BY j. ED GRILLO.

| DETROIT, July 22.-Connie Mack does
not propose to give any further help te
the contenders in the present pennan'
race. He has sold Eddie Collins and Ed
Murphy to the White Sox. and he sold
Jack Barry to the Boston Red Sox. III
1 have any other players that l want tc
get rid of neither Boston, Chicago MOI
Detroit can bid for them,.' said Mack this
morning to the writer. Il have done
enough to help these two teams and the
race is now going to finish with the
teams as they are so far as ] am con-
cerned. If I have any player left whom
do not intend to carry I will rid myself
Of him to one of the other clubs which
needs help, but not to one Of the con-
tenders"
Mack intimated he had not made up his
mind as to what disposition he eventually
would make of Frank Baker. He said
Baker chose his own course and that he
would have to do so in the future. Mack
did not deny he had lots Of offers for
Baker, all Of which he had turned down
because Baker is not on the market just
now.
Owner Comiskey Of the White Sox is
out with a TRADE on the American
League umpires, who. he says, are the
worst in the history of the game He is
particularly sore on O'Loughlin, and the
chances are that silks days IN tne
American League are numbered. Com1skey
says it Is absurd to have an umpire OF
the caliber of Hank O'Day sitting In the
stands, which probably means That an
effort is to be made to get Hank on the
American League staff.

CUBS MANAGER FINES
TWO Of HIS PLAYERS
Bresnahan Reads "Riot Act" and
Says Some Are Laying
Down on Him.

PHILADELPHIA, July 22.TManager
Bresnahan of the Cubs read the riot
act to his players after yesterdays de-
feat Bresnahan declares that some OF
his players are laying down on him.
and that In the future he will rule
with an iron hand. In defense of his
action for switching pitchers SO often
yesterday, Bresnahan declares his
pitching stan is not in shape, and that
some of the men have made no attempt
to get in condition.
He sent label home under suspension
and fined him 800 for breaking train
ing rules. He said he took label out
of the game yesterday because he
realized, after watching him work, that
his stamina was gone because of his
lack of condition.
Heine Zimmerman was also fined $25
because he failed to run out an infield
hit yesterday. President Thomas of
the Cubs says he approves of Bresna-
hans actions. and that he believes
Bresnahan was justified in making the
changes which brought SO much criti-
cism.

ball way as well as in every other.
Griffith has a new idea of how the
players in the American League should
be handled in the future. He contends
that there should be no sale of players
from one club to the other; that when
ever a club wants to get rid of
player it should notify the other seven
clubs of its intended move and the
player be chosen by lot and a figure fixed
by the rules paid for him. not to be
a high figure. either. Grifflth's idea is
still in the rough, but he intends to
get it smoothed out by the time winter
rolls around and then present 1t to the
league, with every reason for believing
that his scheme, or one similar to 1t,
will be adopted.

There seems to be considerable dis
pute over a decision of the umpire in
the Government League yesterday in
the contest between Bureau and Com
merce For failing to announce that a
player was batting in place of another
| the umpire called the batter out. A
protest was registered and upheld. II
the batter called out was batting out
of his turn in place of the proper
batsman then he undoubtedly was out
but II the batter who was called out
| was new man in the game, substi-
, tuted in place of another. then the de-
cision was incorrect; the only penalty
| for failure to announce the name OF
| a substitute player is a fine of SIS
which probably would not hold good
| in an amateur contest. A batter
who bats out Of his turn on whom a
play is made undoubtedly is out but
one who is substituted for anoher dur
| ing the course of the game is not out
| simply because the change has not

