THREE AND TWO
Each Team Wins a Game in the Crucial Three-Games
Series for the Pennant-"Sockess" Shaw Is
the Wanderers" Last Hope
By CHARLES E. VAN LOAN
The WORLDS Most Famous Writer Of Baseball Fiction

ravenllke tones implored the Dummies

Now, there was one thing about the
old Wanderers, or any team which had
Smiling Tim" Payne for a manager:
they would not quit. Payne was a fighter
who knew how 20 come from behind
and the first Of the ninth opened with
Smiling Tim out on the coaching line
making a great demonstration in the
teeth OF the hostile hordes upon the
b1eachers.
Bill seaton, shortstop for the Wan
derers. was the FIRST man up. Bill had
not made hit In the series. which made
him desperate enough to mash the very
first ball over into left field for a single
Payne, OF course. went after the tying
run; and Pemberton. the red moose afore-
mentioned. shortened his grip on the bat
and chopped a pretty bunt between Cas-
sell and Streak Fowler on third. Streak
made a pretty play on the ball and
caught Pemberton stride from hrst
but Seaton was resting on second which
was just where Payne wanted him.
Payne then yanked Howell out In
order to allow Mellin to hit for him; and
naturally Mellin did what emergency hit
ters have been doing since 1s7s-he struck
out, and the bleaoherites began to croak
again. For a moment they were badly
men down. Some OF the more timid OBJ
served that Bill Seaton was still an
chored on second base. and the heavy
end OF the Wanderer batting order COM

man at bat-leader in the batting order,
and tough man TO pitch to in an emer-

gave three cheers all by himself.

gave the rooters a nervous two minutes,
winding up with a chill when he filled
the stations with a fiuky grounder to-
ward first base. Cassell should have
covered first to take the toss, but he
was late, and when Judge Nagle
scooped the ball, there was nowhere TO
throw IT, and Smiling Tim was splitting
the atmosphere with loud yells:
"Oh! Look who's here! Look who's
here! This is the poy, Casselll Here's
the boy thatll hit it over the fence

PAT MORAN SEES
BRAND NEW PLAY
IN PITTSBURGH
Eddie Burns, by Quick
Thinking, Pulls a King
Trick at the Expense
of Wagner
FROM PILLS TRENCHES
Ru a stan Correspondent

CINCINNATI, Sept. 16. one would
think that, with all his years OF expert
ence, there could not be a play In base
ball that Pat Moran had not seen. Yet
one came up in the second game with
Pittsburgh which Pat says he not only
had not seen but had never heard or be-
fore The play was the one In the fourth
inning of that battle which took Alex
ander 13 innings TO win from young Will
bur Cooper.
One man was down, one run had been
scored and the bags were full when this
remarkable play came up. Baird hit a
terrific drive, which Alex knocked down.
He Immediately threw to the plate,
forcing Hinchman. then Eddie Burns
turned to throw to first base to double
Baird. But Alex had been a little slow
in fielding the ball, which had bounded
off his glove, and this fact, coupled with
the fear that he might hit Baird as he
was running down the line, caused Burns
to take a look around the bases. He
saw in a flash that Wagner misjudged
the situation, hence he threw to third
and forced Hans, who had, in the first
place, thought Alex had caught Baird's
liner.
Since baseball has been put on a scien-
tific basis, players are taught that the
best and safest way to make double
play with tho bags full is to shoot the
ball home, then have the catcher throw
to first. But by using his brain, Burns
saw that this was not the play to make,
and no correctly diagnosed a situation
which, so far as any one knows, has
never come up in baseball before.
Barney Dreyfus asked waivers on
Clarke in order that he might allow his
manager TO retire from baseball a free
agent It will be remembered that the
national commission granted certain re-
quests of the baseball players fraternity,
one of which stipulated that IL a major
league player had been with a club 10
years he had the right to demand and
to get his unconditional release.
In the face of this, the same old red
tape has to be gone through with, which
shows what the demands of Dave Fultz's
organization amount to in the eyes of
the baseball solons.
number of times visitors have come
10 the Phillies' hotel to see some of the
players on several occasions these visi-
tors have begun talking of the Phils'
chances in the worlds series. If Pat
Moran happened to be there, he immedi-
ately tried to hush up the series talk, and
If he were unable to do 1t, he would
leave the company.
Pat absolutely refuses to say anything
about the pennant and he does not want
any one to speak of ii in his presence
He still holds to his old idea that the
team is just playing for every ball game
and that advance dope on pennants and
worlds series is bad for the chances of
contending club.

These teams had been nagging each
other game or so apart for two weeks {;
and, as sometimes happens-would that
II could happen oftener outside of base
ball fction-the contest narrowed down
TO one game, the third of a series in
which each team had suffered defeat.
Naturally, the noblest Romans on the
pay roll were hurled into the breach.
Cassell, the best OF the seasons pitching
finds. and a sort of human iceberg, was
sent into the box for the Dummies, with
Gabby Nelligan behind the wind pad.
Cassell was chosen because he had al
ways been able to make a good showing
when opposed to the Wanderers having
won five out of tho seven games he
pitched against them. He had a nasty
drop bali, which seemed to die in the air
for nc reason whatever, and when a bat
ter went after It, as a usual thing he
disturbed the air some inches above the
dropping sphere.

GAS NOT UNSANITARY

The idea which prevails generally that electricitty as an nluminant is superior to gas for sanitary reasons seems to have been disproved to a great degree by the experiments con ducted by Dr. K.

In a room of fifty-seven cubic meters capacity with artificial ventilation the number of bacteria in a unit volume of air decreased 24 per cent in one hour. Under similar conditions, but with three large gas flames burning. the number decreased u per cent in the same period.
