Boston will undoubtedly cut enough ice at St. Louis to permit the Tlgea to remain above the Browns, provided the champs can win even semFocca slonally. Washington Is sore enough to play to the limit at Cleveland and they have been known to run out a straight string there. Philadelphia and Washington would not be hard lor the Tiges, provided they can trans form themselves into real baseball beasts of the Jungle once more. IT WILL TAKE THREE DEFEATS FOR CLEVELAND AND AS MANY VICTORIES BY DETROIT TO GIVE THE TIGES A CHANCE TO BREATHE THE RARTFIBP ATMOS PHERE OF THE MOUNTAIN PEAK AGAIN. AND THIS LEAVES THE SOX STILL TO RECKON WITH. The AthleUca are here with a load of new material. Baker, a Tri-State inflelder, is playing in Jimmie Collins' place and Barr, another recruit Is at second. Coombs has been playing out field and pitching, and the catching is ail being done by young Lapp, though Dr. Powers Is with the team Schreck has been sold to Chicago to help fill the vacancy caused by the Injury to Billy Sullivan —a loss by the way, which la likely to cost the Sox dearly.

There Is every reason to believe that Greer will tak-* to professional cokch- Ing. Mr. Schuaab. of the Western row ing club of Bt. I»uis has had hts eye on Oreer for some time. Greer can have the place, the matter of money alone remaining to be settled upon. With champion Oreer out of the w-ay, the prospei t of seeing C S. Titus, the ex-champion, return to active rowing Is very good. Titus was In attendance at the laat national regatta, and left for home convinced that he Is the mas ter of the whole bunch, with the ex ception of Greer, and for that reason his closest friends believe he will re turn just to show what he Is capable of doing.

Men who are good judges of condi tion who have watched George Towns of Australia training for his race with Ernest Harry for the British champion ship and the Sportsman cup, are of th« opinion that he Is not so good as when seen In England a few years ago.

Sept. 24.—Stanley Ketchell is back In ’Frisco declaring that carelessness lost him the title. "I was strutting about Papke In this go and the first thing I knew he hit uw» right hander between the eyes that put me out of the going for good. One eye dosed up tight then and there and I wa,s dazed all through. In Milwaukee he did nothing but Jab me with n loft and try to cross with the right, but he wasn’t within a block of my Jaw at any time. Punch? Why, say, after I was down five times in the first It took him eleven rounds more to finish me. and, at that,\ they threw up the sponge. "Ho cannot punch a bit.

TFAH IT HIS DISPOSAL HE SATS The Philadelphia Athletics with Con nie Mack at the head of tho proces sion, marched Into Detroit Thursday morning to play the opposition to the Champions during the following three afternoons. The hotel roater of the Mackites Includes the following list of players who are making their first trip around the American league cir cuit; Barr, second baseman, purchaa ed from the Greenville, South Car olina. club. Baker, third baseman, purchas ed from the Reading club of the Tri-State league. Flater. right-handed pitcher, purchased from the Williamsport club of the Tri-State. catcher, purohased from the Syracuse club of the New York State league. Egan, left fielder, drafted from Utica. New York State league. Kellogg, right-handed pitcher, formerly with Scranton, New York Stale league champions. Strunk, uotfielder, from the Shamokln club of the Atlantic out law league, manager by Lave Cross. Manush, third b&aeman, pur chased from the Columbus. Miss., club of the Cotton States league. Os this bunch, Egan, Kellogg and Strunk Joined the team here, the re mainder having been with the club on Its swing through the west. Manager Mack desires to correct the impression that he is experiment ing with a sole view to strengthening his lineup for next season and Insists that he Is putting In the field the very strongest team he has at hia disposal. *'l am not shelving regulars la a single position where the men are in condition to play good ball," said he at the Oriental Thursday morning. "Hartsel ha* played faithful ball for me for seven years and has been sick for the past two months. Dygert Is out of form and Bender was left be hind because he strained his arm and LARNEfI-HfICKETT TO SHUT HOME BOSTON. Sept. 24.—While four men represented this country In the prelim inary test which put the British team out of the contest for the Davis In ternational lawn Tennis Cup, only two will go to Australia for the Aual competition. William A. Lamed and Harold H. Hackett are unable to un dertake the 11.000-mile trip for busi ness and professional reasons. This leaves only Fred B. Alexander and Beals C. Wright to represent the United States against the Australian players in both singles and Roubles. After a few days’ rest they will leave for Vancouver. B. C., from where they will sail for Melbourne Oct. 9. The International competition will not begin at Melbourne until Nov. 27. Remember Yoet’s Old Friend.

