ISLANDERS WALLOP SYRACUSE TWICE-SEASON ENDS-DOUBLE HONORS FOR EVANS
WmiAMSTOWNIS
AGAIN CHAMPION
Clinch Flag on Saturday;
Marysville Forfeits to Dau
phin; Amateur Scores
Williamstown's .victory over Tre-
Mont on Saturday, score 5 to 3, with
Lykens defeated by Tower City, score
5 to 3, brought the championship to
Williamstown without any further ar
gument. This is the second time Wil
liamstown has landed the flag. It
was a great fight all seaSon, Lykens
holding the lead at intervals.
Marysville, winners of the Dauphin-
Perry league contest, did not report
at Dauphin on Saturday, and the lat
ter won by forfeit. The refusal on the
part of the Marysville management to
play out the schedule brought severe
criticism from Dauphin patrons. Two
games were played. Millersburg shut
out Halifax, score 1 to 0. Kerr pitched
a good game, allowing but four scat
tered hits. Newport nosed out a vic
tory over Duncannon, score 8 to 7.
There were several good amateur
games. West End lost an eleven-in
ning game to Palmyra, score -> to 4.
Miller pitched good ball, but was out
classed by Hess who fanned thirteen.
Harris Park won over New Cumber
land, score 11 to 4, and Keener A. C.
had an easy time taking a game from
the Lucknow Shop League team,
score 14 to 2. Magill pitched for the
Keeners and fanned eighteen men.

TO REDEEM WAR STAMPS
Government Will Redeem Those Not
Used
Those annoying Wilson war tax
stamps disappeared to-day. On all
things except wines and liquors no
stamps were needed after midnight
last Friday.
Stamps are no longer required for
documentary or proprietary business.
This Includes legal papers, telephone
and telegraph messages which re
quired a one cent stamp each, and ex
press and freight packages.
According to Deputy Revenue Col
lector A. B. Gardner, he did not have
a large supply of war tax stamps on
hand. He anticipated the passage of
a bill eliminating the special war tax,
and did not order additional supplies.
Collector Gardner said:
"All unused stamps will be re
deemed. I-low or when, 1 cannot say.
They may have to be sent to Lan
caster. X understand a blank form
providing for the redemption of war
stamps will be here in a few days."
Will Inquire Into Shelling
of American Legation by
French During Bombardment
Washington, Sept. 11. lnquiry
will be made of the French govern
ment regarding circumstances of the
bombardment September 4 by a
French fleet of Alexandretta, Asiatic
Turkey, during which the building oc
cupied by William M. Brewster, of
New York, American consular agent,
was riddled. Officials said to-day that
the State Department would ask
whether the shelling of the building
was a result of carelessness.
Three French auxiliary cruisers
and two torpedo boats comprised the
bombarding fleet, .according to a re
port to the department to-day from
the American embassy at Constantin
ople. Nino shells struck the building
occupied by Brewster, doing about
one thousand lira worth of damage.
Brewster merely is employed to for
ward consular information, work
formerly done by a Turkish citizen
and as the equipment furnished him
by the United States cost only a few
hundred dollars, no claim for damages
will be filed by the department ,
"CHICK" EVANS IS
GOLF CHAMPION
First Man in America to Cap

i ert A Gardner, of the Hinsdale Golf
Club, of Chicago, winner of the 1915

feat without parallel in the annals of
( the game in tills country. He won the
national open title and the national
amateur championship. The score was
1 I up and 3 to play.
In beating Gardner. Evans was forced
to play below par golf at times.
"Chick" played consistently through
out the entire match, his putting being
unusually good for him. His drives
from the tees were long and accurate.
In twenty-two years of champion
ship tournaments in America no man

open and the national amateur crowds.

HARRISBURG TELEGRAPH
By COL. BOGEY
The caddies are coming into their
own at Reservoir and the Colonial
Club. Tournaments are being ar
ranged for them at both courses In
the near future and if a few "Bobby"
Joneses or Francis Ouimets aren't dis
covered, it will be because of stage
fright and not lack o£ ability.
A well-known golfer of this city re
cently made the record score on num
ber 5 at the Harrisburg Country Club.
Five is a short hole and usually played
with a mashle. His first shot went
into the cornfield, his second into the
road beyond the green and his third
plumped into the hole from the tee.
Sam Nissley and Fred Harry were
playing out at the Colonial Club for
a dinner on a recent occasion. The
match was even up to the sixteenth
hole, and both got perfect drives from
the eighteenth tee. The hole is 600
yards long, a par five. Nissley got a
lour and Harry missed a three by two
inches.
The opinion that golf is an old
man's game has passed into the dis
card. Elderly gentlemen in large num
bers play golf as their only form of
exercise, but young men by the thou
sands have made it their hobby. The
youngsters are the champions. Rob-
T Jones, Jr., of Atlanta, who made
'Hob ' Gardner, twice national cham
pion, go to the thirty-third green to
defeat him at Merion last week, is an
example. And there are many more
just like him.
The Round Robin Golf Tournament
scheduled at the Colonial Country
Club for next week promises to arouse
niueh interest among the members.
There will be no elimination and each
entrant will play at least five matches
lor a prize with nien of his own cali
ber. Total number of holes up will
decide the winner of each group.
Leaders in the season handicap
tournament at Reservoir are W. D.
Meikle and C. E. Zimmerman.
The preliminary match rounds were
finished to-day in the Fred B. Harry
cup event. Second round matches
must be finished by Saturday evening,
I September lti. Thirty-two players are
now left; by Monday, Sept. 18, the
number will be reduced to sixteen
when the interesting part of the tour
nament will begin as the field narrows
down toward the semifinals.
DUNDEE HEADY I'OR TO-NIGHT
Kansas City. Mo., Sept. 11.—Light
workouts yesterday put the finishing
touches on the training schedules of
Johnny Dundee and Ever Hammer,
lightweights and the two fighters
were resting to-day in preparation for
their 15-round match to-night. The
winner it is believed, will get a match
with Freddie Welsh, lightweight cham
pion.
TO TAKE BODY TO NEW YORK
Glenn Stoddard, of Xlion, N. Y., and
Athen Stoddard, of Dayton, Ohio, ar
rived in this city on Saturday and
obtained permission from Coroner
Eckinger to remove the body of their
father, D. W. Stoddard, to llion for
burial. The body was found August
13 in the mountains near Rockville.

