JUNE BRIDES SCARCE
Only Four Licenses Issued This
Month-High Cost of Living to
Blame

This is the month of brides as well
as roses, so said, but Clerk Hobbs
book shows that only four marriage
licenses have been issued so far this
month. This is not keeping up the
June average by any means, and
something must be wrong besides
the RICH cost of living.

Moeller ran back. leaped into the air at
least three feet, and caught the ball,
at the same time crashing with full force
on his left shoulder against the concrete
barrier. The bone slipped out of its
socket, and Moeller had to be assisted
to the clubhouse. The catch saved two
runs. and as 1t turned out, this number
would have won for the home team.

best team won, and the victory was
gained in a clean-cut manner. The Ma

laint fashion; only one error cropped out,

Maps run hunt
Milan had a great day at the bat with
four hits out of eight times UP, and three
more stolen bases to his credit. In addi-

JENNINGS SLATED

Hughey Not Popular with Players
and Rot Likely to Sign
Again.
wild BILL" DONOVAN
TO SUCCEED "EE-YAH"
Ty Cobb's Contract Expires This
Fall and Georgia Peach Will De-
mand Salary of $4,000.

Special to The Washington Heraid
Cleveland July s. - From an inside
source 1t was learned here to-day that
this will positively be Hughey Jennings
last year as manager of the Detroit
Tigers. Ty Cobb's contract expires. and
when he signs next winter he will de-
mand. 1t is said. $4,000. the exact sum
now drawn by Jennings. Other players
like Bush and Dubuc. will be sure to get
Increases. Jennings, 1t is claimed. is
not popular with his players, and Bill
Donovan is slated for the managerial
berth.
The best ball player on the Cleveland
club to-day is the veteran, Terry Turner
and but for Clark Griffith, little Cotton
Top would be with some minor league
club. Waivers were asked on Turner
early in the season. and Grif was the
only American League manager who re-
fused to waive. Consequently Turner was
retained. and has been playing such great
ball the past three weeks that $1,000 in
cash could not buy him from the Maps.
The Nationals are a better ball club
on the road by Is per cent than a home
team.
Just why. is a mystery as inexplicable
as the fact that Grifith has been able
to turn out a winner when half a dozen
other managers in the Capital have fallen
down.
The work of the Climbers in the four
games just won here has been remark
able. Whether or not the cool weather
had anything to do with IL. nobody can
say; but the fact remains that they play
better game in every department on
the road than at home. They take more
chances on the bases. the pitchers work
better, and the team as a whole hits
much stronger.
The defeat OF Vean Gregg to-day gives
the Climbers the distinction OF making
life miserable for every real sure-enough
twirler in the league. Such pitchers as
Walsh. Joe Wood. Russell Ford. Coombs,
Dubuc. MullIn and Baumgardner have all
been beaten by Grinfs youngsters, and
the rout of vean Gregg to-day about
completes the list
Although Boston trimmed the White
Sox, the Nationals crawled up a half
game on the leaders. The Climbers will
be idle tomorrow and Tuesday. while
Boston Is playing. but It would not be
surprising TO see the White Sox grab at
least one Of the remaining games from
the league leaders. WILLIAM PEET.

SECOND GAME

Bill Steen. whom It will be remembered
performed SO brilliantly for the Maps
while this club was in Washington, was

opposed to him was Jim Vaughn. the
burly Texan.
At the start II looked as IL Vaughn

/ sweet, for he was hit hard enough by a
couple OF left-hand batters TO score
several runs. but only one resulted.
Steen made the Nationals look like
rank amateurs until the third. and in
this round the game was won. Hits came
at the right time. and everything broke
according to Hoyle.

what proved to be the winning tally.
! Vaughn kept the Cleveland hits well
scattered and held the fee at armslength
until danger threatened in the eighth,
when Danny Moeller came to his rescue
with the catch that sent the Rochester
Rambler to the hospital.
