Baker and Mclnnis. Rudolph singled to center. Moran doubled between center and left, Rudolph being held at third. Evers worked Shawkey to the limit and the count was three and two when he pickled the next ball to center, scoring Rudolph and Moran, and the crowd certainly did howl. Evers was caught off first after Shawkey had made a half-dozen plays on him.

It was pretty fast work by Shawkey and Mclnnis. Two runs, three hits, no errors, none left. Score: Braves 3, Athletics 1. SIXTH INNING For the Athletics, Eddie Collins hit a liner over Rudolph's head which was so hot that Rudolph didn't dare touch it, which he might have done with his bare hand. He elected to let it go as a hit, but "Rabbit" didn't allow it to go for any such a thing.

He shot over toward second, got the ball on the first bound as it came sizzling off the ground and threw Collins out at first by 15 feet.

SUMMARY OF WAR NEWS By J. C. O'LEARY. FENWAY PARK, Oct 13-The fourth game of the World's Series started at 2 o'clock with Rudolph in the box for the Braves and Shawkey pitching for the Athletics. FIRST INNING For Philadelphia, Murphy was out, Evers to Schmidt.

Old-ring fouled out to Gowdy. Collins singled to center. Baker flied to Whitted. No runs, one hit, no errors, one left. In Boston's half, Baker took Moran's bounder with one hand and threw him out at first.

Evers hit the first ball pitched, which Baker nipped over third base and threw Johnny out. Connolly flied out to Oldring. No runs, no hits, no errors, none left. SECOND INNING Deal made a play on Mclnnis' bounder that drew a cheer from the crowd when he threw "Stuffy" out at first. Walsh hit to left field and Connolly misjudged the fly and it hit the low fence and went for two bases.

Ma-ranville took Barry's grounder and after driving Walsh back to second threw Jack out at first. Rudolph worked Schang very artistically, and the count got down finally to three and two, then he struck Wallie out. No runs, one hit, no errors, one left. For Boston, Whitted hit the ball on the nose and it went on a line into Old-ring's mit. The ball never was more than 15 feet above the ground and "Rube" did not have to take three steps to place himself for the catch.

Schmidt hit a hot one which Shawkey blocked and threw Charlie out. Gowdy put one into the left field bleachers away up in the corner, but it was foul. He worked Shawkey to the limit and finally was rewarded by a base on balls. The "Rabbif'hit to Barry and Gowdy was forced at second, Barry to Collins. No runs, no hits, no errors, one left.

THIRD INNING Shawkey struck out on three pitched balls. Charlie Deal robbed Murphy of at least a two-base hit when he stopped his hot bounder as it was shooting over third base and threw him out at first. Deal went after the ball so fast that he had to take a couple of strides into foul territory before he could check himself, turned and threw the runner out at first. It was a grand play and the 'crowd showed its appreciation of it. Oldring singled to center, and with Collins at bat, tried to steal second, but "Rabbit" had the ball waiting for him to slide into on a beautiful throw by Gowdy.

No runs, one ha, no errors, one left. For Boston, Deal flied to Oldring. Rudolph was out. Barry to Mclnnis, and Moran went out through the same agencies. No runs, no hits, no errors, none left.

FOURTH INNING Eddie Collins hit a hot one between first 'and second on which Evers made a nice play and had Eddie out at first easily. Baker singled through Schmidt, who blocked the ball, which bounded off his glove and hit him Shawkey p. 2 0 1 2, 0 3 0 Pennock 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 Totals 31 1 7 9 24 17 1 Innings 123456789 Boston 00012000 3 Philadelphia 00001000 01 Two-base hits, Walsh, Shawkrj, Moran.

Lieut Col Maritz, a Boer officer, together with a number of his officers and men, has gone over to the German forces of the German protectorate, and is in rebellion against the Government of the Union. The proclamation declares there is reason to believe that the Government of German Southwest Africa is endeavoring to corrupt other citizens of the Union, with promises of the establishment of a republic in South Africa. The official statement issued in Paris this afternoon declares that the Allies are making progress along nearly the entire line oi battle. Germans are occupying Lille, the statement says. It has been decided to remove the Belgian Government to France.

King Albert, however, remains with his troops in the field. Some of the officials of the Belgian Government and the members of the diplomatic corps accredited to Belgium already have left Ostend for Havre.

Learn About It THE WEATHER. Gowdy with a very expressive colloquialism. "We've watched him play whenever we could since he has been In the National League. When we let him know ve were comuif he would have an off day and wouldn't make a first-class showing, while the rest of the time he seemed to be playing a line game. So the last few times we came we did not let htm know of It and he played a lot better.

"The last time Bosto came to Cincinnati we watched him catch a double-header. In the fir.st km me lie made three hits and played great baseball, but between the Karnes he round out we were on hand, ami wan away off form In the second game. That settled us, for the World's Series. When Hank asked us to come, we made believe we couldn't take In the big series." The fact is "Hunk" has had this peculiar nervousness In the presence of his folks since he was "Ijnee-hlgh to a grasshopper."

Pennock was sent in to pitch for the Athletics and Mann was sent to bat in place of Connolly in Boston's half.

Leslie flied to center. Whitted singled over third, Baker spoiling a double by batting the ball down. Schmidt singled through Eddie Collins. Whitted going to third. Gowdy was called out on strikes.

