Mr.. Fox in his application for the
writ, says that Mrs Marguerite Hin
Fox, his wife took her son away from

reason for his wife's action Is that
she has begun separation action
against him and has apparently aban-
doned him. He says Mrs. Fox has
very little means to support their SON,
and that he has ample money for that
purpose. He also explained that ho

of typhoid fever which seized him in

can get in good condition he ought to

Revelle has pitched more games in the
Virginia League than any other man
who has ever toed the knoll in these
parts, for he spent almost all of six sea-
sons a member of the Portsmouth or
Richmond clubs. Starting with the
Portsmouth club in 1906. the first year of
the league. he remained there with tail

the last half of the 1907 season. Al
though he never worked with but one
pennant- winning team, Revelle has man
aged to make considerably more than an
even break in his work, for he was win

During this period he pitched 200 games,

Barring accident, we will go into the
worlds series in better condition than we
nave been at any time in recent years
remarked Connie Mack, manager of the
worlds champion Athletics, as he step
ped from a train which brought him and
his players over from Philadelphia at
noon today.
Bender is rounding into his best form,
while McInnes' arm is healing rapidly
and he Will positively play in the series.
II shall work all my pitchers against
the Nationals, but none of them will be
asked to so the entire route. Four or five
innings for each will be sufficient to keep
them on edge. and then we will have
some real hard games with the All-Star
team next week.
Il am not making any predictions nor
claims. but if the Giants beat us they
will know they have been in some ball
mate our team. Ii has shown that it is
winner and it will go into this series
with every confidence.
Much has been said about the ba Sc
running proclivities of the Giants, and !
grant you that this is their strong suit,
but they will not be running wild on us.
Our catchers' records show that base run
ming against us is not easy. There is but
one player in this league who runs bases
against us, and that is Cobb. But l
don't recall that McGraw has any GOODS
any more than has any one else. So far
as pulling OFF inside base ball. l will
take nay chances. You do not see any
thing new on the ball field in these days.
All teams play about the same kind of
ball when you come down to it.
1T will be decided Thursday where the
first game will be played. We have had

CHICAGO. October 2.-Chicago's PEN
nant hopes were shattered by New York
yesterday. when the Cubs were shut out,

pect now is to tie the fasteners. as New
York is seven and a half games in the
lead. and Chicago has only seven re-

twelve games to play.

stars have a winning percentage Of
40, while the same number of Giants
have $50.
Mack's twirlers have been wilder than
having walked AS men. against 279 by
the New Workers. The American
Leasuers have been hit harder. too
permitting LIE safe drives. while the
National Leaguers were hit safely LOIS
times. In strike-outs they are about
even.
Now here is just where the figures do
not count At least Mack's pitchers. de-
spite wildness and base hits. have won
ninety eight games and lost forty-eight
while McGraw's beavers were winning
ninety-two and losing fifty. 1t is
games won which count for pitcher
and not his record in bases on balls and
base hits-except, of course. in the
pinches.
The pitchers who will triumph in the
worlds series will be those who have
the confidence and are effective when
runs are imminent.
The local base ball season is rapidly
dra wing to a close. But three more
games remain to be played here. and the
Nationals finish their years work dur
ing the last three days of the week, when
they play in Boston. On the whole the
season has not been a success, at leas
not from an artistic standpoint The team
mas nnlSned IN the same poSltioil-SeNenti
as last year, and has not as good a
percentage. That the fact that Jim Nc
Aleer had other irons in the fire and did
not give the team the attention that he
ordinarily would had some effect on its
showing goes without saying.
But there has been no Improvement in
the makeup of the team since last sea-
son. The players who have made up the
nucleus for d good team have not been
added to. as none of the new men Sc
cured has come up to expectations.
The new manager has the same job on
his hands had his predeceSSorS-he
must build up a winner.

that Thomas was in better form now than
he had ever been before. He has been
