tingent for the worlds series. the
prices Of tickets for the three Chicago
games were sent skyward by scalpers
purchasers who failed to get seats
through the regular channels.
Although the reserved scat tickets
and the box seats will not be distrib-
uted to the fortunate purchasers until
Thursday, scalpcrs are accepting de-
posits on orders and are asking $50
for S. box seat for three games and
$35 for stand seats, which sold for
$3.50 each. What system the specu-
latoIs are using in their attempt to
obtain tickets Is puzzling officials Of
the Chicago Americans, as tickets are
registered and numbered and the ap-
plicants viii be Obliged to call in per-
son for their allotment. A Chicagoan
who baked at the price demanded by
scalpers inserted an advertisement in
a newspaper today Offering $50 for two
grandstand seats for the first two
games.

WE'D ONLY THREE DAYS
Topeka Man and His Wife Then Sep
arated. ID

Love flickered out in a cottage built
for two by Edward McGrath at the
end of three days of married life, ac-
cording to allegations made in a petit
tIon for separate maintenance filed by
Esther McGrath in the office of Mrs.
Mary Chaplin, clerk of the district
court. At the end of the third day
NIcGrath informed her in so many
words that Cupid had made only a
flesh wound which had entirely
healed, it is alleged
McGrath presented her wieh a $40
bill at the time and the bride of three
days ventured forth dependent on her
own resources again. according to al
legations made by w. E. Atchison ner
attorney. That was eight months ago.
Later, according to Atchison, they
lived together for a short time and
again Cupid's aim proved faulty, At
Gibson alleges.
McGrath is a steamfitter They
were married in Kansas City and
came to Topeka after the wedding
Atchison states that the girl is humil-
lated over teh affair and, as yet, has
not told her mother, who lives in Chi
cago, of the trouble. She doesn't want
q divorce but demands separate main
tenance. McGrath lives at 4S9 Fast
Eighth avenue. Mrs. McGrath is en-
ployed as a waitress on the first floor
of the Cremerie restaurant.

Who's Who in Big Diamond Classic
of the Year.

Joseph D. Benz-This big right
handler has been with the White SoX
ever since 1911, when he was sold TO
the Comiskey crew by Des Moines OF
the Western league His big league
record is brilliant. but his effective
ness this year hasn't been so pro
nounced as in former seasons. He
has no-hit game to his credit. Benz
started with the Clarksburg club in
the West Pennsylvania league in 1908.
and went to the Decatur Three-I
league in the same year. Des MONIES,
I'm the Western league, had him the
following year and sent him to Green
Bay in the Observation-Disclosures league.
returning in 1911, the year he was
sold to Chicago.
James Scott-Oskaloosa in the
Iowa State league, started Death Nal-'
ley Jim to fame in 1907. Wichita, in
the Western association, had him in
1908, and when Frank Isbell was re-
leased by the White SoX to manage
the Wichita club, Scott went to Chi
caEo as part of the deal He has Seen
there ever since. He is now in an
officers training camp and probably
will not get into the worlds series.

SILVER THRU MAIL!
Topckan Receives Dollar That Came
All the Way From Georgia.

Lots of valuable things are sent
thru the mails nowadays. Since the
Inauguration of the parcel post en-
ployes of the Charles Wolff Packing
company haven't considered it any
thing out of the ordinary to send
pieces of bacon and other such price
less commodities in the care of Uncle
Sam. All records were broken today,
however, when w. H. Mckenzie, an
employee in the shipping room of the
Wolff plant. was handed a silver dol
lar by the postman.
The dollar had been sent thru the
mail from Conner, Ga. A stamp was
on one side and a slip of paper bear
ing McKenzia's address was on the
other. Mckenzie said the dollar was
naailed by his father.
AS the coin passed thru the postof-
flee employees suspended work long
enough to inspect it and the same
thing happened at the Wolff plant
Safe delivery of the money is regard
ed at~the federal building as signifi-
cant Of the honesty of Uncle Sans
mail employees. 1t was not registered
and it would have been easy for an
employe to have placed the coin in his
pocket and none would have been the
wiser.
