RABID IN SUPPORTING
CONNIE MACK ETAL.
Those Disinterested When
Team Tumbled All Before
It, Become Fervent Sup
porters. MUSK
Fickle fnndom rushed through Us work
In Philadelphia today prepaiatory to a
descent nn score boards throughout the
city this afternoon to follow, play by play,
the effort of the aroused Athletics to
crush Boston's Braves. The same fans
who Rave little or no support to the
Mauling Mackmen when the team was
tumbling all before It In the American
League, are today the most rabid sup
porters of Connie Mack et at.
Few l'hlladclphlans seem to doubt that
the Mackmen will oppose the 13ravo3
again In this city. Confidence In the hit
ting power of the Athletics seems not to
havt. suffered at all from the two de
cisive defeats administered the team.
Should Boston take two more games, It
will furnish the biggest Jar of the year 10
local fandom. Kven a goodly proportion
of Boston's followers do not expect to see
their team win without the loss of a
game.
Hundreds of Phlladelphlans hurriedly
flxed up business affairs last night and
rushed out of the city New Englandward
to see the game today. The home dele
gation at Fenway Park will be fully as
large as was that of the Boston Royal
footers In this city Friday and Saturday.
If the Mackmen justify the contldcnco
of thii fans In their prowess by winning
but one of the two games scheduled to
be nlhyed In Boston, the crowd that
etorris Shlbe Park next Wednesday should
brtak all records. Bleacherltes probably
Will start to line up Tuesday afternoon,
fit by that time the race Is not ended.
f Philadelphia, unlike Xew York, Is un
fortunate In defeat. Its sporting writers
nnd fans know little or nothing of alibi.
The consensus of opinion Is that Boston
won by better pitching and better play
ing. There has been sonw criticism of
the umpiring, especially In the second
name, but this has been aside. Few
would say that the White Elephant could
have won had the few close decisions been
recorded differently.
TIU BUTE TO SPORTSMANSHIP.
New York, on the other hand, ! the
home of the alibi. Even' player on the
Giants keeps a prl-ate library on this
subject. After the most crushing defeat,
the New York sporting wrlteis are able
to feed a line of dope to the fans that
convinces all Manhattan of Us team's
superiority. Philadelphia might have Im
ported Mathewson and a few other ex
pert allblers to explain that the Mack
men, although loser, really were victori
ous. That it did not is the greatest tribute
ever paid to its sportsmanship.
Small fortunes changed hands at both
of the two games la-it week, but they
will not be a drop In the bucket compared
to Boston's loss today c-hould the Mack
men take the game. Odd? of thre'e to one
are aid to be prevailing in Boston on
the Braves. Phlladelphtans who diligent
ly nought two to one in this city today
had difficulty finding it. Professional
ramblers with faith In the batting ability
or Mack's tam also nought it -bout the
hotels, but in vain. If the Mackmen win
todav Boston gamblers will lose all they
marie'on the first two games.
Stocks and bonds were being shoved
sslde even on their slave, the ticker, this
morning Baseball Is the order or the
day. All Philadelphia is turning Its eyes
to Boston and most or the fans are pin
ring their faith on the Athletics. Dyed-in-the-wool
enthusiasts, who have no fa
vorites and who could not get to Bos
ton, want the Elephant to win one of
the two games there If only to give
them another chance to see the two
teams In action here.
CONWELL RIDICULES FASHION
Gays Modern Styles Are "Monkeyish,
Foolish and Sinful,"
"Slonk.vlsh, foolish and sinful." was
the way Dr. Russell H. Conwell. president
of Temple Vntverdlty, described the ex
tremes In present-day fashions In the
Tlaptln Temple. Broad and Berks streets,
last night
"God doosn t disapprove or rasnionanie
attire." said Honor Conwell. "It is In
accordance with the Scriptures when a
woman, In decency, affects the latest
styles. We are enjoined to be clean, and
i we are obeying this Injunction when we
wear the latest in attire It Is not right
Inr critics to denounce women who are
fashionably dressed as foolish: they would
be foolish. Indeed. If they appeared In
costumes of a hundred vears back
"But when the bounds of decency and
morality are overstepped, as they are by
some of the freakish creations. God does
disapprove."
Doctor Conwell urged that women not
only be faithful to their homes and fami
lies, but that they also give some real
tervlce to the world besides.
"Women should have a purpose In life
larger than the four walls of her home,"
he said. "Her children should be the
thousands of little ones who need help.
God expecjtB us to perform our dally tasks
completely, but He also requires that we
do more, that we have a broad purpose
aimed at our fellows."
IF THE CHICKENS ABE THERE
Sam Vickers, an old South Carolina
V Negro, had helped hlmtelf to some o(
a white neighbor s chickens. The owner
traed the theft to blm. however, and
brought him to account.
"Look here. Sam." he said, "I don't

