Philadelphia, Oct. 7.—The Boston
Braves, champions of the National
League, are in this city preparing for
the opening of the world's series here
on Friday, when they meet the Phila
delphia Athletics, winners of the
American League race. The Bos
tonians, who ended their National
league schedule in Brooklyn yester- j
day, planned a light practice th.'s
morning on the National League
grounds, while the present world's
champions expect to work out at Shibe
Park, where the first two games of the
series will be staged.
The National League players will
get an eye on their opponents when
they view the contest between the
Athletics and New York in the fare
well game of the American League
schedule here to-day.
Neither of tiie opposing managers
had indicated who will be his pitching
selection for the opening game, but
the majority of the. critics believe that
Bender, the veteran Indian twirler,
will lie Connie Mack's selection, and
that he will opposed by James, who,
they figure, is the best find of the Bos
ton moundsmen to repeat during the
short series if necessary.
The long line of men that has
waited for the opening of the sale of
tickets at 9 o'clock to-day presented a
sorry spectacle at daybreak. Many of
them had been In line for forty-eight
hours, snatching only what sleep they
COilld by resting on soap boxes, camp
stools and chairs.

Harley-Davidson Model
Has Eleven Horsepower
"During the thirteen years that we
have been engaged in the inanufac- j
tare of motorcycles we never have in- ;
traduced ;t more important improve- |
ment than the three-speed," said Wal- i
ter Davidson, president of the Harley- j
Davidson Motor Company, Milwaukee,
Wis. "I consider this the greatest |
achievement of William S. Harley, our
chief engineer.
"The 1915 twin cylinder motor,
rated at 11 horsepower, develops!
nearly double the horsepower of our i
1914 motors. With the three-speed \
Harley-Davidson it is possible to go j
anywhere that traction can be oh- j
tained. on high speed the gear ratio!
is 3.8!) to 1. For good, smooth roads .
this gear is ideal. ! 1
"The intermediate gear provides a| !
ratio of 5.8" to 1 for traveling in con
gested traffic in the cities and over j
rough country roads. This gear can j 1
be used constantly, if required. Every j
motorcyclist can appreciate the suit-;
ability of this gear, especially when 1 1
the motorcycle is used with a sidecar, j '
"On low gear, 8.75 to 1, the 1915 j '
three-speed will go anywhere. The j
1915 machine climbs hills as steep as ;
60 per cent. There are till improve- I •
mental <m the three-speed model alone, j
Great credit must lie given to Mr. liar- I
ley for his invention of the first me- j '
chanloal oil pump capable of feeding I
oil at all speeds without any check
or ball valves.
"All 1915 models are equipped with i
the well-known step-starter, which |
makes it possible to start the motor; -
with both wheels on the ground and
with either pedal. This device is posi- I .
tive in action. It starts the motor j
without fail.

this morning and incidentally put into
practice for the first time the theory
that vagrants, etc., should be required
to do some regular mun-sized labor to
pay for board and keep.
The two men were arrested yester
day by the police and were committed
in charge of Steward S. F. Barber.

the unfinished product stage awaited

Assessors to be l*aid N>- -Following
a discussion of plans for the Novem
ber election to-day the County Com
missioners announced that assessors
in city and county who sit with the
! election boards at the general election

$1 per day instead of $2.50, as had
been allowed heretofore by custom.
When the county's bill for the Spring
primaries was sent to the State in or
der that the county could be. reim
bursed for the primary election ex
| penditures the bill included emoiu
i nient for the assessors at the rate of
I $2.50 apiece. This was refused by the
I Auditor General's department, which
| called attention to the fact that the
| act of July, 1 839. provided that as
sessors shall sit at general and special
elections and shall be compensated at
the rate of $1 per day. Nothing was
specified as to primaries. Conse
quently. only $1 was allowed the as
sessors last Spring, and it was decided
by Colonel F. M. Ott, county solicitor,
after investigation at the suggestion of
the commissioners, that Dauphin could
pay but $1 per assessor at the coming
election.

Powell Is Probing
Commission Expenditures
In an interview this afternoon
Auditor General Powell stated that
his department was carefully probing
the expenses of various State commis
sions and declared that the State could
save much money by employing its
own architects, engineer and drafts
men in construction of public works.
He declined to go into any details, but
intimated very strongly that bills for
the services of such experts would he
scrutinized and if found to be too
high would be cut down.
Regarding the alleged excessive ex
penditures of the Panama Exposition
Commission, he stated that he had not |
yet started to investigate these bills;
that they had been held up in the ac
counting bureau.
lie said, however, that this was
only one of many commissions whose
accounts were being scrutinized care
fulty and that contingent funds were
;ilso being looked over. He said the
State crealed too many commissions
whose duties could be better handled
by the regular State officers and em
ployes. lie mentioned especially
architects, draftsmen and engineers.
He didn't want anybody to think, how
ever, that this is a 'ham sandwich
administration."
