Many Chicago fans are wondering whe.ner Leonard Cole , the lanky young pitcher of the Cubs , will have the stamina to stand the test of hard work in the coming world's series. To the man on the bleachers "King" Cole seems to bo anything but a faint hearted person. There are those who think Cole is too young and Inexperienced to stand the strain. It Is contended that the thought of the Importance of the contests and facing n team like the Athletics be fore a crowd of probably more than 30.000 persons would upset the young ( linger of the Cub staff. Sucli u thing is possible with a pitcher of Cole's experience and one who has never competed in a world's championship. Uut If Ills performance In league games Is any criterion , lie should not have any trouble in doing as well as he has done before. Cole was asked recently If lie thought nuvouid be able to pitch with the coolness that lie had shown up to date. He replied : "I do not see where there's any dif ference in pitching In a world's series. Of course , the result is of more im portance , but that should not make any difference with a pitcher. If Chance puts me In , as I hope lie will , 1 will do lust as I have done in the past. 1'erhaps I will bo a little more cautious , as I have not seen any of the Athletic batters , and have not the least Idea how they hit : Uut that should not make any difference to the pitcher who has the 'stuff and nerve. " On account of his splendid work In the National League this season it is natural to expect that Cole will be a factor in the world's series , and he will , but it is not likely that Chance will rely too much on him. The mainstay will be either Browner or Heulbach. They have had the ex perience of playing in world's series games and are noted for their cool ness and nerve when it comes to a crisis. Overall would be counted In on that , too , but his arm is in such shape that It Is doubtful if he will get an opportunity to work , unless his whip shows n great change for the better before the series starts. Over all is a hard man beat when be Is in top form. lack Pfeister will be Incondition before then and will be In fighting .shape when called on for the series. Pfeister will be good for one game at least , and possibly more. Like Brown , Roulbach and Overall , ho has bad the experience of facing high class opponents In a world's series , and has nn unlimited amount of pluck. That is one feature Chance likes about a pitcher , and he never hesitates to praise his staff on account of th * Nice Points of Law Involved. West Peiint , Neb. . Sept. 21 Special to The News : The regular fall term of the district court for Cumlng conn- ty is now in session. The jury was empanelled yesterday morning and the case of Tliielo vs. Carey is now on trial. This is a case of nnusual inter est as involving nice points of law , It Is alleged the defendant received a deposit of money from a would-be purchaser of land and when the party appeared to consummate the deal the defendant refused to accept the balance anco of the purchase price or to re fund the deposit already paid. The case has already been In the supreme court and was remanded for a nevi trial. trial.Tho The following persons were admit ted to full United States eitizenshli after a searching examination by the United States special examiner sem hero for the purpose : Peter M.

George Dow ney , living on a sandhill ranch threi miles south of here , concluded tha going about in a wagon was a bit slov for a rich rancher , so a couple o weeks ago ho went to Omaha , am when he returned ho rode in a splen did ? 3.fiOO touring car , paid for in linn cash. cash.For For a few days the Downey car wa the envy of the neighborhood , as 1 was the finest machine ever hrough into Cherry county. Now , howovoi Downey Is again riding behind a spa : of horses nnd the automobile has bee : consigned to the Junk pile , where It [ will remain until numerous new parts can bo secured from the factory. This nil comes about on account of n col- llalon between the automobile and a 0-year-old Hereford bull , the recog nized boss of the Downey ranch. The other day Downey cranked up the automobile and Invited the men visitors to ride to one of the farthest away lots and look at the cattle. All went well until the lot where the Hereford cattle were grazing was reached. The gate to tills enclosure was thrown open and Downey put on the high speed and as It steamed out toward whore the bull was grazing he threw up his head , looked around and commenced to paw the ground. Dow ney yelled , but the animal took this for a challenge to fight and started toward the machine. Downey put on the big speed and the bull did the same. There was a crash and out of the dust and smoke that hung like a pall over the scene , the bull stood over the wreckage , pawing and bellowing. Those Girls Played Ball. Norfolk won an interesting and fast game of baseball on the driving park diamond yesterday afternoon from the Hopkins girl champion baseball play ers of the world by a score of 5 toI. . All through the game the girls en deavored to wrest the victory from ( lie Norfolk men , who showed no mercy after they had warmed up to the fact that they were playing against a strong outfit , including the shortstop and one outfielder , who were not girls but men , and first class baseball play ers at that. Ada , the clover little girl twlrler , was succeeded by Madgoon , the man on second. Ada took Madgoon's place | and made good. She only pitched ono inning , her "spit ball" proving an