The Old Tan's Wish
Say Bill, If I but had my wish,
It wouldn't be to swim or fish.
Or grab a bale of coin or fame—
But. say, I'd love to lamp a game
With them old Cubs back, If I could —
I mean the ones now gone for good.
I'd like to look on Miner Brown,
With that old.hook still breaking down,
Leaving the old boy's mighty wing
And thudding in the mitt of Kllng;
With Stelny shooting one across
With smoke enough to kill a hoss, .
With P. L. Chance still on the job
To kill a hit or block a Cobb—
t With Tinker back at his old place—
The Trojan playing second base..
Two birds? You said a mouthful then—
• We'll never see their like again.
With Circus Sol and Schulte still
Somewhere around to crown the pill.
While Jimmy Sheckard races in
To nip a double oft his shin. .

And some are ntars and some are dubs.

Old and New Giants
An argument developed a day or two ago as to whether or not the
present Giants were the strongest delegation New York ever had to enter
for a world series engagement.
The opinion seemed to be that they were. We doubt it exceedingly, not
to say quite a trifle.
The 1917 Giants are undoubtedly a stronger world series array than
the Giants of 1941, 1912 and 1913, who succumbed in succession to the
Athletics and White Sox, losing three series in a row.
But we'd rather have a small wager on the Giants of 1905 above even
the ball club McGraw has to-day.
With Bresnahan back of the bat—with Matty and McGinity In the
box—with McGann, Gilbert, Dahlen and Devlin—with Mertes, Donlln and
Browne—that looks to be the strongest Giant array of them all.
The present otltlield is stronger than the 1905 bunch —although none
of the Giant outfielders is a Mike Donlin.
The Giant outfield of to-day also has something on the 1905 crops—a
shade, anyway.
But. with all this, there is nothing to make up for that ancient trio—
Matty and McGinity pitching to Roger Bresnahan.
These three, as they were then, were about all that might be required.
All-Sars and World Series
•
"Did it ever occur to you," asks L. R. J., "that of the two world series
clubs who will meet very, very few would be an all-American team? Prov
ing again that it is team play or average strength that counts. The White
Sox would have two all-star entries in Schalk and Collins. The Giants are
without representation, unless Heinle Zimmennann is placed above Groh
and Vitt —and Heinie isn't very far from such placement on his 1917 work.
Herzog's injury and illness have combined to drop him this season from
the all-star array, and neither Burns nor Kauft can very well displace Eddie
Roush.
A Mark to Shoot At
If the forthcoming Gian.ts-Red Sox clash goes to seven games there is
a healthy chance that tho attendance and receipts record of 1912 will bo
broken. . „ , . .
The Giarjs—Red Sox series went to eight games. I-or these eight
gamesr2sl,9ol people paid out $490,449 in admissions. The Polo Grounds
can take care of 40,000 fans; Comiskey's park can handle 35,000. It would
take seven games at an average of 36,000 to beat the 1912 mark.
And with two teams of the Giants-White Sox mould the series Is very
likely to go six games, if not to the entire limit.
They appear to be matched almost in the same way the Tigers'and
Pirates were in 1909. ,
As Hunches Go
"Is this a hunch?" asks R. T. K. "The White Sox world series percent
age in past years is the Giants is .250. How about It?"
Or, as Colonel G. M. Cohan almost wrote: It isn't the percentage you
used to have—it's what you'll have next month."