Time Table Changed—Grand Trunk Railway System. Effective Sunday, Sept. 27, Steam boat Express Trains leaving Detroit 5:05 p. m. and Eastbound Grand Hav en 5:45 a. m. will be discontinued. Other trains remain practically the same. OUR Puritan forefathers appreciated the health-giving, strength-making, qualities of good beer.

I haw been further handicapped by recent Injuries to Davla, Oldring and Murphy, though all arer ecoverlng now and you will probably see them in the game here. Some of the young fellows ar* doing finely. Baker haa done wonder fully well at third base, although suf fering from a badly cut leg. Lapp lost two games at Chicago by passed balls, but 1 regard him as a good catcher. Barr looks like a real ball player." The release of Catcher Schreck to Chicago develops a peculiar condition. Illustrative of the management of Mr Mack. "I had asked for waivers on Schreck three times,” said he, “and no club wanted him. Four days ago I asked the fourth time and Chicago put In a claim. That was all there was to It.” Reading between the line* it Is obvious that Mr. Mack cut loose his hard-hitting If erratic backstop Just at a time when another club was In such straits that It would pay the money for his release. In all probability the waiver price was something moro than Mr. Mack could have secured, had he been forced to unload Schreck on some minor-league club. hnYres “SHAKTEM UP" Hughie Jennings grinned when h« received a letter from Ned Hanlon the most famous baseball strategist of his time, and Hughies’ old manager at Baltimore. Hanlon Is pulling for Jennings and Detroit, where he himself played his flr*t ball. The wording of the tele gram wasn't given out by the Detroit executive. "Ned thinks I ought to shake ’em up,” said he. “Well, I guess we'll do It today.” Jennings did not decide on hls final batting order until the umpire called the teams to the field in the after noon. It was generally believed, how ever, that Bush would be pushed up to the top of the list and Schaefer sent back to third base. BIDDLE-WRIEN IN PRIVATE MILL PHILADELPHIA, Sept. 24.—A. J. Drexel-Biddle, society man, poet and athlete, fought "Philadelphia Jack'- O'Brien, claimant of the middleweight title, six fast rounds to a draw yester day afternoon. The bout was decided in a private Wo*t Walnut-st. gymnas ium. At the end of tho six rounds both men were badly battered up and wero ready to drop from sheer exhaustion. The gladiators were eager to continue, but friends of the contestants Inter fered and they decided to settle their grudge in the near future. The fight was a return match that Biddle has been anxiously seeking since last winter when he met defeat at the hands of the middleweight pug ilist at the Marion Cricket club. In a six-round go. The clubman tm« been training faithfully to even up the old score, and both men were In the best physical condition when they entered the ring. WjsJp* E rSsaBW JBjSSTwSSqIi

FIRES 111 MICHIH 4,000 ACRES OF STATE REBERVE BURNED—VILLAGE OF CRUMP DOOMED—WOMAN MAY BE IN CINERATED. ANN ARBOR. Mich., Sept. 24—Ac cording to Prof. Filbert Roth, state forester, who has Just returned from a portion of the burned districts in northern Michigan, the loss from for est fires in the state amounts to $40.- 000,000. Between 3,000 and 4,000 acres of the Michigan forest reserve have been wiped out. Prof. Roth adds that one-third of Roscommon county is burned over, while Crawford, Kal kaska, Missaukee and Gladwin coun ties also are among those most com pletely sarept by the flames. BTANDISH, Mich.. Sept. 24.—Forest fires surround Crump, a little village a few miles southwest of here. Two houses and a school house have al ready burned and one woman. Mrs. J. Bartley, Is supposed to have burned to death as she had not been found up to a late hour Wednesday night A call for help was sent to Linwood and Pin conning, on the Michigan Cen tral south of here, and 20 men were sent to Crump at once to fight the tires. E. Etsold and 8. Willard arrived In Crump Wednesday night with their families, from their farms, two miles north of there, having abandoned their homes, with such household goods as they could hastily pick up. Mike Mlllson, living three-quarters of a mile west, came in also with his family and a few chairs out of all his household possessions. All their houses and other buildings have been burned. The recruits sent out from Llnwood and Pinconning are working like Tro jans, aiding the people of Crump, who are exhausted and practically help less. It looks as though the village is doomed. Hardships In the Thumb. SAGINAW, Mich., Sept 24.—The Saginaw valley and Thumb district, which Includes 15 important counties, is suffering the worst drought known in 20 years. It is estimated to have cost the farmers of this section sev eral hundred thousand dollars already, and every day of the drought adds thousands of dollars to the bill. In many localities wells and creeks have gone dry and farmers are compelled to haul water miles for domestic use and for stock. Smoke Causes Illness. TURNER. Mich.. Sept. 24.—Hun dreds of cases of illness are reported in Arenac county as a result of the forest fires which have prevailed hero for six weeks. There has not been one clear day In all that time. Cattle are almost famished owing to the lack of pasture and dozens of horses and cows havo been killed by falling trees in the burning woods. Bear and deer are constantly com ing out of the woods, fleeing from the flames with their hair burned and singed In spots and many deer have been illegally killed. The animals are so hungry that they come to the clear ings in search of food.

