BALL PLAYERS
LOVED STAHL
HAD FEW BESIDE DIAMGND
FRIENDS
Attacked by Martin Bergen Shortly
Before the Unfortunate Catcher
Committed Suicide-Mod-
est Performer

Special to The Herald.
BOSTON, April 25.-While there was
never a more popular player in Boston
than the late "Chick" Stahl, it may
come as a surprise to many to learn
that outside of his baseball associates
he had but few personal friends.
To these friends he stuck like glue,
confiding to them his every little
thought and act. To all others he was
rather reserved, although at all times
a good fellow and a gentleman.
Stahl was of a peculiar temperament,
different from most ball players, and
only showing his true self to his near
est friends.
To Charles LAWS, manager of the
Continental hotel, was 1t given to know
Stahl as but few Boston fans did.
II was one of the first friends Stahl
made when he came to Boston," said
LAWS, "and we were just as thick
friends the first year as when we met
last. Soon after 1 met him he had
some trouble with Martin Bergen. 1t
all grew out of Stahl's sunny DISPOSE
tion and his habitual smile.
They were in the dressing room on
this occasion and Bergen, looking at
Chick, thought he was laughing at
him. Bergen went over and struck
him. Stahl attempted to strike back,
but l stayed his hand and explained
that Bergen was not in his right mind
and was not to be blamed for his act.
Stahl understood, but he brooded over
the AFFAIR for month and never spoke
to Bergen again.
Trouble with Bergen
when Bergen ended his career in
so tragic a way. stahl came to me and
said; Charley, 1 am the happiest fell
low in the world now that l did not
lave any further trouble with Bergen
IN the dressings room that day
He sympathized with Bergen in his
affiiction, and though he never spoke
to him since their scrap, he liked him

very well. There was no fellow pltleu
Bergen more than Chick, and when
Bergen was criticised on all sides for
his actions, Stahi defended him, say
ing that he was to blame for his do
ings. When Bergens name was men
toned after his death Stahl's only COM
ment would be, "Poor, unfortunate fell
low
"Stahl never made many real per-
sonal friends, but he kept every one
he ever had He was reserved, but
once you knew him he was a grand
fellow
HE was, 1 think, the most consist
emily good centerfielder in the Amer
lean league since 1t started. He was
two-handed catcher, and would ex-
tend himself needlessly in order to get
his two hands on the ball.
HE never attempted star plays,
never sought the applause of the stands,
though, as those who know can tell,
he pulled off some of the most mar
velous plays ever seen at the American
league grounds.
~"He was the best friend Jimmy Col
Inns ever had, and was the truest friend
any man could have.
Pal OF Collins
"He had a brothers love for Collins.
When Collins was out of the game last
year and was missing, Stahl worried
about him, and was the first to find
him. Collins was at Nantasket, and as
= lived there 1 knew of it and sue
ceeded in bringing them together.
"It was tho most affectionate meet
ing 1 ever saw For hours they talked
that night by themselves in carriage
near the pier. 1 do no think that 1t
will ever pass out of Collins memory.
1.-The time Collins was out of the
game was the first time Stahl worried
in nine years. Stahl did not want the
position of captain, and he told me he
would not take it under any circum-
stances. Later he explained that he
was only doing it for his chum.
HE delighted In wheedling Buck
Freeman into a game of pitch, and he
could get Buck crazy, until Freeman
would tell him he would never learn
to play cards and would have to get
out of the game.
HE was a religious fellow and went
to church regularly every Sunday with
Collins.
"In the dressing room after a game,
when the others We're Indignantly dis
cussing some decision of the umpire's,
Stahl would only chuckle and wink at
those gathered around.
HE had the interest of his team at
hearti and even If he played star
game-got two or three hits and made
excellent plays-on coming out Of the
dressing rooms he would look sheepish
and say, We played rotten tod9y'
HE kept as far away from liquor as
he could 1t was the the last thing in
his mind. have been with. him to
banquets, dinners and other events,
and he would not touch the hard stuff.
An occasional bottle OF ale or glass
of beer was his limit. l never saw him
with the sign OF liquor on him.
HE could see fun in anything. If
we were playing cards he would laugh
at some fellow who made a fuss over
losing a dollar or two, and would seem
just as tickled when he himself was
the victim.
Were we playing pitch he would
start the fun by getting Dineen or
Young going by bidding four when he
would not have point In his hand.
And when they called him down he
would laugh until all the others had
to join in.
"His home life was OF the best, His
father, mother and brother We're ale

succeeding.
'tHe was chap who would go down
deep in his pockets in good cause.
his hand was out to everybody 1t
