To the man on a salary, credit is necessary; and, if he is honest and industrious, he is as deserving of it as the man of means, who has little need of credit. And we offer 'it to every deserving man, regardless of his financial condition we offer a credit that is liberal, generous, free of all unpleasant features. We demand no security, we ask no annoying questions and we make no charge for the accommodation; so lack of ready money is no reason why any honest man should be without needed home comforts. He can select , all the furniture and furnishings he wants from our broad stocks, have practically his own time to pay for his purchases and make payments in sums such as can be spared without causing the slightest inconvenience.

Boston concen- I trated its energies In the fourth in ning of today's game of the world se ries and squeezed In two runs, which was just enough to annex, 2 to 1, the third of the contests from the Chicago Nationals. The one-run., margin was in constant danger, however, and" it was not until Pick, Chicago second baseman, was caught at the plate for the third out In the last half of the ninth Inning that victory perched finally on the Boston dugout. Chicago's lone tally came in the fifth Inning and was tVrgely a fluke, hut Mitchell's men never quit trying, and in their half of the ninth started a desperate rally, which might have tied the score and run the game into extra innings had not Pick, in a frantic ef fort to cross the plate, thrown, the chance away by reckless baserunning. "Hippo" Vaughn elected to come back In an atempt, to retrieve the hon orable defeat administered to him i the first game of the series. '3 pitched splendid ball, save for the fatal fourth. Hooper, the first man to face the big Chicago lefthander, gave an intimation of what the final result would be by pulling a twisting singl back of third, but nothing came of in that inning. Submarine Delivery Sinks Cnbn. Mays, with his so-called submarine delivery, was the main obstacle In the way of a Cub victory.. Mays throws an' old-f ashioneji ' underhand ball with a windup which doubles him in such fashion that the uninitiated might think him hunting for fish worms. He had a variety of bait for the.Chl cago batters slow ones that floated up. to the plate like puff balls in a fog, varied with a fast one with a dart and jump like a patent bass bait, and the Cub sluggers bit freely at all he offered. ' In the fatal, or festive fourth, accord ing to which team the fan prefers, Whiteman, . veteran of many a hard contest, who figured in the run-getting for Boston in every game of this series, got himself in front of one of Vaughn's hooks and traveled free to first. He tarried a moment on second when Mc Innis singled, and scored when Schang poled one of Vaughn's offerings safely, Mclnnla advancing to third. Scott dumped a bounder in front of the plate, and Vaughn fumbled it long enough so that Mclnnis flashed across the plate with the winning run, and Scott was safe at first, credited with a hit. Thomas singled to right, and it looked like more trouble for the Cubs, but Flack made one of his characteristic bullet throws, and Schang,' trying to score from sec ond, was out at the plate. Mays ended the jubilee by a fly to center". Pick's Scratch Goes for Double. Pick was the player to profit by the fluke in the Chicago half of the fifth. His gentle tap went toward Scott with frolicsome bounds, like a pup seeking its master, but at the crucial moment it decided to bite Scott ' on the leg, and went rolling out into the outfield for a double. Deal filed out, but Killefer delivered an honest hit to left and Pick scored. The highly partisan crowd, its in terest at last aroused to a- pitch when even allied victories, the impending ! bond issue and other divertissements were forgotten, stood up to a man and yelled for a winning rally when Chi cago came to bat in the ninth, and al most got what they asked for. Paskert and Merkle expired lngloriously on in field plays, but Pick slammed i grounder at Shean and beat the throw by a hair. Manager Mitchell, still fight ing, sent In Barber to bat for Deal. The pinch-hitter was in a nerve-racking place. Every eye was upon him, and heroic honors, including the Croix De Baseball, were within his grasp. Pick stole second and went to third on a passed ball. Schang threw to catch him and Thomas, at third for Boston, fumbled the throw. The ball rolled only a few yards away, but Pick, aris ing from his side and without a look around, dashed for the plate. Thomas recovered the pellet and his throw caught Pick far off the plate. The game was over, and Pinch Hitter Bar ber's great opportunity was snatched from him before any one knew whether he might have delivered the hit which would have tied the score. Crowd Largest of Series. The largest crowd of the season, 27, 054 paid admissions, turned out and en joyed the pastime, but at that there were vacant seats. Few of those oc cupied were vacated until the last man was out, however. Clouds menaced at times; a few drops of rain fell, and locomotives in nearby yards sent a smoke screen over the field. At other times the sun shone brightly. Whiteman, who has starred at bat on the paths and in the field in this series, cut off what seemed a sure run for Chicago in the fourth inning.- With one out, Mann hit and reached second. Paskert lifted the sphere clear to the left field fence. It looked like a triple at least, but Whiteman speeded after it like a youngster and bumped into the barrier with the ball safely in his glove. Ho was vociferously cheered. With the score 2 games to 1 in their favor, the Boston players leaving to play the remaining games on their home grcfunds were in a jubilant mood, but the National Leaguers could not be properly labeled as down-hearted. Many In the crowd were Inclined to criticise Manager Mitchell for send ing Vaughn- to the slab with but one day's rest and further for permitting him to remain after signs of weakness appeared, as there is .no. scarcity of B Hooper.r. 8 14 0 OiFlack.r. . .

