TENTH IS FATAL
TO PAS HOPEFULS
With Two Men Down Devore,
Davis and Metz Single and
Bring Winning Tally
Over Rubber.

Aftertwo were down in the tentl
Devore, Davis and Metz all singled
and drove in the tally that won the
first game of the Rourke- Joplin series
yesterday afternoon for the enemy
to /.
Cecil Thompson did the twirling foi
the champs and did it we'll up till the
eventful tenth. In that inning he
whitfield Lamb for a starter, and Cocf,
ran grounded out. And then came the
end. Devore and Davis singled to left
and Metz beat out all inheld hit, De-
wore scoring. The play was close at
the plate.
Hall pitched good ball during the
entire fray. In the ten innings only
thirty-six men faced him and only
seven of these were able to connect
safely. Morrie Schick brought in our
lone pearlie when he doubled to open
the fifth inning and scored on an error
by Dalton.
Tie Score in Ninth.
In the ninth Joplin came UP from
behind and tied the score. Davis few
out to Shag Thompson to open the
frame. Metz singled to left and Dali
ton hit hot one to Krug too warm
to handle. The ball rolled over toward
second and Phil-up Cooney, the crafty,
made an heroic attempt to cover the
bag and the ball at the same time. But
Phil was never built for such feat.
Possibly Harvey Grub or any other
more elongated chap could have
thrown Dalton dead. But Phil
couldn't quite stretch that far and
there were two on with only one
down. Monroe grounded out and Col
Inns, pinching for Lindamore singled,
scoring Mr.. Metz.
Hall popped out TO Williams and
the Rourklets sneaked in to win the
game once more. But the closest we
could get to it was a single by Smith.
Sniper Bradley Fails.
In the tenth, after the Miners were
one to the good, Shaw got life on
Devore's error, and Dave Williams
beat out bunt. Cooney's effort was
a fly to right and Bradley, who
pinched for c. Thompson followed
suit.
Joe Burg lined up at third base
again and accepted ten chances with
out a bobble. His hitting was weak,
in fact it wasn't hitting. The whole
line up was shaken up, Schick moving
up to fifth place in the batting list
and Cooney going down to second
last. Davis was the honor-batter for
the day with three singles to his credit
in four trips to the plate.
The fans seemed revived somewhat
by the return of the team to some
thing near form and the double bill
this afternoon will doubtless see a
nice crowd.

the nation when Washington not only
checked their advance. but turned
their jolliflcation in Trenton into q

Reuiuing Old Time
YuLe Customs

CPECIAL efforts are being made by
- women in many communities ia
spread a revival Of the old Gus.
toms regarding Christmas. Some years
ago a Boston woman with a touch of
antiquarian spirit managed to stimu-
late Boston to revive a pretty Yule-
tide custom by celebrating its coming
by singing carols in the streets and by
Illuminating the houses through the
placing of candles in the windows.
Other cities emulated Boston in this
matter. In Carlisle, Pa, a community
Christmas tree was lighted in the pub
lie square, and its glowing Joy was
continued all along the streets by light
ed candles placed in the windows,
many Of which showed in the middle
Of the rooms so lighted up. displayed
to the passersby in the night, private
Christmas trees, the glitter and beauty
Of which thus were shared with all.
An objection to this attempt at glad
1ess-at least SO far as concerns the
lse of candles-has been the risk Of
FIRE. But these days Of electricity or
even of gas seem to minimize the idea
Of danger, and there are different de-
vices that may be applied to do away
with all risk In the carrying out of
the friendly suggestion. 1t Is advised
therefore that 1.-THE gladness and
brightness of the home on Christmas
eve be not kept behind closed blinds"
and to that end 1t is suggested that the
light from every window, whatever its
nature. be permitted to shine into the
streets until midnight. The idea Of
light is associated with all that Is good
IN life. The glow of the cracking Yule
log betokened the hospitality ready to
greet the stranger at that time, but
there was more to it than that. Light
In days gone by was supposed to keep
off evil spirits.-Sallie Wistar in Phila.

In announcing this step Secretary
Baker said it was necessary on &C.
count of the unusually severe condi-
tions of service in this war.
Commanders for American troops at
the fighting front are to be selected
only after rigid investigation of their
physical and professional fitness for
their task. Early announcement of
the retirement or discharge of some of
the general officers is to be expected,
as medical boards already have re-
ported against men in both the regular
and national guard services.
The general officers of the national
guard were taken into the federal
service witch their state units without
examination as to their professional
qualifications. Some of them had SER
