players who assert that work has
nc terrors for them
Truck Hannah is doing the catch
ing for the Yankees for the present
since catcher Al Walters hurt his fin
ger in 2 game the other day.
Walter HoIke has been informed by
his local board in St Louis that his
case would not be reached for a few
weeks and was advised to remain
with the Giants until he is ordered to
leave them.
Tim Hendrix made a very poor start
in hitting this season, but he has been
doing some very good stick work for
the Browns in recent games.
Bobbie Wallace has been in base
ball Tor a long while, but that he is
rot too old 10 fall for a simple trick
was demonstrated by Larry Doyle in
the eleventh inning Of recent game
between the Giants and the Cardi-
nails in St. Louis. With Burns On third
and Young on first, Doyle hit TO
Fisher, who threw TO the plate. but
Burns turned back toward third and
for a moment was hung up" between
third and home Young, who had gone
down 70 third, waited until Burns slid
back into the bag and then raced
for second Doyle was standing at
the middle bag, which was not COW

SIXTEEN YEARS OF HERMANN.
August Hermann Will today round
out his 18th year as a National league
magnate, as il was on August 9, 1902,
that John T. Brush sold the Cincinnati
club TO GARY" George 3. Cox and
Max and Julius F1eischman, the price
being $4,000. Hermann was chosen
president Of the club. and he has held
that job ever since In pulling off the
deal by which Christy MatheWson be-
came manager Of the Reds, Garry
scored a ten strike with the ferocious
fans Of Redland.
Herman started life as a printer,
and later became a politician by trade.
He was not slow in making a hit with
his fellow magnates when he entered
the baseball field Of endeavor- When
the big war between National and
American leagues was brought 20 a
peaceful conclusion in 1903 the new
president Of the Cincinnati club was
made chairman Of the national COM
mission. As chief justice Of the SUI
preme court OF baseball Herrmanu's
decisions have usually been accepted
cheer1ullys and Il is only rarely that
his judgements have been questioned
Hermann was long a power in
Cincinnati politics. but he retired
from active participation IN that game
about eight years ago. Lee Foil

happened Immediately surrounding
his accident. Playing upon this the
plCtters forge a document purporting
to be a marriage licens issued to
Herbert Brancaster and Mrs. DaQuili
and by means of this paper they sue

supposed author.
SARTORIS DOES THE DIRTY WORK
Kelly has heard varying rumors
concerning "The Whip" and com
missions Sartoris, with whom he has
formed an alliance, to find out the
horses real condition, which he man
ages to do by making love to the
Jockeys innocent young sister. The
day of the great race approaches, and
the bookmaker, who has laid large
sum with Brancaster against the
horse, matches a plot with Sartors to
destroy the animal
The Whip is shipped to Saltoga
in box car attached to local train
upon which Sartoris is a passenger.
At a lonely point Sartoris uncouples
express is not far behind, and hoping
it will smash the detached car.
But Brancaseter, autOmobiling from
New York to the races, is oTertaken
by telephone at the roadside hotel
where he is dining, and warned of the
impending disaster by Diana, who
has obtained knowledge of the con-
spiracy. Brancaster springs into his
auto, and after a long, thrilling race
with the express, reaches the stalled
box car just in time to get out the
horse before the collision ocurs.
THE BIG RACE
Next day at the race track, when
Kelly and Sartoris find that The
Whip is ready to start in spite of
their Vaccinations, they trump up a
criminal charge against the jockey,
and cause his arrest as the horses are
going to the post. But even this fails,
for the racing authorities grant a
slight delay for substituting another
rider, and Diana, slipping on her
! fathers turf colors rifles The Whip
to victory; and Bo Kelly, enraged
over his losses and what he believes
to be the perfidy of his associates
exposes them in their true light.
This removes the cloud that has
| been lowering over Brancaster, and
he receives a hearty welcome back by
Judge Beverley as his daughters

Baron Sartoris, the black sheep OF

his INSCRIPTIONS female accomplish
| Mrs. Daquili, are passengers on a
great Atlantic liner bound for New
| York
They are not over flush and the
object of their expedition is to har-
vest American dollars by any method
that falls to their hands. The instru-
ment through which they hope to at.
| tain their purpose is a letter of intro
duction to Judge Beverley, a very
wealthy American, who has an eX-
ceedingly pretty daughter possibly
susceptible to the allurements of a
British title
On board the same steamship is
Herbert Brancaster, a young Amer
lean of good standing and comfor-
table fortune, returning from his art
studies in Europe. The Englishman
and his companion strike up an ac-
quaintance with young Brancaster and
the woman flirts with him madly.
AT THE WHARF
At the wharf in New York Judge
Beverley and Diana, his daughter,
meet their visiting guests and renew
their former acquaintance with Bran
caster who is invited to call at the
Beverley country house. Between
the girl and the young artist natural
interest springs up Immediately, while
it is apparent that the suit of the for
tune hunting foreigner is not likely
to prosper.
Judge Beverley's country domain is
magnificent. His greatest pleasure
in life is the breeding of fine strains
of horseflesh, and he conducts one of
the moast noted establishments of the
kind in America
Among his thoroughbreds is a
horse named The Whip, which has
developed startling speed but &
