DE. PAGES RESIGNATION


 The resignation of the United States Ambassador. owing to ill., heath, came as a surprise to the general public, who were unaware how much Dr. Page has had to stru gle against continual bodily affllc- ton at a time when the calls upon him were very great. We have aeYer had a more popular Ambas- asdo-. He carried out his great mission with a nobility and sheer ity which deeply stirred this coun- try on many occasions. There was & lofty idealism about his speech es which made very powerful ap- pesl just when the two great na- tious were drawing together in the fight for civilization and freedom London Daily Mail.

 During the luncheon one Of the wounded said to him across the table: ,.
 "Mr. Ambassador, there was just one tb'ng wrong with that seryice.'
 "What was that?"
 "We couldn't yell"
 "Then why don't you yell noW!
 The man climbed on to a chair and, waving his napkin, shouted Boys, the Ambassador says we may yell. Let's yell"
 "So," said MT. Page in telling the story, "they yelled for five minutes and yelled with them. We all fel. better for it. it."-London Daily Mail.

strides had taken the lead from Race King and opened up a gap of about one length Sysonby leading. Race
 King length behind and Be,dame two lengths back of Race Kine-that's the way they ran to the half-nile mark. Shaw wasn't worried about Race King. He figured the son of Tenny was a Guitter. But Beldame, noted for her stretch running, was a little too close for combort. So Shaw flicked Syson- ny with his whip and sent the Keene racer forward into greater stride, and he pulled away still farther from Bel dame-but not from Race King. ,'he little cripple, running smoothly and easily, never permitted Sysonby to widen the gap that separated them and raced him stride for stride to tho stretch turn.
 Shaw. who had expected Race King to crack suddenly became awake to the fact that Race King was the horse he hal to beat. And so he attempted to add to Sysonbys lead. lie began whipping Sysonby responded with in creased speed-but only for 6 little while. And then lack of condition be- gan to tell Sysonby was forced to ease up little.
 And then came Race King. Smith was whipping Race King nosx, and on and on cane the little horse. gaining on his world-famous rival with every jump. Inch by inch he cut down the lead of his mighty rival. Now he was at his Hanks: now his saddle bags; now his throat lateh--about 100 yards from ho'ne the little, despised son of TennY caught the world renowned Sysonby, while the crowd seemed to go insane with excitement.
 Racing as a team in perfect align ment, Sysonby and Face King thun- dered through the last 100 yards of that race. each striving as horses never strove before to gain the advantage: with their jocleies whipping so fast and so furiously that their arms became blurred motion; with the tremendous crowd rocking the heavens with their commingled cheers. their groans, their sh rieks. their plaudits.
 On and on came Sysonby and Race King. nose to nose, stride for stride, and with their bodies SC close together that they seemed part of each other. And so they raced across the line in one of the most stirring finishes the horse world ever has known, and be- fore a crowd that knew not the result until the judges ordered the hanging out of the seldom seen race track num- bers:

CHICAGO PAID b|G SUM ID SEE SERIES Over 100000 "Iron Men" Turned Loose by East
 Side Fans

Chicago, September 7.-Chicago paid s1O0, ,463 to see the first three games of the worlds series, according to figures com piled tonight The total attendance for the three games was 66,56s, today's crowd of 27054 being the largest.
 Warm weather and bright sun, together with half holiday in practically all lines of business swelled the crowd to nearly capacity proportions. The fact that the contest was the last ,major league game to be played in Chicago until the war is won also had an appeal.
 Ticket scalpers reaped a harvest today for the first time during the series. The reserved seats were snapped up before noon and when the crowd stormed the park half an hour before the start of the game, the scalpers got as high as 5 for ticket costing $1.50
