Philadelphia failed to score, Matthewson allowing the home team only four hits, while the New Yorkers managed to score three runs oft Plank. Although defeated. Philadelphia played a brilliant same. New York's great pitcher mowed down th home players In almost one, two, three order. Of the thirty-one men who faced him, only eight reached first, four of them on hits, three on fielder's choices and one on Donlln's muff of a short fly. Only one- man, Bchreck, reached third and he was thrown out at the plate on a close pHy. New York also excelled In base run ning, four of the visitors being credited with stolen bases. The only department wherein the Phila rielpMans outshone the New Yorkers waa In fielding. They gave Plank as brilliant support as has been seen here for a long time. Monte Cioss at short and Captain Lnve Cross at third made some brilliant stops and quick throws while on the run. The team played without an error. For New York. Dahlen and Devlin were all over the Infield, the latter making several hard stops and throws. Donlln made New York's only mlaplay. He started late on a short fly ball and muffed It. It resulted In nothing as the runner was doubled up at second on the next play. Matthewson singled to center In the fifth Inning, but was forced out at second by Bresnahan who stole second. Browne wa in easy out and Bresnahan scored on Don lln's single to left field. McQann was pur posely sent to first on four balls. Mertes' hit to the center field crowd, scoring Don lln with New York's second run. Dahlen was an easy out. The visitors scored their third run In the ninth on Gilbert's third hit of the day. Matthewson' sacrifice and Rresnahan's single. The nearest Philadelphia came to scor ing was In the sixth Inning when Schreck Bponed the Inning with a beautiful drive for Iwo bases. He reached third on Plank's nacrlflce. but was thrown out at the plate by Matthewson who gathered In Hartsel's sharp grounder. While the Interest In the series Is wide spread, the crowd was not as large as that which saw any one of the three games be tween the home -team and Chicago when they played their series about ten days g for first place. Counting those who saw the game from the roofs of houses sur rounding the grounds, more than IS.flOO per son witnessed the day's struggle. The paid '. admissions was officially announced at 17,955.

With weather con ditions favorable for good golfing, the tenth annual women's chainplonhlp tournament of the United States Golf association began today with a qualifying round of 18 holes medal play. There were seventy players entered, and sixty-six took part In the pre liminary round. Just nine years ago this event was inaugurated on the links of the Morris County Golf club. New Jersey. Since then the links have been Improved so as to make them more difficult. The playing distance is about 6,800 yards and today's test of the ability of the aspirants for championship honors was a good one. Two players of nole, Miss Georglania Bishop of Bridgeport, Conn., who won the national title last year, and Mrs. C. T. Stout of Apawamis, N. Y., who had won the title twice in succession, were among the competitors today. Miss Bishop turned In a card of 87 for the course, which is a new record on these links for a woman, while Mrs. Stout took 96. Miss Margaret Curtis of Essex county, Massachusetts, tied Miss Bishop for medal play honor with another 87, and MIhs Anita E. Phipps of 8pringfteld, Mass., Miss M. W. Phelps of Brookline.

RILES President Itoosevelt Confers with Athletic Directors of Six Colleges. WASHINGTON, Oct. ((.-President Roose velt entertained at luncheon today Dr. D. H. Nichols and W. T. Reld of Harvard, Arthur T. Hlllebrant and John B. Fife of Princeton and Walter Camp and Mr. Owsley of Yale. The six guests of the president constitute the athletic advisers of the respective colleges named. The president desired to consider with them particularly the morale of the game of foot ball with a view to eliminating much of Its brutality if possible. A general discussion of college athletics was had. but the talk centered around the game of foot ball. It Is hoped by the president that with the co-operation of the college authorities and the atnletic advisers, the rules of the game may be so amended as practically to do away with much of the brutality which makes the game objectionable to many people. It Is understood that no definite conclusions were reached. Indeed none was expected, the Idea of the president being simply to start the ball rolling In the direction of a modification of the rule of the game. WITH THE BOWLERS. The Cudahys won three games from the Black Kats last night In a runaway match. The kats were terribly off all around, a not a man reached the 600 mark.

