YANKEES BEATEN
in FINAL GAME
WITHWHITESOX
Eddie Cicotte Once More Proves
He Has Number of New
Workers.

Chicago. Sept. 25.-Chicago saved
something out Of the wreck OF the
seasons series with the Yankees by
taking the last game here to-day by
score Of 3 TO /. This victory gave
the locals the long end of the conclud-
inc series, the only one Rowland's
men were able TO land. They lost out
on the year. ten games 10 twelve.
Whatever Chicago might-or rather
might not-have done without the
services Of Eddie Cicotte IS painful TO
speculate. Cicotte won seven OF the
ten for the White SoX. II was this
veteran, who has hung on mainly
through his ability TO stop the
Yankees, who took the first contest Of
the closing series almost as easily as
he won to-day.
The White Sox victory kept the
home team in the pennant race, even
though the clubs chances have
dwindled almost to the vanishing
point Chicago is two and one-hslf
games behind the Red Sox, the leaders
taking the farewell contest at Cleve-
land.
Chicago's dying gasp was next to
ruinous for the Yankees hope OF
place among the select four. Dono-
vans club was dropped TO q tie with
the idling Browns for this slight con-
ISOLATION. In their next series the
New Workers will tackle the pacemak-
ing Red Sox, a club that has made
the strong Western teams look like
sandlotters.
Chicago won to-day's game by
punching hits of Russell. Felseh's
home run over the left field fence in
the fourth inning would have been
enough. The locals, however, clinched
the contest by hammering Slim Love
after he had relieved Russell. One
Of Chicsgo's roofing clubs presented
Felsch with purse Of 800 for hitting

New York escaped a shutout in the
fifth or a pass to Baker, an infeld
out and Walters's single.

Ruth's single produced another in the

fielding feature.

Braves Boost Chances
by Beating Pittsburgh
Both Big remnants
Still in Doubt

All Boston has TO do to count De-
trOit out of the pcnnant race in the
American League is TO win two of
its remaining seven games. The
champions record is 81 won and so
lost, so two more wins would make
1t SO victories and o. defeats.
Chicago has slightly better
chance than Detroit. Including to-
days game, Comiskey's men have
won Sc and lost 81. Winning their
remaining four games (all of which
are with Cleveland), they would
stand 90 won and 81 lost. To beat
that Boston would have to win four
of its seven games.

FLORAHOME LOSES
AN H0NORED CITIZEN
By Death of Mr.. A. W. Tuck
er, Who Passed Away
on Sunday Last.

Mr.. A. w. Tucker, since 1902 one
of the very foremost progressive cltl-
zens of Florahome, died on Sunday
July 18th after long and distressing
illness. His funeral occurred from
his late residence, Pleasant View, at
2 o'clock Tuesday afternoon. The
interment was in Grandin cemetery.
Simple but impressive exercises
market the funeral service. His
friend and neighbor, Hon. W. Il. Rev
els. read the 18th chapter of 1st Cor
inthians, and followed with a few
brief remarks and the reading of u
general sketch of Mr.. fuckers long
and useful life. The speaker paid
a tribute to the deceased as citl-
en-. neighbor and friend, and spoke
Of him as a man of wide information
and culture, one who kept up almost
to the last on world events. Prayer
and singing followed. =,
At the grave the twenty-third
psalm was read and song closed the
obsequies. The pall-bearers were
Messrs. S. E. Tubbs, William Harrl-
son. G. L. Knight, Charles Tilden,
DR.. Sipprell and Mr.. Brandt.
The singing was rendered by Mrs.
G.. C. Hardy and Messrs. Dunmire,
Brandt and Bell. The relatives pres
ent with Mrs. Tucker were Miss An
ma Tucker, Mrs. M. c. Smith and Wal
ter Smith.
The late A. w. Tucker was born
at Cherryfeld, Maine, Nov. 26th,
1894. He remained in his native
state until he was 81 years of age,
since which time he has been cltl-
zen of three states, viz, Minnesota,
Illinois and Florida. He was always
Q public-spirited man and took deep
interest in the activities for better
mcnt in every community in which
he resided When the civil war
broke out he enlisted in TIE Third
Minnesota regiment. He also fought
in the Indian war in Minnesota.
He was married in 1864, his wife
being Miss Emily J. Norris, who
survives him.
He went from Minnesota to Chica
90 in 1872. where he lived an active
business life for 80 years, or until
coming to Florahome. Fla, in 1902,
where he had since resided.
He was a member Of the George Il.
Thomas Post, G. A. R. of Ch'".
and when he came to Florida he
brought his transfer to Grand Ar
my Post of this state. Mr.. Tucker
was a lifelong democrat and always
supported the democratic party in
state and nation,
He was raised in the Methodist
Episcopal church, but was later led
to espouse the doctrines of Advent
ism, in which faith he lived and died.
His life has been that Of an honorable
Christian gentleman. To the last he
had on unshaken faith in the divini-
tv of Jesus Christ and in his own
resurrection through Christ.
Mr.. Tucker is survived by his wife,
two sisters and several nieces and
nephews. For a year he has been
in feeble health, and for month his
condition was so serious as to REQUIRE
the constant watching by his bedside
of relatives and friends.

Punta Gorda Herald: Irregulari-
ties and illegal methods, as well as
clerical errors in the count, are
known to have occurred in at least a
hundred voting precincts of the state.
These may have been as much against
Mr.. Cats as against Mr.. Knott.
Nevertheless, all the Cats organs
and partisans are crying out that the
proceedings inaugurated by Mr.. Knott
are for the purpose of counting out"
Mr.. Cats and they intimate, if they
do not directly threaten that, if the
courts declare Mr.. Knott the legal
nominee, they the Cats adherents,
will not accept the result, but will
run Mr.. Cats in the November cleo
ton. This is a reflection upon the
integrity of the managers who may
be ordered by the courts to make a
recount and upon the courts them
selves. 1t is equivalent to saying
that neither the managers nor the
courts are honest.
