It la a noteworthy fact in addition that Chance's men won this year's pen ant With greater ease, in spite of a constantly patched up team, than thev did last year's banner with ranks intact for the greater part of the rrce. Somo o'f this contradiction may be explained by the poorer showing made by the Pittsburg and New York .clubs, which were the only contend ers the Cubs have luul in either sea son. The real explanation, however, lies in the fact that the two times champions are not, and never have een. denendent on their "regulars to wi. In Tact, it Is difficult to de termine from a glance .it the recorjs what Cubs are entitled to the title "regulars." So prominent have been the substitutes in this vem-'s rnen tliey havci almost earned the title, and Hofman alone hns played In more panics than at least four "reg ulars." Not All Luck for Chance. Last season it was true Manager Chanc" enioyod an unusual immunity from the troubles which arise from constant changes in the makeup of his team. For that tcason he wa3 considered a lurkv man. That luck, however, prevented the nnblic discov ering how well fortified Manager Chance reallv was against the disabl ing effect of iniuries nml sickness. Not nn'il this season did the reserve strength of the Cub outfit show it self. In these modern days no team can expect to go through a six months' season on the diamond with eight good players and a stpff of nitebcro and win a pennant. The incrpnseil speed of the gnmo, the necessity of faking longer chnncs, bncnuse of tho decreased kI of the score hns In creased the labilities, and the num ber of accident'' to plnvprs is greater It is true, as claimed bv old t'mers, the voungor generation of nlavers will not tni-r tbo (,'nnci of n"rma nentlv dlsnbllnT tho-ipelvps bv re maining in the camp despite Injuria that soi"e of the old tim"rs would take None blames them for that, for the vounger players lnvo lear"d from oUsor'.,'tlon tint th p"bllc soon forgets the veterans who have retired rrid found the wnrlil (Inns not thi"k it owes them a living in the end. Tho nlnver must look out for Ms own future. Tie is doi1: o to day, more than the ninv"' "T Mvonty years aco ever thought of doln-;. Must Have Stars on Rem'h. Consequent'' the team which is not well fortified must either be lucky or It cannot win in n long cam paign. Tlmro must be stars on thp bench at the start as w,ell as on the dinmqnd, for none knows when or how many stars there will be in the liosnftal when the fight becomes hot test. No manager ever put this theorv to hotter use than has Mana ger Chnnco and the 1007 pennant is largely duo to that fact. Compare this year with Inst, it is found that Hofmnn nnrtlcinated in fifty-nine games in 1900, several of that numbr nfter the pennant was cinched. This year he has nlayed in mora than twice thnt number, ni'l nlways becauso it was necessary for Mm to renlaco a regular. Last year Oesslrtr, the other substitute, played In onlv twenty-two games, and over half of these after the pennant was nron. This year Randall, who re mained a Cub only a part of the Rea son, played in moro games than Gps sler dFd all Inst venr. Howard, who succeeded Randall in tho role of sec ond utility man, has played in two thirds of a season ten moro games than Oessler did In a whole season. Wisdom in Securing Recruits. Tho Cubs won their 1900 pennant Ira mnruln of twenty games, and one would have thought Manager Chance and President Murphv would 7w satisfied to stand pat and repat with tho same team. Instead they were planning nil Inst fall nnd winter for tho noxt enmnnhrn. Half a dozen recruits were added to tho cham pions bv spring. None of these men was able to beat a veteran out of his Job, and only Tilnlno Durbln of the recruits made n permanent nlneo for jhlmself with the team. That was Hun to tho veterans retaining their skill moro thnn to lack of abltitv in tlio recruits In some cases, and does not decrease the credit duo tho Cub owner for willingness to spend money Jfherallv in tho nnntin gamble for young players, when his team was nn jtTmost crtaln two time pennant winner with recruiting. Nor does It 7"sson tho value of the forpsleht dls jifavpd fiv tho Cub leader In advising a fiidiclous expenditure on tlm clmneo of securing nddltlonnl strength, which a shorter sighted man would Jiavo considered snnorflnous.

