STEERING GEAR BROKE.
Wilton Mans Car Plunged Through
Fence, But He Escaped.

Milton, N. D., Oct. 5.-Joe Fraye
had a close escape from serious in
jury, if not certain death, while going
to Osnabrook in his Ford car. While
turning a sharp corner at an average
speed, a knucklo holding one end of
the steering rod gave way, making
the machine entirely uncomfortable
as far as steering was concerned.
Before the brakes could be applied
and the car stopped, il had dashed
across the ditch and through a two
strand barbed wire fence. The bot
tom wire caught the lower lamps and
was snapped in two after doing some
damage to the machine, but the upper
wire caught on the windshield rods
and slid over the shield, but FORUM
ately caught under the steering wheel,
and the only injuries Mr.. Fraye re-
ceived were a couple Of quite badly
scratched hands, where the wire
caught them while he vas hanging on
to the useless steering wheel. His
clothes were also quite badly torn,
and the machine damaged to some ex-
tent, but he congratulates himself
that the accident did not result far
more seriously.

May he was taken to a hospital in

THE
final GUNS
League Battles for 1914
Will Be Fought rs ii Week.
and Then the Series.

New York, Oct. 5.-Last shots will
be fired this week in the major
league battles of 1914. The decisive
engagements have been fought and
the present activity is confined to
rear guard actions. Even these are
on a diminishing scale and in mid
week a truce will be called until Fri
day when the Philadelphia American
league victors, and the Bos.Ons, con.
querors in the National league will
begin their meeting to decide the fl
nal supremacy of The year.
Speculation over the probable out
come of the worlds championship
series, now hat the teams have been
definitely picked and all arrange
ments for the big event made, has al
most entirely superseded discussion
of the regular league campaigns. In
the mind of the average baseball fan,
such problems as whether Plank will
be able to outpitch Tyior, how Bender
and Rudolph compare and if James
will prove superior in ability to
ShaWkey or some of the other COM
paratively new recruits that Connie
Mack may put in, far transcends in
interest the placing of the fourteen
big league teams which finished be-
hind the leaders.
Nevertheless in several cities d.
rectly interested, the cleaning up OF
the years schedule claims a certain
amount of attention. In New York,
for instance, the Giants, beaten by
the Braves for the flag after one OF
the most thrilling races in baseball
history, are possible candidates for a
still lower berth. st. Louis has been
pushing hard, but only managed to get
an even break with Chicago today,
leaving McGraw's men a game and a
half advantage, which they may be
able to hold.
Chicago and Brooklyn also are close
together, but the last named club has
one of the slimmest opportunities Of
finishing in the first division. Brook
lyn, Pittsburgh, Philadelphia and Gin
cinnati is likely to he the order Of the
second division clubs.
In the American, Detroit and Wash
ington are so close together that it
will take the Washington game OF
this week to decide the occupant Of
third place. The Detroits, who end
ed their season today virtually tied
with the Nationals, seem to have the
better chance to take the berth, as
Washington must win two or three
from Boston to forge ahead. st.
Louis and New York are both flirting
with fifth place with the possibility
that either may capture it.
Aside from these minor contests,
the regular play of the year is as good
as ever. With their decision, the

Suffrage Speakers Will Give Their
Opinion cf Congressional Op.
-. aannn&e In Nine. STATES o--

New York World, Sept. 10, 1914:
1--WE are going to tell the people
just what we think of the democratic
party" said Miss Alice Paul this ev-
ening, following a meeting of the
Congressional Union for Woman Suf-
frage, at the home of Col. and Mrs.
Henry F. Blount, when a campaign
was launched against the National
y mocratic party.
"We are not going to fight individ-
uals," Miss Paul continued, "but the
democratic party. We will show Ma.
jority Leader Underwood and Mr..
Henry of the rules committee that We
can do some effective work against
the organization of the house."
Before the meeting adjourned plans
for the fall campaign were adopted
and speakers chosen who will start
out tomorrow to try to defeat demo
cratic candidates for congress in the
Iine states where women have a say
IN elections.
The plan is for the women speak
ers to appeal to the women voters n
the western suffrage states to with
draw their support from the national
democratic party until that party
ceases blocking the national suffrage
amendment.

the wiles Of Big Business, you will
have to give up your farmers organ

Today they are it's enemies and
rest assured it is going to fight them.

Mr.. James, of Palmyra. came to

reputation as an oyster eater In
frequent trials he has established

oysters faster than two big league
openers could hand 'em out.
James led good race up to the
