NEGLIGENT OPERATION

OF AUTOMOBILE.
 While buggy in which were a man and a boy was being driven on a highway, a heavy automobile tried to pass it, but struck it's rear wheel. The boy was thrown beneath the feet of the horse. and literally kicked to death. The owner and driver of the machine were convicted of manslaugh
 ter in the second degree. In People V. Scanlon, IF New York Supplement. 57, the defendants appealed from an order denying new trial. The New York Supreme Court. affirming the convic- tion of the chauffeur. said that it was the reckless driving which is the cause of neany accidents. and which should disqualify any one who practices it. With heavy machine. weighing 3,00) to 4.000 pounds, going at the rate of 26 miles an hour it is ipdefensible negligence to attempt 70 pass a buggy within few inches. The owner of the machine who was sitting next to the driver. had given orders to give full leeway to passing vehicles. He was powerless to defect it's course in time to avoid the catastrophe. The whole thing was. as it were, instan- taneous. in the control of the chauf- feur, but in no way in the owners s control. The conviction of the owner was reversed. and a new trial granted.

MATHEWSON
 TO RETIRE AT
 SEASONS END
Premier Twhler is Slated for the
 Lumber Business.

According to press dispatches from St. Louis Christy MathewsOn is through with baseball. He will finish the season with the Giants. but after ! that it is a business career for one Of sthe greatest pitchers baseball has seen,. lMathewson reports say is the author sdty for his announced retirement. He has t'at chance to go into business with
 an old friend who thoroughly under, stands the lumber business The part nership will manufacture creosote rail-
 way ties in Nova. Scotia. Already large orders have been booked from Canadian railway concerns. Mathew fson has had an exceptionally bright career as a pitcher. and believes it is F time for him to branch out into an occupation which has a brighter fu- 1 tture. now that he is turning the age kwhen most athletes begin to. Ego back. blow to the Giants. For ten years the great pitchers work has been the greatest factor of the Polo Grounders' success. This year. single-handed he Ehas won just one-third of New York S victories. Matty has saved quite fortune through wise investment and lis willing to stake his all in the new
 venture. If he is with the Giants next year it will be only because of a fail 1lre to swing the ney business into activity that early. At any rate.- his adieu, to the national pastime forever is not far off.
 hMathewson's attitude is not one afs-
 stunned to force raise in salary. Like Fielder Jones. late manager of the White Sox. he believes the opportunity of his contemplated business career too bright to be influenced by any price the Giants might pay. He is satisfied with his treatment in New York. but believes his work has repaid all scores. He purposes to let no sentiment stand lin the way of a future which must come sooner or later when his cunning
 is a memory.

SMITH REPLIES
 TO MGR. PRIDE
Sporting Editor of the Farmer.

Dear Sir:
 In regard to MT. Pride's statement in Monday evenings Farmer about me holding bets on the Bateheller-Birdse Somers Game. The only bet that ] ever held was his one bet against the Batcheller team. His statement about holding more than one was false. I will give Mir. Pride five dollars for every bet that he can prove that held on that game outside of the one that I held for him. He also said that I had a rolls of bills to bet on the Birdsey- Sozners team when they played the Locomobile team. This statement was also false. MT. Pride Or nobody else saw any bills in my hands to bet on either side. About withdrawing the Batcheller team from the league if I did not win the protest from the Locomobile team, I did say that I would withdraw if they did not settle the matter in a reason able length of time. Thanking you in advance for this space. I am

game 4-3. Mathewson wouldn't let St. Louis touch him when hits meant runs.
 Pittsburg has won the National League pennant and has sent orders to contractors to rush specifications for 15,000 additional seats to Forbes Field for the worlds championship se- ries, which will bring the seating ca other park in the United States. Drey- fuss has suggested to the National Commission that in view of the large capacity of Forbes Field the rates should be reduced there. Old Cy Young yesterday underwent an operation in Boston on his leg, be- ing hit by a hot liner in the last game bus club had with Detroit. The wound became infected causing the opera tion.
 American League fans in this section of the country are roofing for the Ath- letics to win the pennant as they con sider them the better team to tackle the Pirates. Detroit has fallen down miserably on her two former attempts, and is due to do the same again. as her pitchers are not as good as they were in seasons gone by.
 Catcher Gibson who has broken the record for consecutive games behind the bat, is determined to remain on the job right through to the end of the worlds series unless he is injured.
 It is the opinion of baseball critics that Earl Gardner at second base has just about made the Highlanders, who have lost many games this year because the keystone of the diamond has been improperly cared for.
 Bill Everett a former Chicago Ma tional League star, is the father of a plan to establish a home for veteran ball players who fall victims to con sumption, to be established in Colo rado and to be maintained by the pa irons of the two big leagues and the Eastern and American Association.

With Mathewson in the box, the Giants scored another victory over the Cardinals yesterday by to 3. Mathew son was touched up quite lively in the first inning, the St. Louis team scoring three runs. A double header was scheduled, but on account of rain the second game only lasted three in- nings. The Pirates increased their lead in the pennant race by defeating the Doves easily. The Brooklyn Chi cago game was postponed on account ] of rain. Philadelphia and Cincinnati splayed a fourteen inning tie game. lThe results:
