MAYS VERDICT BIG
 HELP TO BASEBALL
With Ban Jolmsons Hands Bound, Attorney for Nani1s Predicts Better
 Times for American League.

New York Oct. 27.--Charles H., Futile, an attorney for the New York American league club in the Ban Johnson Mays case, sees better times for all concerned in the American league, now that the injunction against the czar of the league has been made permanent by Justice Wagner. MT. Futile eVinces more than professional delight in the fact that the case was won for his clients, and he believes that the junior major league can make more rapid progress with Johnson's hands bound. The attorney issued the following statement last night:
 Justice Wagner's decision making permanent the Mays injunction, sus- tains all the contentious of the New York club, and restores in full the chartered liberties of the eight clubs composing the American league. It liberates the large investments in the properties of these clubs from con- trOl by one man, who was supposed to have no interest in any Of the clubs .rHd to be merely the Salaried scrvaM of the league, but who seem ingl% I asserted himself as d sort of E government, not only over the p.urcrty of the club owners, but over their chosen board of directors and their own association as a league.
 ''Thc decision constitutes a guar anty that the regulations of respon- sible men of affairs In baseball shall not be at tho mercy of the mere fiat of any official of the league. It termi mates MT. Johnson's assumption of power to punish clubs who assert
 
 to each club that right of home rule and domestic discipline which was one of the chief concerns of the framers of the leagues constitution. It Censures any prOnouncement Of condemnation without that perfect appreciation of tho facts which evi- dences a desire to do equity to all parties concerned: and it confines the president of the league to his in tended service as the guardian of good rder on the baseball field"

ALUMNI LOSES TO
 N. B. H. $. ELEVEN
Former Stars Show Lack of Training and Regulars Cross Their Line
 TWicC-Rig Crowd Looks On.

By 13 to 0 score the N. B. H. S. team defeated the Alumni eleven Sat urday afternoon on St. Mary's field be- fore one of the largest crowds to wit ness a game on that field this season. The game was not spectacular in any sense of the word, the Alumni eleven offering but little resistance in spite of the widely advertised "All-Connccti- cut line" The victors were outweigh cd by at least 10 pounds. During the last period as therc appeared to be lit tie use for a first string team on the field, the second string men were sent lntO action and the game closed with but one Ilcmbar of the regular squad on the field, four of the second team, and six O. the third-raters It was impossible even with those odds for the Alumni to carry the ball over the line.
 The scoring started in the first pc riOd when Burns was given the ball and went across the line after an end run. He kicked the goal for the sey- cnth point of the game. That was the only score of the first quarter and in tho second period Pepleau, who re- placed Vibberts at fullback, carried the ball over at the other end Of the field. Burns missed the kick for a goal, the pigS<n striking the cross- bar The old-timcrs worked hard but for the greater part were sadly out uf condition and unable to stand the gaff. causing many changes on the field.

NUTMEGS WIN AGAIN
Eleven Is Downcd for First Time This Season on Seymour Park GrfdirOn, Score to 5.

Park Grfdiron, Score 2 to 5. Playing with 8 zeal that has char acterized their work this season, the Nutmegs of this city doWned the All Hartford football eleven yesterday afternoon on the Seymour Park grid iron, score to 8. The defeat was the first to be registered against the Capital City aggregation this season, and it was also the first time that their goal line has been crossed. The teams battled along for three periods with no score. In the fourth period, Landers kicked a field goal and things looked bad for the locals. However, the fighting spirit of the Nutmegs became aroused, and constant line smashing made it possible for Nervo Nelson to carry the ball over the goal line two minutes before the final blast of the referees whistle. Nelson dropped the pigsl1in, but the alert Winninger fell upon the ball, saving the day for the green jerseyed boys Andrews booted the ball through the bars from a difficult angle. The lineup: Nutmess. All-Hartfords.

REAL PEACEMAKER, THIS DOG
Human Fools Completely Cured of All
Desire to Fight With Any Kind
Of Living Thing.

Three men in Brooklyn, neighbOrs
and friends, were sent to ST. Cath
crimes hospital recently suffering with
dog bites, and were attended by the
surgeons. The men were sitting In
the back yard of the residence Of one
Of them and got into an argument
which turned into a free-for-all fight.
The dog of one of the men, who was
lying asleep, said to himself: as not
this pretty picture? Men have no
right to make brutes of themselves;
much less friends who have no reason
for a difference. But since they really
want to fight so badly I viii teach
them how to do the trick"
And so he rushed in and began to
bite them terribly, not sparing his
master. Stung with the pain, they
turned from knocking each other to
fight the dog; but he was too much
for them, and cleaned out the crowd.
Completely vanquished, the men made
a break for high fence and climbed
upon that, but the dog chewed the
calves of their legs till they pulled
themselves up out of his reach atop
the fence. The dog then went back
to his corner as though saying to him
self: "Now l guess they are cured 1t
will be good, while before they will
disturb the peace of this neighbor-
hood again, or disgrace my back
yard" And they were cured, sure
enough. All the fight was gnawed
out of them. They did not want to
fight each other, and from considera-
tons of penitence and prudence they
did not even want to fight the dog.

NOTED PORT OF WANDERERS
Samara, on the VoIga, Long the Lure
of Nomadic PeopIe-lts
Past History.

Samara, the Volga port, seems to
offer peculiar significance for the
wanderers of the world. Through the
years, says The Villager, the district
has been an especial lure for nomadic
peoples; the fierce tribe of Bulgars
occupied it until the thirteenth CEN
fury and were followed by the Mon
gols, and when the power of the Col
den Horde had waned the V0lga bank
was still ravaged by Bashkirs, Kali
mucks and. Nogal Tartars; the insti-
tuition of the city of Samara itself was
for the protection of the Russian en-
pire's frontiers against the depreda-
tons of these nomadic marauders
from the steppes.
In the effort to stabilize this border
region and make it a solid bulwark,
Catherine II offered Germans of
Wuertemburg and Baden special priv
ileges for settlement here; today as
much German as Russian may be
heard in the streets of Samara.
Yet, after all the centuries of effort,
the city is again swept by wanderers,
fighting hordes who know no military
base" gypsy warriors who have trav-
ersed the Siberian expanse without
baggage and without plan of cam
paign, with no orders save their own
impulse, with no responsibilities save
their own purpose; their exploit will
int ftrH oh
picturesqeeness as that of Genghiz
Kahn's followers and with far more
honor.

Youthful Saint.

st. Agnes was a Roman virgin, and
martyr, who at the age of 10 suffered
persecution and was beheaded under
Diocletian about the year 304. AT
Rome there is an annual procession in
her honor, when lamb, highly deco
eated, is led through the city. The
connection of her name with the Latin
Or lamb-agnus-probably has led to
ne association Of this animal with her
lemory.
