were tilled and the gates were closed.
The reserved stands were not com
pletely filled until game time. Behind
the Bostons' bench the "Royal Root
ers" from Boston gathered in force
and lent vociferous encouragement to
the Boston players, battling before a
crowd. The two teams went about
their batting and fielding practice
with zest and a degree of speed and
artisanship that promised a smart and
grimly fought contest.
Manager Stallings had his reversible
outfield working out at bat so he could
shift in case a left hand pitcher was
sent In by the Athletics. Mann was
ready to replace Moran In right and
Cathers to take Connolly's place In
left should Plank pitch.
Plank and Sohang.
Plank and Schang were announced
as the batteries for the Athletics.
James and Gowdy were announced as
the battery 'or Boston.
. Umpire Hildebrand gave the deci
sions behind the plate while Byron
gave the decisions on the bases.
Umpire Klem went to left filed line.
Catcher Hank Gowdy was presented
with a traveling bag and a bunch of
flowers by a young lady before the
game began. All this took place be
fore the Boston bench.
The crowd was good natured and
chered the visitors as well as the home
folks in the batting and fielding work
outs. Hundreds swarmed around the
ball park unable to gain admittance,
while the windows and roofs of the
houses back of the left and right field
walls were black with people. . A brass
hand near the Bostons bench piped Its
liveliest airs ? .-.
With one victory safetly tucked away,
the Boston Bravea met the Philadelphia
Americans In the second game of the
world's series today with added confi
dence and a grim determination to
make it two straight. The Athletics,
although defeated In the Initial struggle,
were equally determined to even the
series and they were not a whit dis
couraged. "There will be a different
tale after today's game," was the com
mon expression of the Mackmen, and
this seemed to be the feeling generally
among the supporters of the present
world's champions.
First Inning.
First half Plank's first serve was
a ball, the curve breaking wide of the
plate. The next one came over for a
strike. Mann out, Collins to Mclnnis.

made a fast play on the runner. Evers
scratched an infield single which
Plank could not get in time to make
the throw. Cather fanned. Whitted
walked. Plank making a kick when
Hildebrand called the last pitch a ball.
Schmidt flied out to Strunk. No runs,
one hit. no errors.
Second half James sent up an in
ehoot. which was too law. His second
one was a strike. Murphy walked.
James got himself in a hole on the
batter by trying to keep the ball on
the corners. . Murphy was out when
James threw wildly to Schmidt, who
quickly recovered the ball and threw
to Maranville who touched Murphy.

EXPLODING MINE WOUNDS YANKEE CONSUL

Paris. Oct. 10. In contrast to the
rapidity with which the Germans have j
conducted their campaign against Ant
werp, the tide of battle Is flowing slow
ly in certain parts of France. The en
gagement in the Woevre district, ac
cording to statements of wounded sol
diers who have been brought back from
this territory, continue to take the form
of a siege.
The German trenches in the Woevre
have been constructed in two lines.
The outermost is furnished with quick
firing guns, with outposts constantly
on guard. In the meantime the larger
detachments shelter themselves in the
second line. These trenches are large
and comparatively comfortable, and
at intervals they broaden out into sub
terranean restrooms in which tne
troops may sleep in comparative se
curity. The first line may be reached from
the second through underground pas
sages. The daily routine of the Ger
man forces in these trenches is care
fully observed. The fire of their heavy
artillery is determined through the
study of maps and aerial reconnois
sances and is directed mostly to the ra
vines and woods where the enemy is
supposed to be.
The allies have just installed a sys
tem of drainage in their trenches
which, up to the present time, has
been very successful. Drainage is a
most necessary precaution, as many
of the troops are suffering from in
flammatory rheumatism.

Judge Dana Says 1913 Enact
ment Is Valid.
Sustains Dawson's Demurrer in
Test Case.
Judge A. W. Dana, in the first di
vision of the Shawnee county district
court, in a decision rendered today up
held the state's "pure shoe" law. An
injunction ' had been sought by the
Fayne Shoe company, seeking to re
strain John S. Dawson and all the coun
ty, attorneys of the state from enforcing
the law. A demurrer was entered by
John S. Dawson and the decision sus
tained the demurrer.
Judge Dana held that from the stand
point of morals or public safety the law
was without foundation, but also held
that It is a proper police regulation for
the prevention of fraud.
The law required that shoes contain
ing materials other than leather must
be so marked. The act was passed by
the 1913 legislature and the suit filed to
test the validity of the statute.
OUT. Ill NIGHTIES,
Fire Chases "Co-eds" to Street in
Scant Attire Firemen Distrlcated. .
Columbia university.
Fire was discovered in an upper
story of the building In which is lo
cated the administration offices of the
university shortly after one o'clock.
The first alarm was quickly followed
by a second and by 1:30 four alarms
had been sounded.
The fire had a good start and the
heroic efforts of the firemen seemed
to make but little impression upon the
"gym," the open character of the
construction giving full play to the
flames. Efforts of the firemen were
then directed to save the adjoining
buildings, among which is the Bar
nard college dormitory from which a
legion of girls fled in fright. ,
When the "co-eds' " fright at the
danger of their home had passed,
many of them suddenly realized that
their presence in such unconventional
attire was not only distracting to the
firemen but was attracting a good deal
more attention than was the fire itself
and the rush for cover within the dor
mitory was almost as precipitate as
was their effort to escape when danger
threatened.
Two hundred and fifty-nine young
women and girls and friends of the
Young Women's Christian association
attended the banquet Friday night
which opened the association's fall
work. The banquet was served in the
lunch room department.
The young women who assisted in the
dining room under the leadership of
Mrs. W. t. xrump. were as iouoww
Florence Dice. Anna Alspach, Lillian
Valentine. Martha Valentine. Edna
Hey wood, Mrs. Nora' Adams, Mabel Ad

Katharine Cuthbert. Katharine Carr.
Nellie Kirk, Gertrude Bauer, Gertrude
Huckel, Margaret Vest. Miss Mayhew,
Nannie Beck, Lulu Greenough, Miss
Petterson and Nellie Brewer.
At the close of the banquet the com
pany adjourned to the assembly room,
where a playlet by the misisonary de
partment was staged by Miss Louise
Allison, chairman of the missionary de
partment. The title of it was. "If They
Only Knew." Miss Irene Troxell ren
dered the monologue very beautifully.
She was assisted by other members of
the misisonary department. The swim
ming contest which followed booked
much interest. It was in charge of Miss
Kate Williams, the new physical direc
tor. Not all of those who had signed
for the contests were able to be present,
but those who did were able to com

Important Announcement
I wish to advise all the old customers and friends
of Powdrpaint that they can now secure this
matchless, all purpose paint from W. B. Watson,
619 Van Buren street.
Mr. Watson has been appointed the agent for
Shawnee County and has received a brand new
stock of Powdrpaint fresh from the factory, the
old price of 75 cents per gallon still holding good.
As for quality, it is a proven fact that Powdr
paint is superior to many of the ready mixed
paints for outside and inside use and is at least
$1.00 per gallon cheaper.
For any information about Powdrpaint, inquire
of Mr. Watson. Phone 322.