And when thnt frpdn was made Cbaneo desired tbo nfendiness of a voungstor In tho first- flcht ho hnd mn.lo for a ring as man Manager Chance they possessed tho ability required by a pennant win ning team. With Howard and Hof man on dpmand for every emergency, tho Cubs have been hotter protected than any other team, for the reason both of them are versatile and can play the infield or outfield at com mand. Moreover, both are skilled and crafty enough to fill any regu lar's place without seriously weaken ing that position. The maehinelike precision of tho teamwork may bo disturbed to an extent, but not its in herent strength. Weak Spots Aie Costly. Just as a single weak girder or brace will cause a bridge to fall tin der the added strain put upon the rest, no matter how strong, so a sin gle weak spot will break down the strongest baseball team under the ex tra burden of protecting that spot, especially whdn tho opposing team is aiming every possible attack at that spot. There is no better example of this than the Cleveland club. The number and size of the weak spots which would havo shown up' In the Cub outfit this year but for the protection provided against them would surprise tho fan who ha3 for gotten them. Chance's men started their battle without Tinker at short and played without him from the opening day until May 14 nearly five weeks, at a time when the Giants were fighting the Cubs hardest. Hut because Hofman jumped in and filled Hie gap successfully it was not no ticed. Tinker recovered from his oupration sufficiently to be able to day bv the middle of May, nnd on tho 17th of that month Scbulte was compelled to lay off to undergo an operation. He was out of the game until July 1, over six weeks of the time the Cubs were gaining the lead which made their journey easy at the finish. But because Hofman "'as able to fill thnt gap most of the time as successfully as he did the one at short, it passed, unnoticed by the fans When Tinker again was compelled to lay off for over a fort ni"ht in June and Randall was nressed ino Schulte's nlice, the dif ference was noted, and for that rea son Manager Chance busied himself o dig uii a better utility man in Howard. llofmnu Out of dime. In July, when the Crbs were prac tically intnet for their longest con--ineiitlve period, Hofman himself was 'nlurnrt nnd comnplled to nurse a str.sined ankle. Tin inmncjp th" reg ulars v prp out of the hosnltil nt tho M?nn hf-3 inlurv was not notlod. With the hardest part of the race over.juMapnger Chance began to rest "" IfiF-August and try to fight off an "taeljaof grin or rheumatism which 'ill tiihlP(l him rnnnt of th" year, hut bv t'ipt ttmn ho had TTmvnrd In -oqnvyo for first base-end the team wont along at its ntoodv elin, with 'wo substitutes in the game at the same time. None of the rgninrs I'i1 cleaned injury of greater or less siousness In one respect the Cubs havo fared better than in 1900, and that is in having ICling available tor more games this year than last. He has been Injured tills year, but not for so long a time as last. In the pitching department Chance never has had tho use of his com plete staff at any one time. In the spring months Brown, Overall, Lund gren, and Pfiester were doing the heavy work, with Taylor and Fraser to fall back upon and Reulbach lack ing control. During the hot weather Brown, Overall and Pfiester wero do ing most of the pitching, with Tav lor filling in occasionally and Fraser Injured. Thon Brown's arm began bothering him and ho has pitched tew games in tho last six weeks, leaving tho burden of retaining the leau already won upon his pals. Only Overall and Pfiester have been available at all times for steady work. No Weak Plnccs Appear. Nevertheless, tho Cubs never ap peared to havo a weak spot, and only the close follower of their career knew what they wero contending with and realized the value of their reserve strength. And for that abil ity to present a strong front at all times, by keeping strong players In reserve, a largo snare or tho credit Is duo Presidont Murphy for the wise toresiglit which hns provided nearly as strong men for probahlo bench duty as for regular work on tho field. -Chicago Tribune.

Sweeney, ncuner oi wuum uuu pun ny a marvelous piece of surgery Miss Dot Stephens of London music hall fame will be able to appear on tho stage again, in splto of the fact that In October last sho had both her feet cut off through falling out of a train. At a cost ot $1,000 sho has been fitted with a pair of artificial feet which are not only so wonder fully made as to entirely escape de tection, but which enables MlssSto phens to walk a couplo of miles with out fatigue and without tho aid of a stick. M t This remarkable surgical font re calls tho frequent remark, "Every thing Is posslblo in surgery nowa days." A prisoner bail sovored his wind plpo with a. razor. Thanks, however, to a romnrkablo piece of surgery on tho part of two doctors, tho wound wns stitched up and tho man's life saved. Even this astounding feat, how- over, has boon surpassed. Two years ago a tailor was stabbed through tho heart while quarreling ovor a game of cards. Ho arrived nt tho hospital In n stato of collapse, and tho doc tors decided that tho only chance of saving his life was to stitch up tho wound in tho heart. The chest nnu to bo opened, three ribs cut through, and part of tho breast bono removed before tho vital organ could bo reached, nfter which threo Btltches plratlon was then resorted to, and two months later tho tailor was dis charged from tho hospital as cured, although ho was obliged to wear a shield of black leather nnd alumi num over his chest to prevent any injury to the wound. Apart, however, from tho fact of stitching up wounded hearts, it will probably astonish many people to learn that it is by no means a raro occurrence for surgeons to mako henrts beat again after they havo ap parently stopped. An operation for cancer wns being performed, and un der tho Influence of the anesthetic tho patient's heart suddenly ceased to beat. In an Instant tho surgeon's hand wns thrust Inside the body and ho commenced pinching tho heart, which began to beat again, thus sav ing tho patient's life. Quite recontly, nt a meeting held nt nalttmoro, a surgeon explained how ho grafted a girl's llttlo finger on her faco where her nose should havo been, and then amputated It. The patient Is now a very presontablo looking child. New- Hats Line of Winter Pattern Just Received.
