says the Pittsburg sun Flaherty is now

a letter from him received here recently
indicates that Uncle Sans national sport
has made q great hit in the Orient. The
game is not only played all around the
world now. but IN many places it IS
PLAYED remarkably well The experience
in foreign countries Is not different from
our own-pIenty OF good pitching and
fielding. but a scarcity OF hard hitters.
Flaherty also sent some japanese
newspapers. The Japan Advertiser.

BEACON FIRES WILL
BLAZE ALONG HUDSON

NEW YORK, Oct. 9.-More than two
score great beacon fires will blaze tonight
along the entire valley of the Hudson riv-
er from New York bay to Albany, and
bring to close the two weeks of festivi-
ties which have made the Hudson Fulton
celebration one of the most successful
events in recent times.
Each beacon light is built on a stone
foundation on some historic mountain or
other promontory along the Hudson. is 80
feet in circumference and 30 feet in
height, and constructed of dried peat.
which will burn briskly for at least six
hours and diffuse a great light. Each Of
these beacons has cost $1,000.
Besides those constructed by the cele-
bration commission, other beacons will be
burned on MANY of the great private es-
tates overlooking the river. All of the
beacons will be set blazing Simultaneous
ly by an electric current sent from this
city. AS President Taft is deep in the
Yosemite valley and far from telegraph
communication, he has authorized Gen.
Stewart L. Woodford to press the button
which will start the fires.
Besides these fires, a number of cities
along the Hudson will have brilliant pyro-
technical displays and there will be a
parade in Brooklyn and other cities.

YEARS OLD,
HE FACED PRISON CELL

Leaning upon a hickory staff, fros-
ty-haired old man who was born just
81 years ago arose from the prison
er's bench in the United States court
room yesterday morning and faced
Judge Newman in placid expectancy.
His manner bore the freedom or
the mountaineer and that simple, quiet
dignity which marks a race bred close
to the soil and the naked sky. His
SHOES were of goatskin. His blue
shirt hung open at the collar. The
long, knotted staff reached past his
STOPPING yet sturdy shoulders. HIS
bristly beard seemed to have been
blown by the gales of many a winter.
He looked for all the world like an
aged pilgrim such as you may see
woven upon dim old tapestries in Eng
lands most ancient byways.
What is the charger" asked the
Judge. glancing up from his docket.
The frosty-haired defendant remain
ed silent. The district attorney ex-
planned that ne had been found guilty
of making moonshine liquor. His name
was Adolph Hayes, known better as
''Dolph" among the craggy hills Of
Gilmer county, where he has dwelt
since the last century was in its youth.
In his little red cottage sitting half
askew behind it's mountain laurel
about 10 miles out from Ellijay, he has
reared II stalwart sons and daughters.
"Guilty"-tnat had been the jury S
verdict and now the moment for pay
ing the laws debt had arrived. Judge
Newman observed him closely and then
gazed refectively through the court
room window to line of blue, misty
hills stretching away in the distance.
To sleep in Jail upon a straw pallet
when YOU are 81 years old, to breath q
the musty air of a prison cell when
you have been used to the ozone of
spruce pines, to tell your wiz good-by
and be marched away to iron bars
when her head as well as yours is
wnite-this is no pleasant prospect,
but this was the future which old
''DoIph" faced as he STOOD leaning upon
his staff.
If you turn back into the dustiest
files Of the revenue office, it is said,
you will find the name Of Adolph
Hayes. Long decades ago his name
was familiar to the raiders. This was
not his first conviction.
AS young man he brewed moon
shine liquor as matter of principle.
AS an old man he brewed it as cner-
ished custom. He never brewed il
with sordid financial designs. ''Dolph"
could never understand why he hadn't
the right to do what he pleased with
his corn when his own hands had
sowed it each springtine and his own
shoulders had borne it to the barn each
autumn. And, then, it was always such
honest liquor with a tang of joy in every
jugfull and merry bubbles FOSTERING on
it's brim.
But he was guilty under the law.
II don't want to send this man to JAIL .
