All the warning kingdoms and all their

Colonel T. Raymond Cobb and other
Tigers still insist that the Red Sox
arc much more to be feared than the
White Sox. It seems TO be much
easier to scott at the White Sox than
it is to beat them.
Too Soon Yet.
Personally. and impersonally. our
opinion on the subject is still vague.
We have looked right along for a
grand driving finish into the Septem-
and Tigers well bunched-and the
club drawing the breaks carded to
win. Having better pitching for a de-
tensive foundation, the two Sexes have
something on the Tigers-and having
. fair edge now the White Sox have
the advantage of a healthy start on
the Red. But no one of these three
clubs yet has shown any conclusive
advantage over the other two.
Beyond the Hundred Mark.
The season isn't half completed yet.
hut Cobb has already passed the fifty
mark in stolen bases. Ty is now
thirty seven bases back of Milan's
record Of eighty eight steals. At any
rate he is noving-and has been NOV
ing since April 14-Ty will beat the
100 mark, with something to spare
& Back in the old days 100 steals
were nothing out of the ordinary.
But the ball player who can steal 100
bases under the modern regime is a
marvel beyond all computing--when
it is remem bered that no one in
fifteen years has stolen 80 bases and
that only the elect pass fifty.
Evers and Fate.
4 4 4# 4 s I Rs II .4li i Y i.
Johnny Evers has received more
than his share from adverse Fate. He
has drawn more than double wallop
from unkempt Fortune. But he has
held his head up under blows that
would have overwhelmed an ordinary
mortal
So here's hoping that upon his re-
entry Fate gives the game Trojan at
least an even break, with something to
spare. For the best luck there is
wouldn't be any too good for the Re-
ncwned Crab.
Cornel1's Return.
Cornell was about due to resume her
old place in front at Poughkeepsie.
She had won 13 out of the 20 races
rowed before this last, and at no time
had three years ever passed without a
Cornell victory. Syracuse won in

For the Drive Again.
The confidence felt by the Braves up
+, through June is no longer apparent.
The double blow dealt by the Giants
convinced them at last that only a
smashing drive the rest of the way
would put them back in front. For
they realize now that there will be far
l9keener competition after July Fourth,
la.915. than they met brief summer
Il ago. when the National league form
collapsed.
& Ordinarily few would figure the
braves now if it were not for remem-
ahrance of that 1914 finish. So most
snon-combatants are looking for the
old drive again, now that Stallings'
club knows the size of the big Job that
waits ahead In place of being almost
sure winners. as they seemed to be
in April, the Braves are upon the
edge of requiring another miracle.
Whether they can ambuscade and cap
ture two miracles in succession is an
ether guess.

spect to finish in the second division,
but he believes now with his pitching

chance to win his sixth flag

E. H. Tays, father Of the murdered
man.
According to the letter, dated Sept.

Indian teamsters. They were met by
500 Yaquis and made prisoners. They
were forced to march, naked and afoot.
five miles across the desert to the

thrusts Of cooked revolvers at their
sides. All the while the Indians dangled
full canteens before their famished
captives.
