CHASE MAKES A HOME RUN

For six innings the game between the
Senators and the New York Yankees at
American League Park yesterday after
noon bore all the outward signs OF real
struggle Of the diamond without detract-
ing any from the ali-star vaudeville show
as furnished by Nick Altrock and Ger
many" Schaefer. At this important and
withal critical point Clarke Griffith
learned that the Boston Red Sox had de-
feated the Athletics in shut-out game,
and that, win or lose, second place was
assured his team. Then burlesque re-
placed the struggle. and the Yankees
closed the season In a blaze OF glory.
They actually won a game and by a score
of 8 to S.
When the glad tidings that second place
was won were posted on the scoreboard
Grit smiled canny little smile, and when
, the Yankees came up for the seventh inn
ing Nick Altrock was the man who faced
them In the box. How the crowd roared
when the old twirler threw out his chest
on the rubber, How the veteran Schaefer
roared and yelled as he took his place at
second base. and Griffith smiled. The
Yankees grinned in hungry anticipation
when they came up. but Altrock shut them
out In fine style for one inning. No
Roman hero was prouder than Altrock as
he walked to the bench Schaefer chortled,
but Grif smiled
Breathessly did the crowd await the
next inning. and they we're not 10 be dis
appointed. Altrock took his place again
after a consultation with Schaefer. but
Schultz walked and Midkiff singled. At
this point Griffith and Schaefer could stand
II no longer. Agler was chased of first
base, Griffith entered the box and Schacf-
err remained at second base. The "Old
Fox" wound up and tossed one at Chase.
! who at once picked II for a home run
(, and the winning runs battered over the
plate.
Right then and there Schaefer played
| his hand. He fired Grit on the spot, and
while the crowd writhed in Mysteries of
nirth he entered the box 10 save the

| tions to pitch the game Of his career.

When the game was over everybody

harmless fun and rare comedy provided

Yankees because they wound UP with a
victory.
While second place was In doubt, how

two home runs. Hughes and Cashion.
particularly the latter, prevented danger.
and when the latter retired the score was
6 to In favor Of the Senators.

spr,nt to the tape in the pennant races Of
che two big leagues A compilation OF
the averages OF both teams since August
70. when stahrs men began the series
with the Philadelphia Athletics which re-
suited in three straight victories and
practically clinched the pennant, brings
these surprising facts TO light.
The records OF the players in the five
weeks Immediately preceding the world
series Is likely TO give more OF an idea
of how they will perform In the big mkt
ARE than the figures for the whole season.
Some OF the men have been living down
poor work early in the year. while others
nave been resting content on iaurels
earned before the opposing pitchers
rounded into form and the campaign be-
come hot Larry Doyle and Speaker seem
70 be In the latter class
From the last week In August until
about the middle Of September, both
teams were supposed to be at the top OF
their stride and out to clinch the pennant'
THE Giants had recovered from the DIS
iastrous slump which threatened defeat,
while the Ped Sox were moving on at
tbrisker pace to finish the race as quickly
as possible. For the last two weeks the
teams have eased up considerably, hav-
ing the nag In hand. but the records are
none the less Illuminating. Over the same
iperiod the two mines have travelled az
labout the same pace, the Red Sox WIN
ming nineteen and losing nine games up
10 last Tuesday, while the Giants won
twenty and lost eleven. But the hitting
of the National League champions has
been far and away ahead OF the Red Sox,
although not I'D TO their early season
form. In extra base batting the margin
Is st,Il greater in New York's favor. In
fielding both teams have the same aver
lage. The Red Sox have slowed up and
the Giants have improved.
The team batting average of McGraws
men for the thirty-one games was 2'o'
while the Red Sox fell behind to .254. But
the American League champions USED
their hits to better purpose. making III
count for 12s runs, while 2S1 New YORK
hits netted only 1871 runs.
The Giants. however, hit for total OF
,s74 bases, while the Red sox dropped
hundred behind, with go. Forty doubles

leads in triples to 8 In the field the REQ

made by the Giants were committed by

[ Wrangell, July 23-About two o'clock an unknown girl who has a bad reputation, shot and killed a man by the name of Anderson, and wounded an- other in the foot. Anderson recently came to Wrangell from San Francisco. It seems
 he and his companion were cal ling upon the lady and quar- lreled over the drinks. The ar gument terminated in abusive language on both sides, and fin ally the girl siezed a revolver from the drawer of her tannie and shot Anderson through the heart. He fell to the floor without a word, and the en- ragged girl though frightened turned the weapon upon his Icompanion and fired several shots. He however was mak- ing break and only one shot look effect wounding him in the foot.
 Corners inquest was held this morning. And the girl was examined this afternoon in the commissioners court. The
 girl said in examination that she was angry and that she | did net mean 10 kill Anderson. She missed her aim which was directed at the other man, whose name is not given.
 Before a crowded court the girl told a pathetic story of her waywardness and the events Heading to the murder.
 One of the most tragic incl
 dents of the whole affair lies ill the fact that the wife of the murdered man together with
 his little child are steaming
 northward on the Humboldt to
 meet such a terrible welcome.

There were 263 mem- .bers of the local union pres Ient and the proposition was considered from many view points. It was the opinion of the majority when the vote was talk len that the union should abide by the scheduled of prices pub llshed some weeks ago at the headquarters of the union al Wrangell. The men say that they cannot consistently ac- .cept the compromise offer made by the cannerymen be- cause it is not material ad- vance over the prices paid al some canneries last season. A great deal of spirit and enthus- iasim was apparent by the ire quent applause and clapping which permiated the city street during the. meeting.
