ulonK the baseball fronts after thtei
WeekH of desperate ttlf?f;iHK 't the
latch slrlDKH of first division jiusim.
The inid-seosmj brush of IMIIh
btirK and New York In tin National
wus one of two mild flurrbH lait
week. Htiln tnterveneti twice

advantaKe of u five-inne K'-rbs i

t'orsairs and five out of seven In
the week's pluy the champions
were able to keep close to the Pi-
rat o craft, only one ku'H" fihort of
first plucH,
Tho hist second rlpplo was tossed
up by HI. J.oiils teams, which set
sail for third place in both circuits.
The steady pull of the t'ardlna!s In
the National under the crippled
home run leader, (topers Monisby.
carried the Hub to the door of the
unsteady Hohlns, who tripped five
times In six starts.
IfrmvitH Make Progress,
Tho 1 1 row ns made even more
marked progress In the American,
clipping New York and Washing
ton for six triumphs to climb with
in a game, and a half of fourth
place, Detroit, mid to within two
games of third place, Chicago. Only
a. continuation of the Tigers' smart
cllj ut the expense of Itostoti and
Philadelphia kepi the Sisler out of
(he first division.
The lagging Athletics suffered at
tho hnnds of steady pitching by the
Indians and retired from the shad
ow of the Cleveland wtgwitms only
to face, a battery of Detroit hurling
arms w hich Vhud furnl.shed sensa
tional performances In abundance
against the Red Sox. l-'lrst place
Washington eonesquently found 11
necessary to break even during the
week to become more I irmly forti
fied ut the pinnacle.
Chicago teums put in a losing
woek, in spile of the fact that tb
White Hot gave tint Hi nators sul'li-
cicnt trouble to cheek the Wusbtng
ton romp. The Cubs made a bid
for better days by turning over to
tho veteran shortstop Kabblt .Mar-
nnvllel, the reins formerly held by
Kcd Kllllfer.
Tho race In the National brought
ho change's In the positions of the
eltfht clubs.. The Huston team for
the first time In six w eks got ar
ound on the winning Hide of the
week's play wilh a half dozen wins
In ,10 starts.

Credit For Winning Of
Pennant Due Gossett
Manager of Pirate Nine
Given Much Praise for
Indefatigable Efforts
During Season.
(lly ScM)p)
For tho first time in years and
years I. a Grande has a champion-
Miup uaHeoan learn, a icain innti
was so full of fight nnd ahllitv that '
It. copped ihe gonfalon two weeks
before the last game of the season.
And credit for Die Pirates' ron
slHtent winning must go to Tom
(les.sett,, playing mannger of the
local d In mon il era. Tom, starting
off the season as captain and first
basenmn, kept the team together
while other HI tie Mountain league
nines were going through uph 'av
als. Later he played, third base
and then, when Hurrls French re-i
signed s manager, took over the'
reins. When Harth was Injured,
Tom stepped in and caught In his
place for one game until another
atelier could lie procured and yes
terday, faced with what was ex
pected to tie the hardest gamn of
tho season, had his playem tuned
up to such n pitch that a 12 to 0
victory was registered.
Tom Is one of the best hall play-
crs and best executive bends that
I.a Orunde lias ever had at Its base
ball helm. And his popularity has
grown by leupM anil bounds, testify
ing as to his other qualities both
on and off the baseball field.
A word of pral Im certainly tine
Itnck llelu for bis game yesterday.
Itiick, who never lias hit very
strongly, llt'lcil the ball over deep
right field fence yesterday with
two men on. Hidc that ho wni
so hit stingy that only two Ha tier
men reached first on singles,
One of the hoys thc.t has prog
ressed steadily under Oossett'a
management Is Te.x Knight. At the
first of the season he was only fulr
but as week after week . passed,
under Oossett'a glooming Tex

wouiii oe u credit io any semi-pro

The entire personnel of the
Pirate team is deserving of prals",
not only for playing ability but for
gentlemanly conduct, on and off
the field. "A mighty nice, clean
bunch of ballplayer," hi been
Grande more Oinn
One of the most regrettable
things that happened during "ie
season was Hie Injuring of Al
Itarth, stm league catcher, ami one
of the most popular Pirates. It is
gratifying that lie Is rertvering
nicely. Itesponses to the bciielil
fund for him have been more Hutu
generous.
