has managed to master them they may be far in the rear. For the fight in the National league is so close at present that the team which takes a slump at this stage of the game will have but slim chance to retrieve itself.
 Some idea of the importance of leaders presence to a team during the progress of a game can be gained by the absence of Manager McGraw from the Giants bench when he was under suspension this season. At that time the Giants were in a bad way, and, even though McGraw sat in the grand stand and attempted to direct affairs from there, the team was decidedly off color, and it was the opinion of many that the slump was due to Me Graw's absence from the field. Upon his return at the end of the week the team regained it's stride. bearing out the general impression of the effect of Muggsy's absence, and now he's out again.

GARDNER LAKE
 BASEBALL CHAMPIONSHIP
Two Games in Series Between Camps
 Cadaho and Sussaiqua Won by For

Gardner Lake, August 8.
 The first of a series of ball games for the lake championship was played yesterday between Camps Cadaho and Sussalqau. Cadaho won todays game by the score of to 0. The game was hard fought from the time the umpire called "Playi" until the last man was out In the Cadaho lineup were Cham plin. the N. F. A. first baseman of few years ago; Porter of Rochester university, Fisher of Pennsylvania, and husky Dan Nara. our old and only Dan. The Sussalqua men were the pick of the New York Y. M. C.. A. In the first inning Nara was laid out on the first ball pitched after stepping up to the plate. The features of the game were the all around playing of the Cadaho men and their base run ming. and individually the pitching of Marra. who struck out fifteen men and allowed the visitors but two scratch hits, the catching of Porter. and the work of Champlin on first. The at tendance was 125 and among those present were Sherwood G. Avery, Da- vid W. Avery of Bozrah. P. H. Harri- man M.D., Deputy Judge John H. Barnes, of this city

nants for Detroit, but man for nian they contend that Bresnahan is the more valuable player of the two.
 Prior to this season Bresnahan's S banner year was 1908, the campaign in which he caught 139 games for the Giants, who ran second to the Cubs and were beaten in the last contest of the race. Roger batted .283 that year and scored 70 runs. Mike Donlin and Larry Doyle outhit him. Donlin hit ting .3S4 and scoring n runs in 155 games, while Doy1es batting average was 1908, with 65 runs in 102 games. Yet Bresnahan, the catcher of the team, made one run less than Donlin' s total.
 Any ball manager will tell you that a catcher capable of racing Donlin to practically dead heat in run getting must be phenomenon. Bresnahan is going to repeat his great feat of 1908 this year. He now leads the Cards in batting and is outhitting every catch CT in the National league except Don lin of Philadelphia.
 "The cold figures don't tell the whole story, however. He is a great mana ger. He has handled an ordinary lot of players with superb generalship and if the pennant is won by the Car dinals Bres can be elected mayor of the Mound City"

 Detroit-won 63. lost 35; percentage .643.

PUTNAM NEARLY MISSED MEET
Rhodes Scholar Tells How Near Har-

How near the Americans came tc winning the recent Harvard Yale and Oxford Cambridge games in England was told on the arrival at Boston Tuesday of the steamship Canadian, which brought George E. Putnam, the Oxford Rhodes, man, who threw the hammer 151 feet inches and won the meet.
 New Orleans girl, Miss Caliere Ed wards, whom he had met abroad, be- fore the meet. He intended to sail before the meet with his bride, but the illness of his mother prevented. Then knowing that this marriage would disqualify him as a Rhodes scholar, and realizing that he would be held as a traitor in athletic cir cles in England if he did not complete even against the men of his own coun- try, he went into the meet and chanc- ed to make the point which won for England against America

BRESNAHAN VS. COBB.
bhEoNNfHN VS. COBB. Cardinals Backstop Has 1t On the Tbi,k


 That Roger Bresnahan is one of the best individual players in baseball has been clearly demonstrated by him this year." says St. Louis critic. Over in Detroit Ty Cobb is consid- cred the king of the diamond, which IS in a large measure true, but there are scores of men in the game today who possess many of the good po.nts which have made the Tiger famous.
 The Cleveland contention that La Jole Is the greatest individual star sinners down to the same proposition when you analyze it carefully. Pitts burg fans who have seen both Wagner and Bresnahan agree that the Dutch man has nothing on Roger, though they call attention to the fact that Wagner is fast going back.
 ''Bresnahan is playing the greatest ball of his career. St. Louis fans have had a fair chance to see the stars Of both big leaeu eues and the consen- sus is that Roger has it on Eddie Collins, Lajoie, Magee, Wagner and Christy Mathewson for individual val ue to a team.
 "Bresnahan's admirers claim that he excels Cobb because he is the king of catchers and one of the greatest bats men in the profession. They admit that Cobb is a star of the first magni- tude, but they insist that great out fielder is never the important factor in a game of ball that a great back stop like Bre5nahan can make himself.
 Rogers friends admit that while Cobb may outhit Roger the latter ex- cells in pinch hitting by breaking up games and driving in runs. and there seems to be some logic in their argu- ment that a 300 hitting catcher is worth a 500 hitting outfielder, which Cobb doesn't happen to be.
 .'The followers of the Cardinals manager are unwilling to have him compared with any others They con- cede that Cobb is great drawing card and they also give Ty credit for winning three American league pen
