Fifty Thousand Dollars in
Checks Rejected at New
York Headquarters.

NEW YORK, Oct. 3.-Fifty thousand
dollars in checks received at the offices
Of the New York Giants and the Ma
tional League for tickets to the worlds
baseball series has been returned to
senders. Il was learned today.
There was no mail sale Of tickets
scheduled for this years series. but
this fact did not prevent flood Of
letter .. applications. These have been
received by the thousand In both Of
fees, much to the disgust of the Of
ficlai stafr In both places, the only
thing to do being mailing back the
check with a note reiterating the con-
ns under which tickets will be sold
The most common method was to re-
turn them with a note saying that the
disposal OF tickets was in the hands Of
the national commission.
At the offices of the national COM
mission Secretary Heydler OF the Ma
tional League, was entirely buried by
a flood OF applications. The only thing
he could do was to annuonce that only
reserved seats would be placed on sale
on the date to be announced through
the newspapers. 1t Is said this sale
will take place at the Polo Grounds
next Monday to afford ticket specula-
tors as little time as possible to dis
pose Of tickets before the series begins.

but he eats without any tremor of the wrist the
hand which may be in charge of the eating tools -,
Red Sox sabmen will have to watch Meyers above all
Giant batsmen in pinch unless 1t be Larry Doyle. He
is likely to upset the battle at stage. In this
spect he is more dangerous than either Carrigan or
Cady, as good as they are.
Wilson is rated by many almost upon par with the
Indian. He hit and he catch, although not
quite steady in peggng his oftener worked mate.
Wilson is likely to figure more pinch hitter, al
though he be used to cooperate with Jeh Tesreau
before the series is over
While we figure the Giants have the catching edge
through the batting ability OF Meyers and Wilson. the
edge is not thick enough to cheer over But In tight
series 1t should count.
Neither team is likely to get on base often enough
to start any running amuck. Neither team could do
any running amuck upon the catching used. Unless
there's an upset fail to where either club do
much pfering than was done last year, where
each team stole but four bases in six games Iaere
has never been any great amount Of base running done
in world series, or any base running which figured
largely in the result
Hence we figure 1t that the batting here shown by
the cachers used will be vital factor the actual
catching where the rival class is so nearly .pon par
Meyers has been in poor shape for time but
has rounded to nicely after long rest and will be able
to start at his best He is always better after
rest and McGraw expects him to be one OF the main

Tesreau in one game, Wilson fill out other con-
tests toward where shafer is sent in to sprint
for the Indian.

As the pitching sized up fairly even propo-
son with Boston carrying the shade through the bril-
liancy OF Wood. the catching should be upon a par
with any edge favoring the stalwart skuddng Redman
Carrigan is Of the brainiest types Of the catch
ing game. He is good, consistent batsman, wonder
in working with his pitchers with a shrewd far-seeing
pair Of lamps which survey the surrounding landscape
for every detail. He isn't any wonder at the art Of
pegging. but manages to stop onslaught by quick
ness Of thought and action.
Cady is a better pegger than Carrigan, good hit
ter and a corking good catcher for a youngster He
lacks nothing but the fame and fire Of ong-tested bat
tie. With Carrigan he forms active working mate
and the will protect the Red Sox end as we'll as Ira
Thomas cared for the Mackian guard last year.
On the other hand the Giants have OF the catch

 with all of our organization, aiter all this must be the main end ana purpose of our craft-to make life somewhat more livable--to continually. in small and great ways. be cleansing and making sweet and wholesome each day.
 .,It will do us no harm here and now to set about doing these things-that from this place where our brothers sleep we will go Dack TO the Woih tho' w . to do. better and braver-that, please God. we will go back with newer sense of fellowship and stronger faith In our fellows"
 The singing by the entire assembly of Jesus, Lover of My Soul" followed, after which pr. George Eaves. pastor of the Pilgrim Congregational church. was 1aif of his char aeteristic lesson-sermons. emphasizing the world union and brotherhood thought, and impressing his hearers with his pro- found love of his fellow man. Dr. EaVes emphasized the good the typograph- teal union is doing in the maintenance of it's home at Co ,rado Springs for the sickly, aged and infirm members of the organization. He said he had a personal knowledge of the good accomplished there, having lived in the beautiful little hill city of Colorado several years, and often visit ing the home and it's inmates in the pur- suance O. his life work. He also dwelt with emphasis on the good example the printers have set for those both in and out of the church in their benevoleneies and brotherhood.

 During the decoration exercises photo graphs were taken which will be sent to Indianapolis Ind, to the International headquarters. where they will be repro duced in the Typographical Journal and distributed throughout the country.
