veloped, trained and drove to victory
The prize was the largest vet offered
by the American Association of Trotting
Horse Breeders. under the auspices of
which organization the race was ar
ranged. The winner received $685.. so,
and the total stakes were s1O,435
The race was closely contested in both
heats. but the track was SO slow that the
colts could not trot within three or four
seconds of their real capacity. Rusticoat,
the colt that would have started favorite
had there been bookmaking or pool sell

time of the heats: 2:11, 2:12k.

pitchers, dragged him in. Since then
Toney has been the most consistent win
ner of any of the old league twirlers and
he added to his laurels yesterday by let
ting the Braves down with single hit
and shutting them out.
Most base ball men seem to be under
the impression that the Braves Will win
the pennant again this year. They
argue that the Stallings' team is a bet
ter road team than either the Phillies
Or Dodgers, and that the next western
trip will prove this to such an extent
that there will he great change in
the standing, with the Braves leading
the procession when they return to
their grounds. 1t is, of course, true
hind. If they can make better show
ing when they go west than either of
the teams that are now leading them,
they should have no trouble overcom-
ing the disadvantage they are now la
boring under. Both Moran's team and
that of Robinson are said to lack con-
ddence in themselves. and if that is

series from Philadelphia yesterday, 6
to 5, thereby cutting down the latter's
lead in the pennant race.
The Giants won the game with a
four-run rally in the eighth inning,
when they knocked McQuillen out of
the box. Merkle was purposely passed,
but Fletcher drove in the winning run
with a sacrifice fly.

Baker would undoubtedly do this. and
the Yankees might in due tine become
real contenders in the championship
races of the American League, which
would be of great financial help to the
entire league. There is no getting ava Y
from the fact that a league under pres
ent conditions must try to make the
eight clubs in it's circuit as near even
in the matter of strength as possible.
SO as to make the championship race
interesting and naturally profita BILE.
There is no manipulation in the sug-
gested deal which is hoped to land Baker
in New York. Baker refused to play with
Mack. and will likely jump to the Feds
unless some sort of deal is made
which will keep him in organized base
ball, and New York is probably in a
better position to buy Baker than any
of the other clubs in the circuit which
are in need of strengthening.
1t would not require a great many
changes to make New York a formi-
believing that two or three capable
youngsters have been added by the
club who have yet to report, and with
Baker to do the cleanup work with
to tell of the Yankees in the next cam
paign.
One of the players who will join the
team this fall is Gilhooly, the Buffalo
outf1elder. and conceded to be by far
the best ball player in the International
League. If he comes up to expecta-
lions it will help the Yankees more
than a little. for the present outfield
is not strong enough to be of help to
an ambitious team. 1t is not unlikely
that Fritz Maisel will be shifted to the
outf1eld, if he is compelled to give up
his position at third to Baker
1t secms that the three players which
the Baltimore Fed club released recently
had the ten days release clause stricken
out Of their contracts, which, in every in
stance, had another year to run. These
players were Chief Bender, Swacina and
Jacklitsch. While none of them has made
any statements for publication, it is I'M
derstood that they will band together and
bring suit against the Baltimore club for
salary they claim is due on their con-
tracts. They have been assured that they
can obtain judgment.

A FeaV of the VeGi1,g Questions
About the Etiquette of Mar
riage Expenses Answered.
Costumes, Motors, Invita-
tiOnS, Etc.

Who pays for what when a wedding Is
in tho air? Does the bride, or her father,
have to look after the vehicles which con-
vey the bridal party to the church door.
or is this a part of the bridegroom ex-
penses? And how about the church
music and decorations? To whose account
arc they charged?
Also, what does the bridegroom wear II
the wedding is before in the evening and
what If IL Is after? How does the bridal
party form?
These are n few OF the veXinE ques-
tions that arise every June, Many a
bride has run around distractedly trylns
10 get the formidable etiquette straight
ened out so that things would run
smoothly at the biggest moment of her
life. The prospective bridegroom is in
bissful ignorance of all such matters,
usually expecting his tancee to coach
him at the last minute.
To begin with the question OF wedding
expenses. a cynical authority OF the mas
culine persuasion phrases the formula IN
this wise: She. or her father, pays for
everything preceding the ceremony and
he pays forever afterward.
This is a good rule to go by, but like all
good rules 1t has its exception. The
ceding the ceremony, excepting the bou-
uuets These the bridegroom must fur
nish. One for the bride one for each OF
her attendants one for her mother and
one for hs-an order OF some magnitude,
however you figure II out Likewise the
bride provides the boutOnleres for the
bridegroom, his best man and the ushers.
To go into full details, the brides fam
lily has been expected from time tmme-
mortal to provide the engraved invitations
which herald the guests to the church.
and also for the linens for the new home.
Next the motors or carriages which
convey the palpitating bride and her
party to the church are part OF the eX-
penses charged to the brides side OF the
house. Add to this the cost of the church
decorations, the organist's and singers
remuneration and the warden's fee. Add
again. the cost of the gifts TO the brides
maids ana the collation. which follows
the marriage and you have the expenses

The bridegroom, for his part, in addi-
tion to the bridal bouquets, pays, OF
course, the minister's fee, which is sell
dom less than $40. That lets him OUT
