the other with a triple when the
bases were densely populated.
Considering him as human be-
ing in ordinary street clother, Biff
was not handsome. Children used
to cry in their baby carriages as
he passed by; taXicab drivers
feared to run over him for fear of
damaging their cars. Subway
guards left the doors open for
him, and women were strangely
attracted by the remarkable col.
lection of features, which he wore
between his hat brim and his col
lar.
Charlie Brydon tried to name
him "Adonis" Bohannon, but Biff
was a better name for him.
1t was fortunate that he did
most of his work with his back to
the grand stand his countenance
slightly shaded and it's lines soft
ened by a thick wire mask. But
whatever peolpe may have thought
about Biff's nose and the cash
which passed for a mouth, none
could question that his batting
average was a thing of rare beau
ty. and his "pegging wing" a joy
forever. If handsome is as hand
some does, Bfff BOhannon was an

GIANTS HAVE ADVANTAGE OF
THE ATHLETICS IN PITCHING

jumps in the business to his smoke
ball.
But the Carlisle star is no
Mathewson. He lacks the steadi-
ness and dependability of Mathew
son.
Vanguard VS.. Coombs.
MathewsOn has the edge on
Bender, and Vanguard is a much
better pitcher than Jack COombs.
The one man who gave Mack S
people the hardest fight and the
bulk of trouble through the wan
ing campaign now drifting by was
Vean Gregg, the star left handler
of the Cleveland Maps. Gregg
stopped Mack's club effectively
more than once. Vanguard is
much along Gregg's type. He has
even more smoke than the Cleve-
land marvel and as great a break
to his fast curve. In the last few
months the big left handler has
also gained fine control and is
probably one of the hardest slab
men of the game to beat.
Coombs has drawn a season of
in and out pitching-good in
streaks and only saved at other
times by the rugged batting of his
clean support. At his best Coombs
is far from having Vanguard S
classic assortment of shoots and
speed. He has drawn more ex-
perience and may be trifle
steadier under fire, but the Giant
southpaw has supreme confidence
in his ability to beat Mack's club
and this will mean a lot.
Ames will rank upon a par
with Plank, for Ames, like Math-
ewson, is at his best upon cool
day in the fall.
In having two slabmen ready
for the series like Mathewson and
Vanguard, there can be no ques-
ton but that McGraw carries a
big advantage over his keeneyed,
solemn-visaged rival. In a short
series of seven games and posi-
bly, only five or six, two pitchers
can do practically all the work.
In the pitching department Nc
Graw has the shade and enough
edge to offset Athletic prowess in
other departments.

There is a little farmhouse out
in Kansas which has all the mod
ern improvements, and also a
glass cabinet in the front room.
This cabinet contains many inter
esting relics, among which might
be noted three very ornate loving
cups. One of them is of solid
gold, and bears a simple inscrip-
ton:
ITO the old Crab from the Pink
Sox, pennant winners, 10"
There are also two diamond
medals, one of them a curiosity.
The donors had asked Charlie
Brydon to suggest a suitable de-
sign, and that great man sug-
gested a crab, done in diamonds.
There is solid silver coffee set,

a jagged scar over one eye, some

Mathewson VS.. Bender.
1t is on the firing line that the
greater part of the battle will set
tie, so the comparison here is
worth closer attention than any
other factor of the fight. There
is no question but that McGraw
expects to win this series with Bis
great right handler and his equally
renowned southpaw. Nor is there
any question but that Connie
Mack fears this pair more than
any other factor of Giant playa
Mathewson is always at his best
in the closing stages of the fight.
He reaches his greatest height in
a post season clash. He has
looking better each passing week
for a month and by mid-October
expects to be every whit as good
as he was in 1905. Bender at his
best is one of the great pitchers of
the game. The Indian has a world

The Crab, of whom it was said
that he could smell the direction
of foul ball, was already flying,
back toward the stand. With one
wise old eye cooked on the ball and
his spikes drumming the turf, the
Crab shot into the shadow of the
grand stand without slackening
his speed.
Carsey was right; there was
nothing the matter with the old
boys legs. He was on familiar
territory; he knew every inch of
the ground. Many difficult
twisting foul he had trapped in
the shadow of that stand. HeI
knew the ten-foot board wall,
above which the first tier of boxes
began; he thought of it, as heI
measured the ball with his eye.
1t was dropping now, still far
ahead of him, and as the speck of
white changed color as the ball
passed out of the sunlight and into
the shadow, the Crab knew, with
out giving the matter though, that
the catch must be made danger
ously near the stand, if, indeed,
it was made at all. There was a
chance that the ball might drop
in the first tier of boxes.
Twenty thousand men were
bowling at him, taunts and in
suits beat down on him like a.
storm. He heard nothing, saw
nothing, but that swiftly falling
spot of white. He was aware that
the stand was very near; the
sound of the shouting was in his
very ears, but he dared not look,
and then, with only a stride far
Their to go, he saw the white of the
ball flash against the dark green
of the board wall-it was going to
drop outside, after all.
The old Crab made one more
mighty leap, his gloved hand he
thrust out with an upward scoop
ing motion, his right arm he dou-
bled across bis face. Then it SEEM
red to him that all the flrework in
the world exploded inside his
head, and the darkness shut down.
Some minutes later the Crab
opened his eyes. Many voices
were crying:
Get back there! Give him air,
What do you want to do-strangle
him to death? Get back!"
There was an arm about his
neck, and the Crab was mildly

CHAPTER IL.
The Low Brow.

"Biff" Bohannon was a Glow
brow" If ever there was one. When
they were dealing out foreheads,
they gave Biff the lowest one they
had in stock. There was just
enough room between the hair and
the eyebrows to serve as a shelf
on which to hang catcher's mask
and that was room enough for all
practical purposes. The three
grim old ladies who spin the
thread and handle the shears fore
saw that Biff was to become a star
catcher in the big league, and per-
haps they thought any more fore
head would be in his way.
The low, coarse instincts which
go with that particular style of
Uranium became Biff very well
when at the bat, and from New
York to st. Louis he was celebrat-
ed for the savage brutality with
which he treated opposing pitch
ers. This appeared in large fig
ures in his batting average at the
end of the season.
Biff was a low brow and he new
er denied it, but he was also the
greatest catcher that ever buekled
on a wind pad. and he never de-
MED that either. He knew 1t a
little better than any one else.
Bohannon came out of a small
coal-mining town in the Middle
West, and he cost the manager of
the New York club more money
than Biff had ever seen in his life
He was worth every cent of the
price, and he proved it by "break-
ing up" the first two games in
which he played-one with a
home run into the bleachers, and
