A GOOD STORY
ON DAD CLARK
Once Famous Pitcher Always
Getting Stung--BeIieved
Everything

Dad Clark. once a pitcher Of the
New York club. and who was perhaps
the most unconscious humorist the
game has ever known. could be made
TO believe the taliest story ever told,
provided the teller kept a serious face,
and this sublime faith Of Clarl's caus-
ed him to be "stung" on many occas-
ions.
one OF the most notable cases where
In Dad got "stung" happened one
morning when that genial soul and
prince OF gtee-sollows, Parke Wilson,
the New YORK catcher az that time,
came hurriedly into the clubhouse just
when the fellows were preparing TO
don their baseball clothes for morning
practice. and excitedly exclaimed;
SAY men, what do you think2 AS
I came 10 the park this morning /
walked by big department store and
saw a largo crowd gathered about the
largest show window Getting curious
myself / went up TO see what the trou-
bic was. and what do you Imagine
caused the street to be blockaded2
Why, nothing more than this. They
have the entire windows filled with
canned goods, and on each can is a
picture OF Dad Clarkl' shouted ParSe.
WHAT" shrieked Dad as he began
pulling on his street clothes. "AIe pic
ter on cans in a store window Now.
you fatheads, see whose de popular guy
in dis punk outhti I'm de little boy
whose fllin' up dis park every day. an
I'm goin ter strike for a tousand dollar
raise in me salary right away. Me pic
ter on cans in a store window If de
folks at home could only see me nowl"
All during this spiel Dad was hust-
ling on his duds, ana the moment he
got the last garment fastened he tore
out OF {he clubhouse and raced for dear
life toward the big store. He arrived
there al right. and rushing up to the
window. he saw the cans, just as Parke
Wilson said they could be found, and
on the front OF each can was the pic
ture of a great. fat. red lobster.

SUFFERED A
BREAKDOWN
j. HENRY FIscHER's MENTAL
STATE SUCH AS TO PREVENT
APPEARANCE IN COURT.

PARKERsBURG, Sept. 4.-When
criminal court opened yesterday morn
ing, Attorney W. NJ. straus, appear.
ing for j. Henry Fisher who stands
indicted for larceny, appeared and In
formed the court that 1t was impos-
sible for his client to appear in per.
son, owing to his mental state. He
asked for continuance, generally If
the case against him.
MI Straus explained that the state
of his mind was such as to preclude
the possibility of his being able to
defend himself or to properly advise
counsel in his case. He said that Mi.
Fischer had reached a condition
where it was impossible for him to
converse tntellIgently with any one
and that his mind was wandering and
feeble.
Mr.. straus added that counsel for
Mr.. Fischer felt constrained to ask
the court for another writ which
would absolve the defendant from all
further responsibility or liability to
answer to the court because Of his
mental state.
He said that he would, however,
merely make a motion that the case
be continued until the next term.
Mr. Laird said in reply that the
State, under the circumstances, and
taking into consideration the short
duration of the present term, would
not oppose the defendants motion,
and the case was continued gen
orally
A new bond was given in the penal
ty Of s2,5OO, with c. H. shattuck as
surety.

who was the nearest man to the scene,
ran with ali his might in an effort to
