The theory has existed so far that
the most effective way to discipline
ball player, who missed a signal,
who hit when he was ordered to
bunt and who ran to the fence when
he should have grabbed a fly back
of second base was to sock him in
his most vital spot-his wallet.
So far this. season all kinds Of
discipline has been visited upon ball
players whose actions on the field
were not in accordance with the
managers idea OF a hustler.
Grover Cleveland Alexander, The
Great, went down the river from
Chicago to st. Louis, because he
didn't agree with his manager.

Nip-andTucIS

The Miss Dunn-Mrs. Tinsley
match was nip-and-tuck affair, a
battle from the start. Miss Dunn
was up at the turn and playing
the game just as well as she did
when she trounced Miss Hull,
Wednesday to dethrone the defend
ing champion.
Mrs. Tinsley took the eleventh
and numbers ~, 10 and IA were
halved. Miss Dunn again reached
the. two up. margin with a 4 on
No. Is, but Mrs. Tinsley took adj
vantage of Miss Dunn's topped drive
on sixteen and cut it to one.
With chance to square the match
on No. II, Mrs. Tinsley drove beauti-
fully while Miss Dunn was on the
hillside. Miss Dunn played safe to
the fairway, and used an iron to
reach the left Of the green in 8.
Mrs. Tinsley used a wood and
drove into the ditch. Not giving UP.
she dropped the. ball back of the
ditch with a one-stroke penalty, then
used a spoon to drive the green.
They lay alike on the green in fours,
but a long putt by the Crawfords-
vile player was short and Miss
Dunn was down in two for the
match.
Mrs. Gibbs in Lead
Mrs. Gibbs was one up on Mrs.
East at nine holes. The tenth hole
was halved with sevens, and Mrs.
Gibbs rose to three up, winning elev.
en- and twelve with fives. Mrs. East
refused to .concede defeat and won
fifteen and sixteen after thirteen
and fourteen had been halved.
The match stood Mrs. Gibbs. / up.
as they left the seventeenth tee. Mrs.
East failed to stand up under the
strain of Mrs. Gibbs beautiful drive
and second shot and fell into the
same fate as Mrs. Tinsley in the
other match and placed her second
shot in the ditch. She could not get
out and was down in 8. while Mrs.
Gibbs was IN the green in 8 and
down in 5. with perfect golf.

TWO HOT FINISHES IN THE LEAGUES

The battles for supremacy in the two major baseball leagues enter upon their last days with two of the best flag races in decades. This includes the trace" in the American league, which heretofore has been more like procession, with the Yankees leading in safety most of of the year. But the series played with Cleveland the past week has shown the world that the runners ID know how to play the game sec ond to nobody; and there are a horde of experts who unequivocally declare the Cleveland team for a month or two has been playing the strongest article of ball. as the sports writers term it, in the league. Only the astonishing lead secured by the Yankees earlier in the season has enabled them to "stay out in front"
 In the National league the race remains one Of the hcart-breaking kind with the St. Louis Cardinals earning much admiration for their herculean efforts to bring the first pcnnant to their city in the history of modern baseball leagues. Gin cinnati. also a strong contender, once won such distinction. so that nearly everybody outside of Ohio is somewhat inclined 10 hope the Cardinals land that pcnnant and thus inject variety into the scene.
 For McGraw and his Giants there seems to be little sympathy. For years this team has held sway as the nearly undisputcd National league champions until it began to pail upon the crowd 10 sec the name at the head of the list. Last year Pittsburgh orertopped the Giants and won the World Series after a wonderful finish, and that suited everybody except the rooters for Washington. This year the Giants tumbled early in the season and at no time have they been serious contenders, which has been good .Dins for tAe game at large.

That the case could have been allowed to slumber for four years without probe deep enough to justify serious action in dicates officials concerned were more inclined to pass it up than at tempt a serious effort to bring its remarkable circumstances 10 light. Now we are to get somewhere in trying to solve this mystery, but it must not be overlooked that there is huge difference between grand jury indictments and convictions. In a case such as this one, where the evidence is largely circum- stantial, conviction will be doubly hard. Yet it is 8 satisfaction 10 realize that really serious attempt is being made to fix the blame for the murder of the rector and the choir singer.

 man of the board. intends to stick at the game and attempt to broaden the scope of it's activities. This looks as if the governor and his company are decidedly not dis. couragcd with the outlook.
