MIDDLETON 1§ NO TERROR FOR OMAHA Leading Hurler of American Association Is Hammered From Mound. NORTH HURLS A GOOD GAME The Rourkes drew first blood in the post-season series now being staged by the Omaha Western league pen- |y nant winnerg and Louisville, leaders crew scattered the gore of the Clymer clan all over the lot yesterday morn- ing and copped the combat, 11 to 7. The 11-to-7 score-is misleading. The seven runs for Louisville would ordi- narily indicate that the enemy clouted Lou North soundly. On the contrary, they didn't. Six of the seven runs and seven of the ten hits were gathered in the ninth inning. Three of the hits “were outfield flies that Earl Smith lost in the sun, They all went for two- : . But one of the Louisville runs should have been counted, and three of the hits made. immy Middleton led the hurlers of the American association this year, It was largely through his superior box work that the Kentuckians captured the American association flag. He performed so well that John McGraw ve Six for him.. But Jimmy ooked like The Rou uns and twelve hits 1 six innings.

Elfldi Smith ended the agony by grounding out, Midlleton was nicked for five more safeties in the sixth, but they only netted two runs, Shag Thompson cracked a triple to left after Krug went out, and scored on Miller's double to right. Miller counted on 1 's single to center. Forsythe and Burg also made hits, but they i couldn't push‘a run acros R James Hgs Trouble. Middleton was yanked at the end of the sixth and Lefty James was asked to assume the twirling burden, Lefty found the going rough in the seventh and eighth, when the Rourkes put over three and one runs, respec- Y In the seventh Miller beat out a bunt, Krueger walked and Forsythe was punctured in the slats, choking the run\u‘.

The Colonels failed to make a hit off North in the first three frames. In the fourth Burg failed to catch mn‘omnp bunt and the dinky fly went for a hit. In the seventh Mc- Carthy and Roach made singles; but couldn’t score, Thus until the ninth Lou was onl. nicked for three hits. In the ninth r Corriden flew out McCarthy and .oach singled. Williams flew out, but Sniarnglllmr delivered a hit, scoring Mc! y. Then Compton, Whiteman and Platte all hit flies to left field. And Earl Smith lost every one in the sun, and every one went for a two- base hit.

A year ago hardly anyone seemed to want to give the released &riloner a job. A year followed of Mr. Os- borne and good times, and the great change has come. Toda{ the special employment secretary of the Prison Association of New York says he is able to refute the statement frequently made that discharged prisdners are returning to crime because nobody will hire_.them. In July, 1916, he re- ported that every able-bodied man that applied during the ‘month of June and was willing to work and take what was found for him was laced within a few days. Wages ran rom $9 to $22 a week. | One former. prisoner writes that he is getting $18 a week as bookkeeper lmf eneral clerk and is going to re- ¢ expenses “defrayed in his be- Another of the gray brother- hood says that he has “suffered” an increase in salary, and that he is not “kicking about the Saturday afternoon hc;l;ldly that has been dispensed with" Good will toward the released pris- oner is spreading. Hundreds of New York merchants wert asked last win- ter to give employment to men just out of prison. A manufacturer, hay- ing taken five men, telephoned into the office saying that the men were doing so well that he wondered if they had not given false statements as to having had a prison rgcprd for the purpose of securing positions. The surge in the prisoner’s behalf is not confined to any one state. Henry Ford has at least 600 released risoners in his works at Detroit. Kdiss Katharine B. Davis, chairman of the parole commission of New York City, has been organizing the relief societies of the 'u?" into a co- operative agency for finding employ- ment-for men and women coming out of the city prisons. The men at Sing Sing and” Auburn prisons are estab- lishing branches of the Mutual Wel- fare league outside the prisons. In an- other state a new relief society has been organized by a man formerly in prison. In Kansas the prisoners are planning a co-operative bureau. Many other instances might be cited—Re- view of Reviews. Norwoods Win Toss.

