Hermann Keeps Mum

Cincinnati, March 2S.-August Herr mann. chairman of the national baseball commission, refused 10 discuss MT. John- sons statement regarding the Kling case.
 No decision has been reached official ly," he said, 'and the commission will have nothing to announce on the case for few days yet.'
 Monday of last week Chairman Herr man announced that after an exchange of views by mail and telegraph the na- tional baseball commission had been un- able to agree, and that a meeting to con- slider the Kling case had been called for Friday. On that day long session was held, Messrs. Johnson, Herman and Lynch being present.
 At it's close Announcement was made that no decision had been reached, but that further mail and wire exchanges would be used in an effort to perfect a finding. The decision, 1t was said would be given out not later than Thursday of this week. Since then no intimation has come from the national commission head quarters here that any change of pro- grame had been decided upon, and Mir Herrmans declaration of today is taken to mean that the original plan will be followed. Members of the commission ex- planed after Fridays meeting that a pledge of secrecy had been exacted from all concerned and that nothing authori- tative would be forthcoming in advance of the official promulgation of the de cree.

Romance of the Figure Five

Louisville, Ky, March 2S.-The figure have played an unusually active part in the romance of MT. and Mrs. Clarence H. Duncan, a Louisville couple. The fact leaked out yesterday that they had been married in Jeffersonville, five miles from this city, on the 18th of this month. They were born on the same day, May 25, 1885, which will make each of them 20 years old in little over five weeks. They first met in 1905, five years ago. They paid the magistrate s5 and as they left his home they had exactly five minutes in which to catch a car.

Lynch Averse to Talking

New York. March 8.-President Lynch, of the National league, declined tonight to discuss the Kling case or to comment on Johnson's remarks. Baseball men in New York regard the American league ex- presidents explanation premature in that the understanding was that no formal an- nouncement that King was to be rein stated with possible penalties was not to be made until Friday next. Furthermore, 1t is not quite clear why Johnson's name should have been affixed to the findings at all, inasmuch as he is understood to have dissented from the majority opinion throughout

state board of management, in which
she will hereafter, probably, sit as a
representative.
A discussion was had as to whether
or not the clubs would undertake the
sale of tickets for the Midwinter ex-
position. The United Commercial
Travellers have charge of the conces-
sions at the exposition; so the club
women were unable to secure any of
them as a means for raising money
for the club house, as they had hoped.
For some business reasons, the U. c.
T. objected to allowing the control Of
the concessions to pass out of their
hands, and offered in place of that
privilege, the sale of tickets. Accord
ing to the terms, 10000 should be sold
at the full price. Is cents each, and
after that many had been disposed of,
the clubs were to have the proceeds
from the sale of all additional tickets.
The meeting voted down the offer.
The Ramb1ers club will meet Mon
day afternoon with Mrs. c. H. Roney,
1105 Kansas avenue.

EVENING CHAT
BY RUTH CAMERON.

heard another chapter of a life
story, which have been reading
serially for several years, yesterday,
and it gave me SO much food for
thought that want to tell it to you.
I'm going to call the heroine-no,
won't cali her the heroine, the sub
ject-of the tale, Griselda, because, by
rights, that ought to be her name.
Griselda has an utterly worthless
husband. She also has three small
children. The two usually go together,
as you may have noticed.
I will relate to you few of the
things which Griselda's husband has
done to earn his title.
In the first place he has trade at
which he can get plenty of work and
can earn four dollars a day, but he
hasn't worked more than three or four
months any year of their marriage.
They had not been married a month
before he got hold of Griselda's saw
ings and spent them. The bank de-
scribed these savings as 5000. A more
accurate description would have been
so many thousand hours spent over
an ironing machine, so many Thousand
shirt waists and shirts, so many ten of
thousands of collars and cuffs ironed
for Griselda was hardworking
laundry girl before he persuaded her
to be the presiding genius of his home.
When this money was gone, pre-
tending to go into business and settle
down, he borrowed four hundred dol
lars of Griselda's sister and mother.
That has never been paid back.
Twice he has left Griselda for sew
eral months at time. On one of these
occasions, he was absent when her nrst
baby was born.
Several times he has beaten Griselda
when he was drunk. 1 have seen her
arms black and blue.
Once he threw plate at his little
boy and cut his cheek so that several
SfifoheS had fn he taken.
Through all this, Griselda has been
absolutely faithful, devoted and forgiv-
ing. Once only did she falter and that
was when he threw the plate at the
boy. Then she allowed the society
with the long name to enter COM
plant against him, but when the case
came up, she refused to appear. =
Maybe you don't see a great deal of
food for thought in this story.
Granted, but the fodo for thought
came from comment which I heard
made on the story.
After a six months absence. during
which, freed from the drain of his
presence, Griselda had successfully
supported the children and was on her
feet again, he reappeared. -.
One of the charity workers who had
helped her from time to time. tried to
persuade her not to take the man
is back again. The home is again a
home of disorder and turmoiI-no
home at all. The children again creep
around in fear. Her earnings are
again spent in drink while she and the
children are half fed.
And this is what the commentator
said when he heard that Griselda had
taken her husband back.
"What a beautiful and wonderful
thing is woman's love-
Do you call the feeling that made
Griselda sacrifice four lives to one,
wonderful and beautiful?
don't. I call it ugly and disgrace
ful-a mania and an obsession rather
than an affection.
Is it because I'm hard and unfeeling
that I can't understand?
That's what I'm wondering about.
That's my food for thought.
