Double PIars Save par.

The three double plays manufac-
tured by Harry Smiths help, were the
features of the pastime. The first one
was due TO the lively work of Young
Mack Wheat. Mack grabbed a bunt
fly In the first inning of the bat of
Purtel, and threw to Kraft, doubling
Deininger off the initial sack. Deit-
niger had opened with a clean hit to
left and this play pulled Schacht oct
of a hole. The second double play
came In the second inning. White
man walked and Flynn's method OF
sacrificing was to single. Then came
a sacrifice and a fielder's choice, en-
abling Whiteman to score. Tony
Smith, Of the Royals, drew a pass,
choking the ha-ssocks with one down
Miller hit to Move, who. with the aid
of Tooley and Kraft, turned it into

The Bill Bailey Stakes.

The Bill Bailey Stakes at one mile
is the big open event on the bill and
all of the professionals will start in
this race. After the six heats and
three semi-flnals are over the field
will have simmered down to three
riders who will meet in the final and
they should be the three best sprint
ers in the game. Just who the three
will be is more than anyone could
guess with so many we'll matched
stars starting. The one rider most
likely to make the final Is Kramer,
but even he might be shut out.

Biz Gear WIN meIp Moretti.

The fact that Moretti is a big gear
rider Is a point In his favor, for tho
speed may carry the rest of the stars
off their feet before the final sprint
AS the tandems can go clear to the
final lap, Moretti will be wound up
for a great finish and when he gets
his big gear under way he will take
lot of beating.

SCHACHT LEARNING
'POISE AND PAUSE
Al Picking Up Pitching Points
Rapidly and Becoming
Heady TwirIer.
NOTES OF THE GAME

No young pitcher in the Inter
national League has shown as much
Improvement during the past season
as Al sehacht. Al always carried
a fine line of stuff. but he was too
impulsive and erratic IN his delivery.
He pitched with his arm rather than
his head. He used to work too fast,
and he knew neither poise nor pause
under fire. Now he is beginning to
work with the GOODNESS and steadiness
Of veteran. He is getting the de-
ilberate, tantalizing way Of pitching
that worries a batter nearly to death
In a pinch. One more year and Al
should be one Of the best In the
league. Schacht says he Is going to
pitch in a worlds series before he
quits the game. He has excellent
prospects Of verifying the prediction,
IL he can keep up his recent good
work with the Tigers.
Manager Dan Howley. of the Mon
treal Royals. fears that Pitcher
couchman has injured his arm
permanently. He threw It out in a
recent game.
Frank J. Navln. owner Of the De-
troit Club, who tried to buy the Buff
faio franchise after disposing of
Providence, has called of negotiations
for the Bison stock.
1t is generally agreed around the
international League that the worst
thing for the organization Is foreign
ownership" When II comes to fight
ing for the rights of the league
against the majors, what chance does
the International stand with the big
leaguers sitting in the conelave.
Leo Callahan's long throw to the
plate in the last inning was the best
peg Of It's kind this season. Leo
threw from deep right centre and
nailed his man at first base. Ripper
nearly died from surprise.
Little Eddie Zimmerman stuck in
one Of his old-time pinch hits yester-
day. Result: Victory.
Ed comes from fighting stock. His
father was Civil War hero, and they
say he was some pinch hitter, too.
Ray Moves dazzling work at short
stop has the fans talking. Moves
eleven chances were all sizzlers. He
killed at least two hits which would
have been chalked against Schacht.

George Babe" Ruth, former Oriole

Grays' argument for the pennant.
Providence won yesterday and is
again knocking at the first place door.
The Grays are three points behind the
leaders.
Toronto threw a scare into the
Graye' camp by scoring four times in

NAVY FOR PHILADELPHIA

WEST POINT, N. Y, Aug. 19-The
problem of choosing a gridiron for
the 1914 football game between An
napolis and West Point may be left
in the hands of Secretaries Daniels
and Garrison, in the opinion of West
Point officials.
eWhile reluctant to discuss the mat
ter publicly, the athletic council here
Fas expressed little surprise that no
suitable field for staging the game
could be found in Washington, D. c.,
as announced. Army officials viewed
this latest turn as a vindication of
their stand that the Polo Ground is
the logical site on which to play the
FOOTBALL game between the school of
the two service branches.
West Point, tired Of the annual
haggling over a field, recently offer
ed Annapolis a proposition to choose
alternately a site which should be
north of New York and south of
Washington, giving the navy the
right to choose this year. The agree
ment was to cover ten years, but the
nayys approval was made contingent
upon its being able to make salts
factory arrangements for playing
the game In Washington This hav-
ing failed, the location of site in
so far as Annapolis is concerned ap-
pears as uncertain as ever.
Meanwhile the cadets are mobili-
zing their gridiron forces and will be-
gin active practice two weeks from
today.

CONWAY ADOPTS
DOUBLE PRIMARY
To Use This Means to Select the
Nominees For All Municipal
Officers

Conway, Jan. 1.-An innovation
was introduced in local municipal
,Cliiics last night when the City
Democratic Central COMMITTEES, by a
vote of 5 to 2, decided upon the
double primary or "run-otf," as a
means of selecting nominees for all
municipal offices, requiring the sue
cessiul candidate to receive a major
ity instead Of plurality vote. March
8 was selected as the date for the
first primary and the "run-off." if
one Is found necessary will be held
March II.
The double primary system has
never before been put into effect in
this county. Under the provisions
of the resolution adopted by the COM
mi,tee, where there are more than
two candidate for any office, if none
of tie candidates receive {. majority,
Vi more than half, of all the votes
cast fer that office, the two receiv-
ing the highest number of votes shall
he voted upon again at the second
primary. OF course,if any candidates
receives a majority at the first pri-
mary where there are only two can
didate for that office, it will not be
voted upon at the second primary
ia: the candidate receiving the
majority will be certified as the
c0minpn
