Yanks Are Confident.

New York, Oct. with their
heads up and their feet stepping
high, Miller Huggins and his Yam
KEGS hove briskly into the third
station of the world series journey
today. Il. |
Wobbling behind on weary legs,
the Giants OF McGraw, beat rather
disconsolate tramp, two games In
the rear. With seven of their heavy
hitters turned back hitless in two
games, with the plate untouched
by a Giant in IS innings Of hectic
baseball and with two OF their
best pitchers beaten, the Giants bore
nothing in their demeanor today to
back up their assertion that We're
not discouraged
Tho Yanks go into the third game
today, two to one favorites among
the betting fraternity. Toney for the
Giants and Shawky or Harper for
the Yankees will be the probable
pitching selections.

Where are the old-fashioned folk

Come, folks, and meet Mrs. Fred

born.
Mrs. Manning you viii remember,
is the former Helen Taft, daughter of
Chief Justice William Howard Taft,
and prior to her marriage acting

Mrs. Manning's education did not
interfere with her becoming a mother.
Nor has it in the case of thousands OF
other American girls who have had
the sense to procure a higher educa-
ton than that given TO their mothers
Some day some folks will realize
that an educated woman can be as
good and as intelligent mother as
the woman who never had educational
opportunities. But our socia
superstitions die hard.

HARD WORK FOR THB SENATE

The House Of Representatives is on
part time. Having disposed of the
tariff and tax revision and not being
concerned In the ratification OF
treaties, il meets on Saturday in
order to adjourn until "Wednesday, and
assemblies on Wednesday in order 20
adjourn until Saturday. Its members
are having a great chance to catch
mp with their novel reading. 1t Is
different at the other end of the Cari-
tol. The leaders OF the Senate thought
OF having night sessions 80 that dis
cussion of the treaties with Germany
Austria and Hungary might not hold
up the tax revision measure which
the Administration has so much at
heart. This extreme course is not to
be followed, but the Senate will make
an extra effort TO dispatch the busi-
ness that is crowding it's calendar.
There will be general satisfaction
over this prospect. II is conceded
that the opposition to ratification OF
| the treaties will not be able TO muster
/ two dozen votes. This means that
/ half of the Democratic Senators will
vote for ratification or not vote at all.
Under these circumstances there is n
justification for delaying vote. With
/ the treaties out Of the way, the debate
on tax revision should speed up. Then
will come the proposal to give the
! Secretary of the Treasury power over
refunding the foreign debt, the pro-
posal to aid the railroads with money
obtained by selling railroad securities
held by the Goverpment-and possibly
the tariff. The Administration Is said
TO be "reconciled" TO the long delay
on the tariff because the situation Ii

tariff and because there are more
pressing matters which it desires &C
see disposed of. The country also II