THE STAGE

"The Cherry Blossoms" will bloom in the Avenue theater next week and endeavor to keep up the reputation Dave Marion’s show has been making this week. "The Blossoms" have a new musical skit to open the pro gram, "The Girl I Met at Sherry's," which is reminiscent of "Mary’s Lamb," "Vivian’s Papas, and "The Olrl from Maxim’s." The closing bur lesque is "Look Out Below," in which Simon Slade, of "Ten Nights In a Bar room" fame appears. In the company are the dashing soubrettes Lydia Carlisle and LUllan Perry, John H. Perry, the Irish comedian; Loro Payne, and Qranvlljg. Mack and Monk. The management of the Lafayette theater closed the hogse Tuesday night because the production of "Dolly Varden," being presented by the Man hattan Opera company, failed to at* tract enough patrons to pay the bills.

J PRIMARY RECOUNT HELD UP BY THE SUPREME COURT BOARD OF STATE CANVASSERS TO RESUME NEXT MONDAY MORN ING-WRITS FROM BRADLEY AND WARNER. LANSING. Mich., Sept 24.—Be cause of writs from both Dr, J. B. Bradley and Gov. Fred M. Warner, the board of Btate canvassers has ad journed the primary ballot recount till Monday next, at 9 a. m. The election officials from Huron and Lapeer counties have been allow ed to leave their boxes and keys with the secretary of state, getting receipts from them. Attorneys for Dr. Brad ley filed their application for a writ late Wednesday afternoon. It alleges that frauds have been committed at the recent primary election, and the state board of canvassers have refus ed to admit testimony to show such frauds. A writ Is asked to cause the board so vacate that order and admit testimony. Briefs accompanied the petition and answers will be filed by Gov. Warner's attorneys Thursday. If the court does not decide to hand down an opinion without oral argu ment, such arguments will be made Saturday. The court has, however, given assurances that they will ren der a decision before Saturday night. Attorneys for the governor Wednes day afternoon filed the petition for the writ of mandamus and for a writ of prohibition. In the petition for a mandamus the canvassing board in requested not to enter Into testimony In the recount and not to strike any names from the pqll Hats. In asking for a writ of prohibition the state’s executive asks that the board be prohibited from throwing out names. Loss Is Warner’s. The board began the actual recount Wednesday morning. The first ballot box opened was one from Oliver town ship, Huron county. The board completed the recount of Oliver township, Huron county, Just before noon. The vote originally stood Warner 106. Bradley 60 and Earle 4. It was found there were 11 voters who had been enrolled Aug. 31, I Dem ocratic, 1 no party man and 1 ProhlbL tlonist. It was decided to draw out 14 ballots, and the count then stood Warner 93, Bradley 47 and Earle 4. The Modesty of Women Naturally makes them shrink from tha Indelicate questions, the obnoxious ex aminations, and unpleasant local treat ments, which some physicians consider essential in the treatment of diseases of women. Yet, If help can be had, It Is better to submit to this ordeal than let the disease grow and spread.

