Smashed There-Athetics Played at Hartford Acad-
envy Opens Gridron Season Today.

Pittsburg, Oct. Sit was reported
to the Pittsburg baseball club officials
tonight that ticket spectators were in
a measure responsible for the dearth
of seats for the games of Friday and
Saturday on Forbes field. 1t is said

been bought in bulk by several ticket
syndicates and that the tickets are on
sale at prominent cafes, and downtown
cigar stores. The report is being in

Detroit, Oct 5.-with every reserved
seat for the worlds series baseball
games here next Monday and Tuesday
sold before noon today, the office fof
the Detroit American league baseball

in preparation for the game this aft
ernoon with Jewett City.
Assistant Manager Bert Bailey with
the help of Stark and several others
have the stakes up for roping off the
field.
Billy Burke, the former Academy
and Holy Cross player, was on the
field Tuesday giving points to the
eleven.
Fullback McCormick's stocky build
close to the ground gives him every
natural advantage for effective line
boring.
Blonde" Walsh at guard should be
a formidable obstacle to any great
gains through this position.
The work in practice with the for
ward pass between Noyes and Cap
tain Gallivan promises a classy per-
Torrance of this play in the coming
games.
The Jewett City team will be di-
rected by that old Academy favorite.
Arthur L'Heureux, one ,of the stars
of recent years in the quarterback
position.
In short scrimmage Tuesday aft
ernoon, the second squad could do
nothing against the regulars, but
Quarterback johnson pulled off one
nice forward pass to Mcnamara at
end.
Lawson, the sorrel-topped tackle, is
one of the new men in the game. and
has all the marks of making a name
for himself before the season is over.
In the absence of LAWYER Tuesday
afternoon, Loudon was in at right
half. He did some nervy tackling.
Swan at end. one of the new men,
is new to the game, but should prove
a good man when he gets the fine
points learned, as he has the neces-
sary beef for the wear and tear of
the game.

well if not better with runner on
second
The play is usually worked when
there is one out. The runner on Sec
ond signals the batter that he is go
ing to start on steal to third. The
batter then smashes at the ball
whether it be over the plate or not.
The Tigers will not work it, however.
until the pitcher is in the hole-that
is to say, when there are two balls
on the batter. 1t is certainty that
the pitcher will try to put the next
one over the plate
When the runner starts for third the
baseman will naturally run for third.
If he does 1T is up to the batter to
hit the ball between shortstop and
third. If he gets it through the run
ner will score every time. as he al
ready has a flying start.
In agreeing to play an exhibition
game with the Highlanders as tes-
.timonial to Sam Crane, Jennings had
in view this opportunity TO try out his
new plays before going to Pittsburg.
Another play that he expects to
develop between now and Friday is
the delayed steal, with runners on
first and third, as played by the Gil
ants. With Cobb on third he should
be able to get away with it several
times during the series. Cobb is fast
enough to stick to the bag and then
score after the catcher throws the ball.

PLANS FOR PITTsHURe GAMES.
Hushey Jennings Will Work up Tiger
Speed for Worlds Series.

Now that he has won the American
league pennant and can afford to take
chances, Hughey Jennings will begin
some daring experimental plays that
he expects to use against the Pirates.
In addition to the post-season game
with the Highlanders today, he has
four games in which to try out the
news plays. says an eastern report.
The most prominent scoring play to
be introduced in the worlds series by
Jennings is the hit and run with a
runner on second instead of first. That
play was worked successfully by Joe
McGinnity in Newark this season. and
it struck Jennings so forcibly that
he has decided to adopt it,
IF a runner can be advanced two
bases on a hit and run from first
base" argues Jennings, there is no
reason why it should not work equally

pure In heart and conscientious in
the discharge Of his duties and his
genial and grateful nature never
failed TO endear him TO all. When We

as Paul said, Though walk
through the valley and shadow of
death, | will fear no evil. for Thy
rod and Thy staff they comfort me"
Like weary and worn-out children
That sigh for the daylights close,
He knows that they oft are longing
For home and sweet repose.
So He calls the men from their labors
Ere the shadows round them creep,
And silently watching DER them
He giveth His loved ones sleep.
Weep not that their tolls are over,
Weep not that their race is run;
God grant that We may rest as calmly
When our work. like theirs, is done.
Till then we would yield with gladness
Our treasures to Him TO keep.
And rejoice in the sweet assurance
That He giyeth his loved ones sleep.

1t was announced unday morning
that Rev. DR.. Crosswaite, of Nash
vile, Tenn, would preach Sunday
night. His text, who owns the
earth?" was carefully presented. He
preached hope and gave very good
reasons, showing the absolute equal
ity of races and the common brother
hood and human consideration which
is due to every person. Quite a large
audience heard the sermon and the
spiritual uplift was greatly manifes-
ed. The sermon was very deep and
logical. and was based wholly upon
citations from the Bible. The tender
cord came when it was made known
that the Reyerend's son was affiict,
ed with lung fever and was in Colo
RADIO in search OF his health. Rev
Crosswaite appraised his audience
that he desired TO locate in Denver
permanently and follow the practice
OF medicine.

Tetanus is the most important single
menace of the Fourth, chiefly through
the use of the toy pistol, which makes
insignificant wounds, but of peculiar
character, owing to the fact that they
are specially favorable to the develop
ment of the tetanus bacillus. If there
is any advice to give parents in this
matter it would be not to regard trivial
injuries as of small consequence. The
chief danger is from the wads Of the
pistol, which often enter the skin through
very small openings, but which expand
beneath the surface of the skin and form
favorite nests for the tetanus bacillus.
Parents cannot treat these seemingly
trivial wounds; they are too dangerous
The hospitals are filled after every Fourth

proper thing to do is to call in physician
at once, and don't put oil on the burns.
