cism made OF artists comparable TO Mclba and
Caruso.
Both these singers, by the way, are said by
some critics to have their voices naturally placed
right" They sing as if singing JOY to them,
spontaneous outpouring of sound like the sing
ing OF birds. Melbas voice is like limpid stream;
Caruso's singing is torrent OF delicious, emo
tional sound.
1t is known that Meba gives great credit to
her teacher of singing. Nine. Marches Caruso
declares that he owes all his art to himself that
he has been his own teacher.
The chances are that the critics are right in
saying that both these artists have always sung
correctly by instinct. And they were both for
tunatc in not falling under the influence of teach
ers who would draw them from their natural
methods into ways OF singing that would tend to
misplace the voice.

in thrilling plays, it was loosely
played contest, in which the offensive
strength of both teams overshadoWeo
their defensive work. None OF the
pitchers in the fifth game, Foster IN
cluded were able to hold the batters
in check Broadly speaking, 1t was
a battle between the batters and the
outfielders in which the former had
eraI sharp plays by the infields and
some great catches by the outfielders,
but much of the hitting was so savage
that the outfielders had little chance
to do more than retrieve the ball.
Four home runs, one triple and one
double is excessive hitting at any time,
but when such a combination is un-
covered in the winning game OF
worlds series, the climax in heavy nit
ting is reached
The ascendancy of the batter over
the pitcher in this contest is best illus
trated by comparison OF roster s
record in the second and fifth games,
both of which were won by the Reo
Sox. In the first victory for Foster,
but three hits and one run were made
by the PhiIlies. He struck out eight
batters and passed none: In the last
game, Foster had nine hits and four
runs scored off his delivery, gave two
passes, and famed but fiveastarters.
Mayer Off Form.
Mayer. who opened for the Nation
ais. had little to BATTLE the Red Sox
batters, and they laced into his wide
sweeping curves for six hits In TWO
and a fraction innings, in Whlch ne
pitched All the Boston sWlngerS
crowded the plate and waited for GOOD
ones.
With Rixey in the box, his awkward
service for a time seemed to puzzle the
Boston Sox but once they got the
angle of his slants he proved no more
effective than Mayer. That the two
teams stood up Sc. well IN the Ilelo
under this bombardment of hits dem
onstrated the earnestnesS with which
the play was fought out.
While Hooper was the hero OF the
game with his two home runs, the
second in the ninth inning breaking
the tie and winning the championship,
Lewis did deadly work with his bat
during the series. In eighteen times
at the plate he made eight hits. Eos
ter with four hits in eight times at
bat, got a 800 average, while Luderus
made seven in sixteen trips to the
plate. Speaker drove out five nlts IN
seventeen chances; Hoblitzel five IN
sixteen; Hooper seven in twenty; BAN
croft five and Gardner four in seven
teen times at bat, and Paskert three IN
eighteen: Cravath, the home run king
| of the Nationals made but two hits in
fourteen times at bat.
Hooper Scored Most Runs.
Hooper took first place in the run
scoring, having four to his credit, two
of which were homers made in We'd
