State Master Stetson opened the an

with notably important address in
which he emphasized the need of "a

our power and duty"
Resolutions were adopted on va
riety of subjects. but those of wider
Importance were the following: Oppos-
ing the reduction Of the import duty
on sweet cream from cents per
pound to cents per gallon; opposition
was expressed to the repeal Of the
law which places tax of 10 cents on
oleO colured in imitation Of butter;
parcels post was favored; the price Of
~, cents for corn sold to corn pack
ing companies was demanded for the
1910 crop: it was recommended that
the masters address and officers re
ports be discussed in the various sub
ordinate oranges, and the Maine
grange favored proportional represen-
tatiou in the national grange.
We quote from Bangor paper on

BENDER'S CAREER

Connie Mack.

- HAIRLESS A. BENDER. Philadel-
phia American League pitcher,
who was the hero of yesterdays
contest against the Cubs in the first
worlds championship game of 1910, has
been pitching big league baseball for
the Athletics for several years. He
has never played with any team in
fast outside Of the Athletics,
and is a graduate of Carlisle. He is q
full-blooded Indian. Bender a
pitched in a worlds series before, and
was the only pitcher TO win a game
from the Giants for the Athletics in
1905. He shut out the New Workers,
but was beaten by Mathewson in the
final battle by d 20 score.
Bender is a heady pitcher and ha
outlived many youngsters who seemed
far more brilliant at times. He has
had a wonderful year, n accom-
plished the eat of pitching a no-hit
no-run d gainst Cleveland thiss sea-
son. That ne is an excellent sticlser for
a pitcher is shown by the fact that he
drove in a run yesterday after Thomas
had been purposely passed by Overall
to take a chance on the Redskin
twirler. He singled, scoring Murphy
He batted .279 this season in the Amer
lean League, and fielded 800. He has
the reputation of being a great cold

OVERALL'S BENDERS

NOT BENDER'S BENDERS
Cubs Get but One Hit Until
Ninth, When Thomas's Err
ror Starts Things.

~ HIEF Charles Bender, of the Ath-
letics, was the pitcher who
clogged the wheels of the Cub
baseball machine yesterday in The first
game of the series for the worlds
championship at Shibe Park, Philadel-
phia. Bender's excellent pitching rem
dered the much Wanted inside base
ball of the National Leaguers useless,
because they could not reach first, and
when they did plant foot on the initial
sack, Ira Thomas, who was supposed
to be inferior in every way to the
mighty King, skillfully pegged them
out at second. 1t was not until the
last inning that the Cubs squeezed IN
a run and escaped a shutout. The
score was Al at the finish.
Orville Overall. who started in two
previous worlds series in the opening
games, was Manager Frank Chances

Bender was Connie Mack's standby.
overall lasted about three innings and
then gave way to McIntire. Bender,
on the other hand, did not allow a hit
after the first inning, until the ninth.
For a time it seemed that Schulte's line
drive for a cushion in the initial round
would spoil a no-hit game for the Red
skin. Against such pitching the Cubs
could do nothing, while the American
Leaguers put up a clever fielding game
after they had gotten a safe lead at
bat. 1t did not take the Athletics long
yesterday to gauge the delivery of
overall.
While the Athletics We're beating the
Cubs, Hughey Jennings, manager of
the three-time Detroit champions, sat
over in the press box at American
League park in New York watching the
returns of the big game coming in. He
appeared to be more interested in the
result of this contest than the Giant
Yankee game, for which he was being
paid to write by a metropolitan news
paper. Jennings had predicted that the
cubs would win, and when he saw that

GIANTS TIE GAME
ON WARRIOR, RELIEF
YANKEE PITCHER
Deyore's Single in Tenth Scores
MerkIe. With Tieing Run.
Ford Derricked.

