FRENCH PRESIDENT
EXC|TES WRATH
Of POPULACE
PARIS INDIGNANT OVER
CLEMENCY TO MURDERER
Series of Brutal Crimes in Gay
Capital Causes CIamor For
Resurrection of Discarded
GuiIIotine.

Paris, oct. 22.-M. Fallieres. the
president, lost a great deal Of popu-
larity by his much talked Of decision
in the case of Soleilland, the brutal
murderer Of Il littie girl. whose sem
tence of death was committed to penal
servitude.
Not that the present chief magis-
trate even enjoyed or ever will enjoy
the measure of popularity that Carnot
OF Felix Faure or Emile Loubet could
boast. but people had begun To think
he was harmless head of the state.
and at bottom a good sort Of a fellow,
who preferred his own ease To being
troubled over much-and this char
acteristie appeals to the French. Then
when a ridiculous little so-called at
tempt on his life was made, he almost
became popular for a brief period.
Since the popular agitation to exc
cute Soleilland broke out, and the
president disappointed it by deciding
hat like all other French murderers
for some years past, he should not be
guillotined. public clamor has beer
very much against him. 1t is eXtraOr-
binary how public opinion took NJ
this question n how universal was
the demand that the execrated Soleil-
land should pay the utmost penalty
for his deed.
Paris has got sick Of its bestial
crimes, and a strong public opinion is
finding expression that 1t is really
ing TO the clemency of the authorities
hat these crimes are so frequently
committed. Nearly every jury I'm the
country has sent a petition to the min
lister Of Justice asking that the death
penalty should be kept on the statute
book. and people are saying it is RI
diculOus that a president Of a dem
ocracy should have power over life
and death like some feudal monarch.
The government and the president
could not, Of course, shut their eyes
To this popular clamor, and IL is
doubtless in a measure to appease II
and turn the peoples thoughts in ar-.
other direction hat the president went
to visit the districts where the disas-
ter from the floods occurred. At the
time Of the wine riots in the same dis
trict last summer the fact that Meth
or the president nor any of the chief
ministers visited the afflicted country
was adversely commented on.

Peculiarly of Minors
in the Major Leagues
Former Left-Hand Hitters Nearly Al
ways Hit to Right Field in
Fast Company.

Every spring, while on our train.
ing trips, | have noticed many pecu.
liarities of the minor league ball play
ers," says Clark Griffith.
Il have noticed that whenever
player who in the minors was pro-
nounced left-hand hitter struck the
major league, he became unable TO
hit anywhere but right field, and this
continued even after he returned to
the small fry Now, there is rea-
son for this, and | think that | have
figured it out.
In the minor leagues, where each
club has about one good pitcher, While
the others are only ordinary, the bats
man gets a toe hold and takes full
swing at the ball meeting it before
it is upon him, with the result that
he pulls it into left field. Now, in
the major leagues the youngster finds
himself up against flrst-class twirlers
day in and day out, with the result
that if he takes his long swing he
probably does not touch the ball at
all, or hits it into right field, because
they have more speed and quicker
shoots on the ball. The result is that
he shortens his hold on the stock, and
in order not to be fooled by any quick
break the ball may make, hits later,
with the result that if he meets the
ball it goes toward right field.
Major league clubs employ scouts
to go through the minor leagues in
search of material 1t is my judg-
ment that not enough time is taken
to look over this material. A fellow
watches a player in two or three
Games and then either brands him
ripe for the majors or unfit for any
thing but the minors. Now, it is my
opinion that many lemon has broken
into fast company, and many a good
player has been kept in the minors
as result of this hurry to size up
players"

Il was astonished that she would al

coffee, but she said Postum was the
most healthful drink in the world for
children as well as for older ones, and
that the condition Of both the children
and adults showed that to be a fact.

cook boiled it four or five minutes and

Much of Credit for Development Of

A shining example Of the benefits Of
outdoor life is Frank Bowerman, base
ball player in the good old summer

time. At present Mr.. Bowerman is
covering himself with mantle of
glory and batting average of fine

or catching wherever the New York

lot of young fans used to think
that Van Haltren invented baseball.
Bowerman has done long stretch in
New York. He went there from Pitts
burg some seven or eight years ago.
The value of playing the game with
all ones might is a good way to be-
come popular in baseball. Nobody
ever accused BOwerman of not work
ing hard enough or of Sinking any OF
his duties. His hands are gnarled
and twisted with wounds he received
while officiating behind the bat, but
he never remained out of the game
a minute longer than was necessary
He does everything as well as he
knows how. He hits the ball with all
his might, and he throws just as
hard Catching a ball is no child
play when he heaves it,
Bowerman has been the close friend
and associate of Christy MatheWson
for years. Up till two years ago ne
caught all of Mathewson's games. 10
him is due much of the credit for de
veloping this wonderful pitcher. II
may not be generally known that Bow
erman is one of the best baseball
scholars in the big leagues. You can
not talk to him on the subject OF base
ball very long without discovering
that he has studied the game a great
deal. He knows what to do with the
ball when he gets it and seldom
makes an error in judgment.
His good nature and that we'll
known grin help to make Bowerman
popular with baseball patrons. They
know he always tries hard.
In the old days Bowerman had the
reputation of being bad actor on
the ball field, but there is no player
who gets into less trouble than he,
He makes his kicks, but knows how
to keep his head, and the umpires
seldom bother him.
OF the field Bowerman is a quiet
person who can converse intelligently
on any subject. He IS very fond OF
home life, and when the Giants are
in the west he always manages to run

Committed for Insanity.

James Smitheram, a resident of
Sutter Creek, was before the superior
court last Wednesday for medical
examination touching his mental con-
ditlon. The medical examiners were
DIR. Fl. +. Endicott and DIR. b. h.
Schacht. Smitberam was before the
court few weeks ago on similar
charge, bat at that time his mental
ALTERATION was not so pronounced,
nor IF such character, as to Justify
his commitment for insanity, so he
was discharged. He returned to his
home in Sutter, his mother living in
that town. His mental aiIment soon
developed to a dangerous form. He
was possessed of the idea that he was
the recipient of orders from the
supreme. Under directions from this
authority he gathered up his belong
ings in the way of trunk, clothing,
etc., and made bonfire of them.
This he contended was the process of
"purification by fire. - Having PASS
ed through this ordeal, he was good a
man as there was in the state. The
orders from above must be obeyed
and were right. He had a notion,
obtained as he claimed, from the
infallible authority. that he was to
form matrimonial alliance with a
lady of the sister town. Also, when
the order was given, he was to COM
mence war on mankind. There was
no question that his mania was of a
dangerous character, and warranted
his confinement in the insane asylum.
lie was committed to Stockton, and
taken to that institution yesterday.
The unfortunate victim was until
the past few months employed at the

physically, about 80 years of age, and
native of England. OF late the

unbalanced mind was evident by his
