JACK JOHNSON HOME
 WITH THE BACON. Mother Has a Chicken Cooking-Jack Plans To Take Thinks Easy.

Chicago, July 7-Jack Johrson champion of all prize fighters. tonight l is once more at home with his nanny and his automobile..
 Five thousand members of his race and a large number of white persons made the living wall at the Chicago and Northwestern railway station where he landed on his return from when the fighter looming above the crowd, fought his way smiling through mandclasps and pats on the back to a waiting automobile.
 With rush and a roar that left all behind, Jack in his new racing car dashed madly home, where his mother, Mrs. Tiny Johnson and the members of his family waited in the midst of another crowd of thousands.
 He pushed his way into the house amid deafening roars, and with tears streaming down his face embraced his mother. Behind him compatriot struggled through the crowd, bearing aloft a smoked bacon side, symbolic of Johnson's own message home:
 I'm coming home with the bacon.
 You doan need no bacon chile,' cried the aged Mrs. Johnson. "ah want to tell yo Tse got mighty fine chickin cookin' out heah in de kitchin and yo knows how you likes watah melon We have got some dandies, Jack"
 Now Jack" said a reporter, what are you going to do? What about Sam Langford and your mothers saying you were to quit fighting forever. and your trip to Europe?"
 Glad to be asked all at once," he re- piled, cause I can say I don't know it all have enough money to last me till next week and I am going to find out what's doing before I do anything. Sam Langford, or anyone else, better get his money up first, and then pro- ceed to whip me afterward.
 His future plans, he said, would be outlined only generally and this is how he generaliZed them:
 Sleep some, eat a pile of good eata- bles and drive my car"

BASEBALL STARS
 HAVE SHORT LIFE
Average Player Lasts Lonser-6is
 6iazes Burn Out Quick.

The greater the star the quicker the fall. seems to be a cardinal principle in baseball. The good, average play CT goes along year after year. sticking to the same old pace and holding on to his job by steady, grinding work. The star. however, lives up to his name He shines and flashes and dies out, almost in a breath.
 There are many who could be named to illustrate the example. Nealon, the Pirate first baseman of three or four years ago, was one. On the coast he blooomed up in a day almost and the play. Then Pittsburg grabbed him up at the highest rrice ever paid for a minor leaguer, and he rose to his height and fell back into mediocrity in the short space of six months. The Pirates couldn't get rid of him quick ly enough. and you never hear of him as a ball player now.
 Jiggs Donahue, once of the Chicago Sox is another After playing aver age ball for several seasons in the as first sacker who ate 'em up." So. Comislkey grabbed him off, and he lasted for a very few years. In the world series of 1906 his work against the supreme time of his baseball life. The following season he fell off bad ly, and an average, steady-going fel- low, Isbell, supplanted him. Now Jiggs IS content to run semi pro. team in Chicago.
 Take the steady fellows who can generally be relied on in pinches. There are scores of them, and their career always is long and honorable in the majors. Stovau of Cleveland. Crawford of the Tigers, Dougherty of tine Sox, Schulte of the Cubs, Stafnl of the Red Sox, and Wallace of the Browns are examples. They have seen many stars come and go, but are cling ing to their positions, and will keep them for years to come, in all proba- bilitV

PINCH LETTERS
 NOT USED BY SENATORS
McAIeer Lets Regulars Do Their Own
 Work.

Manager McAleer of Washington does not believe in pinch hitters- that is, he does not believe in taking out one of his regulars to let a sub stitute bat-and in this way he has undoubtedly made a most timely hit ter out of George Mcbride. Cantillon as a. hitter. and whenever there was a pinch some one was sent to bat for Mac. The result was that he seldom got chance to bat in runs at a crit ical stage and he was forced to believe in his own weakness with the stick. This year he has been allowed to go to the plate, no matter what the con- ditions might be. He has been moved up into a higher position in the bat ting order and he has delivered more than any other batter on the team.

He wishes the match to take place in Norwich and is ready to jut up a side bet. He will wrestle catch as ca tch can, two out of three falls. Schnabe1 balances the scales at 210 and McGrath is nearly as heavy al that, so a good even match will be in prospect if they get together.

EATERS NEED NERVE.
Stand up to the Plate if You Expect to
 Hit the Ball.

Confidence, nerve and good eyesight are essential for success in batting A the idea that he is bound to hit. He should give the pitcher credit for hav- ing something, and be prepared to match his own cleverness against it, It takes nerve to stand up against the ball and step into it, but that Is what batsman must show. The minute you begin to pull away the pitcher knows that he has something on you, and likely as not he will get you. When a man lets a fast one go by his head without winking, however. and stands up looking the pitcher in the eye, it gives him something on his opponents.
 If the man on the mound wastes one at your head, just get out of the way and edge a little closers to the plate to show him that such tactics aren't go- ing to worry you. Then he will pitch ball and you will get good one next time. Everyone that is wide is a ball that much. Some batsmen make a mistake in trying to get the pitcher in a hole all the time. It is best to slam the first good one when there are men on bases. The system, however, might not always work out. It is case of a mans judgment, many> times, but it seems that as you only can hit one any way, it might just as well be the first one that comes where you like it.
 There are many things to be con sidered in batting: The score, 1he stage of the game. the number of men on the bases, and so on through a long chapter. No batsman can be thinking of himself alone, for the principal ob- ject in baseball is to win games and not to fatten up batting averages. There are lots of teams that make a pile of hits, but few runs. Bunting is a fine thing to get ones eye on the ball. One must meet them squarely to bunt. and it helps to train one to fol- low the course of the sphere all the way up. When in a slump chopping at the ball also benefits.

