In the second report of the Voters
League, published in the daily papers
during this week, records of the vari-
GUS candidates for county commits
sioners are dealt with-some of them
in anything but a complimentary
manner. Some things said are libel
ous-if they are not true-and the
candidate who allows them to pass
unnoticed will find himself in a dan
gerous position SO far as public con-
ssndence goes.

Real Hero of the Base Ball Fielc.

Michael Whalen, third baseman Of
| the Yonkers IN. W baseball team, Who
became the idol of his home town
when, after having his leg broken in
| two places, he made a catch that put
out his man and saved the day !c- his
| club, is a moderst hero.
Lying on cot in st. John's hospital,
| Yonkers, Whalen recently !o'l re-
porter of the New York American just
how he made the play in the game at
New Rochelle, N. Y, which caused
5000 persons to join in an ovation
him.
For many months there had been
much feeling between the Yonker=
team and the rough riders and tlleir
supporters. The recent game was to
decide the championship of Westchcs-
ter county.
From time to time, while describing
the play he made, Whalen said:
'say, don't put it too strong. 1 only
did my duty, and the other boys would
have done just the same.
''The Yonkers team met the New
Rochelle team on the latter's ground.
determined to win or die. But we were
evenly matched. 1t was the ninth in
ming. The score was 9 to s in favor
Of Yonkers. A great crowd of 5000
watched the game, and our men braced
themselves for the struggle.
II knew that one mistake would
make us lose the coveted champion
ship the game decided. At last the
New Rochelle players by good batting
got runner on second base. 1t was
critical time. A hit meant run, and
new life seemed to be injected into the
New Rochelle men. They felt that
victory was in their grasp. But you
know there's many slip, as the say
ing goes.
1.-The man on second edged off as far
as he dared toward third. He danced
back and forth tantalizingly. Ny eyes
were upon him frequently, but the bat
/, ter was the real danger.
''The pitcher settled back on his
right leg, poised his arm in the air for
minute and sent the ball whirling
over the plate. With dart the runner
started for third base. At the sam.
instant sounded the swat of the bat
hitting the ball. saw the runner
coming toward me at terrific rate,
and my eyes searched for the ball.
Suddenly the heavy spiked shoes
Of the runner struck me and 1 felt
the two bones snap. I, fell, and the
runner went over me. Half stunned
thought Of the ball, and raising up on
my hands, saw it coming from the
second baseman. He had thrown it
low.
"Could 1 catch it? 1t seemed half
an hour from the time the ball left the
second baseman's hands until It reach
ed mine. When 1 knew that had It
fast feeling Of exultation crept over
me. Now I would get him. The JOY
of that moment will never forget.
did not feel any pain then.
ION my hands and knees 1 crept
after the runner before he recovered
from his tumble and caught him when
his hand was within six inches of the
plate.
'Then heard cheer, and it grad
ually became a mufled roar. That is
about all remember until the nurse
was bending over me in the hosp.t,i "

TWO JAPS STABBED
WHICH ONE DID IT2

At about nine o'clock last night a
came into the Police Station bleeding
from a cut about three inches long on
the left breast. He stated that an
other japanese by the name of KagI-
wara had entered his room on Mauna-
kea street, between Beretania and
Hotel, and had stabbed him with a
knife. He said that he was but slight
w acquainted with his assailant and
that there was no provocation for the
attack whatever.
The wounded man was taken IN the
natrol wagon to the Queens Hospital
and his wounds were dressed. Mean
while Captain Kanai proceeded to the
room mentioned in an endeavor to To-
cate the man who did the stabbing. AS
he entered the dark room the man rush
ed out toward him with his hands over
his face, which it seems is a sign Of
not sure for a moment whether he was
going to be stabbed also or not
When the man had been taken into
custody Il was found that there was a
long cash on one finger and along the
side of the palm. He said that he had
been attacked by F'ujii and after being
cut on the hand had grasped the
weapon and turned it on his assailant,
inficting Fuijfs wound in self-defense.
"a her of the men is dangerously hurt.
F-1Jii is in the hospital and Kagiwara
in the pen and this morning they VIII
have an opportunity to fix the guilt on
each other.

besmearing the election booths with
their posters will hear from the govern
ment concerning this matter, as they
are not privileged to make use OF them
