Neighborhood House was Natalie's

ciencies in its exchequer from time to

her mothers pathetic anxiety about
Neighborhood House during her last
illness had touched the girl. whose life
had been devoted to the pursuit of
pleasure.
Why Natalie should turn to the
Neighborhood House in her hour of
hurt pride only Providence could ex-
plain. TO her the working girls toward
whose comfort, education and pleasure
her checks had contributed might as
well have been in Persia or China, so
little did she know them In vague
sort of way she thought of them as
moles who came out of their holes at
night and blinkingly, even duly. en-
joyed such pleasure as women of her
kind provided for them.
SO when she came upon Maggie Con-
molly face downward in the pillow of
cozy corner on that hot June Satur-
Cay, when all the rest of the Neighbour
hood girls had gone picnicking, she
stood looking down upon the fearful
one with strange, brooding eyes.

suddenly. like flash of lightning

McCL0SKEY INTERFERES
WITH PIRATES CHANCES

PITTSBCRG, October There is a Bit
ter row on between the Pittsburg and st.
Louis teams over the failure on the part
of Manager McCloskey Of the latter team
to arrange for a postponed game to be
played of at the time Clarke would like
it. Realizing that every game yet to be
played by Pittsburg must be not only
played but won by the Pirates in order
that they may have the least show for the
penpant, Manager Clarke asked McClos-
key to play of the postponed game to-
day. in order to be sure that 1t would be
played. If it were postponed by rain
there would yet be chance tomorrow or
Saturday to play 1t.
McCloskey refused: and. to the anger OF
Clarke, has named Saturday as the time
for the double program. In case there
should be rain either Saturday or Friday.
it will be all up with Pittsburg's chances
for the pennant. slim though they may
be, and Clarke is furious. In addition to
a chance of losing one or two of those
games by rain. the double bill on the
afternoon before the final big clash at
Chicago is not pleasing to the manager Of
the Pirates.

FODDER FOR THE FANS.

There was no stopping the Tigers once
they got going right, and the Washing
tons were a bill of fare very much to their
liking.
One week from today and the agony
will be over, but in the meantime the bat
ties have horse race skinned to death in

victory by the New York Highlanders
over st. Louis last Monday by making
four safe hits in four times at bat, in

George Davis. the Chicago White Sox

CLEVELAND MAKES
1T THREE STRAIGHT

CLEVELAND, October 1.-Cleveland
improved its hold on second place yester-
day by winning it's third straight from the
Athletics. The game was won easily. by
the score Of to I, but there is no telling
what might have happened had Flater
pitched from the start instead of Schlit-
ger. The man who made Utica. N. Y,
famous has been pitching rafting good
ball on this western trip, but. neverthe-
less, the Maps had a great liking for his
assortment of wet goods, and hammered
him hard for the three innings that he
was acting as barkeep. After the Maps
had secured nine hits. which yielded hve
runs. he was relieved by Flater. The
latter was on the slab for five rounds,
and let Cleveland down with one hit He
would have also held the locals scoreless
during that time had not Cleveland pulled
off the squeeze play" the nrst time ever
upon the home grounds.
But for the splendid fielding of Oldring
and Murphy Cleveland would probably
have increased it's score two or three, for
these two distinguished highwaymen took
great delight in killing long hits for the
locals Oldring robbed GOode of home
run by a long running catch. He killed
triple for Perring in the fourth. and
moment later ran in 100 feet to capture
Chech's hoist to short left. AS for Muir

ACCUSE McGRAW OF
UNDERHAND BASE BALL

From the Boston Post.
The National League base ball mag
mates may be called upon to consider q
serious charge brought by the Boston
National team.
John ]. McGraw. manager Of the New
York Giants, who lost the lead in the
pennant race by one point Monday, Is
accused Of "tampering" with the Boston
players.
The final game which Boston plays in
New York. ending the league season, will
probably decide the pennant race.
McGraw must win all three to capture
the pennant from Chicago.
The New York manager is openly
causing to be published in New York
malicious story tending 70 create dissen-
sion in the Boston ranks
The Boston management claim to be
able to prove that McGraw put out n
story saying that Joe Kelley was to be
deposed manager of the Boston team
and that Frank BOwerman was to have
the JOB
He also claimed that Dahlen. the short
stop. and First Baseman McGann. were
to be fired
The object of the McGraw story was
to cause the Boston men to start a quar-
rel among themselves and disrupt the
team. according to the Boston view.
wi. DoNcy anu NldHdBeT NelIey maze
no bones of bringing these charges. and
they have more grave allegations which
they can bring to the front.
These last charges may or may not be
brought.
There is nothing i'm them. however to
impeach the honesty of the sport. The
fans can rest assured of that but If the
additional charges were made public the
fans would not hesitate to accuse Nc
Graw of using unfair tactics in his de-
sire to capture the pennant.
When the New York team came here
| for the series two weeks ago it is claimed
that McGraw approached George Browne,
the right fielder of the Boston team, and
told him he was trying hard to get him
back to New York.
In substance this is what .acGraw told
Browne. according to the story:
George. / want you back on the New
York team. I made mistake in letting
you go. need you and you ought to be
a dub team like Boston.
best to get you back to New York. You
can depend on me. l will fix it as soon
as possible.
Graw had absolutely no intention of get
ting Browne to join the Giants. but it
was all a part of his little game.
His object, according to the Boston
men was TO make Browne sore on his
own team and await eagerly chance
10 go with McGraw and get a slice Of
the worlds series money.

Close Call for Harvard.

CAMBRIDGE, October 1.--Earvard' s
new foot hall varsity barely won her first
game OF the season yesterday afternoon
from Bowdo:n. the final score reading.
Harvard 5. Bowioin o. Harvard used
the forward pass az well as line plungtng
and end runs, and worked the elusive
pass for several gains and more losses.
Toward the end Of the first half Browne
forward passed to Crowley. who caught
the BAN over his opponents goal and lost
a chance for touchdown.
Crimson's score came at the beginning
of the second half. Burr kicked off for
Harvard and over the goal line. Wilson
kicked out to Graydon on Harvard's. A.
ward line who ran it back to the -. On
Take Kick Smith made 80 yards through
left tackle. and short. hard gains followed
through the Bowdoin line.
Newman, the Bowdoin left tackle, was
ruled out for smuggling and penalty placed
ball on Bowdoin's lO-yard line. A few
more line plunges by the Harvard backs
and Smith took the pigskin over. Harvard
was offside and the ball went back. but
on the next rush Smith rushed through
the same place for touchdown. Mckay
failed at goal
The work of Harvard's team was poor
and fumbling bad. Several fumbles. one
