BOSTON DEFEATS ROBINS IN FIRST GAME OF SERIES Red Sox Romp Resistlessly Through Brooklyn Rivals Till They Skid in Ninth Inning. SIX TO FIVE IS THE SCORE Dodgers Take Advantage of Rivals' Wabbling and Pile Up Four Tallies. SHORE WEAKENS IN LAST Attendance, 36,117. N Total receipts, $76,489.50. Players' share, $41,304.33. Each club's share, $13,768.11. - National Base Ball commissions share, $7,648,95. Boston, Oct. 7. The well-nigh per fect base ball machine of the Boston American league dub triumphed over the Brooklyn Nations here this after noon, 6 to 5, in the first game of the world's series, but marred its victory by skidding badly in the final inning. For eight innings the thirty odd thou sand loyal supporters of Boston sat with a complacent air of satisfaction, while the junior league champions romped through their National league rivals to a lead of six to one. With the game apparently won, Boston began to wobble, led by Pitcher Earnest Shore, and before the last Brooklyn batter had been retired the Brooklyns had gained four tallies. This surorising break, of which the invading team was quick to take ad vantage, was the feature of an oth erwise ordinary base ball game. Beginning to Leave. , When Daubert, the first Brooklyn batsman, stepped to the place in the opening half of the ninth inning, the spectators were beginning to leave the field, but they halted in their tracks as Shore passed the batter, and Casey Stengel sent him to second with a clean single. A lone Brooklyn rooter began to beat upon a tin pan and here and there were cries of encour agement for the National league champions, but the cheers died away a? Wheat forced Daubert at third. Shore, however, could not control the ball as he had done earlier in the game, and hit Cutshaw. Mowrey arose to the occasion with a bounder, which Janvrin could not handle, and Stengel and Wheat crossed the plate Fears of the Boston fans grew when Olson beat out an infield hit, and they were scarcely relieved when Chief Myers fouled out. Merkle batting for Pfeffer, outwitted Shore and walked, forcing in Cutshaw. with the third run of the" inning. ' '"', Puts Mays In. r There was not a sound from the thousands when Manager Carrigan ordered bhore trom the box and sub. stitutcd Mays. Myers, Brooklyn's lead-off batter, scratched an in field hit. scoring Mowrev, and the Na tionals were within a run of tying the score, with the bases still loaded. Daubert came to the plate for the second time in the inning, and every one of the thousands of spectators held his breath as the Brooklyn cap tain hit an uglv bounder to bcott The shortstop speared the ball as it leaped from the turf and without pausing even to sight, whipped it to Hoblitzel. Daubert, sliding into the bag. head-first, appeared to arrive with the flashing ball, but there was a great cheer when Umpire O'Day, who fairly overhung the base, sig naled the third out and the ending of the game. Hooper's Star Play. It was a climax that showed the resources and strength of Boston when under pressure. But it was not the only exhibition ot similar na ture. Right Fielder Harry Hoopei uncovered the star individual play of the day in the fourth inning, when he made a great running catch of Cutshaw's twisting fly and nipped Wheat, trying to score from third. The ball left Cutshaw's bat as if un decided where it Vyas going, and Hooper had to sprint over toward the foul line, just back of first base, be fore he could get his hands on it. The efforf caused him to slip to the turf in a sitting position, but he was up like a flash and while still rising, hurled the ball straight to Cady. The latter slammed it on Wheat's ankle as he reached for the plate with his foot at the end of a perfect slide. This thrilling catch and throw and the ninth-inning rally of the vanquished Brooklyn team were the outstanding features of the first game of the ries, which attracted a gathering of base ball followers that numbered (Continued on Page Two, Column Two.)

