 Failure to hit in the pinches is the reason the Philles lost today.

 Lewis The Hero. '
 .Duffy" Lewis, the hero of yes. terday's battle, earned a few niore' laurel leaves today. 9He saved the game by a remarkable running catch and then won it in the sixth, with s' flashing two-bagger that scored Hobli;zel from first.
 Pat Moran intrustea the pitching chores to George Chalmers, and nc made a wise choice. Chalmers pltch- ed a fine game, and had there been any pinch hitting behind him, ne would have won.
 The PhiIIies' Blunder. Tha philliae this afternoon commit l have been committing since the series bsgan. They have been waiting out the Bostcn pitchers, and the bos.uh pitchers have fooled them.

 If the philles, from the outset Of the series, had gone out to "bust, every bali that came anywhere near 1 them. the series would look dlffsr- entlv than it looks now. The Phillies have the kind of pitching that would have won nine ball games out Of ten with any hitting behind the pitching. But hitting has been minus quallty.

LOSS OF F-4.

It looks just now as If the crew on the submarine F-4 have perished. The boat has been located in 300 feet of water off Honolulu harbor, and it has been there so long that experts think that the crew must be dead. While this is said to be the first acci- dent of the kind in the United States navy it is not the first to occur in other navies. One authority says that in the last ten years there have been sixteen fatal submarine accidents in foreign navies. Great Britain heads the list with six disasters, in which seventy-eight men all told were lost. France has lost four boats at cost oe seventy seven lives, and Germany, Russia, Italy and Japan have each shared in less degree in the worlds submarine losses. But only twice before have so many men gone to their death through the loss of an under sea boat-when the Russian Delfin sank in 1904 and the French Pluviose in 1910.
 There appears to be some doubt as to the number who were on board the F-4 when she went to the bottom, but the figures given have been from twenty one to twenty six. The sub- marine has been in operation for a number of years and all things con- sidered the number of fatalities are not very numerous, but the character of the accidents has been very sad. The crews, unable to help themselves, have been shut in until death relieved
 them of the horrors of the situation.
 Provision is made for raising these vessels when they go down and to give signals when they refuse to rise, but there are times when the machinery refuses to work and when that happens the crew is lost There is much evidence that the submarine is far from perfection; it has it's limi- tations at the best, but it is not to be relied upon. It is built to do certain things but 1t does not always do them 1 and when 1t doesn't the results are ! unpleasant to think about.

A NonWedding Journey.
(New ork Sun. )

People laugh when they say that the best time to take d wedding jour- ney is before the wedding," said a New York woman, but there never was a truer thing said, and divOrces would be much less frequent if that V re the custom, with certain linn itations, of course. I proved it con- clusively during the last summer.
 Tn June last young woman whom I have known since childhood asked me if she could join me in a six months trip my husband and I were about to take overseas. l was glad enough to have her with me, for she is not a young girl and she has money enough to travel properly. Three or four days before we started she asked me if I would object to a certain man making the fourth of the party.
 He was a very nice sort, also with money enough, and as they had been so attentive to each other for a year that their friends had concluded they were sure to marry before a great while I added him gladly, as did my husband, who liked. him very much. Well. we got away in good style on q ship bound for Spain, where we were to spend the first month, and l was as happy as could be.
 con the fourth day out the girl came into my stateroom and to my astonishment put her head on my shoulder and began to cry. l was frightened and wanted to know what was wrong, and between sobs she told me the man she had thought was so nice was getting on her nerves so that she simply couldn't stand it and had to tell somebody or jump ovcr- board.
 ''Iier previous association had been of the usual kind incidental to the cquaintance of two unmarried per- l sons and while he was very nice that way, having him around all tho time l was simply awful, shc said, and | l must help her out of it. or course
 that was easy enough, for. as before, 1 had been keeping myself out of ] their way Now I did all I could
 to keep in their way, and it saved the l girls life till we reached land After that it was q little easier. l and by and by the man, being q son sibe fellow, made it convenient to
 quit our party good friends and went | to Paris. Pm surc and SO is the
 girl, that if they had not gone on the
 trip they would have married. and
 then any body. can imagine what the
 result would have been.
 "1'heirs was a nonweddiny journey and there should be more of them 1 Yes, the war stopped trip and we came home in August. He met her at the boat, but no longer as he1 l possible husband"

wish to take time to think propo- sition over he gives them what they need; then. when that matter is set tied, it is settled. 50 mctliod.cal is he that in any council or conference directed by him you could almost for mulate a schedule of its stages from beginning to end like tha. of rail- road journey, and mark off the inter mediate stations as they are reached and passed.
 In the second place, Scott does not have to depend upon oral questions and answers in conducting business with Indians. He is a master of the sign language, which is common to all tho old hunting tribes and which is known to so few whites that when one advances with that art as a passport they are ready, and usu- ally glad, to treat with them. It is a form of introduction which breaks down all the conventional barriers of race. The use of it throws, as the lawyers would say, the burden Of proof upon the other side, for if is as if the elders of the tribe should say: For ordinary white men we care not: we do not recognize them as friends worthy or our considcra- ton. But here is one of ourselves: he speaks our language; he can think our thoughts, and translate them through his fingers and hands and arms. He can understand what we say in return. The interpreters can- not make fool of him by putting false words into our mouths when we speak to him, or into his mouth when he speaks to us. Let us listen to him. Perhaps he brings US q mes sa gc that will be good for us. If not, we can throw it away, and do as we choose; but if it is good we can trust him, for we shall understand just what it is, tho worst of 1t as well as the best of it. In short Scott s mastery of the sign language creates an atmosphere broadly favorable to his mission even before he has an- nounced the purpose of his coming.

