While the Richie Leonard bout next
Monday night is not for the champions
ship of anything even of New

causing quite as much discussion as
many a championship battle. The
Leonard camp is quietly confident that
the lightweight champion will stop the
Californian within the eight rounds
which are permitted at the small end
of the Hudson Tubes.

not reveal anything to Justify this opti

Ten Games in Row
For the Yankees IN
bod scrs Lose Again

The Yankees accomplished their tenth
straight victory in exhibition games at
fbbets Field yesterday afternoon when
they defeated the Brooklyn Dodgers
for the seventh time in row, the
score being to 2. 1t is indeed pity
that Flatbush is not in the American
League.
Allen Russell. the spit ball artist,
was on the mound during the entire
game for the Yanks, while Uncle Rob
bic divided the box duties between
Lieutenant Cadorc, who won the first
big league game OF the season at the
Hub last Saturday, and All Mamaux, the
former Pirate. Russels splitter SEEM
ingly was wcll-salivacd for he re-
stricted the Ebbets clan to six scattered
safeties and nary one was for an extra
base. The two Brooklyn twirers on
the contrary found their pathway less
smooth. Eight hits were produced bv
the Hugmen and usually they came
whcn there was chance of profit.
The Yankees began to do damage
which Sam Wick opened with triple
to the scoreboard. After O'Mara hal
dropped Peck's foul Roger drew pass
Pipp was tossed out by Magee but Wick
scampered across the plate on the play.
The second Yankee run came in the
fifth. Muddy Rue and Russell singled
in quick succession and after Wick had
fouled to Kruger Muddy with a sur
prsing dash of speed pilfered third.
Peck walked filling the bases. Pipp
forced Roger at second, Ruel scoring.
The Dodgers gathered their initial
tally in their half of the same inning
on passes to Johnston and Magee, an
inticld out and Zach Wheat's single to
centre. The Flatbushcrs tied the score
in the next inning on a single by Krue-
ger who took second on a passed ball,
and counted Johnston's safe hit to
right.
The Yanks sewed up the controversy
in the eighth when they added two
runs to their total Peck singled and
advanced to third on Malone's bad
throw of Pipp's sacrifice. Johnston fol-
lowed up the miscue with another wild
toss on which Peck counted. Baker
walked and Pratt beat out bunt
filling the bases. A sacrifice fly by
Duffy Lewis Tailed Pipp. The Colonels'
boys made an entirely unnecessary run
in the ninth through passes to Russell
and Peck and single by Wally Pipp.

this year when Coombs took charge
last winter. but Jack seems to have
done wonders with the material at
hand, as the games against the Ath..
letcs for the city championship OF
Philadelphia proved.
It was impossible to discover last
night any of McGraw's inside plans
relative TO thtA afternoons fray-even
to the transportation line IN going
there. The team went over to Quaker
Town at o'clock last night. McGraw
remained in town. 1t had been planned
to take the club by airplane to-day but
so many of the sterling athletes backed
out at the last moment the aerial route
for general mobilization had to be dis
pensed with.
A representative of the Curtiss people
was at the Polo Grounds yesterday af-
ternoon and assured McGraw that three
planes were availa bic and at his serv-
ice, but at a late hour last night Nc
Graw was undecided as to whether to
make the fight alone, and there ap-
peared no rush OF eleventh hour volun-

In all probability Jess Barnes or
Benton will inaugurate the 1919 cam
paign for McGraw. The Little Napoleon,
however, will not be caught short
handed for the occasion. He may not
be overly we'll supplied with veteran
talent, but all the seasoned twirlers
that he has--and this goes even for

NR. SAMUEL MASON BACK FROM
JAPAN AND SIBERIA.

Mr.. Samuel Mason. special commis-
,,ioner OF the Hebrew SneAtAAsilig and
Immigrant Aid Society Of America to
Japan and Siberia, has returned from
his second journey to the Far East
In the interests of the thousands OF
Jewish refugees. Mr.. Mason was nine
months in Yokohama (where on his
first visit he established Branch
of the Society and in .ylad,vostok.
uarbin and Irkutss.
Mr.. Mason pointed out that while
IN Poland. Lithuania and other conn
tries there are big. well organized
Jewish communities. which are In direct
touch with the world at large, and the
refugees in those countries are also
supported by American Jewish Re
lief Committees. the refugees In Si-
bcria, China and Japan are complete
lv cut off from the outside world and
are therefore in worse condition
than their unfortunate sisters ami
brothers elsewhere.
A complete report of the life saving
work of the Hebrew Sheitering and
Immigrant Aid Society of America IN
the Far East Is being prepared by
Mr. Mason. For the present Mr..
Mason would only say that great
number Of Jewish rcfugeeSwere actual
ly saved from death by the Society
while great deal of others have been
helped in other ways. He said that
the work is very far from finished.

sacred writings or of the Jewish the
ory concerning religious doctrine. In
other words, the Jewish faith in this
respect, was entirely unlike the other
religions of antiquity. We need but
instance by way of contrast, the re-
ligion of ancient Egypt in which the
mysteries were kept absolutely secret
not only from the non-believer, but
even from its own adherents. In the
religion of Isis, it was only the priest
who knew the secrets Of the faith, and
these We're carefully guarded, being
handed down by word of mouth from
one generation of priests to another.
Judaism never had any such institu-
tion; its Ten Commandments, its
Bible, its Talmudic interpretations.
were at all times and in all ages open
to any individual or people who cared
TO study them.
1t has been held by many. and right
Iy so, that Judaism has mission in
the world But having mission is
far different from being II missionary.
Its mission may be said to consist of
spreading its truths and ethics, not
by force of arms, but by the force of
example. If the Jew can show that
by living up to the doctrines of his
faith. he becomes distinguished Us
philosopher aud philanthropist, If, by
the same means he becomes credit
to his country whether he be laborer.
merchant or scholar, then the mission
Of Judaism has been fulfilled.-Max