UKUrl, What is the psychology of tt, wunuo iincicsi iii great mem w viy oia we struggle tor a place to sec President Wilson and his wife? Why did we hang on their slightest move? Wo thrilled to see them smile Those who spoke to them or gained a passing glance felt honored. We were almost surprised to sre that they actually ate food like other peo pie. Seven years ago when Mr. Wilson was president of Princeton university nine-tenths of the people who saw him 'Thursday had never heard of him and wouldn't have gone a block to see him. Yet he was essentially as learned and able a man then as he is today. Slightly over a year ago none ot us had heard of the beau tiftil and gracious lady who is now Mrs. Wilson. Why, then, did we thrill, crowd, jostle ana crane our necks? Was it merely admiration? No. For a vast number in that cheering multitude Thursday do not admire Mr. Wilson as a president. And the thrill at seeing Mrs. Wilson would have been just as great if she had been homely instead of beautiful. Was It Loyalty? Was it loyalty for this man because he is chiet executive of our repub lie? Not exactly. Suppose, instead of President Wilson, we had had Kaiser Wilhelm as our visitor, do you thtnk the crowd would have been smaller? Or suppose the czar of Kussia had been here, riding through our streets, luncning at our Lommer cial club and speaking in our Audi torium I What was it, then? You say, curi osity. Ana i agree. But curiositv is an ettect not a cause. We must analyze deeper and find what caused this curiosity, this desire to see, Mm thrill at seeing. Wasn't it advertising, that miehtv power which we usuallv think of as applying only to automobiles and clothing and all things that are sold? The president is the most adver tised man in America. You read about him every day. He corresponds with foreign potentates; he addresses listening senates; he names ambassa dors and ministers to foreign courts. Hvery day you read ot him in some great role, and he plays this role be cause of his high office. . Advertising Pays. The high-office which the president occupies plus the publicity which he receives is the cause of our curiosity. Of course, patriotism plays a little part also and so does admiration for the attainments tf the man. A man. to be. advertised successfully, must be like a product that is advertised successfully. " He must have intrinsic merit. You could advertise an ignor ant and characterless man forever and not get up much interest in him. Our living ex-presidents today at tract comparatively little attention. Their advertising dropped off with their retirement trom orhce. All of which, let it be explained to those who have no taste for psyco- logical speculation, is not intended to detract one iota from the magnih cence of our reception to President and Mrs. Wilson. Biggest Week in History for Omaha Bank Clearings Another record for Omaha bank clearings has been shattered. Ak-Sar-Ben week proved to be the big gest week in the history of the Omaha clearing house. The total clearings for the six days were $29, 795,801.83, an average of almost $5,000,000 a day and a gain of over $b,UW,UUU over this week last year The clearings for the day, $5,227, 735.36, were the largest of any Sat urday in history. Shook-Wilson's Hand, Won't Wash Her Own Since Thursday afternoon more than forty-eight hours Miss Char lotte Martin, secretary to County At torney Magney, has not washed her right hand. She was the only court house lady privileged to shake the hands of President and Mrs. Wilson alter tneir aeparture trom the re viewing stand and that same hand is jealously guarded. Vivacious Miss Martin, a devotee of the policy that if one keeps good-natured until 10 o'clock in the morning the rest of the day will take care of itself, left her seat in the reviewing stand after the parade had passed, confronted the president, stuck out her hand and gripped the presidential palin. She was then turned over to. Mrs. Wilson and for a few seconds basked in the smiles of the first lady of the land. Miss Martin charmingly boasts that she has gripped the hands of three presidents, Taft, Roosevelt, Wilson, yet she has not yet reached the age of majority. Sioux City Bakers Make Price Of Bread Two Cents an Ounce Sioux City, la., Oct. 7. Sioux Citv bakers today abandoned the 5-cent, twelve-ounce loaf of bread. Here after they will sel'. a fourtecn-ounce loaf for 7 cents and a twenty-ounce loaf for 10 cents. Sacramento, Cal., Oct. 7.