A Rlgr Mnalcal Comedy Tabloid
I particularly in the northern uector,
| is displaying a fighting spirit aud
j according 10 the official utatements,
is regaining some of the ground re
cently abandoned to the Germans in
I the Riga district. Several villages
| have been occupied probably in a
movement to consolidate the ltus
! sian positions and organize a defen
j sive line which would be cohesive
in case of an attack.
Activity on the other battle fronts
except the Austro-Italian, where
General Cadorna is still lighting de
terminedly for Monte San Gabrielc
is not notable. The Germans are ap
parently more demonstrative in. the
Aisne district on the French front
than elsewhere and Paris to-day re
ports an attack last night on French
positions on the Casentutes plateau.
This was repulsed in hand-tohand
lighting.
Berlin reports an action on the
Aisne front which may be the one
alluded to in the Paris communique.
The German statement character
izes the operation as a raid by
"shock" troops which carried the
raiders to the second French i line
where heavy losses were inflicted
on the French forces.
Again 'the Berlin statement men
tions the artillery tire in Flanders
increasing to the drumfire intensity
which usually heralds ap infantry at
tack. Evidently the Germans ure
expecting such an attack, but they
announce that none has as yet been
delivered.
The German forces have been on
the offensive in one section on the
Flanders front and it is claimed by
Berlin that up to Wednesday night
the British were expelled from the
wooden district north of Dang
marck.
Kerensky May Abolish
Duma; Said to Be
Opposed Democracy
By .Associated Press
i Washington, Sept. 14. . General
Korniloff's punishment seems one of
i the points concerned in the forma
i tion of a new cabinet. Unofficial
I reports reaching hero to-day indi
cate that Premier Kerensky was de
termined to inflict a heavy penalty as
a warning against future uprisings,
but certain elements of the consll
tutlonal democrats and even many
leaders of the Council and Work-
I men's and Soldiers' Delegates, Kev-
I ensky's closest political friends, ad
i voeate leniency.
It is considered probable that an
| early move of the new government
: may be to abolish the Duma which
! has given some evidence of favoring
return to the monarchy and hag op
! posed many democratic reforms of
: the revolution. The Maximalists or
i Bolsheviki, a radical anarchistic
| group, probably will continue to ro
j ceive governmental recognition.

Nonpartisan Foil For
* Democratic Machine
"It iB always tho aim of those who
would accomplish their own political
purposes by misrepresenting the at
titude of others," suid an active
political worker this morning, "to
create an imprtiaslon upon tho public
mind affecting the integrity of their
political opponents. This is particu
larly true in the present primary
contest in this city. Certain Demo
cratic candidates representing the
Democratic machine are endeavor
ing to make the voters believe that
Ruth Anna Loudermlleh, 4 22 Rwatara
the several places to bo tilled on the
nonpartisan ticket are those-of tho
Democratic faith; that the Republic
ans are 'gangsters' and that tho very
foundations of the municipal temple
will be sliukei) unless the particular
individuals bearing the O. K. of the
Democratic njachlne are chosen.
"I am a Republican," said the
same indignant worker, "and I don't
<-are who knows it. It only makes mo
Indignant when I observe the in
sincere tactics of the other side.
Nonpartisanship is all light, per
haps, when It is actually carried Into
practice, but when it is simply used
as ft shield for certain Democrats to
win Republican votes, it proves to
bo nothing more than a delusion and
stiarc. Republicans are not going to
be caught napping this year by the
nonpartisan bait. I have no doubt
that many Republicans would give
earnest suport to a fair-play non
partisan ticket, but when the Demo
cratic machine attempts to bam
boozle innocent voters by attacking
Republicans in the interest of Dem
ocratic candidates, they are bound to
I fail in tliclp purpose."

! Episcopalians to Raise
Half Million For War
By Associated I'rcss
Washington, Sept. 14. Prelates of |
Oie Protestant Episcopal Church in !
the I'nltod States, gathered here !
to organize the war commission of
the church, to-day decided to raise
$500,000; to send a bishop to Europe
at once to look after Episcopalians in
the trenches and camps, ar.d created
an executive committee of churchmen
and laymen to carry out the plans.
liishop Kogers Israel, of Eric, is
now in Prance and the hope of the
war commission is that he may be in
duced to remain there. Palling that, i
it Is expected that liishop McCormick,
of Michigan, will be sent abroad to
undertake the work.
Bumper War Garden Crops
That the wargarden propaganda l
so tirelessly conducted by food ccon- j
omists throughout the country has
resulted in increased crops is borne
out by tentative surveys which have
already been made in a number of
' places, according to experts at the
Pennsylvania State College. T ,IG V
report on lots not previously used
[for garden crops at State College.
rN There were 123' lots planted in
potatoes, seven in beans, thirty-five \
in corn, six lots in cabbage and
seven in mixed plantings. The esti- I
mated yields of these lots are: 3,700!
bushels of potatoes, thirty bushels;
beans (shelled), 6,800 dozen ears of:
sweet corn and fifteen tons of cab
bage.
At 51.50 a bushel for potatoes, $9
a bushel for beans, twenty cents a !
dozen for sweet corn and S2O a ton!
for cabbage and valuing the mixed j
plants at S2OO, the total value of
these crops is estimated at $7,680.1
This survey represented no homei
I gardens nor land that has been used
I for gardens in previous years.

period to compose a dictionary that
