more formidable than pebbles.
It is hard to understand why the
early fathers. did not enlarge the list
of seven deadly sins to eight, in order
to include nagging. Perhaps because
the example Of Samson's fall through
much nagging was then so much
fresher in peoples minds as to render
separate warning on the subject
less necessary than now. It is q sin
that brings its own punishment Note

For the Christian riles
And the Aryan smiles,
And It weareth the Christian down.
Far more doth Il wear down both

Former Athletic Third Baseman
Manages Outlaw Club.

Some class A and B league managers
make an awful fuss when they lose a
player or two and make excuses that they
teams have been wrecked in case they
fail to start out winning In the springtime.
What would these managers do If they
were in the fix that Lave Cross, the for
mer Athletic captain. finds himself in this
springf
Lave managed the Shamokin Club In the
Atlantic League last year. When he joined
the team II was a hopeless tailencer.
When he quit In the fall he had the cham
pions OF the league It was an outlaw
league, however, and every man he had
was grabbed away from him by some
club higher up, Center Fielder Strunk
Dyke to the Phillies.
So, a. nucleus of a team for the COM
ing season Cross has only himself OF the
championship winners. But. nevertheless.
he expects to place another winner On the
field this season. He has his team about
complete. 1t includes two Cleveland boys
Duvie, who pitched for the County Engi-
neers. and Welt. the former Chenille
High southpaw, who has since pitched for
the McWatters-Dolans of the City League
and the Williamsport team Of the Tri-
State League.
1T sure is tough to get a championship
without getting a cent for them" said
Cross the other day in Cleveland, but
thar is the penalty of being in an outlaw
league. I was hoping that they would
get under organized base ball this year.
but 1t does not look as If they would.
Shamokin is q great little town, and
eventually shall go there to live"

the four-cornered contest for the scholas-
tic championship Of the District An invi-
tation to enter this race was sent to each
school In Washington. and teams from

schools and Georgetown Prep will run.
There Is hot athletic rivalry among all
these schools, particularly between the
Props and Tech. and Tech and Business.
and 1t would not be surprising II. while
the runners on these three teams are
watching one another. the Western four
would slip by with a victory.
The Business High quartet will be
chosen from ]. E. Hill. James Fegan.
Frank Davis. Robert Rawlings and A.
Welckcr. These are the boys who have
run the Tech team such close races in the
impromptu dual games in the Business
gymnasium. Georgetown Prep will make
choice from w. Brennan, e. Dahill, H.
Props can see nothing but victory with
this combination. which has held the
Georgetown varsity team close several
times Techs four will be picked from
Thrall, Tew. Fowle. Falconer, Farmer
and FREEZER. any four of whom are able
to do some good racing. This is the
bunch Of dark horses from Western: T.
Guy and Clifton Aires This Is the hrst
time a District scholastic championship
relay has been run. either indoors or
outdoors .and the work of the high
schools against the Props will be watched

In the sixth Moran tried to get over a
finishing punch. but Langdon covered up
and lasted out the bout, fighting gamely
to the end.
Moran showed his class in the very first
round, when he several times drove Lang

hands. In the second round Langdon got
two fast jabs on the nose that took some

MURDER AND NOT SUICIDE.
Coroner Decides Mrs. Esther Brandt
Was Victim of Assassin,

POTTSVILLE, Pa. February 16.-An
examination Of the body of Mrs. Esther
Brandt, who was found dead at her home
here in December, has convinced the cor
oner Of Schuylkill county that the woman
had been murdered. The body of Mrs
Brandt was found lying in her kitchen
with two deep gashes in the neck and
carving knife lying close by. 1t was the
general opinion that she had committed
suicide, and a coroners jury, without ex-
amin;ng the body, rendered a verdict of
suicide.
An investigation since has convinced the
family of the woman that she had been
murdered. and they obtained permission
to have the body exhumed and an ex-
animation made. a sum of money be-
lieved to have been kept in the house
was missing. which led to the theory of
murder and robbery. Two suspects are
under surveillance, and the authorities
expect to make arrests shortly.
