home team gave the Colonel two addi-
tional runs in the fourth inning, when 1t
seemed he was destined to be winner
| until the visitors took their eighth turn
| at bat Gamer. first UP In this frame, con-
| nected with one Of the left handlers
| slippery slants and sent 1t over the in
| field for a single. Duffy Lewis, already
| credited with driving in two of the Red
| Sox victories, had spent a very qulet
and uneventful afternoon up to this time
He hadn't caught hold Of the ball at ALL
But on this spectacular occasion he met
fast one squarely and the ball did not
hesitate in its fight until 1t landed n
most unwelcome visitor In the very laps
of the loyal rooters in the grounds.
This hit made it possible for Hooper's
homer to give the finishing touch to the
game and the series. But the Phily fans
were as game as their players had been
and cheered Lewis for his batting
| prowess In the fatal ninth, when Hooper
sent his second homer to the crowd, the
ipoters who groaned with the sure
knowledge Of defeat, did not deny to the
, sturdy Californian similar need of
praise.
FOSTER WINS SECOND GAME.
George Foster of Bokoshe, Okla, won
his second game Of the series Foster
got a warm reception to-day from the
very start. but he stuck grittily to his
task and finally withstood the most
furious fire the Phillies had sent through
the series. Smashed and hammered in
the first and fourth. Foster was always
lighting back. He nsver lost his head,
heded splendidly and was always a dan
| gerous factor at the bat. He gave as
, game an exhibition Of twirling as has
ever been seen in any league and there
were few partisans in the Philly stands
| who begrudged him the victory the long
| delayed home runs Of tho series threw
his way.
The Phllies made nine hits off the
dminutive Foster for a total of 12 bases.
| This hitting was good emo gh to have
won any Of the games that went the way
Of the Sox except the contest to-day.
No world series has been cleaner The
men of both teams won the hearts Of
the fans both here and in Boston by
their gentlemanly conduct on the field
and the sportsmanlike manner in which
they went about their. work.
LITTLE BASE RUNNING.
Ono notable feature of the series was
that base running seemed a lost art. Both
the Boston and Philadelphia catchers
made the runners look like truck horses
nearly every time one started from first
to second. To-day four Philadelphia play
ers and one member OF the Sox tried to
steal. All were cut down while many feet
from the coveted bag. The catching Of

claimed God for His father, and that
he would do good on the Sabbath day.
Wonderful for the way in which He
taught; for its simplicity and clear
ness, and adaptation to the individ-
uaI. You do not anywhere find Him
seeking the multitude, but~He never
avoided the individual. And His
teaching was always adapted to the
comprehension of those whom he
taught!
1t is said that the common people
heard Him gladly, and this shows
that they understood what He said.
He put the cookies on the lower shelf.
No man had to take dictionary with
him when he went to hear the SER
mon on the mount.
A man once asked: Whats the
secret of your success, Mr.. Sunday"
said: 1--WE got something to say and
l say it, And that isn't egotism. l
never say ''disintegrated," but rot
ten; you're not 'prevaricator," but
a liar" like to see fellow preach
so all can understand him, no mat
ter if he is skunk, jackass or what
he is.
Jesus taught that all would be lost
who did not believe in Him. l have
seen multitudes of saved people, but
l have yet to see one who did not get
his salvation through believing in
Christ. We've got a lot of star gaz-
ers and a lot of fools in all ages in
the worlds history.
Find the place in this world that
comes nearest to being like hell it
self, and you will find it filled with
those who are haters of Jesus Christ,
and find the place in this world that
is most like heaven, and you will find
it filed with those who are in love
with Jesus Christ. You can't argue
it. Go into saloons, gambling heIls,
you'll find the people who hate Jesus,

wonderful that He should have been
betrayed into the hands of those who
sought His life by one of His own
trusted disciples, and wonderful that
He should have been sold for so low,
a price. Wonderful. TOO, that He
should have been condemned to
death in the way He was, by both the
religious and civil authorities, and on
the testimony of false witnesses, in
the name of God, when all the laws Of
God were defiled in the trial. 1t was
wonderful that He was tormented
and tortured so cruelty before being
sent to the cross and that He should
have been put to death was also won
derful on the day of the passover,
thus Himself becoming the real pass
over to which the passover lamb had
so long pointed.
The great publicity of His death
was also wonderful 1t is doubtful
if any other death was ever witnessed
by so many people. Hundreds of
thousands of people were in Jeru-
salem, who had come from every
where to attend the passover. The
sky was darkened, and the sun hid its
face from the awful scene. A great
earthquake shook the city, the dead
came out of their graves and went
into the city, appearing unto many,
and the vale of the temple was rent,
from top to bottom. And remember
that up to that time no eye had been
allowed to look behind that veil ex-
cept that of the high priest, and then
only once a year, on the great day of
atonement.
He had foretold it to His disciples,
and had done so frequently, always
saying whenever He spoke of His
death, that He would rise again on
the third day, and yet every one of
them appeared to forget all about it,
and not one of them thought of going
to the sepulchre on the morning of
