Or come little late.

Out White Sox.

Clark Griffth's rampant Senators
couldn't forget their pennant aspira
lions yesterday. even when they were
six runs behind, for they overcame
that handicap and batted their way to
the front. taking another victory from
the struggling White Sox. The final
score was to Z, and the combat last
ed ten rounds
If "Grif' can keep his athletes
thinking they're going to win that
flag, they are liable to make good with

stuff that makes champions In their
battle yesterday for after the Sox had
taken such commanding lead the
Senators stuck to the fight. put in a
pitcher who stopped the Chicagoans.
then gradually climbed to the front.

in the eighth, and driving In the win
ming run In the tenth.
1t was a most worthy victory. for II
was gained by clean and consistent
batting. The White Sox never made
an error to help their opponents to
win But they were unable to stop
the smuggling. even with the use OF
three pitchers, and Washington wound
up with a total of sixteen base hits
for twenty-five bases, which just
about tells the tale of the victory.

Capture by 5 to 2.

Philadelphia, Pa, Aug. 6.-"And
then there were eight and a half"
BY cleaning up both ends and the
middle of d double header with the
Phillies yesterday Chicago took full
advantage of the tumble given the Gil
ants by Pittsburg and revived the
waning interest in the bunting chase
The statistics here were to 2 for the
first half and TO 8 for the second.
James Sanford Lavender. alias Jim
my, annexed a couple of Philly scalps
in the opening encounter, which was
his at every stage of the doings- He
autpitched the veteran Earl Moore and
had the locals at his mercy after the
third inning.
Edward Motor Reulbach undertook
to deliver the second victory, but he
was obliged to withdraw after the
fourth inning, during which he had
tire trouble. Something went wrong
with the mechanical gear case of his
pitching hand and he exhibited the
works to Capt. Tinker. The captain
wigdagged the manager to have some
body warm up.
That somebody was Charley Smith.
the circuit rider. who took the slab
with the score 3 10 against him in
the fifth inning and held the Phillies
helpless while Chances men pulled the
game out of the fire. Not until the
score board showed the Pirates were
beating the Giants did the Cubs bestir
themselves to win the second game.
They they hit up the speed and licked
the tar out of Alexander the Great be-
| fore the game was over.
A brilliant double play baked them

| In that situation, with the bases full
and one gone. Luderus not only beat
Sheckard out of a base hit but pulled
| a double play on it by way of the
plate. robbing his former team mates
| of some precious tallies.

The news that the returning play

BoxINGl ON THE
COAST SECURE

misleading reports concerning the fate
of the California boxing game have
been sent out during the past fort
night by a local sporting writer. The
truth of the matter is that the ''peti
ton" circulated by the foes Of the
boxing game was thrown out of the
county clerks office, who found that
scarcely SO per cent of the signers
were registered voters. The movement
against the game has died quick
death and there appears to be moth
ing in sight to lead TO the belief that
boxing will not flourish here for the
next year at least.

INDIANA
LEAGUE

Gary now leads in the pennant race
by a margin of a game and a half.
while Valparaiso. which Is setting a
fast clip, promises to give Hammond
hard fight for second honors. Indi-
ana Harbor comes next and is taking
some big steps on their upward climb.
There is jubilant crowd of fans at
Crown Point this week. who are all
celebrating in the event of their vic
tory over Hammond and East Chicago
landing them in fifth. place. The
county seaters are going so far as to
wager that they have one of the best
teams in the league and promise to
make them all step high before the
close of the season.
Lest we forget. Liese had the bug
on the Hammond warriors last Sun
day afternoon. handing them the
whitewash sign for nine straight in
nings At that they were able to
gather six hits. but when 1t came to
crossing the plate the steel city ag-
gregation emphatically said NO"
Indiana Harbor demonstrated that
they can come back when they helped
themselves to a double header from
Laporte Sunday. During the two
games Indiana Harbor scored twenty
runs which is evidence enough that
there was some smuggling done.
The spirit of enthusiasm among the
fans of the N. l. league continues to
grow more intense every day. and II
1t is not checked pretty soon we fear
it may result fatally to some of them

already seen the pennant at their re-
| spective parks.
