Squirt OF THE
BOSTONBRAVES
IN new RECORD

NEW YORK, Sept. THE remark
able squirt OF the Boston National
League club which carried it from
last place to tie for first position
in a little more than a month estab-
lished new record in major league
baseball. While the Braves never Sc
riously threatened the record of con-
tinuous victories they won strings of
games ranging from four to seven
straight with seldom more than one
defeat breaking the sequence and as
result the climb from the National
league cellar to tie with the New
York Giants for first place on August
"a was extremely sensational.
1t is hard to fix the exact date upon
which the Braves first showed signs
of the rush that was destined to car.
ry them from the bottom to the top
of the league in less than six weeks,
On Monday, July 6, the club was in
last place, having won rs games and
lost 40 for a percentage of 1894. Phil
adelphia held seventh place with .467.
On that date the Braves started a
run of four victories and continued
with few defeats untik August "a. Dur
ing this period Boston met every 9TH
err club in the league except Philadel-
phia, winning 33 games; losing eight
and tieing one While playing at this
.8O5 clip the Braves scored 164 runs,
335 hits, made 81 errors and had 285
runners stranded on the bases. The
averages show that but 81 errors
were made per game and one run
scored for every two hits. The best
run of victories was made between
July q and August 6, when nine
games in a row were won from Chi
cago, st. Louis and Pittsburg. 1t is
also a peculiar coincident that these
same clubs, aided by Cincinnati, ac-
counted for the eight games lost by
the Braves, during the period under
consideration.
Nothing like this rally or rush has
heretofore been recorded in the an
nails Of the big league. The nearest
approach was the dash of the Chica.
90 White Sox in 1906, when under
the management of Fielder Jones, the
Chicago club by winning 10 straight
games lifted Itself from seventh to
first place in the American League
and later defeated the Chicago Ma
tionals in the worlds championship
series four games to two. Even this
run fell short of the record for the
major league figures were set at 20
games by the Providence Club of the
National League in 1884, and the min.
or league record of Is games made
by the Corsicana Club Of the Texas
League in 1902.

YANKS PIN FAITH TN
B0W-LEGGED MASCOT

Frank Chance has spent lot of
money to break the jinx hanging over
the Yankees. but he has finally hit
upon a scheme which he believes may
be just as effective as the usually &C.
cepted ways, and il has the big adj
vantage of entailing no expense. The
Yankees have brand new mascot.
Herbert Smith by name and bat boy
by occupation. "Herby. Is almost as
tiny as young Callahan, who does sim
liar service for the st. Louis Card
inals, and he Is more bow legged, vast.
ly so, as Callahan isn't the least bit
that way.
One day before the Yankees start
ed on the Western trip from which
they have Just returned ''Herby" nom.
mated himself to do the work of cart.
| ing the bats back to the bench. That
day the Yankees won. Th1y also
won the next time ''Herby'' acted as
bat boy. and the players began to sit
up and take notice. Winning games
became associated with bow-legged
Smith acting as bat boy, and "Herby''
landed the job as mascot forthwith.
The Yankees have tremendous faith
in him.
After Walter johnson had blown
wide open in the ninth inning of the
Yankees second game with Washing.
ton it was recognized that the help.
full influence of "Herby" had some
thing to 60 with it. But "Herby''
modestly disclaimed the honor. John.

Chinese 4, Hawaiis 2.
What started in as a most indiffer
ent and tiresome game came to life In
the eighth inning, when the fans were
all but ready to leave Athletic PARK
yesterday afternoon. For seven-ninths
OF the closing game of the regular
Sunday double header, baseball pa
irons watched the Chinese give a list
less exhibition of the national game
and apparently overlook several
chances to make things interesting
Then came one of those baseball
breaks that make the sport, and in a
1iffy the crowd was awake to the pos
sibilities Of the contest, and was re.
warded by a bang-up finish.
When the eighth inning opened, the
score was to 0 against the c. A. U's
one run having been scored in the
second, and one in the fourth by the
Hawaii crowd. The team vas appar.
emily asleep, and both time and op.
portunities were being wasted.
Kan Fat, first up in the eighth,
waited Williams out and went to first
on four bad ones. Then Kaf Luke at.
tempted a sacrifice, and was safe
when Eddie Fernandez dropped the
throw at first Cheong also laid down
a bunt which Fernandez ran in to
field, Williams crossing the bag, but
bungling the throw. This left the
sacks full and none disposed of. Lai
Tin came to bat with the crowd yell.

