Umpire, Hale. \e» Orliau: Montgomery, uo game, NATIONAL LEAGUE In the National League the games Thursday did not effect any great changes. Tihe Giants and the Cubs won a pair of games apiece and the Pirates won the only one they "played. Atlanta Georgian. You can't lose those Giants for they are taking games away from the host of them and are not going to fall in thflr National League standing without letting som 0 other club know they have been in a tight. On Thursday the Giants took a double-header from Boston. Chappelle pitched part of the last game for the Bean Eaters and showed up In good form. He managed to hold the Giants in rheck. but wrs taken 'out of the game In the eighth to nllow Bates to hat The former Southern Leaguer made r good Impression.—Atlanta Journal. McGrow had something to say this morning. It was the first time tie has talked about his chances since the Giants climbed- Into first place. "I can't figure how we can lose the pennant ts the players stay sound and i continue the pace they set In Pits- i bury aid hi "The pitching depart niont is the least worry. People are ' mistaken when they sav the Giants hav.. only two pitchers. Crandall Is ! coming along as fast as Matty did i when Matty startled the baseball pop-j ulace about six years ago.

From this It looks as If MeGraw I propose* to use two pitchers against som„ teams. "The main thing in this fight right i now and that which will win the pen -1 nant ” continued MeGraw, "Is good ' batting and basenmnlng. And In this 1 department | don't think either the 1 Pittsburg* or the Cubs have anything on us. ‘We have been hitting the hall 1 harder than any team in the business j during the past three weeks, and this | means a great deai when you take unto consideration that the Giant* have been pitted against the best pitchers in the National League, "Evnfv man on my team Is hitting the ball.

WILSON imps TO INNGE GULLS The announcement that Wilson Matthews may acquire an interest in the Charleston team has been very generally discussed by the fans of the city, and many opinions have been expressed as to the success of the team with Matthews having the sole responsibility. That there is something in the Matthews talk is evidenced by the fact that the para graph printed in The News and Cour ier was from the Roanoke Times, and as Matthews was in Roanoke at the time the paragraph was printed it is probable that Matthews himself tipped The Times reporter. Further more it has been rumored here for several weeks that Matthews would have a finger in the pie next season. When Matthews managed the Charleston team in 1907, of course, he had no financial responsibility and was given a free hand lo manage the team as he saw fit. That season the team won the pennant. Should Mat thews have a financial Interest in the team next season, he would use the same efforts to put a winning team in the field for obvious reasons. The fans have learned to have a great (leal of confidence in Matthews and would hail his return to Charleston with delight, for it would certainly mean that Charleston would have a first division team in the league.— News and Courier.
