PHILADELPHIA. oct. U.-You re-
member the drama that was a favcrite
q season or so past in which an Indian
schoolboy was the hero? Suongheart
was his name and it gave to the play
its title.
Out in Shibe Park yesterday after
noon. when the baseball world was
watching the start Of the worlds series,
Charles Albert Bender, a Cherokee Of
full blood, earned the right 20 be called
another Strongheart With the famous
Chicago Cubs facing him, surrounded by
more than $4,000 excited, tense baseball
fanatics, with the electrical effect OF all
this attention concentrated upon every
ball he pitched, this man from the silent
places worked unmoved By the tumult,
untouched by the tension that kept men
end women upon the rack throughout
the struggle
It was Bender's day, Bender's game,
Bender's glory. He put a chain and q
rnuzzle on the mighty Cub and tied him
TO a hitching post
Bender would have shut out The
mighty champions of tie National
League and former worlds champions
but Tor the drop Of a foul by Thomas
and a monentaIv tumble by Strunk
He retired Chicago in rotation in eight
innings. and only one hit was made on
his delivery up to the ninth.
Bender Noble Character.
A story worthy Of a Dickens or a
stevenson lies back Of the marvellous
aliens stolid skill that held the Cubs
helpless and of the stoicism thar heard
UNDECIDED the roar Of the crowd. II is
the story Of a life set apart by race
distinction, of nerves hardened by many
sights cast upon a sensitive spirit.
From his school days in the United
States Government School at Carlisle
Bender sensed the difference that was
made between The white man and the
red in the affairs Of life. When the
time came for him TO leave school he
selected the baseball profession as the
one best for which lie was itted. and
he did this with the full knowledge tat
he would encounter the prejudice Of
hostile crowds because OF mis- color.
AS he tells the story this prejudice,
instead Of embittering, hardened him,
made him Oblivious to the crowds.
aroused IN him a cool, calculating deter
mination TO win in spite Of the jeers
and cheers. 1t was a cruel school and
a hard one. but It has made Of this
Cherokee the foremost pitcher IN the
American League. according TO the Of
fetal records, and has equipped him with
a heart of oak and nerves Of corded
steel
Out of his brave, competent, sensitive
soul, he has evolved patience. indider-
ence to outward circumstances. and the
ability to concentrate mind and muscle
10 their utmost endeavors. Adversely
and red skin have made Bender the
champion that he is, and is measurably
responsible for yesterdays brilliant vic
tory of the Athletics.

SPANISH DEPUTIES PASS MEAS
URE AT STORMY SESSION.
Premier Wins vietory-5iIl Prohibits
Creation of Religious Orders
for Two Years.

Madrid.-The chamber of deputies
by vote of los to 20 passed the gov
ernment's paddock bilp' after a most
stormy and at times disorderly all
night session.
This is notable victory for Pre-
mier Canalejas, obtained after a bit
ter fight involving not only the oppo-
sition in Spain, but of the vatican,
whose seal of disapproval was set up
on the legislation even before it had
been submitted to the cortes.
AS originally drawn the bill pro-
hibited the creation of further relig-
ious establishments in the country
until the revision of the concordat
had been completed or definite laws
on the subject passed.
In the senate the government ac-
cepted the amendment of Baron Sacre
Lirio limiting the period of interdic-

two years.
The senate passed the measure on
Novembes 4, the vote being 149 to 5S

AVIATOR HoxsEY BREAKS
WORLDS ALTITUDE MARK AT
Los ANGELES.
AcC0MPLISHES FEAT IN GALE
Daring Altman Thrills Enormous
Crowd in His Descent From
clouds-ls Benumped by Cold
Wins q Prize of $4,000.

Los Angeles, Cal-Arch Hoxsey Of
the Wright team Of aviators Monday
broke the worlds record for altitude
here when he attained height of
11,474 feet and accomplished the feat
in a 30-mile gale that wrecked La
tham's monoplane and kept cautious
aviators to the ground.
Seventy seven thousand enthusiast
tic spectators gathered at Dominguez
field witnessed the record breaking
flight of the southern California aYia-
tor, and when Hoxsey landed safely,
almost in front of the grand stand,
his Paragraph was removed from the
machine and examined and the an
nouncement made that he had broken
the altitude record of 10,499 feet es-
tablished by NJ. Aegagneux at Pau,
France, on December 10. pandemonium
broke loose among the spectators and
a mad rush was made for the field
to congratulate him.
Hoxsey's feat is without parallel in
the history of aviation. He went
into the air few minutes before one
o'clock and quickly began his upward
flight. In a short time he was beyond
the view of the spectators. He was
gone so long that the officials at the
field became alarmed and began ma
king inquiries and requesting the
nearby towns and beach resorts to be
on the lookout for the aviator.
Shortly before three O'Clock a spec
tator in the grand stand discerned
speck in the air, and it was several
minutes before the majority of the
throng could distinguish the speck.
Slowly descending. Hoxsey made
several complete circles with his ma
chine pointed downward, before he
became plainly visible to the naked
eye. While on the side of the field
opposite the grand stand he made
sensational glide of 1000 feet The
multitude watching him thought he
had lost control of his machine and
held it's breath, but when within about
500 feet from the ground, the aviator
turned his planes upward and shot
into the air again. He turned his
machine completely around at the
pylon to the right of the grand stand,
descended and stiffy climbed from
the machine.
The cold air in the upper ether had
so benumbed him that he could
scarcely bend his knees.

MOB KILLS SLAYER
OSCAR CHlTWoOD WHO KILLED
ARKANSAS SHERIFF SHOT
TO DEATH.
is TAKEN FROM DEPUTIES
Masked Men Take Prisoner Away
From Officers in Heart of City of
Hot Springs and Riddle His Body
With Bullets.

Hot Springs, Ark. - Oscar Chit
wood, mountaineer, was killed by
a mob in the heart of this city.
Chitwood was awaiting trial for the
murder, recently, of Jake Houpt, sher-
iff, in Hot Springs. AS deputy sher-
ifs were attempting to spirit Chit
wood from the county jail to the city
prison officers and prisoner were at
tackled by 80 masked men who rid
died Chitwood's body with bullets.
Chitwood was taken out Of the rear
door of the jail, and when two blocks
away the mob overpowered the dep
uties and seized the prisoner. The
masked men had prepared to hang
Chitwood. but the sight of him
prompted speedier means. About
one hundred shots were fred. A
change of venue had recently been
granted Chitwood. He was to have
been taken to Benton, Ark, for trial
1t Is supposed that all the members
of the mob were friends of the muir
dered sheriff 1t was evident that the
men who put Chitwood to death had
laid their plans carefully and had
learned from some source that Chit
wood was to be transferred secretly
from one prison to another at an
hour when few people were In the
streets.
None of the deputies was injured
and the attack was made so suddenly
and Unexpectedly that there was no
Glance for resistance on the part of
the deputies who had Chitwood in
charge. After killing Chitwood the
masked men dispersed and not even
the leader, if there was leader, is
known.
Houpt was killed In a street fight
here last August, when Oscar Chit
wood and his brother, George Chit
wood, emerged from saloon and be-
gan shooting up the town.
In pitched battle between the
desperadoes and Houpt and several
citizens. George Chitwoed was wound
ed and he died later. Oscar Chitwood
was narrowly saved from lynching
at that time and was confined in the
penitentiary for safe-keeping.
