They bare totter.M from their throne", fallen into oblirinn aided in their journey to the deepet and blaeUct pit by lccriiic. Miifty-pytl gambler" A pit.lKT. one ho lia In-en looked upon with respect by the imith of America, one who ha done faithful ervire for car and uhoe integrity never has been questioned, admitted before the grand jury in Chicago yesterday that he a a crook deliberately cheated in the world srric. !at year and then broke down and cried. There i nothin: pathetic about that. IMdio Cieotte. considered one of the bet pitchers in baseball, burst into tear ATTKK. and not before, he was caught. Scenes like that can bo witnecl any day at the City Hall hen pickpocket-, safeblower-. highwaymen and murderers are confronted ith evidence which cannot be denied. An outfielder, a man whoe natural ability as a player placed him head and shoulders over the others; a man who commanded a high salary for his service-: a man who also was respected anil admired for his prowess on the diamond, told the same tale of sordid crookedness. Joe Jackson every red-blooded ball fan in the world knows him also hed a few tears and brazenly announced "that he was going straight from now on." So arc felons after being i-.im ii-t by n jury and ent to prison. They "go traiglu" from then on becaue they can't help themselves. These two ball players have "peached. " to use the alang of the underworld, and raised the curtain on the fllthiet scandal in the history of sports. After conclu ilve proof had been furnished by James C. lijmlnger, one of our best sports writers. Cieotte and Jackson hur ried to the juryroom, begged to be allowed to confess and implicated ix other members of the Chicago White Sox club. After almost one year of eilencc they 'squealed."' not because their consciences troubled them, but because they saw a chance to save themselves by implicating there. THEIR spirit of self-sacrifice is almost pathetic. Like the lowest scum of the slums, they are looking for sympathy, after turnina on those lehn lettered in them, trusted them and. as a rrieard, sinking a knife into their larks. Players Arc Pikers Compared to Gamblers THK world scries of lfUfi was crooked a hollow sham. According to Cieotte and Jackson, six other player. Oscar Telsch. Swede Uisberg. Claude Williams. Fred McMulliii. Chick (iandil and Iluck Weaver, conspired to "throw" th"- same, to Cincinnati. The.v were paid for it. but. aii'nrding to icpnrt-. they wore pikers. The gam blers cleaned up hundreds of thousands of dollars, while the ba-eball burglar- recited a few paltry thouund. What a mockery tho-e "championship" games appear to be now. after the penetrating light has been thrown upon them ! How the loyal fan- mut feel those who stood in line all night for an opportunity to see a ball game which had been "fixed" several day- before! Crookedness? That word is too mi'tl to apply in this case. A gigantii swindle perpetrated upon 'JT.0,512 spectators who paid ST'J'-'.-tl 1 so that part of !?2C0..11,J tould he divided among these self-confe-scd criminnls. It too. alniot a year to get at the truth. Tor h long time it was rumored that these suspected players had been In the pay of the gamblers, but it was hoped by every one that the charge- were untrue. The ball players were given the benefit of the doubt. N'o accusations were made bc ) cause of ihc stranx silence on the part of the officials of , the American T.eague. Surely nn organization which represent- millions would protect it-elf from dishonest players who. for their own selfish de-ires, would wreck the entire structure of big league baseball. It was up to the officials, but they thought more of fighting among them-clves than clearing up a digusting scandal. f)r7 tlirmsrlies unable to opc irith the lif tiaftoii. thru railed in the grand jury, and at latt I'lmethiiig will he done. Expose Is Shocking Blow TO ONK wbo loes baseball, this expose comes a a spinning h'n . It-- hard to believe that a nntiontl aport was not played on the level, but you can't dodge behind the fart Right men attempted to de-troy what thousand- bail b.jilt up for years, and it i- to be ferventiy hoped that they will get their ju-t deserts. There were rumors in Cincinnati on the very first day that the enrs had been "fixed" lor Cincinnati to win. fiamblers were wagering huge sums that Cieotte would not finish the game. The names of tux players on the Chicago elnh were mentioned, and that they were to re. ehe J'Jimi.iiOO for their irooked work. Rut nobody believed these stories. Wild tales like those nre .pruiig befi.re omt.v big sporting eent. and on" onn become n-ei to them. "Anvway " the nonbelierers said, "how could a world nrs be 'filed'' Also, how rould the gamblers get six players 10 on the deal? It can't be done. If one or two were bribed, it ould be different, but you can't get a gang like that to t'jrn i rooked. Somebody would fall down Hy ROI1KKT V. MAXWKLL -ports Killtnr Klrnlns rubllr I.fdmr on the job, confess and It would be all over. Those stories are being circulated to affect the betting. After the first game and Cieotte had been knocked out of the box. lMdic was not blamed. The fans pitied him. believing he had overworked himself during the regular -.el-oil. winning the pennant for Chicago. "It was a sad day for Kddie Cieotte. leading pitcher of the junior major league." said one report. "Never before was so decisive a beating administered to the Michigan wonder. He was simply pounded out of the box Five runs were recorded against him in the fourth before Manager Gleason gave him the sign to retire. His team mnte.s gathered nroitud him and patted him encouragingly on the back, but lie walked from the diamond with his head hanging." What a waste of words I Cieotte probably Svas told he was getting well paid for the work he had done and to do it ngaiu the next time. ' TIT EX came Claude William, icho also has heen aecused. This pitcher lost his name by the score nf to 2, and if he did it purposely he is a maslei, because he fooled everybody. i'o Punishment Too Severe I WAS talking to one of the umpires in the series re cently and nsked him about Williams's work in the second game. This arbiter is one of the most efficient, honest men in the Rportlug world, and his decisions are so fair that all bull players are his friends. "I have heard many things since the series." he -aid, "and believe now that crooked work was done. SI ill. it is only a belief. Judging from the incriminating evi dence. Williams was one of the offenders, and if this is true no punishment is too severe for him. 'However, the attitude I am forced to take, and to be perfectly honest with myself and not defend Williams in any ,way. I must say he pitched perfect ball in the sec ond 'game of the scries. "I have worked behind him many times and know his style. Lefty's success is due to his excellent control. He works the corners of the plate that is, he cither throws on the inside or the ouUidc, according to the weakness of the hitter. Never does he put the ball over the center. "In this game he walked three men in one inning, and in each case the balls never were more than six inches away from the plate. He seemed to be having hard luck, but that was all. There were no wild pitches and not one pitch was above the shoulders or below the knees. In fact, he didn't pitch a bad ball in the entire game. "A triple by Kopf scored the first runs, nnd later in the game a base on balls and a hit scored the other. Williams allowed four hit-, two of them -cratches. , "Now that I think of it. Felsch's work was pretty raw in the field, nnd. in the last game. Jack-on stood with, his bat on his shoulder nnd allowed himself to be called out mi strikes when the baes were filled. Later, when Cinciunati was nway ahead, he hit n homer. I Tmim t look so ROMANTIC OR TtCGM OR 3ovCTHIMC Irt THlS ONC, IT S SO 50OCFU Of This is anothbb .Snapshot taken LAST WINTGr.

