SPECIAL TRAINS

SPECIAL TRAINS.
Special trains bearing the last OF the
Blue legion reached Boston frequently
after II o'clock. and the great majority
only fingered long enough in the city for
a hasty luncheon before turning their
steps 10 the Stadium.
Several thousand people rather than
risk meagre lunch accommodations in the
city brought their own fare and went
out 10 Soldiers Field with the idea or
having lunch In their seats. so that the
Stadium even at the noon hour was the
scene of considerable activity.
The weather, from the viewpoint OF tho
thousands of spectators. was ideal, the
day being typical OF perfect Indian sum
mer. The players. however. would per-
haps have been better satisfied IL the
temperature had been several degrees
lower and the atmosphere more frosty and
bracing.
In anticipation OF a multitude OF auto
mobiles. the Harvard athletic manage
ment arranged for broad parking
space in the rear OF the stadium cover
ing not only three other football fields
but two baseball diamonds. In addition.
many OF the residents OF that portion or
Brighton near the Stadium, threw open
their yards for the accommodation of the
motor cars.
AUTOS IN soUADRoNs.
The arrival of these great squadrons
| OF powerful machines. nearly all gaily
decorated with either Blue or Crimson
flags was one of the spectacular feat
ures OF the day. Some of the cars were
completely draped in bunting, while over
the hoods in the rear were flung broad
banners with the words: Yale or
Harvard" i'm white against the blue
background or black against the red.
Many OF the cars mounted flag poles on
which were flown broad streamers which
snapped i'm the breeze as the automobiles
scurried out to the Stadium by the vari-
Gus roaus.
In Boston the flower stores were throng-
cd all the forenoon and violets and Grim
son chrysanthemums We're i'm such de-
mand that the supply was exhausted long
before the game began.
III anything the weather improved as
the day wore on. the sky becoming in
tensely blue although the sun seemed TO
have a decidedly crimson hue. The west
erly breeze. however. had no winterish
bite to IT, but. on the other hand. blew
soft and mild down the valley Of the

New York, Nov. PA mystery that
may never be fully solved, surrounds the
death of Nicholas Smith, a wealthy New
York manufactures, and his wife who
were found shot To death in their home
at New Rochelle early today. The bodies
were found by fremen who had been
summoned TO fight a blaze i'm the cellar
of the residence which had been started
by the murderer I'm the belief that the
bodies of the victims would be incinerated
and all trace thus swept away.
The police believe that only two persons
were directly concerned In the tragedy.
But whether 1t was the husband or the
wife who fired the fatal shots and ap-
piled the torch they do not know. Theory
points to the wife as the slayer. but there
are circumstances which would make II
appear that she could not have been the
guilty one. In view OF all these perplex-
ing indications the officials say that If a
solution ever is reached 1t must be reach
ed by the coroner.
COUPLE QUARRELED.
Two servants say that the Smiths had
a quarrel last night Several hours later
long after midnight-shots were heard.
The servants told the police today that
they made no attempt TO investigate the
shooting as they feared 10 leave their
rooms. They were found there when the
firemen came and could throw little light
on the tragedy
Mrs. Smiths body was found In her bed
with both hands folded beneath her head.
There was a bullet wound in the breast.
Just across the threshold in an adjoining
room lay the body of the husband, part
ly dressed There was bullet wound
behind the left ear and another in the
breast A revolver was lying by his side.
The police quickly concluded that Smith

FROM THE DOPE BOX.

BY winning from Rock Island while

that Decatur has played nearly all its
games on the home grounds while
Rock Island and Clinton have had bu,
two two-game series each at home.
Therefore the two last named are max

the percentage column under a heavy
handicap.

and then picked out a nice inshoOt.
He landed square and sent the terrific
drive toward right field fence. 1t
looked like it was safely placed be-
tween center and right field, but Swain
made a great run, reached for the bail
as he neared the fence, and grabbel
the sphere out of the atmosphere. II
was a sore disappointment for the 10
cal fans, but they hesitated long
enough to give Swain the hand. That
catch ended the game, and probably de-
prived Springfield of victory
