DAST PERFORMANCES
i From L Stahl to Clark Griffith

OF course, Griff's Gloomy Gawks have
lost four in row before and still kept
in fast company, but when they allow
the Chase Orphans to climb out Of the
slough - despond over their PROSTATE
bodies, we'uns get bilious and wrathful.
To be beaten is bad enough. but to allow
the BraggartvilIe BIusterers to put over
four in a row is sure enough provaca-

NOTES OF THE GAME

Germany schaefer did not have a sin
gle chance at second base, but put a lot
Of life into the team during practice.
The final game OF the. New York Sc
ries will be played here tomorrow. Grin
will probably pitch Dixie Walker back
at the Yankees, or he may start Joe
Engel or Paul Musser. He did not know
which one himself when asked tonight.
Griff sent John Henry, the catcher, up
to Amherst, Mass, yesterday to sign
Vernon--the crack Amherst pitcher, and
when John returned to camp to-day he
gave out the unpleasant news that Yer
non had already accepted terms with the
Chicago Cubs. Vernon had been highly
recommended to Griff, and Henry says
the youngster has everything needed for
a place in the major league.
Jerry Akers and Buck Becker, who
were traded to Montreal with BIZ Cum
ningham, left for the Capital this MORN
ing. They have been ordered to toin the
Montreal club at once Cunningham
leaves here tomorrow for the Canadian
city. Cunny was sorry to leave the boys.
AS soon as he was told Of the trade he
said to Grin: I'm be back in the big
