HoRArIUs HINKLEY

Horatius Hlnkley never took away wild
ow's mite
Not that his heart was ever touched by
any Widows plight
He never took advantage of an orphan in
his life,
Nor ever tried to win the love of any
others vile:
He always kept to lawful ways as closely
as he could,
Because he coveted the praise Of those
who called him good.
Horatius Hlnkley never stole-not that to
steal was base,
But simply for the reason that he wished
to shun disgrace
He never cheated other men nor spread
untruths abroad.
Because he feared he might be caught,
and not through fear of God;
He always kept within the laws, and
proudly held his head;
A model man indeed he was, as everybody
said.
Horatius Hinkley never stabbed-not that
within his breast
The hate which urges mon to kill had
never made nest
He was a pattern and a saint to all who
knew how free
His record was from any taint; but, bro
ther candidly,
I'd hate to have to take his chance when
death has closed his eyes
And he goes up to be equipped with
wings-or otherwise.

WADDELL STRUCK OUT
296 MEN IN 35 GAMES
WITH THIS RECORD HE is ONLY
THIRD BEST
White Of Chicago and Griffith Of New
York Are First and Second In
Effectiveness, With Rube a Close
Third

American league statistics, just
given out, furnish some remarkable
figures and records concerning the
feats of the twirling staffs Of the sew
eral clubs in the league.
.Rube Waddell, the erratic wonder
IN the baseball world, holds the season
records on strike-outs, tanning 2S6
men in thirty-five games, or an aver
age of SIT strike-outs to the game
Rube was forced to retire from the
game in the closing days Of the pen
nant race because Of an acute attack
of rheumatism, which threatens tO
make his retirement permanent.
With Rube in the game, there would
have been q greater element of doubt
surrounding the worlds championship
series. He was almost heartbroken
because of the enforced absence from
the series and his disappointment was
equally shared by the Philadelphia
fans.
Rube also landed third among the
pitchers of the league, White of Chi
cago and Griffith of New York leading
him.
White was the most effective Amer
lean league pitcher of the season, op-
posing batters securing less runs per
game off him than was averaged Oft
other twirlers.
Mullen OF Detroit was the most
liberal of all the leagues pitchers, al
lowing 140 opposing batters to walk
to first Griffith Of New York was
the stingiest of all the twirlers. only
allowing sixteen free passes during
the entire season.
Patten of Washington allowed more
runners to get over the plate, 151 of
his opponents scoring while he was on
DUTY Griffith was again the tight
wad" in this regard. only thirty-two
Of his enemies tallying while he was
on duty.
Henley Of the Athletics, Dineen of
Boston and Smith of Chicago were the
only American league no-hit pitchers.
Coakley of the Athletics, Winter of
Boston, Smith of Chicago, Donovan of
Detroit and Falkenburk of Washing
ton each pitched onehit games, Smith
scoring two such seais.

use to prove that many of the prosecu-
tion's witnesses committed perjury at
the investigation by the court-martial
are missing.
He accused the officers of the court
martial and the board of inquiry with
having taken them in order to deprive
him of the use of the documents at his
defense. He accused a member Of the
court-martial - Capt. Gillespie - and
others of having copied many of the
personal letters while the documents
were in their possession.
He also accused the government Of
flcers of neglecting to return several
pieces of personal property which he
highly priced. One of these was piece
of the flag which floated over Fort
Sumpter when the fort was first fired
upon in 1861, and another was letter

Murphy was 80 helpless before the
blows of the former champion that

The defeated man was game to the
end. McGovern showed his old-time
form, fighting hard and fast from the
sound of the gong.
McGovern opened the round with
swinging hard on Murphy's face and
neck. He followed this with a hard
blow to the body and then to the ear

1t up and got the worst Of 1t.
He was Knocked down six times and
each time he came to his feet he would
stagger. McGovern stood over him and
struck him blow after blow. Finally
Murphy became defenseless and the
referee stepped in and ended the un-
even contest. Murphy was carried to

condition.

hundreds of persons were turned away.
Announcement was made that McGov-

Clever Carlo

my dog always posts my letters"
said the second-best story teller at tho
club. II just hand him the letter and
say, Here, Rover!' and he trots off to
the post at once. Well, yesterday
when 1 gave him one he dropped 1t on
the floor. So took it up, and, think
ing there must be something wrong,
weighed it, and found that it was in
sufficiently stamped"
"That reminds me of a dog I once
had named Carlo" remarked the best
story teller. Carlo always posted my
letters, and one day when 1 gave him
one to post, like your Rover, he let 1t
fall on the floor. 1 thought that per-
haps it was insuff1ciently stamped, but
on weighing 1t 1 found 1t was all right.
So gave it to Carlo again, but again
he dropped it on the floor. Convinced
now that there must be something
wrong, l looked at the address and
found that I had inadvertently ad-
dressed the letter to Mr.. John Smith,
Esq"
No more dog stories were told at the
club that night.-Sketch.

CARTER CHARGES
A CONSPIRACY
SAYS C0URT-MARTlAL WAS
UNFAIR
Former Army officer, Convicted Of
EmbezzIing $4,000, 900 Of GOVERN
nent Funds, Makes Plea
for New Trial
By Associated Press.

By Associated Press.
CHICAGO, Oct. 18.-Charges Of con-
spiracy among army officers, made by
Oberlin NJ. Carter. who was convicted
of embezzling $3,OOOOOO from the gov
ernment. enlivened the proceedings be-
fore Special Examiner Wyman today.
In reply to questions by Assistant
United States Attorney General Erwin,
Carter asserted that the finding Of the
court-martial which declared Carter
guilty was the result of a conspiracy
among the officers constituting the
court-martial, including Gen. Otis, its
presiding officer.
81 was condemned and sentenced to
prison on secret testimony at hearing
where neither myself nor my attorney
was allowed to be present." said Car
ter. "That is why 1 was insistent on
obtaining trial in a court Of justice,
where I could confront my accusers and
summon witnesses.
IF 1 could have met my father-in-
law, r. F. Wescott, in open court I
know he would have told the truth. AS
1t was he was a feeble old man and
the government representatives worried
him into signing the statement which
is now used as his testimony"
Charges Conspiracy
"Why should the government give
you another trial after a military court
martial of three months investigation
had found you guilty and you were
serving the sentence in prison?" asked
Mr.. Erwin.
Because I never had a fair trial."
shouted Capt. Carter.
THE investigation by the court-mar-
tial was an infamous farce. Gen. Otis,
the presiding officer of the court-mar-
tial was found one night in the office
of the prosecuting attorney to have me
convicted.
"You charge that Gen. Otis and other
members of the court-martial entered
into a conspiracy to send you to
PRISON."
IT do, and know what I am talking
about" replied the witness. 1.-THE late
from the top of his head to his toes, but
I was advised that Attorney General
Griggs was corrupt"
"How do you know Attorney General
Griggs was corrupt?"
Because a high official Of the Penn
sylvania railroad told me-" replied the
witness. "He said his road ran through
New Jersey and he had reason to know
of Griggs' character. He advised me to
have nothing to do with him."