MEXICO HEARD FROM, TOO Boston, Mass., Oct. 5—The extent of the appeal of the world’s series as an event as widespread in interest as the name implies, was shown by requests to club and press officials, Many persons had sent inquiries from the battle frontin France some weeks ago, from the Canadian northwest by telegraph, within the last week, and from Mexico. The committee in charge of press arrangements, report- ing a greater demand for newspaper representation than ever before, said Canada, Cuba and Panama. The world champion Boston Amer- icans, marking”time from the end of the season, which brought, them an-| other pennant, to the hour they meet | the Brooklyn Nationals on Saturday | in defense of greater base ball honors, divided forces. One group headed by Captain Jack Barry went to Wor- cester to oppose the Philadelphia Americans in a game arranged to as- sist a memorial fund for the old-time umpire, John H. Gaffney. Others of the team went again to Braves field, where the local games will be played, for light practice. Manager Carri- gan,\ who was with the latter group, said that “the boys are¢ in good shape except for Foster and Barry.” Wheth- er either, or both, would be able to take an active part in the series was still uncertain, he said. Close fallow- ers of the team claiming no authority for -their statement predicted toda: that Carrigan himself would catcl the opening game, with Leonard as the pitcher.. Allotment of the 27,000 reserved- seat tickets was finished early today, with probably more than 1,000 appli- cations unanswered. . The available reservations were over-subscribed so redtly that many persons who asked or a modest pair of seats were al- lowed but one, while others asking for six and eight in some instances obtained only a pair. To receive their tickets applicants besieged the club box office today, and with the an- nouncement of last night that reser- vations werd not specific, but applied only to the number of seats allowed, with early comers getting preference | of location, - the grandstand ticket lines resembled a bleacher rush. This desire to be on the grounds eafly was reflected today in the ar- rival at hotels of hundreds of vis- itors, some of whom at least had come ahead of time hoping to get the pick of seats, Hotel men reported early in- dications of a tremendous business, requests for reservations having taxed the capacity in several instances to the point where cots were ordered.

