JOE BOEHLING HAMMERED
McCabe, St. Louis Recruit Pitcher,

JOE BOEHLING HAMMERED
BY J. ED GRILLo.

The Griffmen might as well have for
feited yesterdays game. for they would
have had just as much chance to win
and the score would not have been a
bit different, 9 to 0.
The game was over as soon as Joe
Boehling walked out on the rubber. If
there is any one pitcher easy for oppos-
ing teams it is Boehling, and the Browns
were not an exception to this rule.
They fell on Boehling with a vengeance
in the very opening inning, when they
hit him safely five times and scored
three runs.
Ayers relieved him and prevented the
Browns from scoring during the rest
Of his regime. which ended at the end
Of the sixth. Then Mayer essayed to
pitch, but. after walking a couple of
batters. Dumont broke into the game
and he was the victim of poor support
and a bunch of scratch hits.
\ young man named McCabe, who
halls from Decatur, H.. did the pitch
ing for the Browns. He held the Griff-
men to four scattered hits and pre-
vented them from scoring run. In
view Of the fact that the Nationals
did about everything that ball team
should not do, there is no necessity OF
going into details, SO look the score
over and feel satisfied that you have
missed nothing. The score:

AMATEURS RACE AT FAIR.
A. H. Seeger's Amasis Wins in
Wagon Event at Syracuse.

SYRACUSE, n. Y, September 1s.-
Three amateur and three professional
races made up the program of the clos
ing day of the Grand Circuit racing
at the state fair yesterday afternoon.
Although no records were broken,
there were several surprises, chief
among which was the victory of Lizzie
Brown in the 209 trot. Finishing sixth
in the first heat, Valentine took the
bay trotter out in front in the next
I; hree heats. and was never headed, al
though Murphy. with Mirthful, was a
contender all the way.
In the 2:1o race Queen Bess won in
straight heats. after finishing second
in the first heat. Jean and Ashlook
were the contenders. Ames AL Bingen,
cleverly piloted by Lon Mcdonald. won
the ZIG trot without trouble in straight
heats.
The three amateur races were keenly
contested, and with the exception of
the free-for-all trot, brought out good
fields.

PENNANT FOR BUFFALO.
Bisons Need to Win One Game to
Cinch International Flag.

NEW YORK, September 1S.-The Buff
falo club of the international League,
managed by Pat Donovan. moved closer
to the pennant yesterday by breaking
even in a double header with Jersey
City, while Providence dropped two
games to Toronto. The pennant race
has been one of the closest in several
seasons, and up to a week ago Provi-
dence, last years winner, looked as If
they would again capture the flag.
Buffalo, however, has been playing
the most consistent ball. while the
Providence club found the pace too
fast. When the two clubs met in the
crucial series of the season, early in
the week, Buffalo took the first game,
while the second resulted in a tie. This
placed Buffalo in the lead, and their
position was strengthened yesterday.
The season will close today. with both
of the leading teams playing double
headers. If Providence wins both
games with Toronto today and Buffalo
loses both games to Jersey City, Provi-
dence will again win the flag. However.
Buffalo stands an excellent chance OF
taking at least one OF the games to-
day with Jersey City, and this victory
will assure them of the pennant by a
small margin. 1t is seldom that the
race has been so close that the pennant
has not been decided until the last
game.

bright. having lost its greatest player
last year. Benfer, who has gone to

that Bucknell will get very comfort

Considerable interest is attached to

cause of the fact that Glenn Warner,
who has previously been held respon-
sible for their exceptional success on
the gridiron, has left to assume charge
Of foot ball at the University of Pitts
burgh- 1t is mooted question
whether the Indians will be able to
develop as strong elevens as when
under the iron hand of the former
Cornell man.
While there are no regular games
scheduled for the various college
elevens. it is fairly certain that there
will be staged short contests with the
scrub elevens in very nearly every foot
ball camp. The various teams have
Deen getting into fairly good shape de-
spite the exceptionally warm weather
and their work has been advancing
steadily despite the unfavorable con-
ditfons. In lieu of regularly scheduled
contests. probably four or five minute
periods will be played between the
varsity and second elevens under or
ders of the head coach, more to give
the instructors direct line on the
capab bilities of their men in real action
than anything else. Such work also
tends better than any other prelimi-
nary practice to get the men ready. as
a team. to meet representatives of
other institutions.

