known yeggman lies dead at the city

Mr. Walker and Mr.. Stone is that in
the course of their nightly rounds the
Two policemen met the through

rived here at 2:15, as is their Gus
tom. Upon reaching the depot Mr..
Stone walked down one side of the

stranger. 81 am going back to the

"Well, where is your lantern 2"

Thereupon Mr.. Stone advanced in
reach of the man and laid his hand
upon his shoulder. about to arrest
him, such being instructions rela-
tive to loafers at the depot As soon

gether they fell to the ground.
They were so lying when Police
man Walker crawled under from the
other side of the train, the stranger
struggling to loose himself. He was
almost free from the weakening hold
of Stone and was reloading his pis-
tol when Walker came upon him.
"Don't Shoot cried the stanger,

of course was bluff to gain time,
for Stone had never drawn his pis-
tol. 81 will surrender said he.
"Give me your pistol them" said
Walker. Pretending to hand the pis-
tol to the policeman, the stranger
fired at Walker, who quickly drew
and sot the man TO his death, four or
five shots taking effect. In the sack
which he held in his hand was com

glycerine, dynamite, keys, wrenches,
etc. He had $1,000 about him.

THE MODERN DIANA

It is an English woman, who is also known for her work in this country and as the daughter of a defender of the once famous Tichborn claim ant, who makes novel charge against her own sex Miss Arabea Kenealy, licentiate of the Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons, in Dublin, declares that the modern ''typical'' wo- man is losing the faculty of love. She argues that athletic training, which is part of the form ative processes of the young woman of today, develops muscles at the expense of emotions. That statement was expressed by the Greeks when in their anthology, they made Diana, the goddess of the chase, a man-hater. The muscu- lar maiden of present civilization strives for physical development at the expense of her nat ural aptitudes and inherited graces, which are not consistent with the effort at self-support and the clamor for the right to vote
 Here is an indictment that will not find ready credence. It is to be noted that the accuser is herself unmarried, and that she is engaged in what she calls "the senseless, strenuous mud dle' that women in her opinion, are making of life. In the discussion of sociological questions, definitions are of first importance What is meant by the ''typical'' woman9 The answer of most men would be that one of her character istcs IS femininty, which includes the divine re- sponse to the call of love- Her normal destiny IS the home that she makes and the family of which she IS the radiant center The loveless woman may be unlovely, and assuredIy is not q type" of the ministering angel of the race.

fact that Abstein, the Providence first
baseman, is slated for the job for
this year. Gill had a perfect fielding
average, but batted only 224.
Thus in four seasons the Pirates
have experimental with more first
basemen than any of the American
league clubs has in six years, seven

being sent to first on account Of in

Washington started off with Bill

Anderson, Blankenship and Freeman

in 1908, while Mullin played 26 games
there in 1904. Shrek and Powers
have also subbed there a little, but
Davis has been the only regular.
Five first basemen have been found
necessary for Boston. La Chance
served there in 1903 and 1904, while
Grimshaw and Buck Freeman were
the regulars during the next two
years. Unglaub and Grimshaw turned
the trick in 1907, while Stahl and ing
