FINAL GAME ON TODAY.
New YOrk's Victory Tied Up Series for
Worlds Baseball Championship.

In beating the Boston Red Sox
yesterday, the New York Giants roll
ed up the largest score of any of the
seven games in the worlds cham
pionship base ball series.
The Boys from the big town landed
on Wood, the Beaneaters' pet twirler,
who has twice humbled New York
in the present series, touching him
for total of seven hits, that meant
six runs in the opening inning. And
when the game was over the final
score read New York, II; Boston, 4.
New York's victory tied up the
series. Each of the teams has now
won three games, and one contest re-
suited in tie. The deciding game
is being played today. Little did
many baseball fans think that Boston
would lose yesterdays struggle, es-
pecially with Wood occupying the
mound.
Many local followers of the game
now believe that New York will be
lauded as the worlds champions as
the result of roday's game, because
it is felt that the Giants now have
the Red Sox on the defensive, hav-
ing overcome lead of two games, and
putting a crimp in Boston's best
finger.
Christy Matthewsol, the old "war
horse" sof the diamond, will pitch
for New York today, and it is not un-
likely that Wood will start again for
Boston.

GATES HELPS NAVY COACHES.
Former Yale Star on Field at Naval
Academy YESTERDAY GiIchrist
NAV Go Back TO End.

Jack Gates, former football
star at Yale, and who for several
seasons was field coach of the Navy
eleven, was present on the Naval
Academy field Yesterday afternoon,
aiding the staff of coaches in their
efforts 70 whip the sailor lads in
shape for their game with Swarth-
more on the coming Saturday. The
team is far behind the standard at
this time compared TO former sea-
sons.
The prevailing cool weather has
been an incentive for the players to
+ put lots of vim and dash into their
work. There was half an hour of
stiff scrimmaging in yesterdays prac-
tice. in the course of which the Var
sity showed some good offensive work
and was able to score twice against
the Scrubs 1t is not unlikely that
the coaches will move Gilchrist from
quarter back to end, in which posi-
tion he played a strong game for two
seasons.
Towards the close of last season
Gilchrist was placed in the pivotal
position and showed up we'll. 1t is
thought, however, that it will be to
the advantage tc the team to resume
the end position, and in yesterdays
practice the coaches tried out several
players at quarter.

ELLYSON HAS NARROW
ESCAPE FROM INJURY
Aviator PIunges Into River by Cap
size of HydrO-aerOplane.
ON START FOR WASHINGTON.
Had Lieut.. Smith, Marine Corps, as
Passenger Neither Hurt But
Machine Completely Wrecked.

The proposed over-water flight from
Annapolis to Washington by Lieut..
Theodore G. Ellyson, senior officer in
charge of the Navy Aviation School
here, terminated very abruptly this
morning, and Ellyson, with Lieuten-
ant Smith, of the Marine Corps,as a
passenger, narrowly escaped serious
injury when they plunged into the
chilly waters of the river, as the
result of the capsize of Curtiss
hydro aeroplane.
Fortunately, neither of the avi-
ators was hurC, but the air craft
was completely demolished. After
giving his craft thorough test yes
terday, as well as this morning, Lieu
tenant Ellyson, with his passenger,
ascended from the aviation grounds
shortly before O'Clock this morn
ing for the flight to Washington,
which was to have been made under
orders from the Navy Department.
Ellyson had not ascelded to a great
height, nor was he driving the craft
at much speed. everything was APP
parently working all right in the
first few hundred yards travelled.
Suddenly, however, some engine
trouble developed, and before the avia-
tor could bring the craft down, it
capsized and pitched rapidly into the
river near Horn Point. The planes,
as well as the other more delicate
parts of the craft, were completely
wrecked
The accident was witnessed from
the Naval Academy, and poats imme-
diately put out to the rescue of the
disabled "bird men" and their ma
chine. Ellyson and Smith were taken
aboard a small launch, none the
worse for their frightful experience
with the exception of a good duckiug.
The wrecked hydro-aeroplane was
then towed to the aviation grounds.
The trip to Washington will have to
be abandJned at least for the present.
Lieutenant Smith the Marine Corps
officer with Ellyson, is one of tne
pupils at the aviation school.

campaign plans were in allegiance, they
said.
Governor Hiram johnson, in Pitts
burg last night, admitted that he
didn't know what his future move
ments in the campaign will be. All
OF Colonel Roosevelt's campaign en-
gagements have been cancelled up to

scheduled to speak in Madison Square
Garden at the biggest indoor meeting

there and his party comrades believe
that he will be.
Colonel Roosevelt was also t5 devote
three days, the Thursday, Friday and
Saturday before election, to final
tour Of the State topped off by rapid
series of speeches in New York on
Saturday night. In all, about forty
speeches We're on the program pre-
pared at state and county headquar-
ters.
Whether the candidate will be
able to make these forty appearances
or any of them STAGE Chairman
Hotchkss does not know. 1t was sug-
gested to Mr.. Hotchkiss yesterday
that If the Colonel should not be able
to resume his campaign gait by the
end of the month he might at least be
well enough to appear on the plat
form in most of the towns of the
State that are expecting him and
have some other Progressive read his
speeches for him.
To the county chairman Mr.. Hotch-
kiss sent this note:
We now, this Tuesday afternoon,
feel reasonably assured that Colonel
Roosevelt is safe. We urge that you
suggest to the clergy of your county
that they hold special Thanksgiving
services in cheir churches next Sun
day. This is Gods cause. We need
the help and prayers of all godly
men and women.

TO BAR PUBLIC CUPS ON TRAINS
SurgeOn-Gen. Blue Urges Regulation
as Health Measure.

Surgeou-General Blue, of the Pub.
lie Health Service, has urged Secre-
tary MacVeagh to issue an order
putting a ban on public drinking cups
on railroad trains.
He declares that these utensils are
germ-laden and spread disease, and
that in the interest of the public
health their use should be prohibited.
Under law passed at the last ses
sion of Congress, Surgeon-General
Blue believes that the Public Health
Service has authority to compel rail-
roads to abandon the public drinking
cup. Many states have passed laws
prohibiting the use of public cops on
trains, but these laws operate only
within state lines.
Surgeon-General Blue thinks it is
time the Government should insist on
the adoption of the reform on inter
state trains.

WHO IS TO BLAME?
No Compulsory Education Here.

Some counties have compulsory
education laws, not Anne Arundel
however.
That there is missionary work to do
in Annapolis, Eastport, Germantown
and West Annapolis is daily empha-
sized by the girls and boys on the
streets day and night whose ages
range from to ID years.
Yesterday girl of ID years WAS
stopped during school hours on Spa
creek bridge and asked why she did
not 90 to school. SIZE gave the same
old reasons, had to work to help the
family and was then carrying home
some laundry. She is fourteen, can
neither read nor write, never was at
school day in her life, does not go
to Suuday-school either, and is being
raised in ignorance and heathendom
right under the noses of educators and
Christians.
The other day girl OF fourteen
was seen wandering about aimlessly
in St. Anne's cemetery. The time
was between 10 and IL a. M, when
children are in school. She was
asked: Don't you 60 to school"
and said mo" She was told the
Importance of learning and that
schools are free, and was urged to
learn something and go to school.
She said she might go to school "some-
time" But will she? 1t may not be
work for the Civic League, but it is
certainly work for somebody to induce
or persuade children to attend school.
Ignorance breeds crime.
