WILDNESS OF LEWIS.
One Cause For the Loss of the Third
Game by Beston.

Boston, oct. THE last ball game or
che season and the third in the Temple
cup series was as dull and uninterestins
q contest as has been seen here for many
davs The Baltimores won with ridic-
ulous ease and closed their engagement
here by practically exhausting the
pitching talent OF the Boston nine. In
the three games. all four OF the new
champions crack twirlers have taken
their turn in receiving the severest KIND
of a pounding. and for the third success
siye game the home team was obliged 10
make n change before the game was
over. Lewis. however. was taken out
because of his wildness rather than be-
cause OF the orioles hard hitting, al
though when he did put them over the
hits came I'm as usual. Klobedanz, VINO
took his place. did trine better. but In
the eighth was pounded hard. shgh'
shower came up just as the Bostons
were ending their half, and the game
was called. the score revertlng TO the
seventh and cutting four runs and hve
hits for the visitors on the other hand,
Hoffer did not belle his name, for his
magic kept the Boston hits judiciousY
scattered and while somewhat Wild at
times he was not hit to any extent ex-
cept in the third.
Lewis started in by giving McCraw
his base, hut pop flies shut the visitors
out without a run. The home team
looked like winners. for Hamilton be-
gan with a hit, but was caught stealing
second. II was in the second that Lewis
began 20 throw the balls off one side. and
with three bases on balls and three hits.
four runs came in. and II was only by
fine fielding that IL stopped right there.
In the third, however, Lewis went ut
terly TO pieces. and after four more runs
,, We're m made de, with two 0X'' h'oOedan"
The home team scored their only runs
IN their half Of this inning. principally
by punching hits andla couple of bases
on balls. The batting looked encourag-
ing. and there seemed prospect for an
other double figure game. 1t all ended,
however, right there as far as the 8os-
tons were concerned. Barring one in
the sixth and two in the seventh, moth
ing like safe drive was seen.
In the meantime the Baltimores were
having trouble with "Kloby's" shoots,
and for four innings the runs and hits
were stopped. II was growing dark
fast when the eighth started, but this did
not hinder the visitors from finding the
hall, and again there was a galaxy OF
safe ones, together with a wo-bagger,
all netting four more runs.
Lake was the first out for the Bos-
tons. and Klobedanz followed with an
other fly 10 right. but just as Hamilton
came to the bat n sudden shower came
up. and the game was called. so that the
score reverted 20 the seventh and, in
stead of being IL 10 3. was only to 3.
The two teams were banquetted last
night at Faneuil hall and today will play

UNAUTHORIZED PROCEEDING.
New York. oct. 7.-Fitzsimmons and

anybody has been authorized to act in
their behalf in arranging fresh
match with Corbett a letter TO The
Evening World. signed by Julian,
contains no intmation that anything
like match with Corbett Is acceptable
upon any terms. Twelve reasons" are

fortunes. Nothing is said i'm relation 20
Fitz' permanent retirement. and the
public may recall having heard the rea-
sons before. at one time or another.
since the affair at Carson city.
Fitzsimmons is something OF a letter
writer himself and only a few days ago
announced that he had promised his
wife before entering the ring at Carson
that he would never fight again. It's a
pretty little sentimental utterance
dressed up In a style that suggests a
suspicion that Fitzsimmons has an ac-
complished secretary TO put his thoughts

Truly Wonderful Pig.

Pennsylvania boasts of a wonderful
blind pig. 1t was born blind and a.
the tender age of three months was
sold to neighboring farmer. who took
it home in his wagon. The road was
not only crooked, but was cut by sew
eral cross roads, and it passed through
village with a dozen cross streets, the
entire distance being two miles beyond
the village. The pig was turned into n
small lot, and the third day afterward
the little blind fellow was back with
its former owner. There was no other
way for the pig returning home than
by following the road over which il
had been carried in the box. Still. as
dumb animals perform these feats by
instinct. blind pig would be on an
equal footing with any other.

PET RAT ACTS MEAN.
Bit Its Tiny Mistress, Who Had to BE
Taken to the Hospital.

