The Baseball Umpire Has to Be Philosopher

the cracks the players make at them during

one of the most accomplished and respected
umpires in the business.

State Senator in western New York last
fall and came close to mailing the billet.
He is man Of strong andauaint personality.
His Ball tuh" and long drawn out
-Stri-i-i-ike- and "foul-uh" are the delight
of the circuit.
AN umpire must have every player
with whom he comes in contact sized up

differently. I don't mean to say that there
should be any Partially, but allowances

tempers OF different men.
Some ball players can no more help
giving slack to an umpire than they can

These natural born kickers have got

ball players who have been in the game

KINEo. Me, June 24.--Dr. and Mrs. F. H.
Jenoks OF Woonsocket, r. l., are the first
visitors to run down by canoe bull moose
within sight and sound of the hotel, but they
accomplished the unusual feat last week
and number witnessed the chase
The moose was first sighted by Mrs.
Jencks while on the way by canoe to the
fishing grounds. On rounding the northerly
point Of Kineo Cove she noticed an object In
the water, near the shore, which she at first
took to be log Closer examination
showed that it was moving rapidly out into
the lake. She called the attention of the
guide to the object.
SITS moose: reel in your lines" he
whispered. For a while the guide held the
canoe in the shadows near the shore, allow
ing the moose to put sufficient water be-
tween him and the shore so that retreat
would be impossible. and then the racs
began, With a good start a moose can
lead the best of canoeists, but in this case
the guide had matters his own way, for
head whichever way he might the moose
would be losing ground
In the course OF due time the canoe was
alongside, and the occupants We're stroking

animal with their iy rods as he surged
on, snoring and grunting furiously After
a time the moose was driven ashore half
a mile down the lake, and later seen on the

prominence in this affair he was obliged tc
fee to New York.
Just previous to the outbreak OF the
civil war Lloyd went to New Rochelle
and was appointed to an Office in the New
York Custom House under Buchanan. 1t
was while holding this office that he ran
for supervisor Of New Rochelle on the
platform indorsing the Confederaoy.
The feeling against him became so in
tense that on Oct. IS, 1851, band Of citi-
zens visited his home at night and told him
that he would have to hoist the Stars and
Stripes or they would hang him and burn
the house. Lloyd refuse to comply with
the demand. Despite the assistance Of his
wife, who attempted to defend the house
with small ships cannon, the mob broke
in and dragged him out Lloyd fought
with his captors and managed to escape to
New York.
This experience 30 enraged him that be
decided to join the Confederate army as a
spy fastening to Washington, he was
introduced to John G. Breckenridge by a
relative and was told where he could join
the Confederates.
Capt. Lloyd walked seven days and
seven nights until he reached Green River,
in kentucky. When within twent y-five
miles Of Folks camp he met party Of
cavarymen and saluted them. The cavalry
men at once suspected him OF being a
Yankee spy and demanded his pass.
Lloyd had forgotten to obtain pass
from Breckenridge and despite his protests
he was arrested and taken into the rebel
camp. There he was taken before Roger

Hanson, commander of the Second Kentucky
Cavalry, who, after hearing his story, asked
him TO prove his loyalty by swearing him
self into the Confederate army.
This the prisoner declined to do, on the
ground that Kentucky was not Confederate
State because she had not seeded. The
cavalry leader was 80 angered by Lloyd's
obstinacy that he threw him into the guard
house. One Of his companions in The
guard house was w. p. Breckenridge,
then private, who had been court-mar-
tailed for sleeping while on sentry duty.
For several days before the Coufederates
received a telegram from their Secretary
Of War saying that Lloyd was all right
he was kept busy helping to cook and play
ing the fife at guard mount. He then went
to Richmond. On the way he stopped q
week at Nashville, where he was the guest
Of the widow Of President James K. Polk,
whom Lloyd describes as one Of the most
accomplished women he ever met. In the
siege OF Richmond Lloyd did duty for various
Generals as a spy. often personating a
pedler and going within the Union lines.

visited the monument regularly during all
Grated by religious fanatics, and on holi-
day occasions he has decorated It with
flowers.
Capt Lloyd is an extremist on the sub
ject OF personal liberty and. like Paine,
has rsked his life in the defense Of his
convictions In the days Of the civil war
he was 80 radical on the question Of States
rights that he actually ran for Office in
New Rochelle on a ticket indorsing the
Confederate Constitution, and 80 angered
the Ntizens that mob attempted to hang
him, and failing in this, drove him out OF
town.
Horace Greeley, writing OF the incident
at the tine, denounced Lloyd and said that
he was -hungerng for some Of JEFF Davis's
rations." The surmise proved to be cor
rect, for Lloyd, after fleeing from New
Rochelle joined the Confederates and be-
came a spy Until this day he is accused
by some of the veterans of New Rochelle
Of having been one Of the keepers Of Libby
prison, but he has always vigorously denied
this charge.
Capt. Lloyd's own account OF his career
is interesting. He says that he was born
| In Providence and attended school only
| two weeks when he was turned out for
kissing girl in the classroom. His only
subsequent education was obtained by
reading the dictionary.

Capt. George W, Lloyd. the aged custo
dian of the monument Of Thomas Paine
in North street, New Rochelle, is circulat-
ing a petition asking hat the city of New
Rochelle assume the task that he has been
performing gratuitously for many years.
Capt. Lloyd has reached his eight y-sixth
year, and now that the infrmties Of age
are beginning to tell on his once rugged
const tuition he feels himself compelled to
ret ire.
Yet he is unwilling to give up his self
imposed duty until he is assured that 1t
shall be attended to by some other respon-
sible party. His desire is that the munich
pality of New Rochelle shall accept the
monument Of the author of The Age Of
Reason" as a public charge and care for
it in perpetuity.
great change has taken place in public
opinion since Paine was buried in New
Rochelle at the beginning Of The last CEN
fury. Then such feeling prevailed against
his teachings that the Episcopalians of he
city would not allow grave to be dug for
him in the churchyard. and his followers
buried his body near his old farm in North
street. The funeral procession as 1t passed
along the highway was derided by church
people, and the church bells were rung in
jubilat ion over his death.
Now all of this spirit has melted away
1t is probable that the Board of Aldermen
will accept the monument and see that it
is properly preserved as one Of the land
marks of the city.
Recently the city aut liberties, in improv-
ing North street and converting it into a
boulevard, moved the monument to better
location and enclosed it with an iron fence
adding greatly to the appearance Of the
plot. The monument marks he supposed

mains were laid in 1909 and from which
they were stolen by direct ion of Goblet,
