The "Macks. ou the other hand, are entitled to forty per cent, of the players' share, or $4 8,- 750.38. This will be equally divided among twenty-four men, which gives every Mackman $2,031.68. The play ers receive less money than has fallen to their lot since 1910. Because of the shortness of the se ries, the club owners and the National Commission divide a smaller sum than in any world's series since 1910. The «lub owners receive fifteen per cent, of $225,739, the total receipts of the /„°' lr which amounts to $40,6u-.55. The National Oommission is entitled to ten per cent, of the total or $22,573.

At the deciding struggle in 1 913, 36,682 persons at tended, which leaves a total of 114,- 318 for the first four games, 3,309 more than the number that witnesses this year s series. This accounts for ihe fact that the players' share for last year exceeded this year's total bv $13,363.25. The prize was divided be tween twenty-live Mackmen in 1913, and each received $3,246.36. Each member of the Giants, the losers, was given $2,164.22. In 191'2 the plavers" share was high and each Red ' Sox player was awarded $4,022. while every New York Giant was given $2 - 560.

' 'The Traffic" "The Traffic," which plays at the! •Mjajeebic to-night, is said to be the most; audacious play of serious purpose ever presenteil to an American public. It deals with the projects and unvarnished ! truth about the wihi'te slave trade. The author of this defiant adventure into dramatic realism is Radhe'l Marshall,! whose great-grandfather was the fa mous Ohlief Justice Marshall. Convin cing fidelity to facts is the startling feature of "The Traffic.'' Startling as i the effect of "The Traffic'' upon the; audience, yet it is a play of essential i cleanliness. Adv.

Jack ' Lait, t'he author and noted Chicago j journalist, has written a story tinrobbi 11 g with the interests of bi>{ business and j deals with a subject of universal ap- j peal.

"Seven Keys, to Baldpate" cannot be described.
