some horses. He does. however, get
extreme and uniform speed of early
maturity and his blood breeds on and
produces race-horse trotters of the
highest9 order. That Bingen begets
high-class horses from only fair mares
is evidenced by the performances of
Chlan, whose dam, Blonde. is neither
a well-bred mare nor a good individual.
She is a chestnut mare standing about
1872 hands tall, and were she led into
an auction ring where no one knew
her her price would be not more than
$50. Her conformation is absolutely
poor and 1t Is indeed doubtful whether
she will produce another foal that will
in any way compare with uhlan An

year and while she has about 2:10

the cover of Bingen and the produce
will of course be an own brother or
sister to Uhlan, yet very few horsemen

In all probability the most-talked-of
horse In the world today is the peer
less black trotting gelding Uhlan,
owned by Mr.. c. K. G. Billings,
of New York. 1t seems almost I'M
called-for to say anything about the
king of trotters at this time, for his
deeds and his achievements are house
hold words wherever equine speed is
known or priced. The gap that sepa-
rates him from all others of his gait
is so wide that 1t Is a case of ECLIPSE
first, the rest nowhere" He is not
only a speed marvel, but a giant in
strength and a lion in courage n
wearing power. While Uhlan has
been making harness horse history his
brilliant performances have in a meas
ure overshadowed the greatness of
both his sire, Bingen, 2:06A, and his
dam, Blonde, by Sir Walter, jr., both
of which are owned at William Brad
ley's Ardmaer farm at Raritan. These
two horses have been at Ardmaer for
two years and 1t Is indeed doubtful
whether a score of local enthusiasts
have ever looked upon them. Bingen
Is perhaps the founder of the greatest
family of trotters that eve lived and
while he Is a horse of tremendous sub
stance there is much about him that
does not please critical horsemen. He
lacks finish in more ways than one

If Joe jeanette and Sam Langford

abled him to last the distance u also
to have Langford in danger In the

All the leading teams, the Giants,
Cubs and Pirates, broke even yester-
day and the situation Is the same to-
day in regard to standing.
Rube Marquard apparently has no
union card, for he got his bumps good
and proper in the afternoon game. For
eight innings the tail7end Rustlers
were 4veryp-much in the rear, 5 to 0.
But In the eighth they just tied the
score, and when McGraw allowed the
81, 900 beauty to remain on the mound
in the tenth they sewed up the game.

Little Johnny" might be some man
ager, but 1t was poor wisdom for him
to allow Narquard to pitch the tenth
! after the way he was hammered in the
eighth.
Donlin, Bridwell and Gowdy were
big factors in the double-header. Mike
drove In four runs in the morning
game, and Bridwell and Gowdy had a
lot to do in the afternoon game with
the stick.
Red Murray had a homer and single
in the early contest and committed
larceny twice. Josh Devore tripled and
singled and broke the seventh COM
mandment twice. Josh also lad a
t-hree-sacker and single in the after
noon battle.
Brooklyn just toyed with the Phillies
twice at Washington Park yesterday,
in spite of the fact that Alexander and
Moore were the op. 'sing fingers.
-
Fred Tenny and Johnny King we're
chased off the field yesterday by Billy
Klein.
Just now the principal interest in
the American League is the fight for
third place between the Yanks and
Maps. They are tied today and both
won double-headers yesterday.
Russell Ford and Jim Vaughn were
too much for the Red Sox yesterday.
Ford had seven strike-outs in the
morning.
Tom Needham is doing all the back
stop work for the Cubs these days.
He worked both games yesterday,
Charley Smith received poor support
in the morning game and the Cardinals
got a commanding lead right off the
reel.
Lonergan, the Red Sox recruit, got
in four singles in four times up off
Ford. In the afternoon he batted 500,
getting one out of two.
Cleveland won both games from the
White Sox yesterday and made it six
straights over Comiskey's early speed
sters.
Both the Athletics and Detroits were
charitable yesterday. They divided
with their opponents.

Baltimore is the big problem with
which Joe McGinnity is now wrest-

The Bengals and Birds have battled
eighteen times this season, and the
Dunnites have been bested by the jun
g~leites only twice.
The Tigers fought hard in both of
yesterdays games, but they never even
had the distinction of leading the
flock in one of the eighteen rounds.
Several times they tied both games.

came to setting the pace they simply

to produce a wallop valued at more
than three sacks. Twice yesterday he
made long hits and tried to score. Bill
is mercury on the paths, but each
tine accurate throws nipped him near
the plate in his %laudable effort. With
coreoran in the outf1eld the Orioles
loast a nlmble trio of secondary de-
fense men. Walsh is always reliable
and a good thrower. Henline plays a
good game at centre and made three
very pert pegs yesterday. Corcoran
was always ambitious to become an
outfelder. even though he was a good
third sacker. He m~isjudged several
flies yesterday, but each time made
a sensational leaping catch. One of
his spears on Louden was especially
brilliant. and Bill would have boosted
a triple with his homer, two doubles
and two singles had the ball evaded
Mickey.
When the Tigers started to tickle
Sam Frock, Johnny Dunn yanked him
out and Doc Adkins held the Bengals
the rest of the game. Loose base
running and careless pegging by Cady
gave the flock the first game. In the
eighth the Birds punched a couple of
singles and sewed up the game.

Why a player wants to score from
first on a single is a mystery. Ty
Cobb is the greatest ever, but he
doesn't attempt that stunt very often.
In both games the Bengals scored
ten runs and made eight errors. Cady
made four of the eight.
