WALTER JOHNSON
MAKES NEW RECORD

Detroit, Aug. 16.-Walter Johnson,
Washingtons mighty pitcher, made
baseball history yesterday when his
team defeated Detroit, 8 to Z. 1t was
his 18th consecutive victory, this sea-
sons record in the major leagues
Earlier in the season he won IL games
before being beaten. Today was the
fifth time he opposed Detroit this
year On each occasion he was re-
turned the winner
With Johnson pitching in invincible
form, Detroit had not the slightest
chance of victory With his club hold

Chicago, Aug. 16.--It TOOK Eddie CT

where they get off at And the faDks
just about showed Eddie that he was
pretty lucky. All this happened on
the south end lot yesterday before 4
large gathering of lady day fans, the

nosing home with } 10 win after
the Chance gang lad forgotten Its
manners and almost tied the Gun; in
the final session.
1t was no day for thrillers. The Leaf
was intense and what breeze blew
was shut off by the shell-like grand.
stand. The heat itself was bearable,
and none complained, but when tee
Yanks got to stirring up a blood curd
ling mess in the ninth it was too
much of a good thing. Several of the
lady rooters were on the verge OF
nervous prostration, but when the fair
Eddie shut off the power before the
Yanks could tie the score they chang
ed their minds and headed for hcme
it was careless of Eddie to allcM all
this excitement. Score:

DOPE FOR BUGS,

The last month of the season is con-
sidered the worst. The team that can
play winning ball during this period
climbs. Since the first of August,
Quincy, Davenport and Danville have
won more than they have lost, while
the other five teams are below the 800
mark. With Dubuque hitting the road
next Monday it would not be surpris-
ing if the four teams mentioned would
make up the first division at the finish.
During July Dubuque played ten
games on the road, winning just one.
During August they played five on the
road and lost four, making two wins
out of Is games abroad since July l.
Monday the team starts on an 1S-game
road trip, II scheduled and one post
poned, and if the August road record
is no better than the July, Davenport
Danville and Decatur will Lave little
difficulty in finishing ahead of the
Hustlers. Thus 1t would seem that
Quincy will have to watch Davenport
and Danville, but that Dubuque is not
to be seriously considered as a con
tender for the rag. At any rate, il
seems reasonably certain that Du
| buque will not make any gains on
| Quincy during the next two weeks
Dubuque is strong on it's home
grounds, but has only ten more games
there.-Quincy Herald.

SAVING. OF LIFE
COSTS BOAT WIN
Mike McDermott of Susan Res
cues 3-year- old From Lake
Losing Valuable Time.

Because the Suean II. of the Chi
cago Yacht club lost three minutes
while one of her crew was rescuing a
3-year-old boy who had fallen over
board from a motorboat the Cherry OF
the Jackson Park Yacht club over

son finish and tied the downtown craft
in the second of three races for the
Upton cup yesterday over rectGngu-
lar course.
Immediately after the boats crossed
the line Susan H., skipped by Rubin
kan, stood off the judges boat, while
her crew protested, averring that their
spar beat the Cherry, with Art War
nick at the stick. by four inches. The
officials decided, however, that one
of the two tied boats finishing first
in today's event would be given the
perfect score for yesterdays race.
The rescue was staged after the
boats had finished the first leg. Su-
san II. was leading the Bug by hun
dred feet or so when James O'Brien,
1859 Fifth avenue, fell from the Myr-
tie B., which was following the race.
Michael McDermott of the l. A. c.,
national breast stroke champion, and
a member of the Susan's crew, leaped
from the stern of the yacht and swan
for the lad. He reached the child and
held it's head above water until a rope
was thrown to him.
The rescue took place about three
miles off shore while the motorboat
was making Is miles an hour.
Rules of the Upton races state that
yachts shall offer all possible aid to
persons or craft in danger, but under
the same code judges are not permitted
to make any allowance for the time
lost. They may, however, order that
the race be sailed over

RED CENT" CALDWELL

If Jim Vaughn, the ex-Yankee pitch
er, is going to wait for gay Caldwell,
the New York club hurler, to pay an
alleged SIG debt, tie former has a long
wait ahead. A few days ago Vaughn
complained TO the national commission
that his old mate owed him the above
amount Wednesday, the commission
served notice on Caldwell that IL he
didn't cough up in five days he would
be barred from baseball until he set
tied. Caldwell made dash for B. B.
Johnson's Office as soon as the Yanks
arrived in town and when Ban learn
ed that Caldwell's claim is that he
doesn't owe the coin he promised to
have the commission reopen the case.
Meanwhile Caldwell will play ball and

NOTES OF THE, GAME.
Morgan, the new shortstop, vice Milt
Reed, failed to show up. He wired
that he was homesick and had gone
! back home to visit with his kinsfolk.
We hate to accuse him of plagiarism,
but he surely must have read about
Larry Chappell. Otto Koepping obliged
at short in dazzling fashion, grabbing
everything that came, his way Pat
Flaharty held down the keystone
/ NillS OuLdLu CdNOflSu III TlBuL-
Carrigan copied the fielding honors
with an 1S-karat catch in the fifth
which probably saved the game. Craig
who had walked to first, started out
like the Overland limited when Hart
ford drove a wicked liner into lef.
which had every ear mark of a two
cushion clout. Carrie glommed the ap
pie after a sensational run. Craig
was almost to third, and was easily
doubled. Had Carrie missed the drive
it's hard to predict what would have
happened 10 the old game, as Lucas
next up drove the ball clear to the
centerfield fence for two sacks. He
was nailed at third in an attempt tC
stretch it into triple.
1t looked kind of bad in the eight
when Hendrix showed signs Of blow
ing" Hartford singled and stole sec
ond with one gone. Lucas had three
balls and no strikes. but then famed
Vinson did likewise.
