TKILAUKJ-rHIA, Oct. IS. In a nmc
that filled with thrill 11 from the start
almost to the finish- tha Fhllade Iphla
AmTlcsn league champion this afternoon
rimlniiitered rlefeat lo the Chicago Na
tinnnl lti rhnmplone before mora than
21,000 pfraonn. The eoore wa to 3.
It was one of the most exciting gimrs
evi-r 'played on the American l'-aiariie
ground in thin rlty. -It . abounded In aen
saiiDtmJ fleldinw and terrific battins and
th- llK. pcraHrlnn crowd was frequently
bronchi to Its feet with wild enthusiasm
as player after player made soma brilliant
slop or throw or lined out a airmailing hit
Into th erowd. Tha spectator received
a shock when Pitcher Coombs showed un
pfadlneaa. but this wai quickly forgotten
a little later when the flchtlng "'Athletics';
forced to the front. In the aeventh Innlnir.
when Captain Chnnce'a splendid machine
whs crushed under a cannonading of hits,
the big crowd's enthusiasm knew no
bounds. Almost everything that kob Into
a bane ball Kama and makes It onq of the
moat exciting; of outdoor sports waa In
evidence. There were errora on both aides,
a generous contribution of bases on balls,
that frequently had pitchers In trouble,
long hits, fast base running and lightning
double plays.
Cnlllaa ia Star.
The hero of the afternoon, who ahone as
brilliantly In hla department of the game
aa did Mender In yesterday's contest, was
"Eddie" Collins, the star second baseman
of tha home team. This former captain of
the Columbia university nine several times
electrified the crowd by hit sensational
work.
The score books show that In his five
turns at the plate he reached first base
every time by making three hits, two of
them doubles, receiving a base on balls
and making a force play. He scored two
runs and eent two home, accepting ten
chances without an error, figured In two
sensational plays that stopped Chicago
from running the bases and last, but not
least, the champion base runner stole twice
on the king of tha National league back
stops.' Kling.
Collins' work on the paths greatly de
lighted the crowd. Mordecal Brown kept
Collins as clone aa lie could to the first
base bag. In the sixth Inning Collins out
guessed the Chicago battery three times.
Brown pitching three wide balls for Kling
to line the ball to second, but each time
Collins appeared to divine the play and
waited. Then he made his dash and went
to first aa a perfect throw reached the
bag Just an Instant too late.
Coombs pitched a most erratic game,
giving nine bases on balls. He got Into
trouble In the first Inning by giving two
of the first three men up basest on balls.
He got away with the Inning with but
one run against his team. At several other
stages of the Contest he was In trouble, but
the brilliant work of the men behind him
pulled hlin out of difficulty. He seemed
to show better form when the bases were
occupied than w hen they were clear. This
Is shown by the fact that Chicago had
fourteen men left on bases.
Cults ot at Reat.N "
Chicago' Inside play did not seem to be
In working order, for, with the men on
Iimth arid Coombs, unsteady, sum Bharp
piece of fielding would spoil the chance
alter there was every prospect of a, score.
JdoidoiHi brown pitched fairly good ball
In the early stages of the game and was
iilte BUiuly. The Phlladc Iphlans began
to touch htrti up In the third Inning and
In the' be ve nth he was hit to all corners
of tha field. -Nine, men went to bat In
this Inning and scored six runs on three
doubles, two singles, a base on balls, an
nor and a sacrifice. Alter that Inning
he was taken out and was succeeded by
Rlchlo. Id the aeventh Inning he pitched
the "White Klcphants" hit him thirteen
times for a totul of seventeen bases.
Chicago scored lu first run at the be
ginning of the game. After Sheckard had
received a bane on balls und was forced
out by Bchulte, Hot mun was given four
balls. Chance's single filled the bases and
Schulte scored on Zimmerman's long sac
rifice fly.
Fast double plays ended the chances

ing of the game with tue Omaha High
school "Cub'' Wiley said: "We are not dis
couraged by the defeat administered us by
Omaha. I could not attach any blame to
my men for the poor work done In the first
half, when Omaha piled up the scores.
They were all new men, principally farm
ers' sons, who had never seen' the game
Played, let alone play o.n a team, and when
Omaha came at us, playing whirlwind foot
ball, my men took stage trjght.
"That York for years was able to defeat
Omaha Is considered most remarkable,
when It Is known that York has 100 to select
from and Omaha has The present
York team has less experienced players
than any team representing York High and
yet It has material en this team that will
make history for York High school if they
stay and learn the game us fast as they

