Philadelphia, Oct 26-The formal
charges now being drawn up by the
national league of baseball clubs
against Horace Fogel. owner of the
Philadelphia Nationals. may never be
filed II looks now as if Fogel, by
selling his interest in the club, would
make this unnecessary.
For two or three weeks past Fogel
has been trying industriously TO sell
the club and has already received a
number of good offers. He refuses to
give the names of the prospective pur-
chasers. but says they are well known
10 him and that they have ample back
ing TO pay the price he demands for
his majority Of the stock.
If Fogel fails to dispose of the club
before Nov. &c. on that day the formal
charges. based upon his alleged asser,
tons that umpires favored the New
York club and that this years race had
been fixed for that club to win, will be
| filed
! The charges also will include state
ments which President Fogel is al
legged to have made at the Philadel
! phia baseball park at the last series
I played there with the New York team
an accusation alleged to have been
made that the manager of the st. Louis
club weakened his team by playing
substitutes 80 that New York could
Win, and charges made by william

was said to have been impugned by
/ Mr. Fogel.
President Lynch of the National
league has been considerably stirred
up by Fogel's alleged statements.
/ IF Fogel can prove that the Nation
al league race was crooked this year
and that the umpires or the presiden
Of the league were parties to IT," re
Gently declared Lynch, then the um
pires should be discharged and black

CHARM OF CHARLESTON.
A City Where Every House Faces To-

A City Where Every House Faces To-
ward the Sea.
Every house in Charleston faces sea
ward. 1t frequently happens that the
streets do not adjust themselves to this
disposition of the house plan, In which
case the street line is calmly disre-
garded and the house is built 50 that it
shall square with the four points of
the compass. The result of this Is
curious and most interesting. at times
discOncerting, but frequently as pleas
ing as one Of Whistlers audacious and

the general form of the Charleston
houses is very simple, and they depend
for their beauty upon the fine balance
and spacing Of doors and windows. the
character of the cornice and. above ali.
upon the digniied beauty and classic
porticoes and galleries which adorn one
side of each structure.

Mrs. Antoinette Funk of Chicago, in
an address last evening before Sc
lect and largely attended gathering of
progressives at the Rock Island rink.
flayed and scathingly denounced Gov
ernor Deneen. Mrs. Funk cited in
stances in which Deneen and the cor
porations worked hand in hand, as in
the case of the granting to a corpora
ton the water power rights at Morris,
H., on the Illinois and Michigan canal
for the magnificent sum of $4,000 per
year. Deneen would have shriveled
up if he. had heard Mrs. Funk's de-
nunciation of him.
Mrs. Funk denounced the bosses as
the bad set and class which has ruled
both parties for the past 40 years.
Five-siXths of all the wealth in the
United States is tied up by a select
few, said Mrs. Funk, and that is the
reason why many thousands of men

attacked Deneen for his attitude in the

ing girls themselves who got the eight.

the girls did get the eight-hour law,
Mrs. Funk said, Deneen like a craven
hides behind their petticoats and takes
the credit. If Deneen had taken that
eight-hour labor law up, which the
poor, struggling girls desired, and had
established 1t, he would be one of the
best loved men in the United States
today. Mrs. Funk also spoke on the

and cited Governor Deneen's in
sincerity with respect thereto. Her
denunciation of Governor Deneen
was simply frightful and made pro-
found impression. Mrs. Funk said De
neen was clear out of it in his candi-
dacy for reelection; that the race is
now between Dunno and Funk.
ALLEN is HEARD.
Frank Gates Allen of the Moline
Pillow company, speaking in behalf of
the Roosevelt third term propaganda.
denounced the democratic party, say
ing that if the people wanted the soup
house, bread line and hard times of
the last democratic administration, to
elect Woodrow Wilson, and they would
get them. Mr.. Aliens fear of the con-
sequences of Governor Wilson's cleo
ton to the presidency, but rather of
the fact that he is to be elected, was
expressed in such unmeasured terms
that it was funny. Mr.. Allen also de-
nounced the procedure by which Taft
was renominated in the republican ma
tional convention in Chicago as a bare
faced steal. He knew whereof he
| spoke, Mr.. Allen said. because he was
there as a delegate and Witnessed the
outrage.

Among the natural wonders of the

are the Superstitious mountains. which
loom up from the arid desert to the
east of the Salt river valley.
These mountains are so curious that
the Indians will have nothing to do
with them. In consequence they are
full of deer. bear and other big game.
The Superstitious mountains rise out
of the level surface of the desert like
the pyramids Of Egypt.
On the crest of this unique range and

They say they are real mortals turned

This belief has grown out OF an
