Red SOx Supporters COnfiden
Their Team VIII Win.
Betting on the Whole, How
ever, Is Pretty Even Money.
EVERYBODY'S GUESSIN' |
And Your Pick Is Just About as
Good as AnyOne's.
Both Clubs Finish Race With a
Near Percentage.

New York, Oct. 3.-Authentic in
formation as to the extent of betting
on the approaching world champion
ship baseball games is impossible. 1t
is known, however, that many Boston
supporters have given New York en-
thusiasts odds as good as 10 to on
wagers that the Red Sox will defeat
the Giants in the series.
Such odds, however, are an excep-
ton rather than a rule. Most WagerS
are even, with some New York en-
thusiasts undoubtedly giving odds to
Boston men. Both clubs are finishing
their league race with practically the
same percentage of winning games.
Detailed comparisons of individual
work and team play show little advan-
tage one way or another. The facts
and the uncertainty which naturally
surrounds a contest between two teams
which have not been matched before,
all lead to an evening up of the betting
business.
Tendency of the Boston fans to
indulge in the greater odds may be
traced to confidence in Joe Wood
pitching, Speakers and Gardeners bat
ting and all round team work. Also
ter half of the season the Giants
showed a great falling off from their
earlier play.
Almost everyone known in baseball
mas volunteered TO PICK the winners
Beginning with the opposing managers
themselves Jake Stahl says that he
believes he will beat the Giants, and
John ]. McGraw says he expects to
turn the trick, expecting much of his
new pitcher, Tesreau.
Connie Mack, who knows the Giants
well from having led the Philadelphia
Athletics against them to victory in
the world championship last year. is
certain that the Giants are doomed
again. He is quoted as calling the
Boston club the best balanced organi-
cation he has seen in 20 years But
Mack is an American League man.
Frank Chance and his Chicago Cubs
were beaten by the Giants for the Ma
tional League pennant, and the Chi
cago manager thinks that a sufficient
guarantee that they will beat Boston
A parallel of similar guesses might be
continued almost indefinitely with
about equal showing of support.

Manhattan, Kan, Oct. 2-The Kan

For individual players the prospects

Felps, a Manhattan husky, who was
easily the choice for all-Kansas cen

Aggies. Coach Lowman has a heavy

a coach could desire. Sims is playing

there were more school officers than

to the ford in the river the plan
became definite and Old Jim set his
jaws in grim resolve.
Then, when the horse had reached
the middle of the river and the slow
current was tapping at the bottom Of
the buggy, Jim pulled up, climbed out,
and very gently but very firmly lifted
Miss Amandy from the seat and stood
her in the water beside him. She was
too badly frightened even to scream.
Jim explained: MANDY, I've loved
you fer nigh on to fifteen year, and
I've co'ted you constant. You're such
DANCED fool that you CANT see rea-
son, and I've got to use fo'ce. For
the last time ask you in peace, will
you marry me even if I do believe in
dipin'?"
Amandy forgot to be frightened.
She was as mad as an old maid ever
gets to be.
"You Jim Sikes" she screamed;
drat your time, if you dare-why, I
'wouldn't-you let loose of-you
drafted brute-you-if you dare"
But Jim held firmly on. eyes or
no." said he.
For answer, Amandy struggled
loose and slapped him.
Then very gently Jim forced her
under water. She came up sputter-

"No!" screamed Amandy. eff
er-blub-br-r-r-"
The last part of Amandy's threat
was drowned as Jim showed her un-
der the second time.
When she came up she was Sob
bing, and each sob almost broke Jim's
heart, but he was no gutter.
"Amandy," he said, (which is it
yes, or get drowned?"
Neither was Amandy a gutter,
but she knew when she had enough,
and after moments hesitation she
said:
"Yes-and drat you"
Jim lifted her back into the bug
gy, and as they drove on; she snuggled
up to his shoulder to keep warm.
AS they neared Amandy's home she
looked up into Jim's face and said:

man on earth. You've out-done me
about this here dippin' business, but

The Exposition Emphasizes
Nearly Every Phase of Agri-
cultural Progress, the World Over

The Fifth National Corn Exposition
will be held in Columbia, S. c., jan
uary 9th to February 8, 1913. The
four previous expositions were held in
the Northern States and the selection
of . Southern State for the next is
an acknowledgement of the fact that
the South is no longer looked upon
as purely cotton producing section.
For the first time in the history of
the country, all sections-East, North
and West--will have an opportunity
to meet in the South for the holding
of great National Agricultural Ex-
position.
Those who are familiar with the
past history of this movement and
what it stands for in its relation
to agricultural education and devel-
opment know that it is more than a
mere corn show. The competitive ex-
hibits of corn, other grains and
grasses and is only minor part of
the Exposition. The great feature
will be the exhibits and demonstra-
tions of the various State Agricul-
tural Colleges and Experiment Sta
tions and the United States depart
ment of Agriculture. These exhibits
will depict in graphic and forceful
manner the various lines of agricul-
tural experimentation and investiga-
ton being carried on by the United
States Department of Agriculture and
the different State Agricultural insti-
tutions. Each exhibit will be in the
charge of experts, who will explain
the details to the visiting farmers and
point out how the results of this work
may be applied to their own farm
conditions.
Conservation, country life and ru-
raj school problems will be treated
in fundamental way both through
exhibits and by speakers of national
reputation.
There will be competitive classes
for all kinds Of grains and grasses
and cotton. AS this Exposition is
national in scope, it is necessary to
limit the number of competitive ex-
hibits to the prize winners in their
respective State shows. In this way
only the best that has been produced
by each state will be exhibited to COM
pete for Zone, National and Interna-
tional sweepstakes trophies.
Those who rae planning to attend
the Exposition may look forward with
confidence to pleasant and profitable
experience. Two years will intervene
between this Exposition and the one
held in Columbus, Ohio, in 1911. This
has given the management time and
opportunity to prepare show at CO.
lumbia that will far surpass any expo
sition of the kind previously held-a
grand roundup of all State agricul-
tural meetings and shows; the best
IN thought, the best in exhibits. 1t
summarizes, in graphic form, the
agricultural progress of the nation.
