History of the Disgrace
fuI Episode.

The case of Shortstop Frank Shu-
gart, of the Chicago baseball team,
who has been expelled from the Amer
ican Baseball league by President Ban
johnson, brings to crisis the recent
outbreak of rowdyism in baseball.
There are many baseball enthus-
lasts who criticise most severely Pres
ident JOhnson's radical course in dis
barring Shugart forever from the
American league. But before such
view is taken of the case the facts
must be considered, says the Chicago
Inter Ocean.
Shugart's offense occurred in the
game of August p at Washington.
The Senators were at bat and two
men were out. Clark and Foster were
on first and second bases. Coughlin
came TO bat, and had three balls and
two strikes called on him. The next
ball appeared to be a strike, and if
so declared would have ended the in
ming, but Umpire Haskell said ball"
and Coughlin took first. Jack KatOll,
pitching for Chicago, protested. Cling
man came to bat and hit for three
bases, sending in three runs. The
next ball pitched went through Catch
er Sugden's hands and hit Umpire
Haskell on the shoulder. He gave
Clingman base, scoring another run.
1t was an extremely aggTavating
case, a test of the Chicago's players
good temper. Katoll, enraged. threw
the ball at the umpire and hit him on
the leg. Shugart came up and struck
Haskell a blow on the mouth, cutting
his lip. Both Chicago players were ar
rested by the police.
1t may be true that Umpire Haskell

and wires lead the current from 1t to
the motor. The especial virtue of
this arrangement is that the motor
is portable, and can be attached TO
almost any boat having a square
stern. 1t is not necessary to build
expressly for the use of electricity.
The apparatus can be attached to
the boat in a few minutes, and re-
moved in an equally quick fashion.
The batteries are placed under the
seats of the boat.
The motor not only Propels the
boat, but steers it as well, the boat

WORK OF THE WORLD
All People, Rich and Poor, Should
Do Their Share of It.
California Judge Declares II Is the
Duty Of "A Wife tO Bear some of
the Financial Responsible
titles of the Home.

Judge Waldo NJ. York, of Los An
geles, Cal, is not the most popular
man in southern California just now.
He has brought down wrath upon his
head by declaring from the bench
that women should have some of the
responsibility OF the support of the
family, and that the husbands failure
30 support the wife was not neces-
Sarily valid grounds for divorce. This
IS the judges ruling:
"a wife might easily earn enough
60 support both herself and husband.
/ believe that women should bear
some OF the responsibility of the sup
port of the family upon their own
shoulders. We ought all of us to
work and do something to keep the
world going. The mere fact that this
woman and her daughter have had
70 help support the family is not in
itself sufficient grounds for divorce"
The decision, which is holding first
place with the weather and other
topics of conversation, was in the di-
vOrce suit of Mrs. Flora Z. Stephens
against Henry G. Stephens, which
was decided in favor of the plaintiff.
Mrs. Stephens brought action for
freedom from her husband on the
ground of cruelty and nonsupport,
and told a pitiful story.
The wife left the husband, but the
case is one which under the law con-
stitutes a desertion by him, as Ste
phens told his wife she would have
to go. They were living at the time
IN East Los Angeles, and she took her
two children, who were living at
home, and left the man who had
failed to support her.
Before the Stephens family moved
60 Los Angeles they resided at Po.
The Washington bee., 1901-09-21

