ee Big Money in Baseball. When your boy goes out onto the back lot with a baseball and bat he may be starting a career that will wind up in a world’s series game. Of course it may not be a dignified pro- fession but it is literally paved with ducats. By this time most of you know that St. Louis won the world’s series over the New York Americans. Grover Cleveland Alexander did it with his mighty right arm. Babe Ruth beat the world’s record for home run swats, making three in one game. The Babe has been drawing down a salary of $50,000 a year with bonuses, and becauses of his three swats he says he is going to ask $150,000 a year in his next contract, which will be just double the salary of the Presi- dent of the United States. Of course he may not get it, but it need not be surprising to see him get $75,000 or $100,000. And this brings us to the financial story of the world’s series which is told in the following figures: Attendance, 328,051. Receipts, $1,207,864. Players’ share (first four games only,) $372,300.51. Winning players’ share (60 per cent.) $156,366.21. Losing players’ share (40 per cent.) $104,244.14. Each member of winning team, $6254.65. Each member of losing team, $4168.18. Advisory council's share, $181,179.60. Each club’s share, $158,595.93. Each league's share, $158,595.97. To Finish Dam on Sunday. The masonry work of the big fish dam the State Centre Game, Fish and Forestry association, of Philipsburg, is building on the Black Moshannon has been completed and sixty per cent. of the filling has been put in place. The men in charge hope to have the work so far advanced that the dam can be completed on Sunday. Accord- ing to present plans, the pipes which have been used to carry the water through the breast of the dam will be cut out or clbsed at nine o'clock on Sunday morning and the final filling will then be put in place. As there is considerable water in the stream now the dam will fill rapidly, and a call has been sent out for a large force of volunteers to assist in filling the gap in order to keep ahead of the rise of water. Lin ae ae Academy Football Team to Get Lov- ing Cup from Red Grange.

Two contracts aggregating $1,100- 003.01 were awarded by the State Highway Department last Friday for the grading and drainage of the last long stretch on the primary State highway system, the road from Lock Haven to Renovo. One contract was for eleven miles between Renovo and Keating, which was awarded to the Miller Construction company, of Punxsutawney, for $452,885.26. The eighteen mile stretch between Lock Haven and Hyner was awarded to the William C. Horn company, of Athens, Pa., for $647,117.75. This highway will run through some of the wildest country in the State. For the most part it will be on cliffs considerably higher than the tracks of the New York Central rail- road company. It will cross the west branch of the Susquehanna river at Hyner on a new concrete arch bridge. The relocation of the road between Renovo and Keating will result in the elimination of ten grade crossings. When completed the road will be one of the most picturesque on the entire | highway system. i ——Joseph S. Gerogocian, the well known Pittsburgh importer of oriental rugs and draperies, is conducting a display, this week, at the store of Weidner and Hake, in Altoona. His collection represents a value of $150,- 000 in rugs and carpet sizes of pat- terns and coloring to suit all tastes. The values are said to be wonderful and the prices quite moderate. The display and special offering will be withdrawn tomorrow evening. di ——A very interesting display of the products of the Titan Metal Co., of this place, is on exhibition in the windows of the Bell Telephone Co’s office in the Arcade. We must confess that it is a revelation to us and will probably prove the same to many others. The Titan Co. has been an important industry here for some years, but as its processes are secret the public has known little of its great variety of products. ie ge ——A considerable part of the Sesqui deficit might be traced to the Vare slush fund.

I made lately a long wished visit to the birthplace of Daniel Webster, tak- ing time freely, securing many photo- graphs, and only leaving as the deep- ening shadows faded into the evening twilight of a cloudless sky. It seemed on parting from the little stretch of brookside and meadow hidden so far back amongst the wooded hills that one trod that historic sward but light- ly. There was, some elusive rustling time seemed dissolved into some airy continuity stretching backward to old- en days, and forward into the un- wrought, the unseen future. Then | filmy outlines of human forms of a . surpassing dignity weaved swiftly in- to view about the landscape, down along the brook, and over the meadow. The outlines of those resolute beings, ' those faces so firm of mien and filled with purpose, were clear and sharp. Those vivid though filmy forms were not illusory. They were in reality the shadows left by mighty souls of other | years as they toiled and moved about in life, meeting as best they could the necessities of life, and facing within their light as they had to, its eternal riddle.
