BY WILLIAM PEE'r.

That Clyde Milan, the Nationals great
outfielder will no bet able to play ball
again until about September l, is the
opinion of a well known local surgeon
dentist.
On Friday, July II, Milan and Danny
Moeller cOllided while chasing after a
fly ball Moeller's knee came in contast
with Milan's jaw with a result that
Clyde's jaw was broken in two places.
1t required first an X-ray photograph
to disclose the nature of the injury. and
then the services of a surgeon who
brought the fractures together with
German silver wire.
At present Milan is taking things easy.
He cannot eat solid food neither can he
laugh or cry, for the simple reason that
he is unable to move his lower jaw.
1t was given out that Milan would be
able to play ball again when the Ma
tionals returned from the present trip,
or to be exact on Tuesday, August Is.
From present accounts the wires can
not be removed for six weeks, and then
1t Is expected that a week or more will
be required before the athlete can get
into condition to again don the spangles.
In the meanwhile Griffith is lucky to
have picked up such a good man as Mike
Mitchell, who seems to be filling in nice
ly.
A chance to keep stride with the Bos-
ton Red ,Sox and Connie Mack's Ath-
letics was missed by the Griffmen yes
terday when Jennings Tigers grabbed a

special to The Washington Herald.
Detroit, Mich, July 30-Jennings' Tigers
won the second game OF the Washington
series after ten innings OF exciting play
tins afternoon. The score was TO 2.
Ray MoFgan's attempt to strike Um-
plre Jack Sheridan, and the act OF Ain
smith in jumping into a box and mixing
things with a SPECTATOR, make IL certain
that President Ban Johnson will suspend
both OF these athletes.
Morgan's offense is the worst. and II is
likely to go hard with him. This is the
first time since he has been in the Ameri-
can League that Morgan has ever lost
his temper or been put out of a ball
game by an umpire. He has always
been rated as one Of the cleanest players
In the circuit
The game itself was a contest between
wild pitchers. with Coveleskie having the
edge on his rivals, Harper and Shaw.
The Nationals started on with two
runs in the first frame Moeller and
Foster walked. Mitchell sacrificed and
Moeller and Foster scored on Bush S
tumble of Shanks grounder on which
the center fielder went to second. That
ended 1t for the Nationals, as Coveleskie
frightened up and pitched unbeatable ball
for the remainder OF the game, getting
a total of IL strike-outs, and allowing but
three more passes.
The Tigers tied IT up in the third in
ming. Ainsmith dropped the third strike
on Coveleskie to start the inning and
the big Pole was safe when the catch
cr's throw hit him in the back. Bush
walked. but 'Covie" was caught on
second Ainsmith TO Mcbride. Moriarity
singled to left. Heilman flied to Mitchell
Crawford's triple TO right scored both
men. Veach flied to Moeller TO end the
inning and Sam was left
Shaw started the fourth and from then
on until the tenth was not scored on,
although he passed six men. He was
touched for but two hits, both OF them
doubles. Poor base running was re-
sponsible for the loss of one Of them

'look-in' for the pennant. And right
here be it said that the pennant bee is
still buzzing in the bonnets of Grin 5
young men.
The difference between baseball and
football is in the scoring of boot
Well, it's clmost time that some one
came to the front and soaked John Nc
Graw from behind.
Ever since Vean Gregg was traded to
the Red SOx a report has been circu-
lation that Napoleon Lajoie. the veteran
second sacker, will be the next to go.
1t is believed that Larry has Outlived
his usefulness as a Nap. as his .25 bat
ting average would indicate. and 1t is
persistently rumored that Frank Chance
would like to have the Frenchman for
the New York Highlanders.
Larry would undoubtedly prove a great
drawing card in New York. The chances
are he would be invaluable to Chance,
as he would play either first or second,
and it is likely he would soon be hitting
in his old time form, II a change in
scenery has any beneficial results con-
nected with it, and they say that it has.
Neither the Cleveland officials, Chance
nor Lajoie will discuss the possibility
of a deal getting through, but 1t wouldn'
be surprising II Larry were bedecked
in Highlanders' toggery before very long.
Says a contemporary: I'VE have reach-
ed the conclusion that the only difference
between golf and work is that you get
paid for work.
II you don't take golf seriously every
body hates you, and IL you do take 1t
seriously you hate yourself. So there you

a double header to the Yanks. to in

staged a pitchers battle in the first game.

NOTES OF THE GAME.

1t looked from the press stands as
though Morgan was safe on the play
which precipitated the attack on Sheri-
dan. The ump was. however. warranted
in striking the player. as the second
baseman launched a terrific blow at tbs
arbiter to start the big fuss.
After Ainsmith and Morgan were can
ned" Williams went behind the bat
Shanks moved up to second base and
Acosta went into center field. Shanks
was the only man to accept chance,
and he played Heilman's pop fly per-
fectly.
Ainsmith dropped the third strike on
Coveleskie in the third. and the ball
rolled back against the grand stand His
throw hit the big Pole in the back.
The squeeze went wrong in the
fourth. when. with Mcbride up. Morgan
was caught of third and run down.
Baker to Moriarity to Coveleskie IL
Moriarity.
Williams pegged the third hit of Cove
leskie, banging out a single on his only
appearance at the plate.
Nick Altrock was the greatest factor
in jollying the crowd into good nature
after the rumpus in the ninth. Nick
staged a prize fight all of his own on the
sidelines. He feinted. jabbed, and count
cred, and went to the mat three times
The fans had SO much fun watching
Nick's antics that they forgot the Crouch
they held because of the events OF the
preceding innings.

PROPER FEEDING OF TREE
Gardeners Should Understand just
How Much Srstenance II Is
Necessary to Supply.

Every gardener knows that a tree
can be fed and made to grow with in
creased vigor. If proper nourishment
in the form of humus. nitrogen, phos-
phate, etc, be placed about its roots
the tree will absorb this food and grow
rapidly and strongly.
But how the tree feeds is somewhat
more difficult to explain In all prob
ability the tree digests its food first
and consumes it afterward Certain it
is that the average tree has no means
Of consuming food as a whole, as mem
bers of the animal kingdom absorb it.
It is well known that the larvae of
certain insects digest their food first
and consume it afterward. Observation
would indicate that this Is exactly
what the tree does. The tiny rootlets
act on the substances in the earth,
dissofying and breaking them up so
they can be absorbed through the root
pores. In order so to be taken up the
