MAYOR AND CHARITY
TO ORGANIZE ASSOCIATED CEHARI-
 TIES INSTITUTION.
Headed By Mayor Teague Who Is Sup ported By Alderman Merits and Other Prominent
 Citizens.

Headed by Mayor Teague, movement Is on foot for the organization of an associated charaties institution, the mayor having written letter which will be sent to prominent citizens re- questing them to meet him in his office in the city hall Thursday morn Ing at II o'clock to perfect the organi- zation, plan a schedule of work and discuss the most beneficial way of car rying 1t out.
 Alderman Moritz Is also very much interested in the matter and will aid in forming the association. The pres ent idea seems to be the banding of nonsectarian interests in raising a fund and using 1t for worthy causes, especially in cases that the Salvation Army cannot reach.
 It Is the suggestion that the mayor be placed fin control of the funds of the organization as he is in position to come in contact with more needy cases than anyone else, the dlstribu- ton being left to his discretion, or to the mayor and committee.
 Mir. Moritz says there are many per sons really deserving charity who shrink from asking 1t and that chari- ty workers should be appointed to hunt these cases up where help is soreiy needed. He also spoke of a system pIeNdIeul III SiHiiiaE OfBdhlsdtiOn III Philadelphia where philantropically disposed persons lend amounts to the charity organization which are lent to needy and worthy persons who event ually return the loan. He cited one in- stance where a woman had no means of supporting herself, but bein~ loaned the price of a sewing machine, was soon in a position to support herself, eventually returning the money.
 He says 1t Is a mistake to continue giving. that it deprives the needy ones and a helping hand to get them on their feet is far more beneficial than a few dollars doled out that only cover a few days provisions. He spoke in the highest terms of the great work being done by the Salvation army, but said the cases that the army could not reach should be attended to and there was plenty of room in the city for more help than the army could give
 Mayor Teague has been talking the matter over with prominent men and women for some time and 1t Is believed the work will soon be carried through to an organized working basis One suggestion is to make 1t a stock com pany, not paying dividends, and use the capital for loans to help unfortun- ate men and women to get back on their feet. It was also said that many persons could be saved from destitu- tion and degredation by a helping hand before they are too far gone, and be prevented and thus stop the increase of the helpless and needy
 Several representative business men were spoken to Monday on the stub ject and general approval Of the ma yors suggestion was expressed.

 That same evening at the Villa An daiusia the departure of Mrs. Tudor was discussed with unconcealed jubi- lation on the part of the Duquesa and her niece; the latter bantered Paul, with audacious frivolity, on his solemn face and his glum silence. Was IL possible that he cared for the girl after all? she asked herself; certainly. the fortune was a loss; but, then her aunt Maria was so passionately deter mined that there should be no marris age. For her own part she had en- joyed flirting with Paul; but money good solid English rf1oney--is power. Paul had made a clean breast of 1t to his aunt Mercedes, and from her he had obtained Mrs. Tudor's London ad- dress. To this he immediately des- patched two letters, written in his most touching and inpassioned style he was ever most successful in the role of penitent; but on the present occasion Paul was in earnest--sincerity was stamped on each line. Many. many days elapsed, and he received no re- ply. Then the Marquis de Sarazin had visions of following Miss Forde to England; naturally he cared for her more than ever, now that she seemed far beyond his reach! She was good and beautiful, pure and innocent; her heart was as white as her hand--could more be said? Honestly, it was not her money that he sought but if he started in pursuit his friends would say, Paul de Sarazin is a fortune hunterw
 The truth was, that Mrs Tudor. hay ing read his epistle of charming con- triton, had torn 1t up, and cast 1t with scorn into the waste-b basket; and, after a few seconds hesitation. the

OWEN MAKES HIT IN NATIONAL
Umpire from the Tebeau Circuit Turns
Out a Success.

NEW YORK, Sept. 26.-President Pulliam
introduced a new umpire to the few unsus-
pecting baseball fans who saw the Brook
lyns trim the Cincinnatis the other day.
His name is owen and he comes from the
American association, The new indicator
man made a very favorable impression. He
umplred behind the bat and his judgment
on balls and strikes was good. He is a
powerful looking young man and has a
deep bass voice. At times the fans can al
most understand what he is saying, which
is a vast Improvement on some Of the
older umpires. owen had a remarkably
good reputation in the minor league, and is
said to have had complete control over
the players. incidentally it is reported
that he whipped one or two of the ball
tossers for insults, not on the diamond
but after the shades of night had de-
scended.

Coach CatIin Makes Roadway with

IOWA CITY. la. sept. 2s-CspecialD-
loves prospects ATE fairly good was the
concise sunmat made by Coach Mark
Cauin after the first week OF football prac-
ticc on Iowa field. "You mas say that we
will have a good team was his conservs-
tive estimate, after having watched his ma
terial work out for five days.
For the first time In years a record
breaking sized squad responded to the
call for candidates. sevcnty-five men were
out on Iowa field Tuesday night and at
one time five elevens were running through
signals.
There has boon no let up in the speed OF
the practice despite the torrid weather.
The first day the men ran through signals
for half an hour and the time was in
creased each night, winding up with a hard
%scrimmage today. Hurry-up methods
proved popular with Catlin and Griffith
who expected plenty of 'pepp' and ginger
all the time.
Most OF the signal practice was devoted
to the initial efforts In mastering Catlin's
now famous new angle play" which
1owa's head coach believes will work on
the smaller teams and elevens from the
larger schools alike. This is a play or
rather a system Of plays which will work
against either strong or weak cams was
the way Catlin expressed It. 1t furnishes
every means TO further variety in the
Hawkeye attack and a diversified offense
is the sole ambition Of the coaches at the
present time.
Gross and Seidel, the giant linesmen,
were the last arrivals. neither coming I'M
til the middle of the week. seidei, the
player who so cleverly opposed Van Hook,

MISS BROWN AMONG THE WINNERS
Omaha Woman Carries on Second OF
the Rambler Prizes.


