Athletics, their world series opponents
for the second straight year. The bust
ness of preparing for the series will be
interrupted long enough tomorrow for
a victory parade" in honor Of the

Grover Cleveland Alexander, Card

great pitcher. now manager of the

twice yesterday the Cardinals brought
unduplicated In the National League
since 1918. The Giants in 1918 won
101 games and in 1912 they won 1O3.
Convinced Robert Moses Grove,
Connie Mack's ace southpaw, will play
a prominent role in the series, even If
not assigned the pitching job In the
opening game here Thursday, Manager
Gabby Street of the cards pans to give
his players much batting practice
against left-handers. Bill Walker, star
left-hander of the Giants has agreed
to help groom the National Leaguers
for the series
The Cincinnati Enquirer said today
Manager Street. announced before the
Cardinals left there last night that he
would start Paul Derringer, sensational
rookie, in the first game and follow With
wild Biz Hallallan, a. 1eft-hander
who won from and lost to the Athletics
last year.
While .Derringer and Hallahan were
regarded as the logical pitchers for the
first two games, there are many fans
here who believe Bur.eigh Grimes, an

opening game.

Cardinals downtown Office. Box seat

n Jew YORK, September 2S.-The
nj world champion Athletics have
v decided edge over the Cardi-
mails in offensive strength,
measured by the power Of their long
range guns and the ability to strike
swiftly in the pinclles. The Cards excel
IN speed on the bases.
There are weak spots In the AS bat
ting order, but the dynamite Is likely
to explode any time AL Simmons,
Mickey Cochrane or Jimmy Foxx steps
into fast ball. The champions have
a habit Of blasting opposing pitching
all over the premises Just when they
look to be well under control. The
Cubs as well as the Cardinals have had
bitter experience with the ability Of
Macks young men to emerge suddenly
with a cluster of runs.
Gabby Street regards Simmons as
the greatest menace. thereby being in
complete accord with seven American
League managers. Gabby also recalls
Cochrane's smuggling year ago as well
as Foxx's home run that broke up the
with such timely batsmen as Bishop,
Haas and Miller, comprise the prin-
c1pal attacking weapons that Crimes,
Hallahan, Derringer and other Cardinal
sharpShooters must worry about.
As Better SIuggers.
The Athletics in the seasons unofi-
cial averages show club batting mark
OF .287 to the Cardinals 1856. The
smuggling records showed a more con-
spictouS difference in favor OF the AS,
who collected 118 home runs against
only So for the Cards.
The last world series told much the
same story as these figures. The club
marks were nothing to brag about, only
200 for the Cards and 1877 for the AS.
The world champions, however, made
ii OF their 35 hits good for extra bases,
including six home runs, whereas the
Cardinals registered only Is extra-base
drives in their total of 80 hits.
Charley Colbert, sensational young
shortstop, was the batting leader Of
the Cards year ago in the champion
ship fray with .316. Sunny Jim Bot
tomley, bothered by a hand injury. hit
only DAB and was q bust" Chick
Hafey hit mere .273. These two slug
gers have been hitting harder than ever
this year, despite the less lively ball,
and are counted upon to redeem,
themselves
If Bottomley and Hafey can hold
their own with Simmons and Cochrane
or Foxx in the long-range work when
booming drives are needed. 1t will be
anybody's series. The difference Is
that the Cardinal pair were compare

In this matter, as in most others, the President
and his wife were in complete accord, although
she seems to have been given the larger share
OF the credit for their temperance decision In
his diary while going through the ordeal the
President recorded his own views on the subject
and explained the reasons that dictated his
ant-liquor policy. Under the date of February
% 1879 he wrote:
after two years the exclusion of wine
from the list of refreshments has turned out
exceedingly well. There is a good deal of
dissipation here. At the receptions of the
British minister and at that of the Mexican
minister disgraceful things were done by
young men made reckless by too much wine.
Hence the necessity for our course is obvious
and is commended in unexpected quarters
Many of the foreign gentlemen speak of it
with approval We shall stick to it"

Although the criticism OF their white ribbon
policy never entirely abated, both the President
and Mrs. Hayes had the great satisfaction of re-
ceiving the plaudits Of the church people and
the commentator Of people of prominence all
the world. Mrs. Hayes was given the
highest praise and greatest honors by the
Women's Christian Temperance Union. She
made a sort of patron saint of their
organization, many of their auxilliaries being
named for her. Wherever she went until the
time OF her death the temperance women paid
her homage and sounded her praises continually
in most extravagant terms Finally as the
Hayes administration drew to a close the organ
iZation decided to unite upon some concrete
expression OF their high regard for her cour-
ageous stand for temperance, and they
GUIDED that a handsome public drinking fountain
conspicuously placed in the Capital should be
appropriate. This idea was not particularly
pleasing to Mrs. Hayes. She had seen too many
of these fountains fall through neglect Finally
some one had happy thought-the tribute
should be life size portrait presented to the
Nation by the organization. This idea was
adopted and Daniel Huntington was commits
stoned to do the work. The artist was enthusi-
astic about his subject and it was he who
selected the tone and fabric of the ruby velvet
gown with its creamy lace touches. Mrs Hayes
beIng brunette with dark eyes and glossy
dark hair, the dark red color enhanced her
natural coloring.
MRS HAYES independence of popular
opinion brought forth more startling
