Evers Knew Whereof He Spoke.


When the Chicago National club was
making the long jump from New York
back to the stockyards city by the lake
this last time Tinker. the shortstop, came
into the parlor ear, where the various
members of the team were olling at their
ease, and suggested that a Little game of
seyen-up be started in the smoking
Chance, Johnny Evers and K ing all
slgnifed their Willingness to take a hand
SO the four ball players were soon In the
smoking car engaged in the seductive
game.
1t was everybody for himself and things
the peerless little ,shortstop Evers began
to lose.
His bad luck kept up for quite a while,
when ali at once the cards began To come
to him in the way he wanted them.
Finally King and Tinker, having got
the worst of it, dropped out. leaving the
play to Chance and Evers. Then things
began TO happen. as it was getting late
before going TO bed, SO the game grew
fast and furious and the stakes became
mountain high.
1t was at last agreed between the two
players that, win or lose, they would
play one deciding g&me, which would be
enough for that night.

During all this time the other members
of the club who had come into the car
got to talking about valuable gems for
stones and jewels ard just as Husk
Chance had turned w the queen of
diamonds for the trump card and had
thrown king of that color down for the
high card Steinfeldt said to Evers:
oh, say, Johnny. can you tell me
which is the. most valuable diamond at
the present time?"
Il sure can" shouted the clever little
fellow with a wild we'll nf
ace and with that Johnny smacked the

Just as the umpire called two balls on
Larry. what did Mil do but attempt to
steal third, and he was an easy out AS
there were already two men down Larry
had to throw away his bat and walk out
to his position at second base
AS he came up to Mil he paused a mo-

Il suppose, young man. that you are a
firm believer in the old saying that ig-

"How's that?" queried Mil. with puz-

extra hitch to his trousers you appear

EMMETTS ACQUITTED
 OF STEALING 4 COW

FLAGSTAFF. Ariz., Apri 1S.-James and William Emmett have been ac- quilted of the charge of larceny of a COW after the case had been most bitterly fought for two years. The jury returned it's verdict after being out about two hours. Three other indict- ments against the Emmetts were dis missed.
 The complaining witness was B. F. Sanders, a wealthy stockman of Salt Lake City, whom the Emmetts allege is trying to railroad them to the peni- tentiary as the result of a cattle war between Sanders and the defendants During the trial Sanders testified that he owns 5000 cattle in Coconino coun- ty, and controls thousands of acres of land. He owns, in fact, all the land in one section of the county except that controlled by the Emmetts. On the holdings of the latter are num- Der of valuable water rights and it is alleged by the defense that the suit was brought as a persecution to drive the Emmetts off the land; thus leaving Sanders master of the whole district Sanders, on the other hand, alleges that the defendants stole bodily a val uable COW belonging to him and other wise violated the statutes made and provided. The alleged theft was said to have been committed in 1904
 The trial was one of the most sensa- tional ever held in this section. E. M. Doe, of Flagstaff, and Reese M. Ling, of Prescott, defended the Elm nets, and Prosecuting Attorney Ash urst and ex-Judge Baker, of Phoenix, conducted the case for the territory. Witnesses for the prosecution testified that they had seen one of the Emmets kill the COW. The defense, however, proved an alibi, and even impeached the testimony of the witnesses for the prosecution, alleging that they were paid to perjure themselves. Able argu- ments were made on both sides. The courtroom was crowded all during the trial. and interest was intense

COCkRELL DECLINES ID ASSIST HIS SUN

WASHINGTON, D. C.. April 1S.-- Former Senator CockTeTl of Missouri now a member of the interstate com merce commission, is convinced that the Ephriam Cockrell. referred to in numerous cables from London, is his son.
 In justice to Mrs. Ephriam Cockrell, to himself and to the public. Nff. Cock, Tell last night authorized the publica. ton of this statement from him:
 q have done my very best in my sons behalf, but he has declined to follow my advice. Already he has proven the source of great expense to me and l am now unable to render him further assistance.
 Those who deal with him must do so independently of his relationship to me. No one can more deeply or sorrowfully regret the course he is alleged to be pursuing than I.
 He has treated his wife shamefully. She has not been with him in Europe, but has been either with me, with my family or with her fathers family Ephriam left this country last June and since then I have had no com munication with him, nor have ] known his address.
 The news contained in the London dispatches is indeed humiliating to me"
