games should be required to decide the
title, with four played in Boston and
three in Philadelphia and the teams
play to park capacity, the total at
tendance would surpass 100000. The
record to date is 25l ,o0l, made in the
1912 series between the Boston Red Sox
and the New York Giants, when eight
games were played before the Red Sox
won the championship.
Under almost any conditions it is rea
sonable to assume that close to 100000
spectators will witness the play for the
1915 title, thus bringing the grand to-
tai for the worlds series under the con.
troll of the national commission up to
100000 in round figures. Since the
first contest under this regime in 1908
III series have been played with total
of GA games and an attendance of $780,
567. To these figures must be added the
attendance at the earlier matches, of
which few accurate records exist.
From 1884 to 1902 there were IL Sc
ries played with total Of so games
and it has been estimated by old-time
fans and players that the average at
tendance at these contests could not
have fallen far short of 5000 per game.
Such being the case, another total of
100000 must be credited to the worlds
series figures, bringing the grand total
up close to l,650,000. Allow 100000 for
the coming play and it will be seen that
before the worlds championship of 1915
has been won the attendance figures
for the entire play for this premier title
Of the baseball world will have passed
The 100000 mark.

new building will be a credit to Wa
tertown and worthy of the city and
the religious body which is erecting
it, but it is not by any means a costly
project or one likely to involve future
debts and hardships.
The members of the church have
responded nobiy to the appeal for
funds, many Of them giving more
than could reasonably be asked or
expected. Presbyterians are accus
toned to bearing their own burdens
and seldom ask assistance of their
friends. 1t is the business of a church
to minister to the community, not
particularly to be ministtered unto.
Because of the present emergency,
the building committee will seek as
sistance from those who are not mem
bers of the Presbyterian church and
the people of the city are asked to re-
spond to the appeal which will be
presented within the next few days
by a representative committee.

 Prepared to begin extensive de- velopmcnt work and to install a big plant as soon as the railroad is con structed from Seward to the Susitna district. a group of Seattle and Alas kan capitalists have bonded a number of quartz claims on the upper reaches of the Susitna river, which it is be- lieved. are the source of the placer gold found in that region. Many oth- CT propositions by which Seward. the terminal of the protected government railroad will be greatly benefited. are being considered by capitalists.

It is a fact however. that the construction Of machine shops engine houses. ter minal freight yards. water tanks. commissary buildings, dwellings for permanent employees, as well as the buildings and plant necessary in con- aectiou with the terminal dock site will require practically all of the land now occupied by the tent camp. aud it will. therefore be necessary to re- move these habitations to the perma- nent site as soon as it is selected.

U. S. LAND OFFICERS
 GIVE COBB APPEARING

The local land officers yesterday or dered a reheariug on June 15. 1915, be- fore them. as to why an extension of time for making a survey of Che Seat CT tract should not be granted to D. l.. Cobb, son of Attorney J. H. Cobb. who formerly held the Scatter tract as mining claim The rehearing is called in pursuance of an order from the commissioner of the general land office.
 Cobb filed an application for patent to the land with soldiers additional script on the first of February 191A and, it is alleged. engaged the local U. S. surveyors to make the necessa- ry surveys The survey was not made by May 6th 1914. as the time limit required. and on May 7th, a number of people moved onto the land and have since erected homes.
