Cubs Win Second Game of Series

| James Wood, who explained the Chi tcago White Stockings of 1870, relates the story of the first world series in
 September of that year between his club and the unbeaten Cincinnati Red Stockings.
 Because our club had challenged it
 was up to us to play the first game of the series in Cincinnati," declares Wood. "The Red Stockings never had ! lost game on their home grounds and the feat of beating them was consid- cred impossible. In the first place the Red Stockings had a marvellous ball club, and secondly they usually se- 1ected their own umpire. And when need
 arose, the fans assisted them by menac- f ing the opposition players.
 T realized all this when I took my boys to Cincinnati for the opening
 game, and explained to each what he might expect from the crowd. But they were fearless lot and they promised me that no showing of hostility by the fans would affect their playing. "A crowd of 10000 damned it's way into the park. Every seat was taken and ropes were stretched in the out i field Just before game time I was ap- preached by one of the Cincinnati of 1 ficials about the selection of an umpire.
 He named one of his own choosing. re- piled:
 1 "'We don't want any of your hand from the stands but he must not be
 from either Cincinnati or Chicago "An argument followed-but had my ] way. Announcement was made to the
 stands that we wanted spectator to umpire the game. A fellow named Mill tligan, a Philadelphia salesman, stepped
 out and volunteered. He convinced us
 he understood all angles of the game.
 And he got the job.
 "Cincinnai gamblers then circulated
 through the stands waving big rolls of ] bills and offering odds of 20 to l
 against us. A thousand loyal rooters
 from Chicago who had accompanied us
 covered the money. So great was the Chicago backing that at game time the
 odds had been forced down to to l.
 My boys jumped into the lead in the ledTly 1IlnltlSS-dIQ We lcNtI Npl " CT u l lost it. During the first part of the game
 the crowd was very orderly, figuring
 that the Red Stockings would rally
 later and forge to the front But as in-
 ming after inning was played and Chi | cago continued ahead. the crowd be- came worried and then frantic and then rowdyish.
 Threats were hurled at our players and fans hindered our players in every | way possible. Insults were hurled at Milligan. The Red Stockings joined in | the bulldozing. But the treatme ent ac- | corded Milligan unmoved him. He | played no favorites. Even with the | threat of death lowering over him, Mill 1 ligan would not give Cincinnati any more than it deserved.
 we won that game with the score | of to 8, and in so doing startled the | baseball world because that defeat was

 All of Chicagos runs were made in the second when Bush, on the bridge for the Red Sox, seemed to see periscopes bob ping up all around his craft. Bostons s one run came in a desperate and spectac- ular rally in the ninth. Strunk, the first man up for the visitors, selecting big Bertha from among the bats, slammed the ball against the rightfield fence. Whiteman, who drove in yesterdays S winning run for Boston, was cheered as he came up. His wallop was the might jest of the series thus far, the ball smash ing into the word Buy in the war sav ings sign in the center Strunk trotted hcme and the Chicagoans who had counted the game won, halted on their way to the exits. Tyler, however, steadied and threw out McInnis at first. Scott was allowed to walk, and the gigan- tic Dubuc came to bat for Thomas. He fouled off half a dozen, ones, but in the end struck out on a wide one. Schang, who was substitute for Agnew in the eighth inning, popped to Hollocher and the game was over.

You never knew of Rheumatism, that most painful source of suffering being cured by liniments, lotions or other ex- ternaI applications, And you will never see anything but temporary relief af- forded by such makeshifts
 But why be satisfied with temporary relief from the bangs of pain which are sure to return with increased severity, when there is permanent relief within your reach?

Chicago, September 6.-Mays probably will be selected to face the Cubs in the third game of the worlds series tomor- row, according to Manager Barrow of the Red Sox tonight.
 'Today's game was a tough one to lose, especially as we nearly broke it up in the ninth inning Barrow said. The Cubs had the better of the breaks, 1 think, and piled up lead in the second inning too great for us to overcome 1 do not mean to take credit away from Tyler, who pitched great ball and de-

gently toward third and Thomas ambled gracefully forward and let it bound past him. This placed Pick on first and Merkle on second, while kind-heated of ficial scorers awarded Pick a hit Deal flied out. Killifer was next up. Earlier in the game Tyler devoted much atten- ton to getting something out of the catcher's eye, and the operation was a complete success. Killifer got both his good eye and the convalescent one on the ball and delivered a two-bagger, the first extra wallop of the series. Merkle scored and Pick reached third. Tyler rose to the occasion with a single, SCOT ing Pick and Killifer, but was himself caught trying to reach second on the play
 The Cubs threatened again in the sixth, but the cloud did not develop rain. Hollccher hit down the first base line and his speed stretched it into triple. He never got further, however for Bos- ton rallied heroically. The infield drew in and Mann was out. Scott to Mclnnis, Hollocher hardly having a chance to move off the third sack. He tried to register on Paskerts grounder, but Scott's sharp throw was ahead of him. Paskert was safe and Merkle singled, but miss fire double steal failed ignobly and the clouds cleared from the Boston sky.
 SOA IHREAl FEN
 Boston started the second inning with the apiono and confidence of champions, and for d time seemed to have an excel lent chance to score, but snappy relay from Pick cut off the impending tally at the plate Whiteman, whose bat was ef- fcacious yesterday, was awarded pass. Killifer and Tyler collided over Me Innis' blint and both were safe. It was on this occasion that Surgeon Tyler bc- gan work on Killifer's eye Both were advanced an additional base by Scott S sacrifice and Thomas came to bat. Ills best was q drive to Pick, who threw Whitenlan out at the plate. Agnew closed the rally with a high foul to Flack
 The fighting blood of both teams was up from the beginning. Umpires were growled and snapped at: the crowd grew partisan and way down in the depth or the Boston bombproof, Knabe, Chicago coach, and Wagner coach for Boston, got into a fight The crowd learned of it when players and umpires made dive into the ougout and separated them
 FLACK MAKES GREAT THROW
 Flacks magnificent throw from right saved the day for Chicago in the eighth. Schang, batting for Agnew. singled too hot for Iollocher. Hooper singled into far right. Schang passed second at a 10-second gait, but F'lack, throwing oii line with deadly accuracy, caught him away from the base. It was a disheart- cning cut for Boston.
 Despite warm and pleasant weather, toe attendance was only a few more than yesterday, and the 20,040 persons present left many vacant seats. In the whole as- semblaga there were probably less than 100 women In normal times they come in crowds to notable contests on the dia' mond.

 ''The task of the Cubs is now easier, said Manager Mitchell of the Chicago club We are on even terms with Bos- ton. The Cubs certainly recovered their batting eye and they are confident of retaining it. Tyler pitched a wonderful game and never was in danger except in the ninth, when he grooved them over for Strunk and Whiteman.

No Short Cut to
 Skill With the Gun

The art of shooting in the field is not to be mastered in day or year. It is the result of ripened experience, and seasons of constant practice and close observation are required to insure it's possession.
 There is no shortcut to skill with the gun, though it is true that some mea become fine shots in comparatively short time. So do certain men gallop through their novice stage of whatever they undertake to master. be it art, billiards or anything which demands the accurate and combined working ot brain, eye and muscle.
 The man who makes phenomenally rapid progress in markmanship is sim ply man blessed by nature with quail ties which peculiarly fit him for the task He probably would make as Srapid progress at fencing. billiards, sparring or other games to winch he might chos' choose to devote himself
