Y. M. G. A. ASKING FOR !.
CONTRIBUTIONS
Directors Struggling to
Complete BuiIding.l

Though strenuous efforts are nee
essary to secure the funds, work on
the Y. NJ c. A building has not been
suspended. Secretary Lemly is
working hard to raise sufficient mon
ey to maintain the force on the build
ing. Last month he raised $1,000 for
this purpose, and calculates that a
similar sum must be found for the
next three months to push the work
to completion.
The present contract for the build
ing is regarded as a most favorable
one by the directors of the Y. M. G. A.
and should the work be stopped the
contract would of course be broken,
This would force the finishing of
the building on much less advantag-
eous terms. The E. G.. Seiz Company,
of Atlanta, which has charge of the
work, is making every concession pos
sible to aid the directors in complet-
ing the building. Collections are be-
ing made weekly by Secretary Lem
ley, and by this means the work is
kept going.
That the present stringency exists
in the matter of providing funds for
the building is due to no misc alcula-
ton as to the expense involved. Many
of the subscriptions extend over a
term of years, and it was thought that
these deferred payment notes could
be used as collateral in obtaining
Owing to the financial troubles
throughout the country it was impos-
sible to thus realize on these subscrip-
tions. In the meantime the work can
not be permitted to stop.

Professor Pawlow of Russia was en-
gagged for many years IN experimental
work, trying to learn the workings of
digestion, especially the digestive glands.

but he gave to science a work which
won the Nobel prize and made for him
an undying fame.
Science penetrated the secrets of ma

part of the digestive canal and stomach

st. Louis in Philadelphia.
New York, September 24.-After an ex-
ceptionally nerve-tingling two days for
the baseball enthusiasts the New York
Chicago series in the National league
ended today in a to victory for the
home team. The game kept the immense
crowd at a high pitch of excitement. The
dramatic and apparently uncertain ending
of yesterdays game had sharpened inter-
est in the last contest and especially in
view of President Pulliams ruling to-
day that the umpires' decision that yes
terdays game was a tie would stand.
Further interest was added by the fact
that Chicago had already played game
before the crowd arrived today-or rather
had appeared on the field with no other
team and no umpire on the diamond, and
had claimed that to defeat should
be recorded against New York. They re-
lied in this, It was said upon a rule
which they construed as making COM
pulsory the playing off of tie game on
the day succeeding it, Further they
urged that the New Yorks, under the
rules, be fined $1,000 for failure to appear
to play. The officers of the New York
club, however, stated that they had re-
ceived no intimation from the Chicagos
of their desire to play off the tie, and did
not take the matter at all seriously. One
of the officials called attention to the fact
that the Chcagos appeared for the reg
ularly scheduled game in spite of the
statement that it had been given out that
the New Yorks, by the rule, We're barred
from playing until the fine had been
paid, seemed to indicate that the Chicago
club was not altogether in earnest in
the matter.
But in the scheduled game there was
no doubt of earnestness on both sides. At
the opening New York put Wiltse and
Bresnahan in the points and Chicago
Brown and King. New York scored
promptly in the first, Tenney on a double
by Donlin and Herzog on hot infield
single by Seymour In the fifth they took
their other three, Tenney and Bresnahan
on a three-baser by Donlin and Donlin
on sacrifice.
Chicago punched it's four in the sew
enth single by Tinker scored Stein
feldt, and a three-bagger by King
brought in Hoffman and Tinker. Wiltse
then retired in favor of Mathewson and
Howard, batting for Coakley, who had
replaced Brown brought in King, after
which Mathewson held Chicago hitless.

FIRST START OF THE YEAR

Columbus o. September 24.-Lillian R.,
owned by David Shaw of Cleveland, made
her first race start of the year this aft
ernoon and astonished the Grand Cir
cult talent by showing enough speed to
beat Margaret O., the favorite. To do
this Lillian r. had to make a record of
2:o41s, the best time made by trotting
mare this year.
In the betting she was a strong second
choice. Margaret o. sold at $50, Lillian
r. at $42,. Locust Jack at H7 and the
field of two for $50.
Lillian r. won the first heat in rather
easy style from Margaret o. and was SO
full of race in the second heat that she
crowded the Cleveland mare all the way,
being separately timed in 2:05 fiat. Lillian
R. was somewhat weary in the third
, mile and Early Alice, given vigorous
drive, won the heat from her.
Just before the last heat of this SEN
sational race Dan Patch gave good
