When they were not battling with river pirates or their hated rivals, the crews of ttatboats and rafts, they were engaged In savage rough-and-tumble combats among themselves. Perhaps the toughest of them all was Mike Fink. Heartless as he was In many ways, Fink was strongly devoted to Will Carpenter and Frank Talbeau, his companions on the famous AshleyHenry fur trading expedition up the Missouri In 1822. The three men quarreled frequently, but they always signified that their differences were ended by a peculiar rite. One would set a cup of whisky on his head and let the other shoot It off as a test of friendship and a proof of the truce. In the north country they met a half-breed girl whom both Carpenter and Fink wooed. She gave herself to Carpenter and Fink maddened by this defeat In love, challenged Carpenter to prove that he was also the better man In a fight. Again Carpenter was the victor. This fight cleared the atmosphere somewhat, but when Fink still seemed resentful. Talbeau suggested the rite of "shooting the cup.” On the toss of a coin Fink won the right to shoot and when Carpenter looked into his eyes he knew that his friend meant to murder him. But he placed the cup of whisky on his head and stood racing bls slayer fearlessly. Fink took careful alm and fired. At the report Carpenter crumpled to the ground, shot squarely between the eyes. Fink protested that the fatal shot was an accident, but Talbeau was only half-convinced. A short time later Fink, while in his cups, confessed that he had killed his friend deliberately. Talbeau was merciless. He the traitor and drove him forth the barren lands to the east.

" J TALES OF THE ♦ OLD FRONTIER ♦ : — : ♦ By ELMO SCOTT WATSON * t**++*+**++*++++****** u£ 1.83, Western Newepaper vulva > “HE DIED GAME” WHEN a man of the old frontier came to the end of the trail there was but one valedictory for him if he was one of the true border breed —"He died game." A party of buffalo hunters was surrounded by hostile Indians in the Yellowstone country of Montana. The bullets of the savages had shattered the leg of one of the hunters so badly that be could not ride. If Ids companions stayed with him, as they offered to do, it meant the death of them all. He asked for his revolver and, although they knew why he wanted it, they brought it to him. He put the muzzle to his temple and pulled tin trigger. The cartridge did not explode. The hunter looked at the weapon curiously. "That was the first time it ever failed me" he said quietly. Then he rolled the cylinder one notch —and this time It did not fall him. Once some Texas cowboys who had made a semi-official punitive expedition across the Rio Grande were captured by the Mexicans. General Santa Ana ordered that they should draw from a jar filled with black beans and white beans to determine who of their number should face a firing squad. Major Cook, who had just passed his thirtieth birthday, plunged Ids hand into the jar and drew >ut a black bean. "Well,” he said with a smile, "they rob me of only 40 years.” Another Texan, named Henry Whaling. looked at the death sentence which he held in his hand. "They don't make much off of me. I've killed more than 25 of their yellowbellies” he said with a touch of pride in his voice. Up on a Michigan river a crew of lumber jacks were trying to break a log jam. They were "dry-picking,” slow, laborious work under the jumbled mass of timber that towered 40 feet In the air. Under the very face of the mass was a young fellow named Jimmy Powers. Suddenly there was a roar and the mass of logs lurched forward. A dam upstream had broken. In a flash Jimmy Towers realized that he was trapped. So he jerked off his battered old felt hat and hurled It defiantly In the very face of the solid wall of logs and water that poised over him for a second. "So long, fellows I” spectators on the banks above heard the voice of Jimmy Powers. Then the logs crashed down. Montana buffalo hunter, Texas cowboy, Michigan lumber jack—frontiersmen all —they died game. i