A PIECE of judgment thai was
~ rather questionable and costly
on the part of Manager Hal
Chase, Of the Yankees probably cost
the Yankees yesterdays game with the
Giants, after McGraw's men had done
everything in their power apparently
to allow the American Leaguers to
walk away with the contest. Russell
Ford started the game and Chase
yanked him when the Giants showed
signs of reaching him. That was o. X.
He put Hughes in to pitch the eighth
and Hughes was as cool as an iceburg
and retired the side without a hit nor
a score, though two men reached
first, one on an error and the other on
a pass. Then IN the ninth Chase told
WARRIOR to go in, though the latter did
not get warmed up in the first game
until the fifth inning, and he was
touched up for three hits and was
lucky to escape without a defeat, a
perfect throw by Cree getting Shafer
at the plate after Merkle had tied the
score,
Bridwell's scratch hit and Merkle's
triple gave the Giants a run in the
second. Cree walked in the Yanks'
half, stole second, took third on
Mitchellis hit and scored on a double
steal with Mitchell.
The Giants, acting on Instructions
from McGraW, made Ford go the limit
all the time and he began to weaken
when the fifth inning came around.
Merkle's single, q wild pitch and a
hit by Crandall gave the Giants a one
run lead in this session.
In the sixth the Yanks tied it up
again on VOTERS triple and Crandails
wild pitch. The Giants reached Ford
aplenty in the seventh. Devlin's three
Dagger Merkle's single and Meyers's
triple gave the Giants their Two runs.
Ford then compelled Crandall to roll
weakly to him and he famed Devore
and Doyle.
Undaunted, the Yanks tailed thrice
and took the cad in the eighth, and
the game seemed to be theirs. Austin
reached first on Becker's muff. Wolter
sent him to third with a hit to right
and when Hemphill forced Wolter Aus
tin scored. Hemphill stole and tooK
third on Meyers's bad throw. Devlin
then made one of his marvellous
catches of Chase's foul, but
threw to centre instead of third
to double Hemphill and Charley
scored. Knight got an infield hit ana
annexed second and Cree's double gave
the Yanks the lead. In the Giants
ninth Warhop went in and was greeted
with a single by Devlin. Merkle forced
him and Meyers hit safely. Both stole
a base. but Snodgrass, batting for
Crandall, famed. With two out, De-
wore then sent a singing liner to left
for a base, scoring Merkle, but Cree's
great throw pabbed Shafer. who ran
for Meyers, at the plate. There was
nothing doing in the tenth and the
game was called on account of dark

thing tina he failed to 10 in three at
tempts-winning the first game-there
was a faraWay look in his eye. He
watched every detail of the game and
whenever he was told that a Philadel-
phia player had scored a run he re-
marked that the game was not yet
over. 1t appeared to hit Hughey hard.
Bender began by sticking three
strikes over on Sheckard. Schultz
singled to left, but he was out stealing,
and Hoffman was tossed out by Collins.
The Athletics were no more success
full against overall. Collins had a hit,
but was a victim of Kings accurate
peg when he tried to steal.
1t was noticeable that Chance did
not trust Zimmerman to cover the sec
ond sack in stealing and the loss of
Evers was evidently more keenly felt
than had been expected. Zimmerman
had no slip-ups, but he did not get a
hit in three chances. Evers seldom
goes a game without reaching first by
hook or crook. 1t was in the second
that the Athletics put over two runs.
Baker, first up, doubled to left. Davis
sacrificed. Murphy plunked the first
ball for a hot %grounder between Tinker
and Steinfeldt, scoring Baker. Murphy
reached second on the throw-in and
went to third on Barry's infield out.
Overall walked Thomas, but Bender
singled, bringing home Murphy. Strunk
lined to Sheckard.
In the third Lord doubled to left as
an opener, Collins went out, Chance to
Zimmerman, putting Lord on third.
Baker brought home Lord with his
second hit.
That was enough for Overall. and
McIntire succeeded him. He pitched
wonderful ball and allowed but one
hit after that. This bingle was Bakers
second double in the eighth and pro-
duced a run, as Collins had walked and
taken second on McIntire's wild throw
TO get him off first. Schultz walked in
the fourth, but again was blocked by
Thomas when he tried to steal. In
Chicago's ninth Tinker singled after
Thomas had muffed his foul. Strunk
fumbled the hit, putting Joe on second.
Killing singled to centre and n run
was over. 1t looked like a promising
rally, as none we're out. Beaumont
batted for McIntire, but was out, Col
Inns to Davis. Sheckard struck out and
Schultz walked again. but Hoffman hit
to Baker, forcing kanes
