Mullin and Adams Expected to
Be the Opposing Pitchers in
Great Ball Game.
DETROIT, Mich, Oct. 16.
is believed to be the largest
crowd that ever saw q baseball

DETROIT, Mich, Oct. 16.
vFHAT is believed to be the largest
w crowd that ever saw a baseball
game In Detroit went out to
Bennett Park today to witness the sew
enth and decisive game of the worlds
championship series between Pittsburg
and Detroit. The weather was cold,
with the thermometer registering be-
tween IS and 40 degrees above zero.
The sky was clear, although the
weather forecast promised snow fur
ries.
Detroit turned out en- masse for the
final game of one of the greatest base
ball battles that has ever been fought.
The great majority Of the crowd that
went to Bennett Park was confident of
an ultimate victory for h American
League champions. Wagers were re-
corded with Detroit a slight favorite at
s to 10.
George Mullin, the hero of the series
In the eyes of the Detroit supporters,
was confidently expected to be the
choice of Manager Jennings as the man
to pitch the crucial game. The day was
too cold for Donovan. Mullin warmed
UP in fine shape and the crowd sent up
a great cheer when 1t was seen that
he was the pitcher upon whom Jennings
was depending to win the worlds cham
pionship. Mullins work in the series
has made him n of the greatest
heroes ever known In this city, and If
he wins today he will be In a position
to at least make the great Ty Cobb
share his niche in the hall of baseball
fame.
Manager Clarke refused to make any
definite announcement concerning his
selection for the Pittsburg pitcher. He
had Adams, Maddox and Phillippi
working out before the game. Adams
has defeated Detroit twice, and Mad
dox has done the anne thing once.
Veteran Phillippi has held Detroit safe
ly in the two games he has finished,
and Manager Clarke may give him a
chance to start a game, but 1t is
thought almost certain Adams will be
the Pittsburg pitcher.
The three Detroit players who were
injured in the ninth inning of Thurs
days game were all in the lineup dur
ing the practise. Tom Jones was APP
parently none the worse for his col
lision with Wilson, n worked snap
PLY around first base.
Schmidt was behind the bat and
showed no Ill effects or the Splklng ne
had received, while Moriarity's sore
knee did not appear to cause him any
trouble.
The regular Pittsburg team was in
the field and practised in brilliant style.
The infeld worked well, with Wagner
making some clever stops and catches.
O'Loughlin was the umpire behind
the bat, with tombstone on the bases
and KLEIN and Evans along the out
field foul lines.

DIOCESAN UNION TO HOLD
Big CROSS=COUNTRY RUN
Catholic Organization Last Night Decided to Re.
peat Last Years Successful Performance, for
Which Nearly $50 Entries Are Expected.

Dar9 HE Diocesan Union last night decided to repeat
its successful cross-country run of last year over
u the same course. The length of the run Is a
trihe over five miles,
1t is expected that there will be nearly $50 entries for
the event, which has been set for Thanksgiving Day. 1t
is not too much to expect that, because last year, the
first attempt at running it, called out more than 100. The
r. A. 3. S. will probably have a larger number of entries
than any other organization in the Diocesan Union. Al
ready the runners of the society have been out getting
ready for the event that always holds so much interest
for them.
As said before, the run was very successful last year,
but those who have it in charge are more anxious than
ever to make ii more suspicious.
The following course has been mapped out for the
race: From the .ciubrooms of the Father Mathew T. A.
B. 81, in Hudson street, north to Central avenue, west on
Central avenue to Grove street, north on Grove street to
Park avenue. to Clifton avenue, east on Clifton avenue to
Orange street, to Hudson street, to the starting point.
There will be about fifteen prizes in all, and among
ave runners are the following: Belleville Catholic Club,
,ha G. G. st. Rose of Lima and the Bloomfield Catholic

CONSEQUENTLY runs have been justly
popular in this country for some time.
II Is an excellent way to test the rela-
time merits Of the various competitors.
The distance of the Diocesan run-ive
miles-is just about the correct length,
when one considers that most of these
athletes who will compete are COM
PEELED to work all week. and that they
only have the night time In which To
train. A longer race would be too much
for the entrants. and a run of more
than five miles would be too gruelling.
