IS NOT REMARKABLE
Daughter of Carrie Nation
Adjudged Insane.
(American News Service)

San Antonio, Tex, Feb. 29.-Mrs.
A. ID. McNabb, daughter of Mrs. Car
rie Nation, was adjudged insane in
the county court here yesterday
During the course of the examination
the fact was brought out that Mrs.
Nation herself is in an institution in
the east taking treatment for mental
trouble, and the physicians stated that
there is apparently strain OF insani-
ty in the family. DR.. O'Farrell of
Richmond. Texas, testified that in his
opinion there was mental unbalance
running through the family. He had
been the family physician OF Mrs. Car
RE Nation and all the relatives for a
number Of years, and this had become
noticeable to him. 1t was DR.. O'Fer-
rell who gave out the information that
Mrs. Nation is under treatment for
mental disturbance. 1t was also
shown that this is not the first time
that Mrs. McNabb has shown signs
of inherent insanity. She was kept
at Austin for time but apparently
recovered and was released. Thous-
ands of people throughout this land,
particularly those in the saloon bus
mess, have had cause to suspect that
Mrs Nation was mentally out Of
poise but until the examination of her
daughter here yesterday the fact that
there was a mental weakness running
through the family had never been
made public by those whose profess
sional experience qualified them to
know whereof they spoke. For num-
Der of years the Nation family has re-
sided at Richmond, Texas, and many
people there have believed that Mrs.
Carrie Nation, the saloon smasher,
was mentally unbalanced.

whitney Didn't Have to Hurry.

travellers with him, unbalanced the
minds of an overflow crowd, picked up
5000, drew a suit of clothes and went
over and sat down in the players pit
without even cracking smile.
Oh, but that was a beauty-that home
run incident. Over the left field fence
and away to the cornields. If there
had been a couple of fences it would
have made no difference. That ball
whistled like a bullet. There was 200
feet pounds of pressure on the rear
side of it. No. Sarah, they haven't
found it. They didn't even look for 1t.
Seven men were set to picking up the
shower Of real currency from the
grandstand. The game was delayed
five minutes.
Can Die Content.
The thousands who saw that game
can say they saw one perfect inning
of baseball-and die. The game was
settled then. The Lincoln bunch got
one in on piece Of forgetfulness. The
game ended 3 to 1.
Jack Fugate was the man on the
hill-and Jack was right. Moore liked
his stuff in the workout and sent him
in. Three-fourths of the great crowd
were steeled to lose. But Fugate pitch
ed q game which could not lose with a
fair brand of support. He allowed sew
en- hits. never more than one in an
inning. And he whitfield six. He walk
ed none-and they formerly said Flu
gate was wild.
Levi Knapp was on the mound for
the Antelopes. He is the man who
trimmed Denver in the Lincoln opener.
One opener is enough for any man. He,
too, pitched ball which could not well
lose an ordinary game of ball. There
was one exception. That was the sixth
session and the one in which Whitney
hit his homer. That made three safe
drives, and Knapp was beaten.
The Home Run Hit.
That perfect inning was a soul stir
ring affair. Hafford drove a single
down the third base line. Rickert pom
The Topeka state journal. [volume] (Topeka, Kansas) 1892-1980, 1911-04-25

down the first base line. Hawkins ran
in to pick up the bunt. Fugate slip
ped cog and forgot to cover the plate.
Cole saw the opening and sped home
with a clear track without even stop
ping at third. The play was neat
piece of base running.
Some nifty fielding and a lot of base
ball luck, saved the Kaws nasty start
in the first inning. Fugate was touched
he hit Gagnier and Cobb sacrificed the
two around. Then he hit Mccormick
and filled the bases with only one
down. Unglaub smashed a hot one 10
Hafford. He felt of it and dropped 1t.
Cole was tearing toward home Half
ford fastened onto the ball and shot 1t
at Kerns, who caught the first two in
nings. Kerns also dropped it but picked
it up in time to force Cole out. The
latter tripped up on Kerns as the
catcher was grabbing for the dropped
ball and went headlong over him.
Butch suffered an injured side.
Knapp's Pitching Saves Links.
8 The Antelopes escaped being scored On
in the very first by good pitching. Half
ford went out but Joe Rickert drew a
pass and stole second. Then Thomson
singled and stole second. There were
pretext to run at the rubber. Whitney
and Hopke both struck out. Then 1t
was, and not in the sixth, when the
stands prayed in vain for a hitter.
The AntelopeS got lone hits in the
first, third, fourth, fifth sixth, seventh
and eighth innings.
The Kaws got lone hits in the first,
fourth, seventh and eighth, and three
in the sixth.