ARMED GERMAN U-BOAT REACHES AMERICAN PORT tort it" Man-of- V-ineimshaven jiug Kaiser' s Flag, in U. S. Waters. NO HOSTILE CRAFT SIGHTED Commander Says Vessel Puts in at Norfolk to Deliver Message to Bernstorff. N0THING IS TAKEN ABOARD Newport, R. I., Oct. 7. The Ger man submarine U-53 from Wilhelms- haven arrived in the harbor this after noon. It crossed , the ocean in seventeen days. . The U-53 is a man- of-war, flies the flag of the German navy and has a single gun mounted on its deck. The U-53, in command of Lieuten ant Captain .Hans Rose, appeared spick and span upon its arrival here and looked as if it had been out only lor maneuvers, its commander re ported that he had not sighted any Hostile cratt on his voyage over, add ing that the boat was plentifully sup plied with provisions and fuel and nothing would be taken aboard here. Shortly after the submersible came in Commander Rose paid an official call pon Rear Admiral Austin M, Knight, commandant of the Nam- gansset Bay station, to whom be stated that he was preparing to leave port tonight. Commander Rose explained that the submarine, which is a regular war ves sel and equipped with wireless, had put in here only to deliver official mail for the German ambassador. He declined to say whether he had been oraered to American waters to search for the German merchant submarine Bremen, long overdue on this side. 1 he submarine made fast time down the harbor and the fleet of small boats which started after it had difficulty in keeping up with its pace. When it disappeared from the view of ob servers on shore it was still running awasn, witn no sign ot an intention of submerging immediately. Its desti nation was not revealed. Weather conditions here are said to be such that the ship could sub merge within the three-mile limit if necessary. . I he U-53 weighed anchor and sailed from the harbor at 5:17 o'clock this afternoon. Marshall Comes s ' .To Help Save. the.. State for Wilson Vice President Thomas R. Marshall is scheduled to arrive m Omaha at 3:55 p. m. today. He is being sent to Nebraska by the democratic na tional committee to assist in an effort to save the state for Wilson as against Hughes. Local democratic leaders admit they are endeavoring to get some more big guns here, because they re alize that Nebraska has a normal re publican majority. Word has gone out to the-democratic rank and file to talk up that Nebraska is going for Wilson by a large margin. A city hall democrat is said to have offered' to bet a whole dollar that Wilson will carry Nebraska and $1.50 that he will be elected. Mr. Marshall will speak at Colum bus, Schuyler and Fremont on Mon day, returning here for an evening address in the Brandeis theater. Miss Long Thrown From Horse During Race and Injured Kansas City, Mo Oct. 7. Miss Lulu Long, nationally known as a horse woman, the daughter of R. A. Long, millionaire lumberman, was se riously injured here last night when she was thrown from her mount dur ing a potato race, an event of the American Koyal Live Stock show. Miss Long was holding a potato high over her head at the end of a lath spear, defying attemots of on- ponents to knock the potato off the suck, wnen, in making a sharp turn, her mount fell to its knees. Miss Long was thrown head foremost. In the horse's flounderjng to regain its looting, anss Long was cut many times, rnysicians declared they did not believe her condition dangerous. Miss Long was taken nome im mediately. The iniu'V was the first she ever had while riding despite the lact tnat sne nas been the central figure in several smash-ups during the horse shows over the country. Sick Girl's Spirit Haunts Indian Camp Peace brooded over hushed Fort Omaha Friday night. The Indians would not dance, squaws talked in only whispers and all lights except the campfire were dim. The spirit of Julia Kaumfaumfoci, the young In dian girl, was hovering over all. Julia, lying at the Swedish Mission hospital, was on the brink of the hap py hunting ground. Many stalwart bucks had called at the hospital in the afternoon and had so reported to their chiefs. Julia could not even speak to them, they said. And when the campfires were lighted in the murky dusk of evening, Indians saw in the flames the young girls SDirit. Old heads took counsel then and from the big tent came the order not to dance. The death watch was on. And in the morning Julia was con valescing, hospital authorities said. The Indians went back to the reser vation confident that her spirit had been restored to her.

