Boston, Oct. 7.—The well-nigh per- iect base ball machine of the Boston American league club triumphed over the Brooklyn Nations here this after- noon, 6 to 5, in the first game of the world’s series, but marred its victory by skidding badly in the final inning. For eight innings the thirty bdd thou- sand loyal supporters of Boston sat with a complacent air of satisfaction, while the junior league champions romped through their National league rivdls to a lead of six to one. With the game apparently won, Boston began to wobble, led by Pitcher Earnest Shore, and before the ast Brooklyn batter had been retired the Brooklyns had gained dour tallies. This surprising break, of which the invading team was quick to take ad- vantage, was the feature of an oth- erwise ordinary base ball game. Beginning to Leave. When Daubert, the first Brooklyn hatsman, stepped to the place in the opening half of the ninth inning, the spectaters were beginning to leave the field, but they halted in their tracks as Shore passed the batter, and Casey Stengel sent him to second with a clean single. A lone Brooklyn rooter began to beat upon a tin pan and here and there were cries of encour- agement for the National league champions, but the cheers died away as Wheat forced Daubert at third. Shore, however, could not control the ball as he had done eatlier in the game, and hit Cutshaw. Mowrey arose to the occasion with a bounder, which Janvrin could not handle, and Stengel and Wheat crossed the plate. Fears of the Boston fans grew when Olson peat out an infield hit, and they were scarcely relieved when Chief Myers fouled out. Merkle{ batting for Pfeffer, outwitted Shore and walked, forcing in Cutshaw with the third run of the inning. . L Puts Mays In. There was not a sound from the thousands when Manager Carrigan ordered Shore from the box and sub- stituted Mays. Myers, Brooklyn’s lead-off batter, scratched an infield hit, scoring Mowrey, and the Na- tionals were within a run of tying the score, with the bases still loaded. Daubert came to the plate for the second time in the inning, and every- one of the thousands of spectators held his breath as the Brooklyn cap- tain hit an ugly bounder to Scott. The shortstop speared the ball as it leaped from the turf and without ausing even to sight, whipped it to oblitzel. Daubert, sliding into the bag head-first, appeared to arrive with the flashing ball, but there was a great cheer when Umpire O'Day, who fairly overhung the base, sig- naled the third out and the ending of the game, Hooper’s Star Play. It was a climax that showed the resources and strength of Boston when under pressure. But it was not the only exhibition of similar na- ture. Right Fielder Harry Hooper uncovered the star individual play of the day in the fourth inning, when he fmade a great running catch of Cutshaw's twisting fly and nipped Wheat, trying to score from third. The ball left Cutshaw's bat as if un- decided where it v%s! going, and Hooper had to sprint oYer toward the foul line, just back of first base, be- fore he could get his hands on it. The effort caused him to slip to the turf in a sitting position, but he was up like a flash and while still rising, hurled the ball straight to Cady. The latter slammed it on Wheat's ankle as he reached for the plate with his foot at the end of a perfect slide. This thrilling catch and throw and the ninth-inning rally of the vanquished Brooklyn team were the outstanding features of the first game of the series, which attracted a gathering of base 0 s that nymbered Two, Column Two.) v er For Nebraska—Unsettled, Temperatures at Omwha Yesterday. m. . m Mo s m.. m. = 7 p. m.. 50 Compurtive al Recoi 1916, 1915, 1914, 1913, Highest yesterday... 8 63 7% 13 Lowest yesterda . 61 36 60 45 Mean temperat 4 44 70 5y Precipitation .00 .00 1.31 .00 Temperature precipitation departures from the normal: Nornial temperature Excess for the day Total excess since ) Normal prectpitation Deficlency for the day Total rainfall since March 1.

GROH. # What is the psychology of th | crowd’s interest in great men? Why did we struggle for a place to see President Wilson and his wife? Why did we hang on their slightest move? We thrilled to them smile, | Those who spoke to them or gained a passing glance felt honored. see they actually ate food like other peo-, | ple. Seven years ago when Mr. Wilson | was president of Princeton university | nine-tenths of the people who saw him -Thursday had never heard of him and wouldn’t have gone a block to see him. Yet he was essentially as learned and able a man then as he is today. Slightly over a year ago none of us had heard of the beau- tiful and gracious lady who is now Mrs. Wilson, Why, then, did we thrill, crowd, jostle and crane our necks? Was it merely admiration? No. For a vast number in that cheering multitude Thursday do not admire Mr. Wilson as a president, And the thrill at seeing Mrs. Wilson would have been just as great if she had been homely instead of beautiful. Was It Loyalty? ‘Was it loyalty for this man because he is chief executive of our repub- lic2 Not exactly. Suppose, instead of President Wilson, we had had Kaiser Wilhelm as our visitor, do you think the crowd would have been smaller> Or suppose the czar of Russia had been here, riding through our streets, lunching at our Commer- cial club and speaking in our Audi- torium! What was it, then? You say, curi- osity. And I agree. But curiosity is an “effect” not a “cause.” We must analyze deeper and find what caused this curiosity, this desire to see, ‘this thrill at seeing. Wasn't it advertising, that mighty power whicli we usually think of as applying only to automobiles and clothing and all things that are sold? The president is the most adver- tised man in America. You read about him every day. He corresponds with foreign potentates; he addresses listening senates; he names ambassa- dors and ministers to foreign cotirts. Every day you read of him in some great role, and he plays this role be- cause of his high office. Advertising ‘Pays. receives is the cause of our curiosity. Of course, patriotism plays a little part also and so does admiration for the attainments of the man. A man, to be.advertised successfully, must be like a product that is advertised successfully. He must have intrinsic merit. You could advertise an ignor- ant and characterless man forever and not get up much interest in him. Our living ex-presidents today at- tract comparatively little attention. Their advcrtisin¥ dropped off with their retirement from office All of which, let it be explained to those who have no taste for psyco- logical speculation, is not intended to detract one iota from the magnifi- cence of our reception to President and Mrs. Wilson. Biggest Week in History for Omaha Ban_k_ Clearings Another record for Omaha bank clearings has been shattered. Ak- Sar-Ben week proved to be the big- gest week in the history of the Omaha clearing house. "l"hc total clearings for the six days were $29,- 795801.83, an average of almost 5.600,000 a day and a gain of over ,000,000 over this week last year. he clearings for the day, $5,227,- 735.36, were the largest of any Sat- urday in history. Shook Wilson's Hand, Won't Wash Her Own| Since Thursday afternoon—more than forty-eight hours—Miss Char- lotte Martin, secretary to County At- torney Magney, has not washed her right hand. She was the only court- house lady privileged to shake the hands of President and Mrs. Wilson after their departure from the re- viewing stand and that same hand is jealously guarded. Vivacious Miss Martin, a devotee of the policy that if one keeps good-natured until 10 o’'clock in the morning the rest of the day will take care of itself, left her seat in the reviewing stand after the parade had passed, confronted the president, stuck out her hand and was then turned over to. Mrs. Wilson and for a few seconds basked in the smiles of the first lady of the land. Miss Martin charmingly boasts that she has gripped the hands of three presidents, Taft, Roosevelt, Wilson, yet she has not yet reached the age of majority. Sioux-City Bakers Make Price 0f Bread Two Cents an Ounce Sioux City, Ia., Oct. 7—Sioux City bakers today abandoned the 5-cent, twelve-ounce loaf of bread. Here- after they will sell a fourteen-ounce loaf for 7 cents and a twenty-ounce loaf for 10 cents. Sacramento, Cal, Oct. 7.—Loaves of bread selling for 5 cents must weigh not less than twelve ounces and those selling for 10 cents not less than twenty-four ounces, according to an announcement tuday by the state sealer of weights and measures. He said he had secured the co-operation of the bakers in making these stand- ards.

Waters. f o NO HOSTILE CR;!‘T SIGHTED Commander Says Vessel Puts in at Norfolk to Deliver Message to Bernstorff. NOTHING IS TAKEN ABOARD Newport, R. I, Oct. 7—The Ger- man submarine U-53 from Wilhelms- haven arrived in the harbor this after- noon. It crossed ,the ocean in seventeen days. The U-53 is a man- of-war, flies the flag of the German navy and has a single gun mounted on its deck. The U in command of Lieuten- ant Cay Hans Rose, appeared spick and span upon its-arrival here | and looked as if it had been out only for maneuvers. Its commander re- ported that he had not sighted any hostile craft on his voyage over, add- ing that the boat was plentifully sup- plied with provisions and fuel and nothing would be taken aboard here. Shortly after the submersible came | in Commander Rose paid an official call upon Rear Admiral Austin M. Knight, commandant of the Narra- gansset Bay station, to whom he| stated that he was preparing to leave | port tonight. Commander Rose explained that the submarine, which is a regular war ves- sel and equipped with wireless, had put in here only to deliver official mail for the German ambassador. He declined to say whether he had been ordered to American waters to search for the German merchant submarine Bremen, long overdue on this side. The submarine made fast time down the harbor and the fleet of small boats which started after it had difficulty in keeping up with its pace. When it disappeared from the view of ob- servers on shore it was still running awash, with no sign of an intention of submerging immediately. Its degti- nation was not revealed. Weather conditions here gre said to be such that the ship could sub- merge within the three-mile limit if necessary. The U-$3 weighed anchor and sailed from the harbor at 5:17 o’clock this afternoon. To Help Save the State for Wilson Vice President Thomas R, Marshall is _scheduled to arrive in Omaha at 3:55 p. m. today. He is being sent to Nebraska by the democratic na- tional committee to assist in an effort to save the state for Wilson as against Hughes. Local democratic leaders admit they are endeavoring to get some more big guns here, because they re- alize that Nebraska has a normal re- publican majority. Word has gone out to the-democratic rank and file to talk up that Nebraska is going for Wilson by a large margin. A city hall democrat is said to have offered” to bet a whole dollar that Wilson will carry Nebraska and $1.50 that he will be elected. Mr. Marshall will speak at Colum- bus, Schuyler and Fremont on Mon- day, returning here for an evening address in the Brandeis theater. Miss Long Thrown From Horse During Race and Injured Kansas City, Mo., Oct. 7.—Miss Lulu Long, nationally known as a horse woman, the daughter of R. A. Long, millionaire lumberman, was se- riously injured here last night when she was thrown from her mount dur- ing a potato race, an event of the American Royal Live Stock show. Miss Long was holding a potato high over her head at the end of a lath spear, defying attempts of op- ponents to knock the potato off the stick, when, in making a sharp turn, | her mount fell to its knees. Miss | Long was thrown head foremost. In | the horse’s floundering to regain its | footing, Miss LongWwas cut many | times. Physicians declared they did not believe her condition dangerous. Miss Long wa en home im- mediately, The inj ‘was the first | she ever had while riding despite the fact that she has been the central| figure in several smash-ups during the horse shows over the country. Sick Girl's Spirit Haunts Indian Camp Peace brooded over hushed Fort Omaha Friday night. The Indians would not dance, squaws talked in only whispers and all lights except the campfire were dim. The spirit of Julia Faumfaumfoci, the young In- dian girl, was hovering over all, Julia, lying at the Swedish Mission hospital, was on the brink of the hap- py hunting ground. Many stalwart bucks had called at the hospital in the afternoon and had so reported to their chiefs. Julia could not even speak to them, they said. And when the campfires were lighted in the murky dusk of evening, Indians saw in the flames the young girls' spirit. O1d heads took counsel then and from the big tent came the order not to dance. The death watch was on. And in the morning Julia was con- valescing, hospital authorities said. The Indians went back to the reser- vation confident that her spirit had MORNING, OCTOBER 8, which was driven in the parade on Thursday afternoon. been restored to her | 1916—FIVE SECTIONS—THIRTY-FOUR PAGES.

ALSO STOLEN CAR NUMBERS After urrcs(i:g——s.evcral alleged members of an automobile stealing syndicate, whose operations have cov- ered several states,- Officers Unger, Brinkman, Pipkin and Bsuman went to the farm of James Kelldg, two miles south of eth and Leaven- worth streets, and™ound .in his barn a stolen Buick car. Stamps, steel dies and other articles of similar character, besides the num- bers of several stolen Iowa vehicles, were also found. The number of the Buick recovered was 177,816 Iowa. An engineer's name Boyd Wallace, Box 2, Ames, field book hearing the 1a, was found in the barn. It was learned from neighbors that Friday night four Ford cars were re- moved from the Kellog property. After driving the Buick car to po- lice headquarters the officers started on a search for members of the gang who are believed to be in Omaha. Kellog himself has not been arrested, Stagecoach Stirs 0ld-Time Memories G. W. Holdrege ahd C. J. Ernst, general manager and treasurer, re- spectively, of the Burlington lines west of the Missouri river, took par- ticular interest in the old stagecoach historical Seated beside the driver of this old coach was Thomas Ryan, a pas- senger conductor of the Burlington line between Nebraska City and Lin- coln. Mr. Holdregeavaved recognition to Mr. Ryan, who returned the saluta- tion. Fifty years ago Mr. Ryan drove a similar coach with the mail from Ne- braska City to Lincolm via Syracuse, Palmyra, etc. At that time Mr. Ernst was a clerk in the bookstore of N. S, Harding & Co., at Nebraska City, which store was in the same room with the postoffice, and it was Mr. Ernst's duty to receive the mail from Mr. Ryan when he drove in every | night with the coach. Mr. Ernst was sworn into the United States mail service in connection with his work as clerk in the store. He was only 15 years when he started his double dulfi'. n When the Nebraska City-Linco coach service was abandoned Mr. Ryan became a conductor on the Mid- land Pacific and later entered the Burlington service. |Grand Island Woman Hurt in Runaway Grand Island, Neb., Oct. 7.—(Spe- cial)—Mrs. Georle L. Rouse, wife of the ex-speaker of the Ne braska house, was’sériously injured late yesterday, in a runaway accident. Her horse suddenly took fright, turned quickly and upset the buggy. Mrs. Rouse was caught in the vehicir) and wsa dragged for some distance. Charles Bremer, 14-yegr-old boy, who was driving, held ast to the lines, despite his fall, and finally again brought the animal under cantrol. He was injured about thg ffeet. The Misses Sampson came along in an au- tomobile and found Mrs. Rouse along- side the road, unconscious, They partially revived her to consiousness and brought her to the general hospi- tal, where it was fqund that the right shoulder was dislocated, the left shoulder broken dand that there was an injury to the hip, probably a frac- ture. There were fortunately no in- ternal injuries and recovery is ex- pected, though at her age, about 60 years, it may be slow. |NEW YORK T0 SAYS WADSWORTH }!'ormer Senator of Empire State Declares thre Indica- I tions Are Plain, |SEES NOVEMBER VICTORY (From & Statf Correspondent.) Lincoln, Neby Oct, 7.—(Special.) —“New York will go for Hugl\gg_hy a majority without, a question of a doubt,” said United States eSnator J. W. Wadsworth to The Bee while in Lincoln. “In fact,” said the senator, “the! whole country is going for Hughes. Frantic efforts of the demo- crats to make the people believe that Wilson is popular are not getting any- where. ~The very fact that they are resorting to some of the methods they do to carry their ends and to manu- facture public opinion, indicates they themselves recognize they are grad- ually losing.” Senator ‘Wadsworth was mighty pleased with his reception in Ne- braska and also well pleased with the republican sentiment wherever he has been. He believes that Nebraska will be found on the republican side, as will nearly every northern state. The rapidly changing sentiment all over encourages republicans mightily, ac- cording to Senator Wadsworth, and means nothing less than an over- whelming victory for Governor Hughes. Senator Wadsworth is a (inc‘speak- er and one of the prosperous farmers of the state of New York. A graduate of Yale and a star on her foot ball team, he enlisted in the Spanish- American war and saw service in Cuba with a Philadelphia battery. Voters Studying Political Problems Turning t0 G. 0, P, . (From a Staft C ondent. ) Lincoln, Oct, —(Special.)—~De- mand for republican literature is causing the republican state commit- tee to do a lot of hustling. Many times a day visitors go to headquar- ters and ask for literature that will enable them to get the inside of the many problems the voter will have to settle. “This all indicates,” said Chairman Beach today, “that thc people are waking up and when they show the interest they are beginning to show now, there is no neéd for us to worry |over the result. I have been of the | opinion from the very start that just as soon as our speakers got busy the people would want to know the fact |and as they learn them there is only Hughes and the republican ticket, “Did you ever notice,” said the | chairman, “that as soon as a voter ;gcls to studying the situation for him- interests will be conserved by voting the republican ticket?” Steamer Afire Off The Virginia Caves; Passengers Aboard Newport News, Va, Oct. 7.—A wireless message picked up shortly before 9 o'clock tonight from the Ward liner Antilla said the steamer was afire 120 miles off the Virginia capes and that its ship’s company was taking to the lifeboats.

The detectives planned to -secret themselves and close in on the band. Perry was able to come to Oak Creek today and take part in direct- in%_ pursuit of the kidnapers, he authorities believe there were about twelve in the plot. Sheriff Chivington stated today he had sev- eral clues, which he believed would result in the capture of the others members today. b The names of the dead kidnaper and the four suspects were unknown, They are said to be foreigners, for- mer miners in the Oak Creek dis- trict.

Last week was one continual pro- cession of glories. The industrial parade came first, It was excellent, Then came the electrical parade Wednesday evening, It measured up tothe higfi standard of the electrical parades of previous years. And then came Thursday, perhlfis the greatest day Omaha has seen. The historical parade passed throufih the streets crowded with peo‘g}e, eaded by President Woodrow Wilson and Mrs. Wilson, It was reviewed by the President and Mrs. Wilson from the reviewing stand in front of the court house. B There was a dinner to the presis dent and an address by him at the Auditorium.

What was it that kept the crowds walking around and around the jubilee grounds”on their “poor ould feet” as a well known English come- dienne would say? 1 Many didn’t make the shows. Still & night after night scores of the same faces were on the beat, apparently tir- ing not of completing the circuit with those to whom the attractions were new. Ask one person ard see if you get a real explanatory answer, But there was an answer, and one that has made .{)\k-Sar-Bcn the success it has always een. It was the spirit of the throng, or more aptly the good spirit of the crowd that did it. Whether the untiring pedestrian be a farmer, a city man, woman or child, it was all the same.

Good humor and good fellowship attracted each one alike, no matter what their walk in life might be, Fun | oozed about the enclosure in = such’ quantity and quality. that a visitor absorbed it whether he payed in cash or not, i That was the secret. Say what you will, it cannot be denied.” Had you lingered near the gate and trailed some sour visaged individual through the portals, then continued the scent while he made the round trip, say once, or even twice, you would have seen his countenance: brighten, On the same site that “Billy” Sun- day shouted his message o ood cheer, “Brighten the Corner Where tYl'qu Are,” the masses did just that . hing. .
