Boston, Oct. 12. The Boston Red Sox are on the
verge of winning their fourth world's championship,
Rwviim TViHcrera are on the brink of a base-
ball eclipse. One more smash such as Thursday s, and
the Superbas go down for the count. One little shove is
all that is necessary to complete the tragedy- who put
bush in Flatbush." Thursday wnen wey wexe u cann
ed by half dozen rollicking sluggers, the1 Bostons proved
their metal in the field, kicked their heels loose from the
Dodgers' clutch. Within one game of the highest niche of

SHORE AND PFEFFER ON MOUND TODAY.
Manager Robinson la staking his last chance m VMter, and has
the veteran receiving star. Chief Meyers behind the bat. Mana
ger Carrigan depend upon Shore to do the trick for the Red Sox;
Cady is catching. -v
Not a scratch of any kind but a measly inexpensive error by
Brooklyn was made in the initial frame of what is most likely to
be the last of the 1916 championship series.
UOTH SCORED IN SECOND.
Brooklyn scored in her half of the second inning, and Won
quickly tied np the score when her turn came. Score at end of
inning one to one.
BOSTON FORGES AHEAD BY TWO RUNS.
Brooklyn was at the mercy of Shore in the third, and went the
one-two-three route. Boston again got busy with the stick, and when
the third down was made had piled up a two-run lead, making two
hits in the inning. Score now 3 to 1 in Boston's favor.
In the fourth neither side "hurt'?, the scoreboard. No runs, no
hits, no errors was the count for the inning.
BOSTON ADDS ANOTHER IN FIFTH.
Brooklyn auJed one hit, but no scores in the fifth while Bos
ton took kindly to two of Pfcffer's slants and tallied one. Score
at end of inning 4 to 1 with Boston having the advantage.
In the sixth Boston got a hit, but neither side was able to
score. Brooklyn did likewise in the seventh, but there was nothing
doing in the run-getting line. -
Brooklyn failed to overcome th e lead in either the eighth or ninth
try and the Boston Red Sox are again crowned as world champions.
The score in this, the deciding game, was 4 to 1; the hits were 7
and 3, and the, errors 2 and 3 for Boston and Brooklyn, respectively.
CHARITIES AWAY BEHIND,
IN FUNDS FOR WINTER
The United Charities may have to
start a farm or something of the sort,
according to friends of the organiza
tion. There is not nearly enough
money in the treasury for the pres
ent needs, and the cold weather has
not begun. Capt. M. Vendeville of
the Salvation Army, J,vho is secretary
of the Charities, admits that the or
ganization owes him about $G5 loan
ed of his own funds. New E'arn even
New Bern, gives more than $1,000 a
year for organized charity work, he
states.

"We are not here to say what we

Four Republican "speakers" who

said something like that, or vthcy

what they might have said. They did
not say anything. There wasn't any

spellbinding was to be pulled off was
on hand, but he didn't have the time
to turn loose everything and listen.
He sold the orators two bottles of