er to second which forced Cheong,
Kan Fat coming across. Kualii came
to bat. and while williams was trying
him out the speedy Lai Tin stole Sec
ond, and then proceeded to take such
lead of the bag that he scored on
Kualii's lift to left. The ball was field
ed to the plate, but Lai Tin was across
in plenty of time, Kualii going to sec
ond on the THROWN. Hoon XII famed,
and then zap laced out fine two bag
ger over his own sack, scoring Yen
Chin. who ran for Kualii. Two hits
and four rms for the chinese.
In the ninth 1t looked as though the
Chinese would pile up few more, for
with one gone Kan Fat again drew
a pass, followed by the same trans
portation for Kai Luke. Cheong hit
safely, filing the sacks. L.ai Tin hit
10 Chillingworth, who forced Kan Fat
at the plate, and Kualii also laid one
down to the shortstop, who tossed to

SCHOFIELD BARRACKKS, Sept. a.
The hard-hitting ball team of Com
pany E, 18th Infantry, put crimp in
the baseball aspirations of the Aiea
team yesterday afternoon, defeating
them by score of 10 to 1.
Aiea has been gathering in some
championship cups in the Plantation
League, and playing some good games
in the Riverside League, so that the
soldiers were expecting a hard game,
and had pitcher Waterhouse of the
regimental team, q corporal in Com
pany e, on tue bench ready to go on
the mound should the necessity arise.
Company e scored IL runs in the
first inning, knocking Soares out of
the box. Cabra who relieved Soares,
did some very good pitching, but the
game was hopelessly lost in the first
frame. Davis. who pitched for the sol.
diers, was too much Of problem for
Aiea to solve.
Sergeant Kenny, manager of the E
Company team is Of the opinion that
there are not many teams outside of
the Oahu League that can take the
measure Of his team, and is anxious to
schedule more games.

WOULD DEBATE ON
RIGHTS OF LABOR
Augustana League Suggests
Exemption From Anti
Trust Provisions.

Debating activities a. Augustana
college began with the meeting OF the
Augustana Debating league held las;
evening. At this meeting the league
decided to present the question, Re
solved, That the Labor Unions be EN-
empt From the Antitrust Law" to
the other two colleges in the triangle
for adoption as the question to be dis
cussed in the triangular debates this
year. The other two colleges in the
triangle are Illinois of Jacksonville
and Monmouth. The exemption of the
labor unions from the antitrust law
is one of the great questions of today.
Other questions to be submitted deal
with ship subsidies and the public
ownership of telegraph and telephone.
The question receiving the highest
vote from the three colleges in the
triangle will be discussed in the de-
bates.
Professor A. E. KeibeT, who coached
the Augustana teams last year, is
wanted again by the league, and if
the necessary funds can be secured
from the board of directors to pay for
the services of a coach, he will be
asked to take hold of the work again.

PROGRESSlVES APPEAL
TO COLLEGE STUDENTS

College men Of Augustana held
progressive mass meeting last even
ing opposite the college campus, and
listened to two local progressives.
Clinton J. Searle presented the plat
form of the party and appealed for the
progressive candidates. He asked for
the support of the college men on the
ground that the party stood for bet
ter government. a principal that has
always been upheld by college stu
dents.
Among other things said the pro-
gressive party stood for the initiative,
referendum, recall and a child labor
law and all social reforms. The curse
OF bi-partisanship has hindered the
successful passing of these measures
in this state heretofore. according to
the speaker.
Following Mr.. Searle's address, V. o.
Peterson, candidate for county clerk,
and a former Augustana college pro-
fessor. gave a fifteen minute speech.
After the meeting several of the col
lege students attended the progressive
rally at Turner hall in Moline.
