What Republican
Prosperity Did for
Chicago Family
[By Assoeiated presa.l

HHaCAGO, Oct. s7.--HuddIed together In
water-s0aled hut of stray and
" sticks In the desolate region on the
banks Of the old Illinois u Michigan
canal q family OF four was discovered last
night suffering from hunger and exposure
The hut Is situated three miles north Of
LenOnt, between the tracks Of the Santa Fe
road and the pile Of broken rock which
skirts the canal
Every member of the famlIy was clothed
In rags. The older Of the two cbildren--a
girl of three years-was practically naked.
She moved restiessIy ON the wet pile Of
straw upon which she tried to sleep.
The mother clasped baby TO her breast.
Hungry as she was and cold the mother
asked only for milk that she might feed
the baby, which cried piteousiy and shiyered
In the damp air.
Someone telephoned to the Chicago bureau
Of charity and reported the family was Iiy-
ing-or starving to be exact--at the point
mentioned. This was at once reported to
Charles Ruck. supervisor of stickner town
ship, in which the place IA located.
The man gave his name as Jacob Brun-
sky. He said he was Polish and that with
his family he had been in this country but
four years. In broken English he told Of
intermittent employment among other
countrymen Mt the steel mills I'm South Obi
cago. Then some weeks ago he was dis
charged.
Look where he would he said he could
find no work. Then somebody said that he
could get a Job Mt the mills at Joliet. They
ali started to walk to the coveted Job. They
passed out of the city and into the fields.
Then his wife fell Ill. Next the nursing
baby. without lis needed nourishment, be-
came Ill. After that BrunsIxy does not know
just what trouble came. There were so
many and he was so hungry that he cozdd
not sny just what happened.
He managed TO pick enough decayed
pieces of food up which had been discarded
by more fortunate workers from the city
dump mile away, TO keep life In the
bodies Of himself and family.

Pony Races for the spreckeIs chaI-

Knot in
Walk
BY G, L. wARING

CORONADO, March 21.-Today was
quite strenuous. In the morning the
finals for the consolation polo tourna-
nent was played between the Los An
geles team and the Santa Barbara
team. The unexpected happened, as 1t
often does, at polo-Santa Barbara
won with score of 5 to 2.
The game might be characterized as
of the selling platter class, good in
spots, but bad in others. c. Wheeler.
the we'll known eastern player, was
on the Barbarian team.
Last night and this morning the ban
uuet TO the players and other well
known people was given by the Coro-
nado Beach company. About fifty
guests took part. The Burlingane
team had won the Spreckels challenge
cup outright and felt tolerably jubilant.
Walter Hobart represented the team,
and after dinner was over took the cup
down stairs and filled 1t up several
times.
a great many persons present were
hoisted, whether they wanted to be or
rot, to an elevated position and forced
to make short speeches. Included in
this list was j. ID. Spreckels. l heard
some joker remark that two full teams
would contest Ill the consolation hnalS
today. This, however, was a libel, as
all the players went to bed early.
The races were pulled off eventually
after tie sun went down. In the big
race of / IA miles for the Spreckels
challenge cup for ponies DIR. Boeseke's
Blue Knot, by Caspar out of Her Lady
ship, made a runaway race of 1t and
won it for the second time. He was
ridden by NJ. j. Cross and carried loo

1:471s, 1 IA miles 2:17.
1t was a walk. Joe Ross. the favorite.
was a poor second and I'm Joe worse

OLD SPORTS
ARE REVIVED
GAMES LONG FORGOTTEN COME
AGAIN TO LIFE
DISCUS THROWING FEATURE OF
GREEK CONTESTS
Favorite Pastimes of Athletes of
Years Gone by Are Recalled
by the Finding of
Statues

