In another column will be found
an account of the professional pitch
er who played with the University
base ball club this season as a fake
student. As professional players or
salaried men are barred from col
lege clubs, the boye had to get their
man enrolled as a student and pay
him on the d. q. The rules also
require all students to pass an ex-
animation or produce satisfactory
grades from some other accredited
school, so the boys borrowed them
from graduate of the Berkeley
Springs High School. who had never
been in Morgantown, and as no
one there knew Cunningham except
the few students who helped work
the racket, and as no one there knew
Maley, the Ohio professional, it was
easy to palm him off as the real
thing, He was the real thing in the
base ball line, but not in the student
business, as he did not know
thesis or a theorem from a hypote-
muse or parallelogram, but he did
know all about the ratio of strikes
and balls and the geometricai pro-
fession OF inshoots and down carves,
and all went well till they played

aud acted so badly that even their
own people were very much dis.
gusted, and outsiders wondered why
the University officials would allow
such outrageous conduct on the
University grounds and by students
who were supposed to be young
gentlemen, instead of lot of hood
lums. The w. & J. club knew Ma.
ley at once and gave the thing
away on account of the bad treat
ment they received. II soon rea ched
the cars OF Prof. Tom Hodges, the
Director of Athletics, who sent for
Maley alias Cunningham, and asked
him some questions about Berkeley
Springs and prominent people down
there known to Prof. Hodges. AS
the boys had neglected to drill Ma
ley on this part of the play, and as
he didn't know soul in Berkeley
Springs or Morgan county, he was
right up against it, and the bluff was
on and Morgantown could not play
return game with w. & J., but
gave out that examinations were on
for the close of the school year,
and that the professors had posi-
lively refused to let them off, and
therefore the game had to be can
celed.

Perhaps very few people are
aware that Preston county isl par
tIcularly good locality in which to
found story of the oldtime life
which was in vogue before the civil
war.
The county is on the line Of the
first railroad that crossed the Ale
ghanies. 1t is also traversed by the
Northwestern Pike, which in it's day
was the best state constructed high
way IN America. 1t also lies close
with the once Justly famous and i'm
porant National Road. 1t was slave
territory and yet il lay on the bound
AIRY of free state and the people
TO very considerable extent had
sprung from settlers who came from
the northern side of Mason and
Dixon's line. 1t is also jus, within
the border of the Mississippi valley
and partskes Of the general oharac-
teristics of the west, and vet il rs
within comparatively short dis
tanees of the seAc ,sst rhcrc are
differences in the people IN the two
sides Of the Alleghanies which
person does not very wen realize
until he has had opportunity to oh.
serve them both.
And furthermore. while Preston
county is on the border between
North and South and East and
West, II has preserved The old STYLE
OF living to a greater degree than
most parts of the American Union.
And it has done this without actu
ally falling behind in the march OF
American progress as is the case in
the secluded mountain valleys that
lie more to the sou,hward.
Many people now living were
men and women in 1880
but the American of that time was
not much what it is to day.

A little trick OF the Presidents
during his "swing around the circle"
was TO give to the Associated Press
accompanying him typewriter
copies of his address TO be delivered
at any given point to be sent out
broadcast over the country as the
speech he delivered there. That
speech, as sent out was carefully
built and edited. 1t was not the
speech he delivered however, by as
long shot. Mr.. Roosevelt said
many things in his speeches that he
did not want the country at large
20 hear. He was caught at his little
game by the Butte, Montana, Miner.
That paper sent stenographer to
hear Mr.. Roosevelt and took his
speech down verbatim, and it diff
fered materially from the type writ
ten copy sent to that Office early in
the evening. He said many things
of radical nature, and they were
things he would not want the bust
ness interests of the country to get
hold of, for fear that there would
not be the same unanimi,y in endor-
sing him for nominations as there
seems to have been lately. If this
isn't saying things on the stump that
he does not say off OF it, what would
you call it1 II this isn't approaching

THE PITCHER.
Who Won Fame For the University
Ball Team-Is Said TO Have Been
Fake Student Under An other's Name.

Reports come from Morgantown,
says the Charleston Gazette, that
since the faculty of the university
has set about to investigate the play.
ing of Larry Maley on the baseball
team under the name Uf Cunning
ham, an interesting story has come
to light. Maley is an East Liver
pool pitcher of more than passing
ability, and is by trade a mould
maker in one of the potteries in that
city. When the University team
began to organize this spring, friends
informed them of Maley's available
ity, and contract was entered into.
Now the rules of the University
require that all members of the ball
team shall be regular students or
candidates for degree. So when
Maley reported there was ponder
ing as to what department he
should enter. He was kept far
away from the prying of the profess
sors for whole week. In the mean
time it was learned that not having
a diploma from an accredited high
school he would have to undergo an
examination. Maley had paid more
attention to inshoots than to geome-
try and was unable to do so.
Happily, student bethought him
of friend named Cunningham. of
Berkeley Springs, who had gradu-
ated with honors from the local high
school, and so request for Gun
ningham's grades was submitted.
These came and were sufficient to
admit Maley to the agricultural de-
psrtment where he was entered un-
der the name of Cunningham. Then
for week the student body prac-
ticed calling Maley by the name of
Cunningham IL order to accustom
him to his new cognomen.
Maley was duly entered and has
been the mainstay in the pit ching
department of the University. Mean
time, the real Cunningham is tour
ing California and the west, all un-
mindful that another man is max
ing fame for him on the dia
mond.

A ONE MAN MINE.
How Lincoln County Man and His
Wife Do Mininq.

One man mines are few and for be-
tween. They are more often imagin-
alive than real. But near Valley Wells
forty-odd miles west of Manvil there
is such mine It is a horn silver
proposition and Frank Riggs is the
owner.
Riggs has had the property for many
years and during all those years he
has preserved the greatest secrecy.
No living man today knows just what
Riggs has. Parties who have been at
ais pace have seen a shaft and
down this shaft there is a massive
door What lies behind this door is
mystery. But what comes from
within can be judged by the periodical
shipments of it's owner.
The vein, or what is more prob
adle, the stringer of ore yields silver
that only lacks the eagle to pass it as
currancy. 1t is worked only when
when funds are needed. In other
word it is a veritable mint for it's
owner
Some idea Of the richness of the
ore can be had from the fact that
Riggs inyariable makes all his ship
ments by express, paying $4,000 a
ton charges. Before the California
Eastern Ry was built he used to
bring his ore down to Dapcett Cali

In Ordah-T onopah and Several Carso-
mites Are Made Happy
Among the arrivals from Tonopah
last evening was Charles Watson.
With him came the intelligence that
ore had been struck in the Ordah-To-
nopah mine at depth of forty-fVe
feet, at value Of s25 per ton. Several
Carsonites are directly interested in
the OrdaE-Tonopah and the news
caused general good feeling in this
city. Without doubt the promoters
have struck a mine that will soon be
listed among the big producers of the
great camp. Thus far development
work has been conducted on Treasury
stock exclusively. Shares will no doubt
increase considerably on account of
this strike. which is received in this
city with as much ardor as the news
OF any recent strike in Tonopah Abe
COIN, the prosperous merchant and
live citizen, is treasurer Of the Ordah,
Tonopah and Mr.. Watson is the mana.
