Big serieo Dope
 Now that the National Commission has decided that the worlds series wnI begin next Friday at Philadelphia interest in tho annual classic is be- ginning to boil.
 The second game of the series will also be played at Philadelphia, on Sat urdey. October g.
 The teams then 60 Go Braves field Boston. on October n and 12, for the third and fourth games, with the fifth game at Philadelphia October 13 and the sixth game at Boston on October .14..
 The best umpires in the two parent leagues have been selected to oilic- fate. They are Klem and Rigler of the National and Evans and OLoughiin, of the American.
 Speculation on Outcome
 Speculation on the outcome of the worlds series is being indulged in at lively rate. Whether Alexander win be able to stand the strain of bear ing the burden of the twirling assigned for his team is a moot question. Sup porters of the Philies' chances are counting on Chalmers Go help out with at least one victory. while Mayer and possibly Rixey, are figured to be in a position to stand In the breach should one be created by the fall down of either of the stellar selections. Lu- derus and Cravath are the hitters up- on whom Moran is resting his confi- dence to offset the efforts of such men as Speaker, Hooper and the oth- CT siuggers of the Boston combina- ton.
 Baseball fans who place their con- fidence in the Boston Red Sox point to the probability that Shore. Foster and Leonard. the probable Boston starters in the box. win be able to hold the Philadelphia batsmen in check

Frederick, who owns n 25O-acre farm on
River Road, near here. was shot dead
early to-day while in his corniield.
His assailant was Leonard Riker, his
brother-in-law. The murder was the
elimination of family feud which has
lasted since Riker married Rachel
Frederick, the dead mans sister, about
twenty years ago.
R!ker is n manufacturer OF golf leaf
Early this morning he told his wife he
was going to his shop for few MIN
utes. The building IS few hundred
feet in the rear of the Riker nome,
which adjoins the Frederick property.
From an upstairs window Mrs. Rlker
saw that instead of going ~ the shop
her husband had headed for the FRED
erick farm. She watched him climb the
fence and start across the field, and
noticed her brother silhouetted against
the sky as he was hoeing industriously
In a corn patch on a hilltop beyond.
Five minutes later four revolver
shots brought Mrs. Riker hurrying TO
the back door. Her husband was walk
ing slowly, almost deliberately, II
seemed TO her, back across the field.
Her brother had disappeared.
Riker climbed slowly back over the
fence and came up to the porch.

His wife and daughter. Agnes, aged
eighteen, were bending over him.,
Riker rose as the officer entered.

the revolver. "I'm willing to go with

There were three bullet wounds in
Frederick's body.

Mrs. Thaw and obtained her consent
to an interview.
Mrs. Thaw was seated in front OF the
fire in the living room. The break
fast dishes had just been cleared away.
BY way OF convincing herse II that she
was really having a vacation, she il
wearing her hair in two thick braids
which hang down over her shoulders
Stout shoes, laced high, had been
donned as another bit OF woods attire.
Her white shirtwaist and modishly cut
black suit, however, were undoubtedly
part Of that city life which she de-
plored in her talk.
Russell stood at her elbow, breaking
into the conversation now and then
with bits of information concerning
ducks, mink, canoes and muskrats.
Frequently he stroked his mothers
cheek as she talked and she returned
his caresses even in the midst of her
attempt to explain her problem.
She has no fears of the ordeal of the
witness stand. In fact. there is an
added attraction in the prospect of get
ting off her mind some things she
would like TO say to John B. Stanch-
field. counsel for Thaw.
"Mr Stanchfeld was my attorney at
one time" said Mrs. Thaw. 81 have a

him."
Her eyes sparkled at the thought.

chair.

clared
Courts. lawyers, theatres and hotels
have become irksome to Mrs. Thaw,
she asserted. But still that insidious
fear will creep back and make her
heart shiver. She thinks that public
sentiment is turning in Thaw's favor.
1t is the sympathy for the under dog,
she declares. and is natural. The peo-
pie affected by it. she insists. are not
thinking people. but they are becoming
increasingly numerous.
Another thing that impresses me-"
she said. "s the implicit faith which
Harry and his mother have in the
power OF money. They seem to feel
certain that sooner or later their
money will open the barred doors Of
state hospitals or swing the gates of
Justice so Harry may slip through.
They have spent untold sums of money
and Harry is not yet free; yet their
faith in their money never wavery; it
grows stronger"
She has great confidence in the abil-
itv of Deputy Attorney General Cook.
She feels that he is fighting her bat
tie for her Just now
"He is big. brainy. honest man"
she said. Nobody can buy him. no.
body can scare him. nobody can mud
die him. II looks as though certain
people might find out that in ma

Thaw's counsel.
DR.. Hckling said that Thaw had

that this love had been responsible
for the tragedy in Thaw's life. Since
