Mrs. o. 81. Woods Meets Death

Mrs. o. H. Woods is dead as the re-
suit of fall, Wednesday morning,
down an elevator shaft at. Zbornik
Bros store. Mrs. Woods was doing
some trading and was being waited up
on by the lady clerk, who was not in a
position to observe Mrs. Woods, and
the others were at work out of doors,
so no one can give an exact account of
the affair.
The shaft is in the southeast corner
of the building, protected on the west
side by substantial railing and on the
north side by large refrigerator, and
near to this is the end of counter, SO
the open elevator shaft it was
necessary for Mrs. Woods to practic-
ally go behind the counter and also
walk through an opening scarcely. a
foot in width and about three feet in
length.
Mrs. Woods disappearance was
noted and she was found lying groaning
and unconscious on the cement floor of
the basement, having fallen about eight
feet. DIR. Hess was summoned and the
injured~woman was taken to her home,
where she passed away after about two
hours, without regaining consciousness.
Death was the result of internal injur-
les.
The funeral takes place tomorrow
afternoon, with interment in New
Oregon cemetery.

quotation of the PLAIN DEALER, that

said in regard to knockers and do

dates (some of whom are in that class)
but to the professional politicians and
knockers who sought to retard. the
progress of the city ard "knock" the
financial standing of the city in the
public prints, all for partisan or
personal reasons, and who were the
prime movers in the selection of the
ticket and preparing it's platform.

LOTS OF GRAY MATTER NEEDED
Managers In Big Leagues Prefer Men
Who Have Fine Baseball Brain to
Those That Possess Natural Ability
Without Good Noodle.

By BOBBY WALLACE.


Copyright, 1910. by American Press Asso
ciation.l
The baseball player of today needs
lots of gray matter in order to stay il
the game. This is my theory. The
man who keeps his thinking apparatus
working all the time is the one thai
rersains in the game season after sea
son, winning the appreciation of the
fans and the satisfaction that comes
with thing well done. Managers are
looking for the fellows who can think
quickly and correctly and use their gray
matter to the best possible advantage.
He Is always willing to pay almost
any amount for a man who can pull
of the seemingly impossible.
Natural ability is wonderful asset
There are many managers and owners
who say, "Give me a man with the
natural ability to hit the bah and lust
average ability in the other depart
ments of the game and win make a
star out Of him." Such an assertion
would be a truthful one If the player
In question happened to possess gray
matter. If he happened to be a bone
head much Of his natural ability would
go to waste, simply because he failed
to use bis energy in the proper direc-
ton.
Take, for instance, the position Of
shortstop. In order to hold down this
job player must be fast. He must
think fast, throw fast and be fast on
his feet A shortstop has no time to
stop and figure out the next move.
Brains. hand ard feet mus work as
one. The faster a player is the more
ground he can cover, provided he s:as
an arm capable Of catapulting the ban
across the field to first base.
Until year or SO ago Terry Turner
of the Cleveland Americans had won
derful whip and wonderful catlike
agility. This he still maintains. al
though his arm is not what it used to
be. When Turner's arm was in good
shape he was one of the wonders of
the game.
Some men have played short for
years, and among them are men who
made good after they commenced to
get slow, simply because they pos
sessed fine baseball brains and used
them all the time. They knew where
ind how to play every man at bat.
Young players who aspire to fame
Is shortfieIders must learn to come in
on slow ground balls at express speed,
grab the ball and whip it to first with
'ut the loss OF second. They must
earn to throw from any position; they
must face cannon ball drives without
iinching and know instantly what to
10 with the ball when 1T is in their
lands; they must practice touching
'ut a runner at second, for about half
he throws to catch base runners are
aiken by the shorttielder, and they
must use their hands and feet and
heir brains at all times.
A ball player Of fair ability with
rains is always preferable to a bone
cad with all the natural ability in the
7orld.
