SOUTH CHICAGO NEWS

X mysterous bomb explosion took place after midnight Tuesday night at the gas house of the People's Oas Light and Coke company at Ninety-sixth

street and Erie avenue. Three masked men entered the engine room of the gas house and put a bomb in the oil cup and bound and gagged John Sul

livan. The bomb exploded and shat

tered the Journal of the engine and tore

a huge hole In the wall. John Sullivan,

the engineer told the police the follow

ing story: "The men entered the engine room with masks on and made for me.

I threw up my hand, as I thought they were hold-up men. The leader, a husky bodied man, said not to make an outcry or I would be shot, they then bound

and gagged me and put me In a corner

of the engine room and set the bomb off and turned the light out. I could

see the fuse burning, and when

thought it was almost time for It to go

orr, i shut my eyes, then there was a blinding flash, which shattered the journal of the engine and tore a large

hol in the wall." The police are on the lookout for the culprits and expect to arrest them In a short while, as they have- a clew to their identity. V?m. Derolk, 16 years old, a scholar at the South Chicago Business college, Ninety-second street and Commercial avenue, fell backwards off a railing on which he was sitting and sustained a severe scalp wound. The ambulance physician dressed his wounds. He was taken to his home, 42 West One Hundred and Third street. J. Lorsill of Buffalo avenue is spending a few days with friends in Hammond.

SCALPER PROMISES GOBjSOX TICKETS Despite Efforts of Management Brokers Promise to Have Pasteboards.

Valparaiso was here yesterday, overseeing the work on Bormann boulevard. Henry Keilman and family, formerly of this city, has moved to Gary, and will make that their future residence. His sons work in the steel mills, and this will make it nearer to their work.

TOLLESTON. Miss Martha Scliaag of Whiting was in this city today and gave her weekly music lessons at the public schools. Miss Edith Fuller, one of the teachers in the schools here, is confined at her home in Crown Point with typhotd fever. Miss Wilma Gallagher, a senior in high school, is substituting for her this week. Miss Fuller is doing nicely, and we hope she will soon be back again. . H. A. Town6ley was in Crwn Point on business Monday. Mr. Conover of Conover & Taber of

MUNSTER. Miss Etta Henderson visited at the

home of Mr. and Mrs. J. Kraay last

evening.

Miss Minnie Kaske was a visitor in

Hammond last evening.

Charles Stallbohm went to Dyer on

business yesterday.

Misses Jennie and Alice Tompkins of Litchfield. Minn., are visiting friends

here for a few weeks.

J. Wiers or Highland was here yes

terday on business.

Despite the efforts of the club officials an dSecretary Ernest Bernard to keep the cub-sox tlkets out of the

hands of scalpers there seems to be a

general opinion that the latter will

secure them in sufficiently large quan-

lties. As no tickets were given out

ast night there were none to be se

cured around the city, but the tip or

come around tomorrow," was handed

out at most of the places.

A reporter visited all of the hotels

in the downtown district last mgm

and at only two places was he in

formed that no tickets could be se

cured there. These two places were

at the Palmer House and the Brevoort

At the Auditori-um Annex he was in

formed that if he left his name one

would, be reserved for him today. He wnn rffrrer1 to the Annex Theater

Ticket agency by the stand at the Au ditorlum.

Same replies were given at the new

La Salle, the Wellington ana me

Stratford. "Nothing definite today, cut

come around tomorrow," was the tip.

It was evident that all of these places had hopes and that they would secure tickets. In the meantime the sox and cub officials are attempting to keep

large numbers out of the hands of one

person, except where he Is well known

and can furnish lists of the men to

whom the tickets will go.

A WARNING

Since its introduction into the United States, the sales of Parisian Sage have been phenomenal. This success has led to many imitations similar in name. Look out for them. They are not the genuine. See that the girl with the T , Auburn hair is on every package. You tn always get the genuine at Summers' Pharmacy. Parisian Sage is the quickest acting

and most efficient hair tonic In the world. It is made to conform to Dr. Sangerbond's (of Paris proven theory that dandruff, falling hair, baldness and scalp itch art' caused by germs. Parisian Sage kills these dandruff germs and removes all trace of dandruff in two weeks, or money back; It stops falling hair and itching scalp and prevents baldness. And remember that baldness is caused by dandruff germs, those little hard working, persistent devils that day and night do nothing but dig Into the roots of the hair and destroy Its vitality. Parisian Sage is a daintily perfumed hair dressing; not sticky or greasy, and any woman who desires luxuriant and bewitching hair can get it in two weeks by using it. "0 cents a large

CLAPwK STATION.

roon football team here. It will take

place Saturday evening, Oct. . 9, at the

be served.