Oct. 11—(Special to Daily Democrat) —Off on the wrong root again, the New York Yanks were I facing the prospect of having some unpleasant bits of 1921 and 1922 history repeat themselves as they prepared for the second game of the 1 world's series today with the Giants, i Down one on the National league » champions, outplayed and out-thought • in a game they should have won at ’ least six times, the plight of the ’ Yankees was painful. After yesterday's exhibition of e how they can’t play ball, the Yanks , must have felt this morning like the . weather—cloudy, murky, gloomy and . sour. i- Rain Last Night Wetted down by a night of intermittent rainfall, the field at the Polo grounds where the battle is to be re-

DECATUR DAILY DEMOCRAT, THURSDAY, OCTOBER 11,1923.

| r’t: d today was ready to give the ails etes and the fans another day to think over one of the greatest games ever played which opened the series Commissioner Landis said this

I morning that he had received a reI port that the field was In good condl- ’. tion and that the teams would play • this afternoon if the threatened rain II held off. I One wise crack was made after the I game that no team In the world would have lost a game like the op- • ening conflict but the Yankees. No other major league team of first division class could have acted so mentally sluggish and so mechanically, uncertain. Ruth tripled in the fifth with one 1 out: Sehang doubled in tho sixth with two out; Dugan tripled in the seventh with one out and Pipp singled in the eighth with one out and the Yanks didn't score. Stupid Base Running Stupid base running by Witt and Plpp and the over-daring of Babe Ruth in trying as Ruth always tries to win cost the Yanks the game. Jimmy O'Connell, the $75,000 California beauty, remarked quietly after the game: “The best way to beat the Yanks 's to let them get on base because they don’t know what to do when they get there.” The mental alertness and the mechanical perfection of the Giants stopped every chance the Yankees had 4<M-*-ggam,i .-’'s home TAr t 0 win the Fame. Jn J 4,un in the ninth inning was the hr-,, cisive punch that caused the Yankees take the count but it was George Kelley’s miraculous stop of Ruth’s sure double in the seventh and his phenomenal throw to the plate cutting off Dugan that stopped a winning rally by the Yanks. No play in any series or any game could compare with the , brilliant quick thinking and spontaneous action provided by Kelly—not even the sensational Rawlings. Kelly and Groh 'ouble play that made the last out 'n the 1921 series. Giants Are Confident The Giants figure that they are in now. "That victory will be worth more than if we had beaten them 15 to 0." one of the Giant players said today. ‘lf they had gone down in a onesided game they would have thought •hat fine pitching stopped them, that they had all the bad breaks or that they were in a slump. But they outhit us and we out thought them ind you know they should have won he game. The Yanks cant think. p hey know it and they know that hey can't learn to think in a few lays." Giants Fear Pennock The Giant players feel that they would take the series in straight tames if they had Herb Pennock out f the way. The champions do not attempt to deny that they regard the left handed former Boston pitcher very seriously. Pennock no doubt will pitch today for the Yankees and it is almost certain that Art Nehf. the Giant southnaw. will oppose him. Nehf was -eady to go yesterday and he was Peeved that he wasn't selected. With Pennock in the box for the Yanks the Giants will make a switch in the outfield where BTI Cunningham will replace Casey Stengel. The vther positions on the defense will be manned by the same agile, quick hinking athletes. The Yankee regulars bat against left handed and right handed pitching and they all think the same way against all kinds of pitching. As long as the Yanks refuse to exercise their mental apparatus, the alleged weakness of the Giants pitching staff will be no factor in the series. The Grant players probably will ‘ell their pitchers—“ Let 'em get on base and we'll take care of 'em for vou.” For spectacular playing yesterday, ttengel and Kelly held the limelight but Frank Frisch, that brilliant Fordham star, had as much to do with the victory as anyone. He made two phenomenal stops that off set runs and he was all over the field. Attendance was 55.307 The official paid attendance was 55 307, which made a new series record and the actual attendance probably was 58,000. The receipts, which also established a new record, were $181,912. which was divided as follows: Advisory council $27,288 80 • Each club's share $30,925.05. Players' share $92,775.12. — o Near the Year's End. The 'ast orchids of the year bloom , In September and October.
