the arrest of Rube Vanguard on cnarge
OF ticket scalping. Charles II. Epbets

Marquard, a Cleveland detective said his

When Ebbets learned of the arrest OF
Marouard he said he was sincerely sorry
that the big pitcher had not been held In
custody, and that the Brooklyn club
would not spend five cents on bail for
Marouard. This lends serious aspect

the greatest catch seen in many a
world series.
To those who had attended the series
games In Brooklyn the affair to-day
was an eyeopener. Cleveland gave
Brooklyn few lessons In the organiza-
ton of enthusiasm, in spontaneity of
outbursts, in the development OF the
proper color
In SO far as the decorations at the
park were concerned the setting was just
as sombre as that In Brooklyn. There
was only one flag. out in centrefield.
There was no bunting. There was no band
But the crowd made its own music. II
was not that harmonious stuff which or
dinarily goes by the name of music. but
l. was the greatest music In the world to
the ball player and the baseball fan
the music which comes raucous from the
male throat and shrill from the female
the music which comes from the hui
man voice shouting encouragement. ap-
probation. wonderment. And Cleveland
did not stint itself In that
There was more color here this after
noon than there had been in all the
games In Brooklyn. There were more
women here than there had been at any
game In Flatbush. But we will not say
that there was more female quality than
there had been In Brooklyn.
1t Is conceded that the girls and
women of Cleveland are pretty, but they
can no more compare with their sisters
in the New York sector than a home
run can compare with two base hit.
The weather was even warmer than
it had been In Brooklyn on Thursday.
1t was that warmish Indian summer
kind which comes with a kindly sun.
There was nary a cloud In the sky.
OF in the distance where the skies
meet the earth there was hazy. light
purple screen which came up to meet
the blue. Behind left centre the hills
ranged In the distance
Almost everywhere In the park one
could see human beings. There was
almost a circle of men and women
around the playing field. the only place
where a bare and drab fence showed
being in right field, half way to centre.
In right centre there was a huge and
unsightly bleacher which looked as If
1t might interfere with the men out
there. But It turned out that the stand
was farther back than 1t looked, for
nobody hit the ball into X.
Men sit in Shirt Sleeves.
In the stands there was color and
then some more color. 1t was a mid
summer scene rather than one of early
fall. In the bleachers men sat in their
shirt sleeves Furs were de trop with
the women. 1t was big crowd, but
1t was a good natured one. 1t could
afford to be, for things went it's way
from the opening. inning.
Before the game Speaker was pre-
scented with loads and loads of flowers
and then with a big limousine. The
flowers, II laid alongside each other
would have made chain all the way to
Batavia, N. Y. The automobile was
decidedly long on looks, and made many
fond father hope that some day his
son would achieve similar distinction
and a limousine gratis.
1t was scene and a day which made
men contrast 1t with the time when
Cleveland thought 1t had reached the
height OF baseball excitement. We mean
the days of the Temple Cup series with