easy mark for the home team. Madgoon , on the other hand , was hard to find , although Krnhn and Spitz both ham mered him for a two-bagger. Kellelier seemed out of sorts when he threw Ills first ball with a "girl" in the box. He seemed puzzled and al though he had his usual steam , the chatting he got from Hattlo as she marked time with both her feet and bat seemed to get on his nerves. Her single , however , awakened him and 10 was soon grinding away and found needed all his cleverness. The j i i girls with the combination of their iien players were out to win. Norfolk retired In the first Inning i vithout a score , the girls having balked up one score to their record , j I I 'hey made another in the second with | S'orfolk following and tying the two and two score in the third. There vas nothing doing then until the sixth , lie little grounders having ueen goo- jled up at first on both sides. Nor- oik's score in the sixth was tied by , he girls who , however , could not overcome the two runs In the seventh , rhey forced one in , making the score o to 4 In that Inning. The eighth was a zero on both sides and it looked bad for the Hopkins ; irls. Fat , whose girl name was not ecorded and who played an able game n the center Held , hit out a pop-up but his was taken up by Schelly on sec ond. Then came Hattle with her reg- .liar fire of chatter at both pitcher and .inipire. Two strikes were recorded igainst her , but she met Uomey's last ndeavor squarely , pulling out a three- Dagger. The way she went around the jases would put to shame some of the Marathon runners. Her slide to the third bag was a record grandstand feature and she won much applause. Hull then popped out a grounder which Kelleher held for a moment and then put him out to Brueggeman , who came back to Miller to put out Hattle as she was sliding headlong for the liome plate. This ended the game with Norfolk only one up. There was a little kicking on the part of the Hop kins men against the last decision of the umpire. They claimed Hattle should have been called safe at home , but they gave it up and marched to their private car which was enrouto to Plainview , where they play today. The score : Hopkins AB. R. H.

Brueggeman had a brand now hull uniform of red , but this the girl play ers did not seem to notice. They played baseball. South had his off day. Could II have been the girls ? They say the girl player called Comr who played first was a man. One tick et seller confided to another that Comr were a wig. Nothing mannish about Fat or Ada The Norfolk boys say they are all per r , feet ladles. Without the ribbons and long hah n the grandstand fans declare the glr players can pass for boys any place. POOR CHILDREN LEARN TO ACT. Little East Side Juveniles Educated In Art of Statecraft. New Idea Woman's Magazine : Down deep on the East Side , New York , there Is a little theater that Isn't a theater at all. It is an educational playhouse where shine theatrical stars just as bright as the ones along Broadway - , way the dream of all play people. I These stars dm Ing the daytime go j to school or work behind typewriting I machines , or add up long columns of figures , or watch mangling machines In the laundries all the day long. Only at night do they come out and twinkle merrily to lighten weary hearts. Until the educational theater was organized , six years ago , the only amusements accessible to the poorest of the East Side were the nickelod eons , the penny arcades , the tenth- class moving picture shows of the Bowery , Houston nnd Grand streets. How to get the boys and youths , the girls and young working women to sidestep the Insidious Bowery show ; to have ms'.cad an evening of pure , clean enjoyment that was the ques tion. After many weighty considerations it was at last decided to present a real play by wholly untrained working boys and girls. Then the educational theatnr was organized. When a cast is to be selected the dramatic director lets it be known and applicants Hock In. Sometimes as many as 000 apply for a place in a play that requires thirty members. The admission to the performance Is ton cents. Tills does not begin to defray the expenses , but that's not the idea it's educational and com mercial. That's the reason it's a play house and not a theater. The boy , or much more the girl , who readies that well known period in life's journey finds himself or her self richer In experience , and yet , to all intents and purposes , absolutely ig norant of the real seductiveness , the real dangers and pitfalls of the com mercial stage. Bryan Bolts Mayor Jim. Lincoln , Sept. 21. In a statement in which he declares that the crusade which he feels impelled to wage against the liquor interests of the state and nation overshadows a per sonal-ami political friendship of twen- ty years , William .1. Bryan last even- Ing announced he had bolted the head of the democratic state ticket in Nebraska - | braska , and would not support James C. Dahlman for governor. Mr. Bryan says he regrets that he is compelled to take the stand be does his first departure from party reg ularity but says lie feels it tils duty to do so because of the position taken by the democratic nominee on the liquor question. Statement Is Apologetic. The statement , which In a way Is apologetic in tone , does not Indicate that Mr. Bryan will support the candi date of any other party , but announces that lie is a pronounced advocate of county option and the early saloon closing law , both of which he Insists nre menaced by Mr. Dahlman's