FANS ARE PULLING FOR
RECOVERY OF TIM HURST
Richest Card.in Base Ball Is Seriously Ill
Was Never Downed in Wrangling
With Players-F1is Repartee.

Timothy Hurst, umpire. and one OF the
| richest cards that ever got into the only
game, is seriously i'll. blood-poisoned
ankle having temporarily downed him.
| says w. A. Phelan. The doctors have
hopes that he will pull through nicely,
and both fans and players will pull for
Tim to make good Even Eddie Collins
will hope for Tins recovery. and it was
| on account of Collins that Tim passed out
of the big leagues
In the course of an argument two years
back, Tim wanted to spit Well. then,
expectorate. if you want it that way. His
eyes were not as good as they used to be.
and he used Collins expression for a
cuspldor. This, in the eyes of Ban John
son, was stepping over the line of base
ball etiquette, and SO Tim got the hook.
Thus ended the big league career of the
famous arbiter-the scrappiest umpire
that ever lived, and one of the most en-
tertaining
stories could be told about Tim Hurst
from the go ng down of the SIN till
dawn. and the supply wouldn't be half
exhausted. He furnished material for
more run in the places where fans and
players bunch together than any other

As Fighter.
Tim was a fighter. Always and in

In Repartee.
When Tim shone Notwithstanding

artee. He was master of soft and
emile language. and the toughest of
old-time players couldn't get one over on
ann when it came to an exchange of
verbal courtesy. One afternoon at Chi
ago. when the old Baltimores were
raging and fighting for a game, Jake
Stencil slid for the plate "Outv' crieu

devouring demon.

while Hurst looked on him with a sinister
grin.
In the middle of the first inning Dahlen
called Tim something. all right-but Tim
never said a word. In the 81 cond inning
Bill repeated it with trimmings. Then
spoke Bill in a stage whisper. For
Mikes sake. Tim. put me out OF the
game! I'm burning up!'

Jouett Meekin, once a great pitcher.
came up to Tim one night at the hotel.
Be it known that Mr.. Meekin was an eco
nomical cuss, and when he bought any
thlng-clothing, for example-it lasted
him for many and many day. Said Mr..
Meekin to Mr.. Hurst: Tim, I'm going to
masquerade tonight. What costume could
1 wear?" why don't you wear that
Prince Albert coat you've got these many
years, and go as mirror?"
McGtaw Thought It.

McGraw.

Tebeau's Try.
Pat Tebeau tried to terrorize Tim
Hurst one day. Once and only once. It
was in Cleveland. and at the time when
the old Baltimores and the old Cieve-
lands used to fight every battle like
wolves and Barzoi hounds. Pat sought
Tim out before the game, and. pointing
to the field crowd, held back by ropes

Today is the anniversary of the death
of Heloise, whose love for Abelard stands
for all times as the type of woman's
noblest. self-sacrificing devotion Poets
and romancers have seized eagerly on the
story, till now. toward the end of thou
sand years, it is embedded In the litera-
ture of dozen nations.
Born in 1101, little is known of her early
life. except that she was brought up by
her uncle, a canon, who gave her the
best education that the age afforded. 1t
is said that she spoke Latin as we'll as
her own language In intellect she was
precocious and brilliant. OF bright,
amiable and afectionate nature, her
beauty was extraordinary for its ANNA
tiou, and soulfulness. She early won uni
evrsal admiration, and at the age of Is
drew around her a circle of the most
brilliant scholars of Paris.
Among those whom she met was the
famous priest and logician, Peter Abe
lard, a man of middle age. noble birth
and commanding person. The most brill
liant scholar of his age he completely
fascinated and enthralled her. Uncon-
sciously, almost she yielded to him; they
loved and were secretly married.

anime the answers and the record and

ASKED LAWLER TO WRITE.
In the discussion of the second even
ing, Mr.. Lawler. who was present at
my suggestion, discussed the evidence
at some length. 1 said to Mr.. Lawler
that 1 was very anxious to write a
full statement OF the case, and set
out the reasons for my decision, but
that the time for my departure on a
long western trip. occupying two months
was just one week from that day; that
had some six or seven set speeches
to deliver at the beginning of that jour-
ney, and that I could not give the
time to the preparation of such q de-
tailed statement and opinion as I would
like to render in the matter. / there
fore requested Mr.. Lawler to prepare
an opinion as If he were president.
During the Sth, 9Th and 10th l gave
such consideration to the CLAWS rec
ord as was consistent with previous en-
gagements, but paid no attention to the
speeches. On the 9th I telegraphed the
attorney general to come to Beverly
in order that l might consult him in
respect to the case. He arrived there
Saturday afternoon, September II. and
pursuant to the appointment made by
telephone, he came to my house early
on Sunday morning, September II. He
then delivered to me the draft opinion
prepared by Mr.. Lawler and said that
he had had an opportunity on coming
from New York to read the answers Of
Mr.. Ballinger and others. / then said 10
him that 1 had made up my mind as to
NV conclusions and had drafted part OF
my opinion, but that 1 wished him TO
examine the full record before I stated
mine. He took the whole record away.
CUT OUT CRITICISM.
During the day I examined the draft
oninion of Mr.. LAWYER, but It's 30 pages

which I wished it stated. 1t contained
references to the evidence which were
useful but its criticism Of Mr.. Pincnot

As Others See Them

Dear Miss Thomas;
I want to say a little about how moth
ers ought to do. Just come up to the
truth. did you ever go to spend the day
with your neighbor women and about the
time you got in TO the door she would
begin to make excuses about the way
the house was and the way her chill
dren are?
This is what she will say: Come in

/ just can't keep things clean. IL don't
do any good to clean up"
That is all a mistake. She may clean
up but she fails to do something. either
in cleaning up or in making her chill
dren mind her.
I have heard mothers say they couldn't
keep their children clean. I will be plain
about it, let it offend who it may. but
there is no one to sc offended unless
they are guilty. They may try to keep
their children clean but not in the right
way They may dress them many times
