 For Championship

Pittsburg, Oct S-Thousands of baseball fans were unable to get tic cts for the first game of the champi- onship series which began this after noon.
 Today's game was between Pitts burg and Detroit and was a continu- ous thrill from start to finish.
 Detroit went to the bat first and made score then Pittsburg came in and was retired with nothing. The next inning they each drew blank. In the fourth Pittsburg made score which was followed by two more In the fifth and one in the sixth. Detroit could do nothing and went down to defeat with only a single score to her credit.
 Adams and Gibson were the land batteries and their record was glori- ous. As the we'll known local playe stepped to the plate they were greeted with rousing cheers, and at each inning the band played. Mullen and Schmidt were in the boxes foc the vis- itors and made hard fight.

West Coast.
 The people of the West Coast feel that they have built up business ana have a population that demonstrates, beyond any doubt its commercial importance, and they have done this without any assistance. They feel that they have done the pioneer work of proving its wonderful resources and that 1t is now up to the Government to establish those facilities and aids which will take care of the rapidly growing volume of business. They should have cable by all means. Connection could be made in Clarence Strait and the line run up Chomly Sound and over the portage to Sulzer for comparatively small cost, and it would be an invaluable aid.
 A wireless apparatus was recently installed at Sulzer by the Alaska Industrial Company but owing to the very high enclosing mountains it has been impossible to get in connection with Ketchikan.
