Playing ball of cham pionShip cali Der. New Haven rubbed it in to Bridgeport, to 0. yesterday after noon at Newf1eld park and the local team didn't have a look in because Pitcher Hehl. who was on the mound for the visitors, had everything during the afternoon and the local swat smiths were unable to do a thing to his delivery. Only three hits were collected during the afternoon, one of them of the scratchy variety, while the other two were the kind that count.
 On the other hand, New Haven pep pered Glynn for II hits. Add to this first class base running and splendid fielding and the whole story is told how New Haven won the game. To top it all off Johnny Nagle, the visiting catcher, stole home Tn the ninth in ming while Pitcher Glynn was winding up.
 It was the second time in the game that he had stolen home. The first time was in the seventh when he beat it for the plate after Skif made a throw to second to get Gillespie, who was stealing second. Five stolen bases was the record of the New Haven team on the paths yesterday and showed them to be a lively bunch when they get on the sacks
 Chief Benders tribe didn't wait long before they got under way in the score making. In the second inning Torphy singled over second, moved along on sacrifice and talfed when Shay pumped a single to left. Bracket made a throw to the plate in an effort to get Torphy. but the ball got away from Skiff and Shay went around to third from where he scored as Glynn was throwing out Nagle at first.
 There were no more tallies until the seventh and then another cluster came. McGowan opened with a triple to center, but remained on the third station while Shay fouled out and Nagle walked. Heh1 slammed the ball to center for a safe one, Mo Gowan scoring and Nagle went to second. Gillespie hit one down to second and Hehl was forced at the midway, but Nagle took third and Gillespie reached first. The double steal was called and Gillespie ran toa sec ond Skiff delayed his throw for a second so Gillespie was safe and when Nagle saw the ball going to second he dug for the plate and made it be- fore the ball could get back.
 Two more runs were registered in the eighth. Hargraves opened with a single through short and stole sec

BALTIMORE JUDGE SAYS
 FANS ARE FANATICS

Baltimore, Aug. M.-Justice Schroe- der, Police Magistrate of Baltimore, believes that rooters at a. baseball game suffer from a mild form of in sanity when they mob the umpires or throw popsbottles, lemons, stones and other missiles at visiting players. And because he so believes is why Albert Darago, IS years old, is not, in jail to- day.
 Darago is the fan who threw a mis- sile wrapped in paper at Mike Doo- Ian, one of the unpires in yesterdays $ game betw ween Baltimore and Buffalo at Oriole Park. Daragos aim was bad. The missile. hurled by the East Baltomorean struck Sergt. Gooding of the Northern District on the head, breaking the crown of the sergeants hat, but doing no. other injury.
 In fining Darago, Justice Schroeder said:
 T realize that a, baseball fan at a close game becomes obsessed with the idea that there is a conspiracy against the home team and that the umpire becomes a prime leader in the con spiracy.
 Realizing that the spirit that prompted his assault, I simply will fine him this time.'

GIANTS MAY PLAY
 TWICE. TOMORROW

The succession of showers yeSter- day afternoon converted the Polo Grounds into a huge lake and flooded out the double header which was to have been played between the Giants and Pirates. First the opening game was postponed and then the entire program was washed into the Har- lem River.
 There will be two games this after noon, and it is likely that there will be two more tomorrow, as the card called for a series of five games and the Giants want to get in as many contests as possible while they are travelling so fast Douglas and Ben ton will be the New York pitchers to- day, while the Pirates will call on Adams and Carlson.

 NATURALIST IN MIND

Saratoga Springs. N. Y, Aug. H. Commander J. K L. Ross Boniface, which has been justly called the iron horse of the season because of the great distances he has travelled and the numerous starts he has made, appeared to be just as good yesterday as when he opened his campaign in Maryland in the early spring. Run ming to his very best form, be took the measure of J. E. Widener's Natur- alist in the Delaware Handicap at a mile, proving to be the better mud runner of the two. He won handily by a length and half, while A. H. Macomber's Royce Rools. the only other starter in what promised to be a large field, was a bad last.

Crisp Bingles

Probably Benny Kauff's best day since he has been with Toronto in the International League was last Satur- dayf fwhen he got six hits 1n both games of a double header with Balti- more. In the first game Benny crashed out four out of five and in the second had two out of four. His hits in the second game were a dou- ble and a triple. In a little more than 20 games Kauff has made seven home runs.
 It appears as though Manager Joe Birmingham erred when he agreed to swap Pitcher Stubing for Lefty Craig of Waterbury. Despite the fact that he is with tail-end club Stubing has been doing great work on the mound while Craig has been pitching inferior ball for the Hillies.
 Al Harber has a unique record. In the Pittsfield series the hustling left fielder in the three games was off cially at. bat six times. Al made three hits and as a result boosted his bat ting average a bit. When it comes to getting on bases -Harber can't be touched by any other player in the league. In the double-header Monday he reached first six times and yeSter- day landed on base twice. This is one of the reasons why he is one of the most valuable members of the team.

 What's become of the ancient hammer-throwe who used to think that one good turn with the old iron ball, didn't deserve another? For a long time the 'whales' simply took one good whirl with the. missile and let the thing fly where it would. It was back in the autumn of 1901 that Flanagan developed the double turn.
