BETTING ON NATIONAL GAME
Repular Bookmaklng Establishments Opened for Placing Waeers on
 Outcome of Contests,

The gamblers and the bookmakers have at last begun real attack on baseball. It was. bad enough when friends bet with each other as to the outcome of games. Now, we are in- formed, regular bookmaking establish ments have been opened. Odds are posted, based on the assumption of certain pitchers working Bets may be made on the results of games, on the result of the league race, on the number of runs that will be made, or on almost any event of the game. In addition. tipsters have begun to ply their trade, offering to give inside in- formation, sure winners, etc.
 The great national game cannot stand long under an incubus of this kind. says the Charleston News and Courier. Once let the gambling feat ure predominate and all belief in the honesty of the games will at once dis appear. Any player who makes an er- TOT at a critical time will be subjected to the charge that he has been bought. Managers and all others connected off, cially with the different teams will find themselves in most unpleasant situa- tion, pending the final ending of the sport as a national pastime.

 Callahan Has Oddities.

Manager Callahan, of the White Sox, like all great men. has his oddi- ties.
 One of them has to do with Shibe Park, the home lot of the Athletics. Jimmy looks upon Connie Mack as the real founder of the American league in Philadelphia.
 The Shibes, he says. didn't invest their money until 1t was plain the, club was sure to be a winner. Therefore Jimmy insists on calling the park Mack Park"
 A Philadelphia baseball writer be- sought Cal for an interview one day last season. Jimmy complied, but i'm posed condition that the Athletics park be called Mack Park through out the story. The newspaper man agreed, and for once. at least, Connie got all the credit that Cal thought due him.

i From the Press Bureau of The Conn. Woman Suffrage Asso)
 Summer work in Connecticut is now we'll under way. The New London County campaign which is being un-
 dertaken by the State association un-
 der the leadership of the State Or
 ganizer, Miss Emily Pierson, was be-
 gun on July 1st. The Fourth of July was made the occasion of an automo- bile parade. Women from New Haven, New London and Norwich came in their automobiles to join the car of the State Organizer. Heading the pa-
 rade was a large automobile truck loaded with boy scouts and enlivened by the music of the boys drum and , fife band. The route of the process sion lay along the shore to all of the picnic grounds within ten miles of New London, and at several points new contingent of boy scouts joined the party. Speeches were made where yer audiences were available, and the proceedings were not only useful di- rectIy in bringing the subject of Wom- an Suffrage to the attention of a vast number of holiday makers, but also in advertising the campaign which is to last throughout July and to cover the whole of New London County
 Almost equally active work is going on this summer in Fairfield County which borders on New York State.
 There are g towns in this county and in Fairfield in June, under the presi-
 dency of Mrs. H. H. Knox of New
 Canaan the County Chairman, 13 of these towns were represented while the leaders of three others were un- able to be present. Work was then
 as yet unorganized, in order that ev- cry town in Fairfield county may be brought into line. The plans for sum- mer work included open air meetings in Norwalk in connection with a muni- cipal celebration there; and open air speeches in number of the towns for the Fourth of July. There were plans also for lawn teas and bridge teas with suffrage speeches. outdoor talks in factory regions and addresses be- fore granges and mems organizations. | All the work is being planned with a an suffrage to the attention of all
 candidates running for election to the Legislature in November. In Litch- field County the County Chairman,
 Mrs A. E. S. Taylor is planning much active work and she is being ably seconded by the leagues in various | townships The Salisbury Equal Fran chise league in particular is under taking house to house canvassing, and | it celebrated the Fourth of July by holding the largest meeting which 1t had so far undertaken. A new league | is being organized at Woodbury where much interest has been shown in suf- 1 frage meetings, but which had not hitherto fallen into line by the forna- l ton of a league At W1nsted advan- 1 tion meet. Automobiles were used to
 bring speakers to convenient spots and a large number of signatures were
