Up in Macon they have been writing
that Ed Schultze would probably be
the pitcher to go when Scanlon report
ed to the club. Strange to say, Sean
lon was recently given a good trim
ming by Augusta and Ed lSchultze had
to go to his assistance and the man
who is slated for can" pitched far
better ball than the man who was ex-
pected to take his job away from him
1t is believed that if Schultz is re-
leased by the Macon management the
fans of that city will make an awful
"holler" and rightfully so.
Unofficial reports from Albany are to
the effect that Matthews is going to re-
lease Pitcher Taylor, who has pitched
consistent ball for the Babies all seas
on. Matthews is standing by his for
mer pals of the Southern League and
there isn't much of chance for the
youngsters on the Albany team. How
ever, if the Albany sports are game
enough to pay for the goods they are
entitled to the best that is to be had

Johnny Evers being away from the

ness in Troy, n Y, to pay and again
he lost considerable money in the shoe
business in Cincinnati After Satur-
days game in Chicago, he having been
put out of the game for kicking, he
tainted in the club house and since
that time has been almost a nervous
wreck The doctors say he needs q
rest and he will probably be out of the

JACK WILLIAMS IS A
POPULAR CANDIDATE

1t is quite evident that the Globe
Silver Rcit nGs a high opinion OF the
character and ability of Jack Williams,
he republican candidate for congress.
The following interesting sketch of his
career IN Arizona is taken from the
columns of that paper:
The campaign oc John s. Williams.
republican. candidate for congress. is
meeting with favor wherever he goes
Major Carl Hayden of the Arizona
National Guard. Williams democratic
opponent, seems to be depending for
his. vote upon the strength of the mill
tary organization of which he is the
head
While Jack has no military organi-
..ation to depend upon in this campaign
la mas what is a great deal 1iSre Ell
ficient, those qualities that go to make
big craftsmanship
Coming to Arizona as a prOspector,
he spent the first years of his residence
at Benson and in the surrounding
mountains. leading the life of pros
pector. He had received a legal educa-
ton. but had not practiced his profes
sion in Arizona because of his enjoy
ment of the free life in the hills.
"One day he came to town dressed in
the flannel shirt and khaki trousers
of the prospector and learned that
friend was engaged in personal in
jury suit against a large corporation
The man had no money, no friends and
no attorney. and Jack, upon learnig
of his friends plight, volunteered his
services.
No one knew Of Jacks legal ability
and when he appeared before the court
i'm his uncouth garb. everyone looked al
him askance. But when he began his
plea before the jury, with the elo-
quence that later made him famous
throughout that section of Arizona
pleading the justice of the cause of his
client. he won a victory that marks an
epoch in the practice of the bar.
He then had no difficulty in secur-
ing clients and opened an office in
Tombstone, the county seat Of Cochise
county.
Three years ago he was elected
attorney and his success as such led to
his present nomination"

FANCY DRESS COSTUMES.

During the season. in Paris the So

fast and furious pace. one Of the
most successful of the many feteS was
a fancy dress ball. at which all the
guests were invited TO attend clothed
i'm the costume Of a certain period"
Needless to say, the scheme was car
ried out to the letter.
There they were. in every costume
imaginable. from the earliest known
period down To the present day.
The general effect was fairy like. so
elegant and beautiful were the cos
tunes
Among the women the Louis XVI

The clou Of the evening was repre-
scented by the Ottoman embassy visit

The gorgeous costumes of Turkish
princes and potentates. preceded by
slaves bearing trays of rare fruits and
flowers. while other slaves waved long

Once Soldier of the Queen, He is
Proud of His FraternaI
Regimentss.

! Among the men from Anahem.
Cal, vino are here in the interest
of the Knights of Pythias lodge the
next few days is a dapper little man
in the seventies. He will be intro
| duced To all who meet him as Col.
Alex y. Henry, the mascot of the
company. Perhaps they will go away
/ thinking he is the mascot of the
company, though there is suspicion
in their minds that he stands for
more than a mascot. The suspicion is
based upon the quick military move
ments of the little man. the three
clippings of ribbon which he wears
! on his left breast and upon the mys-
FERROUS looking scar which brings out
the chiseled features of a distinguish
ed face. And thereby hangs the
tale
Both the scar and the ribbons were
got over half a century ago i'm for
eign land, in a war now familiar
to every school boy-the famous
Crimean war of 1S54-1S56 Col Henry
is one of the few if not the only
man living on the western coast who
took part in that famous war so
many years ago. The colonel has
some stirring experiences To recall.
He served throughout the war. and
was i'm the hospitals five times with
injuries. He was a young man then.
he is nearly eighty now. but the scars
still show where the bullets went
and where the broad path of the
sabre nearly cleft a part of the hero
i'm two. He was with Admiral Lyons
in wooden ship on the Black sea-
and under Admiral Napier on the
Baltic and he followed the English
colors on land with the famous Black
Watch regiment of infantry.
Colonel Henry is one Of the few
living witnesses of the famous
Charge of the Light Brigade" NO
one knows who gave the order for
that grand charge, and no one will
ever know now" he said. Cannon
to right Of them, cannon to left of
them. an. il was a splendid sight" and
the Coloners eyes flashed as he said
it. Since that time the Colonel has
his military aspirations. |
and shortly after the Civil war moved !
to the United States, and has been
i'm California most of the time since. |
At times the old call to arms al |
most masters him. and during the |
Boer war he proffered his services
to the English government again, |
though then i'm years when other
men are considered old. And now
that he realizes no chance for active
service any more. he has aligned
himself with the uniform rank of
he X. of Ps. and is one of the val
liable promoters Of that order The
Colonel has made the term Mascot
significant one. He is a fund of
on military matters and
hough he doesn't swing his saber
n the ranks any more. he is 'one Of
he powers that be" in the running
# the splendid company from Ana
eim. II
He is a ScOtchman by birth. but
n American by adoption and swears

reatest country on this earth. The
Ii ghland uniform which he wears

rom family to family Of Scotchmen
Or many generations past. though
appears to have come straight from
