CANANEA PLAYER
IS MAKING GOOD

Frank Truesdale, who played with
Cananea before going TO the Texas
league, is making ii stick with the st.
Louis Browns, as the keystone baseman.
Truesdale is one of the fastest base
runners ever seen at work in the south
west and his stiffness on his feet also
makes him a fast infielder. The only
handicap he has to overcome is his
eagerness to get the ball. and his errors
caused by this same overeagerness- He
is also hitting the ball on the nose,
having landed three hits in the game
recently played with the Oklahoma City
team The St Louis Post-Dispatch says
of Truesdale:
FRANKIE Truesdale showed that his
eye is getting on the bali by getting
three hits This boy fields beautifully,
bat ne had not found his stride, and
today's work tends to bear him out.
Besides this, he stole three bases, which
is in direct line with the OConnor
scheme of play. Wise ones who watched
his work in the Texas league last year
declare If the Maplewood candidate is
going at his top speed, not even the
much touted Olson can beat him out
of the second base position If he really
has struck a hitting gait, there is
job waiting for him. With a good peg
10 fit the hole at second. the Browns
would be more formidable than they
have been for years"

fornia the child of a common law
marriage who has been unprovid-
ed for during her parents life
time and who is unmentioned in
such parents will, shares equally
with his other children in his
estate.
The Los Angeles city hall holds
the record of her birth, with her

He was married thrice and di-

miner, hotel baniface, race track
plunger, breeder of horses, real

litigant. Lawyers fattened on him
but he lost few suits. He got his

GREAT LEGAL BATTLE ON FOR MILLIONS
LEFT BY LUCKY BALW|N, TURF KING
Especial Correspondence


LOS ANGELES, Aug. 2O.-Out
of New England has come here a
charming winsome maid of II to
fight for a daughters share of the
millions left by Lucky" Baldwin,
famous horseman, who died over
year ago on his magnificent princi-
pality known as the Santa Anita
ranch, near Los Angeles.
AS strange a romance as was
ever penned by the most up-to-
date novelist is told in the plain
statement of the claim of Beatrice
Anita Baldwin Turnbull. She
says she is the daughter of the
man who left 100000, 700, and
that she knew nothing of her ia
theirs identity during all the years
of her life until her mother broke
the silence year ago to urge her
daughters rights. Now mother
and daughter have settled here for
the long struggle for the wealth
of the dead turfman.
To the Tacoma Times eorre-
|spondent here Mrs. Turnbull and
her daughter told their story. Mrs.
Turnbull is the daughter of VIM.
A. Ashley and grew up on his
stock farm at Royalton, VT. To
Royalton came Baldwin in the COS
to buy horses for his famous
breeding farm and racing stable
Lillian Ashley, who helped her
father in his dealings, often met
the millionaire.
Baldwin took a fancy to the
girl, and they corresponded. In
1892, her father having died,
Baldwin visited her and when she
was one of an excursion party to
California he met her in Southern
California and persuaded her to
go to San Francisco with him.
There she says he welded her at
common law, telling her he was
divorced man, but that he could
not marry her publicly because he
had already had too much noto-
riety by his daughter clipping with
her cousin.
Lillian Ashley says she and
Baldwin drew up and signed a
marriage contract. She went to
live with him at Santa Anita, and
six months later learned that he
had wife living. She fled from
him, and soon was born the
daughter who now seeks to inherit
part of his fortune.
She entered suit against Bald
win and at the trial her sister,
Laura Ashley, tried to kill the
turfman in the courtroom in San
Francisco. Her bullet went wild,
and though she was acquitted by
Ia jury the shot rang through the
rest of the trial and had its weight
in the verdict against the girl vic
tim of Baldwin.
Miss Ashley, with her baby,
went to New York, and there met
and married VIM. Barron Turn
bull, an orthopoedic surgeon.
From that time, under the shelter
ing care of her husband, her life
was spent placidly in their home
in Boston until the news of the
death of Lucky" Baldwin over a
year ago awoke the mother to the
sense of her daughters rights to
the vast wealth of her father. She
consulted lawyers and they told
her that under the laws of Cali
