REEL 1.-Benjamin Kauff, an indus
trious but egotistical coal miner, Is
following his humble but useful voca-
ton in a Pennsylvania mine. BIZ
Fink, tyrannical foreman. calls down
BENJAMIN at the end Of the days
work because Bennie's car contains
only large Jumps Of coal.
where are the little lumps! de-
mands the foreman.
81 fouled 'em off," said Bonnie.
1.-THE little ones are no good"
"You are canned" said the cruel
foreman. "Come up and get your
time"
"Very WELL says Bonnie haughtily.
"Let the miners with no ambition go
after the little hunks of soft coal.
But Benjamin Kauif will mine nothing
but big chunks Of anthracite
The cruel foreman boots Bonnie
through the entrance of the shalt
The other miners pelt him with soft
coal as he hurres eastward.
REEL 2.-Wearied and footsore
Bonnie Kauff, the young coal miner,
halts to rest at the village ball park
near Cohoes. The Cohoes Corkers are
playing the Mechanicville Marvels. II
is the ninth inning, the score is tied
and the Corkers are at bat with two
out.
"Oh, for a pinch hitter!" means Mutt
Mulligan, captain of the Corkers, as
Amos Aimless, the weakest hitter OF
the Corkers, is advancing to bat.
At this juncture Bonnie approaches
the captain of the Corkers. 81 am
but a poor miner, sir" he says. "But
] have ambition. If you let me take
Just one swipe at that little leather
thing | feel sure that | could knock it
out Of the county"
Mutt Mulligan looks contemptuously
at the coal-grimed overalls of our
hero, but he notices the fearless look
in Bennie's eyes. Go on, then" he
says. Put it out of the lot"
Bonnie takes his old pick handle
out of his bag and poises it dexter
ously. With a sneer the pitcher of
the Marvels shoots one straight over.
The pick handle meets the ball right
on the beak. II scars on about twelve
hundred yards into the river. Cohoes
Corkers win in the ninth. Mutt Multi
gan grasps the hand Of our hero.
Huh, that's nothing" says Bonnie.

Champions Increase Lead-First
Game Goes to Sixteen
Innings.

Boston, Aug. 16.-The Red Sox in
creased their lead in the pennant race
to-day by winning two hard fought bat
ties with Chicago. The first went SIX
teen innings to a score of to 4. The
second game was called after five and
a half innings on account of darkness
with the score 2 TO /.
Every able member of the Red Sox
team, with the exception of Carrigan
and Gregg, was pressed into service
for the first game, either as pinch hit
tiers, runners or felders. 1t was a
gruelling contest throughout, and was
marked by numerous sensational plays,
Weaver, Eddie Collins. Scott, Walker,
Barry and Gardner figuring most prom
inently.
In this game Chicago obtained six
teen hits off three Boston pitchers,
against eleven for the Red Sox, but the
Boston blows were more timely and
less scattered. In the sixteenth inning
Hooper was passed after two men we're
down. He stole second and scored
when McMullen made bad throw to
first on Barry's grounder.
The attendance was over $4,000, the
largest of the season. Between the
games the worlds championship PEN
nant was raised with the customary
ceremonies.

Boisterous Benny, the Boy Miner

sign a contract TO play outfielder with
the Futile Baseball League.
"Before [ sign" says Bonnie, i
want it distinctly understood that l
am not expected to hit mere singles.
| must be allowed to hit at least one
home run a day"
"But it might be necessary for the
sake OF team work for you to sacri-
flee once in a while" said the captain
mildly. "And the timely single.
ITO Gehenna with the singles" said
Bonnie. That's why | left the coal
mine. They wanted me to PICK the
little ones"
SO the magnates of the Futile League
put rubber centres in the baseballs
in order that Bonnie might be able
TO make long hits. Our hero batted
about 800, but the magnates went
broke paying for the balls that he
knocked cut of the lot.
REEL 4.-The Futile League has
gone on the blink, and Bonnie is now
working for John j. McGraw, tyran-
meal manager, who greatly resembles
Bill Fink, Bennie's old foreman.
There is a man on the bag and Nc
Graw gives Bonnie the signal for a
sacrifice Bonnie smiles haughtily. His
face registers resolution. None OF that
old army game for him. He would
knock the ball out of the lot and Mr..
McGraw would realize that he was a
superior player lie swings the old
pick handle, but the ball goes straight
uu into the air and is nailed by the
shortstop.
"What do you meant" demands Nc
Graw. 81 signalled for a bunt."
81 never bunt," says Bonnie. las
miner | only went after the big Jumps.
As ball player | seek only the long
hits"
REEL 5.-Jawn McGraw, the tyran-
nical magnate, decoys Bonnie Kauff to
the mining country of Pennsylvania.
Bonnie does not suspect any foul plot
and is quite cheerful.
"Here, Mr.. McGraw," says Bonnie.
"Ths is the place where | used to
mine coal. But | left because they
would not let me pick out the big ones.
| despise little Jumps and little hits"
81 see a whale of big lump at the
bottom of that shaft" says McGraw.
With the interest of the true coal
miner, Bonnie stoops over to see. Nc
Graw pushes him into the chaft.
ala. ha, Benjamin Kauffl" shouts
NcGraw into the shaft. "You can pick
out all the big ones as you dig your
way to China"
McGraw smiles pleasantly as he
strolls away into the sunset.

rushed off to the corral where he threw
himself on to an astonished heifer
For one second she squatted and then
went mad. With yell and fiogglng hat
Kemp poured oil on the fire of her
frenzy. She bucked and twisted and
all but somersaulted in her efforts to
rid herself of the demon on her back.
On the veranda, Lieber and Gerry held
their sides and roared at the most
grotesque fine riding they had ever
seen. Finally, with a desperate lunge,
the heifer breasted the corral fence.
1t caught her middle and she teetered
over. Kemp turned handspring from
her back and landed on his feet. The
heifer scrambled free from the fence
and tore, wild-eyed, out into the desert.
Laughter rang from every side. Three
herders threw themselves on to their
horses and rode, shouting, after the
heifer. Kemp Strengthened out his hat,
put it on, and walked sedately over to
the veranda. There was only faint
CLINT in his eye as he bought the mon
ster plant to crown the monster ship.
