ELEY WINS
BOTH GAMES

The Shelter team of the City
league went into a tie with Fort
Steilacoom for first place in the
race yesterday by defeating the
South Tacoma Crescents in both
games of a double-header. The
scores were 13 to 0 and Z to 5.
Smelter and Steilacoom will
meet next Sunday for the cham
pionship game, and since each
team has won / matches and lost
only two during the season, keen
interest attaches to the game.
Eley pitched the first game and
shut out the South Tacomans
easily. Haugland was driven from
the mound in the second inning
of the second game and Eley went
In again. The game went IA in
nings, Eley finally winning.

Winsome Mary
Is a Winner

Charming Mary Miles Minter,
whose winsome smile and whole
some personality have endeared
her to many thousands of motion
picture patrons, scores a personal
triumph in Youths Endearing
Charm" the six-act Mutual Mas
terpicture that opened at the Hip
podrome theater yesterday as the
feature of an excellent new pro-
gram.
There is something about Mary
Miles Minter that creeps close to
the hearts of her audiences and
in her newest feature, there is not
time that she does not hold the
complete sympathy of those who
see her. In this picture Miss Min
ter is seen as a forlorn, abused
little orphan hired out to
cruel farmer and his wife.

RACE COMES
NEAR CLOSE

NEW YORK, Sept. 11.-With
the end of the race in the Ma
tional league only three weeks
away, Brooklyn and Philadelphia
start this week against what prob
ably will prove their strongest OPP
position.
Brooklyn today is in first place
by the margin of a game and a
half over Philadelphia. The
Braves, minus the services of
John Evers and with Meanwhile
crippled, have slipped into third
place.
The schedule for today calls for
another conflict between the
Braves and Dodgers at Boston and
for another Philadelphia-New
York contest at New York.

than a third of the territory
taken from Bulgarians by the
Rumanians at the close of the
second Balkan war, has been re-

ANOTHER VOLLEY

Accusing Congressman Albert
Johnson of playing traitor to Ia

ton, Mayor A. V. Fawcett, oppon-
ent of Johnson's at Tuesdays pri-

There will probably be all

stolen from Tacoma to join the

But the real reason is that Seat

IRIS SPEAKER, CLEVELAND

iris SPEAKER. CLEVELAND
INDIANS:
There has been a disposition
on the part of some people to
criticize the ball player for get
ting all the salary he could shake
down from his employer. In a few
cases ball player may have done
this. If SO, his conduct was but a
duplicate of what is commonly
done in other lines of business.
"A clerk in a drygoods store
doesn't see anything improper in
for raise II he believes
he has earned it, and IL his en-
ployers for some reason are I'M
able to pay him he believes he is
justified in going elsewhere.
AS matter of fact the ball
player seldom drives hard bar
gain even when he has the OPP
portunity."
