By T. It. Bonneville.
Saturd»> * double victory ;>ul the
Colts bark 4n third place. that is it
tied them with the Tars tor that place
and wMh an ccen break of lurk now
they should be aide to stay there. If
the Colts could finish third in the
race they will have done well in con
sideration of the many troubles that
hate followed the club all season.
It was fortunate that they were
able to take the Tars Into camp tn
both names Saturday, since If the
ofsJtors had won both, the locals'
woUiij have been almost hopelegly
down th the second division.
To Deacon Morrissey must go the
r< edit of winning the drat game
though his.syti.es were hardly
needed in the second game for the
reason that Salve settled down after
his one bad inning and the chances
are that the Tats would not hat*
scored again.
Salve gets credit for the victory
and nothing is coming to Morrissey
except such praise ax the fans ahail
give him for hts excellent work. 'The
Colts were ahead when Salte was
taken out and hence the credit for
the \ Ictory goes to the southpaw.
Ed Hooper, the new shortstop se
cured trom the Trenton Club, to fill
natters place uld not arrive here Sat
urday night a* expected and hence
wa* left behind The ctnh did not
leave until Sunday night but Hooper
had not reached here at that time
and Ezekiel was taken along to play
the position.
Neither Owner Bradley nor Man
ager Iaovlor received »m further
word front the player and they do not ,
know why he was delayed The last i
word received war In the form of a
telegram that came Saturday an
nouncing that the player had left
Trenton, He may arrive late Mon
day afternoon and if so will be sent
to Roanoke at om e to join the team.
A letter received from I'harlie
Maker, the shortshop, announces that
he reached home safety Saturday af
ternoon and that he is feeling a* well
as can be expected.
The little player says thai he v. >11
return here in two weeks and place
himself in the Hands nt Dr. \V. t’.
Mathews, the club physician, who w ill
operate on him for appendicitis.
The return of the batting eye of
the Colt* was a welcome sight Sat
urday. and it seemed that they all
came back at the same tint \ Carcc, j
who has seemed to be a mystery 10!
the locals m other game* was rather;
easy, as was Fox and Sheehan.
When the Colts' outfielders -ire hit
ting the team generally wins, and the
outfielders hit the ball Saturday as
they never did before In a double
header. They secured eleven hits in
the two games, and three of thete
were for extra bases.
Not much credit is due the Colt*
for pounding Kong John Fox In the
first Inning of the second game. The
elongated twirlcr had his eye ,n
Jured recently and the optic is in
auch condition that he is not able to
aee well He has not pitched a game
etnee June and was not In his best
fuiiii, bbT fvTTen in form He 1* no
easy mark and may giv* some of hi*
class; exhibitions before ihe season
i* over.
Clarke and Irwin di> kered for unite
a while before, the deal vva* closed
for the youngster Ryan, or Schaub.
the pitcher who recently Joined the
Tarsi Irwin asked Clarke to use
the youngster Friday, and the -Nor
folk manager finally consented,
though he was rather afraid the
Colts would make him look bad and
be did not want to risk losing the
deal with the Vankees' scout.
When Ryan did *o well lrw.a was
•till more anxious to get him and re
opened negotiations Immediately fol
losing in? gunif., nr orrered Clarke
$700. and this was Indignantly re
fused. Hit said' Weil, neter mind,
the drafting wamn will be un In a
few days, and i will get the young
ster for I a on "Sot If 1 know my
self.” returned the wily Clarke 1
"Hi suspend Uy&n and you "ill not
be able to touch him The nation<1
commission ought to gel after eon *
of you wise guy a in the minus
leaguer,” said Irwin Hut he got
down to business and askn' Ctark«
to name a price. The manager ot
the Tars named fl.oOO. Hnd irtvin
told him to wire the president oi
the club to confirm the figures, and
he would in the meantime get au
thority from Stalling* to dose the
deal.
in an hour or so after this conver
sation the paper* had been signed
and Ryan will join the Yanks- * ai
soon as the Virginia ia-ague season
Is over.
Clarke tried to put one over or
Isnuger ijitvlor Saturday, but th<
VMt' leader could not see it. Mar
tin Walsh came to l-awlor and ran;
that he wanted to leave the Tan
and that he thought lie could pur
chase his release cheaply Hr sail
he would like to finish the seasor
with the Colts
A. few minutes later Clarke ant
Watsh called lawlor into the hote
parlor, and , there Walsh was offered
to Richmond for gltttt. 'Walsh wit
be drafted in ten days,'' said Clarke
But Latwlor could not see how th<
Norfolk manager would agree to 1
the pitcher for $100 (now when h<
will bring $500 by drfilt in ten days
i*wtor closed the dickering by ad
vising Clarke that the Colts' twirleri

