RACING MEN 1UPtFUL.
Expect a Liberal Policy on the Part
of New Chicago Officials.

Chicago, Nov. 1O.-Turf interests
around Chicago express the belief that
more liberal policy toward horse
racing may be adopted by the county
administration which was voted into
power on Tuesday last
1t is for the change in administra-
ton that the turf owners have been
waiting, and although it was said that
no positive assurances have been made
as to any future program, they were
more than hopeful over the situation.
In the event that racing is permitted,
1t is said to be the plan of the track
owners to try the mutual betting ma
chimes first and if no objections are
raised to this form of wagers, open

NORTH SIDE NEWS.
Want North Side Branch Y. M.

Headquarters Too Far Away"
Say First Warders.
BEFORE CIVIC CLUB.
Matter May Be Discussed at the
Next Club Meeting.

tute Well Attended.
BEFORE CIVIC CLUB.

Is there possibility for the estab-
fishing branch 7. M. c. A. and Y.
w. G. A. on the North side?
This question is being agitated in
the First ward in connection with the
white Elephant" campaign. The
North side people are in sympathy
with the campaign and have contrib
uted literally. However, the sentiment
is that branches of the organizations
should be established north of the
Kaw.
Among the reasons are that as the
Y. M. c. A. and Y. W. c A headquar-
ters are across the river, it is too far
after supper to spend the evening. This
is said to apply especially to the girls.
Many of them are employed in the
Western Wooden mills, also on the
South side. After long working hours,
so the comment goes, they do not feel
equal to walk across the river and
they do not like to go and come alone
after dark. A great many of the girls.
through circumstances, have to live
very economically, and can not afford
the car fare, especially those who pay
car fare to go and come from work.
Thus. while the FIRST ward is contrib
uting a share to the support OF the in
situations, it is not receiving proper
ttonate benefit therefrom, according
to the popular voice.
A branch Y. NJ. c.. A. was started
just before the flood of 1903. but on
account of the havoc wrought by the
water, was abolished, and has not
been established since. A room for
the purpose had been rented and
equipped with reading material, a lit
tie gymnasium apparatus, ETC., on
Kansas avenue. 1t is hoped that in
the near future like arrangements
may be made for both a Y. NJ. c. A.
and Y. w. c. A, by the cooperation
of the North side people, the Civic
club and the institution mentioned on
the south side.
It is not unlikely that the matter
will be brought before the next meet
ing of the Civic club. The PROPOSE
ton, might also come under the sup
, ervision of the county secretary of the
Y. M. C. A. who looks after the estab-
fishing of branches over the county.

REMARKABLE PLAY

One OF the most remarkable plays
ever witnessed on a ball field. every.
thing considered. took place at Detroit
during the worlds series of 1908. And
Ty Cobb, the sensational American
Lacquer. figured in II. as did Johnny
Evers. the brainy little infielder OF the
Cubs, says T. II. Murnane. the famous
sporting editor. Detroit had runners
on first and second, with no one out.
when Ty Cobb walked to the plate.
The score at the time being close. II
was Cobb's place to advance the run
ners by sacrificing or on the hit-and-
run play.
Joe Tinker, at short. held the man
close to second base, and "Three-fin-
gered" Brown. on the firing line. was
pitching his prettiest for Chicago.
Brown delivered the ball over the out.
side corner of the plate. about waist
high, and Cobb made perfect bunt
the ball rolling slowly about ten feet
inside third base line.
Steinfeldt never moved from third
base. Instead. he hung there. waiting
foi the play that was to follow. And
follow It did. like lightning.
AS Brown let go OF the ball. he
sprinted from his position and was
ready to pick up the ball as Cobb laid
II down. about half way between the
plate and third.
Instead OF throwing from apparently
the most natural position. Brown
whirled to the left TO get added force
on his throw. and shot the sphere at
Steinfeldt. with every ounce OF energy
he possessed. getting the ball to third
in time to head on the runner.
The throw had to be not only
speedy. but absolutely accurate. and
steinfeidts catch was little less re-
markable than the work OF the star
pitcher.
That play was planned by fertile
Drained Johnny Evers. and was car
ried out by Brown and Steinfeldt In a
manner that won the applause OF even
the opposing players.
Sam Crawford, who had reached
second on the play. overran the base
few feet, and seemed to be petrified.
for the ball was shot to Evers by
Steinfeldt in time to catch the Wahoo
wonder on the sacl by several feet
for the second out.
II was only few seconds later that
Cobb attempted to steal second, to be
thrown out by yards by Johnny Killing.
bringing to close one OF the most
remarkable innings ever known in
baseball. and practically cinching an
important victory for Chicago.

After the story of the widespread

this city there were many persons
ready to say that the rock must have
been part OF the meteoric disturbance.
That disturbance made its first ap-
pearance at Mansfield. where the skies
were brilliantly illuminated. but only
for an instant. Turning from Mans
field to Storrs. the meteorite. or what
ever it was. struck the earth.
Members of the family OF F. M.

loud explosions. Frank Mclean. coach

distance from a big tree when the
tree began to shake like a man with

Mclean described as q ball of fire"
shattered the tree.
Overjoyed that the ball OF fire had
selected the tree instead Of himself as
a target, Mclean ran home through
the rain and told of what he had seen.
