THE HISTORY OF THE OLD WITCH.

Once upon a time there lived an old
witch, who played cruel tricks on every
body in n certain little village. She
had pair Of dragons. She would
sometimes fly over the whole village
and drop poison into the peoples milk
In the hot summer nights she would
carry off all Of the vegetables out Of
their gardens to her den. In the win
ter she would carry away their fowls
that they had worked hard to fat.en
The people of the little village told
their story TO the city police, but they
didn't protect them n bit; they only
called the people lunatics.
One morning the people Of this lit
tie village met together under a large
maple tree and made a plan to rid
themselves from the cruel old witch
Their plan was to hide behind the great
wood pile, go when she few down they
might take away from her dragons IL
they possibly could. Night came ut
last. They waited patiently, and at a
very late hour the cruel witch few
down to the ground. but she didn't have
her dragons; she had on a pair OF false
wings. which, OF course, was better
for the people. They rushed at hor
and took away her wings, and she fell
to the ground and turned to stone.
The people Of this little village lived
in peace and Joy over afterwards, and
tho stone lies In tho garden until this
day.

the street he saw the form OF an aged
woman stretched across the pavcm ent.
Ho picked her up the best he could, and
started TO take her to his home. The
boys stoned and Knocked him. but he
noticed them not. After much toll. he
arrived at his house. All that his
mother said was, God blass YOU my
SON" He, looking pleased enough at
once went for a doctor. When the doc

drunken son. The boy was heavily

BENNY LEONARD Is
BEATEN BY WELSH
BY ED CCRLEY.

Brooklyn, n. Y. July S.-Freddy Welsh
the worlds lightweight champion con-
vinced 1900 fans who tammed Washing
ton Park tonight that he knows how TO
fight. The champion met his recent con-
queror, Benny Leonard. in ten-rOund
bout and outpointed him as decisively
as eLonard handed 1t TO him few
months ago. The champion was there
with everything that a fighter needed and
except for two or three rounds forced
the fighting all the way. His speed. his
marvellous footwork and his wonderful
elusiveness were three characters that
Leonard could not overcome.
The champion showed that he was al
his best. He entered the ring at lS5 IL
pounds In the early part, or rather
the third and fifth rounds, the Leonard
adherents were in their glory. In these
two sessions Leonard brought into play
a right-hand body blow that bothered
Welsh more than a little. After the fifth
Welsh stepped along at a pace that proved
too dazzling for his ambitious rival Be
| ing outpointed by Welsh is no disgrace to
Leonard, for there is hardly any other
lightweight in the game that could have
performed as well as Benny did with the
champion.
As the men left the ring the vast
throng stood up and gave Welsh rOus-
! ing demonstration.

While John McGraw thinks the Giants

clubs that ever has represented Brooklyn
in the National League.
'Robby' has a splendid ball club, and
none can gainsay that they are in the
fight to the finish" said McGraw. HE
has lot OF free swingers who are apt
to break loose at any time, and one of
the best pitching stafrs in the league. Any
club that can lead a race as taut as the
National League campaign has been thus
far deserves a lot Of credit and the re-
spect Of all rivals. I would not be sur
prised to see the Dodgers win, although
favor the Braves myself"
The Dodgers won again yesterday and
are still leading the National League race
by four games.

Notes of the Game

AS the result of the Friday walloping,
the Nationals dropped TO sixth place and
the Tigers move up a notch in the
standing. Washington hasn't won a game
at Detroit during the two series played
there. The jinx that was at Boston last
year has moved to the Michigan Metrop-
oils.
Detroit fans think that the Tigers are
starting another pennant drive and are
becoming excited. Certain 1t is that the
club has shown lot of good baseball
this week. The pitching has been pretty
good for that town, which never excells
on the slab.
The Nationals never will get going
q gain until their fielding picks up. Three
errors was, the total today and all of
them might have made trouble, instead
CO just one.
Ayers couldn't get his curve to break
ing. and had to rely on his fast one.
which sailed fairly well.
Cobb robbed Milan OF a triple in the
fourth by going way back to the stands
and spearing drive out of the ozone.
1t took Hughey Jennings four innings
to get Umpire Connolly to call balk on
Ayers. but Hughey kept Grabbing until
the balk was called.
Foster and Milan showed some speed
in the sixth, when they both beat out
inield hits. Milan ran like a deer on his
bunt.
Dubuc has won four games from Wash
ington this year. three of them in this
series. The Nationals have beaten him
twice. once in an overtime game that
he finished for some one else They
knocked him out of the box at Washing
ton on May Il, cominE from behind in
the eighth and winning.
