where RELIGION IS OPEN
ts Observance In Public Is Common
Among Eastern Christians. as
Among Mohammedans.

The Bishop of London has been
praising the openness with which Mo-
hammedans practice their religion. He
would like to have mats in the athe-
naeum for bishops to kneel on to say
their prayers in public Eastern Chris
tans, as the bishop must have OBJ
served when In Russia, are quite as
open In religious observances as Mo-
hammedans. Nobody thinks it eccen-
trio for a man to kneel down in a
crowded street in order to say his
prayers before some icon. Passengers
cross themselves when their train or
tram starts. No man ever passes
through the Gate Of the Savior, lead
ing into the Kremlin at Moscow,
without uncovering. In Poland the
common greeting of the country
people one meets on the lonely roads
across the sad plains is May Jesus
Christ be praised" and 1t is the GUS
tom to reply, For ever and ever" In
Wilma people are to be seen kneeling
In the street before the Ostrabramska
gateway to pray before the picture of
the Virgin and child, seen through q
window high in the gate. This shrine
is Catholic one, but even the ortho-
dox bare their heads to walk up the
narrow and crowded street leading
to It.

suggestion.

the clerk, "but / can give you some.

BALL PLAYERS WANT TO
 FIGHT AT W0RLB'S SERIES
Charley Schmidt of Providence Anxious to Don Gloves.

4 According to advices from Cincin- natf efforts are being made to ar range a boxing contest between Larry Mclean, catcher of the Cincinnati ti Reds, and Charley Schmidt, the former Detroit catcher, who is now with the Providence Club, during the coming worlds series The plan is to stage the contest in either Boston or New York No such contest is likely, how ever, as the National Commission will speedily interfere if the promoters go very far in their activities.
 Schmidt was prominently mentioned as a white hope about eighteen months ago, and during the off. sea son of 1910-11 he engaged in a ring contest in the Southwest. It was de- cIared at the time that he had ann bitions to box Jack Johnson. Mclean because of his great stature, has of ten been referred to as a white hope, but he has shown no strong desire to enter the ring.
 It probably would not be difficult to secure the players consent for such a bout and the contest would un- doubted1y prove a big money maker if staged at a, time when either city would be the Mecca of so many ball players and fans. But the National Commission would not countenance any such exhibition, and if the com missions orders should be disobeyed the two players would be subject to heavy fines and perhaps indefinite suSpensionS from baseball.

EAST BRIDGEPORTS ARE
 ROASTING WHITE S0x
Manager Moran Wants to Know Why His Challenges Are Not
 Answered.
By Dsunigan.)


 Manager Moran of the East Bridge ports claims the White sSox are afraid to meet his team or else are holding off until they can strengthen Last Saturday the East Bridgeports easily defeated the CoIegians, a team which culty in defeating. Moran claims that Manager MeGuire of the Sox is anxious to win the championship and yet he refuses to answer his repeated challenges.
 Moran contends that his team has a better record than the White Sox. and after the easy manner in which they defeated the Co11egians says that Manager McGuire will have to come to him, as his team has shown the greatest class this season
 His line of, dope is as follows: In Bridgepotts scored more and had less scored on them than did the White Sox. In Long Hill both teams won but the White Sox had four runs Bridgeports had but one. In strat- ford the White Sox barely defeated the RexalIs while the East Bridge ports easily defeated them. Taking the home teams the East Bridgeports walked away with the Co1Iegians while in a dispute, the White Sox claiming a win by one run. Both teams have defeated the U. R. Sokols- This is a comparison of the strength of the two teams in games with the same teams. Moran says this is the last chance he will meet them under any condi- tfons. He is willing to play one game or a, series, and if this challenge is not accepted by the White Sox it is open to any team in the city, St. Jo- seph's, Yosts. West Ends or Black Rocks
