With two on bases in the sixth in- ming at New York yesterday and St Louis three runs behind,@ Outfielder MoHenry hit home run into the left field beachers, tying the score at three all.
 Roger Hornsby's wild heave over first base gave the Giants one run and a chance to score two more in the game at New York yesterday. Horns by was trying for a double play when he clipped in the heave.

 Just take a glimpse at the finish of the first Yankee-iSt. Louis game. The Brownies were leading to 3 and the bases were filled, with two out, in the first of the ninth, and Babe Ruth was at bat. The table was all set for a gorgeous run banquet, and the crowd of 15,O00 sat back with bated breath as the super-slugger faced Dixie Davis. It looked like one of the real old fashioned finishes for the Tanks when Ruth took. a mighty swing and hotsted high fly to Baby Doll Jacobson in centerfied for the third out. !

In The Theatres
PLAZA.

One of the best vaudeville and photoplay programs that has struck Bridgeport this season was exhibited at the Plaza theatre yesterday to crowded houses. All the folks must have heard about the show from the matinee crowd for they turned out In unusual numbers despite the heat. To Elaine Hammerstein in"The Shad- ow of Rosalie Byrnes," falls the difficult dual role of playing a good sister and a bad one. She is. so to speak, pitted against herself. The sisters are twins, and Fate decrees that the flashy, interruptions actress should play havoc with the happi- ness of her unselfsh, lovable artist sister. It is interesting {" the way through and is probably the best Miss Hammerstein has appeared in since her portrayal of "The Country Cousin"
 The local movie film is still scoring q hit. Several thousand Bridge porters are shown in it, while the cast of players in the film are also local. Every act on the vaudeville bill found no trouble in obtaining big applause. Clifford Wayne and company offered a decided novelty titled "The Indian in Full Dress.' The talent of the members was greatly appreciated and the little boy in the turn was exceedingly clever. Marion Claire. the versatile vocalist, scored a big hit. She has a splendid voice and good selection of song num- bers. Mellon and Rem, in "A Danc- slg Cocktail,' dispensed some good seomedy and offered much clever foot work. They went big. The Hall CTS, in equilibrism and posturing, started the show off good. Interna- tional News and Topics of the Day contains much that is of interest.

WEALTHY GERMANS HAVE STRUGGLE

Berlin, July 30-How the erstwhile weH-to-do live in present-day Ger many Is described in the Allgemeine Zeitung by an elderly high state func- tionary, a married man with a family who says that although he belongs to the upper 30,000 in Prussia, according to the income tax schedule. his style of living is reduced to that of a plain laborer.
 'I own a fine mansion in a fash ionable Berlin suburb" he writes, "but we have been obliged to let four rooms furnished. and will have to re- strict our own apartments still further.
 Before the war. we breakfasted on eggs and bacon, white bread and but ter, with tea with cream and sugar; now we have to content ourselves with thin gruel, black bread, no but ter or sugar, and the nondescript Official jam.
 "Only once or twice a week does meat appear on the dinner table; never a joint. Wine has been abolish cd. Supper consists of porridge, her rings or cheese. Before the war, the family used seven pints of milk daily; now a quarter of a pint is the allowance.
 "Clothes are worn threadbare; my son mends my shoes and my daughter outs my hair.

WEST END.

Elsie Ferguson is happily cast in the film version of Sir Arthur Wing Pinero's drama of British social life, His House in Order," which began a two days run at the West End theatre last evening.
 The story relates the troubled ad- ventures that befell a vivacious Eng fish girl who entered the home of a Member of Parliament as a gover- ness and afterward become his second wife. The discovery that his first wife was not exactly the paragon which he thought her and the insults to which the heroine is subjected by the relatives of the dead woman, lead to a highly dramatic situation which is worked out in an entertaining manner.

YAMADA Deliberate
AS BILLIARD PLAYER
One of Most interesting Expo
nents of Green Cloth Game.
Distinguished Himself on Coming to
This Country by Defeating Willie
Hoppe-Masse Shot is
His Strong Point.

Koji Yamada, the little Jap from
Tokyo, the land that made the cherry
blossom famous, is one Of the most in
teresting of billiard players. He left
Japan about 1910 and went to Ber-
lin, Germany, TO study medicine ana
bacteriology and become doctor, but
one of the germs called a billiard bug
got into his blood and he became a BIZ
lard player instead. He came to TINS
country in 1912 and entered a profess
sional tournament and Immediately dis
tinguished himself by beating Hoppe,
much to the surprise of everybody, in
Guiding Hoppe himself.
Short of stature with big mass or
black hair, he moves about the table
slowly. never IN a hurry, careful and
deliberate, and if he was ever nervous

TUBERCULOSIS

not stop it's activity. He combined
that chemical with arsenic constitu-
ents. This compound, in staining the
parasite, released the poison which
destroyed it's action, without hurting
the human body. This process is re
versed by Doctor Paschall, who pos
sessed the latent enemy of tuberculo-
sis in the wax, but had to find chem
ical combinations which would make
1t available. His ''mycoleum" differs
also in that it is a combination of
chemical and meteorological products,
whereas Salvarsan is union of
chemicals only. And, while salvarsan
attacks the parasite directly, the my
coleum is supposed to excite the blood
to make the attack.
He at first used the treatment only
in the case of persons in advanced
stages of tuberculosis, who asked for
it. Even in the advanced stages Doc.
tor Paschall claims large record OF
recoveries.
Doctor Paschall had scores of let.
tiers from former patients and ply.

in his life nobody has ever suspected
it. He takes his good and bad luck
with an equal air of indifference that
suggests fatalist.
Yamada's general style of play is
something of the Hoppe system. He
does not specialize in any one thing.
Yamada uses a short cue of 19-ounce
weight. His stroke is quick and short
and snappy. He bends over in shoot
ing so that his chin almost touches
his cue. He is a good executor. Just
before coming from San Francisco,
where he now makes his home, IN
playing red ball in an academy there
he ran 60, which is a record for the
academy. Rouge or red ball IS
game where the player must play from
the red ball each time.
Yamada's one special outstanding
strong point is the masse shot. Even
the other players concede him this
distinction. Some of his fancy ex-
hibition masse shots are nothing less
than wonderful. Yamada has pleas
ing personality, makes friends readily
and is well liked everywhere.