TWO FROM STARS
FINAL OFFERING
No Plans For Next Season;
Manager Cockill Signs Up
Young Players
New York State League baseball in
Harrisburg came to an end Saturday.
The Islanders as a closing offering
walloped the Syracuse Stars twice.
The first game was 4 to 2, and the
second 2 to 0. Both were pitching
duels in which the local twirlers ex
celled. There was sensational field
ing, and hits by Harrisburg were
timely.
The majority of the players have
left the city. Manager George Cockill
and Walter Blair went to their homes.
Both will return later when definite
plans for next season will be an
nounced. That there will be league
baseball is not denied but who will
furnish It depends on the organization
of a new association.
Manager George Cockill Is sending
out contracts to promising youngsters
and has some good material tied up
for next season. He said on Saturday
that in his opinion next season would
offer big inducements for league base
-1 ball, and that if Harrisburg wanted
| good sport it would have to come
| through an association.

of the opinion that it will take the
last games at home to win the flag;
and Manager Pat Moran savs his team
is playing the best ball and will win
out.
Detroit hopes to take the lead in
the western series and hold it until
the finish. The Tigers have been
playing gceat baseball, but slip up
occasionally. Boston is still a strong
contender.

dominated by political expediency."
Mr. Pincliot's statement of belief
was as follows:
"It is the duty of every American
citizen to make and support openly his
choice among the candidates for the
presidency. That duty is especially
solemn this year because great events
and great decisions are certain to con
front us during the next adminis
tration.
"For many months after his inaugu
ration 1 thought well of President Wil
son. In many respects 1 liked what he
said about what he was going to do.
He talked well and made a good im
pression. It was only when I began to
check up what he said by what he did
that I was forced to change my view.
"In the end I came to see that Presi
dent Wilson has a greater power than
any other man in public life to say one
thing, but do another, and get away
with it.
"The facts which justify this state
ment are common knowledge. We all
know of his changes in attitude in the
Lusitania affair, intervention in Mex
ico, national defense and a greater
navy, and exempting our coastwise
trade from tolls in the Panama canal.
"We have seen him elected on a
platform which pledged him to a single
term as President and then he be
comes a candidate for another term.
"We have all heard him declare for
the conservatism of our national re
sources and have seen him neglect that
policy.

Howard Ehmke, star pitcher on the
Syracuse team has joined the Tigers.
He may pitch during the present -wes
tern series. His work in the New
York State League record has been A
of a high standard.
Two games were played pesterday
in the New York State League. El
mira won over Wilkes-Barre, score 5
to 3. This gives the Colonels a nine
point lead over Harrisburg. Syracuse

from Utica, score 10 to 1.
Baseball fans who have been clam
oring for exhibition games with major
league teams are disappointed. They
alone are to blame. The patronage
during the last week at Island Park
was not sufficient to meet expenses.
Manager George Cockill was of the
opinion that'baseball interest had fal
len too far below the standard to
take any chances with special games.
Some of special interest in a base
ball game is promised for next Satur
day when Rosewood, champions of
the Allison Hill League will meet an
all-star team on Island Park field. Har
risburg fans who have been anxious
to see local youngsters work will get
an opportunity in this game. Play
ers on the two teams represent the
amateur stars of the city. Practice
for this game will continue through
out the week.
efficiency in government and have seen
him set the pork barrel first and throw
efficiency away.
"We have all heard him announce
himself as the champion of civil serv
ice reform and have seen hiifl turn the
government departments over to the
spoilsmen as no other President has
done in twenty years.
"We have all heard him declare fop
pitiless publicity, and have seen him
conduct the most secret administration
of our times.
Will Not "Stay Put"
"These facts and many others like
them have forced me to see that what
Mr. Wilson says is no sign of what he
has done, or of what he will do. The
one thing his record shows is that what, a
he stands for now he is not likely to
stand for long.
"Hughes, on the other hand, is a
man of his word. His record as Gov
ernor of New York proved that. It
showed him to be honest, fearless and
free from the domination of splints
and corrupt politicians. So far as the
conservation policies are concerned,
both what he said and what he did
could hardly have been better. I'am
confident that under him these policies
will be safe. He is a strong man who
will dodge no moral issues and he will
give us an honest and efficient admin
istration.
"As a Progressive. I believe in na
tionalism. So does Hughes. 1 am cer
tain that under Hughes the Progres
sive policies will fare better than under
Wilson and that the safety, honor and
welfare of the country will be in im
measurably surer hands.
"I cannot vote for Wilson because
I cannot trust him. He does not do
what he says. Hughes does. There
fore. my choice is Hughes and I shall
work and vote for him."
