Errorless ball games are no longer
unknown to the Tiger crew The old
long hits that have been the big win
ming factor in the past are again In
evidence. Yesterday four of the Zig
ers found the crowd for ground-rule
doubles and every one OF them would
have been good for as much or more,
had the crowd been in the stands, CIV
ing the batsmen the opportunity OF
running il out.
Wild Bill famed six in a row in his
Saturday game and would have made
il shut-out but for his favorite gu
perstition which leads him to hand a
run to the foe every time be is win
ming easily They almost got away
from him then, but he stopped them
in the nick OF time.
Sunday Mullin was enabled TO pitch
a rather easy game, the early lead
which he was handed by his team
mates putting the Athletics SO badly
in the hole that they were compelled
10 take chances on the bases and fell
easy victims to the accurase-throwing

THE DAY OF THANKS

Thanksgiving, the distinctly New
England holiday, is near at han1.
While church festivals, such as
Christmas and Easter, and the state
holidays of Fourth of July and Decora-
ton day, are generally observed,
"Thanksgivin' is, after all, the
one day that lies nearest the hearts of
the descendants of our country's first
settlers. All over the Union men and
women, with their children, are today
making preparations for their annual
visit to grandma" and ON Thursday,
after having attended meeting
three generations will gather around
the h%ospitable parental board.
And what a terrible blow it would be
to the pride of the family hat cannot
afford turkey and cranberry sauce!
After dinner, when the remains of
the feast have been cleared away, ami

adjourn to the little, old fashioned
parlor, in which the fires are only light.
ed on state occasions, and there, far
into the night, the visitors will be en-
tertained with accounts of neighbor-
hood doings for the past year.
While the day is perhaps not as
strictly observed from a religious
standpoint as in years gone by, it will
ever be looked forward to by parents
and children alike as the occasion or
family reunions.

CAMPAIGN CONTRIBUTIONS

An encouraging feature of the
national campaign just closed was the
comparatively small amount of the
aggregate contributions. When the re-
port of Treasurer Sheldon of the
Republican national committee is filed
it will be found that the Republican
campaign had funds amounting 10
$~l,7OO,000, to which Charles ii. Taft,
the largest contributor, ave $160, 900
The statement will be complete and in
detail. 1t will include the reports ,f
5. w. Upham, the assistant treasurer,
who had charge of the west. Upham s
report will be filed with Sheldon at
New York. 1t will show that he col
Iected nearly 100000 OF the total. The
campaign fund this year was smaller
than usual. Four years ago it was
four millions, and eight years ago
seven millions, exclusive of amounts
sent by state organizations. The re
port this year includes many state
contributions. President Roosevelt
contributed $1,000, and Carnegie, Nor
gan, Whitelaw Reid and William n.
Cromwell gave $4,000 each. Outside
of these large sums most of the fund
was made up of small contributions,
approximately 10000 people having
contributed. The report shows that
support for the campaign did not come
from the railroads or banks, but from
mercantile interests.
The report of the Democratic nation
al committee will show that it received
but q little more than $780, 600, and
it is probable that the last campaign
came nearer indicating the true senti-
ments of the people than any other
since the close of the civil war.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 16.-At the
suggestion of President Roosevelt, the
Country Life commission has aske1
the farmers of the country to meet
in their respective communities some
time before Saturday, December 8, t.
discuss the questions which the commls
sion is studying and to indicate Their
own ideas of what are the most import
ant subjects for the commission to
consider.
In a letter to the members of the
Country Life commission the President
says the farmers should feel "a sense
of ownership in the commission and
that he believes that the commission
should get into the closest possible
touch with the farmers. He urges the
Importance of holding the meeting be-
fore congress ~adjourns prior to the
Christmas holidays, so that at he time
congress r~eassembles, early in January,
the commission may have reports OF
the meetings in hand and may be ''in
position to advise definitely what
should be DONE
At the same time President Roose-
welt adds two members to the COM
mission-one member from the south
and one member from the far west
Charles S. Barrett of Union City, Ga,
and William A. Beard, of Sacramento,
California.
The letter of the president to Chair
man Bailey follows:
"The White House,
Washington, Nov. 9, 1908.
MY Dear Professor Bailey:I wish
at the outset to cordially thank you
for the way in which you have taken
hold of the work you are doing. No
more valuable work for the people o.
this country can be done, because no
more valuable work for the farmers of
his country can be done.
"Now of course the whole success
If the work depends upon the attitude
If the people in the open country, of
he farming people of the United
States. If they feel an awakening in
crest in what you are doing, they
should manifest it. Moreover, it is
that the farmers, the men
who actually live on the soil, should
EEL a sense of ownership in this com
mission, should feel that you gentle
men in very truth represent them AMI
re responsive to their desires and
no less than to their needs. :
t seems to me, therefore, that it
would be very wise to try to get into
he closest possible touch with the
of the country and to find ont
rom them, so far as you are able,
ust what they regard as being the
with which it is most import
mt that you should deal. This you are
lready doing by sending out a circu-
ar of questions and by holding meet

he farmers to come together in the
school districts of the country
o that they may meet and consider
hese matters. / suggest the school dis
ricts because the schoolhouse would be

meeting; or they could meet at other
visionary or convenient places. 1t

him, but the true conception OF Con
is that he is a loving father. yearning
for his children. He exhausts the
treasures of heaven to redeem man.
The only thing in the way OF man
salvation is his own will Man may
reject God, but his heart Is panied that
his child thus scorns his love.
The Bible is a book both human and
divine. Not of equal value or authority
in all its parts. For example, Jesus
said: Moses said. Thou shalt not KILL
but 1 say whatsoever is angry with his
brother without cause, is a murderer.
The Bible is an infallible guide to the
best life now and hereafter. 1t is the
only book that has never beer fully
mastered This alone argues that 1t Is
more than human.
Man is a person, but has n divine
element also. So he is able to respond
to Gods call. He is of more value
than all else of the world. He is
great here, but it does not yet appear
what lie shall be. Man is not to be an
angel, but son of God. He is son
of God now and it does not yet appear
what he shall be as a scs1eof God. He
appealed to men to re; .e the great
ideal of God for them.
The invitation was responded to by
four persons. The meeting has already
developed wonderful power.
