CHANGES CUBS PLAY
TO MEET ATHI ,FTTCS
Smuggling Tactcs-Fears Connie Mack's Resource
fulness-Stars Taking Needed Rest

CHICAGO. Aug S0--From now until
the end Of the season Manager Chance
VIII conduct the campaign Of the Cubs
with the intention Of getting as much
preparation as possible for the worlds
championship contest with the Athlet-
les
Chance has proved himself to be
great general IN other campaigns and
he IS showing mis- wisdom right now by
starting on a preparation for the hard
est worlds series battle his team has
ever faced. The best critics claim the
Athletic team viii give the Cubs a
much harder argument than the Tigers
have ever given them Connie Mack is
a shrewder Iezder IN the fine points Of
the game tSar, Jennings. and so Il VIII
require an ems rely different plan OF
battle for the Cubs 20 successfully over
come the Philadelphia men from that
adopted against the Tigers.
Cubs Smashing Ball
While Chance Is not telling what his
plan Of battle wiz be against the Atb-
Ietics, provided the Cubs are the win
ners Of he National League pennant.
there is no doubt but that ne has his
ideas ali worked out and Is putting
some Of them into practice Close fol-
the Cubs are smashing the bah harder.
ard not trying 70 beat out hunts and 10
sacrifice as much as they were early in
the year Some Of the fans claim that
Chance believes the best way to beat
the Athletics viii be 10 smash the ball
as far uUt as possible, 10 get II away
from the fast-fielding infield-
In recent games II has been noticeable
there have been few hunts laid down by
the cubs, but the game Of the C'Ibs evi-
IDENTIFY vas 10 drive the BAH as far out
into the field as possible. Whether the
change in the tactics OF the team is due
to n desire 70 practice up for the big
series OF because the team is so GRIP
pied. most Of the veterans used 10 play
inS that famous inside game being out
of commission at present is hard TO say,
but the Iong-distance cloutinS is quite
effective anyway
The fact that Connie Mack is bend
ing his energies 70 fathOming a way 70
check the inside play Of the Cubs may
be reason enough for Chance TO adopt
the ole style OF hitting EN- out, but
II IS also good judgment for q team to
be able 10 use both styles Of play, and
that is Ikeiy what the peerless leader
Is trying to do with his msn-to get
them accustomed to the play that win
answer the best for the conditions that

"The capacity of this plant is some
what larger than that of the old and

A number of neighbors were sum-
moned and every effort was made to
extinguish the flames, but to no avail
The blaze spread steadily until the
entire structure was a mass of fire.
Nothing except a few articles of fur
niture could be saved and the fire was
total loss to the former occupants

William Parker. Mr.. Bricker was
away from home at the time when the
fire broke out, working on hay baler

SOY Bean
Being Cultivated BY A COShOCtOn
County Farmer
(Coshocton Tribune)

G. e. Darling was exhibiting sam
pies of soy bean plants in the city yes
terday which he raised ON his farm
near Nellie. His experience with this
species of bean leads him to believe
that it is one of the best all around
food crops for live stock that can be
raised in this vicinity.
The soy bean is used extensively
in many parts of the country for en-
silage and Mr. Darling expects to
raise several acres next year to be
devoted to this purpose. This season
he has been very successful in fatten-
ing lambs and hogs and gives it as his
opinion that SOW and eight pigs can
be fattened on quarter of an acre of
soy beans.
1t is leguminous plant of the Glow
er, alfalfa and pea species and pos
sesses high protein properties. The
field he is pasturing now was sown
the first of July, although for ensil-
age purposes it should be sown sever
al weeks earlier AS it will grow
where alfalfa will not it is looked upon
with high favor with farmers who
have experimental with it in many
different localities.

Brakeman
In This City On Monday
Evening
Fell From The Top OF A
Box Car

Alva Moore, brakeman on the B.
& o. railroad, who resides in Newark,
figured in very unfortunate accident
while at work on the south bound
pickup train Monday evening. At
about GAS o'clock, great deal of
switching was being done. This be-
ing completed, car, which was
standing on the spur track by the
freight depot was hitched to the rear
end of the train tobe removed to some
other point. Moore climbed on top of
the car in order to loosen the brakes
after which he turned his back to the
overhanging roof of the freight depot
This extends probably four feet over
the top of a box car standing on the
side track and is in such a position
that 1t would sweep a man from the
top and throw him to the ground. This
was exactly what happened to Moore,
as he did not notice the roof until it
struck him on the back and hurled
him to the ground. He alighted in
the middle of the track with great
force, breaking the bone in his left
leg below the knee, causing a COM
pound fracture. Besides the broken
leg, the man was severely bruised
about the body. Chappelear & Co.'S.
ambulance was called and Moore was
taken to the Mt. Vernon hospital
where Drs. N. R. Eastman and l.. l..
Williams were called to reduce the
fractured bone. On Tuesday morn
ing, he was getting along very well,
although suffering great deal of
pain. He was removed to his home in
Newark on the 11:24 train on the
B. G. o.
