For the third successive time they defeated the Philadelphia Nationals today by the same score that has marked all of the Red Sox victories 2 to 1.

"Ales." Last Hope of rails. If Alexander should prove a winner In his own ball yard tomorrow, the sixth came of the series will be played in Boston on Thursday. Alexander is the lnt hope of the Phillies. Ha is ready and anxious to gq . back In the box to morrow and is sure to give a good ac count of himself. He won from the Sox last Friday and was defeated yesterday only by a fierce batting rally In the last of the ninth. The Phillies themselves feel that if they can give big "Alex." any sort of offensive support he will put across a victory tomorrow that at least will give the National leaguers a fighting chance in the series. The Philadelphia batters took rather kindly to Ernest Shore's offerings today and made more hit than they had regis tered in any one of the three previous contests. The power ' to drive In the runs was lacking, however, and eight of the visitors were left stranded on the Crave'th.'

If It Isn't, why don't you men dance with men and women with women? I have more respect for a saloon keeper than I have for a dancing master."' He attacked the churches for their laxity In enforcing their beliefs atralnat these evils.

Oct. 12. The enormouii drain on Russia's supply of men and tho financial strain upon the country are emphasized by the Times' Rus sian correspondent In a review of th situation in tho cast. Russia, he says, never expected the war to last longer than six months, t had suf ficient money, an abundance of shells and a superfluity of men for such a war, but was not prepared for so prolonged and strenuous a strug gle. - "She strove Ijard," the correspondent asserts, "to meet the demands for am munition, but she poaaeases neither the Industrial Imrki; round, the akllled hands nor the industrial mobility to support her army adequfttely. She must depend upon outside help and has to buy from Japan, the United States or elsewhere. hua the problem becomes largely! financial. "It should be remembered thtt the Rus sian ruble has depreciated 40 per cent; that Russia raises nothing by the sale of spirits and scarcely anything by her tariff on Imports and . she also has greater difficulty in tiorrowing In America, ' "For. the time being Russia continues Ud hold 'its .own.
