After that. Mathewson settled down and allowed during the remainder of the game only seven scattered hits. In the eleventh inning lie retired (he first three batters who faced him. show ing that he is still "there." Mathew son was given poor support at criti cal moments, however, and New York's five errors tell the story of the three additional tallies which lloston registered after the first in ning. Speaker Triples Timely. The Giants offset their poor field ing with a game tip-hil! battle at the hat. Left-hander Collins held them to Iwo runs until tho eighth when Ihey fell on his delivery and pounded nut three runs, giving tliein a lead of one. which lloston tied In its half of the Inning.

OSEBURG NATAT The Park Commission question has been settled by a vote of the people. It is up to the people to select a PARK COMMISSION. It is to be hoped that this Commission will selected in a fair, square way, so all the interests of Roseburg will be given an equal share. Alexander shall, the coming week, explain to the citizens what a good thing a PUBLIC NATATORIUM will be for the city. The way to get at it in a practical way, a!l the citizens need to do is to read this space. It is a well known fact, that for the last year Rose burg as a city has commenced to lose some of its snap. The public spirit has commenced to rui low, and it is a matter of fact, that as soon as a city com mences to stand still in place of going ahead it will go back. Fellow citizens, we have got to find out in a practical way, that it is up to ourselves as citizens to make a large city. Three years ago Alexander offered the City Council of Roseburg 27 acres for a Park, and for his good offer he got THE MERRY HA! HA! Yesterday Alexander got the satisfaction of seeing that his work had some result. A good thing is bound to come sooner or later, but don't let us get all the good things later. LIFE IS TOO SHORT TO BE A MOSSBACK Rnsehurfi can set a Natatorium as well as a Park Commission. ALEXANDER that netted results. Shortstop Flet cher, the team's weakest hitter, was waved to the bench by McGraw and Schaeffer was substituted In the eleventh. In place of Fletcher In the tenth, McGraw sent McCormlck, his pinch hitter, to the bat and McCof mlck sacrificed, bringing home Merkle, who had connected with one of Hall's shoots for three bases. Mathewson appears to be In good shape after his long struggle and fit for another contest. Marquard looks like McG raw's twirler for tomorrow. Who Stahl will place on tho pitching mound is mere guesswork. Just be fore the game was called, Boston fans followed the example of the New York fans toward Doyle In New York yesterday by presenting Stahl with an automobile. A sign on the out field fence announced that Thomas W. Lawson would give $1000 to the player smashing a hit Into the space advertising his new book, "System." The weather was cold and there was a high wind. Story of tlio Hits. In the first inning. Hooper led off with a single. Speaker bunted safe ty, after Yerkes hud been given his base on balls. With the bases thus full. Hooper was caught off third. Lewis hit a grounder and Y'erkes scored,. Then Stahl singled, sending Sneaker nnd Lewis home. I New York's firBt run was scored In the second Inning by Ilerzog, who I tripled and ran home when a cannon shot liner from Myers' bat struck I Third Unscman Gardner In the face, ! knocking him flat. New York's sec ond run caino in tho fourth and was also due to a three-base lilt. It was ! inado by Murray, who Bcorcd on Her zog's sacrifice. A three-base hit again figured in the scoring, when, in the fifth Inning, Yerkes registered the big drive, sending home Hooper, who had preceded him with a single. In the eighth New York drove Col lins out of the box, after Lewis muffed Snodgrass' fly. Doylo singled to center and was forced out at sec- j ond on Decker's hit to Wagner. Snod- grass took third on the play. Mur ray doubled into the left field bleach-j ers, scoring Snodgrass and putting , Becker on third. Merkle fouled out j I to Carrignn. Herzog then duplicated , Murray's double to left, sending Mur ray and Becker to tho plate. In Boston's half of the inning.

Reulbach, of the Chicago Nation als, came the nearest to It, with .826 in 1906, while Mathewson's best was made In 1904, at .814. Mathewson, however, has twice won more than 34 victories in a season. He took 35 games in 1904 and 37 ln 1908. In his long career Mathewson has collected 313 victories against 142 defeats, an average of .668. MOVUMKXT FOR MOOSU ill ll,ll(i IS ADVAXCHI).