tience with a player who does not give
the team his best efforts. and move
which would send Boehling elsewhere
would be welcomed by the patrons of
the game here.
While Barney Dreyfuss has not made
any announcement to who will manage
his team next season, there is no doubt
that some sort of a decision already has
been reached. but in view of the fact tina
Fred Clarke still is in charge and that
his resignation does not take effect until
the end of the present season, his sue
cessor probably will not be publicly named
till then. 1t is h'nted that Hans Wagner
might get Clarke's place, but those who
know the "Flying Dutchman" inti-
mately aver that he would not shoulder
the responsibility of the management
What difference does it make whether
the Nationals finish third or fourth :?
There is, of course. some satisfaction in
finishing in the first division. and that
berth already has been cinched by the
Griffmen. That the team is not strong
enough to win a pennant has been dem
onstrated during the present season.
There Is no doubt that considerable
changes and Improvements must be
made before the team will be a real
contender This must be done by Sc
lecting players, to take the places of
some who have been here too long,
from the corps Of youngsters now here
and to report within the next few days
The best possible way to get a line on
these recruits is to play them during
the remainder of the season.

OPENING GRIDIRON CONTESTS
ARE BOOKED THIS AFTERNOON

in separate events with representative
of the Ariel Rowing Club of that city.
The races are to be the features of the
annual closed regatta of the Ariels.
The local organization will meet the
Ariel Club in an eight-oared event,
another race between four-oared gigs.
and in the final between four-oared
shells The events are expected to de-
velop some excellent competition.
though the Analostans are not in as
good shape as they might be.
Owing to the heat of yesterday there
was no real scrimmage at Georgetown
between the varsity and second foot
ball squads, but today it is almost as
sured that the two teams will line up
against each other for the hardest
workout of the year. The much cool
er weather is more conducive to stren-
uous gridiron practice and the IN
structors are certain to take advantage
of the conditions. The main practice
of Yesterday consisted of running down
under punts and in long drill In the
rudiments.
The second practice at Catholic Uni
versity was devoted to teaching quick
starts and developing speed in those
men who will be used in the line. The
work was elementary. Coach Nelson
laying stress upon the simplest parts
of the sport. The most gratifying eN-
hibition given in the workout was the
punting done by Butler, former Boston
College fullback, and Rodgers, who
starred at halfback last season. Both
men drove the ball down the field re-
peatedly for distances ranging from
forty to fifty sixty yards When the
worth of this kind of punting is con
sidered. especially in a close game. it is
easy to see that the Brooklanders have
right at their hands a splendid defensive
factor. Butler, Mckinney, Martin, Horn
and Condor are the men who reported
for their first workout yesterday. Horn
played guard last season, Mckinney
held down a halfback's position for
awhile, and Martin was a substitute
tackle. Condor and Butler are both
new men. each hailing from Boston.
The Georgetown Props are expecting
to begin their foot ball practice today.
John O'Reilly. physical director of the
university, will coach the team, and
with the impetus gained last fall is
figuring on having squad capable of
doing well in competition with the best
high and prep schools of the south.
A foot ball team has been organized
at the Washington barracks. and a
challenge is issued to any eleven in or
around the city. Those desiring to ar
range for contests should address Lieut.
Gillette at the barracks.

having shown so we'll yesterday, the

Shanks will be continued at second
base because Griffith still believes he
can play that position. Shanks did not
have much to do there yesterday but
he handled two little flies in short right
wei, and also handled one grounder
with ease and speed. but fumbled

Whether Manager Griffith will get a
chance to look over any of the several
players he is to get from Minneapolis
is decidedly doubtful 1t seems that
Cantillon has arranged a pos-season
series with the St. Paul club, which is
sure to finish second to the Mlilers IN
the race. and naturally he will want to
hold on to all his players in the hope
of winning the series from St Paul.
Griffith was particularly anxious to
have Charity, the hard hitting young
catcher. make his appearance here.
Branch Hickey believes in leaving
some questions of policy to his players.
This morning, for instance, he called
his charges together and asked them to
vote on the proposition of whether it
would be policy to put the strongest
team possible in the field and make
an effort to beat out New York. or