COOLER WEATHER COMING
This is the Prediction of Weather
man in This City.
Cooler weather is coming, ncording to
Weatherman Bliss, and the high baro
metric pressures along the Atlantic Coast
that liavo caused the six-weeks drought
In this section are lowering. Rain mav
come In a few days, but there is no sign
of It at present.
Tho unusual high temperatures that pre
vailed here the latter part of hint week,
wero due to southerly winds which,
under ordinary conditions would huvo
been accompanied by rain.
"Nine times out or ten."-said Mr. Bliss,
"the rain that prevailed In the central
States last week would have reached us.
The pressure here, however, was too high
and the rain did not cross the Allegheny
Mountains. The same winds that drove
the storm northward bt ought us nn ac
cumulated excess of heat of TO degrees."
The maximum temperature of 5 degrees
made Saturday the warmest October 10
ever recorded in this city. The previous
high reading was S4 degrees on October
10. 1S79
Excess of temperatures have prevailed
here daily this month except on tho 1st.
2d and 7th. when the temperatures were
almost normal. The mercury yesterday
ranged between 6S and 51 degrees. This
maximum was within one degree of the
record for October 11, observed in 1M4.
Mr. Bliss denied that the prediction of
the baseball fans were entirely respons
ible for the heat In the air.

Thirteen members of the Philadelphia I
police force own automobiles. A Phila

A policeman la so thrifty. It Is said,
that ho does not go to lunch, go to get a

until ho sees a filond starting on the

Captain Cameron, or the Detective
Bureau, bought a touring car a few
weeks ago. It Is true he bought It nt a
second-hand snleshouse, hut then ho got
a new car and he got a speedy wagon for
the money. Tho salesman had met the
Captnln several times before.

HUSBAND WHO DELIGHTED
TO BREAK FURNITURE HELD
Wife Says Spouse Assaulted Her and
Attacked Neighbor.
Every time that Joseph Hamel gets
angry he smashes n piece of furniture.
His wife said this morning that a piano
and a bureau were the only things left
In their homo at 61S Pallas street. She
declared that the crashing nolso made by
largo glass dishes and porcelain vases
gave her husband especial delight when
he was In the midst of his temper. These
and other woes she unfolded before
Magistrate Boyle at the Kith street and
Lancaster avenuo police station, whither
her husband was brought for a hearing
this morning, accused of attacking his
wife and a neighbor, Ralph O'Dalr, who
tried to protect her. Like all peace
makers O'Dalr got little eatlsfactlon. and
tho only thing he received from Hamel
was two black eyes. Hnmcl's fight thii
morning was different from previous bat
ties at his home. This time it was a
sort of marathon affair beginning at his
home, shifting to Q'Dalr's house, where
his wife ran for help, and then back to
the, Hamel house.
A large crowd of neighbors and passers
by witnessed the triangular fight. It was
their shouts which attracted policeman
Felton- He chased the three combatants
from one house to tha other, and. during
the run, learned that Hamel was the real
offender By executing a flank move
ment, he got Hamel In the vewtlble of his
home and held the door. When the rront
door opened there was a patrol waiting
outside and Hamel was taken away amid
cheers. He said he was very sorry at the
station house But the Magistrate told
the prUoner he was a little tardy with
his apologies and held him In fKwl ball
for court.

DETECTIVES BELIEVE
MISSING NURSE GIRL
MAY BE UNBALANCED
At Work on Theory That
She Has Weakened Men

from her placo of employment at the
home of Herbert Whltehcnd, ES30 Carpen
ter street, last Tuesday, may havo be
come mentally unbalanced, is being
worked out today by detectives assigned
to tho case by Captain Cameron.
Tho detectives now believe tho girl may
have -wandered away and lost all tense of
direction. They advanco the suggestion
that he Is still wandering nlmlosMy
about the city. A full description of Miss
Qulgg has been sent to every police dis
trict and all patrolmen havo been In
structed to bo on tho lookout for her.
Mrs. J. Hampton Moore, wife of the
Philadelphia Congressman, who knows
the girl's family and is closely following
tho search for her, gavo out a stutement
today that supports this latest theory of
Insanity. She declares the mother of tho
missing girl has been In Trenton Asylum
for the lusauo for some years.
Mr. and Mrs. Robert Qulgg. the parents
of the girl, separated a number of years
ago. Their home was at Doylcstown,

elLctcd as a icsult of tho fusion move

of these must bo Republican, the ma
jority party. Tho other five will ba
divided between tho AVnshlngton and tho
Democratic parties, the number of which
each party receives being determined by
the comparative voto polled by each In
the election this year.

candidates In the Meld nnd try to obtain
tho nominations of whatever number will
be credited to the Democratic party.
