Victory; Mack Keeps
Opinion to Himself

PHILADELPHIA. oct. s.-Here
are the pre-series statements given
today by the leaders OF the rival
teams that meet tomorrow III the hrst
battle for the 1914 championship OF
the baseball world:
BY George 7. Stallings, manager OF
the Boston Braves:
we expect TO win the series. Right
in our present ICrTn L don't think that
any team can stop US. 1 realize the
Athletics stack up right now as one
Of the greatest teams in baseball his
tory, but their prOwess does not
frightea us. We are chuck full OF
confidence and confidence will count
for a lot in our favor. My pitchers
arc in fine fettle and the team as a
whole IS 10 the best form OF the year.
I look for Charley Deal TO ably fill the
hole that was made at third through
the injury TO Red Smith. I don't care
TO predict how many games the series
will run but I feel certain that when
IT is all over we'll be champions Of
the world"
By Connie Mack. manager OF the
Philadelphia Athletics:
predicting is not in my line. I
may have my own opinion as to the
ultimate outcome Of this series, but II
so / shall keep 1t to myself. However,
will say that my boys are in grand
shape. The pitchers are working
right again and the boys are hitting
and fielding UP to true form. II we
don't win the series we will not have
any alibis to offer, as I will put into
the field the very best team have"

Special Correspondence.
NEW VOPK -Won1d

NEW YORK.-Would a woman
rather be an unhappy wife than a
spinster who is merely contented?
Would a woman sacrifice peace and
comfort for the privilege of lacking
Mrs" to her name?
These questions raised by Coningsby
Dawson in his new book, THE Raft,
has called forth a storm of protest
from the feminists who sternly deny
the implied charge that woman can
not be happy in single blessedness.
The keynote of the book is found
in the heroine's lament, I'VE are two
girls adrift on a raft Over there's
the land Of marriage with all the little
children, the homes and the husbands;
unless some of the men see us and
put off in boats to our rescue Wen
be swept into the hunger of mid
ocean"

FACTORY SUPERINTENDENT.

ATLANTA, Ga, Dec. 1S.-A new
effort to save the life Of Leo NJ. Frank,
sentenced to be hanged January 22,
for the murder of Mary Phagan, was
begun in Federal district court here
today. 95
Attorneys for Frank filed a peti-
ton for his release on ,habeas Q

victed without due process OF law
and is being detained Illegally.
To Make Appeal,
II the petition is denied, the at.
Lorneys said, appeal will be taken al.
rect to the United States supreme
court.
The petition alleges that the pris-
oner's constitutional rights were VIC
lated by return of a verdict during his
absence from tho court room; that
the Jury was Influenced by popular
demonstrations, and that the trial
court therefore, lost Jurisdiction IN
lie case before a conviction was reach
ed. Federal Judge Newman announ-
ced he would hear arguments on the
petition Saturday.
Previous Effort Failure.
A previous effort to bring the case
tefore the Federal supreme court
failed when both the state courts
and the supreme court refused TO
Grant a writ Of error for a review.
That action also was based on allega-
lions that Franks constitutional rights
mad been violated but ii did not nVoiVe
a habeas corpus proceeding.
1'oday's petition sets forth that
Frank knew nothing OF the agree.
rnent OF his attorneys to waive his
presence when a verdict was receiv.
ed and that his attorneys could not
legally act for him where such a right
was involved. (

FARMER JOHNSON ATTENDS COLLEGE

Tester. Mixing fertilizers for the
field and spray materials for the or,
chards, right before u eyes, took out
a lot of the mystery connected with
these subjects and made them seem;
simple and easy. OF course in a short
period like a single week CLASSES must
be hurried and lectures must be con-
densed, but a wide.awake man with a;
note book can get a very good idea
OF many important processes and
principles.
When they wanted to show us how
to dress a mutton SO that the carcass
would not taste strong, they simply
rugged up a classroom in a barn and
an expert killed and dressed an animal
while we looked on-explaining the
various points to be noted as he pro
ceeded. When it comes to fixing in.
mind the ideal type OF dairy cow,
beef animal, hog or sheep there is
nothing to compare with a look at the
live animal itself. You might talk and
describe and explain all day long with
out much success but just give me a.
good look at the animal itself and a
little explanation to go with 1t, and
the mental picture will stay with me
long after I've forgotten even the,
name OF the man who lectured to me.
But, now, don't misunderstood me.
regarding the men who 1ectured. I.
want to say that they are as clever
and as human" a lot OF men al It
has ever been my privilege to meet.
They seem to appreciate and under
stand our farm problems and to want
to give us sympathetic practical help
rather than cold; %impersonalE criticism.
In, fact, I made a numbertof acquaint-
ances, both among professors and.
farmers from all parts of the state.
that ] shall remember for years. That
is one reason why l am going back to
the college again, January 4th to- 9th,
to! attend Farmers Week this year. l
think I shall make It a rule to set aside
a week for the College of&AgrIculture
every winter. The trip; and the lee.
lures and demonstrations, together
with the agreeable associations give
all the elements needed for a5pleasant.
and profitable winter vacation.
