BASEBALL TALKS

Jim Connor had his spit bali working of
second yesterday and made about the
funniest play during the game that has
been seen this season. Neal came 10 the
bat in the eighth inning and sent sizzler
70 the ex-Grays. He helded the ball well,
but in throwing to first the ball broke
badly and landed over at the players
bench. He got his in the way OF chaffing
when the side was out.
That same play would doubtless have
given Providence run II Cooper had fol-
lowed the ball and sent Neal down to
second. He had ample time 10 get down
before the ball was recovered
Candy LaChance proved his worth to
the team yesterday when he saved Rock
an error on a poor throw. The ex-Boston
man was forced TO take off his hat sew
eral times TO the enthusiasm OF the crowd.

day and struck out that worthy twice.

GABRIEL STONE PRESERVED
Famous Rock Is to Be Inclosed in
Glass and Painted-originally
Property of Rappites.

New Harmony, Ind.-Capt. John
Corbin, of New Harmony, has decided to
preserve the famous Gabriel stone that
has been in his possession for some
years. The stone originally was the
property of the Rappites, who formerly
had colony at that place. 1t was when
the colony of Rappites was threatened
with discussions that George Rapp, the
head of the community one morning
discovered stone near that place that
contained footprints and scroll. Rapp
told his followers that the footprints
were those of an angel, while the scroll
was in a language from Heaven which
he understood
The Rappites accepted Rapp's YER
sion and the threatened dissensions did
not take place. For years the stone has
lain in the yard of Capt. Corbin, and the
weather ha;; almost worn away the foot
prints and the scroll. For several years
the stone was used as doorstep. Capt.
Corbin intends to place the historic
stone on foundation and incase it in
glass and trace the footprints and scroll
in paint, SO that it may be preserved for
years to come. All tourists who visit
New Harmony are DESTROYS of seeing the
Gabriel stone, but few believe that the
footprints are those of an angel. 1t Is
claimed by reliable writer's that Rapp Sc
cured the stone near St. Louis and had
it secretly taken to New Harmony.

CUMMINs SOON TO MAKE PUB
Lie ROAD PROOF.
soLoNs PASS RESOLUTION
Both Branches of Legislature Support
Gilliland Move for Disclosure of
Methods Used in Defeat of
the Primary Bill.

Russell Woodland, Staff Correspondent
Des Moines, Ia, March l9.-With
the Gllliland resolution through both
branches of the legislature, Gov. Cum
Minis promises to make number of
startling disclosures when he presents
his claims regarding the manner in
which the railroads defeated the pri-
mary bill with money. This statement
should be forthcoming soon, and when
1t does the country will be startled, if
reports about the state house are to
be believed. -Cummins men, it is
related, believed that the executive
was making political capital out of
his fight against the avenues of com
merce, and resolution was intro
duced by Gilliland asking him to put
forward his proof Cummins men sup
ported the move, and it passed easily
In both branches.
The house by vote of 70 to passed
the Gilliland resolution calling upon
Gov. Cummins to make good his charges
that railroad influence was used to de-
feat the primary bill. The amendment
providing for committee of investiga-
ton was voted down, and the governor
will now be asked to send in proof Of
the charges he made in his letter accept
ing the third term nomination The
governor charged that the railroads
We're using every power that money or
influence could direct and intimated
that members of the legislature had
been influenced The governor prom
ises now to make sensational disclosures
which he claims to have regarding the
work of the lobbyists in the state, and
his friends in the legislature secured the
passage of the resolution. The resolu-
ton originated in the senate and was
passed by that body.

An unsaxorx Mess.

