New York. oct. 13-The crowning
event Of the professional baseball sea-

pions Of the National League. and Con-
ME Macks Athletics. winners Of this

game in the series for the worlds
championship For the greater part of
the coming week these two leading
teams OF the country will be engaged
IN nerve racking grapple, the games
alternating daily between this city and
the City of Brotherly Love.
A big question mark symboIizes the
real situation as regards the results Of
the series. In the mind of the real
baseball fan. however there appears to
De no question as TO how the series

that his favorite team will win. The
.Fhiladelphian can furnish convincing
reasons why the Athletics are sure to
capture a majority OF the series of
seven games and the New Yorker can
furnish reasons none the less logical
why McGraw's hustlers should walk
off with the rich plum.
Each Manager is Capable.
There is not a great deal of salts

There are atmospheric conditions over
the ocean which, l am sure. will yet

made we will have taken long step
in the direction of securing perfect

General Albert J. Myer, Discussing
That Service In 1877, Seemed
to Have Some Intuition of
Coming of "Wire!ess."

One of the most thrilling events
connected with Sherman's struggle for
Atlanta In 1864 occurred at Allatoona.
Ca, when the small Federal garrison
there was doomed apparently to fall
into the hands of a division of the
Confederate army, sent against 1t by
Hood. But at the last moment, by
means of the system of flag signals
which be had invented before the war.
when he was an assistant surgeon in
the regular army. Brigadier-General
Albert ]. Niger, then in command Of
the signal service corps of the Union
armies. was able to summon from
General Sherman the assistance that
saved the garrison. 1t was during
this interchange of signals that Sher-
man sent the celebrated message that
became the theme of one of the great
gospel hymns of the world: Hold the
fort; for l am coming"
The year after the civil war was
over General Myer was made chief
signal officer Of the regular army.
Four years after, when congress had
authorized the secretary Of war to
provide for the observation and pre-
diction of stOrms-the official begin
ming Of the Federal weather bureau
General Myer was placed in charge of
this work, and SO became the coun-
try's first official weather prophet.
A day or two after the meeting of
congress in December, 1871. met
General Myer by appointment in his
office in Washington. and told him
that I had been sent by some citizens
of New Haven, Conn, to say to him
that if it would be possible for him
to establish weather bureau station
in New Haven a convenient and other
wise suitable home for the bureau
would be furnished rent free by the
owner Of one Of the city's largest
buildings
IF had the money I would like to
establish a weather bureau in every
considerable city on the Atlantic and
Gulf coasts" replied the general AT
present. however. l am only author
lied to establish twenty-four stations,
and | am going to make the money
60 as far as l can in the establish
ment of stations along our Great
Lakes. I want a sufficient number Of
stations from Duluth. on Lake Supe-
rior. to Clayton. on Lake Ontario"
asked General Myer what special
reason there was for thus seeming to
favor the lakes
"A special reason?" he replied with
