A Good Story on Western Thent-

They tell good story on Billy Cor
man on the New York Kialte. Billy,
whose middle name is Edward, mct n
fascinating young souhrette on 9road-
way, and made rather an impression,
says the Cincinnati Enquirer. He told
her his name was Will Edwards, drop
ping the German. and gave his address
as Taylor's Exchange. The young lady
promised to write, and. what is more,
did so, but when the letter reached tie
exchange they. thinking the letter Ee-
longed to William Edwards. a well,
known manager, it WAS forwarded to
him at INElw & ErlangrrS Exchange.
Possibly when both read this article
the mystery will be cleared up, and
Billy will again regain his girl.
Speaking of Billy German, it is uot
generally known that Billy's name is
Goeman, and that the change was
made when he worked in the Bruins
wick hotel, New York city, many years
ago as a bell boy. On his first salary
day he struck an Irish bookke"pel
named Mccarthy, who insisted that
BillyS name was German. and that il
would remain that way on the books
He also gave him Il severe lecture On
anybody who had Irish blood in him
that went back on the Ould Dart. AS
Billy could only draw his salary under
the name of German, German it was,
and is to this day.
