BY NORTHWESTERN
Several piles were pulled out and
planks torn up at the City wharf
early Wednesday morning when the

a shipment of lumber. A strong tide
was running as the big ship nosed
Up to the face of the dock and in- j
stead of sliding in alongside of thej
face of the dock as was the inten-1
tlon, too much momentum aided by I
the current swung the stern of thej
ship around near the ferry float andj
against the wharf with considerable j
force.
The Northwestern discharged 2000
feet of lumber which will be used to!

JOHN M’GRAW HAS
EQUALLED RECORD
OF FAMOUS ANSON
NEW YORK CITY, Aug. 31—John
McGraw hag just entered his twenty
second year as manager of the New
York National League ball team.
Twenty-one years ago the 28th of
July he took the job, playing with1
the team at third base. McGraw has'
now equaled the record of “Pop"
Anson, who managed the Chicago Na
tional League team twenty-one years.
When “Jawn" reported in New
York to take the job as pilot for
the Giants, 10,000 fans were on
hand to give him and the new ,
players he brought from Baltimore ’
a royal welcome. For three years:
the New York team had been in I
the “also ran” class and the fans
were clamoring for a change. They
got it.
Won Pennant in 1904
When the agressive McGraw took
the management the team was in last
place, and finished in last place,
which was ir. 1002. In 1903 the
Giants were contenders, and finished
in second place. In 1904 McGraw led
the Giants to a pennant—the first
since 18S9.
In 1905 Mac again won the pen
nant, and, to add luster to the
achievement, the champions of the
senior circuit won the world's cham
pionship by decisively defeating the
Athletics, champions of the Ameri
can League, in one of the most
thrilling contests ever staged in base
ball.
From these years the successes ofj
John McGraw have been phenomenal,
and his record has dimmed the vre-;
markable one left by Captain Ansiin, j
who led the Chicago -Nationals for;
twenty-one years.
During twenty-ore years of leader !
ship McGraw’s teams have won first i
place eight times, finished in second j
place eight times, third place once,
and in fourth position twice. Only'
one season did a team of his fall \
below fourth place.
The salary paid McGraw in the
first three years of management was j
$10,000 a year. For further induce
ments McGraw was given full power
to buy and sell players, and unlimited
money to use in giving New York
a real baseball club. McGraw brought,
with him from Baltimore such star
players as Joe McGinnity, Roger!
Brcsnahan and McGann. With these |
three players, Frank Bowerman.j
Christy Mathewson, Gilbert and
Browne, the great leader built a i
wonderful team.

Margaret Merle Works
in Stock During Sum
mer So She’ll Sing
Better in Winter
Margaret Merle has a voca
tion and an avocation. Winters
she prefers the vocation, which
is ballad singing. Summers she
joins a stock company and be
gins her avocation, which is
acting.
“No, it’s not that I’m particu
larly energetic,” she denied, smil
ing. “As a matter of fact, I
can't keep up my vocation with
out my avocation. Because to
day, if you’ll notice, songs are
no longer sung, they’re acted.
Or at least they must be acted
as well as sung if they’re to get
over.
“The modern audience wants mo
tion, zip, something doing every
single minute, and the singer
who doesn’t give it will soon find
herself off the boards. Take
this cunning thing I’m rehears
ing now, ‘I’ll Hop, Skip and
Jump Into My Mammy’s Arms!’
I sing and suit the action to the
words. It never fails to get the
house. And I learned the secret
during my stock-playing sum
mers.”
