Baseball enthusiasts awoke this morning with joy to find a clear sky and every thing favorable for the second game between the New York Giants and Philadelphia Americans for the world's championship.

The players went into today's game with increased confidence. More chances will be taken on bases and In working the inside trick plays. If the Athletics fall to defeat the Giants' great left-hander, Rube Marquard, they will be tremendously disappointed.

E HALL BE FREE Rowan Lyncher Is Given Commutation Many People, Including t4K Legi slators, Asked Governor to I'milon Man Charged with Conspiracy to Kill in Lyerly Murder Lynching. George Hall, the only white man convicted for the lynching of the negroes accused of the murder of the Lyerly family in Rowan county live years ago, was today granted a com mutation by Governor Kitchin. Manv leading citizens of Rowan county, the officers, 148 legislators and others requested the pardon. The Lyerly family was murdered in 190C near Barber Junction and the house burn ed. Hall was tried in August of that year and given a sentence of fif teen years in the penitentiary. Ho will be liberated Dcember 20, this year, and his commutation is subject to good behavior. In his reasons for commutation, the governor says: "Prisoner was one of a multitude that '.participated in the lynching of - the negroes charged with the murder of the Lyerly family In Rowan county a little over five years ago. I am in formed that there was no evidence at the trial connecting film with ti e lynching further than that he was in the crowd which attacked the jail. He was properly convicted of conspiracy to kill. No one else" was convicted. The law fixes the imprisonment at from two to fifteen years In the discretion of the court. Prisoner has a good prison record, and has been worth much to prison discipline by his example Owing to bis skill as a carpenter and fidelity he has been worth for his labor several ordinary prisoners, many officers and other leading citi zens of Rowan county, 145 members of the legislature, and many other reputable citizens recommend clem ency. I therefore commute his sen tnce to a term expiring on the 20th of December 1911, on condition that he remain law abiding and of good behavior here after." Dan Curry Happy. Another pardon was issued today, Dan Curry, an old negro, convicted In Davidson county In August of sell ing liquor, being the beneficiary. Curry was sentenced to six months In Jail. In his reasons for commut ing the sentence, .the governor says: "This old negro, seventy years old, was never In court before, and bore a good character. He Is badly dis eased. Two physicians after examin ing certify that in their opinion pris oner's life will be greatly endangered by service of the court's sentence. I therefore commute his sentence to two months on condition that he re main of good behavior, and that he give a bond to be approved by the clerk of the superior court of David son In the sum of $100.00 for' his appearance for the next three years at the first spring and fall terms of said court to show that he has been law abiding and fo good conduct.'' A wise man Is merely less ot a fool than the average. 1 J v-r "Chiel .Miners, tile tiiiiiiuis ciitibei' ol Hie New 1 oik (units who will lie one ol the central (mures in tin, world s championship series lie.
