The season Just closed was the mosi
prosperous in the history of base
ball. The attendance was larger than
and, mare players achieving daily,
fame. The game has grown to be the
greatest pastine Of this or any other
country or tine.
In the National league race the New
York team took a commanding lead
before the season was very old, main
ly by its base running and batting
ability and also by the great pitch
ing by RUDE Marquard, who equaled
the major league records by winning
nineteen straight victories. At one
! time in the season the Giants had
| a commanding lead OF fifteen games.
and II looked as IL the Giants were
going to make a runaway race for
the pennant The Giants big lead
however. was cut down by Chicago
and Pittsburg. and although for a
time. when the local pitchers were
going badly, 1t looked as If the lead
would be taken away, the aggressive
PLAYING OF the 6 ants kept them in
front. Pntsburg beat out the Chi
cago Cubs for second place late in
the season.
The Boston team In the American
| league set the pace early In the season
and won the pennant by a large mar
gin There were many surprises in
| the American league campaign, one
Of these being the great showing of
the Washington club under Manager
Clark Griffith. which won seventeen
straight, taking sixteen of these on

circuit without losing a game.

Good Road News
and Trade Matters

When the police Of New York take
up a matter the police In other cities
soon follow. The New FORK police
have taken up the matter of lights
at night on all vehicles. as may be
seen by this little except;
As the result of an order ascribed
to Police Commissioner Waldo drivers
of horse drawn vehicles in Brooklyn
who failed to display lights on their
wagons at night have been arrested
the past two or three days and are
being fined by magistrates. 1t has
been believed generally thai there
was no local ordinance compelling the
driver of a horse vehicle to show
q light, aithoUgS there Is one that
applies to motorists. 1t does not APP
pear to be part of any State law tina
this shall be done. A great many
Of those recently arrested made com
plant that they didn't know they
were required to have lights, but that
hasn't excused them In the view Of
most magistrates.
II probably was result of COM
nia by automobilists that this was
started. Some motorists have com
planned a great deal Of the discrim-
nation shown In respect of the law
and probably it was one of these
complainers invest eating who found
that there was an ordinance to cover
the case. 1t is very angerous for
both motorists and horse vehicle driv-
ers not to have the wagons show
lights because occasionally the auto
mobiiist cannot see the wagon until
he Is too close on II to turn out In
the outskirts OF the city where the
roads are dark this is often the cause
of accidents. Inasmuch as the use
Of headlights Is not allowed in the
city limits the motorist doesn't have
chance to pick out the moving
wagon as he does in the country dis
riots.
A wagon that shows no lights at
all Is as much menace to traffic
on the roads as a dereiict IS to ships
at sea. Moving In either direction,
II is likely to be hit. even by an
automobilist who isn't running TO-
fast. The action being taken In
Brooklyn, II 1t brings about a gen
eral lighting up OF horse drawn vehi-
cies throughout the greater city. will
be a source of satisfaction to auto
mobiiists.
New Jersey has Statewide light
law, and IL one is not on the statute

motorists to urge 4 in New YorE.
