WHEAT's HOMER KILLS A FAN.
Brooklyn Florist Drops Dead a,
 Ninth Inning WaIIop.

Brooklyn, June 2.--Loyalty to the Brooklyn baseball team and the dra- matic circumstances that surrounded Zach Wheat's home run drive over the fence in the ninth inning of yester- Gays game proved fatal for Chaun- cey Martin, florist of Brooklyn, liv- ing at 2S4 Graham avenue. He dropped dead of heart failure while cheering the prowess or the Robins left fielder.
 Martin had been among the most excited of all the 10000 people in the stands. during the whole game. When Wheat came to bat in the ninth, with the score to 3 against the Brooklyn team and two out--and two strikes on the batter--and then tied the score and made victory possible, Mar tin climbed into his seat and began to wave his arms. Tn the midst of it he dropped to the ground. Dr. Reeve of the Swedish hospital pronounced him dead.s

 The alert citizen who figures he has a sure answer to either the National or American League flag episodes IS merely indulging himself in the lux ury of a guess.

 In the National League, after seven weeks of warfare, not a club as pre- ,sented enough class to be labelled as a fairly certain entry into the hall of gonfalonicl fame. McGraw, who is about as keen an observer as observers get to be, doesn't figure either Cubs or Phillies as first class machines yet they have been leading the parade. No one knows what the bally Braves intend to do, for they are m the main psychological development rather than a physical one, and then operations of psychology are not to be roped and branded in advance.
 First Division.
 About all one can do at this stage is to launch guess as to the first, division tenants. Offand for the Na- tional League we should say the four hest bets are Boston. Chicago, New York and Philadelphia, with Brooklyn close around.
 Tn the American league the first four should include Chicago, Detroit, Boston and New York--for we doubt whether even the unparagoned MT.
