Oty. how, la tha exan-.pi w had but the marks have been ganed In a con

piaff of pttcbera, at the head of wnlcn w ! co;ts. Ha baa negotiated nine blnglea la

Tet It la having a bard Lnw staying n
first division. Bo It goes. I: 1 our f.rm
be lef that la many cases p: icier do not
get enough actual Work to ktp then la
the beat of form; that tha average team
carries too many pitcher. This may b
explained on tha theory mora In the nu
i Jore than tha minora of tha fierce rivalry'
' to get and bold promising material. Why
should pitchers work only a third or fourth
j aa tcueh today aa they d d year ago? Of
- course no ona would want p.tthers to do
nowaday what Bad bourne dd when he
pitched twenty-four suecesalv games But
jfU might be noted that ha won tbra all.
fOt an to do what Bobby Caruthsrs and
Pave rout did tha laat year they were
with tba St. Louis Browne alternate a.mst
day la aad day out between tha box and
right field. But they held their team la
first place and made it the "four-time win
sera. and each men batted away up above

many waya It la not a swift. He hat the
benefit of tha foul sti.ks ra'a and the four
trail system. wMoh hla f?rfa;hr" did
not hare. And you can seldom find a
pitobar wbo evea thinks that ha ought to
bat, let alone bit la tha .100 olaae. A minor
taague team, la our Judgment, abould never
carry mora than five pitchers, aad one of
them should be a good uCUtr man. Tuet
Jpanoea ot minor league baa bail do not
usury carrying from six to. e.ght pitchers.
nor a maa over tire. The Idea, that a
pitcher cannot work In more thaa oca game
or-twe at tha meat a week la rat. Take
tha beet pitchers In tha majors, they are
tha onea who do tha moot work. Look at
tha record of Miner Brown, of Chrlrty
afathrwaon. of Ed TTalsh and for years
back of old Cy Toung.

If there wrfs any doubt of tha Cuba want
ing to win another pennant It must have
been dispelled by that wholesale Cub-Uoa-
yn deal, whereby each team let go at four
players. The sensational feature or tne
rade, of course, was that It "Involved
ohnny Kline, who had bean the Cuba
mainstay behind tha bat since 190a, next
to Chance being the oldest man la point
of service on the team. But It Is not
wtrange that Murphy wanted to trade KUng

distinctly understood that thla la hla lat
year In tha gama. In addition to thla he
had let down In hla work. Tet there 1s
many a doubt that Kllng la either all In
or will tnrft after thla year. There has
been cad feeling between him and tha own
ership since 190k tha year he played hooky
and the Cube lost tha pennant. Tet the
deal was a shock to sentiment, for it seems
unnatural to think of tha Cuba without
their Klin. Probe. My there la aomethtnf

of eourae. disar pointing, like the ose be
fore it, or.ly not aa much so. They won
this laet time five out of thirteen game.
Ttut they should get dowa to a winning
vtrenk now. for they hare pa ovr tB
rr , of their hard times, so far aa road
-irk goea. They hava tha majority of the
J-wsmrna- gamea at home. Wa aia atlll of
tVe belief that with another strong pltoher
or two thla team would aocn go Into first
division, and may anyway. There hava been
many he disappointments In tha box this
year The very men of whom most was
raturally expected. Jwdgng from their part
records hava dona leaat.
' Detroit Is doing exactly what ' ood
many old feno expected It to di as soon aa
vje first keen edge wore off Its young
Bywmi tn the box. Ita slump- la not.
rfore aurprlslng. Not emly waa the
I m playing ahead of Ha elaas. but the
thletle bridegrooms found It very difficult
to get well atarted. Of course, tha Tigers
are not naoeaearily out of tha race yet;
they era not evea out of first plaoa, but
hey ara getting out rapidly.
Russell Tford. the young Highlander, did
a thing to Ty Cobb and Bam Crawford
which few pitchers could ever hope to do. It
waa la tha ninth, with two TlgTa on base
and only no eul. when Ford fanned both
these titanic alutgers. Hla rltchlne keeps
him at the top and Is helping vastly to
rejuvenate New Tork.
There newer waa a prettier race than the
one now on between New Tork and Chi
cago. Tbe Cubs, aa usual, are bad'y crip
pled, having been deprived most of the
season of Evers' and Chance's sen-loss
and may be most of tbe remainder. But tbey
are atlll the old warriora. fighting every
Inch of the ill.
The vagaries of ba.aa ball were shown
when Topeka took three successive games
from fUux City, a pernaot contender, ard
light on the heels of that Omaha cum?
a'ong and took three straight from To
peka. If that Invasion cornea next year a lot of
ex-majors will ftrd themeelvea back in the
big company. For No 1 ball alaj'era are
none too p'enitful today, and they are not
made overnight.

first feat will contain plenty of rivalry as
the boys acroas tha waves ara very anxious
to put ths damper on the Advos and aa the

Ona of our bands la on the water wagon
for today, via., tha Col urn bias. They bad an
argument booked with tha Hotlys for thla
afternoon, but after laat Sunday's wrangle
tha gang looked fit for Bralley'a ambulance
and their condition didn't Improve much
during tha laat week, consequently said
debate waa cancelled. Miller, their sturdy
backstop, has his shoulder thrown out He
expects It back soon. No, tha above tsnt
exactly correct, but according to tha daps

On tha turf at beautiful Fort Omaha this
afternoon a couple of fracases worth going

game. Spalding vs. Longs; second game.
Americana vs. Baura Iron Company. The
plumbers, or rather the Long family, aay
they will make the Spaldtngs hunt their
holea. but the namesakes of ons of our
leading base balls turn out a different
brand of Junk. Managers Starr and Btacey
haven't decided who will oppose each
other on tbe rubber leaving this part of
the program to be answered Immediately
before the caller shouts the old familiar
melody. ' Play ball." Next we deal with
tha Americans and Baum Iron company
outfits Both of them have been hitting
the high places, especially the Americans,
so a good' debate la anticipated. Up to
data the Americana have been making tha
majority of tbe team waits to their music,
and If they can only Blip on over oa tha
Btorx Triumphs when they meet at Rourks
park next month their ambitions will be
about satisfied. Prof. .Dyck will heave the
onions for the Americans today and Parish