In undying marble ancient Greece
has handed down to the world statues
OF her athletes.
Arrested at the climax of their ac-
ton these masterpieces of the art Of
sculpture enable the world of today to
tell what manner of athletes these men
were.
The twentieth century will also have
its athletic souvenir to hand down to
the years to come, but bronze, not
marble is the material in which this
action will be shown.
All that is distinctively modern in
sport, the football player, the baseball
hero the hunter, the golfer, the polo
player, the boxer, figured i'll an exhibit
ton of sporting bronzes recently shown
at the Academy of Design in New York
and so much admired was the exhibit
ton that it had to be repeated later at
the National Art club and the Macbeth
gallery.
The Greek statues are ranked among
the priceless relics of the past and it is
interesting to note that some of them,
found after centuries, resulted in the
revival of games that had been all but
forgotten.
For instance, the sport of discus
throwing, now q great feature of the
Olympic games and an event in almost
every big outdoor athletic meet had
passed into oblivion; many athletes
had never heard of it, in fact, until
some classical scholar, coming across
the ancient statue, was filled with
curiosity to see what the modern ath-
lete could do at this sport In compari-
son with his rival of old.
Hence careful measurements were
made of the discus in the hands Of
the we'll known figure A similar mis-
sile was produced and weight throwers
set to practicing to master this new
old sport
. The proper way to throw was quick
1y learned, for many statues of discus
hurlers survive from ancient Greece,
when next to runner and wrestler the
man who could send the bat missile
furthest got the most coveted crown OF
laurel.
Among the first Americans to- win
special renoWn in this event was
Johnny Garrels, Michigan's famous all
around athlete, who has starred as
football player, runner, hurdler ana
weight thrower.
Next came Martin Sheridan, the
wonderful New York policeman, who is

year than the Tigers, with Rossman
Kockill and Crawford able to play the
base.
1t is being whispered about that
President Navin of Detroit has drawn
a lemon in Pitcher George Suggs. the
star twirler of the Southern league.
Suggs is grand tenor singer, but he
is said to be shy on what in polite
circles Is called courage.
John Anderson, who Is spending the
winter at his home in Worcester, Mass,
is relieved to learn that Frank Isbell
has decided to stick to Wichita. Kas.,
next summer, and will not be with the
White Stockings 1t was Izzy who
drove Anderson out of the American
league last summer, his gentle tongue
finishing the work started by Joe Can
tillon.
Some of the ball players who are al
ways talking about retiring from the
game to enter business" might do we'll
to see how Jack Harper, the Cub pitch
er secured from Cincinnati for Lobert,
came out in the boot and shoe busi-
ness. Jack was one of those fellows
who actually retired. Now he wants
to return to the game TO make back
the coin he lost in business. But Man.
ager Chance has so many pitchers he
doesn't care to take Harper on to the
staff. Some trade will be framed up
so that the finger may escape the shoe
business in Oil City, Pa.

years and has pitched only one full
game, and that victory over CleVe-
land. Last year he failed to start a
single contest, but finished few after
they had been hopelessly lost.
Big Joe Harris drew a years salary
from Boston in 1907 for losing seven
games. Not once during the entire
season did he annex a victory. Bart
ley of Philadelphia got his about as
easy. He lost four games for Connie
Mack and had the derrick used on him
in six others.
Bill Bernhard had a mighty easy year
of it for Cleveland last season, but Bill
worked hard in one way. He was there
every day hitting 'em out at the rate
of a mile a minute to the infielders.
The fact that Clevelands infield car
ries off the fielding honors each year is
said to be largely due to the practice
they get from Bernhard.
Joe Cantillon will try to change the
luck of the Nationals during the COM
ing season by changing the colors of
the uniforms that the players will wear
while on the road. For the past two
years the Nationals have worn plain
black suits, but the uniforms looked so
dismal when compared with the white
suits of the opposing clubs that Can
tillon has decided to brighten things
up this season by having navy blue
with white trimmings for suit and cap.
Hughey Jennings believes he has dis
covered a cracking good first baseman
in Kockill, secured from the Albany
team of the New York State league.
He believes that no team in the league
will be stronger at the initial sack next
