fects of a week of worlds pennant bat,
ties and of a day and night celebrate
ing victory and drowning sorrows OF
defeat In marked contrast to the ex-
element and intense interest in sin
gle absorbing question which had been
the rule for days previous was the
comparative uuist and feeling OF rel1eI
which was noticeable at different base
ball and fan headquarters, the day at
ter the struggle was over. There was
lacking any apparent aftermath of
bitterness or arrant craftsmanship.
