The Superbaa won six out of the seven games they played, regaining a strong hold on second place and put ting themselves In a position to dis place the leaders, should tba latter ahow any signs of faltering. The Phillies, however, do not appear to be In a faltering mood. Tbey dropped only one contest during the week, put Ing three to their credit and playing the steady game that haa keot them at the top or near It for the greater part of the season. The Braves are not having a success ful time in working toward the top. Last year at this stage of the race they were In the full stride of their march to a pennant and a world'a champion ship. Now they are hovering around the .500 mark, with no evidence of the climbing power they displayed in 1(14. The American League contest Is an altogether different affair. Long ago It became apparent that only three teams had a chance for the pennant. The games of the past week aeem fairly to have measured the chancea of the trio. The Boatons won seven gsmes and dropped one. Detroit and Chicago each played four games, winning three and losing one each. Tha Red Sox, of course, were playing on their home grounds, but they have proved an ex traordinary good team this year. Kansas City had a disastrous week of It In the Federal League, dropping enough to plunge tha team from first place to fourth during the week end' ng Saturday.

Other wise, he Intimated. Seattle or any of several other cities who have looked with envioua ayes on Portland's rose popularity, would establish great show rose gardens and gradually steal Port land's adored title. "What Portland needa to assert her supremacy aa tha real rose center Is merely a gigantic rose garden." aald Mr. Plerson. Mr. Plerson gave special attention to the rose garden plans suggested by Mr. Currey. "If Portland should take up Mr. Cur rey's plan for a municipal rose gar den," ha ssid. "I shall be pleased to give all possible co-operation in the way ot plans and knowledge from past experience and observation.

FISH CHASES BAIT, DIES Great Pickerel Leaps From AVater to Dock and la Killed. ST. PALL, Aug. 10. This is a fish story. It Is not being told by the luckless angler, which gives color to the asser tion that It's true. The teller Is not a railroad press agent boosting for his Summer resort, but Is a stste official. D. P. Tleraey. Assistsnt State Fores ter, is authority for the yarn. The incidents happened at Lake Itasca while a party of St. Paul people were there. "One of the party was casting from th dock, which Is about eight inches above the water's level," said Mr. Tler ney. "The angler was after base and did not welcome the approach of a big pickerel to his bait, which could be seen In the clesr watsr. Not wanting the pickerel and being desirous of con serving his bait, the fisherman started to reel In his line with all possible speed. "But the rapra aisappearauce ui me niece of fish food only served to spur on the hungry pickerel. The angler reeled harder and the smoke flew from his line aa it whirred on the reel. The flh made the waters boll as it sped after tha bait. 'It was a big one and the morsel evi dently looked good to it. but it looked Just as nice to the fisherman who cher ished that bit or bait. e waa unsel fish In a way. aa he was willing to part with It to soma fine bass. "As the halt neared the dock the fish gained on it. But it waa not quick enough to grab It as tne morsel 101 lowed the line over the edge of the planking. As the big fish saw Its din ner Jump Into the air it made a lunge after it and landed on the dock, where It was killed. Thst is a better way to fish than having them Jump Into the boat. It's more exciting." German Propaganda Suspected. MELBOURNE. Australia, Aug. 16.

A woman's traditional ability to drive a nail straight resulted recently in the dis missal of a charge of larceny lodged against Margaret Evans, of Philadel phia. The complaining witness was James B. Lane, of No. 1210 Poplar street, Philadelphia, chauffeur for John R." K. Scott. He said that he was en tirely "cleaned out" and thought ai first that the Evans woman was the thief. The workmanlike manner in which nails had been driven to keep the win dow of his room open so as to aftord a ready means of exit, however, caused Lane to waver in his belief that Mar garet was guilty. He communicated these doubts to the magistrate and the latter decided upon dismissal of the action. Lane and the woman left the courtroom together.
