Ey HARRY TUCKER.

An even break In two fast, snappy
games at Lee park yesterday after
noon was what two thousand faithful
fans saw and enjoyed.
Neither game was certain until the
last man was out, and 1t looked like
extra innings in the second game,
when a sensational heart-disease out
startled the F'ilipinos and caused Sec
rotary NcCuiloughs respiration TO
halt ON its course for about three
minutes.
With the game practically won up
TO the seventh inning, TO which time
the Pittsburg bunch had failed 10
either connect for safety or find first
base the Smoky City crowd aided and
abetted by Goshorn's wiidness in the
seventh, tied the score. Then the
crowd OF faithful, including Sam
Rosendorf. Morgan Mills and Field
Wilbon, settled down for a long con-
test.
Fates Against Rsbs.
But the fates were against the Rehs.
After the eighth had passed without
Incident. a duplication of the peculiar
play in the seventh was pulled Oft
with a similar result, and there il WAS

plays are worth describing:

strikes called. and then swatted to
deep center for two bags. sending
Brown over the plato ahead OF him.
Sabre stole third, and in his attempt
to catch him at that bag, HOFFMAN
allowed the ball thrown by Hlue 10
get by. thus scoring Sabre.
Received Encouragement.
1t looked like a clear walk away,
but the Rebs were encouraged hy tsTo
thousand lusty lungs. and Goshorn
aided the situation by tanning.
Prout brought back the waning con-
ffdence. He nailed the ball for three
bags in center, whereupon O'Hare
pushed out a pretty single. and Prout
scored
Then the two thousand threats
howled loud enough to have been
heard at Randolph Macon college. AS
one man, OF woman. that crowd arose
TO its feet. waved its handkerchiefs
and hats in the air. and shouted words
of announcement to the next man up,
who happened TO be Adler.
Adler tried all he could to do or
die. and he died. Not only did he die.
but he carried O'Hare along with him
to destruction In a fast double play
That wound up the contest, which was
not at all slow. and which was filled
with fine playing by both teams. Here
Is the score.

Steal Stamps and Money Orders
From Postoffice. and Break

Burglars. travelling in an automo

early Sunday morning, and stole lSs
blank money orders, a machine fol
stamping them, also a registered let
ter stamping machine, and $50 worth
OF postage stamps The money orders
we're numbered from 1922 to l14OO,
inclusive. Stamped with the machine
taken by the burglars, the orders will
be negotiable anywhere. Because OF
this, the postal authorities will imme-
diately send out warnings to the pub
lie against cashing them.
The burglars also visited the ONCE
OF the Detroit. Monroe & Toledo Shore
line In the same village. Here they
drilled into the safe, but got nothing

ers, the station agent, having, accord
ing to custom, taken the money home
with her when she closed up, Satur-
day night. Her collections on SHtur=
day had amounted to several hundred
dollars. The burglars, however, did
leave the Office until they made sure
that there was no money in the place,
having turned everything upside down
in their search.
Entrance TO the railway ONCE was
Kninec by forcing a rear window.
This allowed the burglars 20 enter the
waiting room. Here they raised tie
ticket window and one OF them crawl
ed through and opened the door, thus
allowing the others TO walk into the
where the safe was
located. The contents OF the safe,
which constituted bundles II papers.
were scattered about the floor, the
burglars having apparently examined
them closely as TO their value.
In the pcstoffice, the burglars also
did some careful ransacking, leaving
untouched. They worked
quietly, however. nobody having heard
them forcing the entrance or moving
about inside. As In the case Of tie
railway ONCE. rear window was
forced.
Leslie Variance. -sor of POSTMASTER

robbery of the postoffice, about Z
o'clock, Sunday morning. He immedi-
ately gave the alarm, and Deputy
Sheriff Peter Abt, who is also specia.

HERE'S CHANCE TO BRING
CHEER TO KIDDIES' HEARTS
tcontiaued from PAGE One,


These articles are appreciated by
worthy people, such as The Time ,
seeks to reach on Christmas day.
A letter was received from Charles
IT Wilkins, Monday, enclosing S.,
which reads; II enclose Initiation fee.
Send me bill for dues"
Membership IN the club is not
limited TO Detroit as shown by letters
containing contributions received
from other cities In the state. john
Brown, OF Wheeler, Mich, joins the
club with dollar contribution, and
Tracy q Carr of Webberville, Mich.
contributes similar sum.
The Forgotten club will provide
Christmas cheer for a number OF
families whose records are filed with
the poor commission and who are
known TO be destitute and in need OF
assistance. AS soon as their names
and addresses are given to The
Times for investigation, Supt. Dollar.
OF the poor commission, checks them
on his records so that there will be
no overlapping of donations to these
peple.
There are scores OF families on rec
ord with the poor commission where
there are from four to seven small
children, whose parents have absolute
ly no chance Of buying them anything
for Christmas. Indeed, they consider
themselves lucky II they have suffi-
cient to eat. These families Tor the
most part live In neighborhoods where
other families are also In reduced cir
cumstances, so there Is slight prob
q nf
such sources.
Take the family OF Mrs. Minnie b..

B. ~ widow, seeking to support her
self by washing. She earns IS q

has seven children as follows: Lilly,

aged seven; Mabel, aged SIX; Elwood
and Elmer, twins, aged FIVE; Carroll,
aged three. Six dollars a week is less
than 81 day with which to feed and
clothe eight people. The poor COM

One OF the most meritorious cases

He is 30 years Old said Mr.. Do
