safe bet that if they gave him three

come out on top.
And now see what Joe has done to
the regulations of our best experts.
Through a combination of bases on
balls, good baserunning and favors
from the umpires, the SOx counted
four times in the first inning yester-
day, Detroit having failed to score in
their half.

Umn And right then Joe suffered
from a rush of runs to the plate, and
with one out in the third inning Man
ager Callahan told him to go away
from this: here place.
Possibly the unusual position he
was in was responsible for JOe's inef-
fectiveness. He didn't know how to
pitch when in the lead, seldom hav-
ing enjoyed that distinction.
Scott and zWoIfgang took turns in
finishing the game. They were claw

end of nine innings the opposition
had registered Is. hits. good for "a

When eight runs fail to win for
the SoX we suppose it is customary
to hunt an alibi. Scoring eight times
is such an unusual occurrence for
the Hose that we are in the same
boat with Benz. We don't know
what to do.
But there certainly isn't chance
for an alibi. The locals were licked

FAMINE THREATENED
Germans are Facing Grave Food
Problem in Brussels-May be
Revolt.

London, Sept. 30-The scarcity of
food in Brussels has raised a grave
problem, according to C. R. Hawkln,
who has just returned from Belgium
where he completed arrangements
to transfer number of wounded
Belgian soldiers to England.
The situation in Brussels is one
of great uncertainty, said Mr.. Haw-
kin. "There is the gravest danger OF
starvation. Food is scarce and lSO,
900 people are applying for rations
which the German administration is
finding it difficult to supply. There IS
the further danger that the working
men of the city may rise in revolt
Mr.. Hawkin was greatly impress
sed by the spirit of the Belgian
troops at Antwerp. Regarding condl-
tions there he said;
Every night a sortie is made, and
every morning brings its quota of
dead and wounded, sometimes as
many as 1000 making a heavy drain
on the garrison, but the usefulness
of these expeditions cannot be eNag-
oerated The German outposts are re-
| ported as almost terrorized, not a
night passing without some of their
supply trains being blown up. Al
these incidents tend to upset the
careful planned arrangements OF

Lierre, according to message to

people at first hid in the cellars, but
subsequently fled to Antwerp, being
joined by fugltlvcS from the sur

Petrograd, Sept. 30-The German
army, heavily REINFORCED, is battl-

General Rennenkampf in the terri

The objective of the Germans is the

driven.
It is stated that the Russians have
made material gains all along the
