PITTSBURG, CHICAGO AND
NEW YORK NECK AND
NECK FOR PENNANT.
PITTSBURG IN SLIGHT LEAD
By Taking Last Game Today From
Chicago Pittsburg Will Have the
Prize Famous Tie Game to be
Decided Monday.
So close will be the finish in the
race for the national league pennant
that any one of the three leading
clubs may win. The defeat of New
York yesterday was costly, for even
by winning the three remaining
games New York has to play with
Boston, Pittsburg can win the pen
nant by taking the last game of the
season today. On the other hand if
Chicago .defeats Pittsburg and New
York wins the retraining games, New
York can do no better than tie with
Chicago. Thus it is seen that ' the
game between Pittsburg and Chicago
today will be the crucial test of the
entire series, disposing entirely of
the chances of one or the other of
the two clubs. If Pittsburg loses
the game that team will be behind
Chicago in the final team standing.
In figuring the possible outcome it
must be remembered there is still the
are specifically enumerated in , this
law there, is another law which pro
hibits, the sale of, liquor on Sunday
and . a restraining order not to at
tempt to interfere with the opera
tion of the other law. Saloons there
fore will remain closed. While the
direct effect of the retaining order is
a matter of importance only to those
directly affected indirectly it is im
portant as in deciding the question
whether to make the order perma
nent. The court will doubtless ex
press its views as to the constitu
tionality of the law.

Frederick Larson lies at St. Mary's

tween life and death as the result of
an attempt to take his own life in

Larson has but very lately returned
from a three years' absence in
Alaska, where he served all that time
as one of the keepers of the Scotch
Cap lighthouse, coming down on the
tender Armeria. He had saved prac

his intimate friends report that he
has in the neighborhood of $1400 laid
by to show for his provident life in
the far north. He came here by way
of Seattle, Tacoma" and Portland,
and for the past week has been
around the city with his friends, in a
convivial way, but not noticeably in
toxicated at any time. His best and
chosen friends here are Mr. and Mrs.
Albert Johnson, who reside at No.
591 Grand avenue, at whose home he
has been domiciled since his return,
and who speak in the highest terms
of the stricken man, as do all who
know him here. He is about 42
years of age, quiet, dignified, neat in
his dress and friendly of manner,
yet very self-contained and.not at all
communicative, even with those wlv
knew him best.

believes the crusade will have only
