His Fearless Originality.
An Able Money Collector.

For this he needed money. His fellow-en-
thusiasts said that money could not be rails
ed for such purpose. He sought out pious
folk to whom his work would appeal and
got subscriptions from them which enabled
the campaign to go on. He delivered lectures
of great brilliancy in all the eastern and
middle states colleges and spent his lecture
fees literally In the work of his campaign.
Yale sent for him and put him in her the
illogical department.
His efforts Were rewarded during his in
cumbency by an increase in the endowment
of the university to more than sl5,0Go,000,
or more than a million dollars for each year
of his striving. He was asked for the secret
of his ability to persuade Mr. Rockefeller to
make such large educational appropra tions
at Chicago. He said. quite simply. that he
was always able to make Mr.. Rockefeller see
things as he saw them himself-that there
was no hypnotism about it. The suggestion
of strange influence dspleased him seri-
ously.

ABBOTT is SIGNED.
VIII Be Player-BFanager of the Hutch
inson Team.

Spencer Arthur Abbott, who for two
years past figured at least part Of the
time in a managerial capacity with the
Topeka White Sox, was this morning
elected captain and manager of the
Hutchinson team in the Western associ-
alton.
He got his release from Springfield at
his own request, where he has been
playing a star game in left field. When
the st. Joe team was transferred to
Hutchinson, Abbott Immediately saw
the new owners and asked them for the
job as captain and manager. Shorty
Hurlburt was at the throttle, from the
bench however, and not on the field.
St Joe had been a losing proposition
and expenses had to be cut down. In
addition to that the team was at sea.
shipwrecked and without a rudder. For
that reason a player manager was de-
sirable. Abbott was today decided upon
as the best man for the place and he at
once took charge. His first act was to
release big Bill Kemmer, who has been
playing the initial bag, and to take that
position himself. Then he laid King on
the bench for q rest, and got Tommy
Cope from Springfield in exchange for
outdelder Sits. Cope will play the third
sack for Abbott. Eddie Moves. the
catcher, viii be stationed in left field,
Pettigrew in center and Shafft tenn
