BASEBALL GOSSIP

King Cole IL proving t. the Chicago
Cubs this season what Edgar willett
and Eddie Summers did to the Detroit
Tigers in 190S-a life saver.
The veteran twirlers of the Cubs
have not shown the class this year
that they did in 1906-07-Os. when the
Chance machine won the National
league pennant. or in 1909. when they
were runners-up to the Pittsburg Pi.
rates. But King Cole has jumped into
the breach and by his own individual
efforts has landed the Cubs on top Of
the heap.
To date Cole has won fifteen of
eighteen games, q percentage of 1888,
leading all of the National league
pitchers except the veteran Deacon
Phillippi of Pittsburg, who has won
nine of ten games. The Cubs have
a lead OF seven games in the old lea
que race. Where would they be with
out Coles fifteen victories?
The Tigers would never have won
the 1908 flag but for the great work
of their kid pair. Summers won "a
of Sc. showing a .667 mark; while
Willett pitched in Is victories and q
defeats, .625 mark. Donovan was the
only Bengal veteran who delivered 4

year.-Cleveland Press.

Manager Griffith of Cincinnati has

WOMAN KNOWS HOW
Thief Steals Money and She
Takes It Back Again in a
Thrilling Manner.
FAlNTS; GIVES EXPERIENCE

Indianapolis, March 19.-"How does
it feel to have a hand to hand encoun-
ter with highwayman? was asked Of
Mrs. William Moore, the woman who
proved herself a heroine by struggling
with a highwayman until she had re-
covered IS Of the money the thief had
taken from her husband. Mrs. Moore
says it was done SO quickly she hardly
knows how she did feel. When she
saw the highwayman run she tainted
and did not recover until the police ar
rived.
Il had always thought" said Mrs.
Moore, who was seen today at her
home. 43 N. Pine street today. that
should I encounter q highwayman or
a burglar I would be so frightened
could do nothing to protect myself.
Yet when I saw the man strike my hus-
band and saw him fall in the street
and the highwayman going through
his pockets, before l knew what I was
doing, I was struggling with the man
and succeeded in getting back part of
the money. There were two of the
highwaymen. Only one took part In
the robbery and the other did not offer
to help him when he saw me fighting
man I had grappled with run, faint
ed, and that is the last that l remem-
ber."

it. AS far as l know there is nothing
in the laws of the Baptist church that
forbids such amusement.
MY own home is bit small for
even party of the size l intended to
give. Besides my mother isn't very
we'll just at present. and altogether
thought 1t would be more convenient
to entertain my friends at the home of
my sister, Mrs. Harry Mcdowell, who
lives at 245 First street, next door.
Therefore we asked the members of
the bowling club to come over for an
evening-it was all extremely informal.
Played "Five Hundred.
1--WE didn't even play bridge-just
five hundred There was just one
wee little prize, dainty, inexpensive
china bonbon dish. Well, that's really
all there is to it. We met and played
cards a couple of hours and one of us
who had the highest score got my bon
boniere, and then We had little
spread and went home. And every
body said they had a perfectly good
time.
when I went that day as usual. he
told me frankly that he had heard Of
the card party, and that he could not
tolerate any such conduct among those
who were helping him in his church
work. I told him that l did not think
1 had done anything wrong and that
couldn't say had when l hadn't. And
it's true and l say it now"

SALlBRAN'S CAPTIVITY.

A Romantic incident In the Career Of
the Great Singer.
The following incident is told of
Nine. Maiibran, whose voice once
upon a time excited the most unro-
mantle to folly.
She was resting in her dressing room
at the theater after singing in the
part Of Desdemona, her passionate
soul still Quivering with the emotion
Of the part and the tears and applause
of her listeners. A person entered
and begged ner to 60 to her mother,
who had been taken Ill. A carriage,
not her own. was at the door. She
was whirled through the streets and
led, much to her surprise and fear,
into q strange house and to an excel
lent boudoir, hung and carpeted with
rose colored silk.
Here the beautiful songstress was
left alone after being assured by her
attendants that her mother was well,
that the message was a subterfuge and
that her captivity would last until she
sang something.
On a low seat sat a Tyre such as
that which thrilled in Malibran's I'm
gers as she sang Desdemona's touch
ing song.
At first she determined to resist, but
after short time her mind reverted
to the evening, and almost uncOn-
sciously she took up the instrument
and sang the Romance de Saule." As
she concluded sounds Of enthusiastic
applause and trembling accents Of de-
light came to her through the silk
hangings, and she was then conducted
by liveried servants to her carriage
and to her home.
The next morning she found on her
table a casket containing a magnih.
cent pair of earrings, and inside the
cover, written in diamonds, was the
word "Merci." But the event re-
NAMED a mystery to her forever.

Goaded.

Saving became a passion with the
man and the woman. No privation
was too great II so by it they might
add to their accumulations. And they
labored jointly. The woman's sacrifice
was in every respect equal to that Of
the man.
But when they had amassed $4,000
the man, because he had the power,
took the money and purchased with it
not the automobile which he had led
his faithful wife to expect, but a
home. "Brutev' she cried, and when

blame her?-Puck.