Mr. and Mrs. Fred Behn of Clark

Carl Brown of Clark, who has been sick for the past few weeks, is now

up and around. This is the second time

he was laid up. We all hope he will

again.

J. Rabe of Clark was a Gary busi

nals fore and aft. Chance's three-time

champions of the National league yes

terday surrendered their title, spang

les and all, winnnlng S to 0 and S to

1. in the bargain bill that closed the 1909 season. Recruit Cole smeared on

the calcimine in the curtain raiser

while Rudy Schwenk. assisted by Rel-

bach, paved the way to victory in the

second. By corralling the double

neauer me aying monarchs clinched a

total of 104 triumphs and 49 reverses

for the year.

Now that the whole brain-racking struggle is over there's nothing but happiness in the cub ranks. Under ordinary circumstances the final percent-

tage, .608, would have landed the league honors. The ex-champs maintained a bruising pace throughout the race, but Pittsburg went a lap faster.

The final statistics show Chance's com

Dlnatlon forty-four points astern the smoketown heroes, a vastly different

situation from that of 1908.

Parierewski Smith may carry the

hopes of the south siders tomorrow in

the initial skirmish of the cubs and sox feud at Murphy's park. Whether

the Pitsburg strong man starts the

battle depends entirely upon Chance's selection of pitchers. Sullivan, peace

ful as a clam, declines to announce his

choice. Overall seems the logical can

didate to fling 'em over for the exchamps and if the ponderous Californian draws the task it's a pipe Smithie will be his opponent. Visions of a hurling encounter introducing Brown and Walsh faded yesterday when fans inth e "know" learned of Chance's plan to pit the threefingered phenom against the white shins Sunday in the second fracas on the west side. On both sides of Chicago there's a crying demand among the rooters for a peek at Brown and Walsh in action on the same fields. Both managers are eager to accommodate the folks who make baseball what it is and to a squirrel on the ground it now seems almost certain the pair will go to It Sunday.

IS A SENSATION

Harvard Quarter Back in

Great Form.

Cambridge. Mass., Oct. 7. Wiggles-

worth, the little quarter back of the

2912 foot ball team, was the sensation

of yesterday's practice of the Harvard sctuad. Replacing O'Flaherty after the varsity had scored once against the second eleven in the scrimmage, he drove the first team for three more touchdowns In quick succession, even after the substitutes had replaced sev

eral of the regulars. One of tj ,e touch

downs he scored himself by running back a punt from the middle of the

field, going through the whole second

team. The three injured back field

men, Corbett. P. Smith and Frothing

ham, were on the field again today

and were given light work. Their In

juries are not bad, and they will be

able to play Saturday against Williams

Indiana Practices Until Aft

er Dark. Bloomington, Ind.. Oct. 7. With

only one more day in which to prac

tice before taking his team to Chi

cago to meet Stagg's eleven, Coach Sheldon gave his men the hardest

workout this afternoon and tonight

that they have ever had. The field was fitted with electric lights and be

ginning early the work was continued

until after it had become? dark.

That Se.ldon believes his men can win from the maroons is now the talk

around the athletic field. From his

mass of trick plays he thinks he ought

to put a touchdown or two across, and

he depends o nAnd Gill's toe for other scores. Gill is touted to be one of the best drop kickers in the country. Berndt, who has been suffering with a broke ntoe, will be able to play Saturday and there Is no othej man laid up. Gill, who has been oft duty with a "charley horse," was in the practice strong today and showed no weakness. Every other man on the varsity is in first-class condition.

