Last week saw no change in the re- lative positions in the two leagues, Brooklyn and New York--the two best teams "on paper"---are making good on the field. Four out of seven, with a tie game, was the result of the Dodgers' week's work, while the Yanks were nabbing five out of seven with their crippled line-up. Still coming up, with a steady rush, which spells a warning for any leader who fails to watch its step, the Boston Red Sox, who were To- ronto's guests Monday, threw back the Indians, and are now second, only a few points from the peak. The only other winning feature was Philadelphia's victory over Cleve- land, their first in ten games, and their only one. The National scramble is tighter, as the first division teams slipped slightly, New York falling from the select four, and St. Louis and Cin- cinnati playing better ball "than usual. Two teams will go into the fray this week materially strengthened and with better pennant chances. The Giants, with Herzog putting pep. into the team and plugging an in-| field gap, are getting set to overcome the Polo Ground jinx. In Wade Killifer they have probably the best utility outfielder in the league. The Yankees, too, will be strengthened when Fritz Maizel, with In the Northern League the Win- nipeg team leads, but the teanr that is third is Superior. i Detroit fans are so elated over the brilliant work of Ty Cobb that they are calling him a second Sisler. Infiglder King, of the Athletics, is a son of "Silver" King, once a fam- ous pitcher for 'the St. Louis Browns under C, W. Comiskey. Abraham Lincoln once advised against the practice of swapping horses in mid-stream, but Abraham Lincoln never owned stock in the Cincinnati Ball Club, Just why the umpires allow Ty Cobb greater privileges on the ball field than they do others is not plain. It would seem that, though granting that. Cobb is the greatest player that | the game has ever produced, he should be made to live up to the rules; for the games in the American League are already too long drawn out as it is.--Washington Star. (Christy Matthewson, baseball's greatest pitcher, has given up pitch- Ing at last, and has assumed the ma- nagerial duties of the Cincinnati baseball team.--News item.) You're leaving, Christy Mathewson, You're going with the Reds. At last, they say, you've reached the ay : : That every pitcher dreads.

ELIMINATE SELLING CLAUSE | Jockey Club Takes Action | in Regard to Present Rule. The Hamilton Jockey Club, feeling that the present selling race rule is being abused, has decided to elimi-| nate the selling clause at their com- ing meeting. Secretary Louden has sent out this notice to horsemen: "In all unclosed races to be run dur- ing this meeting (except handicaps), whereby it is a condition of the race| that the winner shall be sold at auc-| tion, the selling clause is hereby elim-| inated, and all starting in the race,| including the winner, shall be liable to be claimed for its entered selling price, plus the value of the purse to the winner."

Funny, isn't it? | STILL UNDEFEATED. | 1 Canadian Baseball Team In England Sustains Record. | The Astorias, a team composed of! Canadians from the staff of the Con-| naught Hospital at Taplow, sustained | their undefeated record in the mili-| tary baseball league, by easily de- feating the London Americans in a game played in London on Saturday by a one-sided score. The Astorias lead the six club league with ten games won and one lost. The Americans have won nine, Paycord eight, Epson seven, Bushey Park four and Bearwood four. McGill To Have Sport.

Have Come to Front. The rush of both Canadian teams to the front in the International league, has been one of the season's sensations. Both the Leafs and the Royals started winning at the same time, and for the last three weeks they have been winning steadily. Minnesota Bars Welsh.

Kirk, PIRATES AFTER BASHANG Who Played With the Ottawa Team Last Summer, Another member of last season's Ottawa Canadian League champions is due for the big show according to the latest report. The player in question is Al Bashang, who played left field for Shag's team last sea- son. Baghang has been playing for South Bend, of the Central League, this season, and going like a house afire. He has been hitting hard and often, and is the same Al on the bases. Pittsburg is said to be after clever outfielder. Bashang, True was very light. Shag, however, made a real ball player of him Just as he did other players. The Bowling Contests. Two bowling games were played at Queen's Bowling Green on Tuesday night. W. G.

Roger Bresnahan is fair enough to admit that he has been fooled by his ex-Feds. He says they are not fast enough for the American Association, and that he is going to rebuild his team. Maybe he is, but where is he going to get ball players now? To- ledo fans are howling about the work being done by the ancient Perring, Shaw, Rawlings and Evans, Mains, who was rated a star in the Fed.
