DEATH OF CLARENCE KEY
AT CONFEDERATE HOME
Veteran of Civil War and Grandson
of Man Who Wrote "Star
Spangled Banner"

BALTIMORE, August 15-After a life
which brought him in touch with the ut
termost parts of the earth, coming in con-
tact for many years with some of the
most astute diplomats of the old and
new world, Mr.. Clarence Key. grandson
Of Francis Scott Key, author of The
Star Spangled Banner" died at the Con-
federate Soldiers Home. Pikesville, Sun
day after lingering Illness.
He had lived at the home since 1909
having been in poor health all that time
although 1t was expected that he would
live several years longer.
Born in Maryland seventy-five years
ago, Mr.. Key was a son of John r. Key.
He went to Cuba when very young. and
at the outbreak of the civil war made
several attempts to get back to this
Mexico, when he at once crossed the bQr-
der into Texas and enlisted in the I'd
Texas Cavalry under the Confederate
flag.
Four Years of Service.
Later he Joined the o6th Texas Cav
airy. his total service extending over four
years. The battles in which he partic-
ipated were all fought in the southwest
and he often regretted the fact that he
was unable TO participate in the fighting
In Virginia, where his comrades from
Maryland showed such conspicuous brav-
cry.
After the war Mr. Key. profiting by his
knowledge of Spanish gained in Cuba,
went to Mexico City, where he became Of
fetal interpreter for the American embas-
sy. He was SO proficient that his services
were sought by Sir Chentung LANG
Chang. Chinese minister to the United
States and Mexico. jointly, for many
years. Mr.. Key accepted a place in the
embassy in Mexico City. taking the title
filled with much credit until two years
ago, when he was obliged to resign on

what Alexander has accomplished to date.
Strong and Enduring.
Chalmers gives the impression that he
is one Of those big broad-shouldered boys,
durance He does not seem to be a
pitcher Of much finesse. He uses spit
ball, which is against him, for sooner or
later the spit ball will kill the best
pitcher in the business. One has but to
look them over and see what has become
of the spit ball pitchers who were IA
nous
The man who uses a delivery Of that
type simply pulls his arm out Of joint
by slow degrees The greatest pitchers
in the professional ranks never have been
spit ball pitchers, and never will be, for
the very good reason that there is scarce
ly spit ball pitcher who is pitcher Of
good control. The nearest to come to it
is Walsh Of Chicago, and there are times
when he can barely keep the ball within
speaking distance Of the plate. The above
statement does not mean to imply that
there are not any good spit ball pitchers.
as a statement of that character would
be absurd. There are good ones, but they
don't last.
1t has been tn aim Of McGraw to OBJ
tain two or three young pitchers of the
Chalmers type-that is, Of his type phys
ically-but he is not overZealous to get
spit ball pitchers. He has had plenty of
men offered to him. but for reasons of
his own has declined them. and his judg-
ment is borne out by the fact that the
men who were offered never have
amounted to much more than one good
flash
Tesreau Is Improving.
He sent one big fellow to take a season
of Eastern League experience. He is
Tesreau, who is now with the Toronto
club, and everybody who has seen him
pitch Is positive that he will do we'll in
the major leagues in another year. He
may start out next season with the reg
ulars. 1t will depend largely on the
showing which he makes in the spring.
ShontZ has done fairly we'll of late in
Newark, and begins to look more a
pitcher than he ever did.
Ferrell, who was picked up down in the
Carolinas. and who has never been north
is another of the kind which McGraw
likes SO far as size goes. His knowledge
of major league base ball is nil, and
whether he will make the show next
spring is a question.

NEW YORK. August 15.--When Chal-
mers pitched against the Giants in the
fall of 1910. and won a game. in which he
did some very good work. 1t was sug-
gested in the Evening Telegram that the
Philadelphia base ball club had picked
up a player who looked as If he would
become one Of the most valuable on the
pitching staff OF the team.
The wonderful success and good start
Of Alexander this year overshadowed any
good work that Chalmers might have
done, and, more than that. Chalmers was a
little slow in rounding to his best con-
dition.
Recently he has been pegging along at
something like his normal gait. and the
game which he pitched against New
York last Saturday gives some idea OF
his ability in the box.
In the long run 1t may prove that, Chal-
mers will last longer in major league
company than some of his promising RI
walls in the Philadelphia club. although
experienced managers are inclined to be-
lieve that his style of delivery Is against
have to succumb to a motion which de-
mands too much of his arm. While he
lasts, however, he may be of great
deal OF value.
Good Pitching Has Helped.
Various reasons have been ascribed for
the success OF the Phillies this year. but
there Is none which is equal to the fact
that the Philadelphia management was
more fortunate than most Of its rivals in
picking up excellent young pitching talent.
Chalmers has been sought by other
clubs than Philadelphia. but one of those
agreements which twist and intertwist in
organized base ball until its own friends
are almost unable to follow the skein
made it impossible for any other club ex-
| cept Philadelphia to obtain his services.
Securing Alexander was purely acci-
dental. Philadelphia went after him on
| the draft basis along with Detroit. When
it came to drawing lots Detroit lost. Then
Philadelphia was not so certain that Alex
| ander would be successful At least Doom
| was not. so the story goes. When 1t came
| time to send some of the young players
| back to the minor leagues Alexander was
| slated to go, but DOOM was persuaded by
| none other than Pat Moran. the Phila-
delphia catcher. to hang on to him. show
| ing that DOOM was sensible enough to
| listen to good advice, and more than that.

Beneath the starlit skies.

Blend in dark.ing gray.

The cold night wind in biting

Blows out across the shifting sand,
Sweeps through the pungent sage.

Low in the eastern sky,

Touched BY an artists hand,
Assumes it's soothing shade of blue

Possession OF Fruit Store
And Was Removing Goods
When He Was Arrested For
Grand Larceny
Frank George Taken Into
Custody By Constable
And Must Answer To A
Serious Charge
An Exciting Scene In A
South Main St. Store

Frank George was arrested Friday
Squire Harter's court on charge of
grand larceny, the warrant being
sworn out before Justice Harter by
Alex Chrisos.
Chrisos alleges that several months
ago he purchased the fruit stand, pop
factory and ice cream parlor on
South Main street, from George and
that he gave in partial payment for
the property, notes secured by chat
tel mortgage, $3.50 of which he has
not yet paid as the notes will not
come due until June and July, 1911.
In the meantime, a bill of $2S1. .05
against Frank George, was received
from John Amicon, Bro. & Co., but
was not, at the time, paid by George.
George moved to Wooster, o., where
he has been in business, but on
Thursday in the absence of Chrisos
from his store, which he recently pur-
chased from George, the latter enter
ed the store stating to the clerk that
he was again proprietor and that he
had come to move the goods. He set
to work Immediately and began to
carry the stock out of the back door,
where it was loaded into wagons and
hauled away. The next step taken
by George was to go to an attorney in
this city and give up the notes, which
he held against Chrisos, with the re-
mark that he had made an agreement
with Chrisos that he was to give up
the notes against him and in return
for the stock of goods in the store.
The move was Immediately frustrat-
ed by the attorney who said that he
knew nothing whatever about the
case and that he did not desire to
have anything to do with 1t as it
stood. This move, Chrisos alleges,
was made in order to evade the pay
ment of the debt of $2S105, for
George knew that when the bill was
received Chrisos was instructed to
withhold the $3.50 that he still owed
George In order that it might be paid
on the bill instead of being paid to
him.