Shall the People Rule LetLawtoi Damans Do n Little Sweeping For Yon At Lansing Ho Will Do Elected Governor Over Warner If %he People Awake to State laauaa ee Bryan Hae Awakened Thom to V National laouos. cause which the Democratic nom inee for the presidency represents and to the worth of a man. who, though twice defeated for his principles, stands vindicated today in those principles for their having been applied with effect by a Re publican president and with the approval of the people. This crowd assembled as crowds are assembling every day wherever he may be, to see and hear the man who, a dozen years ago* foresaw the present-day helplessness of the common people be- the power of great and corrupt wealth. This crowd assembled to sec and hear the man who predicted in ißg6 that questionable methods of government in that day were hut piling up great fortunes of gold whose jingle in the pockets of j lawmakers would eventually drown out the voice of the peo ple* and whose prediction was verified on the very day he was in -Detroit by columns in the newspapers dealing with the exposure of the senior senator from Ohio as the Republican hireling of the Standard Oil Cos. They assembled to see and hear the man of principle who on I that day* in communication with the president of the United States, promised to dismiss forthwith from connection wih his campaign, a 1 member of his own party likewise charged, on presentation of proof which President Roosevelt was not fair enough to ask for before himself accepting the charge against this Democrat as true* and Which he has not yet proven. A man of principle is a drawing card in these days, for principle ‘has come to be recognised and rewarded by a thinking people. A courageous man has come to be recognised, for s thinking [people have come to s realisation of the fact that courage is de mended for their emancipation in their trust-ridden plight. A sincere man has come to be recognised and to appeal to the voters of this country. That is why Bryan gets the crowds and why he will continue jto get them so long as there is a fight here to be waged in the inter est of the few as against the many. Hr. Bryan's Detroit visit of Tuesday win long be remembered |in local political history as marking the awakening of a slumbering party in Michigan if the effect it will doubtless have upon the Democracy of Detroit can be extended over the state. And there is a slumbering Republicanism in this state, too, for whom another man stood in this meeting* and his name is Lawton T. Hemans.

