SERIES BEGINS OCT. 9.
Opening Dcte Chosen for Boston Phil
adelphia Championship Games.

Play IN the coming world 5 series
viii start al o clock on the afternoon
of Oct. 8. This was officially announced
by Pres. B. B. johnson Of the Ameri
can league, following a long-distanee
telephone conversation with August
Hermann, chairman Of the National
commission.
johnson said that Oct. s and Oct 9
were considered, but that the latter
date was accepted. Hermann was a bit
opposed to the 8th on account of his
belief that the National league race
might be in doubt, and to hurry the
finish by doubling up the last two
games might work an injustice to the
rennant contenders
As Boston and Philadelphia appear
certain winners at this stage, the com
mission has already decided on two
game series in each city. Two games
will be played in the town whore the
series opens, and two will follow in the
other city, alternating after each sec
ond game until the title is won.
All the details incident to the series
will be arranged this week, when the
national commission meets at Philadel-
phia. Johnson announced that the Phil
adelphia club officials will handle the
tickets for games at Shibe park, and
that the commission representatives
Will be in charge at Boston.

delphia has 10 games left to play and
Boston 9.
Old Nap Lajoie made his 1000 hit

play and presented to the veteran,
iwho probably will not be called upon
to play again this year.

AMUSEMENT NOTES.
PEG c. MY HEART.
Auditorium Attraction Tomorrow Night
Full Of Clever Wit and Humor.

Oliver Moroseo's production of Peg
o. My Heart, the comedy of youth
which will be the attraction at the An
ditorium tomorrow night is said to be
the most popular 45l5y offered in New
York in years. When Mr. Manners
first wrote Peg o. NJ Heart, he had
some difficulty in finding manager
willing to produce. it. Mr.. Morosco, a
westerner with an I'M Manhattan out
look on life, discovered that the play
was q" different, that it was without
discussion of the social evil, and the
everlasting revamping of capital and
labor, and likewise eliminated all ref
erenccs to the sexual siH,. from which
material for plays has been drawn to a
great extent. Mr.. Morosco saw in the
play the relief for which theatre goers
have long been waiting.
Peg Is a selfish little human being
with rhild S outlook on life and a
child S naive ways. The story con

her father in poverty and suddenly in

such fine showing. He says the

Vile. Evers, Rudolph. Tyler and
James. Among other things be says:
- Boston has always been accustomed
to fIst-cIass baseball. 1t has had
more pennant winners than any city
in either Of the big circuits. Franl,

MURPHY HAS RIGHT SYSTEM.
Great Reinsman Purchases Possible
Opponents In Races.

Tommy Murphy, that master reins-
man, is up To his Old tricks-that of
purchasing dangerous contenders to
make sure his own horse can win,
writes Walter +. Hapgood in the Bos.
ton Herald. He bought Belvasia from
the Cox estate not so many years ago
in order TO clear the way for r. T. c.
10 win more money than had ever been
cleaned up by a trotter i'm Il single sea-
son And now he has purchased an
other Cox trained, Boston owned horse
I'm Peter Scott, fearing that Peter
might prove too fast for his own Las
sic McGregor in this seasons big trot-
ting stakes.
With every one of his patrons n mil
lonaire-at least that is the generally
accepted story in the grand circuit
Murphy has the means at his disposal
TO legitimately eliminate the oppOsi-
ton, where a less favored trainer must
go out and fight it from wire to wire.
1t may not be the highest type of
craftsmanship, but it all helps TO keep
the Poughkeepsie teamster at the top
Of the list OF winning drivers.

m PROPER WORKING ORDER.

AN WOANAAAAN0 OANDASA$e
Whenever any great organization or
business is begun the first step is al
ways arrangement, distribution Of
means so that the end may be attained
with the smallest possible expenditure
OF energy and time and material. That
is known as getting things in order"
The same thing applies to the con-
duct of a life.
Before anything can be accomplished
a life must be put into working order.
Above all, the proper expenditure OF
time, "the stuff of which life is made, F"
must be made the subject Of close,
searching Investigation and arrange
ment.
Otherwise nothing worth while can
be done.
1t is trite to say that life passes like
the vanishing Of dream. Guard well
then, against it's waste
In his book "HoW to Live on Tween
ty-four Hours Day" Arnold Bennett
speaks Of
''That innumerable band OF souls who
are haunted more or less painfully, by
the feeling that the years slip by and
slip by and that they have not yet
been able to get their lives into proper
working order"
This does not mean devoting all OF
ones waking hours to work. In q
proper ordering Of ones life the hours
to be devoted to recreation rank with
those dedicated to work. But there
should not be so many of the former.
Bennett says in his book that one OF
the gravest faults to be found with
modern man is his waste Of time. He
lets the hours and the days and the

April was called by the ancients
the lovliest of the months. This was
because it typified both the beauty of
Venus, for whom it was named. and
her philosophy of the uses of beauty.
Venus was the most beautiful creature
who ever lived. She was the Lillian
Russell of mythology. Everybody
wanted to marry her, and speculation
as to her choice was as great as that
with respect to Alice RooseveIt's.
She knocked the wind out of every
body by marrying Vulcan. who did a
general vulcanizing and blacksmithing
business, ard was about the age of
Secretary McAdoo. He was so ugly
that people thronged to his shop to
trade, just as we go to see Eddie Foy.
1t had been supposed that Venus would
marry Apollo or some other ravishing
male beauty. but she took Vulcan and
held the soldering iron in the shop
for him when the automobile season
was on. She explained that she con-
sidered it the duty of every beautiful
woman to marry all ugly man. and
asked how else the average Of beauty
was to be raised. Nobody could say.
and from that day to this beautiful
women have married ugly men. Thus
we have in April the loneliness of
Venus and the thunderbolts of Vulcan,
a combination which meant more to
the anclents than either the flowers
of May or the charms of June.
