eRookLyNs FOURTH REMNANT
Won Flag First Year in National
League, 1890

Brooklyn's victory in winning the
National League pennant this season
gives to that city, or now that section
of Greater New York its fourth nag
since it entered the National League
and its first in sixteen years. That
Manager Wilbert Robinson is entitled
to all the credit that COTS to the lead
er Of a winning team goes without
saying, because the Dodges have made
steady progress during the three years
he has been manager. Brooklyn be-
came a member Of the National Lea
que in 1890, and under the manage
ment of William McGunnigle won the
pennant.
The team then went to the bad and
did not figure prominently in the pen
nant race until 1899. when Ned Han
Ion, who had previously won three
pennants for Baltimore, became man
ager and won the flag, repeating in
1900. That two-time winning combi-
nation had such famous players as
Joe McGinnity. Bill Kennedy, Jim
Hughes and Frank Kitson as pitchers;
Charlie Farrell and Jim Mcclure as
catchers; Dan McGann, Hugh Jen-
nings, John Anderson, Tom Daily Bill
Dahlen, Gene De Montrevilie and
Lave Cross as infielders and joe Kel-
ley, Willie Keller Fielder Jones and
Jimmy Sheckard as outfelders. In
1901 the club finished third and in
1902 it was second. After that the
Dodgers became second-division
club and remained such until last sea-
son. In 1914, the first year under
Manager Robinson, the Dodgers finish
ed fifth, which was the highest mark
the club attained since 1907
Last season the Dodgers finished
third and now Manager Robinson has
come through and landed his team
at the top of the heap. According to
a statement made recently by Presi-
dent Ebbets of the Brooklyn club,
Manager Robinson did not become a
member of the club by direct pur-
chase from the Giants, but was Sc
cured through the waiver route.
President Ebbets said it was at a
time when Brooklyn was looking for
successor to Bill Dahlen that a no
tive was received that the Giants had
asked for waivers on Robinson.
Up to that time Robinson had not
been considered as a possibility, be-
cause it was not thought the New
York club would part with him. Rob
inson had been Manager McCraw's
chief lieutenant for several years and
was given most of the credit for the
development CT the Giants pitchers.
When the notice asking Tor waivers
on Robinson was received, President
Ebbets says he Immediately fled an
answer refusing TO waive on the New
York coach 4Ae thought occurred
to him IT, Robinson should make
good manager for Brooklyn because
o. his experience as q player with
the Baltimore Orioles, his knowledge
of the game and the success he had
attained as assistant to Manager Nc
Graw of the Giants.
President Ebbets declares that
he has never believed in the brow
beating type OF manager. which was
another reason Wilbert Robinson ap-
pealed to him Now that Manager Rob
ms has succeeded in giving L-, <.
Ign a winner President Ebbets can
say no more than that he is entirely
satisfied with what his manager has
done-Bat Wright in Troy Times.

"Where Are My Children?" the dar
ing photo play which viii be shown
at opera house for three days begin.
ming Monday, Oct 10th has made the
biggest kind OF hit in New York
Chicago and Boston, and in fact in
every city where it has been seen, it
has created positive sensation.
Night after night and day after day
finds the lobby of the theatre crowd
ed, and the sidewalk congested by per
sons DESTROYS Of seeing this great
film And the crowd that is formed
after each first performance. as the
spectators are leaving by one set of
doors while others are entering by a
different set, is most impressive.
There is no doubt of the success of
"Where Are My Children" in other
ways than measured simply by atten-
dance. 1t has caused much thought
and discussion of subjects hitherto
tabooed, except in private, and accord
ing to many interested in the subject
of birth control much good is bound to
come OF free and open discussion. The
fact that a number of cases have Of
late been prominent in the papers and
courts. which have brought up afresh
the evils Of malpractices. has militat-
ed in favor Of the picture which shows
frankly the results of such tampering
with nature, both physically and NOR
ally.
The excellent acting. too, has done
much TO make the picture a success.
The fame of Tyrone Power needs no
trumpeting, and this sterling actor
has entered heart and soul into the
character OF the district attorney. so
fond of children but with none Of his
own, owing to his wife's actions.

who have emigrated to this land of

labor and their loyalty in making it

DO you realize that more than 4,000,-
600 persons have come from Ireland
to the United States since 1845? The
statistics of the immigration bureau
show this. / am sure that many of
the government officials will tell you
that no better class of immigrants

have proved good citizens and very val

land. just over the way. The channel
connects Stephens passage with the
Lynn canal, at the northern end of
which Skagway is located. 1t is very
deep and the harbor is so good that all
of the ships that pass through Alaskan
waters, excepting those that ply be-
tween Seattle and Nome, call at Ju-
neau. During the summer there are
boats north or south every day, and
tens of thousands of tourists pass
through at that time.
Juneau is right on the water. with
wooden piers extending out into the
Gastineau channel. 1t lies in nest in
the mountains. which rise almost per-
pendicularly behind it to a height of
perhaps 1000 feet. l have seen cliffs of
this height in other parts of the world.
They were mostly straight walls of
gray, red and black rock, as bleak and
bare as the Desert of Sahara. The walls
of Juneau are covered with a vegeta-
tion as green as the valley of the Nile.
They are so steep that 1T would seem
as though the trees could not find
roofing places. But they cling to the
precipitous cliffs and are so imbedded
in moss that they give the place
background of verdure.
The city is cut out of the rocks or,
rather it is propped up by them. The
most of the houses and streets stand

and four handling hardware. There are
four jewelry stores, five drug stores,
two shoe stores and three devoted to
furniture. There are three department
stores, each of which would be big for
a city in the states of three times the
size. There is a music store, several
cigar stores, three bakeries, three mil
linery stores and a number of photo
graphic and curio stores. The town
has up-to-date barber shops, cigar fac
tories and steam laundries. 1t has a
brewery and bottling works. 1t has two
daily newspapers and three job print
ing establishments. 1t has three banks
with resources of about $2,000.000 and
annual bank clearings of something
like $26,000,000. The bank deposits run
into the millions, the payroll of two of
the Juneau mines averaging more than
$150,000 each month.
The best residences of Juneau are
on Chicken Ridge. This is the Mob Hill
or aristocratic part of the city. I un-
derstand that the residents are not in
love with the name, and that they talk
of changing it to Bellevue or Bon Air, of
some other less plebeian title. The
Ridge is at the upper end of the city.
well back from the water. The houses
are pretty two-story structures, built
on patches cut out of the rocks. The
richest man in the town has lawn
about as big as three bed quilts. and
tourists are taken to see this as one
of the sights of the city. Other fine
homes are still higher up and some of
them cling to the green wall of the
mountains. l made a call last evening
upon the editor of the Alaska Dis
patch. To get to his home / had to
climb a pathway several times as high
as that which leads to the Tea House
of One Hundred Steps above Yokohama,
Japan.
These houses of Juneau have no double
windows or other special arrangements
for winter protection. Nevertheless,
the people tell me they have no trouble
in keeping warm. The thermometer
seldom falls below zero. and the heavier
water pipes are laid on the top of the
ground The chief complaint is the long
nights and short days. In midwinter the
electric lights have to be turned on two
or three hours after noon, and it is not
daylight until 9 o'clock in the morning.
In midsummer there are but few hours
of real darkness. One can go anywhere
until 10 pm. without lights, and the
dawn comes between 2 and 3 o'clock in
the morning.
The winter climate of Juneau satisfies
even the neg1 oes. who are supposed to be
the children of the tropical sun. l had
my shoes shined this morning by a COL
ored bootblack, whose stand Is on the