Children sometimes adopt strange
animals for pets. In Philadelphia two
little girls can be seen almost every
day playing with a pair of tiny ALI
gators, and a neighbor of theirs, three
year-old Violet Ricketts,, of 1928 Sum-
mer street, took a great fancy to rat.
Last week she was carried to the Hahne-
mann hospital suffering intensely from
a bite in the hand from the animal.
The rodent which caused the child's
injuries belongs to the neXt-door neigh
Dor of the Ricketts,, and was captured
in trap several years ago and tanned.
1t is in the habit of running about the
neighborhood. and for long time has
been a frequent visitor at the Ricketts,
house.
The child and the rat became great
friends. The other afternoon the lit
tie girl was feeding it when a big dog
belonging to her father came in the
room. The rat became angry and
jumped at the baby, catching the little
ones hand with its teeth. The child's
cries brought her mother, who tried to
set the dog on the rat, but the dog re-
fused to interfere, as the pair had been
long friends.
The rat then turned upon Mrs. Rick
etts, who had a hard time TO prevent it
biting her. She finally threw a piece of
wood at the little animal, and he ran
through a small hole in the kitchen by
which it had been accustomed to 60 and
come to the adjoining house. The child
was taken to the hospital, and the physi-
clans found it necessary to take five
stitches in the wound.-Chicago Chron.

we're discarded except electricity. This
;ystem was adopted. and for the pas:
wo years three electric locomotives,
he largest ever built, have handled the
ntire freight service of this great trunk
inc through the tunnel. They would
probably have been put into passenger
.ervice before this, but the receivers
decided for various reasons to postpone
heir employment in the haulage of pas
enger trains until the completion of
heir new station. This was opened
ecently and the passenger, as well as
he freight, traffic is now being hand led
~ the electric locomotives.
The electric locomotives are the
largest of their type ever built. They
consist of two trucks, each truck hav-
ing two aXles and four wheels. Each
axle carries a motor-the most power
full railway motor ever designed, having
a power of 36O horse power. This gives
10 the locomotives four motors, with
total pulling capacity of LAO horse
power. The motors are of pyramidal
shape and have six poles and six sets
of brushes. They stand about five fee.
high and are gearless, that is, the arma-
lures are not fixed to the aXles, but are
built up on a sleeve through which the
axle runs. The armature is part of the
motor which turns, and each end of it
is fitted with large cast iron star. The

KITTEN AND BEAR.

Pussy Frightened Bruin Up a Tree
and Kept Him There.
Chris Burns, the veteran first ser
geant of troop D, has a kitten which
during the summer camping of the
troop at the Lower Geyser basin made
her home within the sergeant's tent.
Here, curled up on pair of army blan-
kets, she defied the world in general
and dogs in particular. When the lat
ter approached she would elevate every
bristle on her brave little back, her
eyes would glow like live Goals and her
tail would swell up threateningly. If
the dogs approached too near. she would
hiss and exhibit the usual signs of hos
tility until the intruders had vanished
from her neighborhood.
One day, when the camp was bathed
in sunshine and every soldier in camp
felt lazy, an inquisitive black bear came
down the mountain side and, whether
because he was in search of adventure
or because attracted by a savory smell
from the cooks fire, began to walk
about among the white tents of the
cavalry command.
O Suddenly the kitten caught sight of
him. Dogs by the score she had seen,

ished for the Crime.
Did you ever see an elephant
whipped? 1 don't suppose you would
ever forget it if you did. They fire.
quently do it in India, because ele-
plants are very cbstreperous at times.
Recently an elephant, Abdul, was
convicted by court-martial for killing
his keeper, and sentenced to so lashes
and two years imprisonment.
Two elephants led Abdul to an open
space, and in the presence of the whole
battery the punishment began. The
culprit trumpeted in fear, and made
an unearthly noise.
There were IA elephants on one side,
and the officers and men of the battery
on the other three. In the center of this
hollow square stood Lalla (No. u, the
hogger, and the prisoner. The latter
was chained by the four legs to as many
heavy iron pegs, and could not move.
Fastened to Lalla's trunk was an i'm
mense cable chain. When all was ready
the major gave the word, and down
came the chain with a resounding
whack. Abdul roared for all he was
worth. Fifty times was the operation
repeated, and then Abdul was taken to
a compound, where he was to remain
a prisoner for two years.-Answers.