mona, where the husbands neglect
of and cruelty toward his family
aroused such Indignation that the
citizens threatened to tar and feather
him if he did not leave town. The
man has no trade, and, according to
the wOman's story, no ambition and
no inclination to work. Since leav-
ing him Mrs stephens has been COM
PEELED 10 take in washing in order to
support the family.
Although poor, the plucky little
woman is ambitious for her children,
and is putting one son through a
college at Healdsburg. The boy, un-
like his father, is energetic and a
hard worker, and he is paying part
of his tuition by working before and
after school hours. The oldest son,
Amos, has a situation in Riverside
county but does little toward the
support of the family. The oldest
daughter, Mrs. Myrtle Woolacott, is
happily married and does much to
assist her mother. The youngest is
a child of eight.
After these facts had been proved
TO the court, Mrs. Stephens attor-
ney, Charles Lantz, submitted the
case. and Judge York rendered his
decision. Touching upon the matter
Of nonsupport, the judge said:
"a wife might easily earn enough
to support both herself and husband
"The fact that the husband has not
contributed to the support of the
family without proof of his ability
10 do so, or proof of his neglect to
do SO by reason of his idleness, prof
Igacy or dissipation. is insufficient to
Justify a divorce. Besides, the law
does not contemplate that a poor
man. relying solely upon his labor
for support, should be the only Ia
bOrer in the family. In this case
the wife and her daughter, by honest
and honorable employment, were
able to earn a living and had the
courage to do so. Their work was nc
harder than that ordinarily done by
laboTing people, and for aught that
appears the husband may not have
been able to find employment, and, Il
able TO find employment, may not
have been physically able to labor
All people, rich or poor, should dc
their part of the work, and not be
drones, whose existence is useless.
But it does appear in this case
that the husband, prior to the sepa
,ration, was extremely cruel 20 HI:
wife in many ways, and that without
cause he inflicted upon her grievou!
mental suffering and physical inju
ries. and upon that ground she is en-
titled to q divorce.
81 do not look upon this matter o.
women helping to support the famil.
as such an extraordinary state Of af
fairs as to warrant anybody apply
ing for legal separation upon tha
ground"

Presidsnt McKinIey,s NAL.

From the date on which the pTesi-
dent begins his annual message until
the close of each session of congress,
from 1000 TO !, 1,5OO letters are received
daily, says Leslie's Weekly. Even in
summer the daily average is rarely less
than 300. The president sees only
the letters of his friends, and those of
high officials in regard TO personal
matters. Only those of obvious i'm
portance reach even Mr.. COrtelyou,
who makes a memorandum or brief Of
the contents of any letter that may be
likely TO require the presidents atten-
ton. The letters are all assorted by
Mr.. Cortelyou's corps of clerks, and
fully so per cent. are forwarded to
the various executive bureaus and di-
visions of which each department is
composed, and all that are worthy of
attention are answered as promptly
as possible.

the body of the plant. This passage
has a number of hairy bits about it,
which are very fuzzy, and at the end
of each bit there is a sticky substance.
When the plant opens its mouth it
is evident that the trap is then set, for
upon any insect entering it the lips
close upon il at once, forcing it TO the
gummy substance of the throat. This
substance has properties similar to
those contained in the gastric juices
of the human stomach, which help to
decOmpOse and digest the food. When
so digested the food resolves itself
into liquid which is carried all over
the plant to nourish and revive it.
The most marvellous thing about this
newly-discovered species, says the
New York World, is that it can digest
such food as small morsels of beef, fish
and egg gelatine, some of which,
dropped into the open leaf, were re-
tanned and apparently digested. At
the same time anything Of starchy or
fatty substance the leaf or plant is
not able to retain. It does not, there
fore, close its lips upon it, and if al
lowed to remain in the mouth the
plant Will decay.

To a woman belongs the honor of
having first discovered flowers that
emit light. This woman was the
daughter of Linnaeus, the celebrated
Swedish naturalist. One evening,
when the aged man and his daughter
were walking in their gardens. she
called his attention 10 some nastur-
tiums glowing with a faint phosphor-
escent light. They removed these to
a perfectly dark room and there
viewed the ghostly illuminated flowers
for hours, trying 10 solve the mystery.

mated by the rules of the game to de-
eide such points, and method of pro-

The love of fair play is the strong
est characteristic of the American pub
lie in sporting matters. For each game
of skill or chance or strength which
enjoys popularity there is a well-de-
fined set of rules. We believe that the
public desires in any game that the
rules should be followed by all con-
testants-in other words, that there
should be fair play. Shugart undOubt-
edly broke the baseball rules most
fagrantly. Furthermore, he lost his
temper completely, and a man who
cannot keep his temper has no place in
any game.
Aside from general considerations,
