Pitcher Shore Attracts Attention.

No young pitcher who has broken
into the major leagues this year has
attracted as much attention as Shore,
the Boston recruit obtained from the
Baltimore team of the International
league. Everywhere Shore makes his
appearance he is picked as being the
coming sensation of the baseball world.
Shore was a Giant recruit at one
time. He is six feet three inches tall.
Those who have watched him work
are loud in his praise, and predict that
he will do much to help the Red Sox
to pennant next season.

Brown is said to lack punch and is
therefore very weak on attack.
Washington and Jefferson ran up a
record score Saturday against Dickinson
when they scored los points.
Bender and Plank have already
pitched in four world s series and have
been winners in three of them.
Connie Mack plans to start all
his regulars today to get them in condi-
ton for the world s series games.
Lehigh sprang a. big surprise on
Carlisle when the Indians were forced
to take he short end of the score.
James of the Braves has won q
and lost six games and Rudolph of the
same team has won - and lost eight.
Fumbles kept down the score of the
Williams Vermont game to TO 0 in

RESULTS

Open Play Seems to Be Proper This
Year-Dartmouth and Tufts Ran
Up Very High Scores.

Open play seems to be the proper
football style this year. Cambridge saw
a whole lot of it Saturday, not from
Harvard, but from Springfield college.
The. Young Mems Christian association
boys tried very little outside of the for
ward pass. They had four good
chances to score on Harvard, but fail
ed. The crimson played waiting
game and by taking advantage of mis-
plays got Al points. Yale was fancy in
its successful brush with Virginia,
showing plenty of open work Cornell
was beaten again, and Pennsylvania
got it, too. Colgate, cOnquerOr of Cor
nell, is the team Yale sadly remem-
bers.- The "Aggies 3, defeated Holy

TORTURE FOR CoNvIcTs.
The Cruel Methods In Use In Portu-
gals Mozambique Colony.

Mozambique being one Of the prin-
cipal convict settlements Of the Portu-
guese government. many poor crea-
lures make desperate dashes for liber-
ty only to be devoured by the sharks
before the eyes of their guards. 1t
was no uncommon event to hear the
fortress gun boom forth, announcing
that another poor soul was running
this CHASTITY gantlet of the sharks soon
er than exist like a. half starved dog
In deplorable surroundings.
There being no capital punishment
under Portuguese law, many of the
conyicts were of course of the most
desperate type-notorious murderers,
and so on. Some of them. after a
certain time and as a reward for good
conduct were allowed to work on
parole, leaving the fortress in the
morning and returning at night, ply
ing their various trades to their own
advantage. Others of a more danger
Gus character might be seen working
in chains on the road, guarded by
slovenly half caste sepoys.
Outside the dungeon cells were
whipping posts, over which poor crea-
lures had to kneel, their arms and
legs being bound to iron rings, while
lashes were administered with Chi
cote, a strip Of hippo hide. Palma
toria was another torture used. AL
though Illegal to Portuguese law, it is
nevertheless still widely used, causing
eXcruciating pain. The implement
employed is a fat, spoon shaped
heavy piece of hard wood about an
inch and half thick, with a handle
eighteen inches long, the spoon head
being perforated with five holes. The
person to be punished extends the
palms OF his hands. and sharp. regu-
lar blows are administered. which ut
each stroke suck up the flesh. The
bravest can rarely stand more than
thirty blows. fer the tortured hands
swell to double their natural size.
The sentence is often several hundred
blows. the punishment continuing on
succeeding days until Justice is sat
isfed.-Sibyl Belcher in Wide World
Magazine.

DAVIES PLEASES CONNIE MACK
Starred as Pitcher, Asks Outfield
Berth, Gets It, Makes Good.


One of the reasons that the Athletics
have been making such wonderful
record of victories in the last month is
not even suspected by the majority of
baseball fans. 1t is owing to the pres
ence on the team of Il young collegian,
signed as 4 pitcher, but converted to
an outfielder. Lloyd Davies, the south
paw from Amherst college.
Any poor work the worlds cham
pions had been guilty of was due to
the let down of the outfield. Oldring
was not going along at his accustomed
clip, and Eddie Murphy was not only
fielding poorly, but also reaching first
less often than usual. Davies joined
the team as a pitcher. but after pitch
ing one game, which he won by his
own slashiEg hitting, he coolly told
Manager Mack that lie thought he was
cut out for an outfielder
Mack took him at his word and sent
him out with the tielders in early prac-
tice for couple of days. His han
ding of flies and his throwing CON
WINGED Connie that if he could hold
up his end in hitting there would be
nothing to fear from let down of the
outfielders.
Just about that time Oldring was
hurt in collision and Davies had his
chance to slime. lie played the place
like Il veteran, hit the ball as hard as
any man on the team, not even except
ing Collins, and made Il big hit with
the fans by his jaunty manner and
sure judgment of the ban.

Allened Scottish kinns.

Jests innumerable have been shower
ed upon the hundred portraits of al
legged Scottish kings, with Il strong
family likeness, especially about the
nose. which adorn Holyrood-kings, as
Scott says, who. if they ever flourish

before the invention of painting in oil