The more the Ohio senate committee
Investigates Cincinnati affairs the more
unsavory the mess becomes, the great
err and more pungent the stencil in the
nostrils of the people From the evil
dence so far it appears that Boss Cox
had finger in every pie. The latest is
that he endeavored to influence judges
in their decisions in cases large enough
financially to arouse his interest The
discoveries made already by the inves-
tgators thoroughly justify Hon. Will
liam II. Taft, secretary of war, in his
course during the last Ohio campaign.
1t will be remembered that in public
speech at Akron he boldly unloaded
Cox. OF course the thick and thin par
ty organs mouthed good deal about
his so doing, but he never apologized,
and now he is justified.

"Kill Incurable" Bill a Joke.

Representative Buckingham by
unanimous consent of the house with
drew his bill authorizing the killing
OF incurables under certain condi-
lions.
. The introduction in the house of the
so-called Gregory bill" for the re
moval' of incnrables was a joke which
came near miscarrying. Dr. Gregory
and some of the other medical men Of
the legislature had discussed the mat
ter in spirit of pleasantly, and, with
out the knowledge of any except pos
sibly DR.. Gregory, the jokers prepared
the bill and nearly every big news
paper in the country was furnished
with advance copy OF the story. Thu
bill provides that any person over ten
years of age and of sound mind suffer-
ing extraordinary physical pain, and
believing death to be"unavoidable, may
summon reputable physician and ex-
press to him desire for the termina-
ton Of life by artificial means. 1t is
then made the duty of the physician
to call in consultation two other physi.
clans and the coroner of the county
The purpose of the consultation will be
to decide if it be possible to avert the
death of the patient. If not, death shall
result Immediately. Dr. Gregory went
home few days ago to Nevinville,
Adams county, small village IL miles
from the nearest railroad station, and
the only way of communicating with
him was by letter carried. The SEES
sion began with DR.. Gregory still alb
sent. The jokers with the bill in Their
pockets began to be anxious. The bill
must be introduced that day, or ths
stories sent out would be spoiled. Late
in the day after the last train from
the MEANWHILE way had arrived, they set
out to find some one to introduce the
bill. 1t lacked but few minutes of
the time for the close of the session
when Representative Buckingham
came to their relief and the bill was
introduced. So the joke was saved.

the east brought to our ears the
II exultant shouts of the trium-
plant Democrats of Maine be-
cause of their recent victories in the mu-

all those who, fighting bravely, lost! 1t
Is pleasant to remember that in the
early days of her history Maine was
Democratic. So reliably Democratic
was she that when i'll the historical
campaign of 1910 she elected Wing
governor the Wings all over the land
took it as proof positive that they
would elect Wing president two
months later. and they made the land

nicipal elections of Maine this spring
are prophetic of sweeping Demo
cratic victory in the state in the fall.

The Increase from 1850 to 1850 in number
of establishments was 30 per cent: in cap
ital, 1898 per cent; average number of
wage carriers increased $50 per cent
total wages increased 99.5 per cent: value
of products, 74.5 per cent
These are interesting statistics To my
mind, they conclusively rcrute the arsu-
ment that a protective tariff is essential
and necessary to maintain confidence and
keep alive the fires in furnaces and make
the wheels of industry revolvc They
show that from 1850 to 1880. most of the
time under the operation of a tariff en-
acted. as alleged, to "conciliate revision
lists" and condemned by the gentleman
from Ohio MIR. Grosvenor] as Injurious"
capital seeking investment in manufacture
ing industries increased over 1873 per cent,
while In the ten years following, under
the salutary and beneficial" Influences of
the Dingley tariff, the increase in capital
thus invested was only SO per cent. They
show more than this. The value of the
output or products of our manufacturing
concerns increased over "A per cent be-
tween 1880 and 1890 and only SO per cent
between 1890 and 1900.
True, we had a protective tariff from
1880 to 1890 as well as from 1890 to 1900 but
it is also true that the average rate of
duty was much higher during the latter
period. What, then, becomes of the ar
gument that high tariff is necessary to
stimulate and encourage manufacture?
These statistics prove that protected in
dustrtes were more attractive to capital
and thrived better under a lower tariff
than they do under the higher schedules
of the Dingley law.
