Those orphaned "White Sox gave Cleveland a handicap of three runs in the first Inning: yesterday and beat the Napa to he wire by a score of 7 to 6 vith Venn drees pitching. This Is considerable accomplishment with the mercury boiling- in the shade and eiziling in the sun, taking into consideration the season's dope which makes thia the fourth victory the Sox have

won from the Xaps in twelve game and their first from Gregg on the home lot. The Callahans never would have accomplished the feat if the Naps had not played as if they were wearing twelve-ounce gloves some of the time. Six errors, half of them by Lajoie. the most reliabel of them all, helped quite a bit, but the Sox concentrated their attack on Gregg so well that even the best of support could not have held them below four tallies. Walsh was assigned the task of opposing the Cleveland son of Gibeah and was in the hole to the extent of three runs before the first half Inning was over. A pass, a bobble by Chase, a triple and a single, made it look as If the Naps were going to have a merry day of it. M0RDECA1 BROWN HURLS IN OLD FORM Cincinnati, O., June 27. Mordeeal Brown, the lion hearted hurler who was turned loose by the Cubs, had the .satisfaction of giving them a neat and precise trimming yesterday. It was the first real game Brownie has pitched against his former mates, and by the same liberal use of the old hook curve, the splendid control and keen mind, he came out victorious by a - count of 5 to 3. There was no fluke about Brown's . victory, either. With the kind of support Brownie had in the olden days up In Chicago, he would have shut out his opponents yc.terday. Apparently he had as much "stuff" on the ball as ever. But there were mistakes made behind Brown that furnished openings ! for runs. Altogether eight base hits were charged against him, but at least two of them were scratches. In six 'of the nine rounds Brown set the Chlcagoans down with no trouble whatever. HORSES FILLING BARNS AT MINERAL SPRINGS TRACK Everything at Mineral Springs race course at Porter, Ind., is in readiness for the horses and the crowds. Richard Dwyer, starter and superintendent of the course, has returned from a visIt to Kentucky and was in Chicago yesterday. He reported that the track was in condition for record-breaklns performances when the thoroughbreds lre set down for fast time. A number of horses are already on the grounds, several strings having arrived yesterday. Among those who came down with their strings were William Milkel, with Jack Witt. Electric and others; Dr. H. E. Davis, who brought Jim Ray, Higher Lrp, Goleonda, Doris Ward and Lady Hughes and William Zepp, with Vigorous and some others. Word was received that N. B. Davis was on the way with Sylvestrls.

WHITE-BRITTON BOUT 20 ROUNDS New Orleans, La.,, June 27.
