The crestfallen Hoosiers held the
upper hand until the unfortunate
incident of Monday night. After
that it was a waltz for the Birds.
While the Red Birds we're clinch-
ing the eastern division honors here
last night, the Millers of Minneapolis
moved to within one game of clinch-
ing the western division honors.
The post-season playoff series for
the A. A. flag will begin in the

The birds and Millers battled in
the playof last year, Columbus
winning The Birds we're tops over

two clubs this season Minneapolis
has defeated Columbus ten times
and the Birds have downed the Mil
lers eleven times. And there is
another angle The Birds scored
only three victories in ten games at

only three wins in eleven games at

The indians of 1884 bowed out on
the home park last night by taking
another humping at the hands OF
the Columbus Red Birds. The VIC
tory placed the Birds on top of the
eastern division of the A. A. race
and they will battle Minneapolis in
the post-season playoff for the
pennant, the winner to represent
the league in the junior world series.
The score last night was 6 to 3.
The Tribe will play an exhibition
tilt at Anderson tonight, meeting
the Anderson Indians, after which
they will go to Louisville and en-
deavor to win fourth place in the
eight-club standing. Four games
will be played with the Colonies,
one tomorrow, one Saturday and
two Sunday. Most of the Redskin
FASTENERS are packed up" and will
depart for their homes from Louis
vile.
In the six-game series with the
Red Birds here the Indians won
two, tied one and lost three. The tie
was the disputed" game of Monday
night that was called by rain due to
umpire's blunder With that
"break" in their favor the Columbus
FASTENERS stepped out and cleaned
up in the next three tits.
The closing contest last night was
similar to the two games of Tues
day. The Indians made fight of it
in the early innings and then folded.
Erratic fielding by Vincent Sherlock
at second base gave the Birds the
Jump. No errors we're charged
against Vincent, but juggling act,
performed twice, paved the way for
Columbus first three runs.
Hits were twelve for the visitors
and four for the Indians. Page and
Logan toiled on the Tribe rubber
and Greer and HeusSer worked for
Columbus. Greer was taken out in
the ninth when he lost control.
The Indians and Red Birds fin
ished even in twenty-five games be-
tween them. The Redskins won

FOREST HILLS. n. Y, Sept. ID.
Fred Perry. smiling young Eng
liShman, held the three major anna
teur tennis championships today
American, English and Australian.
But the tennis followers who
flocked to the west side stadium
courts we're not talking so much of
the perfect Shot-making of the
young EngliShman. They were re-
calling the supreme bid of a 80
year-old Texan, Wilmer Allison, who
had never been figured as a possible
f1naliSt until a week or so before
the tourney and who fought his
way to within two games of victory
yesterday afternoon.
The tall Texan, veteran of ten
years of top-flight tennis wars who
has figured more often in doubles
than in singles play, stormed his
way to the gates of the American
title after trailing two sets to love,
only to find he had shot his bolt
against the tireleSs young English
man. Perry won, ga, 6-3, 1-6, 8-6.
Perry was two points away from
the match in the thirteenth game,
but Allison beat him off. In the
final game Perry went to 400, but
Allison, fighting magnificently, beat
off two match points with driving
overhead kills. On the third, Perry
laid him a wicked shot, deep to his
backhand corner.
The Texan got his rackquet on the
ball and, as the crowd stood hushed,
it scared toward the net. A foot
away it was obvious that it wasn't
going to clear and the crowd broke
into a roar of disappointment. AS
the ball hit the canvas strip and fell
back, Perry, a smile of relief on his
face, hurdled the net and shook the
hand of the gamest fighter Forest
Hills has seen in many year.

Ex xpects Big
Season

The biggest resort season in
Florida history is anticipated
for Miami Beach during the
coming winter. Inquiries are
pouring in from States that
have begun to feel the coming
winter.
The leasing of homes and
apartments by Northern visitors
has already begun, and the
Chamber of Commerce is urg-
ing immediate attention to
housing accommodations while
q wide choice is still available.
Meantime, in all sections of
Miami Beach, apartment houses
are being refurnished and re-
decorated to prepare for the
influx.
There is also considerable
new construction of hotels,
apartment houses and private
residences.
The amount of new conStruc-
ton so far this year, totaling
$3,433,856, is double that of
1882 and will probably double
the 1888 record, according to Of
ficial reports.
From August 10 to II the
largest weeks building program
since 1929 was reported by the
city building inspector. The
contracts for the seven-day pc

Several months ago the Red

This year, pleasure travel is
more economical, more pleas

ever before. This is particularly
true, if one visits the South
west. Infinite variety and con-
trast are the very essence OF
the country.
There are underground gal
leries and chambers of eerie
beauty, in Carlsbad Caverns.
The past lies buried in innum-
erable prehistoric ruins OF which
Puye, Frijoles and Mesa Verde

Old Custom Is
Discarded

For centuries a watchman in
the lofty belfry of st. Martin
has kept a wakeful eye on the
quaint old French city of Cam
brai, warning the inhabitants
in case of fire or an attack from
an enemy, and sounding the
hours on a big bell. Each night,
Just before midnight, the
gallus, as the venerable watch
man was known, called, Cam
bresiens, sleep in peace!"-al-
though he often awoke light
sleepers and started dogs to
barking.
Last month, the city, for rea-
sons of economy, dismissed the
Watchman and installed electri-
cal machinery in the belfry to
toll the hours. Thus an artisan
of another historic craft bows
to the march of time.
The name "Cambrai" may
suggest to women the fine cloth
called cambria" and rightly
so, because the fabric was first
woven at Cambria and takes its
name from the town. To the
French, however, it is known as
"batiste," from the name of its
alleged inventor, Baptiste Cou-
taing, a 13-century weaver OF
the city.

full glory.
Naturally, all these changes
and developments have lett
their mark on the country to
this day, as one may easily see
by the varied architecture, the
dress, manners, and even the
physical characteristics of the
people. To note and trace these
marks of the past is a source
of unfailing delight and inter
est to the visitor to this land.
The country abounds in cities
which are, in themselves, artis-
tic gems, and which hold with
in their walls splendid museums
housing the glorious paintings
of the old masters.
Castles of Spain
Spain herself has contributed

of all time-El Greco, Velas-

hanced by the magnificent seen

breath-taking beauty and gran

These castles at one time
formed a great defense to the
country, and, indeed, to see
them now, one feels that they
are still practically impregnable.
so strong. and indomitable do
they seem.
The visitor to Spain is al
ways charmed with the gar
dens-some Of them dating from
the Renaissance period, and Of
exquisite beauty. The SYM
metrical beauty Of the lockwood
in some of the church and mon
astery gardens is unequaled
anywhere else in the world.