How Gen. Scott Does IL.
(F'rancis F. Lcupp in Boston Tran
 SCript.)

General Scotts success with In dians wherever he has had occasion to negotiate With them is due to more than one cause. First, his personality impresses them. He IS serious in expression, perfectly calm in manner and speaks in a low voice: that is the fashion of the wise men among the Indians themselves. He is direct in approaching subject
 wastes no words, listens attentively to whatever anyone else has to say, and preserves discreet silence till he has all the evidence before him.
 Then, when answer or comment or argument is demanded. he tells the plain truth. Tlc Indians have lit- tie use for euphemisms If they wish to know what is the penalty of murder, they would rather have the frank statement that it is death, than all the rCun6about phrases which can be used to soften the disagree able fact or to break the news less abruptly. Scott is patient to the point of tirelessness. If the Indians

TOWN TALK.

y was treated to d diSer- itation on municipal eX- A lpenses Wednesday eve- ming which upset it's t.f plans to some extent and whether it should have upset the remainder will not be definitely determined until Feb 1 ruary of next year, when trans l fcrs can be made from one de- 1 partment to another. The council has ] already proposed to ainend the char ter by wiping out the clause which provides for the tablng of the re- port of the board of finance and tax alton for one week after it is filed with the council and then an effort was made to send it back again on 1 another matter after it had been be- fore the council for a week. The council has shown that the proposed
 amendment should be defeated and has also supplied the argument. MT. ! Chamberlain has always appeared be- /, fore the council at the meeting when the estimates are to be acted upon so as to answer any questions that may be asked and to give any information that may be desired. This time he found that several members of that body had already decided to do, some revising on their own account MT. Chamberlain in to use sporting term was in fine fettlc and talked with ease. The report of the board of
 which he is the president had never
 been laid out before for dissection and
 he was curious to know how it was
 going to be done without crippling
 some department. The method se-
 lected was somewhat similar to that
 employed by the enterprising farmer
 at Thanksgiving time when he re-
 moves the head from the prize turkey
 Just cut it off, that's all. The belief
 had become general that the action
 of the board of finance was final and
 what it said went, but this seems to
 be a bad time for customs as no
 attention is given such things, es-
 pecially when it concerns money mat
 ters and that is what is referred to
 when taxes are discussed. The re-
 publican members of the council have
 assumed responsibility for the in
 creased tax rate this year; they met
 and talked it over and even shaved
 off half a mill thereby saving the
 price of a pair of shoes as one mem
 Der said for the man who. pays taxes
 on $4,0o0 piece of property, pro-
 vided he is in the habit of wearing
 that kind of footwear. The council
 has succeeded in cutting down the rate half a mill better than the
 board of finance and taxation did and that is matter not to be sneezed at, the only question being whether it
 may not be necessary to seek more
 funds before the close of the year to
 r-. f
 the estimates by the council It is a good thing to sec the common coun-
 cil giving some attention to the mat
 ter of taxes for the reason that 1t spends the greater part of the money appropriated. It used to save at the spiEot and waste at the bunghole but if present plans are carried out it will now save at both ends. It is q good sign in a sense and 1t will be extremely interesting to note how it works out.

In pairing the estimates the council
 shaved off $3,0O0 from the appropria-
 tion for the New Britain Institute.
 A great many people and perhaps
 some of the members of the council
 do not fully realize what this means
 or understand the plight it leaves
 that worthy institution in. It is ques- ton that furnishes an interesting sub-
 ject for discussion. Presumably all
 understand that the Institute is
 free public library and that the books
 are loaned out free to all who care
 to read them. The number has be-
 come quite large and is yearly in-
 creasing. Recently childrens de-
 partment was esta bished and the
 attendance is almost too great to be
 conveniently managed, but the as-
 sistants are doing a great work there:
 parents must understand what this
 means to their little ones, the advan- tage they gain, the information inn
 parted and the great benefit it is to
 them in the way Of education. They would hardly want to have this work curtailed and yet the looping off of so much money must necessarily
 have some such result. During the past two years the board of finance and taxation has been allowing the Institute an appropriation of $12,0OO
 which with the $5OOO or so incom, constitutes the revenue of that insti-
 tuition from which it must pay all it's expenses, including the salaries of the librarian and assistants, the purcha SC oi books. magazines and periodicals for the use of those who desire to l read them and for the general upkecp of the property. Of late branch ii- brarles have been established in all the schools at the instance Of the 1 Parents and Teachers associations for l circulation in the immediate neigh borhood and in this way the Institute 1 is coming very near reaching about all the people in the city. The board l of finance and taxation cut the Insti- 1 tute appropriation S1,5OO and then l the common council came along and | whipped off $3,00O more so that it is not difficult to see that the activities
 of the Institute must be curtailed l this year and the reduction must bo l along those lines pertaining to cdu- 1 cation. There can be no reduction l in salaries because they are even , lower now than those paid in similar 1 institutions in other cities. The pa l irons O1 the institute, and they in- 1 clude very large number, can see l from reading this article, the condi- 1 hons that must obtain at the Inst- 1 ute during this year. There is no way of getting away from the fact
 that some of tho work must be sus- l pended and this means that children and older persons who patronize the l library must he deprived of some
 of the privileges they have hitherto 1 enjoyed either in the form of new
 books or magazines or other privileges 1 which they have had and they pro- l bablv will not like it. It is possible
 that in it's zeal to lower the tax rates inc council overlooked these facts
 The lower tax rate is desirable from an economic standpoint but it does not look so good when the other side
 of the question is viewed and there is
