Boston.—The Boston Red Sox climb
ed to the baseball pinnacle. In a ten
inning contest and conquest they beat
the New York Giants in the eighth
game by a score of 3 to 2 and became
the champions of Christendom. The
championship became theirs in the
most teeming and spectacular of all
world's series. It included eight
games, was won by four games to
three, took in one ten inning game
and one eleven inning tie. It was a
series that brings renown to the vic
tor and the satisfaction to the van
quished of having made a splendid
fight, a share of glory as well as satis
faction when the losing team suc
cumbs after the count was three games
to one against it at one time and
live of the eight games took place in
the other team's stronghold.
The name of Fred Snodgrass is on
the lips of the baseball world, for al
most alone and unaided he gave the
championship of the world to the Bos- 1
ton Red Sox after the great Christy
Mathewson had taken the measure of
both Hugh Bedient and Joe Wood, in
one of the bitterest and hardest fought
teu-inning battles that was ever con
tested on any diamond.
When "Red" Murray and Fred Mer
kle collaborated on a run, with a dou- j
ble and a single off Joe Wood in the
tenth inning, breaking a tie which j
had existed since the seventh frame,
the champinoship appeared, to have
been won by the Giants. With a shred
of hope remaining, Jake Stall] sent
Clyde Kngle to bat for Wood in the
last of the tenth. Engle raised a long
high fly to centre, which Snodgrass
got under in plenty of time to make
an easy catch, but he allowed the ball
to pop out of his hands for his first
error in the series.
Engle got to second on the muff and
was nearly doubled at the midway
when Snodgrass tried to make up for
his previous lapse by capturing Hoop
er's drive in splendid fashion. For a
moment attev wavered and passed

chance. Speaker popped up the first
ball pitched for a foul three feet from
first base. It was an easy catch for
Merkle, but Chef Meyers came rushing
up the line and frightened Fred off.
The "fans" were yelling so madly at
the time that neither player could
hear Matty's frantic cries for Merkle
to take the ball. It fell to the ground
between them, and another golden op
portunity was lost.
Tris pounded the next one pitched
for a clean single to right, scoring En
gle and tieing the game. Yerkes took
third on the play to catch Engle,
| while Speaker went to second. Matty
I purposely passed Lewis, filling the
J bases, and the infield was drawn in
I for a play to the plate, which was New
J lork's only chance.
Gardiner, however, was good for a
long fly to Devore. Josh made a fine
| catch and put all the strength of his
i sturdy right arm into a despairing
, throw home. It was a long heave, and
| the ball struck the infield, dribbling
j with slow and agonizing bounces to
| Meyers, while Yerkes slid home with
the run which decided the game and
! the championship. The Red Sox had
counted twice on one hit.

I inning that gave the World's title to
j the Red Sox:

It looked all over but the shouting
when Murray finally lifted the ball
into the eft field seats for two bases.
Along came Alerkle with a crashing
single that got away from Speaker,
and Murray raced home, putting the
Giants one run ahead.
The Giants were backed up by a
thousand rabid New York fans, many'
of whom came over on the night trains
after McGraw's men had tied up the !

tlons of (he club owners and National
Commission. The series last year be
tween the Giants and the Athletics
ended in six games, when the attend
ance was 179,851 and the receipts
$342,364.50.
According to the division of re
ceipts as announced bv the National
Commission, 10 per cent, of the gross
receipts are set apart for the National
Commission, 60 per cent, of the net
receipts of the first, four games go to
the players. This amount is subdivid
ed, 60 per cent, going to the winning •
club and 40 to the losing. The re-j
mainder of the money is equally divid- i
ed between the owners of the two I
clubs.
Snodgrass's muff of Engle's fly cost 1
each New York player $1,283, as this
was the difference between the win
ners' and the losers' end of the play
ers' purse. The players' share for the
first four games only was $147,571. Oi
this amount each of the twenty-two
Red Sox players receives $4,024.68,
while twenty-three New York players
each receive $2,566.46. The National
Commission receives $49,083.60 for its
services, which will more than covor
the cost of running the commission
until next year's series.
The series represented a small for
tune for the owners of the two clubs.
After deducting the National Conimls- i
sion's and players' share $294,177.70 j
remained for the clubs. This repre- j
sented for each club more money than
was taken in by some of the major |
league clubs for the entire season of j
154 games, iyid was more than suffi- j
cient to pay the club salaries and j
ground expenses for the year.
! Charley Herzog, third baseman of ;
the Giants, led the regulars of both j
teams at bat in the World's Series. I
j Herzog in the eight games batted .400. I
I Next to Herzog among the regulars |
was Chief Meyers, who hit .358. Ked
Murray was in the .300 class, with an
; average of .523. Herzog made twelve
hits and Meyers and Murray each
| made ten.
i Of the Red Sox regulars Speaker
; was the only man to hit .300, and he
I just achieved that mark. Speaker
i made nine hits in the eight games.
, Ho&per and Stahl also made nine hits
1 apiece, but Hooper's average was .290
1 and Stahl's was .281.
| The figures show that the Giants
outbatted the Red SOK, 74 hits to 60
the averages being .270 to .225. The
I Giants also outscored the Bostons, 31
runs to 25, and stole twelve bases to
j six for the American Leaguers.
Only in fielding the Red Sox excel
the Giants. The errors were 17 for
the Giants to 14 for the Red Sox, the
averages being: Boston, .960; New
York, .951.
Herzog was the only Giant regular
j intieluer wlio went through the series
without making a misplay.
"But for Snodgrass's unfortunate
muff," saiil President Lynch of tht
National League, "the Giants would
have won the title. It was hard lines
for Christy -Vlathewson, who pitched
superbly."
It was a foregone conclusion that
Mathewson would be selected to do the
box work, but McGraw told Marquard
and Tesreau to keep warming up ail

Daddy's Whack-Whack.
On the occasion of her last visit to
a certain Baltimore household a young
I matron of that city found a little
; friend in tears.
"What the matter with little Ma-
I rie?" she asked endeavoring to con
sole the weeping child.
"'Daddy/ has just given mo whack
j whack," the youngster replied be
tween sobs.
"Thoughtless daddy!" exclaimed the
young woman, repressing a smile.
"And where did he whack-whack lit
.tie Marie?"
"On the back of my tummy," was
the answer.
% Absorbed.
A college professor noted for his
concentration of thought, returned
home from a scientific meeting one
i niglit. still pondering deeply upon the
subject that had been discussed. As
he entered his room he heard a noise |
i that seemed to come from under the
bed.
I "Is there someone there?" he asked
absently.
"No, professor." answered the In- !
trader, who knew his peculiarities.
"That's strange," muttered the pro- j
fessor. "I was almost sure I heard
■omeone under the bed."

That was a very wise Cambridge :
student of whom the London story j
tellers were talking some time ago.
j One of his college friends finding him- I
I self without funds, went to this Sol- 1

j him in bed. Seizing him by the shoul- !
der, he shook him.
"I say," he said, "are you asleep?"
"Why do you ask?" queried the

"I want to borrow a sovereign."
"Yes," said the other, turning over
and closing his eyes. "I'm asleep."
