PHILADELPHIA, Aug. THE
Tigers arrived In Quakertown this
morning for . nve-game series with
Connie Mack's club. Il was . rather
forlorn gang OF athletes that left the
train and hit the trail for the hotel
and eats. The result Of yesterdays
contest at Boston left no Joy In the

probably on Saturday, and the
Tigers have not won both ends OF a
double bill this season. 30 only
some sensational battling by Cleve'
land can help the Tigers much this
week.
The final game at Boston was a
heart-breaker. The Tigers leaped
on Shore In the frst inning for three
hits and a run. Shore. Carrigan's
mound choice. Ia a hard nut for the
Tigers TO crack, and this trio OF hits
looked very promising. Bush, Cobb
and Crawford were the persons in
volved In this initial run. Later 1t
developed that this was to be very
lonesome tally.
Speaker robbed Detroit Of another
run in the third. when he made a
great running catch Of Cobb's line
drive. after Bush had got another
single. In the fifth, Bush again sin
gled, and so did Cobb, but there was
no scoring.
In the ninth, Burns doubled to left
center. Kavanagh batted for Young
and walked. Moriarty and Mckee
were the other pinch hitters called
upon. and they did nothing.
Meanwhile Coveleskie held Boston
to four hits. None came until the
fifth, although run had been scor-
ed in the second round. That was
when Gamer was hit by a pitched
ball, Lewis sacrificed. and Bush
threw wild on Barry's grounder. In
the seventh, Lewis got Boston's Sec
ond hit. a single to left. After Gard
ner had rolled out, Barry doubled to
center. scoring Lewis, and winning
the game and again proving the ad-
visibility of his purchase by Boston
from Philadelphia. II any one thing
will have more to do than another
with the possible winning OF the pen
nant by Boston, 1t will be the mid
season acquisition OF Barry.

THE FAR MER'S AUTO

Chicago oJurnal: Several hundred
thousand American farmers have in
vested or will invest in automobiles
this fall And every such investment
will add To the attractiveneSs of rural
life. and do it's share in keeping boys
and girls on the farms.
With an automobile. the neighbor-
hood is quadrupled in size. Visits to
town or to friends are made easy.
General gatherings at focal points are
stimulated and made more frequent.
There is Il better exchange of ideas,
easier cooperation, pleasanter life.
There is likewise most enormous in
crease of interest in good roads.
Every farmer who buys an auto be-
comes forthwith a champion of better
highways. One experience of getting
stalled in the mud when out for Il

TRACTOR ENGINES ON FARM

engine promises TO become an essen

1t win have its advantages over the
horse and mule and will be an ex-
pense only when it is in use. 1t has
already been demonstrated that the
tractor can be used for many pur-
poses. and will obviatc the necessity
of a farmer keeping large stable of
horses and mules. incidentally, If the
tractor should become in general use
farmers will doubtless give more at
tention to stock raising as n means of
using up the annual crops of hay,
corn and other feed.

Nineteen Persons Injured When a

Salida.-Nineteen persons, includ-

ly injured when Train No. 4, east
bound, of the Denver & Rio Grande
railroad left the rails near Browns
Canon station at 4;4O a. m. Saturday
and four of the ars toppled over on
their sides. Only for the fact that
the cars were OF all steel construc-
ton vas a serious loss Of life
averted.
The train was running a few min
utes late when the accident occurred
at a point about $50 feet from the
Arkansas river, which here winds
around in a succession of curves.
Word was sent to this city at once,
and preparations were made TO dis
patch relief and wrecking crews to
the scene. Within four hours the
track was cleared and the injured per
sons were brought here and sent on
to Denver,
The accident was caused by a
broken rail.