Princeton. N. J., Oct. 7. The Villa Nova eleven made the Tigers work yesterday afternoon but were trimmed by the score of 12 to 0. The play for the first few minutes was In Princeton territory. This the Villa Nova lads were able to do by a forward pass and by recovering a short punt. Then fol

lowed penalties, and Captain Siegling was ordered out of the game for al

leged rough play. The two teams sawed back and forth then until McCrohan tore off a long run through a broken field for a touchdown. The first half ended soon afterward. In the second half the Tigers had things pretty much their own way. Twice they carried the ball to the Villa Nova goal post only to lose it. Cunningham scored twice by drop kick?. Just after the last score the Pennsylvania boys blocked a kick under the Tiger goal, but Christie recovered. This was the only time the Tigers' goal was in real danger. While the varsity was eating up Villa Nova the youngsters were trimming Lawrenceville to the tune of 6 to 0.

Keggy Richter, the young star who has been pitching himself into local fame the last few weeks on the local

semi-pro circuit, joined the white sox

yesterday afternoon when President

Charles A. Comiskey of the local Amer

lean league ball club signed him to a

contract. Reggy attached his signa

ture to a Louisville contract a couple of weeks ago, but as the youngster Is

only 19 years of age the contract prov

ed void. 'Commy" had Reggy's father sign with him yesterday and the contract will determine the youngster's

baseball future.

Wisconsin Star Quarter Is

Out of Game.

Madison. Wis.. Oct. 7. Various stor

ies why "Kreckie" Mbll, Wisconsin's star quarter back, is not out in uniform, have been circulated during the last few days but Coaches Barry and Moll today made known the truth. The other day Moll was sent to the gymnasium early. There was no one there to rub him down and he contracted a severe cold and rheumatism settled In his right leg. He has lost five pounds in weight and Coach Barry fears that he may be out of the game for some time. Today's workout consisted of preliminary work and signal practice. Anderson will take Moll's place at quarter back in the early season games.

RIDICULES STORY.

Bartelme Riddles Report of

Football Combine.

Ann Arbor. Mich., Oct. 7. "Yes, 1

have read the reported alliance, but it

is too ridiculous and remote to war

rant serious discussion," was the way

in which Director of Athletics Philip

G. Bartelme surned up the story re

gardlng the possibility of an alliance composed of Michigan, Minnesota. Wisconsin, Illinois, Pennsylvania, Syra

cuse and Cornell, formed for the pur

pose of bucking Chicago.

"Has the matter been considered by you or by the board of control of athletics?" he was asked. "Never," was his emphatic reply. "I am quoted as saying the plans have been laid before me, but this Is absolutely untrue, for I have never said anything of the kind. I have heard nothing from the other Institutions mentioned, nor have we broached the subject to any of them." Trainer Fltzpatrlck and Yost were emphatic In denying the rumor. On the face of things any such combination is out of the question. Illinois, Minnesota and Wisconsin are in no position to suffer athletic suicide by cutting off Chicago, and that is what it would amount to for them. Urbana, 111., Oct. 7. Talk of a new athletic combination Is regarded as a joke at Illinois. Director George Huff only laughed when questioned. It is regarded as idle to suppose that the Illlnl would join a coalition against their natural rivals, the maroons.

Lpndon, Oct. 7. James J. Jeffries wil sail for America Saturday on the

steamship Lusltanla. He arrived here

today and declared he was greatly Improved by his trip through Europe. Jeffries was given a royal reception ty the sporting public of London. He was escorted from the station to his hotel by a large delegation and was entertained by the followers of boxing throughout the day.

Disposes of the Sioux City

Team. Sioux City. Towa, Oct. 7. William "Duckey" Holmes, after a most successful earner as player and manager, has sold out his interests in the Sioux City Western league baseball team and will retire from the national game to become a ranchman In South Dakota. Holmes admits tlat during four years in the Western league he has made nearly $40,000. He has a big ranch in Dakota comprising about 1,200 acres, which he is stocking with cattle, and he declares he is through with baseball for the present. Holmes' stock in the local franchise was bought by Fred L Hutchins, manager of the Curtis Sash and Door company, who has been slightly interested In the club for several seasons. "Babe" Townc, catcher; Lew Drill, and George Andruss are suggested as possible successor to Holmes as man

ager.

A garment must be cut to the figure not pressed and drawn from it original shape to fit the figure. A tailor-made suit will last twice as long, look far superior and hold Its shape until the last.
