WORLD’S SERIES TO START OCTOBER 7TH

First Game Will Be Played at the Giants’ Park—Four Umpires Named For Series. Baseball fans all over the country will be interested in the big world’s championship series which will be played between the Giants, of New York, winners of the National League championship, and the Phil adelphia Athletics, winners of the American League pennant. The first game will be played at the Giants’ park, McGraw having won the toss for the third time. Two years ago the Athletics defeated the Giants and last, year the Boston Red Sox defeated them. This year McGraw has great faith that his team will pull out victorious, carry off the big end of the money and float the world’s championship pennant over their park. It is not probable than any fans from this part of Indiana will be able to see any of these games. It would be expensive as a vacation. In New York the general admission will be $2, the upper grandstand will be $3, while a box for four will cost $25. The prices are to be the same at Philadelphia except that the box seats are flat $5 each. But our fans will keep their eyes on the score boards and already there fs some speculation on the result of the great contest of seven games.
