AL might be some shortstop himself.
Bridwell is not fluking. He is pull
ing the same fast stuff every day,
making quick pick-ups and throws
from awkward positions and getting
his share of bingles. Few of his hits
travel for extra bases, but any of the
opposing pitchers will tell you that
Bridwen in pinch is one of the most
dangerous men in the National
League at bat.
Mordecai Brown is the same old
hero on the West Side. The three
digited veteran was given all the ap-
plause in the first game and merited
it. It is true his old hook curve did
not break as sharply as in the past,
but the willy brain was there to make
up for any deficiencies and Borwnie
pitched like the hero of the Cub ma
chine of former days. He gave his
old pals only six hits and not one

progressed as far as second, but were
marooned. This performance of
Browns yesterday was not an acct
dent. The veteran has rounded to
form in the last three weeks, his
game leg no longer bothers him and
he is the mainstay of the Red pitch
ing staff When there is any rescuing
to be done Tinker shoots Brown into
the fray, just as Chance used to do
when Brown was a Cub. Mordecai
would look mighty sweet in a Cub
uniform now and would take whole
mess of work off the heaVy-laden
shoulders of Larry Cheney.
The batting rally the Cubs staged
in the eighth inning of the second
game was a bowler. Evers singled,
Schultz tripled, Zim knocked four

squirt of the Cubs. Until the last few
days Schultz has been hitting the
highest flies of any man in baseball.
Now he has substituted distance for
height and the flattened out smashes
are swelling his batting averages.
Best of all, the majority Of the bin
giles are coming at the psychological
moment.
Cincinnati closes today and the
Cards, come to the West Side for a
pair of battles tomorrow. Evers will
breathe easy tomorrow night, espe-
ciaIly if his team can cop two of the
three games. The strain of the last
few days has been a terrific one on
the pitching staff, but the men have
stood up under fire in wonderful fash
ion. Overall's return to the game at
the present time will be a great help,
and Cheney, HUMPHREYS and Smith
will have a chance to recuperate.
Lavender needs lots Of work and
will continue to get it. He will twirl
one of the games tomorrow. Today
the Cubs are eight and a half games
behind the league-leading Giants.
This time last season they were much
farther back and they pulled down
that long lead in a fashion that
alarmed New York. Things might be
worse.
For the second time in three days
we have to apologize for Joe Benz,
White Sox pitcher. Joe was chased
again, this time by st. Louis. He
lasted less than two rounds, and in
that time the Browns rolled up four
runs on two singles, a double, a
homer and a wild pitch. This Benz
guy has us puzzled. Before starting
against Detroit early in the week Joe
had finished two games at home, and
finished them in a workmanlike man

Yes, it was odd what a general
favorite Lin Loo became. Of
course ladies are apt to take a
fancy to Cinnamon, especially
when they are converted. People
say that they only pretend to be-
lieve, for the sake of advantages.
I don't know much about that,
but anyhow, the ladies all liked
him and, what is stranger, the
men too. Lin Loo was astonish-
ingly well posted in western
ways. But he wouldn't drink
and wouldn't swear. None of us
thought the less of him on that
account.
"Any news of your cousin,
Loo?" we would ask, as we stop
ped in to watch him bending over
his iron and pressing with his
scrawny arms. And Loo always
looked up and smiled and shook
his head.
Whether or not any news of
the missing cousin filtered
through to him, he always denied
knowledge of his relative. Yet
somehow he never seemed to
doubt that Lee would return, And

grand army of the republic"
This sounded a little like bias
phemy to my father, who was a
Grand Army man, and fought I'M
der Grant, though it cost him his
estates to do so and he was boy
cotted by the neighbors until an
indefinite time in the seventies.
However, all that is forgotten
now, thank God. We understood
that Lin Lee had felt the breath
of patriotism stirring in the dry,
sapless bones of his native land
and wished to enroll himself un-
der the Dragon flag to fight
against the tyrant, and, as pa
triotic Americans, we could not
but approve his choice.
Lin Lee disappeared just as
mysteriously as Lin Loo had
come, but that made no differ
ence. Lin Loo was just as capaz
bic a 1aundrytnan as Lin Lee. The
ladies of our family, in fact, main
tanned that Lin Loo had a special
genius for interpreting the laun-
dry needs of their own garments
and, as a result, Lin Loo was to
be seen ironing until far into the
night in his little store on Main
street. It is strange, by the way,
isn't it, that one always sees
Cinnamon ironing and never
washing.
Lin Loo was also an Episcopal
ian, we found, and when he made
his first visit to our church
everyone sat up and gasped. He

After their first return from Crocker

Thus. while In former expeditions the

EXTRAORDINARY EQUIPMENT.

Never in the history of Arctic explora-
ton has an expedition started out with
such wonderfully complete equipment as
will be carried by Professor Macmillan
party. Everything that modern science
can devise will be taken along to study
the country. its geology. its plant and
animal life. A complete meteorological
sub-station will be set up In the Arctic,
with instruments to measure tempera-
lures of air and water, velocity of winds,
barometric pressures, precipitation. etc
There will be a seismograph, to record
earth movements, sounding apparatus
everything. These are being supplied To
the party by the United States govern
ment. to which reports will be made.
This much for the scientific side Of the
expedition: most important. IT is true
but not half so interesting as the human
side.
