Ing. Tho Ited 801 are surprising tho
entire league by their HUddwi ahuwlng
of strength, and Hush's pitching
against the World's Champions this
season has been one of the biggest of
all surprises. He zaema to hav some
thing on Howland's team, which Is
hitting far below Its true form,
WHILE qulto as much and perhaps
more, rain fell In Brooklyn than
was fpllled on the big .town, tho
Brooklyn and Pittsburgh teams man
aged to get In a corking good came,
In which Brooklyn won I to 0, and
won In spite of the fact that they
made only two hits while tho I'lrntts
uncorked nine. The secret of It Is
that they managed to gel a two-bac-ger
behind a pass and a hit by pitched
ball, thus undoing all the good wotk
of Cooper, who Is having hard luck
with his pitching.
Brooklyn is playing much better
bull tban tho standing of the cluh
would Indicate and while the team
may never get anyivhoro It Is bound
to escape from tho cellar. Any team
that can stand tho hard knocks and
discouragements that the Huperbas
have had this season and still Keep ,
playing the game deserves a lot of '
limine. In fact, tho Brooklyns are
fighting harder Just now than they
have been at any stage of the season
and giving all comers a hard battlo.
Any team that keeps hustling and
righting against odds gota more ad
miration than does a stronger team
that falls Into tho careloss habits of
the stars.
Brooklyn has n. big attraction for
tho next few days, as it will give tho
fans tbo first real chatico to sec
Mathewson's Cincinnati Ueds In ac
tion. Among the wise followers of
the game and among many of tho
players and managers there Is a be
lief that Matty's team has rcnlly a
better chance for the pennant than
fclthrr tho Giants or tho Cubs on proa
ent form. The trouble with tho Hods
items to bj that thoy do not forco
the attack against tho weaker teams
with the energy and determination
that the Giants do, and thoy lose
games that ought to bo rather easy
for them through this lack of vicious
attack. The- Beds, on their present

Dodgers Capture Final Battle
of Series With Pirates,
2 to 0.
Buck Wheat's sensational running
catch In the fourth Inning saved the
tlnal g.ime of tho series with the
Pittsburgh Pirates for tho ltoblns
at Kbbcts Kleld. Later on In the
nftcrnoon Burleigh Grimes put his
shoulder.i behind a perfectly timed
swing nnd hnmmcrcd out a gamo
winning double. As tho Cardinals
and Giants did not play, the trans
pontlno host galnod a point or two In
their struggle for seventh placo. The
score was 2 to 0.
Wheat ran at least a mile to gather
in Schmidt's savage liner to left cen
tre with one hand. That wallop was
billed and tlckoled for the- outer
r.iolic of Flatbush. and with Citt-
Ishaw racing for home, might have

An Escape From a Sand Trap at Englewood That Placed
McLean With the Leaders in an International Match.
'O be badly bunkered near u grten
tournutnent Is about as moan
golfer. Thlrt wna my mlsfortuno In the International matches at
KngU'ivood last season. When getting ready to tco up on tho eighteenth
hole some one In tl.c gallery ran up nnd told mn that a regulation 3 on
the final hole would placo mo even with Wllllo McFiirlnno and George
Kothingham, tbo leaders.
Through overnuxloty to get squarely to tho green my tco shot fell
,i little short and dropped Into a deep Band trup Just to tho left of tho
green. The eighteenth green nt Knglcwood m well elevated nnd this pjr
ttcilar rand trap i.i a mean one. It Ih bo steep that a shot must be
aeeuratcly played to clear thu edge, and If played too strongly tho ball
will Jump across the green and Into another sand doprcsslon to tho real
uf thu green.
My ball had dropped In the sand pit close to tho side nearest the
green. To play ou safely mcunt thnt tho ball had to bo shot nlmo.it
Htn-lpht up In the air. Taking a heavy niblick, I scooped up under thn
b.t'l and sent it w.'. over the sldn of the trap. For a second I feared tho
ball was going too far. but tho back spin on It saved tho shot. Tho ball
Kt.'PPid within two feet of tho phi. 1 barely had to tap tho ball for tli"
putt and got tho necessary 8, which placed mo on even footing with
th leaders.
This niblick Hhot, I believe, was tho most unusual I have ever seen
on any course

Tho vot .rowing Instructor made up

ho didn't think ho was earning his
money. IIh was bring paid a big

to the fact that thorn was n lack '

Jim la not going to accept a sin
