the Athletics this afternoon. 10 I. BY
that score they finished tho contract OF
hauling the Athletics from their pedestal.
Here they are. the lords OF baseball

markable campaign tho national sport
ever has known. SO far down among the
common herd even after the season was

wind UP the year by wearing the dadem.
Under the superior playing Of the Braves
tho Athletics great team though they
have been and are. have passed on TO

The climb Of the Braves from the
bottom 10 the pinnacle was the result Of
only one thing sheer merit No chance
champions could have surpassed the Ath-
letics as they did in this series. The
ability. slow TO he recognized though IL

close. but once the Braves got going II
was the beginning OF the end. A sharp,
penetrating rally in the midgame stage
and the victory was theirs The fourth

Braves with their adaptability and
trenchant methods rammed homo the

II was cold and dresry at the nth and
deciding game OF tho city championship
series at the Polo Grounds yesterday. so
the New Yorks evidently took generous
pity on the shiverng handful Of fans and
wound up their season as quickly as pos
sible. They submitted tamely to TO
reverse al the hands OF their Giant con-
querors. particularly TO the buffets OF
Cartoonst Al Demsree. who atontd in a
small way for disappointing season at
their expense The most edifying feature OF
the windup was the speed OF play. The game
was played IN an hour and eight minutes,
which allowed the fifteen hundred faithful

ming settled.

BOSTON IndeId Superior.

The contest was. In fact. errorless
There were fumbles here and there. but
they were on difficult chances, fumbles
on drives which were hits. The Ath-
letics' tnfieJd was effective and steady. but
Il didn't do the dashing work of the
others. Boston's fielding contained much
more of the sensational, several plays
which were carried out with speed and
accuracy being of marked Importance be-
cause men were on bases and a slip at
such times might be costly.
The Athletics culled one or more hits
OF Rudolph In each OF the first five in
nngs. Rudolph was putting the first
ball over often and the Athletics took
20 hitting the first bali BY this plan
they had men on bases in all OF the
first five innings, but partly from Rudolph
being Mt his best with a run threatening
and partly due to support which was
as firm as granite, only one of the base
runners reached home.
From the time the Bostons made their
two runs the Athletics were dead birds
In the Fenway pit. They didn't make a
hit In the last four innings and in that
time only twelve OF them faced Rudolph,
who again did execution with a curve of
varied pace. slow to medium in speed,
which pulled batters out OF position and
made them miss the third strike far.
There was no weak pitching on the
Philadelphia side. Quite the contrary.
Shawkey did excellent work, and the
Braves had to make their few hits count.
But as Shawkey couldn't hold the Brvaes
in the NTH and appeared 10 be at the

self does not deny, Is n trihe in the light
of the great work he did In this series
and particularly to-day. His fielding this
afternoon was legerdemain. though he
was only one OF four Boston inhelders
who played their positions with skill as
comely as IL was effective.
Rudolph pitched the Bostons 20 their
fnal victory. Rudolph is a nervy pitcher.

forded him would have put heart In the

LARSON BROTHERS
RAISE BIG POTATO

August and Fritz Larson, former
MoIiners, now located On a 320-acre
farm near Alberta, CANADA, have just
sent by parcel post TO one of their
Moline friends a potato which weighs
two and one-half pounds and cost 3Oc
for conveyance to this city. 1t was
grown by them On their Canadian
farm.
The Larson brothers were formerly
employed in this city in one of the
local shops, and with many others
went 10 Canada and settled on
farm. In spite of that fact that they
are located many miles from any
railroad they have made success.
