Widow of Washington Jeweler to Marry BUYING AT HOME SAVES MONEY A little conversation on the street corner which was overheard between Louie Eckstrum and Andy McNabb: Loufe: ‘“Hello, Andy. Say, where did you get that band organ you have in the rink?” Andy: ‘“Why, we bought that from Bisiar of the Bemidji Music House.” Louie: ‘“‘Say, but it’s a dandy, ain’t it. Gosh! that must have cost lots of money.” Andy: “Yes, it did and Bisiar saved us better than a hundred dol- lars on the organ. Say, but those fellows in New York and Chicago are -strong. Anybody that intends to buy a musical instrument will save money by buying of Bisiar, be- cause he don’t believe in holding up anybody or robbing the people.” Louie: “Yes, I know Bisiar is al- right and I am going to buy a player piano from him in the near future, because I know him to be honest with everyone he deals with. - I have known him for years and always known him to be right and every- body knows it. “Well, so long, Andy; will be over there and try a pair of those skates some night and skate to the music of the band organ.” .

ALLIES PREPARED " FORBIGOFFENSIVE Belated Article by Staff Correspond- ent of United Press Tells of Pre- parations at French Front, JOHN PATRICK MORAN DESERVES GREDIT Should Have Laudatory Title Given " Him for Building Up the Phillies, By George R. Holmes, (United Press Staff Correspondent) New York, Oct. 7.—When George Sm_mngs, a veteran at the managing game, steered a gang of baseball mis- fits into a National league pennant and thence into a world’s champion- ship, George Cohan dubbed him “The Miracle Man.” The name stuck. Stallings was a Miracle Man. Patrick Deserves Title. Now it’s up to somebody to invent a name for John Patrick Moran. For if ever a baseball manager deserves some sort of a laudatory title, that manager = is red-headed Patrick. Some say Grover Cleveland Alexander won a pennant for Philadelphia and Patrick. ‘He did, and he didn’t. Alexander wasn't the terrible, shoot- ing constellation he now is until Moran was pitched somewhat pre- cipitately into his managerial berth, He was a rattlin’ good pitcher, but not an immortal last year. This year he is both. ‘The records show that Alex has won 30 games. . Thirty games do not win a pennant in any- body’s league. - Had Crew of Misfits. Stallings had a crew of baseball nobadies, among .which were three good pitchers and a second baseman. Moran had. a. pitcher, a. catcher and a first baseman who could.slug the ball. The rest didn’t amount to much. . They were—like = Stallings’ heirlooms — misfits, shunted from club to club. There were three men, all stars, whom Moran could ses spoiling what little ball club he had. They were Magee, a Philly slugging fixture; Hans Lobert, credited with being the best third baseman in the league, and Charley Dooin, whom he had deposed as manager. Magee was sent to Boston, Lobert to New York and Dooin to Cincinnati in deals which were the laughing stock of the league fora while; Moran got besu- titully stung, they figured. ~For Ma- gee, he got George Whitted and Oscar Dugey, Boston irregulars; for Dooin he got Bert Neihoff and for Lobert, came Demaree, a collapsed sensation, and Milton Stock, whom McGraw had tried for three years to make a first baseman of, and failed. Hole at Short. First base was filled. Second was a huge aperture through which Mo- ran in. his dreams could see game after game slipping away. Niehott was a comparative youngster, having seen but one year in the Big Time. Moran plugged second ‘with Niehoff. At short there was a hole, left there since .the desertion of the ini- mitable Mickey Doolan. From the Pacific coast, Moran reached out and grabbed a youngster—Bancroft. To- day there isn’t a shortstop in any this Note—The United Press has just received by mail the following de- seription o't the preparations which preceded the beginning of the allied offensive, from which William Philip Simms, its staff = correspondent in Paris. Simms wrote under date of Sept. 17, intimating that the great allied offensive, which actually was launched eight days later, was about to begin. For obvious reasons his story would not have passed the cen- sor had it been cabled at that time.— Editor. By William Philip Simms. (United Press Staff Correspondent) Paris, Sept. 17.—“In the scale of human hazards the allies have 80 chances in 100 of scoring a decisive victory over the Germans when the general offensive begins.” Allies Prepared. This statement was made by Gen. Joffre to his life-long, bosom friend, the editor of the Depiche de Toul- ouse, I am reliably informed. Gen. Joffre did not say when the great of- fensive was to start, but the impres- sion prevails that the Allies are now ready to an eyelash. In high circles it is believed the offensive is about due. 3 3,000,000 French Ready. Gen. Joffre told his friend that he now has at his disposal 3,000,000 French troops on the line ready to be sent off at a moment’s notice, with- out counting ‘about 700,00 British and 60,000 Belgian troops, co-oper- ating with him. Ammunition has been pouring in in steady streams, he asserted, ‘and in addition to the supply at the front, the Allies have a ‘reserve of '15,000,000 ‘shells for emergency ‘use. : Trenches Plotted. Every German trench, all special defenses, earthworks, blockhouses and kindred structures have been care- fully plotted by draughtsmen who have been Working from photographs made by aviators working systematie- ally week after week. The blue prints have been transferred to ranged canvasses and the range work- ed out by artillery officers. - This collossal task is complete. Strong Defense Works. To meet the expected German counter attacks the Allies have pre- pared strong defensive works. They have constructed fourth, "fifth and sixth-line defenses, worked on a scale pérfectly awe-inspiring. In short, everything is ready for the great move. Few men know exactly when As adver- rest of the week. Just viBemidi}i Shoe Store C. A. KNAPP, Prop. bird. The hole at third was a regular canyon. Moran took Bobby Byrne, a cog of Fred Clarke’s old 1909 cham- pions, and alternating him with young Milton Stock, got by. Here, with one exception in the building up of an infield which has stood yp under the strain of setting a pennant pace against such’famous inner defenses as Schmidt-Evers-Mar- anville and Smith, and Merkle-Doylé- Fletcher and Lobert, and it was built at a moment’s notice. Moran Was Lucky. Moran was lucky? Yah, so were Jess Willard, Percy Haughton, the Leland Stanford crew, Billy John- ston, Bob Gardner and others who came through in the face of monu- mental odds. In the outfield, Pat had Dode Pas- kert, a veteran of rather doubtful stability, and Cactus Cravath, an- other veteran, noted solely for his long drives when he connected, which wasn’t by any means regul- arly. There was also Beals Becker, a sort of baseball nomad, who had seen service under many managers. Moran alternated Becker with Whit- ted until he had his outer works run- ning smoothly. There was the hole left by Slugging Sherry securely stupped. 1% Who is'Pat Moran? i Is Red-headed Irishman. Pat’s just a big, red-headed, red- faced Irishman who doésn’t 'know when he’s. licked, and doesn’t know any more than just to do the best he can ‘with ‘what: he’s got: He never ‘was a star ball player, as stars go.

Press Barred. Newspaper men are again barred from the front, leaves of absence have been suspended, the class of 1916 soldiers have been assigned to their posts, the reserves who have been resting for several weeks in the interior have gone north.

You probably never wore a suit that fitted you like one of these will. You've likely paid $30 for a suit that didn’t compare with our $25 beauty.
