lurching, slashing movement, quick as
a fash. yet in some way he managed
to get the strength of his body and his
weight behind the drive. One to look
at Del would have thought him a poor
hitter, although he was one Of the best,
and at that there were times when Del
looked like q sucker against q fast
curve ball. He was a great hitter
mainly because of wonderfully accu-
rate eye and his uncanny ability to call
the turn on what the pitcher was going
to deliver.
LajOie Is hitter much after the
style Of Delehanty. He is huge and
powerful, with an ungainly lurch when
he meets the ball, and he has a mar
velous judgment Of speed and a great
eye. He is what Is known &C a wild
pitch hitter. He hits the ball better a
foot outside the plate than ne does
when 1t is over it, but he is likely to
cripple the first baseman IL you pitch
inside to him. for he pulls and slashes
the ball fiercely on a line to right. His
free shoulder muscles permit him to
hit high or low, and he crickets the
ball OF his feet as well as drives the
high ones.
Whenever any one speaks Of Lajoie l
recall Cy Swain, the elongated Wash
ingtOn pitcher. Cy was going to pitch
against Philadelphia and said tender
ly to Joe Campbell:
Joe, I'd like to meet Lajoie."

That afternoon Cooley led of with a
double, Delehsnty followed with a
triple. and Lajoie smashed the ball
over the wall
Did you meet LajOie, Cy?" asked
Campbell after the game.
YES" said Cy, and he had two adj
vance agents"
Arson was a great hitter. His posi-
ton at bat was something to admire.
He stood, feet together, bat clutched
firmly at shoulder arms position, and
almost faced the pitcher. He took one
short step forward with his left foot
and met the ball squarely between the

THE TOBACCO INDUSTRY
OFFERINGS LAST WEEK OFF AND
PRICES ADVANCED.

The receipts OF tobacco at Lynchburg,
Va. last week were 81, 100 pounds, much
lighter than was expected The very light
receipts were caused by the favorable
weather for farm work, and the farmers
being busy preparing for their next crop.
1t also indicates that the crop Is about all
sold The prices. when the condition of
the tobacco Is considered. continue, as for
the past five weeks. to be good.
At South Boston the sales of leaf tobacco
for two weeks were light, running a little
below the 100, 600 pound mark weekly. but
sales for the month foot up 100000 pounds,
those Of the first week in April having been
quite heavy. Prices have kept up well on
all grades but the large amount of scrap
and damaged tobacco has reduced the av-
erage considerably. Total sales to date ag-
gregate 13, 600 900 pounds. and this will be
further sweIled little over 100000 pounds
by September !. the beginning Of the new
tobacco year, SO that South Boston Will
easily hold its place as the second largest
leaf market in Virginia.
At Danville tobacco sales last week were
small not more than 100000 pounds being
offered. However, offerings found ready
sale at good prices. Noticeable advances
over prices that were rejected ten days ago
We're recorded during the week. Some pack

SENSATION IN KANSAS
WOMAN ACCUSES GOVERNOR OF
ATTEMPT TO KISS HER.

The declaration of Mrs. w. e. Stanley,
wife of ex-Gov. Stanley. that Gov. Hoch
put his arm around her and tried to kiss
her in his Office last December has aroused
much gossip here and will probably have
considerable effect on the republican con-
vention which meets Wednesday, says a
dispatch from Wichita.
1t was expected that Gov. Hoch would
be renominated by reclamation by the
convention. but his political fortunes will
p't tably be affected by the scandal.
Mrs. Stanley Is member of the board OF
visitation to charitable Institutions and she
Vent to Gov. Hoch's office in Topeka on
official business last December. It was on
this occasion, according to her story, that
the governor, who is flfty-seyen years of
age and married. threw his arms around
her waist and attempted to kiss her. Mrs.
Stanley. as she alleges. tore herself away
and told the governor what she thought of
his conduct. Then, at the request of her
husband, she sent In her resignation from
the board Of visitation and Gov. Hoch after
holding 1t up several weeks accepted 1t.
No Denial From Hoch.
Gov. Hoch gave out this statement in
regard to the affair last night:
II do not care to discuss this matter.
except to say that the story, which has
been whispered around by scandalmongers
and has finally found extravagant coloring
In print is grossly unkind and unjust to
me. It has been circulated by people who
have no interest in or regard for the feel
ings of either family.
II have committed no Intentional wrong
and hold the person In question In the
highest esteem. Did I not occupy the DO
sition l do this story would never been
peddled or published 1t is part of the
ryena OF politics altogether too common In
Kansas"
Mrs Stanley, who had not said a word
for publication before Saturday night gave
out this statement

ton, but this could not consistently do.
have been asked to deny the report about
Gov. Hoch's action toward me In his office,
but I have told every one that made the
request that / would not tell falsehood
to shield Gov. Hoch, though / would much
rather that the facts had not become pub
lie. realize that such a report places a
woman in an embarrassing position, but
has been such that I am proof against
Islander. l do not see how l could have
done anything else than did. This report
is unfortunately true. I realize that the
story will be published before the state
convention. and have appreciated for
come time that 1t could not be suppressed"
Gov. Hoch has always been regarded as
a truly good man. He Is editor and pro-
prietor of the Marion (Kan-) Record. He 10
q leading member Of the Methodist Church
of Marion county, and has been superin-
tendent of a Sunday school. He has re-
ligious scruples against dancing and would
not permit ball to be given when he was
inaugurated governor.
Former Gov. Stanley is a Methodist class
leader too but he did not object to dancing
and card playing In the executive mansion
when he lived there.

aforethought. Ernest L. Youree was fore
man of the jury. Justice Clark was acting
coroner.
The facts brought out by eye-witnesses
are materially different from the story told
by Turner. It was testified that Ohler did
not have club in his hand; that he did
not strike Turner, but merely pushed him
when he was trying to pry into the fish
bag. Turner slipped into water about three
feet deep. 1t was not until he had scram-
bled out OF the stream and was standing
on the bank that he began to shoot at
Ohler. The first shot missed Oh1er and
whizzed by James Bowers, who was stand
ing a short distance away. The second
shot hkwise missed Ohler, but the third
struck him in the breast and lodged in the
backbone. A fourth shot was fired after
Ohler sank to the ground The testimony
also showed that Turner had been drinking
Saturday afternoon, and that he was some
what under the influence Of liquor at the
time of the shooting.

The Educational System.

In 1867 a law was passed creating three
grades of free public schools:
/. Primary schools supported by the mu-
nicipaIities. with free and compulsory edu-
cation.
., Secondary schools, with manual train
ing and commercial instruction, supported
by the states.
2 Professional and technical schools, sup
ported by the federal government.
This law was rather slow in going into
effect The educational system of Mexico
was more theoretical than practical until

administrative policy. and the growth of
the public schools between 1876 and 1903.
