TE7at PrOyidcDCn Record.

The long Giant winning streak has brought back into prominence that Providence record made back in l2S4-a record of twenty straight. The most remarkab ble feature of this victorious span is that Charley Rad bourne pitched in eighteen of the twenty games.
 Radbourne started the spurt on August by beating New York, to 2. He rested the next day while Providence upset Philadelphia, to o. Then, on August 9, Radbourne re- sumed again, beating Boston, 1 to 0, to 1, to and 1 to 0. Radbourne then beat Cleveland, to ?, and De- troit, 4 to ?, resting for the last time oD August 20, when Providence again beat Detroit, to ?. From August 21 to September Rodbourne won every game.
 Here is the complete record-the most remarkable pitching achieve r?ent of all time-as figured out by George MOreland:

THE LAST SALUTE
Cruiser Boston Fires Last Salvo Be fore Being Thrown Into Scrap Heap Ship Was in Dewey's Fleet.

Portland, Ore, June 1.-The guns of the cruiser Boston sounded for the last time today when they fired a sa- lute to the cruiser Marblehead upon her arrival from San Francisco to be- come the training ship for the Ore gon Naval Militia.
 The Boston has been stationed here for several years. Her machinery long since went into disuse and now she is to be scrapped.
 The Boston was in Admiral Dewey's famous fleet at Manila and is said to have fired the first shot in the Battle of Manila Bay, opening on the Span iards by mistake before the Olympia did. When Admiral Dewey returned to the United States after the war he used the Boston as his flagship for the trip.

Giants Beat Bender.

Philadelphia, June 1.-Rube Ben- ton, veteran south paw of the Giants, pitched his club to Q to ? victory over the champion Phillies yester- day. Benton took the measure of AL fred Bender, the Chippewa chief who was always so troublesome against McGraW's men those years the two Macks fought it out for the worlds championship.
 It would be hard to say whether Bender has gone back since 1913 or the Giants have improved wonderfully in the meantime. It is quite true that the redslin hasn't gone far back, in any event. He didn't pitch so well as his southpaW but pitched well enough to make an interesting game against the very best that Rube Ben- ton could show.

Beyond All Competition.

Beyond All 1ON>pSuClOA.
 This record of Radbourne's is now beyond all competition. Certainly no pitcher will ever come again who can win eighteen straight games within less than a month. In these eighteen games the Providence star allowed but twenty eight runs, an average well under two runs to the game His most remarkable achieve m ent was holding Boston to one run in four games.
 The Providence club that season numbered, in addition to the mighty Radbourne, such players as Bancroft, Iovett, Farrell, Start, Daily, Irwin, Crane, Radford. Murray, Carroll, Denny, Bassett and Gilligan.
 The Chicago club that was over thrown four times in the Providence sweep had such stars as Anson, Pfeffer, Williamson, Burns, Dal- rynple, Kelly, Gore, Billy Sunday and Silver Flint-a wonderful or eanization. So there was no question about the class of teams that Rad bourne was beating-and that ProVl- dence was helping him to beat.
