GIANT'S CLIMB IS FEATURE OF WEEK; CLEVELAND COMING
NEW TORK, Aug. 2. The games in the National League during the past week brought the teams more closely bunched, the standing tonight showing the first and last teams separated by only 162 points. Brooklyn continues to set the pace, but the Robins lead was cut down in the series with Cincinnati, the latter winning three of four games. A victory by Cincinnati over New York In the first of their series Saturday put the Reds on even terms with Brooklyn, but yesterday Brooklyn defeated St. Louis and again took the lead as the Giants beat out the Reds in a sensational ninth-inning rally. McGrawmen Coming Fast.
McGraw's team made the moBt impressive record in the league during the week, having an unbroken string
of victories until the world s champ-1 ions were encountered. Tho Giants are in third place and with a little better pitching may catch up with the two leaders. Pittsburgh is giving the Giants a battle for third place, while Chicago Is not far behind the pair. St Louis did not win a game last week. Boston and Philadelphia bring up the rear of the second division. Cleveland followers were encouraged by the way the Spokmen performed last week, not that it was unusual for Speaker's men to win a majority of their games, but because of the improved pitching. There was only one game In which it was necessary to send in relief pitchers and that was the only contest Cleveland lost. Caldwell Wins Second. Caldwell started that game, but two days later went the full route to a victory. Cove'eskie and Morton each pitched two wins and Bagby one.
There was no change in the relative positions of the loaders as a result of yesterday's games. Cleveland bowing to Washington, while New York lost to Chicago. The result of tho latter game, however, puts Chicago within a few points of the Yankees. Hugsrins's men got a bad start on the road, dropping the series to St. Louis. The club continues to have weak and unsteady pitching and consequently the good stick work of the nlayers Is wasted in many games. Chicago continued its steady work during the week while Washington and St. Louis nre flsrhting for fourth place. The Boston Red Sox fell behind during Hie week and Detroit and Philadelphia continued at their visual gait.

MURRETTE. "There appears to be a popular misconception of vampires, or rather a very decided conception on the part of the public that does not begin to cover nor classify the various species," said Miss Constance Talmadge in a recent interview. The topic under discussion was Connies latest First National attraction, "The Perfect Woman," which began at the Murrette theatre Sunday. Miss Talmadge believes that the art of vamping is by no means confined to the ladies, but that men, as a rule, are far more adept in the gentle practice, than the fair sex. Miss Talmadge said smilingly: "In writing the story
.600 ! of "The Perfect Woman," John Emer-

son and Anito Loos hit upon a big psychological truth. The story Is built around a young girl who is madly
practically throws - herself at him, without as much as a how-do-you-do by way of recognition. Now the law ot skilled vampires is "indifference" an inviting personal lty, with Just the slightest touch of frigidity. That is where popular conception takes a mighty tumble. Opinion based on heresay has it that vam plres have a certain inveigling system I believe that is all wrong. The girl who builds a glacial wall around herself is going to be friend less, while, on the other hand. If she but displays the least sign of inveigling motives she is going to find her self as friendless as Miss Eskimo. MURRAY Corinne Griffith has a splendid sup
porting company for "Bab's Candidate," which will be shown at the Murray theater on Monday. George Fawcett, a star on the legitimate stage, and who directed Miss Griffith in "Deadline at Eleven," has returned to the screen to assume the role of Senator Marvin, one of the leading characters. Another important role is
played by Charles Abbe, also well-
known on the stage, but somewhat of : a newcomer to the screen, and still j another character is played by Harry ! A. Fisher, for more than 30 years associated with Harrigan and Hart. Web-, ster Campbell plays opposite Miss Griffith. Others in the cast include i William Holden, Ray Applegate, Blanche Davenport and Walter Morton. In addition there are a score or more quaint country characters, only
bits, but which add greatly to the charm of the picture. "Bab's Candidate" was written by Forrest Crissey and was one of tho prize winners in an "O. Henry Contest," conducted by the Society of Arts and Sciences, with the object of couraging young authors to follow the style of the famous writer of short stories. It has the whimsical O. Henry touch and was a great success when published in Harper's Magazine. Luclen Hubbard made the scenario. It is a Vitagraph production.
