ACC0UNT0F YORK GAME Student Body Told of 1'ast Victories bjr Team Which Cornea Hera tat Play Tomorrow. A masa meeting was held yesterday noon on the steps of the Omaha High school to arouse Interest among- the students In the York game Saturday. Mr. McMillan, a member of the faculty, Interested In all kinds of athletics at the school, told his recollection of the past York teams, Said he: "York nan always had a strong team, and a fast team. Four years ago the York team came to Omaha with one of the strongest teams of the state. They won over our boys by a large margin, and claimed the championship of the state. The next year our boys went to York with a much stronger team and with the hopes of wiping out the score of the previous year. York won as before, but the game was close and was one of the fiercest games the Omaha team has ever played. Outweighed by York they put up a plucky flght and although they lost, showed that they had the right spirit. This year. Omaha has one of the best teams of Its history and with the proper support from the student body, Is bound to be victorious. J. T. Maxwell, physical director of the young Men's Christian association next spoke a few words of encouragement: "I have seen the boys practice on the field, and they mem to have the making ol a college eleven. Certainly the boys should clean up every team they meet tills fall, and should he able to claim the undisputed championship of the state." Mr. Maxwell rurther told the students that they shauld be loyal to the team, and the only way they could do that was to he on hand Sat urday and cheer for Omaha. Mr. Cams has arranged to have the band on hand Saturday to make a noise. For the last two days the squad has beert practicing at Vinton street park. The field there Is much smoother, and they are able to practice trick plays much better.

FINAL SCORE IS FIVE TO ONE Xalhrniim Pitches Wonderful Hall and Orta Better of Ford In Twlrllnu; Diirl find In the I'lnchea. NEW YORK. Oct. 13-The New York National league chili defeated the New York American team in the first game of their post-season fcrles today, 5 to 1. In a pltehiis' duel between the old master, Christy Muthewson, and the youngster, Russell Kord. who has been the sensation of the American league this season, the Natioiiul hurlcr overshadowed his rival. Mathpwson struck out fourteen, which equals the American league record and ex cels the National league record for this stason. The present series Is the first over held between the two New York clubs and thousands of partisans of both teams witnessed the contest. Mathewson's box art haa rarely ever been equalled In any game In New York. When his opponents threatened to score .Mat hew son as at his best, fanning the ba;.-iuen with a high, fast hall and a fade away. Ford pitched scientific hall, striking out nine of the Nationals, and holding them well In hand with his so-called "mystery hall" until his team's defense weakened In the eighth Inning and four runs on hard hitting fled over the plate. Ford struck out Snodgrass, the heavy hitter, every time he came to the plate. The Americans were the first to score. Knight singled in the second and when caught off first ran to third base on an overthrow by Merkle. Merkle then dropped Sweeney's fly and Knight scored. Mathew son did not waver In the face of this sup port and retired the side on strikes. Giants Score First In Sixth. In the sixth the Nationals chalked up their first tally when Devore bunted safely, stole second, was sacrificed to third and counted on Murphy's Texas leaguer. The defense of the Americans crumpled In the eighth Inning after Mnthewson had surged a healthy single Into right field. Devore attempted to sacrifice, but Ford misplayed the bunt and the National outfielder was safe. The National rooters were now in a frenzy of excitement. No one was out and Doyle laid down a bunt on which Hal Chase made a dazzling play by snipping the ball to Third Baseman Austin, who dropped the throw, thus spoiling a chance for a force-out. Ford uncorked a wild spit ball, which struck Brldwell on the leg, forcing a run. Devlin, Merkle and Powers followed with hits and three more came over the plate. The Americans suffered a hard blow to their post-season hopes today when Catcher Sweeney had his finger badly spilt by a foul tip In the third inning. Mitchell took his place. Score: NATIONALS.

JURY DOES NOT LEARN OF OLD CRIME RECORD Harry Johnson's Counsel 'Keeps Him Off Stand and Former Convle tlon Is Not In. Evidence. By refusing to go on the witness stand and testify In his own behalf, Harry John son, boy burglar and a member of the al leged Omaha burglars' syndicate, on trial In district court for breaking and enter ing yesterday, made It Impossible for Deputy County Attorney Magney to let the Jury know that Johnson already lias a "record" for orlme. In his argument to the Jury J. M. MacFarland, counsel for the boy, pleaded his Innocence, referring to him as a "green lad," and declared he should not be convicted because in all probability some experienced burglar com mitted the crime and left the stolen prop erty In the . boy's room, where it was found. The deputy county attorney was powerless to let the Jury know the true facts. To protect criminals on trial from prejudice because of former wrong doing, the penalty for which they have paid, the law bars the state from introducing evi dence to show previous convictions or pleas of guilty. But if the defendant takes the witness stand, the state may ask him if he ever was convicted of a felony and he must answer.

Agnew, who Is acting as secretary of the annexation committee, has sent the following letter concerning the con test for submission of the consolidation question; To the Editor of The Bee: I see that some ofllciai.a hsve stated that unfair and unjust means were used to secure names to tne petitions lor a vote on tne question ot the consolidation of South vnnaha with Omaha. 1 want to brand such charges as being absolutely and maliciously false, no diuerence who makes them. But from what has been reported to me all kinds of unfair means have been used to get men to take their names from tne petitions. Folicemen have been sent to the. houses of men who signed the petitions Willi re quests thst they take their names off me lists. Men have been offered money and some have been offered positions. The business and professional men who signed the pe titions have been annoyed In their stores and offices and all of It has been done bv men holding official positions by vote of the people of South Omaha. People have been told 1 1 If we are annexed we will have o. "Maxes raised from 77) to lot) per cent, that we will not be given a fair deal hy Omaha and all of that kind of wild talk.

It will be an Interesting fight before the county commissioners Friday morning at 9 o'clock when tney meet to decide on the peiltlon and the lawyers on each side are prepar ing for the fray.

In many ruses, through imita tion nml substitution, a m.mufaehirer has to send bodyguard along with bis goods until they reach the con sumer. Take the case of RUBEROID ROOFING, for instance. RUB EKOID ROOFING was rut on the market nineteen years ago. It was the best roofing then and is the best roofinp now. RUBER OID ROOFING to-day has over three hundred imitators and most of them use the three letters, " oid," at the end of the name of their imitation brand. You can't get n. licttcr reason for rutting llviiKiiotD Hoofino made by The Standard Paint Co., nnil with the trade mark shown here on your roof. Hcberoid Hoofing must be n good deal more than merely a good roofinp; when a new nnd unknown com pany believes that the best way to break into the roofing business js to call itself by the name of its foremost competi tor. ItuBmoio Roofino, made by The Standard Paint Co., costs a little more when you buy it, but a great deal less when you use it, than any other roolng made. The first cost of roofing means nothing. The ultimate question is, "How long will it last?" Another advantage of Rubehoid Roofing is that it is also made in permanent colors of RED and GREEN. The reason Rubcroid col ors are permanent is that they are not painted on they are built into the fabric, and so cannot peel off. When you go out to buy roofing steer a clear course through the tangle of imitators, and get RUBEROID ROOFING tTiuDa mu nta n.s.rai. orv made by the company who are giving you this information now with the trade-marks shown here, outside the roll, and stamped on every seven feet of the roll itself. Every other competing roofing was put on the market after RUBEROID ROOFING, and has since trailed it not only in age but in quality.
