 A white wing brigade Is to be put at wor9 on the reservation front a new soil is to be laid there, and the shrubbery and new flowers to be put in will make this front a pictures. yue place beyond any former at tempts.. It will also be kept to a perfect sanitary condition, which is an important point.
 The drives along all the mountain sides are to be decorated with shrub. bery and with flowers and made ar tistic and pleasing to sight as well as even for riding, walking or driv- ing.
 Two extra police are to be added to the regular patrol service of the reservation front, and these will be kept fully uniformed and will have new rules to govern them
 Another important matter is that in the future the leases made by the government will be determined by the character of bath houses the past lessee has conducted and no leases will be renewed to any bath house to exceed the time the house will be pro perly equipped to care for bathers properly.
 Modern and high class service for bafhers will be exacted by the gov ernment of all lesees, and the persons who except to hold these concessions must spend money in improvement that will make this the greatest bath. ing place in the world or they will llot have their leases renewed

 The Arkansas Travellers arrived yesterday morning from all over the state on special and excursion trains, and were personally welcomed to the city at the Arlington by President Waters of the State Fair.
 No address of welcome was made, however, because of m!sunderstand- ing on the part of some of the Travel CTS, who went direct from the trains to the Fair All of the officers were present, including: Ben Sanford, president; Guy Leher, secretary; ]. B. Hearst. treasurer: I. L, Well, ser geant of arms.
 At the fair grounds they took the place by storm and through the un- tiring efforts of the reception com mittee they were shown the exhibits and booths
 In an interview with Mir. Veil, ser geant of arms, he stated that he thought that the fair ought to be car red on through Saturday and prom ises that if it Is carried on he will vouch for large attendance at the week end, including over 250 Travel CTS on Saturday.
 At the fair today there was over 200 members in attendance, including the oldest members of the organiza- tion.
 The travellers were especially favor ed with the efforts of President Wat CTS and Secretary Gill, whose wei come during the day was fully appre. ciated.

 STOOD DUMsFouNoEo. Series For the Baseball Championship of the World Is Evened up When Donovan Proves Better Than
 camnitz.

Pittsburg, Pa. Oct 9.--The Amerf- can League champions from Detroit evened the count in the worlds cham pionshlp series today by defeating Pittsburf to ? at Forbes Field to day. As Pittsburg won the opening game each team now has one victory to it's credit, and at least five contests i'll all will be necessary before tho series is decided.
 Detroits ability to hit the National League pitchers and Pittsburg's in- ability to connect with the curves of Wild Bill" Donovan. tells the story of the game.
 Pittsburg got away to flying start, scoring two runs in the first inning. but Detroit tied the score in the sec ond
 1 The American feaguers batzed Howard Camnitz out of the box in the third inning. when they took com inanding lead by scoring three runs. | Vic Willis succeeded Camnitz and two more runs from his offerings in the fifth inning gave Detroit it's total of seven runs.
 Detroit made nine safe hits from the combined curves of Camnitz ana Willis, getting six from the former in ? 1-3 innings and from Willis during the remainder of the game. The Detroit hitting total included two baggers by Schmidt and Crawford
 Donovan allowed only five hits and two of those were two baggers by Leach and Miller in the first inning After that the Detroit twirler was an enigma 10 hls opponents and another two bagger by Leach in the third. a single by Abstein in the fourth and an infield hit by aWgner in the ninth represented the Pittsburg hitting dur ling the last eight innings
 Only sixteen batters faced Donovan in the last five innings, and the sup :; posedly hard hitting Pittsburgers were absolutely helpless in the face of his wonderful fiingiig.
 During the last fourinnings Willis also pitched remarkable hall. and only twelve men faced him in that time Two hlen reached first in that period but one was caught stealing and the other was doubie,l
 The most sensational feature of the game which was witnessed by more than so.ooo spectators. was a steal of home by Ty Cobb in the third inning. This was remarkably well timed bit of work and the entire :, Pittsbuig team and crowd were caught off guard
 It was in the first bail pitched by Willis after he succeerer Camnitz that the daring play was made.
 As soon as Willis began to wind up. Cobb started for the plate, and by