Skipper Clarke struck a squall in
the good ship Mary Jane Saturday
and shipped so much water over the
lea rail that the worthy craft could
not run her best race
When Quartermasters Vance. Vox
and Sheehan were knocked down In
the scuppers the wheel was left with
out a steady hand and the Colts flash
ed across the line in both races with
a tack or more to spare.
Good stloktvork and • xcellent field
ing won both gable* for the Colt*.
Verbout hsd an off day and was re
lieved by Morrissey In the sixth In
ning after the visitor* had scored one
run In thy fourth and two more in
the fifth Morrissey held them with
out a hit for the. remaining four in
ning*.
The local* took kindly to Vance's
curves and found him for eight hit*,
two of them double*. They scored
three runs In the fourth Inning and
another in the alvth.
Se**»n<l Game Easy.
The Colt* had a still easier time
capturing the second game. N'eltner
Kox nor Sheehan was able to atop
the heavy hitting of the local*, and
they gathered twelve hit* off the two
tw drier*.
Sahe started off strong and the
visitor* did noi get a hit off him until
the fifth inning I'p to this time onlj
three men faced him in each inning
In the fifth, howe'er, a free pass, t
sacrifice, a passed ball and three sin
gle* gave them three runs, and thi!
was more than the Colts had at th«
time.
The Colts scored a run in the Aral
and Kox wa* taken out in the second
and Sheuhan sent in. He allowed a
run In the third, one In the fifth and
two tn the sixth
.Morrissey relieved Salve In the sev
enth, although there seemed no neces
sity for it, as the southpaw was going
well and steadied down after the fifth
He retired the side without troublt

ACCIDENT STOPS
MOISSINT AGAIN
Aviator Forced ro Deeend Before
i i Beaching London and Machine
J j i« Broken.
| LONDON, Aug. 22.—Further mis
j fortunes wore encountered by John B.
, Moissant. the Chicago aviator, to-day
i when for the second time he attempt
i ed to fly from Upchurch to London
_ to complete hie Parte to London flight,
, which we» begun last Tuesday.
Accompanied by Albert Fileux. his
3 112 pound mechanician, and a kitten
4 which bee been named ' Parls-Lon
don." Moissant ascended at Upchurch
at t:2k thle mernlng. In the teeth of
i a forty mile gale. He flew for nearly
an hour, but owing to the violence of
the wind, he could not preserve hie
^ couree and finally alighted at Seven
J Oaks at 5:26, tfter an "8" shaped
,, 1 flight, as far fiom London as he was
i’ when he started.
4 Motssant'a descent was made at ter
I. rills speed, the aeroplane alighting In
!. a plowed field, after narrowing er
j captng a hedge. The propeller, rud
der and wire work were broken and
the wheele were bulked, it waa a
far more serious accident than that
of alst week. Moleeant telegraphed
for epalrere to come at once to fix up
o ' the machine, eo that he can make an
n other altmpt to-morrow.
0 Moleeant showed hlmkelf an avia
n tor of wonderful skill in to-day’s
,, flight, despite hie inexperience. His
0 merit.t monoplane rolled and tipped
(l In the terrific wind and repeatedly
r, dropped for dletencee of from 50 to
0 100 feet. Moleeant Invariably re
o gained control, however, end prevent
_ ! ed serious disaster.
it When' he found his battle against
' the wind futile Moiseant dropped his
; 1 motor and glided to the ground. His
0 descent was far more rapid than he
1 { counted on. and a wrecked machine
o proved the price of hie daring. He
j 1 missed a heavy hedge by leu than ten
0 ; feet. Had he struck It the aeroplane
0 | w ould undoubtedly have been broken
o beyond repair.
0 Sevan Oak# ie twenty-two miles
0 ' southeast.. of London. Moissant aa

Fred Snodgrass, of the New York
| Qtanta, is at present In the van in the
! fight for the major league batting
j honor* and the auto that goaa to the
| premier sticker at the .close of tha
: baseball season*.
But he win have to keep up a merry
, pace to And hla percentage ahead of
that of Tyrus Cobb, of the Detroit
Tigers, at the end of the If Id season.
The speedy outfielder of last year’s
champions of the American league,
Is only 2 points behind, and Is going
along at a much more steady gait
than his rival of the older organisa
tion.
Both Lose Points.
Both of theae lost la percentage
during the past week, the former
slipping from .4 OS to .174, while Cobb
dropped from .371 to .*71. In the
I meantime. Ijsrry Lajete was pulling
* points forward, hie total to date
being HSU.
Hunched behind these three, who
look to he the real contenders, some
Speaker, Collin#, Oldring sad Msgee,
only 10 points separating the four
sluggers. Hans Wagner Is still In
the light, showing a steady gain since
last week, and having a percentage of
.S10.
When it cornea to the Individual
worth to a team, there is no no doubt
that Cobb has proved beyond doubt
the best. He outshines ail others in
both leagues in run getting, not to
mention those he has aaved for his
' team by sensational fielding. He has
i also pilfered more sacks than any
; other big leaguer, having one the
better of Eddie Collins.
No* • Morning Glory.
Snodgrass has shown that ha la no
morning glory. Many wera inoiinsd
to think that he was starting out like
lota of other recruits, who hit well
for a ttttle while and then fade away
But the Clients' outfielder hae proven
that he Is made of better stuff, and
many predict that he will ride around
in a presented automobile this winter,
But he will certainly have to go
i some to beat out our own American
I League sluggers. Cobb and lajela

Cl SEYMOUR MUST
CO TO THE MINORS
Vptsran Outfielder No Longer
Able to Keep I*p the Pace
of the Majors.
NEW YORK. Aug. 22.—A berth
for Cy SevnAOur In the Eastern
league will probably be the road to
retirement for the veteran New York
outfielder, following to-da.v’s an
nouncement by McGraw that Sey
mour la toon to be left out. Several
Eastern League team* have expressed
a desire for the erstwhile slugger
Only the fact that Cy’s underpinning
Is no longer as stable as It once was
prevents him from still being of big
league calibre, accordlhg to New
York fans. He still has the punch.
