PHILADELPHIA. Oct. J.-Masterly pitch-
In; by Christie Matthew-son, backed up by
Silt edfred playing by the men behind him
gave the New York National league cham
pions a victory today over the Philadel
phia American league pennant winners In
the first of the aerie of seven games for
the world's championship. 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. The two teams will play In New
York tomorrow. Score:
NEW YORK.

NEW YORK. Oct. 9. 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

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

WOtXD REVISE FOOT BALL. 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.

Black Kats last night In a runaway match.

LECTURE BY PROF. 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.

WOMAN M CLUB AND CHARITY
Tha (octal science department of the Wo
man's club began It year' work tinder
the direction of Mr. Draper Smith Mon
day afternoon, the meeting being held at
the club rooms In the First Congregational
church. 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 eighth biennial meeting of the Gen
eral Federation of Women's Clubs will open

afternoon conference of one hour. By this
plan but one committee or one conference
will be in session at one time.
The state presidents will mske their re
ports at a special evening session, which, it
is hoped, will be one of the best features
of the program.
Delegates of all foreign clubs will make
their reports at one of the morning ses
sions. Sunday afternoon, June 3, at 4:30 a vesper
service will be held.
One evening will be devoted to a brilliant

evening. . i
The household economics snd pure food
committee will have en exhibition in con
nection with Its report.
The suggested evenings are: 'Women In
Professions," "Journalists. Our Co-laborers,"
and a possible business session, with
the last fnr the president's evening.
The executive board meeting will convene
at 10 a. m., Wednesday, May SO, and the
council meeting at 3 p. m. of the same day.

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.

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. It ia further ordered
that the Omaha Water company be, and
the same is hereby notified that the city
of Omaha will not pay for hydrant rental
me price nxen in Baiil contract, but will
pay the reasonable and fair value of
water furnished through said hydrants for
fire protection, less such damn re anil inaa
as the city of Omaha has sustained and
may sustain on account or the failure of
the Omaha Water comnanv to comulv with
said contract and ordinance.
Reason for Action.
In reciting the reasons for taking this
action, the order declares that the com
pany falls to have, and does not have,
power sufficient to throw streams of water
to the respective elevations required by
contract, specifying the results of recent
tests. Also that the company does not
have capacity and power to afford ample
protection to property against fire, for a
radius of 1,000 feet from Its hydrants, with
out the aid of either steam or hand en
gines, as required. In general, that power
Is lacking to throw streams of water In the
business portion of the city over sixty feet
high, although many business blocks and
other structures are about etghty-flve feet
In height. That the company Is unable
to furnish adequate fire protection to build
ings in the residence district over one
story In height. It Is stated that by reason
of the premises the city has been com
pelled to Incur and Is incurring large an
nual expenditures to maintain fire engines
to secure adequate fire protection. Another
complaint la entered that the company
has failed, neglected and refused to locate.
construct and put In place fire hydrants and
the necessary water mains to connect when
the same have been ordered by the city;
also refusing to remove and relocate fire
hydrants as ordered.
Summing up, the water company Is as-
cused of having failed, neglected and re
fused tb extend Its water system and
mains to meet the demands and growth of
the city. On these grounds the contract
Is ordered terminated.
The attorneys submitted a voluminous
brief analyzing numerous court decisions
In case of like character.
