lest batsmen in the league.
Darby OBrien and Mike Griffin, both
deceased, were stars in the BROOKLYN
outfield in 1891 and 1892.
Walter Brodie dug up by the late
Frank Selee, also made a big reputa-
ton with the Bostons at that time.
Brodie later played with the Baltimores
and continued to be star.
Joe Kelley, manager of the toronto
club. also made himself famous as
Baltimores left fielder, leading the
league in 1893, 1898 and 1899.
Ed Delehanty. who committed sui
eide several years ago, was Philadel-
phia's pride when he proved the best
left fielder in 1895 and 1897. He was
originally a second baseman, but Har-
nv Wright decided to turn him into
an outflelder.
Del, as he was Familiarity called by
the fans, was one of the leagues big
sluggers and with the noted LaJoie
following him in the batting order,
many pitchers were made to look cheap.
Philadelphia, and later Boston, had
a~splendid outnelder in Billy Hamil-
ton, now a New England league man
ager. Hamilton, a little fellow, with
short legs, was the leagues champion
base runner for a time and also
solid hitter.
Kid Selbach and Eddie Burke, both

London, April sO-(Special.)-To most
every European throne there are pre-
tenders, some more troublesome than
others, but seldom in recent years have
we heard of any question as 10 the
rights of Englands royal family. A
pretender to the throne of the British
Empire exists, however, in the person of
Princess Ludwig of Bavaria, formerly the
Archduchess Marie Theresa of Este.
Princess Ludwig is the last lineal de-
scendant of the Stuarts and claimed by
the Legitimists, of England to be the
rightful sovereign. She Is direct de-
scendant of Henrietta Anne, Duchess of
Orleans. who was the eighth child of
Charles I. While King Edward V. is the
son of the late Queen Victoria. who was
only descended from daughter of
James ].
According to the Legitimists, only for
the act of settlement, which passed the
English parliament in 17O1 by majority
of one, and which they consider illegal
Princess Ludwig. would be Queen Mary
". of England and III. of Scotland.
Prince Rupert, eldest Son of Princess
Ludwig, would therefore be the rightful
Prince of Wales, and heir to the throne
But unlike many pretenders, Princess
Ludwig is satisfied with her present
position in life and does not long for
royal honors. In 1868 she married Prince
Ludwig and she now lives quietly In the
Palace of Wittelsbach in Munich, while
her husband rules over the country in
place of mad King Otto. They are very
popular among all classes and their
only trouble was removed a few years
ago when their eldest son, Prince Rupert
was married. He seemed to be most re-
luctant to enter the matrimonial bonds
He married in 1900 Princess Gabrielle,
daughter of Duke Carl Theoor of Ba-
varia.
As to the personality of the Princess
'pretender," she is described as being a
most amiable and unambitious woman, Is

Prince Rupert, the rightful Prince of
Wales, does not lay any claim to the
throne now occupied by King Edward
VII. and never gives any attention to
the Legitimists' demonstrations. On the
contrary when the late Queen Victoria
celebrated her diamond jubilee the prince
came to England and offered her his
congratula lions which won for him great
praise.
The last outbreak of the Legitimists
that was of any consequence was on
January %, 1910, when some of Princess s
Ludwig adherents were bold enough to
post placards on that night. avowing
that the Grown of England doth of
right belong to her most gracious ma
jesty Queen Mary w, whom God de-
fend."
The result of this bold act was that
many people were convinced that the
placard was the truth and at the pre-
sent time there are thousands in England
who still believe that King Edward VII.
is an imposter.
Another effect of the protest was that
for the first time since 1893 the Light
mists were not allowed, on January 30
to place wreath on the statue of King
Charles !. in Whitehall.
In 1902 the Jacobites placarded London
with proclamations demanding that the
English people rise and dethrone the
"Imposter Edward" This action created
quite furore but the Stuart descendants,
however, never joined in the movement
and have always been royal and respec-
tive to the existing regime.
Mary w. is very well known in Eng
land and is loved by everybody wit |
whom she comes in contact. Every
year Princess Ludwig, with all of the
family of Stuart lineage. comes to ERg-
lang on a pilgrimage to the tombs of
those Stuarts whose remains rest in
Westminster Abbey.

Henry Vile, Rolling With the
Testers, Hangs Up a Score of
l02 at the Difficult Game.
Andys from Paterson Had
ROOters With Them.
BY BERT

was left for a 16-year-old lad,
Henry Vile, bowling with the
Testers, to record the feature tally
last night in the STAR headpin tour
namen on h Iroquois alleys. He was
the only n of the sixty bowlers to
get beyond the century mark. His
score was 102 and he will obtain one of
the watch-fobs offered by the STAR.
Young Vile is a son of John Vile, who
is a well-known southCaw bowler. Par
ticular credit is due the lad because
he made his mark of 1O2 in spite of a
miss in the second frame. He began
with a strike and, after making his
slip, got another strike in the third
frame. Six pins fell on a light hit in
the fourth box, but he followed with
two more strikes n completed the
first half of his frame with a score Of
46. He got nine pins in the seventh
frame and nine again in the eighth.
Then followed a strike and then two
mines A. strike. for a windup COM
pleted his string, and he received a
well-earned round of applause.
There was the usual big turnout of
spectators last night. The Andys, from
Paterson, brought along ten rooters
with them and the fifteen from the Silk
City had lots Of fun, even though they
failed to annex any watch-fobs. Burke
was in hard luck and came in for no
end of joshing, for he tailed SO. He
rolled in steady style until the eighth
frame and then missed. He then got
nine pins n a strike and had a score
of so in the tenth frame. He needed
two strikes and made a pretty air hit
in the eleventh frame. But nine pins
fell, however, and a strike in the
twelfth frame was not quite enough to
bring him up to the century mark.
Finigan, of the same team, had two
misses and did well to net 80.
In the first squad last night We're the
Crawford Five and the Clark's O. n. T.
quintet. There was a lack of good pin
ming. Smith, because of fouls and in
ability to hit the headpin more than
twice, had a tally of but IS. Sabentz
got six hits out of seven and then
missed for. the rest of his game. Gag
sidy, for the O.. N. 7, team, had three
misses, but managed to get together a
score of 50.
The Clark's Clerks Inc the Daisy Five
made up the second squad. Brown. of
the Daisyss rolled ten frames without
a mistake and had a score of 81. Then
he missed n had to be satisfied with
a total of SO. Wanstall tailed SO. with
two misses. Young Vile got in his 102

ing with the Testers. Wittschiebe. of
the Testers, rolled So, but the other
members failed to hit the headpin
regularly. M. Bal got to it but twice
for a score of is.
The Orientals and the Haverlocks
missed with regularity and made low
scores. 1t was the same way with the
White Lilies. but the Andys, of Pater-