The colonel told the crowd that the only

PUMPKINS SCARCE FOR SHOW
J. L. McDonough Reports Vegetable
Exhibits Shy.
PLENTY OF GRAIN AND GRASS
In Ion Pacific Man Says Nebraska
llaa Fine Exhibit with Monster
Horn aad Meer and drains, and
Will Be Beat Ever.
An exhibit of land products that will ex
cel the famous Union Paclftc exhibit shown
here last year Is promised Omaha by the
road for its Western Land Exhibit show to
be held here beginning January 18. George
L. McDonough, colonization agent for the
road, has taken charge' of the Nebraska
state products and Is determined to make
this state shine out above the show put
on by rival states.
At present plenty of grains and grasses
of the best quality are being handed In
ror both the Chicago and the Omaha show
but there Is not a sign of any of tl:e fam
ous Nebraska pumpkins, squashes and
other vegetables.
"Why' says McDonough with a wink,
"the people In that Chicago land show will
think we don't even make good pumpkin
Pies for the hoboes out here.
"If I can only get hold of the pumpkins
and vegetables nccesary to set off the
grains and grasses In our show 1 will have
ceverythlng complete. There Is a good stor
age room ready to keep the things until
the show Is ready to use them.
"That huge Nebraska steer and the big
L3o-pound hog will be the attraction to
draw the crowd. We are going to have
the steer Bet up- on a raised platform
thirty-two feet above the floor In Chicago
so everybody can see what Nebraska
ralHes."
William Lonergan and J. II. Taylor, both
of Douglas county are arranging for the
Nebraska exhibit In Chicago, this state and
Colorado. A yoming and Kansas being
placed together In one end of the big hall,
wnere the Union Pacific Is advertising
western land products. In the center of
the exhibitions of these states is the big
lecture hall of tho railroad, where seven
lecturers will take turns explaining farm
ing methods with the help of atureopticon
slides. ,
Mr. McDonough has Just returned from
Pittsburg, where he went to settle the
placing of the Union Pacific, Colorado and
Nebraska exhibit. The big stuffed hog is
attracting lota of attention, he says, one
newspaper .figuring out that at 10 cents a
pound It was worth over 1130.

One of the features of the Pittsburg show,

contest In essay work. Prises In gold have
been arranged for and all school children

BUT ROOFING LIKE LIFE ,
INSURANCE.
TTlifn you bur life insurance yov
don't care a r.ip what the policy is
worth when you buy it. You watit
to know what it will hn worth in
the future. It's the same with roof
ing. It doesn't matter what it looks
like when you buy it. The only
matter you are interested in is how
well, and how long it will wear on
your roof.
One incontestable, absolute fact
ynu know when you buy Kvberoii
Roofino, manufactured by The
Standard Paint Co. of New York
it stands tip under summer and win
ter weather conditions better than
any other roofing made, and it lasts
longer. The proof of roofing is in
its wear. The proof of Ruberoid
Roofing value liet in thti fact that
roofs which were roofed with it nine
teen years ago are ttill in perfect
condition.
Asphalt is not weather-proof.
The oil which is present in its com
position dries out and leaves pores
open to rotting moisture. Tin and
iron are rot as lasting as they wero
of old, cost more than Ri'beroid,
need paint, and skilled labor to lay
and repair. Tho same conditions
apply to shingles, with the further
danger from fire. Tar roofs are
hard to lay. Tar melts and smells
in summer, and when their oil evap
orates tar roofings rot.
Other ready roofings are surfaced
with sand, quartz, mica, and even
road dust These materials are use
less except to give Increased weight,
which helps to deceive you when
buying, but have no value for wear.
Ri'beroid Roofino resists heat
and cold and is absolutely water
proof. Another advantage of RUBER
OID ROOFING is that it is also
made in ' permanent
colors of RED and
GREEN. The rea
son Ruberoid colors
are permanent is that
they are not painted
on they are built Into
the fabric, and so can
not peel off.
RU3ER0ID ROOFING
(xaAUkSAEK afca.u.a.FAT.urr.)
!s so good that it has
over three hundred imi
tators. Look for the trade marks shown
here stamped on every seven feet of
its under side and on the outside of,
each roll.
BUY RIGHT.
Every tune you buy a
cigar with a nice point
and a pretty band you pay
for something you can t
enjoy. Cobs are the sen
sible smoker nothing is
good about them except
the tobacco.
Cob are separately wrapped
