FRIDAY, OCTOBER 9. Cubs Play Tigers First Game In Detroit WORLD'S SERIES WILL BEGIN sraoM DETROIT, Mich.—The series be tween the Chicago Cubs, who won the pennant of the National League yesterday, and the Detroit Tigers, for the world championship, will begin in Detroit tomorrow, Saturday. Sis games were arranged by the national commission in session at Cincinnati, and the second, the Sunday game, will be played in Chicago. Now that the national champion ship has been won and the Cubs for the third successive time are winners, fans throughout the country are fig uring out the winner of the world's championship series Taking into consideration the run away race (he Chicagos made of the series with the Detroits last year, not a few are under the iinpreßSion that they will once more do the trick by wallopning the Tigers, who again face the Cubs for the world’s champion ship. On the other hand, the followers of the Detroitß are confident of a victory, as the Tigers are in a‘much better physical condition to battle for the honors this year. That this is apparent, can be seen by the great finish Jennings’ aggregation made. It is almost a foregone conclusion that much will depend upon the pitch ers of both teams. The Chicagos will look to Brown. Pfeister and Rueibach td land the flag for them, while De troit places its faith in Donovan, Mul lin and Killian. All these stars have been much worked during the season, owing to the battle royal for the honors, and it's nothing more than a toss-up be tween them. The series for the world’s cham pionship began in 1903,when Boston, of the American League, and Pitts burg. were the opponents, the hon ors going to Boston, Boston winning five out,of seven games played. There was no series in 1904, owing to some disagreement between the Giants, winners of the National, and Boston, winner of the American flag. The Giants won the world's honors in 1905, beating the Athletics four games out. Of five. The series was most, interesting, inasmuch as each victory for the winner was a white wasn for the loser. The White Sox beat the Cubs for the honors in 1906, while the Cubs won from Detroit last year. Augusta Paint & Wall Paper Co 307 Mclntosh, Corner Ellis.

CUBS BEAT GIANTS FOR PENNANT 4TOI NEW YORK.—A terrific batting ral ly by the Chicagos in the third in ning of yesterday's game decided the last game of the season in favor of 1,.e Cubs, giving them the champion ship of the National League over their rivals, the Glauts. and entitling them to meet the Detroits in the world championship series. The crowd was one of the great est that ever assembled to witness a ball game. The intense interest felt in the game was shown by the fact some of the spectators had been at the park gates since the night before, and when the park gates opened at 11 o'clock,’there were 5,000 ready for admission. Every possible seat was filled, all standing room was taken, and every vantage point around the Polo grounds, from which the game could be viewed, was packed with a throng of cheering, anxious humanity. The Giants took the lead In tin initial inning. Tenney was hit by the ball and Herzog walked. Bres nahan struck out und Kling dropped the ball. Kling foxily threw to third and Herzog bit. Bresnahan was out anyway, and Herzog, caught, in the chase, was also out. Donlin hit to right for two bases and Tenney scored. In the third inning, Chicago get very busy. Tinker smashed out a long one for three bases, not going qujte to the crowd. Kling singled on a line to left, scoring Tinker. Brown sacrificed. Sheckard died out. Then Evers walked, and Schulte doubled. Kling tallying. Chance smashed a hard one out for two bags, scoring Evers and Schulte. Stelnfeldt fan ned. Both Brown and Mathewson now pitched better ball. In the seventh the Giants had a magnificent chance, but the batting was off color. Dev lin singled. McCormick singled, and Brown, rather rattled, now walked Bridwell. Mathewson was yanked out and Larry Doyle pulled off the bench and sent in to hat for the big pitcher. But Larry proved a disap pointment. for he popped out to Kling. Tenney drove a liner to Schulte. On the throw-in Devlin [scored, but Herzog shot one down to Tinker, who made a peach of a stop and a quick throw to first put the New Yorkers on the blink for keeps.

The Giants' great twirler has not won a game from Chicago when Brown opposed him since June 13, 1905. On that day Matty established a record for the year. While twirling against the miner, he shut the Cubs out without the semblance of a hit. Since then the three-fingered marvel has had the better of every argument he has engaged in with Matty. Luck has many times played a prominent figure in the Chicago victories, but never once aince that eventful day has Dame Fortune smiled upon "Big Six" when he Is pitted against Brown. No matter what kind of a game Matty pitches against the Cubs, no matter how small the amount of hits the Cubs get off him, and no matter how hard the Giants are hitting Mor decai, there has always been some mysterious element that makes Ihe three-fingered freak emerge a victor over the Giants' idol.

Natural iy, by tills system, the last two miles of the race were practically the only ones on which many of the large number of spectators who attend fliiv event each year could follow the runners for any long distance. The difference in this year's method of conducting the race lies in the ad vantage of almost the entire ten mile course being under the observe tion of the many spectators. This year's teams will be selected this week or early next week, and the race will he pulled off on Mon day afternoon, October lb. The foot hall season will open on the follow in? Monday.
