It was predicted then that the Tiger acgregailon. as it was constituted then, would last for many years Hut today, of that hunch of twenty five athletes who grabbed off the 1907 pennant for Detroit only two men re main In a Tiger unlforra—Cobb anl Crawford. Htunage, the eateher. who Joined them m 1908, still la on the roster, and so are Morlarlty and Rush, who Joined a year later. These five are all that remain* of the hundred players who have worn the Detroit regalia -these five alone have surviv ed the crowd that showed Its heels to the other American leaguers a half dozen year* ago. Wonderful Cubs. Who hasn't heard of the wonderful Cob machine -the baseball outfit that always will be regarded a* one oT tha greatest and moat wonderful In base ball history? In 1900, 1907, ISfflS and 1910 they landed at the crest of the National la-ague—and landed there without much exertion. Except In 1908 In those days It looked as If that grand old machine was good for six to ten years more. But what has happened? The machine has been smashed, Its main cogs removed and of the wonderful club that hung up so many reecords in 1908, 1907 and 1908 only one man remain* —Frank Schulte, the veteran outllcldcr. And It wouldn't he surprising If he was shunted off to the minor* before the end of the year. Four Seatons Ago. fn 1910—less than four seasons ago the machine, for the most part, was intact. And then disintegration began. This, aided by the experimenting of one Charles Webb Murphy, wrecked the works, and of that 1910 crew only Heinie Zimmerman and Schulte still wear the Cub uniforms. The Brooklyn club won the Na tional League pennant in 1910, sur prising as It may seem. The team was made up of some wonderful ball players but Time has collected its i toll, and every man who was on that team at that time has retired from baseball The Pittsburgh Pirates gathered to gether a great club In 1901, 1902 and 1903. and annexed three pennants In a row. OT the mighty gang that la i bored in those days for the greater , honor and glory of Pittsburgh only one man still lingers in the lineup. | And »his name is Wagner. Fred Clarke, manager of the club now-, was a player In those days, but he plays no longer. Age has stiffened his joints and dimmed his wonderful bat ting orb. Only Two. Only Mathewson and Wlltse, pitch ers. remain of the collection of ball players that brought the pennant to New York in 1904 and 1905. There i are only four men on the Pirates' pay : roll today who were there in 1909, when the Pittsburghers nabbed the National league bunting and also the world championship. Those men are Pitcher Adams, Catcher Gibson, Old Man Wagned and ‘Ham" Hyatt, utility. There Is not one man in the Red So\ lineup today who was with the aggregation that won the pennant in 1903. All the stars of those days have gone either to the discard, to the minors or to their graves E 1 Walsh Is the sole survivor of the world champion White Sox team of 1 1908, while Bender and Plank, and Harry Davis, who no longer plays, but acts ns scout and coach, are the re mains of the At hi* tic team that breez ed along to a world championship in 1905. In 1912, when the Giants won the National League pennant and forced the Red Sox to go eight games to win the world honors. McGrnw had a team that looked as if it would hold together Tor many years Fast Combination. It was a fast combination and made up principally of youth. Yet today more than half of the men who grab bed off a share of the Giants spoils are wearing Giant uniforms no lon ger. Only 11 men remain of the 25 who assisted McGraw In harpooning the National league bunting. Not a man remains either In the big league or in a White Sox uniform |of the squad that won the 1900 prn- I nsnt for Chicago. Jimmy Callahan and Clark Griffith, the atar twlrler* of the 1902 pennant-winning White Sox, alone remain In the major*. Hut only as managers. (Irltllth never plays, but Callahan ocaslonally dona a uniform and show* the youth* of I this day and age what their papa* j used to do. Plank, Bender and Davis are the only ones left of the 1902 Athletics. All the others have gone their sepa rate ways snd landed, at last, In ob scurity. Not one man remain* In big league conn any of the 1904 pennant winning Red Sox. Where Do They Go? Where do they go? Sometime* from on* major league club to another. Sometime* directly to the minors. But sooner or later they find their way to the smaller league, and, a* ags creeps on they go down the baseball ladder month after month, year nfter year, until they have reached the bottom. And then they drop off Hnd are heard of no more In big leaguu circles, until the Grim Reaper comes along and claims them as his toll Some there are who played on those championship clubs who still are In the majors, hut with different clubs, to whom they were traded or sold. And a few others still linger in the big tent as managers, coaches and scouts. The lure of the gamo is strong fo r them, and no matter in what ca •pacitv it is they still like to linger each spring and summer where they can hear the crash of the bat against the hall; where they can hear the throng jump to Its feet and shriek its plaudits. Even though the cheers are not for them, as they were in the days of old, the cheers still ring as music in their ears, and bring back to them so vividly the memories of the days when they were young and gerabbed into themselves the major portion of the spotlight—and the Idolizing of the fans. . 2 Brothers Charged With Fraud; Totals $200,000 Ojae Was Sentenced to a Term of Imprisonment For Trying To Swindle An American Paris Frauds involving $200,000 are alleged against two brother*. Rob ert and Pierre Lnmen, belonging to a wealthy French family, well-known in Parisian society. The young men are in custody on charges of obtaining valuables and money hy false pretenses and also for attempting to extort money by threats. Robert, some time ago, was sentenc ed to a term of Imprisonment for at tempting to swindle an American out of $500,000, He appealed against the sentence, and the appeal is still un decided. The prisoners’ father a few years ago left each of them $500,000, but this they quickly dissipated in a life of pleasure and gambling. They kept two beautiful suites of apartments in a fashionable part of Paris, and during the season gambled for very high stakes. All their fortune was dissipated within two years, and since then the young men are alleged to have obtain ed valuable jewelry and furniture and sold it to meet gambling debts. One complaint against them re lates to a $5,000 pearl necklace. They protest their innocence of the fraud charges. Sold and Guaranteed by Firet-Class Dealere in Augusta and Vicinity. 3244.

Pari* —Only a nobleman can eat In a Riviera hotel of the first rank *t anything like a reasonable price A certain grand duke entered a cele brated restaurant to the accompani ment of profound bows from three maltrps d'hote] and said, "I want a luncheon for |1.25." No one in the resturant had a better luncheon than the grand duke. But an appeal to patriotism will sometimes reduce a hill, as the typi cal victim Is an American or an Eng lishman. A man well known In the French social world took a party of eight to luncheon at Nice the other dav. The bill amounted to *175. including $7 for potatoes. He said to the pro prietor, "It may be all very well to give a foreign visitor such a hill but I am a Frenchman." The proprietor bowed. “How much would you pay?" "Not more than $100,” wag the re ply, and the proprietor said, "It will be sufficient." A Budapest millionaire lunched in a famous restaurant at Monte Carlo where two years ago he lunched every day for ten weeks. He was charged sl2 for two portions of ca viare. He has fled from the Riviera. A London visitor was asked to pay $7.25 for six sandwiches and 79 cent* for a bottle of beer during carnival time. A woman taking tea at a fash ionable hotel In Montq Carlo asked for a saucer and gave her lap-dog two spoonfuls of milk from her own milk jug. The waiter marked down four cents for the dog’s drink. There can be no doubt that the Riviera is feeling the competition of the Swiss winter sports in the earlier part of the year and just now the tours to Egypt. Ceylon and even India that many English families are mak ing. In spite of the competing at tractions the Riviera charges do not change.
