BOSTON AMERICANS
TOOK SEVENTH GAME
Now Lead for Worlds Championship
BY -Four Games to Three for
Pittsburg.

Pittsburg, Pa. Oct. 1.-THE Boston
Americans made it three straight
against the PittsbuTg Nationals by win
ming yesterdays game by score of z to 3.
As the games now stand Boston is in the
lead for the worlds championship. having
won four games to three for the National
league leaders. Yesterdays game was a
heartbreaker for the Pittsburg contingent
to lose as it was the last game to be played
on the local diamond. Now that the Bos-
tons have the upper hands and are playing
elegant bali it win be diflcult for the Ma
tional leaguers to win out
Both teams left for Boston where the
eighth game Of the series Is scheduled for
today, and the concluding game will be
played on Thursday
In yesterdays game Pittsburg banked
on Philippe, the wonderful pitcher, who
had already done more than his share by
winning three games from Boston, and It
was bitter disappointment for the fans
to see their idol 90 down to defeat. While
Philippe pitched good game he was
beaten out by the redoubtable "Cy1
Young the veteran and victor of countless
hard-fought contests. Aided by heavy
stick work by his team mates Young was
able to pull out decidedly easy victory
The visitors landed on Phillippe's curves
for no less than five three-base hits into
the immense crowd OF people which lined
the field, while the Pittsburgs secured only
two.
The work Of Parent and Ferris for Bos-
| ton was remarkable, while Ritchey and
Wagner got back with the fans with their
usual brilliant infeld work. A crowd of
more than 1900 people, the biggest Of
the series in Pittsburg, saw the game,
only few of whom we're roOters for Bos-
ton. But those few made up for the lack
of numbers in noise.
Boston went atPhilippe at the start pill.
ing up two scores In the first inning. They
made two ia the fourth and two In the
siAth and ended up their scoring IN the
eighth with one score. Pittsburgh Tailed
once in each Of the fourth, sixth and
ninth, and gave the Bostons big scari
also in the ninth with some heavy hitting.
But superb work by the visitors dashed
the hopes of the home rooters to thi
ground and the immense crowd slowll
filed out Of the gates.

We have heard no end of talk
about tendencies in connection with

that tendencies are toward the higher

make a bad mistake about the tend
ency to grasp power over ones fell
lows and to imagine that the natural
inclination in that direction Is never
to be interfered with. There have
been teHencies Of that kind since the
world began. There has been a tend
ency OF the strong to dominate the
weak and a tendency Of the mighty to
abuse their power. but society has
found a way to curb those tendencies:

The force and effect OF this decis-

provisions OF the law drawn by the
United states attorney general, it was
possible 20 bring this important mer-
ger case to the immediate attention
Of the United States circuit court
This case was argued scarcely three
weeks ago. In the natural order Of
things a decision could NOT be expect
ed for several months. The order of

How the Native selects Bride-rhe
Marriage Ceremony.
The Eskimo gentlemaH never selects
a wife IN his own village. AZ soon as
be is able TO make a living for family
he goes into q ncighboring village and
falls In o ft Of love before some likely
girl. She is then penned up for some
xIne IN a house sort of dugout or
burrow In the gr0undand when the
bride day comes ne goes there and
erawls In. IT is in the play that the
bride to be shall so strenuously object
that she figb,s him OF. He then goes
sut and gJss his dogs and sled, and
when they are harnessed up he goes
m again, Overcomes her, ties her hands
and feet, places her on the sled ana
hauls her TO his own village. That
completes the ceremony Of marriage.
The whole village gives them we'd
ding feast. Next day. or later on. II
they don't forget il, they so before q
minister OF the gospel and are married
In due form. This feature OF the union,
however. is not important and does
not bother them very much.
The dressing Of ths brides hair Is
a r5sela.ion. II is done up in a series
OF knots about a foot high on top Of
her head and pulled so tightly from the
scalp that very often big patches OF It
are fairly pulled out by the roots, leay-
ing bald and barren places around the
ears and the TEMPLES.
