BINGLES AND BUNTS
Mid-SeaSon Form.
By Grdntldnd Rice.

Hank O'Day hasn't grabbed off the pennant yet but
Hank has STAYED off disaster good bit longer than
several critics figured he would six weeks ago. ODay
carries neat chance to upset tradition this by
holding the Reds among the leaders the time
In over decade.
1t all depends upon Hank. His people have the stuff
of which 1913 ball clubs made-a brace of good
catchers fair pitching strength, batch Of good hters
and plenty of speed.
Grif left the club intact, with Esmond and Benton
added. Esmond plugged yawning gap at short which
had been open since Tommy Corcoran faded And with
lefthander of Bentons caber added to Keee, Suggs,
Gaspar and Smith, the pegging corps stood complete.
The Redland contingent should finish in the upper
set this and make fight of it the best part of
the distance.
Ty Cobb and Frank Schultz have agreed to drop
away from the auto trophy contest leaving the field
open to others who may yearn to burn gasolene out
the highway of fame.
Mack's ball club may be badly crippled but long
as Connie that nied of his around the cir
cult there will be loud coming the final
ranking Not might notice It among October's

down by the latter in the agreement
they are satisfied to enter into with the
city, were modified by the Councimcn
II was learned, however. that in the dis.

land about 400 feet long and more
than 200 feet wide Ground is also "a
he given for boulevard. The city OF

owners will 60 over this sketch anc
win meet with the city officials anc
Board Of Trade members again ON next
Thursday night. II was said today by
ono who attended the conference, that
the riparian owners were agreeable e
anything that is fair TO all parties con.
ccrncd and there did not seem TO b,
anything in the way of a satisfactory
agreement being reached.
During the evening Councilman jacob
zimmerman, Of the First ward, leaned
back too far in his chair and went ia
the floor with crash This was th,
only excitement during the conference
When those present learned that tho
Councilman was not injured, they could
not restrain their mirth and Mr.. Zim.