Contenders for pennants took part in
three contests in the amateur leagues
yesterday. st. Teresa, runner-up in the
race in the Potomac League, took the
long end of the score in ats contest
with Drillery without much trouble
Interior, one Of the two big factors in
the Departmental circuit all season,
won easily from War, and the game in
the government organization between
Bureau and Commerce will be played
over because of an alleged incorrect
decision made by the umpire.
st. Teresa outhit and generally out
played prillery. proving much the
stronger club After the third inning
there was not much to the contest, it
being apparent that 1t was only a ques-
ton of how many runs ST. Teresa
would score. War scored two runs in
the first period against Interiors, but
In the fourth the latter got in some
effective offensive work and seven
players crossed the plate. That not
being enough to suit, Interior scored
at least one run in each inning there
after. Bureau defeated Commerce in
the contest in the government circuit
by to 3, but the game will be played
over again, according to present ar
engagements. for the reason mentioned
in the foregoing paragraph.
st. Dominic's was a winner over St
Stephens by 10 to 4. The st. Dominic's
team batted the ball to all corners OF
the lot, to use rather hackneyed
phrase. considerably outhitting it's op.
ponent. Braund and Marsden were the
star clouters for st. Dominic's, the for
mer making five hits out of as many
attempts, and the latter getting four
out Of five trips to the plate J. Girard
and F. Girardi also used their sticks
very effectively, their total efforts al
bat combining for two hits for two
bases and four singles. McMurray
Burke and Cady also batted well for st
Stephens. each man driving the ball
into safe territory three times.
Naples and Nolan engaged in a splen.
did pitching duel in the game in the
morning league Of the Terminal Rail
not allow hit nor a run in the nine
innings, working about as perfect q
game Of ball as any amateur hurler has
this season. Nolan was also effective
striking out eleven men. Naples famed
ten.
The Rosedales bettered their lead If
the Rosedale League by taking the
measure of st. Paul, runner up, by 5 tt
!. Good pitching by Beall and consis.
tent hitting enabled the winners to gel
an early lead and hold it. Miller OF
the winners and Davidson of the losers

ing three hits and the latter two. Nc.
Carthy played a nice game at second
base for ST. Paul.

Kendall Myers. Lafayette's star first
baseman, probably is as good a hitter

The San Francisco Examiner gives the following account of the marriage of MT. John Poindexter Wishart of this city to Miss Hilda Winifred Walker:
 Friends of Miss Hilda Winifred Walk CT, talented violinist and vocalist were surprised yesterday when they learned she had eloped to Redwood City Septem- Der 9 and was married to John Poindex- ter Wishart, a business man of Brming- ham, Ala. They decided to keep their marriage secret The ceremony was performed by the Rev. c. H. Stevens.

 You see, while red-headed women ma look very meek,' Miss Richards contir ued, I've seen few who really are. Ir observed them all my life. When I wa growing up I had several little cousin with whom I went to school-lovell sweet, mild-mannered girls. all except tn red-headed one. She was a perfect ty rant, a virago, a termagent! High-tem pered, irritable. stern, dictatorial Oh! guess I learned my lesson from her.
 Tt used to be a theory that red headed, freck,ed-faced girl was her owl chaperon," I observed meelxly. ''That ] spelt ,homeliness in women; that men wer1 not attracted to that type"
 But rthe chicest girl today is the red headed girl,' Miss Richards corrected "A carroty head spells a fiery temporal ment, and that is especially desirable oi the stage. There is one thing about a ma falling in love with a red-headed girl When Sheriff Cupid shackles a man tl this type and really elects her as th; only girl 1t usually means a life sefl tence with no kind Warden William Mot Osborne to make things easy for hin; Like my own characterization of the redI headed girl in the play, she gives hin her orders so quick and fast that it would take an experienced Delmonico waiter td keep up with her. She cuts off his cigars. cuts out his cocktails, and looks as il she'd bite his nose off if he didn't obeJ every order she gives.

times it comes by way of sort of Zep- pe'in attack-just drops down on him without the man ever suspecting. That's the only way some of them can be caught. Although afterward when a nice bachelor has deteriorated into just an every day, ordinary, husband. maybe frightfully hen-pecked, miserable, and wretched like poor Fresh of the show, still every unmarried man alive is willing to renounce his bachelor paropaganda when the only girl appears
 She may be a red-headed girl, who knows,' Miss Richards smiled prettily. But heaven help the poor bachelor if that sort comes his way, for off goes his head, they'll tell you when a red-headed spittire gets him in her clutches
 But red-headed women have been among the greatest factors in history I observed. Thrones have trembled for them; dynasties have been wrecked; coun- tries have gone to war against each other, and all because of red-headed women."
 "Oh, yes; red hair has it's merits and it's attractions,'' Miss Richards answered. Cleopatra was a red-headed siren who swayed mems hearts as easily as the wind sways the leaves of the trees. Madame DuBarry was red headed, also one of the Catherines of Russia-yes, hs- tory gives us many striking examples. In modern life we have wonderful red headed actresses-Mrs. Leslie Carter,
