& Il " The Athletic Machine.

"How long will the Athletic ma chine last?" asks fan who adds: "The Cub machine went to smash years, and the Cubs of 1910 looked just as powerful and just as enduring as theAthletic look today"
 They looked it-but they weren't. The Cub machine when it ended the 1910 season was a somewhat battered machine-battered by age the stiffen- ing and the decline that comes son ner Or latter in every aggregation of athletes.
 The Athletics today, excluding Plank and Bender, avrage about five years younger per man than did the 1910 Cubs. McInnes is just above the voting age, Collins, Baker and Barry are not very far along in their twen- ties. Schang the regular catcher, is about 21. The outfield is composed mostly of kids and the Athletic pitch ing staff averages we'll under p with Bender and Plank excepted.
 As for those two veteran twirlers- one nearing 40 the other around 36- we'll they look good for about four years more at least Perhaps the added years suddenly make their presence felt, and soon rob them both of their power to baffle the big league batter, but their 1914 showings give no such indication. Recently figures on American league pitching showed Bender leading the league, only a few points fro mthe 300 mark, with Eddie Plank in second place just a few points in the rear of tie Indian.
 The Athletics, as team, rank to- day as a more evenly balanced one than the Cubs in their palmiest lays. Every man that Connie Mack plays regularly is finished player-one of the shining stars in his own position. And, with these qualities and with youth in it's favor. it doesn't seem any exaggeration to say that the Athletic machine will last four or five years longer.

W|LbERT DOESN'T
 TRUST M'GRAW NOW
John Advised Robinson Not to Claim O'Toole, Then
 Grabbed Pitcher.
(By Frank q. Menke)

New York, Sept. 16.-Wilbert Rob. inson. the portly person who manages the Brooklyn Dodgers, is trying tC figure out whether John McGraW slipped something over on him relat- i've to Marty" O"roole, the $22,5 ,5Oc pitcher.
 About a month ago when word reached Robinson that Barney Drey- fus was going to ask waivers On O'Toole the Dodger boss remarked to McGraw that "l guess I'll put bid in for that fellpw."
 "Doncha do it'' said John to Will bur. His elbow is gone"
 Wilbert believed John-and he spurned the chance to get the pitcher The next thing Wilbert knew, how ever, was that John McGraw had slipped into Pittsburgh and slipped right out again with O'Toole in tow. Worse than that, John set O'Toole onto the Dodgers in OToole's firts start in Giant uniform and O'Toole gave the Dodgers a beating.
 Naturally Wilbur is much puzzled. For a large flock of years Wilbert acted as Johns understudy in those dear old Giant days. Wilbert grew to know John as truthful man, He trusted him like a child trusts fond and doting parent. In Wilbert'S eyes John was all right. Even after Will bert cast his Giant Uniform aside and donned the togs of the Dodgers he loved and revered John in the same old way.
 But now Wilbert is wondering. Has John taken a sudden turn for the worse? Did he Intentionally double cross an old pal by steering that pal away from the chance to grab a pitcher at a bargain price so that he could grab him unto himself? Or was it done accidentally, or did John mean that the left elbow of the right-hand- ed O'Toole was gone?
