Boston Sweeps the Field For

The Pittsburgs Are Shut Out in the

 Boston, Oct 14.-Jimmy Collins's Bostons. pennant winners of the Amer ican league, now can add to their lau- rels the title of worlds champions, for yesterday they yanquished their Pitts burg rivals of the National league for the fifth time, the victory carrying with it undisputed possession of the worlds championship. The game was the eighth of the series, and in conse- uuence Of Boston's triumph, was the last.
 Nearly 7,5o0 persons hraved cold east wind and threatening skies to see the teams clash, and the demonstra- tion which followed the striking out or Hans Wagner in the ninth inning, leaving Pittsburg without run, Wnlle Boston had three to its credit, equalea any scene that ever followed pig college football battle. The frenzled crowd yelling and cheering like mad, poured out of the grand stand ana bleachers. swept with an irreslsn Die rush on the victorious Boston and DICK | ing them up bodily, carried them around the field. while the band that was in attendance at every game played Hail to the Chief" The Star Snangled Banner and other airs.

MOTORING WOMEN ARE PLAIN.
Fad of the Present Has a Tendency to Destroy Ones Beauty-Makes
 the Features Coarse.

For some time past it has been noticed that the motoring women are all plain in appearance, and those who were once classed among the beauties, or were at least attractive, have become coarse of feature and many of them positively homely. Motoring in itself, however, is not a beauty destroyer; 1t is the ex- cess of the pastime that is pernicious. Moderate motoring, by improving health and the capacity for sleep, enhances woman's charm, but the hardened tour ist type of 150 miles day tans and coarsens her skin, and gets crow's feet around her eyes; her face loses it's soft womanly contour and gains hardness and determination. Of course the same is true of many outdoor sports indulged in to excess, but no other sport possesses such talismans against beauty loss as lie in mask and goggles. Some devoted motorians fly in the face of Providence by refusing to wear even 8 veil, and their punishment in loss of loveliness is out of all proportion to their sins and negligence of automobile appliances for preserving beauty.

Elevator for Supreme Court.

There is perhaps no elevator in the world more exclusive than that provided at the capitol at Washington, D. C., for the supreme court of the United States. That elevator can be used by exactly Il people, and no one else would for a mo- ment consider entering it except as the guest of one of these Il privileged gen tlemen. The fortunate Il are the nine justices of the United States supreme court, the clerk and the marshal of the court The elevator go&, from the ground floor of the capitol to the main floor, on which is located the supreme court of the United States. It is small elevator, so that, with it's conductor, three portly forms of justices of the supreme court of the United States would fill it. It is one of the very latest designs of electric elevators and is finished in magnificent style.

Not all the elves that sport and throng This night do wickedly misguide Poor souls, and work despite and wrong; A pixie silver winged does ride The singing breezes all night long And halts where sornber sorrows btde World sicl1ened men he touches; To. They grasp the boon their pitiIess Fate has withheld; their dead souls glow With fires of heaven born eagerness, And in a dawn of dreams they know All fame and praise and ripe success. Iris HaIlow eve, when comes the gentle
 sprite,
 And heavy hearts rest deep, rest deep to-
 night
 And loveless maids that pine alone, Pale buds, whom love shall never seek, Throb with a pure delight unknown. For strong, for tender voices speak My sweet, they whisper, and my own, And life was dear where life was bleak. And little hapless children, born
 To sin and foul faced poverty, Dream of a balIny rosy morn
 And run and wanton far and free Through waving grass and rustling corn And wonder that such joy can be. Iris Hallow eve, when comes the kindly
 sprite.

CITY AMArnuR NOTES.

H1lls are the favorites for the first game.
 The Pastimes say that if they can secure a pitcher who will come within the league rules they will trim the Hills and settle the champ pionshfp next Sunday.
 There ds no choice between the Brooklyns and Ehe North Ends for the second game Both are strong in all departments, particularly in the box. That should be a corkdng good game.
 There were rumors last night that the Pastimes were going bo lay down to the Hills, but this the Pastjnaas in- dignantly deny. They will play fast CT than they ever did to win. The odds last night, however, were two to one on the Hills.
 Whichever team wins the penmant of the three mentioned will know there has been battle. It mas been a hard season and the pitchers have been on edge for several weeks. They will be happy when Bhe season is over mo matter which team wins. %

CITY AMATEUR LEAGUE.
Season May End and May Not Next
 Sunday


 There was breezy session of the managers of the City Adnaheur league last evening and 1t was all caused by reason of the likelihood of three teams being tfedsfor first place. It was pro posed to have the Washington HILLS and the PaIstimes play in the morn ing, and then have the Hills, Brook lyns and North Ends draw lots to see which tean would have to play the extra game on the saW-on. Thas Manager Kelly refused to do, as if be was not fortunate in the drawing be might have bo play three games that one day to win out Manager Mad den of the Brook1yns and Manager Thompson at first refused to play a game next Sunday because that would give the Hills the advantage and would make the winner of the Brook lyn and North End game play one more game than the Hills. Then it was proposed to have the HdIls and Pastimes play off their game on Thursday afternoon. This Manager Kelly would not agree to because he could not get his men off. It was then suggested that the Brooklyns and the North Ends play off during the week, and this also met with objec- tions from Manager Thompson be cause he could not get his mem off only on Saturday and then not this week.
 There seemed to be no way out of the dilemma and there was some talk of dropping the season right now and let the cup go over until next season This met with opposition from all sides and numerous other propositions were mentioned. but all were turned down by one or more of the Hhree man agers interested It was after Ii o'clock and Ghe n1atter was no nearer being straightened out when Manager Madden made the following proposi tion: The Washington Hills and the Pastimes will play off their game ir the morning and the Brooklyns and the North Ends will play in the after. noon. If the Washington Hills win the game in the morning that team wtll play the winner of the game iI the afternoon on the following Sun day. This proposition gives the Hflls ! the advantage of playing one game l less than the other teams, but as il was the only way out of the dilemma Manager Thompson of H1he North Ends accepted it and Manager Kelly of the Hills naturally was agreeable as f gave him a good aduantage Tn cast | the Hills are beaten in the mourning by the Pastirnes. the final game of ths season will be the one in the after noon between the Brooklyns and ths North Ends. x The first game will star. at Il o'clock and the second one a i 2 80 sharp in the afternoon. This vii practically end the season in th4 league.

 Boston, Oct 14.-Jin1n1y Gardner out pointed and outfought Kid Gritfo in every way at the Central club Monday might where hey boxed twelve rounds, and at the end Gardiner received a well-earned decision. The Lowell lad forced unabters from the start and had Griffo on the floor for the count of nine before they had gone a minute. GTiffo had hardly regained his feet be- fore Gardiner landed hard on his jaw and again sent him to the mat for the count By clever stalling GTiffo man aged to last. For the next five rounds Grfffo stalled and hugged at every op- poutul1ity and smo6aered in a style that own applause. Tn the seventh round Gardner had GItffo nearly all in, but tired from his own exertions. The eighth, ninth and tenth rounds were repetftions of the earlter rounds, Griffo stalEng off defeat The final two rounds were entirely Garlner's, wllo book desperate chances to win fn- side the limit. but GEiffo's tactics pre- vailed, and Gardner could not complete the intended work.

Hint to Doctors.

A writer in German medical periodi- cal suggests that doctors would not be disturbed at night nearly so often if they insisted on immediate payment for their services. The poor, who often do not pay their bills, are the most prone to send for the doctor at night, in most cases when there is no immediate need of his presence.-N. Y. Post.