SMAIilj CROWD OFF FOB BOSTON BENEFIT SEAT SALE OPENS WEDNESDAY Women Will Be Admitted to Boxing Contests for Mili- tary Men. BOXERS ALREADY TRAINING War-Time Economy Seen in Travel ing Arrangements of Clnbs. CHICAGO, Sept. 7. Smiles were writ ten all over the faces of the victorious Red Sox when they boarded the train tonight for Boston to engage the Cubs in the fourth game of the series Mon day. The small number of persons making the trip was in direct contrast to the world's series trips of former years, when special trains carried; the rival clubs and hundreds of fans. The war has eliminated the specials this season. Instead additional cars were attached to a regular Michigan Central train. The Boston players and Harry Frazee, president of the club, and his party occupied two cars, the Chicago club one, the newspaper writers another, and members of the National Baseball Com mission and their friends the fifth. The players occupied upper and lower berths and no more space was re served than was absolutely necessary. In order to comply with Government orders restricting travel. The train is scheduled to- arrive In Boston at 10:50 o clock tomorrow night. President Weeghman of the Chicago club and a party of 50 friends will leave for Boston tomorrow.

Sept 7. "When I said last night that the Bed Sox were de termlned to return to Boston with a 2- to-1 edge in the series, I.was not boast ing," said Manager Barrow, of the Bos ton Club, tonight. "We are in the lead and intend to remain there. I am not ready to say who shall pitch Monday. but it is not unlikely that Ruth will be used." 'It was anybody's game up to the last minute and the effort put forth Dy tne cups clearly shows that de termination," said Fred Mitchell, man ager of the Cubs. "Boston took the first game, Chicago the second and Bos ton the t'aird. Now the Cubs will bal ance the scale again by taking the fourth. Vaughn got the worst of the breaks today, although he was not in as good form as on the opening day. It is probable I shall use Hendrix in the opener at Boston." CHICAGO FAST S PAT $100,463 Total Attendance at Three Games Is 66,368; Scalpers Reap Harvest. CHICAGO, Sept. 7.

JAMES J. RICHARDSON. Seat sales for the monster benefit boxing smoker to be staged at the Ice Palace Friday night, September 20, will open next Wednesday. 1'hls decision was reached yesterday, when the three members of the boxing commission ap pointed by Chairman Frank E. Wat kins were In conference with William T. Pangle, whose experience in the sale of tickets will prove of great assist ance to the commissioners In making arrangements for the disposal of the 8000 seats which will be put on eale for the big flstic entertainment. , Pangle's suggestion that the sale of red, white and blue pasteboards be handled 'systematically was adopted. The fraternal and civic organizations are going to be asked to assist in the big drive to sell tickets, and the com missioners yesterday decided to sell tickets "via the coupon system. Instead of giving each lodge or club a block of tickets to dispose of they will sell cou- . pons which will be redeemed at a downtown ticket office. In this man ner nobody will be allowed to corral the choice seats. ' It will be a case of first come first served, and as the ad vanced demand for pasteboards indi cates that the big smoker will pack the fans in tight at the Ice Palace, the coupon system seems a move in tha right direction. No Tickets to Be Reserved. There will be no reservations of tickets. Money talks in this case and and. only those presenting cash or cou pons at the downtown ticket office will be taken care of. Under no considera tion will the boxing commission stand ' for advance orders of pasteboards un less accompanied by cash or money or der. No checks will be accepted. TJn- . der the arrangement to be followed by the boxing comm.ssion there will be no chance that favoritism will be shown anyone in obtaining choice seats. Mayor Baker has placed his "Okay on the commission's suggestion to allow women to view the fistic contests, but has stipulated that this will be permis-' sible only at the coming benefit smoker and that the commission's rule 'barring ' women from attenaing Doxing ooucs will be In force Immediately after the benefit smoker Is over. Muff Bronson, Pacific Coast light weight champion, started training yes terday and will be on hand at the big smoker to risk his title with anyone Bobby Evans lines up for him.

INTEREST KiTV IVIXG AT BOSTON Thirty Thorfeand Spectators Expected at Big Series Game Monday. BOSTON, Sept. 7. A revival of some of the old-time world series enthusiasm was seen In Boston today in the In creased crowds that gathered about the bulletin boards in newspaper row to cheer the news, of the Red Sox victory in cnicago. At the box office of the local Am erican League club at Fenway Park signs of interest were even more marked in the constant line of appli cants for seats for the games in Bos ton, which open Monday. There was little doubt. Secretary Liawrence u-raver, or the Boston Club, said, that the attendance would exceed that at Chicago, and the Indications were than a capacity crowd of 20,000 would turn out. BOSTON EXPECTS BIG CROWD Seat Sale for Opening Game at Fen way Park Encourages. BOSTON, Sept. 7. A capacity crowd for the first game of the world's series at Fenway Park next Monday was pre dicted by Secretary Lawrence Garver, of the Boston League baseball club, as he looked at his stack of morning mail today. It was the last chance to obtain reser vations by mail and with all the 1595 box seats already disposed of, the grandstand seats placed on sale today went in a way to show that interest in the series, if not feverish,fie strong in New Jngiand. v but as the banner crowd of the North west will be on hand for this large array of fistic engagements they want to wade deep Into the fight fans' minds by putting up the best fights of their careers. According to word received from Willie Bernstein at San Francisco, Weldon Wing, featherweight champion, will be on hand at the big smoker and will tackle anyone that is carded to meet him. Joe Gorman has been hank ering for a return bout ever since Wing annexed his title at Vancouver on July 4, and as Gorman is of a patriotic atti tude and willing to assist there is no question that these two featherweights will be opponents In one or the rour- round affairs on the 20th. "Gunboat" Smith, like a lot more of the "ham-and-egg" variety-of fighters. has gone to work at a Brooklyn muni tion plant, and the indications are tnat he may decide to retire from the fistic game for good. Smith has several times threatened to retire from the game, but the sound of the jingling coinB was like soothing syrup to a baby he wanted more. Martin Canole, the veteran light weight who is now sojourning in France with one of the American units, recently tried to stage a "come back" airalnst Johnny . Newton, a former Cleveland pug who is also among those present near the firing line. Newton had youth and weight in his favor and it took all of the ring generalship of Canole to linger through until the final round.
