Will Be the Way Braves and
Athletics Will Line Up in
the World Series
MANY OF MACK'S MEN

While Manager Stallings'
Has a Team of Com
parative Youth

New York, Oct. 3-When the Philadel'
phia Athletics and the Boston Braves &c
into action in the 23d series for the
worlds championship baseball honors
the diamond campaign will be fought
out by teams which represent the old
and new in the national sport. Although
the average age of the leading players
of the two combinations is not widely
separated, the Athletics machine is so
| famous and its success so striking that
it appears old by comparison with the
squad that George Stallings whipped in
shape in midsummer and thus won a
pennant for Boston Taking 20 odd
players of the two teams as basis it
will be found that the average age Of
the Athletics is 26h years and the
Braves 24a4 years.
While less than two years in average
age separates the teams, the extremes
are more marked in the Athletics than
the Braves. Plank, Bender, Coombs,
Gliding, Lapp and Thomas are all past 30
but the ma iority of those who will fig
ure in the daily lineup are several years
under this age. The three youngest

the triple alliance will be in existence
after the war. IL has been proved, the
writer of this letter says, that Italy is
not qualified to be an ally Of Austria,
therefore to remain isolated would be a
crime against the country, as it would
mean supreme danger in the future. The
paper expresses the hope that if Signor
Salandra remains as premier he will free
Trent, Trieste and Dalmatia and join
them to Italy, thus browning the labors
of the makers of Italy and completing
the work of Cavour.

General Staff Tells of Re-
verses for the Kaiser's
Soldiers

Petrograd, Oct. 3.--The general stat
has given out the following official com
munication:
1.-The Russian troops have continued
TO repulse the enemy from the govern
ments of Suwalki and Lomza. The en-.
gagement has been very fierce west OF
Symno.
1.-The German troops that were attack
ing Ossowetz are retreating hastily to
the north. Considerable forces of the
enemy. OF which the bulk arrived from
the west, are concentrating in the dis
tricts west of the government of Piotr-
kow and Kielee.
The Russian cavalry and vanguard
are recommending energetically through
all that region, impeding through vigor-
Gus attacks the movement OF the enemy.
The Germans always endeayor to use the
highways, in Russian territory, because
the other roads, being rough, paralyze
their artillery trains.
AN attack by the Russian cavalry
against the German vanguard in front of
Andrew, and marching on Kielce, was
crowned with great success. The Ger
man infantry was caught unawares and
is retreating in disorder, pursued by the
Russian cavalry.
1.-THE bombardment of Ossowetz did
damage to only few private dwellings
and a few telephone lines, as the garri-
son was sheltered by numerous concrete
walls.
THE offensive by the Russian troops
marching through the forests OF August
owo was not covered by the artillery.
South OF Augustowo, hand to-hand en-
gagement took place. 1t was particu
larry fierce in the semi-circle between the
Bialbrozeg basin, which was crossed by
a Russian column, and the Augustowo
canal near the Borki basin. The issue
of this engagement was decided by an
attack from Augustowo.
Northwest of the forest of Augusta.
wo. the Russians were compelled to at
tack the rear guard of the Germans
through numerous defles and in fortified |
positions, where the Russian infantry
received great help from its heavy artil |
lery, which caused great losses to the
enemy, who were dislodged from the en-
trenchments and retired under our fire.
The battle is proceeding over an ex-
tensive front the Germans occupying pc.
sitions near Marianpol and south of
Stshutshin.
I'm the vicinity of Wresouch the
ground is very rough, making it difficult
for the troops to keep their battlelines.
This has resulted in series of individual
engagements.
"The advance Of the Russian troops is
meeting with success everywhere"
