Pierce played squareIy into the
hands of the Pittsburgh people. 1t
took some time to straighten out the
tangle after he committed his mex
cusable burst of temper, and the Cubs
were barely able to get in four and a
half innings before rain put an end to
the mess. If Pierce had been allowed
his way he would have put on box
ing match with Cooper and ten or
fifteen minutes would have been
tossed off.
If Pierce had displayed big league
intelligence he would have accepted
his pass gracefully and then allowed
himself to be run to death on the
bases.
The trouble goes further than that.
Before he pulled his bone stuff Pierce
had been pitching at high speed, baf-
fling the Pirate batters completely. 1t
seemed that he could take his place
with label, Standridge and Vaughn
and round out the quartet of steady
pitchers that Bresnahan needs badly
if the Cubs are to make proper
SuOWIuS.
Now that looks like a busted
dream. Pierce is undoubtedly in for
suspension. His at-throwing stunt
was too fragrant to go unnoticed in
high quarters, and he may be taken
away just at time when he was
about to do little something to earn
his salary. If that happens, probably
Manager Bresnahan will have a little
reprimand of his own. for the left
handler, for Roger can't afford to lose
pitcher.
Saier's homer put him on a par
with Hinchman of Pittsburgh, who
also knocked a fly against the score
board in right field.
Rain today should be beneficial for
the Cubs, who have series with Gin
cinnati to face. Four games remain

day to the worth of his substitutes.
We have harped on that secondary
material often, but it is worth talking
about. Joe can lose a regular from
most any position and have fellow
on the sidelines ready to step in the
gap and go almost as fast as the first
choice. =
Buffalo was licked for the fourth
straight time because of this second
airy strength. With Jimmy Smith out
of the game at short, Harry Fritz is
playing third and Zeider short. Yes
terday Fritz busted two home runs,
accountable for four runs, exactly
the margin of victory for the Whales.
The same thing holds good for the
outfeld, and it is a hard matter to
pick the better man between Fischer
and Wilson behind the bat. Each is a
hard hitter, and, if any thing, Fischer
has been doing even better work than
Wilson in the last few days. Wilson
is no better defensiVely than his
mate.
The most sensational player for the

Right Fielder Hanford, who was re-
leased by Buffalo. Hanford is very
fast on the bases, and his batting is
better than that of any man on the,
team. He has put power in the gar.
dens, already powerful with Flack,,
Zwilling and Wickland on the job.
Wick batted at 800 clip last season,
yet can't hold regular berth now.
That speaks well for the ability Of
Hanford.
Should Manager Rowland bring his
men home from the trip that starts
today with better than an even break
for the jaunt, chances are excellent
for a drive to the top of the ladder
during the next South Side stand.

WORKINGMEN SAY
 THEY'LL SUPPORT JOHN M. D0NNELLY

John M. Donne1y. Democratic can didate for collector, has already re- ceived assurances from members of the local labor unions that he will receive their support in the coming election Workingmen who are not affiliated with unions have alsof fdeclar-. ed they will cast their ballots for DonnelIy. They realize that hesfs at the present time and always has been, the champion of the workingman.
 It is easy enough for any5candidate to bob up around campaign time and make speeches in which he tells how he loves the workingman. I'm your friend, boys,'' these candidates say when they make a tour of the factor ies seeking votes, '.I always did what I could for you" Most of these candidates never give the working man thought except when it comes time to get out the vote. When cleo ton is over they forget the labor ele- ment for another year or two.
 But John M. Donne11y does not be- long in this class of fair weather friends He wants to be judged by deeds and not words. When he was a member of the General Assembly, representing the 22nd district, his voice was always raised in the Senate in behalf of labor. He introduced many bills which were intended to he voted for labor bills put in by oth- CT legislators
 It was Donnelly who, in 1907, in troduced in the Assembly a bill pro viding that women in this state should not be compelled to work more than 55 hours a week. There was violent opposition to this measure from capi- talists whose profits would be Reduced by the passage of the bill.A The lob by. which f1ouriShed in those dayS worked openly against the bill. But Donnelly's eloquence caused the meas ure to become a law despite the lob by.

too large for the capacity of the va

are not exactly congregations Of
WoTshippeTs, but rather Of sleepers.
The prospects Of getting a shelter for
the night, a cup of warm coffee and
a few slices of bread brings the
crowd. No other advertisement is
needed. The news travels like wild
fire and the superintendent have a
serious problem in trying to find ac-
cOmmodatiOns for the mobs Of men
who seek a shelter.
Every evening on State, Madison
and Wells streets one can look
through the glass doors of brilliantly
lighted missions and behold the spec
tacle of hundreds of raggedIOoking
auditors patiently waiting for the
services to open up. Pretty soon the
evangelists and singers will appear on
the platform and the organ will strike
the familiar notes of a well-known
hymn. The audience raises and helps
to swell the volume Of singing. This
over for the time being, the meeting
opens up for personal experiences.
One after the other converts give
their testimonies. Choruses alternate
with the testimonies. At times loud
amens and haIelujahs are heard.
After a while an evangelist, wear

sharp contrast to the altered gar
ments worn by a large majority of
the auditors, begins in solemn voice
to read from the Word the story of
the "Prodigal Son." then unfolds a
long address against sin. He is
trained speaker and as he proceeds
his voice becomes at times harsh,

tons. He is an expert in the art of

continual repetition has become mo-

the speaker and appear to be bored.
Their coUntenances plainly show that
quick ending Of the ordeal will be
welcome.
The atmosphere is close and the
ventilation none too good. Now and
then some lean over and peacefully
fall asleep. The attendant whose
business is to keep order is bUsily en-
gagged in going from rows to rows of
seats to shake the sleepers and re-
mind them that sleeping is only per-
mitted at the close of the service.
The evangelist is finishing his ser
mon and is making a strong appeal
for converts. The men wake up
from their torpor, for they know that .
pretty soon hot, coffee and bread is
to be served. A closing hymn and
the service is over. The evangelist
and his assistants have left the hall.
The Army of Despair remains togeth-

during the course of the day are
spread upon the floor. Shoes are
pulled off and are used as a substi-
