Boston. Mass.. Oct. 12. —The Boston
Red Sox tightened their hold on the
world's championship pennant to-day
when the Phillies were taken into
camp for the third time. Score, 2to 1.
It was a pitching battle from start to
finish between Chalmers and Shore,
and the latter, who appeared for the
second time in the series, was just a
shade better than his opponent. To
day was a holiday here and the field
was packed with spectators. The Red
Sox need only take to-morrow's game
to win the championship.
By Associated Press
Boston. Mass., Oct. 12.—The statute
l-.ooks of Massachusetts name October
12 as a legal holiday in memory of
the discovery of America. Unwritten
law in Boston stamped the day this
year as a holiday in honor of the
world series baseball contenders. An-
other tremendous crowd thronged the
approaches to Braves Field for the
fourth game of the title test between
the Red Sox and the Phillies and
countless thousands hail no other plan ;
for the day than to be where they I
coitld follow the play.
The crowd early assumed propor
tions greater than that of the morning
hours yesterday. The bright sun and
the weather vane pointing to the south
promised even more comfortable
weather than that in which the third
game was played.
Money for Players
Sight of the great lines of men and
boys stretching out from the entrances
to Braves Field was a pleasing pros
pect to the players as they went to
their dressing rooms this morning. It
was the last game in which they were
tc share in the proceeds, the national
commission rules limiting players' par
ticipation to four games.
It was believed that to-day's spec
tator army would not be less than
that of yesterday, which numbered
42,300 paid admissions, the receipt?
totaling $83,191. In each case these
figures constituted new additions to
world series and other baseball rec
ords. Figuring from such a basis for
to-day's game, members of the team
which wins the series will receive
about $3,700 each. The losers' share
individually will mount to about
$2,500. One or two previous series
have resulted in greater returns to the
players, the lack of space in the Phila
delphia park being too great to be off
set by the record receipts at Braves
Field.

the Victoria theater, made that state
ment to-day In discussing the opinion
of the Superior court which reversed
the Dauphin county court's attitude

Nearly three years ago Athens
George, proprietor of the Victoria, set
aside the balcony of his theater for
the exclusive use of negro patrons,
provided cards indicating where the
seats could be found, and printed In
structions to the patrons when they
purchased their admission, explaining
where they could sit.
The Test Case
Three men made a test case of the
incident and George was arrested and
fined SSO by Additional Law Judge S.
J. M. McCarrell for violating the civil
rights acts of 1887. George asked for
a new trial and was refused whereupon
he appealed to the Superior court.
