1t was a mediocre game, this first
of the big series, for despite the few
errors of commission, there were sew
eral of omission and two or three
plays which will go down in baseball
history as tinged with an ivory hue.
Strangely enough it was the Red Sox,
veterans in battling for the highest
honors of the game, who were guilty
of the slips. although the offending
individuals were new members of the
team.
Hoblitzel Asleep.
Big Hobby Hoblitzel, first base
guardian for the Sox, ANONYMOUSLY
ended a first inning attack by his
teammates when he calmly lapsed into
Slum berland off his home station and
was caught almost flatfootcd by a
quick toss from Alexander to Luderus
for the third out Hooper was on
third bSae at the time and Lewis was
at bat. When he was given his de-
layed chance in the second inning
Lewis shot a singing single between
short and third.
This play hurt the chances of the
Sox materially, but it was in the eight
inning that the game was tossed away
beyond all hope of recall when young
Scott, at short for the visitors, stooC
transfiXed as he watched Barry make
a wonderful stop of a drive from Ban

st. Marys, Kan, Oct 9.-In one of
the hardest fought battles ever seen
on the local field, the heavy Warrens-
burg team defeated the locals by the
score of 33 to O. The teams fought
hard up to the third quarter, when
Warrensburg scored the first on a
forward pass. In the second half,
long end runs by Pat Kins and sensa-
tional forward passes by Taylor and
Winburn scored four touchdowns for
the visitors
Gatz, Dewitt, Gavin and Busy, for

BOARD WILL USE
SCHOOLS AS POLLS
Plan to Try Two in Each Bor-
ough at Coming Election
Would Cost 100000.

1t would cost about 100000 70
use schoolhouses exclusively for poll
ing places, according to Edward F.
Boyle, president OF the Board Of Elec-
tons. That figure he considers pro-
hibitive, but, under a law passed last
winter permitting the use of such
buildings for election purposes, the
board will use two schoolhouses in
each borough at the coming election to
test the scheme.
This statement was made yester-
day in the investigation OF the Board
Of Elections being made by Leonard
NJ. Wallstein, Commissioner Of Ac-
counts. There are many matters, Mr..
Boyle said. that would have to be
thrashed out with the Board of Edu-
cation, such as smoking in the schools
and having the janitors work over
time.
President Boyle agreed with the
other members of the board and the
heads of the various political organi-
"ations who had testified previously
that the bipartisan boards of cleo
ton officials chosen by the heads Of
the dominant parties were the hest
system. He did not think much Of
the suggestion that a separate set
Of officials count the votes after the
close of the polls.

Mrs. Emmeline Baker Hints at

Mrs. Emmeline Baker, head of the
Siegel depositors, was still militant
yesterday. though the vague threat
above was all she said about the future
of the department store owner who is
spending ten months in Rochester Jail.
Mrs. Baker came in from her garden,
where she had been gathering radishes,
thin, sad-eyed woman, in shabby
clothes. Her home is an old, dingy
house with pillared porch, one Of the
type that serve to remind fat dwellers
Of their former blessings.
do you think we can give up the
fight after all the trouble we took to
get our association into working or
DER" Mrs. Baker said. "There were
people OF all nationalities; many could
not speak English. We had to mix
them all together and work hard before
we got a dough that was workable.
We know one another now, and we
know how all have suffered. Why, we
have eight insane, several suicides and
any number who had 10 spend last win

.CONVlCTS PLEDGE
LOYALTY TO ALLEN
"Real Honor System" Is
Monument to Slain Wife
of Joliet Warden.

Joliet, ILL.,. June 23.-Despite the
murder of his wife by prison trusty,
Warden Aliens confidence in the honor
system is still mistaken. Following
the receipt of a letter of sympathy
signed by the seventeen hundred con-
victs. the Warden declared his faith in
"his boys" The letter said in part
Caesar had his Brutus; Rome its
Nero; Jesus the Just his Judas. as it
il in your case. Come back 10 US, and
we will build up a real honor system
which will be most fitting memorial
to your dear departed wife memorial
more enduring than bronze or marble"
The finding of Mrs. Aliens pocket
book, containing several hundred dol
lars and valuable jewelry, caused the
penitentiary officials to-day to abandon
a theory that robbery might have been
the motive for the murder last Sunday
morning.
II was not learned until to-day that
the victims purse was missing, and
search for it was begun, with the result
that the black leather pocketoook was
found among the debris of the charred
bedroom where Mrs. Aliens body was
discovered.
The penitentiary officials expressed
the opinion tonight that Mrs. Allen
was killed either for revenge or as the
result of an assault, and that one Of
the convicts under suspicion knows
more about the crime than he has told.
Warden Allen and a corps OF peni-
Tertiary guards worked throughout the
day gathering testimony for presenta-
tion to the coroner's jury when that
body resumes the inquest tomorrow.
II was planned again to question
Convicts Campbell and Edwards before
the inquest was closed.
An armed guard patrolled outside the
prison gates to-day for the first time in
several years.
