For the Raisingog Its Army—Under Like Call to Celors This Country Could Raise Eight Million. (Special to The Bulletin.) ‘Washington, g United States colors. as many men in porportion to ihe population as Servia has, it would mean an army of upward of eight mil- lien men,” says a statement issued by National Geographic society, at < , “and this does not take into account:the fact that the recent wars in the little coun- iry have made such fatal igroads into the percentage of adult male pop- ulation. ~Probably, if the United States called as many men to the colors in proportion to the adult male population, it would mean an army of toda: twelve million men. “These res show what a heavy hand Austria-Hungary laid upon the little country whose army gave such a remarkable account of ffself durthg the two wars it has fust passed through before this, third one descend- ed upon it. How terrible the ravages of the wars in the Near East have been is indicated by the census of con- quered territory taken by Bulgaria in the early months of the present year. That count showed that where, pre- vieus to the wars, there had been a population of 702,000 there is now a population of only 301,000. Of course ! Servia did not suffer that much, but these figures are indicative of the great wars it had to face. Tilitary critics everywhere admit thai in matters of dicipline, leadership, adamantine spirit, and elan, there is no_army it size in the world that can make a better showing than the Ser- vian army made during its wars with Turkey and Bulgaria. It is a fighting force that is conceded.to have every f strength that a military ma- possess. “Its plan or organization is distinc- tive. Compulsory service is personal for all able bodied men and pecuniary for all who are incapable of personal service. These latter must pay an indirect tax of 30 per cent. additional. The military forces are divided into a national army and the Landstrum, which forms the last line of defense. Service in the national army begins at twenty-one and ends after forty-five. In the Landstrum it begins at seven- teen. ends at twenty-one, begins again at forty and ends at fifty. “The national army consists of three bans: The first ban including all able Dbodied men between twenty-one and thirty-eicht, and the third those be- tween thirty-eight and forty-five. ““The first ban has its _cadre,.a school through which every able bodied man of twenty-one must pass. No one is allow™ fo change his nationality while belonging to the first ban; nor can any member thereof recelve any outside appointment or become even a monk untii he has served his term in the army. ““The term of service in the standing * carde is two yvears in the cavalry and artillery, and one and a half years in the other branches of the establish- ment. here is a six months’ service for those in the schools of the coun- try who can pass an examination for lieutenant of reserves. . There is also a six months' enlistment for recruits from whose homes at least two others have served the full time. “All those who possess cattle and suitable carts are under obligation to turn them over to the army when needed. Those who do not possess cattle and carts have flve per cent. to their taxes for the remount Apia Surrendered Aug. 29. Liondon, Aug. 30, .720 p. m.— The of- ficial information bureau announces hat Apia (a seaport of Upolu Szmoan slands and capital’of the German part of the group) surrendered on the morning of Aug. 29 to a British force from New Zealand. | Germany’s Samoan possessions have en c¢onsidered as her most strategic on in the Paclfic. _ llingford—At the Methodist Entwopu church Sunday morning and ‘aves ‘Evangelist Miss 3.

The largest crowd of the season as- sembled on the Cranberry Sunday afternoon and saw the Bearcats win out from the weakened All Stars by the score of 5 to 0. The game was a great pitcher’s battle between Brick- ley of the Stars and Johnston of the Bearcats. Johnston struck out 17 men and Brickley 10. The Bearcats made six hits off Brickley and the Stars only two off Johnston's Jelivery. These came in the eight inning. Bill Stanley, whose work in the field shone like a beacon light opened the cighth with a sharp single and Daly fmm the New York state league drove slashing double to left cent Jahnmn fanned the next three ba Brickley pitched the best game rz.ll career and if given fast sup- port -the -contest might have been a scoreless tie. The score was 1 to 0 up to the seventh inning and then two_errors and a couple of singles started the Bearcats scoring. Bill Stanley the N, F. A. star and Daly at first contributed the fielding features for the All Stars whilé Germain in the left garden and McSheffrey at the initial sack excelled for the Bearcats. Next Sunday the management will se- cure a fast out of town team to per- form on the Cranberry -and will strengthen the Star lineup, which was weakened by the absence of Murphy, Dugas, Young and L. Stanley. Next Saturday is an open date and any team that can pay a suitable guaran- iee has the opportunity of securing a stellar attraction. Score by inni Beat Cats All Stars .

In William Doak, a slender youth, the Cards have the premier pitcher of the National League based on games won and lost. Doak's development is charged to the shrewd handling of Huggins. The pitcher’s record of six- teen games won and flve lost up to Saturday was bullt up on “new stuff” for Doak, the use of a moist ball which Huggins prevailed upcn the young twirler to master. Huggins al- so advised “Polly” - Perriett, a moist ball heaver, - to discard that delivery and depend upon a fast ball with a “hop” on it. Thus two of the leading trio of Cardinal pitchers were made by Huggins. Doak is only twenty-three years old and his career includes experience as a pitcher for a high school team in his rative city of Pittsburg. He twirled for the Wheeling (W . Va.) team in the Central League in 1910-11. Co- lumbus of the American Assoclation ~ < “Willle” a trial in 1912, but Doak was considered too frail of stature. Doak kept plugging in the minors and in the fall of 1912 was trled out by “Hank” O'Day, then directing the Reds. Doak pitched two innings for the Reds and that night was ordered away. Doak Cost $500; Now Priceless, Last year “Bddie” Herr, a onetime minor league manager, who brought out “King” Cole at Bay City, Mich, was sent out by Huggins as a scout and he rounded up Doak .at Akron, Ohip, at a cost of $500. Doak’s debut was at the Polo Ground in a two in- ning rellef turn. Accoding to the St. Louis historians, John McGraw offered $10,000 for “Willie” after the young- ster had pitched his full first game against the Giants. Last seasqn he won only two out of ten games, but he came forth this spring with a cun- ningly . controlled slippery elm ball added to his repertoire and victories began to pile up. When pitching agalnst the wind in a game at the Polo Ground this season Doak showed a moist ball with a break from walst high that rendered it practically un- hitting The youthful right hander didn't get parental encouragement at the be- ginning of his career in baseball, but now the enbryonic mining engineer is urged to delay entrance upon that vo- cation' until he has begun to taper off as a pitching star. MATTY CHANGES HIS STYLE. Fourteenth Year of Old Master Being Made Successful by This Use. 013 Man Christy Mathewson is lead- ing the pitchers of both the American and National leagues. The remarkable part, though, is that he is doing it at the age of 33, and during the shdnk end of his l4th season in fast compaay. None of the other star pitchers is any- where near Maitty's record of games won, and none of them has pitched anywhere near as many games. A unlq e feature of Mathewson's pitch- is year is that he has changed hla style in many ways and nobody ap- pears to have noticed it., This season he has given more bases on balls and has hit more batters than in any pre- vious one. He has dropped his old system-of control first, last and all the |® time, and as a result thereof has the boys guessing. Instead of putting the ball over the plate every time he is putting more stuff on the ball, and the occasional bursts of wildness only ac- centuate his control when he needs it. For years batters have been able to face Matty feeling assured that he ‘would make no wlld pitches nor give a base on balls. They would step right in and hit at the first one, feeling pretty sure that it would be over. This year things are different. The bean- ing of several batters has helped to keep -wny from the plate. gmbyllblflm—finhmdl’mflihng&e rEzzssauf bhaseahey EASTERN ABSOCIATION STANDING Mrwonmaly B onuowurnel H Smooxous PO S " (PR 3 5 Fuetly {yo"o | nmnaueares Fleck) Lo q su:.-.u:i!
