Mathematical impossibiIity' IS
Due to Appear This Week
and Kill Three Teams
Chances.
carrigan's Red Sox Must Win
Half Their Remaining Games
to Cinch Their Grip on
League Pennant.
By GEORGE R. HOLMES.

NEW YORK, Sept. 27.-The tiny
thread by which the enemies of the
Phillies and Red Sox still have a
mathematical chance to beat them
out undoubtedly will be cut this
week. The leaders have practically
had the two flags clinched for the
last two weeks, but within the next
seven days our old friend the
mathematical impossibility" will
come to the front and settle the
hash of Brooklyn, Boston, and De-
troit once end for all.
The Phillies have a snap. Nine games
remain on the Philadelphia schedule,
Of which Moran's crew has to win only
three to put the flag away where the
dogs can't get it. After the Phils have
won three. the Dodgers and Braves can
win all theirs and it won't do anybody
any good but the magnates. Judging
by the wav the Quaker City crowd has
been going the last week. winning three
games out of nine will be pretty soft.
Granting that the Braves and Dodgers
do not lose a game from now on. and
then will he.
Team. Won. Lost. Pct
Philadelphia ................ ss 20 .om
Boston Observation-Disclosures. s. .569
BROOKLYN ...............''... % o. '~o
This. of course. will not be the final
standing as the Phils have games to
play with Brooklyn and Boston. 1t Is
possible for the clan of Moran to clinch
the remnant Thursday. in Boston.
The Red Sox must win half their
games to absolutely nail the pennant
to the mast BY playing fifty-fifty
ball Boston will win the chase by seven
points. even should the Tigers win all
their remaining games In that event
the final score will read:
Team Won LOST fCa:

The last week has seen Just hard
driving by Carrigan and Moran as did
the sweltering weeks when the Tight
was the hardest The Phillics played
nine games the past week, of which
they won seven. The Red Sox played
seven, Of which they won six.

editor to apply? do not want a

A Good Meeting Comes to Close.

The revival meeting at the Baptis,
church came to close Sunday night
last when The pastor, J. A. Ansley, ad-
ministered The ordinance of Baptism
to twenty four candidates. Eight 9th
ers were received by letter and By res
.oration, making total OF thirty two
additions to the membership of the
Baptist church.
DR.. Fort preached his final sermon
on Thursday night and left for Nash.
Vile, Tenn, his home, on Friday
morning. His splendid sermons won
for him the admiration and esteem oi
all who heard him, while his afable
manper and genial personality won for
him large place in the affections OF
our people.
Or. Fort is one of the most popular
and successful Ministers our commun-
i.y has ever been privileged to hear.
We believe that his labors in our midst
have left deep and lasting influence
for good upon the community.
Although quite young man. he is
pastor OF one of the largest and strong
est churches in the Southern Baptist
Convention. Under his administration
the first Baptist church of Nashville
has surpassed all its former records,
and leads the Baptist churches OF Ten
nessee in its gifts to missionary and
benevolent objects.
Our people retain only the pleasant
est recollections of Dr.. Fort. His
methods are few from Objectionable
features or seasotionalism. No harsh
or unkind words escaped his lips. We
shall be glad to have him return to
Manning at some future time.
DR.. Fort expressed the warmest ap-
pre- citation OF the cordial reception Civ
en- him by the people OF all denomina-
tions. the many courtesies shown him,
and the splendid congregations that
attended his services.
