Aan|on Says Brooklyn
Club Is Not In TROUBLE
Denies Being Sold In Default
: OF $4,000 Judgment.
Griffith's HighIanders Are Enjoying
Three Old Cat. T"

New York March Ned HallOn is
out with a denial of the story that in
case the brooklyn club is sold out in
fyult OF the $4,000 Judgment obtained
against the club by Hanlon. F. A. Abel
and the Won der Horst estate, the Ma
tional League franchise will be taken
to Baltimore.
Hanlon sRys the minority stockhold-
er.s merely want to see the books OF
the club. fTanlon, who is in Baltimore,
said Yesterday:
The suits against the Brooklyn club
have been brought with no such pur-
pose of transferring the National
League franchise from Brooklyn to
Baltimore. Mr. Abel and myself. unit
ing with the interests Of the late Won
der Horst. are simply pleading for our
rights. Of which we believe we have
beer defrauded for several years by
Mr.. Ehbetts and those with him in con-
troll Of the Brooklyn club.
I'VE are now minority stockholders
in the Brooklyn club. it is true. but we
represent 40 per cent. and yet we have
fer two wears or mere been Kept IN
complete ignorance of the business al
fairs Of the club. When we were all in
harmony. daily statements of the bus
mess Of the club were issued to all four
principals.
"Since Mr.. Ebbetts got control. Meth
or Mr.. Abel. the Won der Horst estate
nor | have ever had figure to show
what the club is doing. We have had no
trial balances. though we have asked
rcpeatedly for information, and w
bo,-o never hnen repreSented in the of
fees Of the club. In fact, if any an
nual meetings of stockholders have
have been held, as is required by law
we have been kept in ignorance OF
them, with one exception"

English Comforts

A woman who has recently returned
from several years residence in Eng
land says there are certain English
comforts OF home life which she mis-
ses in resuming her life in America.
One Of these is the CHEEKY open coal
crate which is feature OF all English
living rooms ones back may be cold
in an English house. but ones spirits
are cheered by the cozy open fire which
is a feature one rarely sees in Ameri-
can town houses.
The family afternoon tea is another
incident Of home life in the old coun-
try which she brought back with her
and established in her own home. II
is not a function. but just a simple 5
o'clock tea table by the fireside, whence
only thin bread and butter simple
cake and tea are regularly enjoyed by
the family. il alone. or shared with any
visitor who drops in. This practice
she considers one of the happiest feat
ures of English home life and thinks
it a great pity that we don't take time
for that sort of thing ourselves.
Cut flowers in the living rooms and
hot water bottles in the bed rooms are
two more English comforts she misses
in her going about in this country
Here, she says. we order our flowers
only for company. In her London
fiat it was an undreamed Of thing not
to have the rooms always frightened
by bowls and vases of greens and
flowers for the family's own pleasure.
As for the hot water bottle this is a
luxury always to be found at the foot
OF the English guest room bed. where
with to warm the chilly sheets and
keep the feet cosy through the night

The Inconstant Man

1T is a truisln to say that all women
should marry" says a clever woman
writer, "for nearly every woman is
originally born with the makings OF 4
good wife and mother; but the man
who does not feel that he can remain
true to one woman, otherwise do his
duty to his neighbor, which is the one
true religion in the world. should never
marry. To quenchl the JOY in one soul
that is born with its inalienable right
to happiness is to commit a crime, and
one committed daily, open-eyed, by

THE GENTLE SEX
SteppineStonesto Success

Scarcely anything seems impossible
TO the man who can Will strongly
enough and long enough.
A home without books. periodicals
and newspapers is like house without
windows.
The chances are that what you call
hard luck or fate" that is against
you is some weakness, some vicious
habit which is counteracting all your
efforts and keeping you down.
The strength of will is the test Of a
young mans possibilities.
Directed toward the enjoyment OF the
seness. the strong viii may be demon
and the intellect merely its debased
slave; but directed toward good, the
strong win is king. and the intellect
is then the minister OF mans highest
well-being.
There is a divinity in the meanest
man, a philanthropist in the stingiest
miser, a hero in the biggest coward.
which an emergency great enough will
call out.
Every man stamps his own value
fupon the coin of his character in his
own mint, and he cannot expect to pass
for more. and should not be disap-
pointed If people do not take II for
more than it's face value.
The greatest blessing that ever comes
to a human being is the determ ma
ton to realize that for which the heart
/ longs.
It is a finer thing to be nobly remem-
bered than to be nobly born.
Cheerfulness is a sign OF sanity. II
| is the person who has no laughter, no
fun in his nature. the person who be-
comes morose and melancholy who is