HERING Doctrines of Christian Science Ex pounded by President of the Mother Church. Prof. Herman fl. Herlng. C, S. B., presi dent of the Mother"church of the Christian Scientists, which Mrs. Eddy established In Boston, lectured last night at Chambers' academy before a representative body of Omaha Scientists. Prof. Herlng Is the son of Dr. Constantlne Herlng. founder of homoeopathy In America. He was made professor of mechanic and electrical engi neering by the Board of Public Education of Philadelphia In 1887 and in 1891 was called to the Johns Hopkins university In Baltimore aa associate electrical engineer. where he remained for eight years. In 1899 he gave up his profession and ha since devoted his time entirely to Christian Sci ence. Ha wa made first reader of the Mother church in 1902 and president and lecturer. In part Prof. Herlng said: When I first heard of Christian Science its doctrine seemed very wonderful to me, and for the reason that as a pnllosophy It f (resents a theory and analysis of the prob em of mortal existence that not only seems to be logical and consistent in every detail, but that can be at once applied to the solution of that problem a philosophy founded absolutely, upon divine principle making God It very center and circum ference. As a science it furnishes a com plete, definite and demonstrable statement of truth, free from speculative hypotheses and without any missing links In the sys tem. It is based upon a fixed principle and rules with no exceptions or variation. As a religion It reveals an interpretation of the Scriptures that Is wholly consistent and demonstrable; It explains satisfactorily the miracles and expounds the teachings and methods of Jesus and the apostles In a way which makes them entirely practical today it reinstates spiritual healing as an essential element In Christianity and a necessary outcome of spiritual understand ing. This unexpected presentation of a satisfying, a parfect science and a dem onstrable religion impressed me greatly and I questioned, is It true? If true It Is the most wonderful and most valuable discovery ever made, for It settles every question that confronts man In religious and social life, in business and in morals. After three years of very careful investigation and demonstration I came to the conclusion that It was Indeed true that at last there had come to the world a salvation which would bring the "glorious liberty of the children of God," the comforter that the Father was to send In Christ's name to lead us Into all truth. It should be clearly understood that Chris tian Science Is a discovery and not an in vention. Its truth, its power, Its law, have always existed and are declared In the Holy Scriptures, but they have never before been fully preserved or set forth as a dem onstrable science, attesting the truth of the sayings of the great teacher, Christ Jesus, delivered centuries ago and handed down to us In fragmentary form. Jesus demonstrated his teachings by healing the sick, casting out evils, raising the dead and performing what the world called mir acles, and taught his disciples to do the same, yet the Scriptures contain no fixed rule or scientific process by which the power can be acquired and applied by stu dents. Jesus practiced the tender God-Inspired art of healing, which through the frovldenee of God has been restored to he world; today as a science of heallnar with principle and practice which cannot be lost. In referring to Mrs. Eddy, the discoverer and founder of Christian Science, Prof. Herlng said: I have had opportunity to know much of her wonderful ability. She is a devoted follower of Christ, Is looking continually to Jesus' life and teachings as well as to the entire Scriptures, for light and guid ance and places the utmost reliance upon God. It Is with her always a question of what God wants her to do, never consulting her own will or pleasure. Her sole aim Is to serve God and to do His will in estab lishing upon earth the wonderful truth re vealed to her and her heart's deaire I to proclaim to the world the glorious gospel that the kingdom of heaven is now at hand. Announcement of the Theater.

During the brief business session Mrs. George Hoobler was elected chairman of the department' civic committee. Mrs. Smith spoke briefly of the work for chic Improvement that haa been done during the past summer and presented suggestions that some of the photograph of the re ult of that contest be recommended to the Commercial club, the Real Estate ex change or some other prominent organisa tion for use on a calendar with a view to stimulating Interest In beautifying Omaha. Mr. and Mrs. John Davis of Lincoln were the speakers of the afternoon presenting something of the work of the national con ferences cf Charities and Correction and especially the report of the Juvenile court work. Mr. Davis, who Is a meeiber of the state board, expressed the opinion that at least 63 per cent of the prisoners In the state penitentiary have not the proper environment; that they should not be with the other orlmlnals, but rather In an inter mediate prison or workhouse, and he urged the club women to educate public senti ment to that necessity. He also urged the women to attend the meeting of" the Na tional Prison association to be held at Lincoln October 21 to 26. He ascribed to the club women a large share of the credit for educating public opinion along the line of charity and correction. Two vocal numbers by Miss Augusta Lehman concluded the program which was followed by an In formal tea. Mrs. H B. Towle presided at the tea table which was laid In the east parlor.