Schmidt drew a throw to second, hoping that a double steal might be worked.

No runs, two hits, no errors, two left. SEVENTH INNING For the Athletics, Walsh was walked.

Mann was now playing left field for Boston. Walsh went to second on a wild pitch. Barry struck out and Walsh was doubled up at second on a quick throw, Gowdy to Evers, Johnny making one of his famous one-hand plays. Schang was called out on strikes and Rudolph was given a great cheer as he walked to the bench. No runs, no hits, no errors, none left.

EIGHTH INNING For the Mackmen, Pennock was thrown out at first by Evers. Big Bill James went out to warm up, although there was no apparent reason to think he would be needed in the game.

Eddie Collins, the first pitched. Rudolph threw the next one up pitched. Rudolph threw the next one up around his chin and struck him out on the next one, Collins taking a swing at it. Baker fouled off the first ball pitched, was fooled on the next one and was In the hole for tw strikes. He was then thrown out at first by Evers.

Mclnnis was thrown out by Deal, and It was four straight. Final score: Braves 3, Athletics 1. SERIES SCORE: BRAVES 4, ATHLETICS 0. Fearing lest their presence should make to keep warm. It was more like football than baseball weather.

There were about 1000 unreserved seats In center and rightfield still vacant at that time and a steady stream was pouring into them, but it was certain that by 2 o'clock every one would be gone. Every reserved seat, of course, was sold long ago. Outside the park dozens of speculators were offering to buy or sell, but seemed to be doing very little business. Rooters' band was heard outside the park. There was an interval while they transacted their brief business at the I gate.

The bleachers were now filled to the last seat and only the Rooters' gal-1 lery was left blank in the great slanting ring of humanity. It was 1:43 when the Rooters came on 1 the fifeld, and the center and focus of the sporting world today was ready to be lit "Tell by the Taste" OH YOU FAN! 5a -t up. John F.

The same superabundant vitality so noticeable heretofore vws at once shown in the Braves' practice in the cool weather. They frisked about like boys, literally "playing" through a World's Championship, when thousands of dollars hanging on the day's result would seem to make the doings a serious matter. Overcoats and sweaters were the rule today in the bleachers, and the picture was even more somber than yesterday.

Only the white-coated peanut boys relieved the dark mass. An interesting fact was the astonishing proportion of the space in a picture of a crowd that is occupied by the actual faces. The megaphone quartet at this point came on the field, and bemoaned "The high cost of living," but the- singers were over back of third, and the great mass of the audience was the full width of the park away from them, imagination furnished much of the pleasure.

On Connolly's throw to catch Baker, Stuffy tried to make second, but he was out, Connolly to Deal to Evers. The first thing that Ru- i dolph did to Walsh was to put him in the hole for two strikes.

Then he tried to coax him into going after a couple of wide ones, but Walsh simply gave him the derisive leer. Dick, finding that Walsh would not bite at the wide ones, shot one over the plate at which Walsh I swung and missed, and then walked out to center field. No runs, two hits, no er- rors. one left. For Boston, Evers had all the time! there was to wait, and he waited until he got four bad balls.

Connolly hit a hot grounder at Collins, which Eddie fum-bld long enough to lose all chance to force Evers at second, but he threw i Connolly out at first. Whitted singled to right. Collins blocking the ball so that Evers was held at third. Collins evidently hurt his right ankle and time was called. He limped around in pain.

Play being resumed, the Braves pulled something of a squeeze play. Schmidt hit the ball into the ground and at the I same time Evers made a break for the plate. The ball bounded over Shawkey's head and Barry took it. Jack had no chance to get Evers at the plate or Whitted at second, and so had to throw Schmidt out at first. Gowdy hit to Shawkey, and was thrown out at first, One run, one hit, no errors, one left.

Score: Braves Athletics 0. FIFTH INNING For the Barry bounded one over Deal's head which Maranville got back of third base, and threw to first, but Barry beat the throw, which was perfect, and so the 1 hit went for a single.

"Hank" nervous and spoil his showing in the game, they crept into Boston under an assumel name without "Hank" discovering it. and yesterday from the grandstand watched their big boy hammer out the hits which won the game and put Boston one step nearer the World's Championship In baseball. This morning they passed at a Boston hotel. Mr and Mr Gowdy were so sure that "Hank" would get nerved up if he knew they were here, that they determined to see the Boston amea without letting their son know of It.

That is where Connie Mack and his band of fast-traveling ball players lost out. Big "Hank," unburdened of the responsibility of having two pair of fond eyes turned on him from the grandstand and believing hla parents a few hundred miles away in Columbus, came across with the "wallop" every time it was needed. But If he had known for a minute that his mother and father were only a few feet away from him all the time, he would have commenced to tremble with nervousness and his whole game might have been spoiled, Mrs Gowdy said. "It always makes Horace nervous when he knows we are watching him." she explained, "so we decided that he shouldn know of our being here until after the games In Boston. Horace (this is a more civilized version of Hank'') likes to please UHe so much that when he knows our eyes are on him he gets terribly nervous for fear he may In These Days We Are Glad to Be Able to Make a Reduction in Price Stanzalone Coffee REDUCED 2 cents per pound To 25c per pound flen.