Conneeticut's Growth.

That Connecticut is a waxing and not waning state is impressively in dicated by the assessed valuation Of taxable property.
 According to the report of Tax Com missioner Corbin, the final corrected grand list of the state on October 1, 1909, was s965.629,s07. But that fig ure includes SIPS, 900 added by the board of equalization. If the present grand list, as it was before being m flsted by the equalization board, is compared with the list of ten years agc. the result is striking. Here are the tive lists:
 Grand list of state. Oct. 1,
 1909 .. ............-..... .sS37, ,o22, ,s07 Grand list of state, Oct. 1,
 1853 ..---......-.... 5fO,l55,I43
 Increase during 10 years .s2s5, ,s59, ,05g
 It is, indeed, probable that the aver age basis Of assessment is higher now than it was decade ago, but even when all possible allowance is made for that. the expansion is striking. The past ten years has been a period of remarkable growth for Connecticut. The aggregate wealth of the com monwealth S~ss piled up rapidly. The principal reason may be found in the development of the industrial ac1ivi- ties of the commonwealth. The amount of industrial construction and expansion during the period. particu- lariy in the metal and textile centers, has attained colossal figures. Every new factory that is built means more dwelling houses, more population, more trade, more general business. The effect is diffusive and widespread.
 Connecticut is steadily growing Zig ger and buster. It's growth was never more rapid than it is now, and the growth rests on solid foundations.- Providence Journal.

Feels Marion High School Cancelled
Date With Them Because Of

Hopkinsville. KY, May 25. To
the people of Marion and Crit
tenden county:
The information has come to
us from reliable sources that
because of certain aspersions
cast upon our city and our stu
dentbody, the manager of Ma
rion High School base ball team
cancelled a date with a team in
this city.
We invite the people of Ma
rion and the students of Marion

gage in interscholastic contests
with us and see what fair and
gentlemanly treatment is really
received by visitors in our city.
Madisonville and Hopkinsville
High schools were contestants

Western Kentucky. This honor
was won by our school.
We had a large silken
banner made to commemorate
our victory. This banner we
carried to Paducah and displayed
at the third annual meeting of
the Western Kentucky Oratorial
League.
The morning after the con-
test certain Madisonville stu
dents obtained this banner from
The clerk at the Palmer House by |
looming our colors and resOrting |
20 other false pretences. This |
banner has never been returned. |
That it is now in jacksonville is
IN absolute certainty. The
IDENTIFY of the coward has never
been discovered.
Because of our protest against
his proceeding the student
,ody of Madisonville High School

ibeling and defaming our city

the farmer is happy and prosper
Gus the nation is safe, but when
! ne is half fed and clothed and
dragged out a miserable exist
ence, then the nation is in dan
ger.
The speaker said that the
cause of the farmers in organic
ing was second only to the cause
OF the revolutionary war. That
our forefathers rebelled because
they were taxed without repre-
sentation and that the famers
were rebelling to day because
they had to sell with out having
any voice in the prices of the
article they sold. He said that
everything from the newsboy
up to the richest corporations
were organized and the only
way to meet them was by coun-
ter organization. He referred
to the miners and showed how
they had bettered their condition
by banding together, and said
that the farmers by organizing
solidly could cope with the
greatest capitalists in the world,
for he had the bread of life-he |
fed and clothed the world, and
the man of millions could not
eat his money and was bound to
favor the farmer in order to get |
the things that prolong life. |
He urged the farmers to get into
the A. S. of E. and pool their
products as well as tobacco, and
aid that they could control
prices and cope with the devil
and his hosts,
He favored organization and
a rule that no one but
be allowed to pool. |
He paid his respects to the man
who would not pool his tobacco
but dumped it on the market
and got the benefit of the farm
ers who did pool. He said it
was as sueaking as milking a
neighbours COW through fence
and that the bumper had no bns-
mess any where but with the
trusts or the devil. He said
Lhese fellows generally said that
.hey can attend to their own
business. Continuing, Mr..
Sharp said: Let them alone
cave them to attend to their
,wn business; don't go about
hem; let them thresh their own
wheat and roll their own logs
md he will soon find that he
ant run his own business with
lis neighbors against him, and
will come into the union. There
S no use to use violence-you
an organize without that. The
rusts can't exist without the
cooperation of the famer, and
he farmer who refuses to pool
us products and help the men
Who are striving for better con-
Iitions is worse enemy to or
yanization than the trusts.
'ome men are so foolish that {
hey hold a ten cent piece so
lose to their eye they can't see {
he $50 gold piece about three I
eet away.