candi dacy. The statement Is ns follows : "I am Just leaving for Missouri and shall be absent practically all of the time for about a month , campaigning in Missouri , Kansas , Iowa , Indiana and Illinois. After that I shall be at lib erty to speak for Mr. Hitchcock , the democratic candidates for congress I and for the state ticket In Nebraska. In speaking for the state ticket , how ever , I .shall not be able to present any arguments In favor of the election of Mr. Dahlman. His position on the liquor question makes that impossible. Old Friends , Too. "I regret this exceedingly for he has been a political and personal friend for twenty years and It would give me pleasure to speak for him if I could endorse the policy for which he stands , but he has chosen to make the liquor question the paramount issue and makes ills appeal on that issue. "In spite of the fact that the last democratic state convention voted i down , a declaration against county op- tlon by a vote of G3S to 202 , he says ! that he will veto a county option bill i if passed and in spite of the fact that the state convention endorsed the S o'clock closing law by a vote of 710 to j 103 be announces that he will sign a | bill repealing it if such a bill is passed. ; He Is making his appeal on non-par- I tlsan lines with the liquor question as the solo issue. His courage is to bo ! commended. It is an honest way of j making a campaign , although It com- i pels him to squeeze himself from i friends who do not agree with him am ] to rely for such making up on those democrats and republicans who take his view on the subject. ! Glad Issue Is Up. j "Possibly It is Just as well to have the issue clearly presented so that It may be settled this year instead of two years hence. Troublesome as the question Is now , -would be even more embarrassing If presented In 1912 , when wo have a presidential elec tion on hand. If Mr. Dahlman Is elect ed it will be a declaration by the voters ers of the state against county option and against the S o'clock closing law , If ho is defeated It will bo a declara tion In favor of county option and In favor of the 8 o'clock closing law. In other words , the voters now have an opportunity to decide which way the state shall go , backward or forward To present arguments in favor of go ing backward would not contradlcl what I have already said on the sub ject , but would embarrass mo In the fight that I expect to make hereaftei to save our party from the odium ol being the representative of the llquoi Interests. " Dahlman's Reply Sizzles. Omaha , Sept. 21Mayor James C r Dahlman , democratic candidate foi 1 governor , hurled defiance at William i J. Bryan , who gave out n statement that he would not support the mayor In his gubernatorial campaign. In many respects the mayor's statement Is more forcible than eloquent , and he closes with the declaration that "they will find out they have got hold of the wrong end of a red hot poker and will get the biggest trimming that has been given In this or any other state for many years. " The mayor's statement follows : "Mr. Bryan and I have been coworkers - workers and friends , politically and personally for twenty years and dur ing that time I have never wavered at any point along the line when his ene mies assailed him , nor when ho was a candidate for office. "The position I take on the liquor question Is purely democratic and follows the spirit of democratic princi ples which stand at all times for per sonal liberty and self government. The party has always stood for per sonal liberty and that is why I am a democtat. Says People Back Him. "Tho Slocum law of our state has been on the statute books for thirty years. It gives eacli city , town and village the right to vote saloons in or out , which means local self govern ment. County option , which Bryan Is advocating , enlarges the unit and takes from the people the right of self government. "Mr. Bryan and his friends try to make it appear that this is a brew ery light. The primary election just held in Nebraska has demonstrated that the people of our state without regard to vocation , farmers , merchants and working men alike , have rallied to my support and gave mo the nomi nation regardless of party , because they were opposed to sumptuary laws. "Wrong End of Hot Poker. " "I regret exceedingly that Mr. Bryan and myself must part company for a short time at least. When the votes are counted November S Mr. Bryan , the comity optlonlst , and all of the people who are trying to force sump tuary laws on the citizens of tills state , one of the greatest in the union , will find out they have got hold of the wrong end of a red hot poker , be cause we will give them the biggest trimming which has been given In tills or any other state in several decades.

George Chavez , the Pe ruvian , and Mr. Weymann , the Amer ican aviator , declare they will wait favorable weather before again at tempting the cross-Alps flight over the Simplon pass to Milan , Italy. SMUGGLERS HAVE POOR LUCK. In Six Weeks Jewels Worth J/2 Million Have Been Seized at New York. New York , Sept. 21. That at least million dollars worth of one-half jew elry has been seized from the state- looms of "amateur smugglers" arriv ing in New York aboard trans At lantic liners within six weeks , was the statement made by Gen. Nelson H. Henry , the new surveyor of the port. .More than SO percent of these gemi were brought In by women , and an other 50 percent await final confisca tion or adjudication at the customs stores.
