As they say in the trentAes firing

costly.

Harry Davis, the famous old star
of the Athletics, and in his time one
of the best first basemen in the busi-
ness, was born in Philadelphia,
forty-three years ago, yesterday.
The veteran has many claims to re-
membrance, one Of which is that he
is the only man who ever stole first.
That peculiar incident has puzzled
many fans, but it was actually pulled
off. It was in the old days when Dave
Fultz. now president OF the Baseball
Players Fraternity, was playing in
the outer garden for the Mack bunch.
In this particular contest Davis was
perched on first and Ftlltz was on
third. Harry stole second in the hope
that the throw would give Fultz a
chance to race home. The pellet was
sent to the catcher in time to head of
Fultz, who barely managed to get
back TO third but Davis made second.
Captain Harry wanted that run, and
he was bound to have it, so when the
next ball was pitched he chased back

amazement Of players and fans. OF
course a big howl went up, but the
umpire could find nothing in the rules
to prohibit a player from running
backward if he wanted to- Having
swiped the initial bag, Harry then
took another opportunity to try to
steal second, and while the throw was
made in an endoavor to head him off
Fultz chased home with the coveted
run.
Davis commenced his big league
career twenty years ago, in 1886
when he was signed by the Giants
having previously played with Provi-
dence and Pawtucket. New York soon
turned him over to Pittsburgh, where
he remained until 1898. After a short
experience with Louisville. Davis quit
the game and went to work for
railway company When Connie Mach
invaded Philadelphia in 1901, he call

Ike Gibbs found his batting eye for

hit is needed, and then he's the man
with the war club.
Somebody said that Swain would
never make a player. Look at his
average and then try to find anyone
on the team that is doing better.

FIELDER JONES, MANAGER ST.
LOUIS BROWNS.

The New York Yankees will win
the American League pennant this
year. l don't see another team which
has a chance Chicago has been
lucky to win and it won't last. De-
troit is through now because it has no
pitchers and there is hardly anything
else in the league that compares with
Donovan's team.
Il don't think the Red Sox will re-
peat They are not playing the ball
they did last year and their pitchers
are not as good The trouble with
most teams in the league this year is
that the players are trying to call the
turn on what the pitcher is about to
put up to them and that makes some
of them look ridiculous when a smart
pitcher crosses them"

Sixteen years ago yesterday. Chris
ty Mathewson made his debut in the
box for the Giants. The old Washing
ton Park in Brooklyn was the scene
Of Big SKIS first attempt in the big
show, which was far from being a
triumph. In the fifth inning Ed. Do
heny blew up, and George Davis, then
pilot of the Giants. decided to give his
19-year-old recruit a chance to show
hih mettle. When Matty went in the
score was 5 70 5, and Brooklyn had
two men on. The Superbas got two
runs in that inning, and six more in
the remainder of the contest, WIN
ming by score Of 13 to Z. Christy
didn't win a game that year, and was
charged with the loss of three. In
April of 1901 he annexed his first vic
tory for the Giants, and had total Of
twenty 10 mis- credit that year, against
seventeen lost. He didn't become
real star, however, until 1908, when he
won thirty games and lost only thir-
teen. It was not until last year that
Natty began to slip, but even now he
is a handy man to have around.
Bill Doak the Cardinal twirler, will
round out this third year with the

I've seen some sweet pitching in
the American league, but never have
looked upon a greater feat than that
performed in New York the other
afternoon by Bob Shawkey, Of the
Yankees. When pitcher strikes out
the side in one inning the feat isn't
particularly remarkable, but Shaw
keys feat was performed in the eighth
inning and he famed Smith, Gandil
and myself in succession and each of
US took three swings.
There was not a called strike nor
foul, other than light foul tips during
the inning. Usually fouled strikes and
called strikes play a part in retiring
the side at the plate In this case
every strike was q missed swing.

Autumn Blouse Sheer and Dainty.

Autumn blouses might be spring
blOuses or summer blouses, for they
are made Of the same sheer and tlimsy
materials as those designed for the
warmest weather. Therefore 1t Is to
be inferred that coats must carry all
the responsibility in standing between
the lady of fashion and freezing wealth
err And coats, reinforced with high
collars of fur or helped out with capes
and scarfs, look quite able to do their
part. Therefore the blouse concerns
itself only with being dainty and beau
tiful.
For those who must have something
more substantial for indoor wear, there
are meny one-piece frocks of satin and
cloth, and there are strictly tailored
shirtwaists Of silk shirtings that are
smartly practical. But the majority Of
blouses are made Of crepe georgette,
crspa de chine, chiffon cloth, radium

and other novelty silk laces. net and
the sheer cottons like batiste and or
candle.
The combination of two colors in
the fabric, which proved popular in
the summer is still featured In blouses
now displayed for the new season.
Hemstitching. and picot edges also re-
main and in some models satin char
meuse is combined with chiffon cloth
or crepe. Occasionally the very sheer
blouse has net foundation.
A new model Is shown In the picture
above. 1t is made of georgette crepe
with open throat and sailor collar deep
ened by plated flounce of the crepe.
The sleeves are gathered into very
deep cuffs and these are finished about
the hand with plated frill of the
crepe. A soft tie Of silk or crepe adds
bit of color contrast to this and to
many other models.

Your street suit may be plain, or it
may be elaborate with plaitings and
shirrings. Machine stitching or hand
needlework may embellish it and for

coat may be three-quarter length or

to be plain and your collar is sure to
be high. Choose as you will among
