will mean six games in half as many afternoons. All of which is some strenuous life for subway title contenders. The intermittent deluge of yesterday was received In indifference. It was a case of "I don't care" as far as the
rival teams and the disgruntled fans were concerned. Neither the Sox nor Browns have anything to fight for, and the "bugs" are not particularly Interested in such a rivalry at least not when they have to pay money to witness the listless scrap. Young and Olmstead were elected to oppose the Browns before the fain vetoed Manager Duffy's selection for
the ensuing year.

In all probability a majority of the regular Brownies will have their vacation extended today even If clement weather prevails, for Jack O'Connor is planning to bench the veterans and give the recruits an opportunity to show their ability. As a result, it looks as If the Sox would be asked to try out the curves of the Texas rang-ers today, as Pitchers Malley and Mitchell are en route from Houston and will be sent to the

tallies. Schulte would have cwt In on the long distance deal but for a startling feat of spectacular work by Paskert, which robbed the home run swatter of at least a three bagger In the seoond inning and compelled Mm to be content with making a two bagger out of an ordinary single. Paskert's catch was as unexpected as it was brilliant. The ball which Schulte smashed sailed on a line for the barrier in front of the bleachers in deep right . center. There seemed

Secrets of Good Advertising
Concentration All Important
An eight-inch advertisement in one newspaper will bring much bigger results than a two-inch advertisement in four newspapers. Don t skip around from one newspaper to another. Success in advertising conies from hammering away at the same crowd. Pick out the newspaper which has the kind of readers you want for customers, and then stick. If you want to make an advertisement hit all you need to do is to talk to the reader of the newspaper as you talk across the counter the counter to a customer. Simply talk. That's all. Be sincere about it. Let your words ring true. The people will listen. They like it. The fact that your advertisement appears continuously in a reputable newspaper stimulates public confidence. Your shop advances step by step in the estimation of thousands of people who may be months in getting around to make their first purchase. Originality may be good, but an advertisement that sells goods, even if copied, is better.

season that they did not get enthusiastic over another chanoe to hold the team together and the Labor day contest ended things for the Johnnies.

Larry L&jole was a big favorite In Cincinnati when he played In the National league, and will be one of the attractions during the series.

BRITISH PUG A
HUMORIST
Bombardier Wells, England's "hope
of the 'white race," , has outlined his
plan of battle when' 'he faces Johnson.
He says: "In my opinion the men who have fought Johnson haye made the mistake of not trying to 'draw him more in not forcing him to lead and give them an opening. To beat a man like Johnson you must hit him hard and often, and the only chance of hitting a man with such a defense Is to compel him to lead and give you an opening. If I had to flght the champion I should keep on feint
ing till he was compelled to lead. Then there would be my chance." A perusal of the Briton's opinion forces the belief that he is not a pugilist, but a vaudeville humorist. Wells should come to Uiis side at once, take to the vaudeville .circuit and convulse the audiences by telling them of his
plans to beat Johnson.

If there is any hitch in. the proposed ten round title match between Ad Wolgast, the lightweight champion, and Packey McFarland, globe trotter and stockyard's pet, it will be furnished by the Milwaukee promoters. At least, this is the Intimation of Tom Jones, manager of the Michigan bear cat, who was at the Morrison hotel yesterday, as per arrangement, to meet McFarland's representative and the promoters and to post a $1,000 forfeit as his share of the cement to bind the match. The Cream City Impresario was not present, wiring that the difficulty in securing a hall large enough to accommodate the crowd had delayed his trip to Chicago, but Pat Kinneally, Mc
Farland s European chaperon, was on
the job to dicker for his protege. Kin
neally had $1,000 In real wampum with him as a forfeit and was satisfied with
Jones' terms, 133 pounds at 5 o'clock

When It was proposed to show the pictures of the Johnson-Jeffries fight here this weefe, some of the knockers Immediately got busy and succeeded in
