Horace Fogel started something
when the Phillie manager tipped off
the story that the umpires in the Ma
tional division were too crooked 10
see straight. McGraw, president Lynch
and umpire Brennan are after Fogie's
toupee and he will have TO take an
extended trip or face the music. Bren-
nan believes that he was accused d1-
rectly OF throwing games to the Giants
and he is sorer than a spanked baby.
He has asked the National commission
TO investigate and McGraw and Lynch
are for the Investigating. 1t is up to
Fogei to produce proof or retract sew
eral thousand words to the effect that
things were not as level in the league
as 1t should be-
Now it is Col. Three Fingers" Brown
Of the Chicago bearcats, who is to get
the shepherds crook. Coming as a
chain lightning surprise, .Mordecars
waivers were asked for by the Cub club
and the report confirmed by Frank
Chance. The three fingered finger for
the Cubs has been one of the pictur-
esque characters in baseball Following

old sport with the scythe has cut him
down at last.
Even the coast crowd is beginning TO

many Of his race, fails to produce the
stamina that a prize fighter demands

too much oratorical juice preceding his 1
fight with Mandot. Now his manager,

Score another for the Red Sox in the !
snte-mOrtem series OF gab1ests pre-
ceding the world series. Ty Cobb has
gone on record as favOring the hosiery 1
department as against the individuals /
from Gotham. Cobb says that the Red 4
Sox have it on the Giants in general 1
attack and pitching, with a good defen-
sive organization to back up their
stronger points. He says that the New
York club will be case hardened for
the world series, having passed through
a similar ordeal last year with the Ath-
letics.
Coming to the top Of the booze ar

following little ditty has been sub
mitted:
Sez Hank O'Day
One summer day
To Johnny King, sez he:
zone moment, John,
Before you're gone
I'll have a word with ye.
~You used to be
A Cub" SEE he,
And winked a knowing wink.
"Just let me know
Before you go
What brand OF booze they drink"