Two hundred and seventeen Rambler
dealers, every one of whom has found sue
cess in the sale of rambler cars, were en-
tered in a recent contest to discover the
ten best reasons why 1t is most advan-
tageous for a dealer to sell Rambler au-
tomobiles.
One hundred and twenty-five dollars in
prizes were offered by Thomas B. Jeffrey
& Co., two months ago. Ten men, each
one of whom has been identified with the
company for many years, acted as judges
and read every letter.
j. f. st. Clair, Concordia, Kan, won the
first prize of $50. Miss Ella j. Brown, sec
rotary of the Colt Automobile company,

a 100000 business during the last year.
won S25; L. G. Martin. Pittsburg. Pa, drew
third prize and I. r. Campbell, Des Moines,
Ia, drew fourth prize. The ten best rea-
sons follow:
The goods; the quality Of the Rambler
product.
The reputation and stability of the COM
pany.
The factory; the largest and most COM
plete of its kind.
The advertising; the most extensive and
effective done by any manufactures.
The sales help; the system of answering
the inquiries OF all prospective customers
by personal letter without cost to the deal
ers.
The interchangeability of parts and quick
service In supplying same.
Prices of parts: one-half to two-thirds
lower than those of any other car.
Fourteen thousand satisfied users, every
one helping the dealer to sell Ramblers.
Fourteen thousand cars in use; not a sin
gle one out Of commission.
The policy of the company, fair prices;
best product; fair treatment.

~ EcINNING today the schedules show
New York Nationals have nine
N games to play, Chicago Cubs have
IL five and Pittsburg has six. II Is
difficult. therefore,. to say which
team. as between the Giants and Cubs or
Pirates and either Of the other two has the
advantage in this respect. The general
situation presents Pittsburg as third in the
race. Taking that as a reasonably safe
Judgment, though It Is not infallible, It Is
extremely difficult to assert that New
York with its greater number OF games
vet to be played Is thereby handicapped.
II the Cubs had a lead Of any size, OF
course the fact that they only have five
games scheduled as compared to New
York's Mint would give Chicago a decided
advantage. but under the circumstances
the team with the larger number may nave
, the advantage. But as a matter OF fact
chicago ought to be better situated than
New York. for New York has six Of its
nine games with Philadelphia. a team that
is capable of %dislodging the calculations OF
any OF them at any time. The other three
Of New York's games are with Boston.
These and three Of the Philadelphia games
are on Now York grounds. Chicago plays
four games at Cincinnati and one at chi
cago with Pittsburg. OF course this offers
no snap. especially in view OF what GIN
cinnati has done in New York. Pittsourg
has five games with st. Louis, three at
Pittsburg and that last game at Chicago
with the Cubs. Chicago gained a tremen-
dous advantage when 1t came away from
New York with that final series, an
achievement which Chicago feared it could
not accomplish. The Giants were depressed
in tho same ratio that the Cubs were in
spihed, as was shown by the double-headcr
won by the Cincinnati Colts. a lot of re-
crults. One thing certain-New York will
have to fight and fight desperately to win
the majority of those Philadelphia games,
much harder. no doubt. than Chicago will

triumph over the Giants does not signify
the superior strength OF the Reds as much

President Pullism, though by no means
a sensational man, has appeared as the hero
in a spectacular drama this year as he
did last. Yet in neither case was the stage
setting due to his own efforts or influence,
He merely played the role created for him
and which he. as an honest and fearless
official. could not evade. As in the John
ston case of 1907, so in the tic game case
OF the last week, the president of the Ma
ional league has displayed n fine courage
which is good to have in the directing head
Of q great base ball organization. There
II no doubt that New York went in to steal,
II II could not win, that final series with
Chicago. That was evident when McGin-
nifty deliberately hurled the ball away off
into the left field throng when he should
have allowed a Chicago player to get 1t
and try for put-out. EMPIRES Emslie and
O'Day very properly called the game a tie
In the face of this depreciation, and Presi-
dent Pulliam deserves the thanks of every
lover Of organized base ball for unfolding
the decision Of the umpires. There is no
likelihood that New York's appeal will gain
anything for that team.

Brett was pitching for st, Louis and Gin

closed, he was the premier pitcher Of that
league. And that isn't a discredit on the
Southern league, either, for il is one Of the

finish Of that league this year was one of
the most remarkable in the annals of base
ball. Nashville and New Orleans came up

Ireland to Have Forests.

Ireland has awakened to the value of
her forests. \ commission appointed by
the crown has just made public its re-
port.
The commission urges the adoption of
a scheme for the state to plant about
100000 acres. This, with the 800 600
acres existing, would give Ireland L.
100000 acres of forest land, an area
which the commission considers essen
tial About 10000 acres would be pur-
chased by the state in mountainous re-
gions and managed as state forest, while
100000 acres would be planted by The
state, but managed by private owners
or 10y county councils.
Denmark. an agricultural country half
the size of Ireland, has since 1881 in.
creased her forests by 1T5.oOo acres.
Belgium, in spite of her dense popula.
ton, has added 10000 acres to her for
ests in the last twenty-five years.
Ireland is particularly suited in soil
and climate fer the growth of forests,
but only IL per cent of her total area
is foreSted.