' The St. Paul hlnnlai board met hut once before the summer 'Vacation to look over the ground and-to make sure that there wa nothing to' worry about until Septem ber. The only 'uncertalri factor In the St. Paul problem was the -new auditorium, which was needed to clear away the diffi culties of the evening sessions. The Peo ple's church is large enough and Ideal for the day sessions. Now that the new audi torium Is well under way the varlou prob lems seem to be reduced to fairly simple terms. There Is always plenty of work In arranging for a biennial, but at the present Btage of progress there seem to be few per plexities and none of serious proportions. The executive committee, made up of the executive officers, has acted during the summer, appointing such committee chair men as the situation demanded. Mrs. J. W. Egberton was made chairman of the place of meetings committee. She has se cured the old tate capltol building for state headquarters during the convention, the governor granting her request readily and heartily. The building Is splendidly adapted to this purpose, aa there are a United State postofflce, conference rooms, Grand Army of the Republic lunching room (seating about 126 at one time) under the management of the ladle of the Grand Army of the Republic, and ample toilet facilities. The building Is within from one tqfour block of the principal hotels of the city and seven and a half block from the People' church. It is also within plain sight and easy walking distance of the new capltol, where the governor and Mr. John Bon and the local biennial board will re ceive their guests Saturday evening of con vention week. Mrs. V. J. Hawkln. 127 East Isabel street, has been placed In charge of the hotels committee. The Ryan hotel was approved by the executive com mittee and the general federation officer as hotel headquarters. It Is an American plan hotel, within four blocks of the old capltol, and its rates are from $2.60 to $6, as will be seen from the official hotel cir culars. The $6 rooms are the parlor floor rooms. Mis Elsie Shawe, 402 East Ninth street, whose name is linked with musical progress in the northwest, is chairman of tha musical committee. These three com mittee chairmen were the only appoint ments made during the summer. The plan. Inaugurated by Mrs. Decker, of appointing some member of the general board to serve on each of the local committee promise gratifying reult. as nearly all these women have been through a "biennial mill" and their advice ha a sound basis In ex perience. Tha whole biennial board will meet early In Beptember, when th work will be taken up In detail. Harry B. Davla, undertaker. Tel. 1226. FOR 30 YEARS DR.

CONTRACT ORDERED ENDED Tiro Ejdrtot Benttl Toms Dietpproved by Water Board. CONDITIONS NOT FULFILLED THE CLAIM Company Accused of Providing; Innd. equate Service and Informed that Reasonable But Jtot Present Trice Will Be Pel a. The contract between the city and the Omaha Water company for the mainte nance and price of fire hydrant wa or dered terminated by the Water board at an adjourned meeting yesterday afternoon. The action was taken upon the advice and request of Attorneys C. C. Wright and John L. Webster, who explained that In contesting the suit for hydrant rental, amounting to about 1100,000, the board' position would be strengthened. They aald some court had held a notice or com plaint of Insufficient service to be neces sary for a successful suit to scale down the charges for hydrant rents, while others had deemed this expression unnecessary, but that no court had condemned the practice of refusing to pay full hydrant rent bill (f full service under a contract wa not given. The lawyers eald they did not anticipate any shutting off of water from the hy drant by the water company because the city's Interests In this particular are fully protected by the franchise ordinances, and If the company refused to supply fire protection Its franchise became forfeited. The vital part of the order reads: It Is hereby ordered hv tha Water board of the city of Omaha that the contract nxing hydrant rental be, and the same Is hereby terminated.
