RECORDS MADE
AT CLEVELAND
An Unassisted Triple Play BY Wamb-
sganss-Cleveland Much Elated
Over Two Victories.

CLEVELAND, o., Oct. lin a
baseball game of sensational and thrilling
plays. far beyond the widest dreams OF
an imaginative fiction or scenario writer,
the Cleveland Americans defeated the
Rrooklvn Nationals, 5 to l, IN the htth
contest of the worlds series here yeSter-
dav afternoon. An unaSsisted triple play
by William Wambsganss, native porn
son of Cleveland, and home runs by Ennef
Smith and Jim Bagby were trlo OF IN
dividuaI feats which formed hashlight
photographs on the brains of the tans
which no future diamond battle can erase.
The victory broke the tie existing be
tween the pennant winners OF the tWo
major leagues and Cleveland Is confident
that the first American league pennant
ever won by this city will be overshad-
owed bv the great glory of the worlds S
series banner to be flung to the breezes
The Brooklyn Robins, crushed by the
two terrible Catastrophes of Saturday ana
Sunday are clinging desperately to the
hone that Sherrod Smith may be able TO
check the savage battling onslaught 9l
the Indians, but the home team and fans
declare that nothing can stop the rush
of the ClevelanderS. now that they have
solved the mystery of the Flatbush hurl-
ing staff.
The calibre of the play may be gath
cred from the fact that two world : rec
ords were established during the hour and
40 minutes in which the tribe of Speaker
tore great handfuIs of plumage from the
stunned and helpless Robins. Never be-
fore in the history of the worlds series
had a triple play been made by one
player. and so seldom has this baseball
feat been accomplished in the history of
either major or minor leagues that each
and every such play is familiar to thou
sands of fans.
4 home run with the bases full is also
an innovation in the modern history OF
the super-series. yet both these records
were made at League park here yester-
day afternoon with a second home run
four double plays and score Of other
fielding and batting features which would
have been acclaimed as thrilling during
the course of a normal world series con
hiet.

FORT ETHAN ALLEN, Oct. IL
Starting a 30O-mile endurance test to
determine the best type of horse for the
cavalry charger of the future, ~ mounts
of high degree set out from the army
post here today. The horses brought
to the test the blood of the Arabian
desert king and of English Derby win
ners, the selected breeding of the Amer
lean turf, the registered qualities of the
thoroughbred, and the hardy strain of
the famous Justin Morgan. The riders
attracted almost as much interest as
their mounts. Horsemen all, they in
cluded a nationally known polo player,
"a Chicago banker, army officers who had
ridden into Mexico after Villa, a bron-
cho buster and a Negro jockey of race

The days stint was go miles with
Norwich university at Northfield as the

Of the race the horses were required to
cover the distance in not less than nine
nor more than II hours. This time al

greater and it would simulate the severe
conditions of a forced march. The test
Is scheduled to end at Camp Devens,

proXimatey 60 miles each.
Whether the final stage will be In
Massachusetts was said to be in doubt

SAVING EFFECTED
BY COOPERATION
Town Given Permission to
Connect with Village
Sewer
TO PREVENT DAMAGE
BY SURFACE WATER

Town Officials Visit South Main Street
and Work Out Plan for Laying Drain.
age Pipes to Stop Damage to Cemetery
Properties.
Through an investigation yesterday
and through cooperation with the viii
lage commissioners, the Brattleboro Sc
lectmen have figured out a way to take
care of the South Main street drainage
question at a large saving, perhaps ST.
900 or $4,000.
Because of damage to both the Pros
pcct Hill cemetery and the Morningside
cemetery, principally to the latter, the
sclectmen, Town Attorney A. z. Car
penter and Road Commissioner c. ].
Dube looked over the ground yesterday
with view to preventing the surface
water from the Oak Grove and South
Main street sections flowing down on
70 the cemetery property and washing
down dirt and gravel and causing gui-
hes and washouts.
There exists now 10-inch sewer
south of the South Main street drive to
Aorningside cemetery, extending from
South Main street down past the Cox
house on the cemetery property and un-
der Vernon street to the river. The
FIildSc COMMISSIONERS nave gwen the
lectmen permission to connect with that
sewer, which viii save laying a new sur
face drainage tile line to the river.
The plan is to dig ditch on the west
side of South Main street from Wash
ington street to the Pine street corner,
where there is a catch basin, and to lay
a tile line between those two streets.
Another line will be laid from the catch
basin south to the top of the rise south
of Pine street to take care of the water
which flows north. The water from the
catch basin now flows through pipe
under the street and spills on open
ground near the cemetery, but this pipe
will be connected with the sewer pipe.
Near the point farther south where
drainage from the Oak Grove section
oyerfows South Main street and washes
down on to the Morningside cemetery
road another pipe line viii be started,
which will extend southwark along the
west side to connect with a drain which
is now being laid near the Fort Dunmer
mills property.
