Ix i ' L-00 tGTH ROUGH-THf crT-r fc Pittsburg, and the Clarke Wants Four Championship Pennants BASEBALL Tall Enders and Their Mismanagement Affects Troubles Players iW OOi L OOK out for Pittsburg!" says Captain Fred Clarke of the Smoky City Pirates, cham pions of the National league. "We're coming fast, and we will make It four pennants straight." Clarke Is an optimistic young man, to ay the least. The New York Nationals obtained a lead late in June and early . this month that would have been sum 's, clent to discourage a majority of teams, i but Clarke does not consider any sort f of a handicap too great to be overcome - when three months of a season remain to be played, so he keeps pounding away at the percentage table. Will Pittsburg Win the Pennant? If the truth be told the one momen tous question among National league teams is, "Will Pittsburg finish strong enough to win the pennant 7" The oth er seven teams In the race have been defeated three consecutive years by the Emoky City ball tossers, and they have unconsciously formed the habit of los ing to them. Therefore it Is not strange that even with Pittsburg a long dis tance behind the leading teams the ri vals of the Pirates should fear them. Needs More Pitchers. If Clarke had a stronger pitching staff be would probably forge to the fore in short order. As matters new stand, his success depends largely on the effec tiveness, of his Infield and on the bat ting of the team. With Tommy Leach on the third sack. Hans Wagner at short, Ritchey at second and "Kitty" Bransfield at first the Pirates are as strong; In the infield as any aggregation In the league. These men form a "stone wall" Infield lf ever one existed. Ths New York Natienals. In spite of the statements of Clarke, In spite of the snappy playing of Cin cinnati under Joe Kelley and In spite of the brilliant work of Selee'a Chicago Cubs the New York Nationals are the favorites in the National league race. McOraw seems to have struck the win J ning combination at last, and lf the ' Giants pitchers continue without se rious Injury all will be well for the charges of our old transplanted Cincin nati friend, John T.

A Tale of Tail Enders. The Philadelphia Nationals and the Washington Americans should shake hands. This season they have proved the most consistent tall enders seen for many a long year. Philadelphia has slumped miserably since the days when Napoleon Lajole, the late Ed Delehanty and Hughey Jennings wore Quaker uniforms. The new manage ment seems to be unable to put life into the club, and It has gone steadily from bad to worse. "Chief Charley Zimmer tried his best to put a winning team in the field fof the Quakers, but failed, and now Hugh Duffy has inherited the task. Duffy, a star ball player In his day, is unable to make progress as manager, and we can only wonder who his suc cessor will be. Five Able Quaker Nationals. The Fhtladelphlas have Just enough good players to give the team rank as a major league organization. In Roy Thomas, Wolverton, Jimmy Hulswitt and Pitchers Fraser and Duggleby they have the foundation for a strong nine In seasons te come. The Washington Situation. The Washington Americans are In a worse plight than even the Philadel phia Nationals. The management has not been successful, and the team's line up is best described by the word hope less. It was only recently that they were 500 points behind the leading team. Perhaps these two teams will get to gether at the close of the season and play for a consolation prize. There does not seem te be the " slightest chance of either team rising higher than last place throughout the cam paign. Ownership Troubles.

Emile Selva, the champion wrestler of Italy, who is now In New York, has issued a defi to the world for either the middle or heavy weight championships. He Is one of the few men who can acquit themselves with credit in either class. Selva has a wonderful knowledge of the wrestling game, and 'the American cracks had better watch out- He Is as strong as a mountain lion and as agile as a wildcat, two essential qualities of a champion mat performer. club franchise has been juggled until the punctuation marks cn it are diz zy. President Ban Johnson of the league had to give a great deal of at tention to the club, and had it not been for him chaos would have reigned supreme. Each succeeding crop ot stockholders has been only too willing after a time to lay down the burden of responsibility. The effect on players may readily be seen. No high priced man sure of a guaranteed salary on well financed teams is anxious to sign with a team that Is controlled by dif ferent people every few weeks.

