SPORTING NOTES

Harry Sparrow, business manager of l the Yankees, has announced that the team had just purchased Moose Mil l Ter, a big right-handed pitcher who has been fooling them all in an east ern Canada league. The Moose will he herded with the Yankees shortly and given a trial.
 The Giants and Yankees are neck draw into the home stretch The Tanks lead by point. Their average is 261, against .266 for the Giants. The
 Yankees, however, have knocked out
 forty more bingles. Huggins team has
 whacked out 1,010 hits, against 970
 for the Giants.
 Harry Hooper, Red Sox outfielder
 was not playing his usual game last spring. For time it looked as though Harry had seen his best days. Then he suddenly braced. He has just gone through a stretch of thirty-five games in which he has not made an error, while he advanced his batting average from .25S to .270 during the same period
 Another thing which seems to be ag- itating the boys is the number of runs scored by the Reds last week. Owing to an error in the Associated Press box sent out last Sunday, Cincinnati was credited with 40 runs instead of 45. We trust that settles it.
 A familiar line is appearing in the Philadelphia prints. Mack's latest pitcher, a Jimmy Finn, is a jewel, a diamond and all that stuff. In the Texas league he was known as a sec ond leXander. After seeing some of Mack's pitching jewels since he dug up Plank, Bender and Coombs some dis tance back in the calendar pre- fer to see him shine on the ball field before taking Mack's word for it.
 Charley Grimm, the former St. Louis batboy, who was carried by the Card lnals last year extra first base man, is to get another trial in the big leagues. Last year the Cardinals re- leased Charley to the Little Rock team and Pittsburgh has purchased the player from that club.
 Jack Dempsey, heavyweight cham pion, has declared he favors holding the next championship bout in Detroit Dempsey will make his home there He announced his plans recently of build ing a residence this winter, but first will spend some time on Texas ranch. Dempsey says he believes the new Michigan boxing law, permitting ten round bouts, will make it possible to hold championship contests here, and that he will meet the next challenger in Michigan if possible.

lery train on a narrow slippery road.

SO they were just taking up half Of
the road, and stopped them. l didn't
dare get over farther, for fear they
would slide on in the ditch. The
artillery came up to US and also
stopped. There was French second
lieutenant who could speak some
English, who rode up to me on his
horse and the conversation ran some
thing slike this:
"Passe! Passe! Move your trucks
on!"
II can't move on; your artillery is
right in the middle of the road
Pass around them"
Il don't dare; my trucks will go
in the ditch. We have been having
trucks stuck in the mud all along"
"And we, also, have been getting
stuck all day."

my drivers go in the ditch"
You're taking up over half the
road"
,"Oh! no; I'm not-take good
look"
Then we will stay here for
month
"All right; let it be month. I've
got truck load of bread and three
trucks Of wine; my men won't
starve."
The French second lieutenant rides
away exasperated. Pretty soon,

gives orders to his men to start
The drivers crack their whips, yell at
their horses and the big guns roll

At the clubs, comparatively few
men waited for the midnight hour.
