ally saw one of our heiresses married
to member of the British aristoc-
racy. Since that time marriages Of
English noblemen have largely been
under two conditions. Those who
have been interested in keeping up
their family traditions have continued
TO come to the American market for
wives. Those interested In making
ducks and brakes of their family for
tunes have selected their partners
from those on the stage, principally
OF the London music halls. The fol-
lowing story illustrates what serious
complications are now resultant from
these unequal marriages:
Miss Mildred Strang, an American,

season. Strang was not her real
name. Her mother bad been divorced
from her father ana resumed her
maiden name. This resulted I'm the
daughter being similarly known. The
separation between the parents had
occurred a few months before Mildred
was born. and her fathers name was
never mentioned to her. Indeed. when
she went abroad he had so long ago
lost all connection with his wife that
very few persons knew anything
about him or what had become OF
him.
Miss Strang. Notwithstanding that
there was a cloud overhanging her on
her fathers account, was introduced
into the first circles OF London society.

achievements of the farmers boy,

gled and so did Mcbride, who scored
Elberfeld. Conroy walked, but Street
hoisted, both these young men facing
Roy Mitchell, successor to Nelson. John
sons roller to third was a hit, scoring
Gessler. Mcbride went in on Milan's
safe bunt to Mitchell. Conroy and John
son scored when Schaefer hammered 4
real. union-made single to left. Five
runs of the easiest kind.
Elberfeld's Trip Around.
Elberfeld doubled to left in the fourth,
advanced on an out. and went in on a
wild pitch. "Dode'' Criss was working
then, and he got away with It until the
eighth, when they fell on him, too.
Street singled to center, to be forced
by Johnson. Milan was hit on the shirt
by a wild one and Schaefer filled the
sacks by beating out a slow one to Aus
tin. Red" Walker, our blushing debu-
tante, was too nervous and whiffed- Ell
berfeld wasn't a bit nervous, though,
and cracked out a hard one past third,
scoring johnson and Milan. Gessler's
solid punch to the fence surrounding the
bull in right scored Schaefer and the
Kidlets. Total, four runs for this in
ming, thirteen in all.
johnson was in form, that's all. He
went along under wraps, too, but the
poor visitors never had a chance. Their
hits came in alone and unattended and
were quietly sufied.
Here's the tabulation; take a look:

1t may not happen again for years, the

At that time the score was to 0. and
the visitors had lost all interest in the
game and the services Of Walter john

that's coming later. Gessler walked, to
be forced by Mcbride. Acting Mana
ger George then started for second as
Conroy sent a fly up to Hogan. Hogan
took 1t and Mcbride kept right on
going for his glove in the short field.
Hogan threw the ball in aimlessly.
The Cue For Comedy.
The Nationals then started to take
the field. Walter johnson got the ball
and was warming up with Jack Lelivelt.
The inielders were IN their places and
the outfelders almost ready for work
when the loud calls from the stand
woke UP Schaefer, who shouted to Nc

second, touched it, and started. for
third. Cobwebs were in his belfry.

been seen before in this league over
such a situation. Rowan ran over to
johnson, took the ball from his hand
and tossed it to Wallace at second. Nc
Bride had been there, however, and SO
the Browns manager threw to Rowan,
doubling up Mcbride at first. The Ma
tionals' shortstop was nearing home
when he was declared out.
Funny? Should say 1t was. Both
teams were lost and WOODY, crying for
help. Egan and Sheridan needed palm

Was Just a Slaughter.
The game? There wasn't any; It was
a slaughter, with the Nationals on the
right end for once. They grabbed three
runs in the first. Laporte dropped Mi

hunted safely. On Red Walker $
drive over Nelson's head, Milan scored.
Nelson took Elberfeld's slap and got
Schaefer loafing on the way to third.
Walker and the Kidlets hiked II across
the pan when Doc Gessler walloped the
ball to the centerfleld fence for three
corners. Count-three runs.