I qualify this by saying that I never knew of a good English dramatist who didn't start off in his ca reer with a one act play. My father did. He wrote 'The Old Guard' for his schoolfellows, and . he . followed it up. But you know the rest. I would like to repeat what I wrote some time since about ' playwritlng; how you should take your subject, cut it Into climaxes, then Into situations and then into scenes, and let the dialogue take care of itself. The dialogue will come out of the situation, but c-rtatnly not the sit uation out of the dialogue. But this Is beside the subject. "I have no fear for the future, nor do I see why. we should not have as capa ble actors In the future as we have had in the past if they will only trouble themselves with a capable theatrical education got on the stag-e. I had an experience once with Wyndham which Is amusinr enough and shows how a man can get out of - a difficulty and learn how to swim by himself. I had a part in a farce of an Impecunious young man who was incessantly getting into debt and as incessantly writing to his father for money. Well, a man was supposed to bring on a letter for me, but he didn't arrive. I tramped up and down the stage, while Wyndham looked on in an. amused way from the wings at my predicament. 'My debts are crowding on me!' I shouted, not being able to think of anything else. But the letter did not come. Then I took an other lap up the room and sank on the couch, which immediately rose up and hit me in the back of the neck. I rose with all the dignity I had left and crossed over to a chair, on which I sat. It promptly broke. Then, in despera tion. I looked at the laughing , Wynd ham and said piteously: "'There! Even my furniture won't support me!' "That overcame Wyndham, who promptly rang down the curtain. That's what I mean by education." "THE TWO ORPHANS." i If Glara Merrls Is In good health next season she will probably go on tour with "The Two Orphans" company. Several changes In the all star cast will be made for the tour. Kyrle Bellew will give way as the chevalier to James O'Neill, M. L- Alsop will replace Fred erick Perry as the Count de Linieres, Henry E. Dixey will probably be Pi card in place f E. M. Holland, Louis James will take the part of Jacques Frochard, heretofore played by Charles Warner; J. E. Dedson will assume Mr. O'Neill's role of Pierre, and Sarah Tru ax will be substituted for.'

There are certain set rules, or- at least crystallized conventions, which are as much a part of the actor's art as the "tormenters" or the "sky bor ders" are of overy theater. The stage villain, for example. From time im memorial he has been provided with an assortment of smiles, which, accord ing to circumstances, might be classed under several headings. He usually makes his appearance with a smile of composure, then follows an imitation of sincerity and finally comes the thwart ed smile of dejection and despair. Those who saw Edwin Booth as Iago can never forget the demoniac smile which suffused his countenance when he filched Desdemona's handkerchief. There was as much meaning in that vampire smile as there are words in an unabridged dictionary. The actor's face brightened with a demoniacal glare, his lips parted like an angry hound, disclosing his shining white teeth, and there was in his smile a symposium of ruthless cunning. Somehow in real life, ad on the stage, we distrust a man who wreathes his face in a perpetual smile. Pope knew well the quality of the constant smiler, saying, "Eternal smiles his emptiness betray, as shallow streams run dim pling all the day." Dickens found in Mrs. Fezziwig one of the perpetual kind, for she "wore one substantial smile" and wearied everybody with it. A person who stares like a sick face is an improvement on the one that smiles like an orang outang. The leading lady is likewise chary of her smiles. She uses them with great care and economy. She never really gets beyond a semismile or smiling glances that shoot and illuminate like sudden gleams that glow through au tumn clouds, for to break Into a broad grin would be to smash almost any scene. In your popular leading man there is usually a mixture of the dejected and the forlorn. It is the comedian, the soubrette and villain whose business it is to indulge in this pastime. This trio can work the muscles of their faces into as many creases as there are lines on a map, and nobody will complain. But now and again we have a come dian as solemn as a thunder bird and cold as a mausoleum who manages to avoid shaking both his sides when he perpetrates a noble and glorious pun, yet the soubrette is never anything else than an automatic smiling machine. If matters not how dolorous she may be in the family circle;- once she reaches the stage door she must remember the young lady who desired to manage the maypole dances and must cry "I shall be all smiles tonight, mother, lf I am to be queen of the stage," The : suppressed, smile is one of the most useful of- theatrical artifices and one of the most effective when employ ed by a genuine artist. A Washington critic in speaking of Viola Allen's per formance of Viola in "Twelfth Night" remarked upon the exquisite skill of the actress in these scenes with Olivia when the latter tells her love, and the same in those passages with, the duke when he questions Viola regarding her sister.
