SUIT AGAINST CLARK.
WANTS COURT


NEW YORK, May Miss Mary
McNellis promises a renewal of her
suit against Senator w. A. Clark, the
multimillionaire copper king, to re-
cover $150.0O0 claimed for alleged
breach of promise. The case was
tried secretly year ago before James
l.. Bishop of New York as referee
and the decision was against Miss
McNellis.
During the trial Senator Clark ad-
mitted that he was acquainted with
the plaintiff, but he denied that he
had promised to marry her. He is "A
widower, aged 60, with five children.
and Miss McNellis is aged SO. She
designs now to have a public trial be-
fore a jury. During the hearing be
fore the referee a number of notes
alleged by the plaintiff to have been
written to her by Clark were ex-
hibited. The plaintiff claims that
Senator Clark once gave her a check
for $25 to buy a birthday present,
and that he frequently saw her at
her rooms and entertained her at his.

A PITCHER
Under Any Other Name Would

How Maley Became Cunning ham
Mouldmaker Studies Agriculture
and Appears in the Box at the Uni.
yersity-An interesting Story.

The East Liverpool Crisis contains
an interesting story; it is very inter
esting if true. Nobody here who
has been asked about it will talk for
publication. fhe recital in the paper
in question is as follows.
Since the faculty OF the University
of West Virginia has set about TO
investigate the playing of Larry
Maley on the base ball team under
the name of Cunningham, an inter
esting story has come 10 light.
Maley is ON East Liverpool pitcher
OF more than passing ability, and is
by trade a monldmaker in one of
the local poeteries. When the Uni
versity team began to organize this
spring, riends informed them of
Maley's availability, and contract
was entered into. says the Crisis.
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
bordering as to what department he
should enter. He was kept far away
from the prying of the professors for
whole week In the meantime it
was learned that not having a di-
ploma from an accredited high
school, be would have to undergo an
examination. Maley had paid more
attention to inshoots than to ge-
ometry and was unable to dc so.
Happily, student bethought him
of friend named Cunningham, Of
Berkeley Springs, who had graduated
with honors from the local high
school, and SO a request tor Gun
ningham's grades was submitted.
These came and were sufficient to
admit Maley to the agricultural de-
partment, where he was entered
under the name OF Cunningham.
Then for week the student body
practiced calling Maley by the name
of Cunningham in order to accustom
him to his new cognomen.
Maley was duly eItered and has
been the mainstay in the pitching
department of tue University. Mean
while, the real Cunningham is tour
ing California and the west, all I'M
mindful that another man is making
tame for him on the diamond.
