burgh Pirates of the Western
team end Of the National League ap-
peared to have the easiest assignment
for the holiday and took the oppor-
tunity to let their heavy.booted feet
slip twice. Cincinnati tripped them up.
The second of the two Pittsburgh.
Cincinnati games was very hard to
lose-very hard, indeed, on Lee Mead
ows, who has drawn some of Pitts
burghs tough luck contests this year
Still and all, if there is anything in
the modern maxim that the team first
on Labor day can be first at the end
of the season, the Pirates have the
best of it on the face of that mystify-
ing old beldame. Superstition
The Chicago Cubs finally contrived
to win game, breaking the long run
Of disaster that had wrapped itself
around their necks. But the Cubs. to
have made the day one of blessing to
them, should have thrashed the ST.
Louis team twice and soundly. That
would have restored confidence in the
Cubs, whose backsliding has fairly
torn out the hearts of their followers
in Chicago.
Giants String Is Cut.
The winning streak of the New York
Giants was stopped short by the Bos-
ton Braves and thus the Braves added
TO their reputation as wreckers of pen
nant hopes. If the Giants had been
able to win both games of their double
header instead Of one they would have
gained so handsomely on Pittsburgh
that they would have become more of
a menace than they are at present.
The Labor day games have not
cleared up the fight of the Giants in
the East, for they play Boston again
today. Then they lose the the advan-
tage, whatever it may be, of playing on

STARTS OCEAN FLIGHT
Captain Saint Roman Hops on
 From Senegal On His Attempt To
 Fly To Brazil.

Dakar, West Africa. May 5 P- Captain Saint Roman. French avi- ator left St. Louis, Senegal, at 6:30 o'clock this morning. He is at tempting to fly across the Atlantic in a nonstop voyage to Pernambuco Brazil, a distance of about 1875 miles.
 On Tuesday the French bureau of aeronautics announced that official sanction for Captain Saint Romans flight had been withdrawn because he was planning to proceed across the Atlantic without pontoons. He substituted ordinary landing gear after a pontoon was damaged.
 And it was pointed out by the bu- reau that forced descent on the sea with such landing gear would mean disaster.
 The bureau of aeronautics sup plemented it's first announcement with the statement that official sanction for the flight would be given if the aviator consented to re- install pontoons.
 Late reports from Dakar. giving no indication that Saint-Roman was aware Of the bureaus view, said that he was going ahead with his plans for the trans-ocean at tempt.

lowing prices per imperial (forty ounce) quart are most probable:
 Scotch $6.
 Brandy $.
 Gin, Rum and Canadian Whis- key $4.
 Beer will cost about IT cents quart and g a case. Wines will range from about $7 case for the native product to $7 bottle for the rare imported vintages.
 The liquor commission has been surveying the province in recent weeks with regard to the opening of stores. The number in each city varies according to population and proximity to the border. Hamilton with 30,00O citizens will have three stores: Windsor, with a much smaller population but with Detroit as a neighbor, will also have three.
 The current belief is that the gov- ernmental restrictions will be modi- fled after the new law comes into operation. A large part of the province is in favor of sale of beer by the glass at hotels and restau- rants.
 Meanwhile, the wide powers given the Ontaria liquor control commission will enable that body to alter the law if experience shows the need.
 The three men who form the commission and control law en- forcement are David Blythe Hanna. chairman; Hon. R. K. Manion and Stewart NcClenaghan. Hanna, a former president of the Canadian National Railway. receives an an- nual salary of $20,0oo. He is one of Canada's best known industrial ists and director of half dozen great companies. Manion Is for mer federal government minister and McClenaghan a prominent busi- ness man.
