 So sure are the Boston Braves of win ming the National league pennautz that the management Is already making worlds series. If the big games are staged in Boston they will take place at Fenway park, the American league field. A large crowd can be accom- nodated there as was indicated during the recent Series with the Giants. During the 1852 worlds series the larg- est attendance at Fenway Park was S4, ,SS4.
 It is not known yet whether this years series will start Friday, October g or on the next day. But the Nation al commission generally likes to start the games as soon as possible in order to avoid 2. cold snap. The Boston owners figure that with a lead Of three and one half games and less than three weeks to play they have little to fear from the Giants. They should reupem- Der, however, that they must increase when they meet the Giants in the next series in New York.

MADE TO KEEP HIS WHISPERS
plre Had to Submit to Power
full Opposition.

A little while ago, says the Vienna
Figaro, the Emperor Francis Joseph
intimated to his barber that it was
his intention to have himself fully
shaved, "after the American fashion"
as he expressed it, and that hereafter
he would go smooth-faced. When
TINS design was communicated to the
Archduke Ferdinand he deemed it
his duty to notify the court of this
intention. We're the venerable chief
of the house of Hapsburg to cause
this long-established Austrian type
of facial decoration to disappear
what deplorable consequences would
follow, for this new style would, out
of Difference to the emperor, be at
once adopted by most Of the officers
of the army. Then there could be
nothing less than the suppression of
an effigy on postage stamps and pho
tographs consecrated and popular
lied by growth of more than sixty
years.
The archdukes and the archduch-
esses, the grand marshal, the grand
master of ceremonies, the grand
chamberlain, all the great dignitaries
of the empire, were called upon to
present to the sovereign the conse-
quences Of his resolution. 1t would
be nothing less than an overturning
of all the traditions of the state.
But old men are obstinate. The
emperor persisted in his resolution,
and it was necessary to give the most
potent reasons to conquer his resis-
lance. So the court chaplain, who is
q prelate of the pope, was called.
Francis Joseph yielded at last He
was made to comprehend that he
should bend his will to the welfare of
the empire, and the whiskers that
frame in his imperial features will
remain as an important part of his
prestige.

COYOTE PROVED A scRAPPER
Fought Four Trained Dogs FuriousIy
in River for More Than
an Hour.

The fighting abilities of coyotes
were demonstrated recently when one
fought more than an hour with four
dogs belonging to Asa Ireton, a
farmer in the east part of this
county, says Salina (Kan.) dis
patch to the Kansas City Star.
After fighting several minutes the
coyote took to the river, and in water
from six to eight feet deep the battle
waged an hour. The coyote swan
about with only its ears and nose
above the water until attacked by
the dogs, and after fighting as long
as the dogs could fight the coyote
would break away and rest by float
ing. When the dogs had recovered
their wind they would make another
attack, working all the time to get
the coyote out of the water. They
were successful two or three times,
but each time the coyote would leap
back into the river.
After an hours work the coyote
was driven away from the river into
the open. There it lasted more than
fifteen minutes against the four
dogs, which have been trained to
work together against coyotes and
bobcats. The dogs were exhausted
as well as badly battered.

And after a cabbage head is eaten
what good is the title? Now, if it
had been franchise or an election

successfully invoked to protect a

Parson Readily Agreed to Preach Flu

The Rev. E. B, who -four

in which they lost 70 men in killed
