PLAUDITS FOR K0PF
Cincinnati Post and Enquirer Have Pleasant Things To Say About Short stop on Mattllewson's Team.

The Cincinnati papers have been been saying nice things about "Bill" Kopf recently. Tn spurt the Redlegs exhibited week or so ago was at tnbuted mainly to the excellent work of the local boy In the short field po- gition.
 This is what the Cincinnati Post says of Larry" as he is familiarly known in the Pork town.
 "Kopf has been an inspiration to his mates. They can't help following his lead in becoming confident in themselves, for the have seen what the old confidence has done to him.
 Larry isn't fresh. He's just full of pep. He does no bragging about his playing, but just goes out there at short every day and sets a dizzy pace.
 "When kopf arrived the whole club did. and that's all there is to the sud : den reversal of form b Mattys men,"
 The Cincinnati Enquirer Is quoted As follows: Bill Kopf played the worst shortstopping game in the big leagues up to the time the Reds began s their big drive and then he played the best. His improvement almost magi- gal in its completeness, seemed to carry the club right along with him His confidence restored, nothing could stop him.

THREE fIRSTS FOR
 M'COMbER STABLES.
Loftus Guides Trio to Victory at
 Saratoga Track

Saratoga, Aug. 9.-A. K. Macomber, who has spent more money than any other turfman in the past few years, was amply rewarded this afternoon when his red and white stripes flashed first past the judges in three of the six events on the card.
 The laurels surrounding MT. Ma comber's were crowded thickest when his superb imported lilly Sunbonnet carried PA pounds and galloped home in front in the labama stakes.
 Rated along by Loftus who. by the way. rode every one of the Macomber horses to victory, Sunbonnet was in fourth place for half of the mile and a quarter. Clifford A. Cochran's Fairy Wand was setting the pace, two lengths in front of Columbine, and Julialeon was in third place as they raced along the back stretch.
 As soon as Loftus called on the daughter of Sunstar for an exhibition of her real speed, the race was over. She shot by Fairy Wand as though
 
 Buffers Wistful was making a deter mined effort to overcome the ground lost by a slow beginning, but though she closed stoutly, she never had a chance to get on even terms with Sunbonnet.
 The Macomber successes started d with the opening event in which sev- enteen maiden two-year- olds went to the post. Loftus> had to carry three and a half pounds over to ride Walnut 1 Hall, which was coupled with Yer dant, both these youngsters are by the English sire, Sunflower Second, and Il looked in the early part of the race as though Loftus was laying back so that Verdant should win.
 J. O. Talbott's Icarus was making so much trouble in the stretch fo | Verdant, that Loftus began to rid' Walnut Hal in earnest and he rar over the others to win by a length Verdant making it good measure b! taking third place a length and { half behind Icarus. a
 After Sunbonnet had shown he quality in the Alabama stakes. MT Mac omber sent the old Peep O Da, gelding Hank O Day to the post fo the Sagamore handicap at mile In spite of the fact that he carried | top weight of 126 pounds Hank o Day was made favorite. It took ons l of Loftus' best riders to land him z winner as he was in tight quarter! in the back stretch. Getting clear O. the interference Hank O Day wal further favored by the banging abou of J. E. Widener's Chiclet, his chic contender. When Chiclet found ar opening on the rail Hank O Day haf victory in sight and with Loftus push ing him to the limit he won by hal 1 length.

Vaughn Rests Marquard.

ls Chicago, Aug. 9.-Big Jim Vaughn, the husky southpaw of the Cubs, con- huered Rube Marquard and the cham pion Dodgers in the opening game of the series at Weeghman park by bcore of ? to O. From a Chicago standpoint this engagement proved the acme of perfection.
 To begin with it was one of the fastest games of the season. Only one hour and 23 minutes were re- quired to complete the pitching duel. And duel it was, despite the fact that the pitching was as one-sided as !, the score. Marquard allowed only Reven hits and kept these so we'll scat tered that the Cubs had great diff tculty in scoring. Vaughn, on the other hand, showed 100 per cent pitching efficiency.

New York, Aug. 9.-The embattled Yankees split a double header with. the ambitious Cleveland Indians at the Polo Grounds yesterday and thor oughly convinced Lee Folh,s pack that it will be no soft job climbing over the recumbent corpses of Wild Will liam Donovan's crew. Tn the first game the Tanks batted Bagby out of the box and finished by the decisive score of 8 to 9. The second session consisted entirely of home runs. the Indians getting the odd homer and winning by 2 to 1.
 Ray Fisher, who worked in the opening game for the Yankees, had the Cleveland Indians ready to hit the pipe of peace all through the session. In addition to pitching a beautiful game the precocious pedagogue got himself a couple of hits. One of these was a home run which alighted in the left-field bleachers.
 Ray Caldwell was again the victim of tough luck in the second contest. Nothing but home runs seemed to count here Elmer Smith and Graney connected for a pair of these for the Indians. Caldwell, after waiting in vain for Pipp and Baker to pole the ball out of the lot. went in and hit a home run himself. But the Tanks needed another home run to tie and two more to win. The scores:
