Every year some of our oltlxena have been taking the long trip north to see this greatest of all events In the baseball world. But owing to th? energetic management of the New Theatre there will be no need of this needteea waste of money any more, ux Bl it?8i uoi \nio isii. nnnbyular play housq, has Installed.one of the latest electrical scotp 'boards by which they will be able to glre every play Just as It Is seen on tbe ball diamond either In Philadelphia or Boston. Any person that has ever witnessed a game displayed'' on an electrical board will tell you that it Is Just as good, if not better, t han the game Itaelf. The Western Union I Telegraph Company will install a i wire right In the New Theafre so that they can give the games direct from the diamond whll-j they are going on. It takes a great deal of nerve and money for any one to undertake giving the returns from the World's Series in a small town of I this slse on an electrical score board, tor it is a very UgptnSTVU VIU|iUg.tlon. So the New Theatre should recelvo iho hearty support of every baseball loving cltisen of the town. PLAY FOR LRRLEY CUP BBOIBfS TODAY NVw York. Sept.

OFFICERS SHOULDER TO SHOULDER WITH MEN London, Sept. 28.?An eloquent commentary on the feeling that exists between British officers and men. and a reason why the list of casualties among the British commissioned officers has been so largo .is furnished in the following letter written by a non-commissioned officer of Ch? Buffs.: '"Wo regiment fought harder than WA flirt *nrt no rfelninnt ha. hotter Of ficors. who went shoulder to shoulder with their men, but 70U can't expect absolutely impossibilities to be accomplished, no matter how brave the boya are, when you are fighting a force of twenty to thirty times as strong.