Conduct Is nine-tenths of a good life. UNCLE SAM IN OKLAHOMA Reported by Dr. Hyndman Norvel Mich (Imported by Dr. Hynd man. Norvell, Mich.) Uncle Sam —The people do not rule. I want to Know why? Malefactor* In high places are keeping me busy theae day*. I have been Informed of anew banking law. In the new state of Okla homa, which gives depositors a i anty against loss. So lam here on the 'spot, to Investigate Its operation. Sec retary Taft, who aspires to be president of my rvatlon, says of this law: 'The i fundamental objection to the proposed I plan to guaranty deposits In national banks. Is that It puts a premium upon reckless banking, and la an Inducement to reckless banking." I have therefore asked for an Interview with a promi nent and capable banker here, and am waiting for him. (Enter banker.) Uncle Sum —I have been expecting you. Are you a banker In this state. Hanker —I am. Uncle Sam—Before authorising >ou to receive deposits, what did your state demand of you, which Is not required *W \o JißMtt with th. state a trifling percentage on Ihe ap proximate deposits In my bank. This I had to do before I could take one dol lar on deposit. Uncle Sam —What do bankers get In return for this small tax? Banker— They are well paid by the use of largely Increased deposit*. They get perfect safety from any runs on their banks. And In great degree pan ics are obviated. _ ■UncTe FttTTT—ttxrw xum that —affect —a —That Is easy. The people always put their money where they think It safest. They know the guar anteed hank Is that place. It all goes there promptly. None Is ever With drawn through tear tor it* safety. Withdrawal of one dollar per Individ ual in this country n 2 ’*hsf *0.000,000. Five dollars mentis $400,000,000, etc., which stays right In circulation. In stead of being hidden In odd corners. Uncle Pam —Oh! I see. You compel the banker to pay a small fee for a valuable privilege, which I* really a favor to him. and at the same t me se cure the depositor. How can this put “a premium upon reckless banking? Banker—lt does exactly the reverse. The banker who has paid the state for a valuable concession want* the worth of his money. The state Is on record to be more vigilant. It* duties and respon sibilities to the people are Increased. The honest banker Is anxious to protect the guaranty fund and can and will give the state valuable Information ob tained from Inside sources In ways they know. The state also Is alert and promptly closes the reckless bank. Uncle Pam —What does the reckless banker gain by this law? Banker—He loses; by being more closely watched by the state and other bankers; and when his hank is closed, the depositors, and not he, are the gainers. Uncle Sam—That seems to be mathe matically correct. How do other bank ers feel about this guaranty law? Banker—Just as I do. They are all after It. Including even national banks, which are not under this law. Four of them have already taken charters under this state and Id more have made application for the same. Asa further showing. notwithstanding Secretary Taft’s emphatic disapproval of this law, the Republicans of Kansas have de clared strongly In Its favor. They can not help themselves, because deposits go to the safest place known. Okla homa has It. and has shown the people where and how to find It. and national banks even now are anxious to get in out of the cold, as they formerly were to keep the people out of It. Uncle Pam —What do you think of a postal savings system Instead of this guaranty system? Banker —National bank* have always controlled such legislation, and surely would bitterly oppose It. They know that depositors would soon use the safe government plan and their banks would quickly be out of the savings de posit business entirely. They may per mit It to be talked about now. before election, simply to delude, well know ing that they can govern all such legis lation. Young Oklahoma has done the trick Her people are reaping the benefits now. They will never submit to any shallow subterfuge to beat them out of It. Mound, safe banking, good for the honest banker, supremely good for the people, and only bad for the reckless banker. Other states In self preservation must follow suit. Undo Mam —Have you had any hank failures since this law has been In force? Banker —Yes; two. Haskell Should Clear His Own Skirts Thus far Mr. Haskell’s defense of himself is by no means conclusive. He has ignored entirely the Prairie Oil and Gas company charge and has at tempted to shift the responsibility In the Monnett case upon another Has kell, who indignantly denies that he ever knew anything about the affair, says the New York World. Mr. Hearst’s charges may be an “Infamous slander.” as Gov. Haskell says; for the sake of the Democratic party the World trusts that they are. But the fact cannot be blinked that Mr. Hearst has already proved his case against Senator Foraker and Rep. Thursday, September 24, 1908 Unde Sam—With what result? Bunker—The state promptly took possession of the banks and their as sets and within one hour all depositors were notified to call and get their money In full. Unde Mam—How much of the guar anty fund has been used? Banker—Virtually none. The assets of the banks about reimbursed the amounts taken from the fund. Unde Mam—To Illustrate by compari son; refer to any one bank failure in any other state. Hanger—Well, take Michigan and the failure of Banker Glaxler, who was likewise state treasurer. His failure In absence of our guaranty fund ruined a host of deserving people who had their money in his bank. Uncle Sam—Did the state of Michi gan have uny money on deposit In Gla xler’s bank? Banker—Yes, sir. A large amount. Uncle Mam—Did the state authorities recover thut money? Banker—They did. They took good care of that. Thev demanded and were fumtshed bond* as security. They, for themselves, would not trust a hank to which they hud given a license to taka deposits from the unprotected cltlxena of the stale. That is exactly as it la In every state excepting Oklahoma. Uncle Mam—l thank you for having made this matter very 'clear to me. Does your hank now have any deposi tors who formerly had money in either of those defunct hanks? rushed their money Into our state banks, as soon as they were paid out of the guaranty fund. Uncle Mam—Will you please send on* such depositor In here? (Exit banker; enter depositor.) Uncle Mam—Are you a citizen ot Oklahoma? Depositor—l am. Uncle Mam—Did you have any money on deposit In either of the banks whlctk recently failed in your state? Depositor—l had every dollar of mp money In one. Unele Sam—What percentage did yotg recover? Depositor—Every cent in full. Uncle Sam—How long after the fail ure before you got your money? Depositor—l received notice the same day the state took possession to call and get m.v money. But as I was busy, and had r.o fear as to Its safety, I did not go after It for several days. Uncle Mam—When you got your money what did you do with it? Depositor—l put it all Immediately Into an Oklahoma state hamk. Uncle Mam—Did you deposit all your money in banks before this guaranty law? Depositor—Oh! no. I feared to lose It and had no meana of knowing what bank I could trust. Uncle Sam—That will do. (Exit depositor.) Oklahoma, my youngest "tar, I am Justly proud of you. Out of your kindergarten you very properly cry, shame! shame! upon all your elder sla ter states who have for so long per mitted a few men to do the thinking for all and to so fix things that they could grant a franchise to banks which they would not trust without being se cured and yet authorised auch banka to take the savings of the people on deposit without any guaranty of safety. "A premium upon reckless hanking’* Indeed. National bankers had better now proceed to Washington and Imltata Oklahoma. Which?

Sibley, and this makes it all the more necessary for Mr. Haskell to clear his own skirts at once. What the governor needs and what the Democratic national committee must Insist on is no merely technical vindication, but a moral vindication. Nothing less than that could justify Mr. Haskell’s retention as treasurer of the committee. The Democratic party cannot afford to have the slightest suspicion' of Standard Oil sfllllatlons attach to Uft national organization. It can tolerate nothing that even remotely resembles Forakefism.
