 page that threatens serious trouble for the clubs ahead of them.
 Before the season opened the Pi- whose pennant chances were bright. From one-cause and another, however, largely through ineffective box work, they Jagged far behind the procession until July 4 found them in fifth posi- ton and several games short of the .50O mark Meanwhile the Giants had fought their way to a commanding lead as the Philadelphias and Brook lyns fell from their high estate.
 But the last ten days has seen a decided change. CIarke's men are carrying everything before them. Yes-, terday saw their eighth straight vic tory.
 The pitchers are now, apparently back in the form that caused the staff to be classed on paper just about the best in the league.
 The week in the American league was tame as compared with the stir ring happenings in the older organiza- tion. Cleveland got some satisfaction out of it by keeping pace with the Athletics, each of these teams winning four out of six games Washington and Chicago both fell off and Boston broke only little better than even. St. Louis was the only team to hold the leaders in games won and lost, the New Works splitting their wins and losses evenly while Detroit kept up it's weak work by losing five of the seven games played

DON'T FAIL TO ATTEND
 The Alteration Sale Starting SATURDAY, JULY 18th

of the Connect1cut Society, Sons of the American Revolution, the board of managers earnestly discussed the s,lr- gestion of G. D. Seymour of New Haven to purchase the birthplace os Nathan Hale at South Coventry, as {. Hale, who, Mir. Seymour terms .tha supreme youthful hero of the RaVolu- tionary war; There is soraef$ ,1as- tlon as to whether this South Coven- try house is the birthplace of Hale. although there seems to be no dos,rf put what he lived there as a boy MT. Seymour said the house ana farm could be purchased for $B.0O0. pos-1 s1bly less, and that for an additianaI expenditure bp the state society of $9,OOo the place could be put in proper order. He would have the farm, of as0 acres much of which is woodIand. treated by modern forestry methods. a part Of the farm near the house used by tmhe caretaker and the house fitted with furniture of the Revolutionary dry used In the same period that can be secured and which would prove ap proprfate.
 MT. Seymour is familiar with tha property and deems it important that the state society should secure the property and make of it a sort of 'headuarters for our society" He is
 
 house in Guifford. In recent letter to President Lee, MT. Seymour ad- m1rably set forth his knoWledge of Nathan Hale's history. He states in me following paragraph his wishes:
 My idea Is that a board of man. agers of Hale's birthplace should be appointed from the society at larca to undertake the restoration and ad- miniStration of the building To b,zy the place and put it in order would probably cost not less than $1O.OoO There Woul be some annual cost. of course. for maint tenance, but I should be disappointed if in so large a society as ours, there were not in it's mem bership a sufficient number of men able and willing to annually contribute enough to maintain the place. if tse income of the organization was foysnd to be sufficient. I think memberstin on the board of managers of Nathan Hale's birthplace would be one of the most honorable positions that any Connecticut citizen could hold The board of managers would, of course. have their meetings in the house which would form 8 sort of head quarters for our society. An annual field day of the society on the birth day (June 5 at the birthplace, could be, made one of the great occasions of the year. The season would be perfect for such gathering in the country
 Among the board of managers of the society are Jonathan TrumbulI and Henry F. Parker of Norwiche Morton F. Plant. Carl J. viets and Ernest E, Rogers of New London.

BROWN FAILS IN SWIM.
Life Saver Covers but Three Miles
 in Hours 26 Minutes.

Commodore Alfred Brown, the long distance swimmer of the American Life Saving society. failed Sunday in his attempt to swim from Nortons S Point. Coney Island, to College Point distance approximately of twenty five miles. With a strong wind blow ing from the southwest against the tide, and making an unusually rough sea. Brown after being in the, water two hours and twenty six minutes, steadily out of his course, gave up the attempt, after covering about three miles.
 After a long delay in trying to de- termine the best course to pursue, and the possibility of the rough sea sub- siding, Brown plunged from the point at 11.04 a. m. The waves bumped the swimmer about like a cork, breaking in his face and making progress fruit less. He cantinued his struggle against the elements on the hope of getting to Ambrose Channel and then into the Narrows where he felt it would be easy to go up the East river to his destination.
 For more than an hour he remained within a half mile of the starting point, tossing around and riding on the high waves without making anys ad- vance. He was accompanied by rowboat in which were two members of his society. Charles Kaufman and F. Frommhold. in addition to the thir- ty-foot gasoline launch Francis
 On board the launch was a party of life savers, headed by Commodore Ed ward c. Brennan, who mapped out his course. At about 1 o'clock the launch sighted a capsized fishing sloop and. after rescuing four of it's party of seven, returned to the assistance Of Brown, who after a short time aban- doned the swim.
 When coming out of the water Brown was still strong, and showed little effect of his stiff battle against the wind and tide, and announced his intention to again try the swim within two weeks Brown has a long list of distance sWims to his credit In 1907 he won the championship of the Amer ican Life Saving society in the swim from the Battery to Coney Island, a distance of thirteen miles, which he covered in 4 hours and 45 minutes.
 The Bingara horse, Battle, reduced his record to 2.15 1-4, when he won at Des Moines, Iowa