Comiskcy Wrecks Ball Club CIIAUUCS COMISKKY. now a broken-down old man, ha- wrecked his ball club, ruined till chances of win ning the pennant by indefinitely suspending the eight plaiers. It was the only thing he could have done, despite the tremendous monetary loss. The alleged crooks cannot be replaced with honest players of the -nine ability for n fortune. Hundreds of thousands of dollars couldn't do it. according to the present price of athletes. Still, it had to coine. During the s-ason there was much ill-feeling on the ball club. The hnne-t players, it is said, would have nothing to do with the suspects, for they were positive of their crooked work in the series. Many times they almost came to blows, and it is reported that Ilaj Schnlk nlmo-t killed one of the pitchers iu a clubhouse battle. For that rea-on the White Sox never were considered hcriouhlr as pennant contenders. The honest players, like Kddie and John Collins, Schalk, Kddie Murphy. Keibold, Kerr. Taber and the others, distrusted the crooks. They never knew when a ball game would be won or lost, nnd it wns di-couraging to see a game tossed away, after a lead had been obtained. Jean I'. Mervino. manager of the football team at the Palmyra High School, has nrranged many of his games i but there are a few open dates for man agers who have not yet completed their schedules, und he would like to hear I from them.

Shields made this announcement today just previous to his departure for his home in' West Chester. The stocky nine and White milcr says he will hang up his shoes, nnd devote all of his time to business. Although he would have received his diploma next Juno, the business offer that he received was too attractive to pass up, according to the Olympic star, who, together with Harold K.

To a Crippled Doughboy (On crutches, watching the crowd) Deep in your soul I can read One burning thought that Is set "They have forgotten to long . too, would like to forget; Yes, I would like to forget All that has happened to trie, Voir but the remnant and shell Of the man that I started to be." Xo one remembers you note; They have forgotten and yet Soma day before the trail ends T!ach will remember his debt; l'ach will remember his debt, Lifting "Fame's cup to the brave" ; Uut you will not rise to the toast Except as a ghost from the grave. Why the Delay? rplIH grand jury Investigation of thrown games iu baseball is some thing the national commission should have taken up long before this if there had been a national commission. Rut without n chairman or with out a directing head there has been no national commission to protect the in terests of the game. William Vceck, president of the Chi cago Cubs, has rendered a biff service by tossing the entire smear out into the open, rather than attempting to keep it nil hidden under cover, as most of the oincrs nave done. Now that the stew is dragged out into the open, tho investigation should not only be complete, but tho punishment awarded should be the most drastic ever known the limit, whatever tho limit is. For if the public once makes up its mind that even n small nnrt nf hnsehnll is crooked the entire game might ns well dc cnucKcu into uie sewer so far as continued patronage in any large num bers is concerned.

SUCCESSFUL and satisfactory Golf depends, in a measure, on muscle freedom. You can get no kind of Highland swing inside of a straight jacket. Our Golf Coats are so made that' you're scarcely conscious of having them on your back. We've left out the stiffening used in work-a-day clothes to make the coat in all parts pliable as a handkerchief. Cloth tabs, too, at the neck. Suits with Long Trousers or Knickers, or with both; making possible a Sports Suit for business, and a Golf Suit for the Game. COAT AND LONG TROUSERS, OR COAT AND KNICKERS $40, $45, $50, $60 Extra Pair of Trousers to match $9, $10 Separate Knickers Special at $7.50. Made from, high-grade woolens that we got below the market. Grays, russets, browns, greenish blues with Jarge ovcrplaid. PERRY&:CO. FIJIIIIIIIiQ!