Stagecoach Stirs Old-Time Memories . G. W. Holdrege ahd C. J. Ernst, general manager and treasurer, re spectively, of the Burlington lines west of the Missouri river, took par ticular interest in the old stagecoach which was driven in the historical parade on Thursday afternoon. Seated beside the driver of this old coach was Thomas Ryan, a pas senger conductor of the Burlington line between Nebraska City and Lin coln. Mr. Holdregevaved recognition to Mr. Ryan, who returned the saluta tion. Fifty years ago Mr. Ryan drove a similar coach with the mail from Ne braska City to Lincoln via Syracuse, Palmyra, etc. At that time Mr. Ernst was a clerk m the bookstore of N. S. Harding & Co., at Nebraska City, which store was in the same room with the postoffice, and it was Mr. Ernst's duiy to receive the mail from Mr. Kyan wnen ne arove in every night with the coach. Mr. Ernst was sworn into the United States mail service in connection with his work as clerk in the store. He was only 15 years when he started his double duty. When the Nebraska City-Lincoln coach service was abandoned Mr. Ryan became a conductor on the Mid land Pacific and later entered the Burlington service.

There were fortunately no in ternal injuries and recovery is ex pected, though at her age, about 60 years, it may be slow. Omaha's Morning After NEW YORK TO HUGHES SAYS WADSWORTH Former Senator of Empire State Declares the Indica tions Are Plain. 1 SEES NOVEMBER VICTORY (From a Btaft Correspondent.) Lincoln, Neb- Oct. 7. (Special.) "New York will go for Hughes by a majority without, a question of a doubt," said United States eSnator J. W. Wadsworth tp The Bee while in Lincoln. "In fact,!' said the senator, "the' whole country is going for Hughes. Frantic efforts of the demo crats to make the people believe that Wilson is popular are not getting any where. -The very fact that they are resorting to some of the methods they do to carry their ends ami to manu facture public opinion, indicates they themselves recognize they are grad ually losing." Senator Wadsworth was mighty pleased with his reception in Ne braska and also well pleased with the republican sentiment wherever he has been. He believes that Nebraska will be found on the republican side, as will nearly every northern state. The rapidly changing sentiment all over encourages republicans mightily, ac- coramg to senator Wadsworth, and means nothing less than an over whelming victory for Governor Hughes. . Senator Wadsworth is a fine speak er and one of the prosperous farmers of the state of New York. A graduate of Yale and a star on her foot ball team, he enlisted in the Spanish American war and saw service in Cuba with a Philadelphia battery. Voters Studying Political Problems Turning to G. 0, P. (From a Stall Corrennondeiit.) Lincoln, Oct. 7. (Special.) De mand for republican literature is causing, the republican state commit tee to do a lot of hustling. Many umes a nay visitors go to headquar ters and ask for literature that will enable them to get the inside of the many problems the voter will have to settle. "This all indicates," said Chairman ueacn louay, tnat the people are waking up and when they shoVv the interest they are beginning to show now, there is no ned for us to worry over the result. 1 have been of the opinion from the very start that just as soon as our speakers got busy the people would want to know the fact and as they learn them there is only the one result, a general turning to liugnes ana tne republican ticket. "Did you ever notice," said the cnairman, tnat as soon as a voter gets to studying the situation for him self. he generally discovers his best interests will be conserved by voting inc repuuuean llCKexr Steamer Afire Off The Virginia Canes; Passengers Aboard Newport News, Va., Oct. 7.

For the finale, an uproarlbut crew was on hand, and hc way .they made things hum was a caution. Confetti was never dispensed with such abandon, and in fact no crowd has disported itself so freely and with so much vim as did the final throng of 1916. King Ak, this year, saw the high water mark in every festivity. Success was the keynote on every hand. The iubilee grounds were sit uated most conveniently, the attrac tions were much better than m years gone by, and the general efficiency of the carnival staff was markedly evi dent Spirit of the Throne. ; f What was it that kent the erowda walking around and around the jubilee grounds-' on their "poor ould teet as a well known English come dienne would say?
