BASEBALL SUPPLANTS 2 BEANS AS BIB DISH OF BOSTON ROOTERS

BY FRANK G. MENKE. BOSTON, ' Oct. 11. Baseball supplanted beans as the native dish here today. The natives served it up to the visitors and among themselves on the streets, over the counters, on the cars and everywhere else. It wasn't "good morning" or "howde do." The salutation had changed. It was "goin' to the game?" or "-well, whadda ya' think of the Sox now, hey?" . The Hub city was in the throes of a baseball frenzy on this sunshiny, crisp autumn day, and it talked,, acted and thought nothing but baseball. Boston has taken the series so seriously that the game this afternoon threatened to ' stop the wheels of industry in many offices, shops and factories. All records for a single game attendance were due for smashing at the combat. The new Braves' park, where the series will be staged, seats 43,400 and standing room space for nearly 3,000 more was placed on sale during the morning. rumn:rni i ml utiHiiT Jt riuJrn """"' . CARRIGAN'S DEFIANCE. "I'm a devil In my own home town," chanted William Carrigan early today as he promised a group of admires to show the Phillies who's who and why In the baseball in the third game. "We got our stride in the other town Saturday," he continued, "and we intend to keep it. The Red Sox can play ball, and I have not the slightest doubt of them winning this series." The most disappointed man in the Red Sox team today was Foster, the

ONCE KAISER'S FAVORITE MOW FIGHTS AGAINST HIM

LONDON, Oct. 11. General Sir Archibald Hunter, second in command of the British troops at Gallipoli; was a favorite of the German Emperor before the war, having once saved his majesty when a horse attached to a carriage in which he was driving in Scotland became unmanageable. The Emperor paid the Scotch soldier particular attention and gave him a standing invitation to visit Berlin. The Kaiser must have heard with chagrin that, the recent successes in the Anafarta region were due largely to Hunter's direction. Hunter first made his name in Egypt In Wolseley's Nile expedition, Hunter captured" one " of the most truculent Dervish chiefs with his own hands and carried him off in a gunboat in the very teeth of the tr'jesmen. His great work was the perfecting of the Egyptian army. If the Soudan was reconquered primarily as a result of Kitchener's masterful methods and genius for organization. Hunter was the fighting leader who played . the most prominent part in the battles by which the power of the Khalifa was broken. He earned the title of "the Sirdar's General," and at the age of forty found himself a major-general. 14 Years Experience. Hunter had fourteen years of the Desert and the Nile Valley, and his bravery in all the fighting was a byword with the black troops whose adored leader he was. When the illfated gunboat El Teb turned turtle in the fifth cataract, Hunter had a narrow escape, being struck in the side by the bridge rail as he leaped overboard. While he . rested news was brought him that the boat which had drifted thirty miles down, stream was aground on an island, and that a "tap ping was heard from within her. Immediately he leapt. into his saddle and made off for the wreck with a party of workers at top speed. ':. ,r And through twelve hours of cutting-, out work he sat on the keel, hammering to encourage '.two firemen improsoned below, Vio-were finally rescued. Lord Kitchei has much to thank General -Hunter ' for, But for the, tatter's prompt warning on one occasion Kitchener might never have lived to i see the consummation of his work. It happened like this. K. of K. and his staff were inside the enclosure of the Iron Mosque at Omdurman about sunset when a shell burst above the heads Of the party. They thought it came from Khalifa's house, which was beside the Mosque, that he was at home, and that the British has captured him. Rut r second shell came, and a third, j

mouth because he could not go into the box against Alexander again today, the star slabartist of the Phillies. BETTING ODDS SHIFT. Even decorous Boston had to submit to the speculators and pay from $35 to $50 for world series tickets.. . The Hub city, unlike Philadelphia, has an ordinance against "specs" similar to the New York law, but it did no good. "Specs" hawked their wares around all the principal hotels and even in the sqft spoken 'back bay v section. In down-town districts they did a thriving business. The betting odds shifted during the morning, due to the amazing confidence the Boston folks had in the- ability of their team to beat Alexander. When the Philadelphia contingent arrived here last night, they offered 6 to 5 that the Phillies would win today's .game. .They withdrew these odds when a few hundred, bales of Boston currency was dumped before thent and "ardan'd" nobn . thfe gteneral betting was 5 to 4 that the Red Sox would win the game. . And those . Bostonians, did thefr plunging in the face of the fact that "Dutch" Leonard, a southpaw, whose type always has been easy for the Phillies to beat, was slated to be on the firing line for Carrigan's army. The athletes from Bill Penn's state, however, did not seem worried over the fact that the rotters for the enecy were offering 5 to 4 against their chances of winning the game and 6 to 5 against them in the series. Confidence was the keynote in the Phillie chorus today. and then a great number more and in dashed Hunter, who had ridden through the enemy to r"t to his chief. "Those are our own shells, sir!" he cried. "We can't stay here, for we cannot stop them;" .u;-s- &:' U "Well, gentlemen," said Kitchener, "it would be a pity to be killed when the day's won; we, had best move away." And away they moved, just in time, while the hail of shell rained down faster and more furiously still. During the Boer War, Hunter was shut up in Ladysmith with White, but if his view had been adopted before the siege the whole course of the campaign in Natal might have been altered, greatly, greatly to the benefit of Britain. TWO MEN ARE HANGED CLARKSDALE, Miss., Oct. 11. A negro and a chinaman were taken from the jail here early today and both were lynched by a' mob of masked men. The two were taken as ' suspctse in connection with the murder here yesterday of A. H.. Cage, a local bank cashier, who surprised a burglar in his house, and was killed in a revolver fight with him. TORBECK IS FINED On a plea of guilty, Joseph Torbeck. proprietor of the Murray pool room, was fined $5 and cost by Special Judge Comstock this morning for allowing minors to play pool, Torbeck was indicted by the grand jury.

Vecca ordered King, who was "pretending" like he was drunk, to leave the restaurant. King did not. do : so. Vecca undertook to put King out and the fight was on. The two young- men battled up, North F street -to Twelfth street, -, where Officer Pundy ,;. topk charge of them. . Vecca, his waitress, Maggie Preston, and a customer testified that King became so intolerable that Vecca decided to put him out of the place. Vernon Lamb, 15, who was in the restaurant, said when King entered Vecca refused to shake hands with him. King then asked Vecca, the boy stated, if he was mad because he had told Miss Preston that he had seen Vecca with another woman. He said the two men got to scuffling and that Vecca tried to shove King's head into a stove in vi oa A that VAro nan nm o. ; v.tm fr- ls WAiise in
