Mayor Dunn’s party was seated next to the notification committee, which was about 15 feet from the president as he addressed the audienced. On Sunday the mayor journeyed to Asbury Park, where he hcard Billy Sunday deliver his last sermon at that place. Norwich Reque Players Here.

The game was by far the most interesting and -exciting game pulled off this season. Neither team was able to score nor was there any signs of scoring until the sixth when Finney of Plainfield, with two strikes against him, hit the ball far over the left field fence for a home run. This ended the scoring until the ninth. Hourigan fanned the first two batters that faced him in the ninth. The next man up got on and Daubert, Webster’s star first sacker, hit a smashing thrce bagger, tieing up the score. White, the next man up, hit a ‘single, scoring Daubert and puiting Webster in the lead. The next man fanned. Plainfield made a_strong effort to tie up the score In their half.

Result of Floods Along the Hwai River in Anhwei Province. { Nanking, China, Sept. 4—One million | persons are threatened with starvation and several hundred thousand have| been rendered homeless as a result of | floods which are raging along the Hwai river in Anhwei province. President Li Yuan-hung has person- ally contributed $100,000 silver for re- lief, and parliament will doubtless make an effort to appropriate money | for the same purpose. However, the Chinese government is practically without funds as a result of the bitter political situation, and Chinese papers say there will be an appalling death list from starvation if the American Red Cross shall not again come to the relief of the stricken. The flooded district is approximate- Iy 200 miles long, and has an average width of 20 miles. It is a flat plain given over largely to wheat cultiva- tion. The residents of the Hwai river val- ley have been the object of charity for many years. The American Red Cross has been endeavoring to better theil‘i condition by interesting financlers in a | reclasation plan which would afford safe outlet for the flood water through the Grand canal. Charles D. Jameson, an American engincer, studied the con- ditions for many years under the di- rection of the American Red Cross, and in 1914 a commission of engineers from America visited the Hwai river valley and approved plans for its reclamation. These plans conterplate the draining of Huntze lake and diversion of:the water of the' Hwal river into Paoying lake, and thence through the Grand canal to the "Yang- tze Tiver, It has been. estimated this would cost thirty milljon dollars’gold, and it could be completed in six years. So far no financicrs have been interested in the.general plan for reclaiming the river basin, but an American concern, Siems, Carey company, of St. Paul Minn,, has been granted a concession ‘to retlatm the Orand .canal. The reclamation of this is the first step in the Hwal river conservancy plan, as much to do with closing the outlet of flood.water from the Hwai river basin, ! and.if she' Grand .canal be deepened and kept in a‘ nerfect - conditlon the Hwal river rose ten feet within a few'\\hexe no further can be pro- days.
