ago of the American League. The Senior League leads in runs scored in worlds series by 284 to 273.
 As between the eastern and west ern division of the major leagues the former has won nine series andthe latter six, being the same advantage the American League holds over the National. Of the 15 series already played seven were distinctly eastern affairs while five were played entire ly in the west, with three as inter sectional series. The first series un- der the National Commission in 1905 was between two eastern clubs, the New York Giants defeating the Phila delphia athletics. Then for four years the big games were played en- tirely in the west, the two Chicago teams clashing in 1906; the Chicago Cubs and Detroit in 1907 and 1908 and Pittsburgh and Detroit in 1909
 East and West came together for the first time in 1910, when Connie Mack's Athletics defeated the fading Chicago Cubs For six years after from 1911 to 1916 the worlds base ball championship was decided in the east and then came two intersectional series followed by an all western series between Cincinnati and the Chicago White Sox last year.
 The only time that a worlds cham pionship has been made a city affair i since the National and American Leagues have been contestng for the { title was in 1906, when the Chicago White Sox, then known as the Hit less Wonders defeated the Chicago Cubs, who won their first pennant under the leadership of Frank L ] Chance.
 The following table shows the re- suit of each series since 1905 as to games won and lost and runs scored l by winning and opposing teams:

his father-in-law, adopted the strange re.
prsal of leaving his two little sons on the
doorstep Of the Work mansion in Madison
Square. Ever since then they have been
members of New York society and to all
appearances Americans.
But during all this time the7 etainei
their British citizenship-and Maurice his
right to the title of Lord Fermoy.
AS time went on old Mr.. Work became
more and more furious at the thought OF
foreign husbands and the unhappiness
they were causing to American girls. He
forbade his children and grandchildren TO
have anything to do with Europeans or TO
go to Europe. He sat up nights planning
a will that would enforce his ideas on this
subject.
Just when Mr.. Work felt that he had
completely separated his daughter from
the British aristocracy, she enraged him
by marrying the Hungarian coaching en-
pert, Aurel Batonyi, a man who was not
only a foreigner but Of much lower social
status than her first husband After q few
months of married life they separated and
we're divorced. .t -
When Mr.. Work died in 1911 1t was
found that he had left a will with no less
than fifteen codicils, all Of them aimed at
preventing his children and grandchildren
from having anything to do with Europe
An estate of about 100000 each was left
10 the Burke Roche twins, on condition
that they observe its various provisions.
After providing for various legacies the
will said

Frances Ellen Work, shall share equally In
the residue OF the estate, provided that
they become American citizens within a
year OF my death, take the name OF Work
and keep a permanent legal residence in
the United States"
In one codicil the testator said:
Il hereby direct that my daughter, Fran.
ces Ellen Burke Roche, shall not in any
manner contribute to the living expenses
OF James B. Burke Roche, or make or
cause any payments OF money to him or
for his benefit directly or indirectly, and

control is not calculated to promote their
happiness
Concerning his, granddaughter, Cynthia
Roche, who afterward became Mrs. Arthur
S. Burden, Mr.. Work provided in his will:

her and such interest in my estate az

dren, or such If them as shall have OBJ

my will"
In another codicil he said:
81 do hereby expressly will and provide
that my daughter, Frances Ellen, and her
children, shall not during my lifetime,
without my express consent, nor at any
time after my death, visit or reside in the
Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland, or

"I make these provisions for the protec.

grandchildren and in the belief that they
can find in the United States enough to in
terest, instruct and amuse them. and all
the varieties OF climate at any time neces.

In another codicil Mr.. Work stipulated
concerning his Burke Roche grand
children:

the lifetime OF the said J. B. Roche and
during its minority reside in or visit the

That such grandchild shall not live with

evident that the Burke Roche twins had

respects-they had not adopted the name

Tie most peculiar position is that of
Francis Burke Roche, who simply, because
| lie was born one minute later than his
twin brother, Maurice. lost the possibility
of becoming a British lord with a castle
and great estates in Ireland.
But Maurice is in almost as strange a
situation, for in order to assert his un.
questioned right of becoming a British
lord he runs the risk of losing a great
American fortune.

The dashing young Irishman. now Lord
Fermoy, married Fanny Work, who was
considered the greatest beauty in New
York society back in the eighties OF the
last century. Miss Work was the daugh-

remarkably autocratic temper, so much so
that he would drive from his presence any.

satisfy him.
The young heiress had a share OF her
fathers autocratic spirit, and her husband
had q high-spirited Irish temper OF his
own. The result was that after the birth
OF three children they had an unhappy
and violent quarrel Mrs. Burke Roche
took refuge with her father, who de.

about this and Maurice Burke Roche re-
piled:

have been informed that we are entirely

The young men were received in Lon
don as members Of a noble British family,
which must have been rather pleasing to
them.
While there they had a short interview
with their father. but what understanding
they reached has not been announced.
When 1t became apparent that the
Burke Roche twins were disregarding
some of the provisions OF Frank Works
will their lawyers were questioned as to
what effect this would have on their in,
heritance. The lawyers declined to give
any explanation, but the statement was
published that the other parties interested
would permit the twins to receive their
shares of the estate intact and this was.
never denied.
II was explained that the feeling Of the
family was that Mr.. Work was exceedingly
eccentric and that some OF his provisions
appeared to be contrary to public policy.
Nevertheless, until the matter has been
legally passed upon, there will always re-
main an impression that the twins by
keeping their paternal name and other.
wise disregarding the grandfather's will
are risking the loss OF a great fortune.
The other important heirs besides the
twins are their sister, Mrs. Arthur s. Bur

Hewitt The will as unofficially inter
preted means that II either of the twins
disobeys its provisions his share shall be
divided equally among the remaining
grandchildren and Mrs. Hewitt. but the
codicils are so numerous and confusing
that II would require prolonged study to
reach any conclusion as to their legal
