St. Chat 14 avenue and Nortii Boulevard was completed as rapidly as possible'. "It is not my duty to superintend street improvements." said the mayor, "but when the work lags and the- citi zens complain to me I'm going to do all in my power to provide relief.” Mayor Winn made a personal inspec tion of the grading work at the junction of tile Peachtrees and Baker streets to day. He found that the repaving of the I street is being held up now by laying of the steam heating pipes and conduits of tile Georgia Railway and Power Company and the replacing of the poles of the Southern Bell Telephone Com pany. He wrote to both of these companies insisting that they rush the work and notify him how ."'ion they can complete it. He said lie was going before the county commission Saturday to find out how soon the work of repaving would be begun. The county officials have agreed to repave the sleet. Clifford L. Anderson, chairman of the county commission, said today that the county' conWnisgion was not respon sible for the delay in the work.

Stahl’s Wallop Sends Two Runs in—Giants Beginning to Find Collins. By Billy Smith. BOSTON. MASS.. Oct. 9.—To day’-: game between the Red Sox and the Giants ended in a tie, the game being called on ac count of darkness. It was a nerve-racking battle from start to finish. FIRST INNING. Today’s game opens up like a whirl- This striking pho tograph shows Chris ty Mathewson just as he has delivered his celebrated “fa de -’ ’ perhaps the ■ most effective “curve i ball” any pitcher ever threw. The wear and tear of hurling this arm-destroying ball for many years has told on Matty. But he has taken a long rest, and when he went to the box • this afternoon he felt sure the “fade away” would be as mystifying as of old. ci? wind. Snodgrass puts his shoulders into the second ball Collins heaved and drives it out for a two-bagger. The New York delegation breaks loose at this. Then down go their hopes again. Doyle, with orders to “get on,” failed and goes out on strikes Becker swings at the first hall pitched him in this series and grounds to Steve Yerkes, who throws him out to Stahl. Snod grass takes third on this, and with Murray up it looks as though some thing might be doing At this [Kiint Silk O'Loughlln stops proceedings to shoo off the field a band of photographers. "Beat it." was O'Loughlin's order and they beat. Col lins gets Murray in the hole light off the reel with two strikes In a row. Forced to hit. "Red" smacks the ball to Stahl and there is a quick play when Collins covers first and takes his man ager's throw. No runs, one hit, no errors Fletcher at It Again. The Red Sox put their first man on, but it is a c os. chance. Matty has them two-and-two on Hooper when he slips an easy one by Mathewson. "Big Six" reaches for it. but in vain. Then comes the first steal of the season, neatly .executed by Hooper, who is never in danger from Meyers’ throw. Yerkes then grounds one down to Fletcher, who messes it up and finally errors, letting Steve go safe. Hooper does not advance on this. Speaker then slips over a safe bunt and the ba.es are choked. With a pair of strikes on Lewis, he grounds to Herzog and in a close play at the plate Hooper is out. Gardner soaks one down toward sec ond and is out front I>o.vie to Merkle, but Yerkes slips over with the first run of the game Then Jake Stahl deliv ers.

He waits ont a couple of balls and then when Col lins tries to groove one lie meets it fair and the ball hurtles off to right field. Hooper makes a grand run for It and fields it in time to give Herzog a slide into third. Then Chief Meyers connects. It is one of his tremendous wallops, impelled with all tite force of .lie bmg si bat in organized hns.-b-'H And it meets Gardner fair in the face. It is a tough wallop and it looked for a minute or two as though the Sox third baseman is out. On Meyers’ hit Herzog scores. Fletcher then flies to Hooper and Mathewson forces Meyers.

Gaidner grounds to Doyle and retires al first. No runs, no hits, no errors. FOURTH INNING. Murray shoes more world's series class with s triple to center. Tied had previously fouled off a couple when he met the third one square. When Her zog comes up Jake Stahl raises the distress signal and Hall and O’Brien go out io warm up. It appears that Collins is slipping. With the ball strike proposition standing three-two, Herzog raises one to Speaker. It is a long one and a clean sacrifice fly, on wh'-lt Murray scores. Meyers rios nff a single and Fletcher comes up. It is another chance tor the shortstop, but, as usual, he flunks out, with a fly to Hooper. Fletcher si either scared or lacking class. One un, two hits, no errors. Stahl and .Mutliewson opened the second half with a duel. Matty slips the ll.st two straight over, with noth Ing on but the covet Then h<- wastes a couple.

On the next four pitched balls Snodgrass goes out on strikes. Doyle manages to meet the ball, but it is only four a fly to No runs, no hits, no error*. When Matty goes in the box he looks desperate. He is never a man to en joy a losing game, and his good right arm is seldom at its level best unless he is winning. McGraw experiences a change of heart at this stage of the game and orders Snodgrass and Mur ray to change places Then Mathew son lets go at Collins, but he takes no chances. First a hall, then a strike, then a bail, then a strike, then a ball and then the third strike and Collins is out. Then Hooper pulls a hit. It Is his third and when it sails out Into safe territory there is a roar that shakes the Bunker Hill monument and rocks the dome of the state house. Not satisfied witli this achievement, Hooper at onee steals second, but it is a wasted effort, for Yerkes lights into the ball tnr a triple and Hooper walks home with an other Red Sox run. Speaker has a swell chance to add to the Giants’ rout, but be overlooks It with a liner to Fletcher, who doubles Yerkes at first. SIXTH INNING. Becker is still helpless in Collins’ hands and is out from Yerkes to Stah on a feeble swat. Murray Is the de livering kid, however, and rips off a one-sacker to right. Merkle hoists to Speaker.
