Harper, of the Cardinals, Has Won
Eleven Out of Fifteen Games.

St Louis, June 27.="Jack'' Harper,
the Cardinals sensational young right
handler, leads all the league pitchers,
just as Emmett Heidrick does the stick
ers and Jesse Burkett the run-getters.
Harper has made fifteen trips 10 the
firing line He has won eleven of his
games, lost three and tied one. That
was against Cincinnati May A. when the
stands at League park were destroyed
by fire The score was A, and the
Reds had been BANKED in their time up
in the tenth inning ''Rhody' Wallace
opened for st. Louis with a single and
with a run and victory in sight the
fire broke loose, stopping further play.
Harper. barring the two eastern trips,
has pitched better ball than any of the
slabmen.
On the Cardinals first invasion OF the
land of the enemy he started off at
Boston and met with his first defeat of
the campaign, 4 to 3. He then trimmed
Brooklyn, IL to 5, and Philadelphia, 10
to 6. Powell finishing out for him in
both games Thanks to Red John s.
great work the two games were annex
ed by the Cardinals, and as Harper
started in both ne gets credit for the
victories. Powell is performing even
better than Harper just now. He went
through the east the last time like
Kansas cyclone, winning three games
for himself besides finishing out in two
for Harper. This trip he has triumphed
over both Philadelphia and New York
The brOad-shouldered Chicagoan has yet
to lose a game In any of the four east
ern cities, a record never before equaled
by a tWirler.

To Place $500 in Designated
Spot Under Death Penalty.
Then So, 900 Was Asked For by
the Anonymous Writer.
No Clue to the Parties Who Did
the Evil Deed.

Winfield, June "a sad story comes
up from Vernon township which in
wolves the death by fire of Mrs. w. G.
Carson.
Three weeks ago Mr.. Carson received
an anonymous letter saying he should
place $500 at the foot of a certain tele-
phone pole in a given time under the
penalty of death. He paid no heed
to this demand and a few days later
another letter came demanding that he
should place $1,000 in the same place
under penalty of death and being burn
ed out He paid no attention to this
second demand and as a supposed re-
suit his house was set on fire Saturday
night and burned to the ground. his
wife receiving fatal injuries.
Mrs. Carson as near as could be
learned was in the house at the time
and after discovering it was on IRE,
rushed out. but on gaining the outside
thought Of Mr.. Carson's papers and
valued violin and returned to get them
BY this time the house was a mass of
flames and she was caught in them,
but managed to drag herself outside,
where she was afterwards found
about ten feet from the burning build
ing. her head, limbs, feet and arms
horribly burned and most of her cloth
ing gone. She was taken to the house
of Mr.. Dunn near by, where she died
Sunday night. Mr.. Carson was at the
time on his way to Oxford but was
overtaken by a neighbor and brought
back, when it is said he expressed deep
regret at the loss of his papers and
violin and said if his wife died he would
go back to Scotland, his native land.
Mr.. Carson is reported to be a very
wealthy man, but does not show any
evidence of it, either in dress or his
way of living He and his wife are an
aged couple and are old residents Of
Vernon township. He is the man who
ofttim es is seen in Winfield with a mule
team, leading it down the street and
selling his garden truck
Neither Mr.. Carson or the neighbor
ing people have the least clue as to
who sent the letters or whether the
same party who sent them did the
