AEROPLANES BOMBARD PARIS
PARIS, Oct. 8.—German aeroplanes continue to fly
over Paris and drop bombs, l'he advantage of this course
is hard to understand unless it is that the enemy is aiming
at arsenals or places where provisions are stored. As it
is the people who are injured as a rule are non-combat
ants. Three bombs were dropped from aeroplanes today
and one of the bombs wounded three citizens who were
going quietly about their business.
GERMAN GENERAL KILLED
BERLIN, Oct. 8.—Major General Augustus Zeaman,
commander of the second Bavarian artillery, has been
killed in battle. The news given out by the government
officially here has caused absolute confidence to reign in
the ability of the German armies to hold their own at
least, against all enemies.
PARIS ALSO CONFIDENT
PARIS, Oct, S.—The feeling here is entirely a confident
one. The Germans are fighting with a frenzy which is
altogether disadvantageous to themselves and their los
ses are so frightful that no one seems to believe they can
hold out very long. All reports from the front indicate
that the efforts of the enemy to break through the lines
of the allies are hopeless and that Paris is safe.
CAN ADIAN TROOPS IN ENGLAND
LONDON, Oct. 8.—The Canadian troops have arriv
ed and have received a very warm reception from the
people. Their furture movements are kept strictly secret
but the general opinion is that they will he sent to France.
They are practically all men who have had some military
training, and are believed to he fit to meet regular troops.
RUSSIANS MAKE ADVANCES
PETROGRAD, Oct. 8.—The official statement of the
government say that the Russians have now occupied the
whole of the province of Bukowina in the extreme east of
the Austrian-Hungarian empire, seven-eights of Galicia
anti a fifth of Hungary. Among the places taken in Hun
gary are the important towns of Unghvar, Munkacs and!
Sziget.
REVENUE TAX BILL READY
WASHINGTON, Oct. 8.—The final consideration of the

CROWDS ALREADY WAIL
FOR ERE OPENING GAME
PHILADELPHIA, Oct. 8.—Crowds
arc already waiting outside Shibe
park in the drizzling rain for tomor
row’s opening championship game.
Speculators are selling reserved seats
at outrageous prices but manage to
get the price so great is the interest
and desire to get in.
NEW YORK, Oct. 8.—When the
Philadelphia Athletics and the Bos
ton Braves go into action in the
twenty-third series for the world’s
championship baseball honors the
diamond campaign will be fought out
by teams which represent the old
and new in the national sport. Al
though the average age of the leading
players of the two combinations is not
widely separated the Athletic’s mach
ine is so famous and its success so
striking that it appears old by com
parison with the squad that George
Stalling whipped in shape in midsum
mer and thus won a pennant for Bos
ton. Taking twenty odd players of the
two teams as a basis it will be found
that the average age of the Athletics
is 26Va years and the Braves 24 \
years
While less than two years in aver
age age separates the team the ex
tremes are more marked in the Ath
letics than the Braves. Plank, Bender,
Coombs, Olding, Lapp and Thomas,
are all past thirty but the majority
of those who will figure in the daily
line-up arc several years younger un
der this age. The three youngest
players in the squad are the pitcher,
Bush, Pennock and Wyckoff. The
American League representatives
have the advantage in years of base
ball experience for the Philadelphia
Club players average fully a year
more in time spent upon the profes
sional than the Boston players. The
Braves average is approximately five
years with Johnny Evers heading the
list with twelve years of play. In
point of professional service Plank
leads the Athletics with thirteen years
of baseball play and experience at
his back. Bender is but one year be
hind and several others just fall short
of double figures in their diamond
' career. As a result the Athletics aver
age is six years notwithstanding the
fact that a number of comparative
| youngsters are marshalled under the
Philadelphia flag.
The team which will act as the
standard bearers of the national Lea
i gue, is an interesting combination of
the youth and the age of the diamond.
In some cases extremes have been
I blended by Manager Stallings in art
ful manner to make of the Braves a
winning team. This fact is illustrat
ed in two notable cases. Principal
figures in the scheme of attack and
• defense which enabled the Braves to
; win to the front of the stirring race
in the National League, Johnny Evers,
veteran of nearly 2,000 games, a fig
ure prominent in the recent history of
the sport, has worked in effective co
laboration about second base with
“Rabbit” Maranville, barely more
than a boy, playing his second season
with a major league club. The same
combination of old and young is found
in the records of the men of the out
field, and of the pitching staff. These
i figures show the oldest member of