About 2,000 fans turned out for the con- flict yesterday morning, and they went home entirely satisfled. Lou North evidently was out to win that morning contest. He not only made a home run, but a double too. The home run was & line drive Into right fleld which jumped into the bleachers on the first bounce. Kewple Kilduff made a lot of noise with & brace of triples, one with two on base and the other with three on. And against a guy who is going to be his teammate next year, too, / Shag Thompson dldn't waste any time when he got on the bases. He scored three times, every time he got on. That Roach-McCarthy combination around the keystone sack worked two swell double plays that cut down Rourke runners at dan- gerous periods. Pete Compton almost made a one-handed catch of North’s double, but the ball bounced out of his hand stretched far above his head. ‘Whiteman made a long running catch of a drive by Thompson. Just before the game Red Corriden suf- fered a rap In the face by a batted ball One of his mates hitting fungoes to the out- tleld sent one low and Red stopped it with his nose. He sustained a bad cut that bled all during the game. . A smart dopester bet his hat on Loulsville with a farmer boy in town to see the Ak- Sar-Ben stunts. He left at the end of the seventh inning and the farmer lad found himself in possession of a swell new gray 1ld. The farmer boy was a booster and he went home with two hats, while the other chap had nothing to protect his curly locks from the chill October breezes. ’ Bllly Clymer was very much subdued yes- terday. When he saw Mlddleton get the daylights lambasted out of him, he didn't have the heart to open his trap. Red Corriden has failed to make a hit yet. He hit a hard line drive yesterday, but Marty Krug speared it The Colonels got Schauer, Stroud, Wen- dall, Killifer and Palmero for Middleton and are due to get ome more athlete. If Mec- Graw likes Middleton he ought to be tickled to death with Kilduff and Krueger. A Otto Merz will probably chuck against the Colonels today, while Hub Perdue or Schauer will likely toll for the opposition. “JEB” STUART, HAIG'S MODEL. Britsh Commander Thinks South- erner the g?‘lreme Cavalry ¢! us. General Sir Douglas Haig is said to deem the confederate J. E. B. Stuart the supreme cavalry "genius of the nineteenth century. When he was general officer commanding at Alder- shot Haig impressed the details of Stuart's career upon his staff. Haig’s failure to achieve promotion to the very highest command earlier in his career—the chief is 56, nearly—is ascribed to that heresy prevalent on the subject of the cavalry against which Hajg's own career flas been one long protest. He is at the head of the “big push” because of the belated discovery in Europe of the reallesson of the civil war in America. 1The personality of Haig has much in common with another of his heroes —Stonewall Jackson. Like the great confederate leader, Haig has a marked strain of evangelical, piety. He has a serious style of speech and a touch of the pale student, for he has delved deeply into military history and writ- ten much on the theme of cavalry. On the whole he is somber, like Jackson, rather than dashing, in the fashion of Stuart, the pair whom he seems to place above any others as the heroes of his own arm of the service, Haig has humor, nevertheless, and he sometimes reveals it through the medium of an apt citation from the Scriptures, which he reads diligently, His intellect is markedly Scotch and metaphysical and his favorite poet is affirmed to be Robert Burns. It is said of him that he.never reads a novel. One of his complaints against the war office in London has reference to its failure to provide music, a neglect now almost a thing of the past. The British military band yet bids fair to rival the German trumpeters, thanks to, Haig, The officers’ mess was not prepared for Haig’s reply to the quartermaster who asked him during the Colesberg operations in the Boer war if,/in a brush with the Boers, he had lost any- thing. “Ves,” confessed Haig, sol- emnly, “my Bible!” Not once did his countenance relax its gravity as he gazed at the grinning faces in his vicinity, To thie day Haig is grimly Scot in his spirituality, attending the Presbyterian services evety Sabbath at the front, reveling in doctrinal ser- mons_that are not at all brief.—Cur- rent Opinion. Multiplication. “For goodness' sake, John, how long did you boll those eggs?” “Just as long as you told me to, my mpossible! They're hard as bricks." “I botled them just twelve minutes." “Twelve?

Seep \ “THE RUBE” MAY HURL IN OPENER Marquard Reported to Have Been Selected to Pitch First Game Against Red Sox. SAY ROBINS GOING TO WIN New York, Oct. 5.—Wilbert Robin- son, manager of the Brooklyn Nation- al league club, pitted his regulars against New York in the game in Brooklyn this afternoon as a final workout for the opening of the world’s series at Boston on Saturday. “We are going out to win, and I think we can do it,” said Robinson. “Our team has played good ball all season, and we held the lead almost all the way through, cxc*t for a day or two here and there. We measure uf to the Red Sox, and with our team playing its best ball right now there\ 18 no reason why it can’t win. We'll show the fans some real playing. Mar- gua.rd, Coombs, Cheney, Pfeffer and mith will show them some pitching, and we are not worrying.” “Rube” Marquard, who is reported to have been selected to pitch the opening game for Brooklyn, said he was in top form now and that Brook- lyn is going to win. “We will be right at their throats- all the time,” declared Jack Coombs. “If anyone believes Boston is going to ride right over us he is reckoning without men of the stamp of Jake Daubert, Pfeffer, Marquard and Chief Meyers.‘_’ 7 The first big wager here on the series was announced today when it was stated that E. E. Smathers, the owner of the fast horses, had placed SZO,(X)Q to $14000 on the Boston Ameri¢ans to win. It was announced that the four um- 5 pires chosen for the world’s series would meet in Boston today to agree upon a uniform interpretation of the rules. The “infield fly” is one point upon which an agreement is desired, because in the American league a run- ner must hold his base on such a fly, while in the National league he can run at his own risk.
