GOT HIS s0BRIQUET EARLY
"Honest John" Kelly Proved His Right
to tho Title Long Before
Manhood.

There have been many stories about
the manner in which Honest John"
Kelly, the ex-umpire, first got his nick
name. Mr.. Kelly himself. according
to New York letter, holds that tt
came to him Naturally, for even as a
small boy the; purity of his soul shone
through his face. 81 think the first
time l was ever called Honest John
was when 1 was quite a syoungster."
said Kelly. "A man engaged as an
ambulatory salesman Of tinware OBJ
served the ingenious countenance l
presented to the world and hailed me.
You look honest, boy" said he. What
might your name be?' john said T.,
quite simply. 'John'-just like that.
Then hold my horse while l go In
the saloon and get a drink said he.
And SO l held his horse while he went
in the saloon and got drink. But
this was on lower Ninth avenue. in
day when the avenues honors went
to the man who could clean the most
cops in a given time. By and by the
gang came along and beheld that
wagon full OF tinware. The peddler
was detained within by a sore thirst,
and they took the tinware. And then
they came back and took the cush-
ions of tho wagon. Eventually. be-
coming daring, they unhitched the
wagon and took it sway. True to my
trust, stood there, holding the horse.
And by and by the peddler came out
of the saloon and sized up the situa-
ton. Well said he warmly. you're

REALLY OPENED THEIR EYES
Parishioner's Remark, However, Left
Young Minister Somewhat In
in the Dark.

Rev. Henry r. Rose in the Newark
Star tells the story of a young min
lister who had recently taken charge
of small parish in Vermont. He
aspired to greater things and large
field, and in the hope that his reputar
tion would travel beyond the limits OF
the village to which he had been sent
he threw into his sermons all tho
force and eloquence at his command.
He was, however. totally unprepared
for what was intended for compli-
ment, but which was put to him In
such way that 1t left him in doubt
as to the real impression he had made
One Sunday morning, after an espe-
cially brilliant effort, he was greeted
by an old lady, who was one Of tho
most faithful attendants at all serv-
ices Approaching the young minister,
she said: "Ah, sir, we do enjoy your
sermons so much they are so in
structive Do you believe it. We never
knew what sin was until you came to
the parish"

John B. Mc.sant and Arc. Hoxsey


John B. Mc!sant and Arc.l Hoxsey,
aviators extraordinary. were killed
Nsaturday Both fell out of the treach-
Eerous air with their machines-neith-
er from a vast height-and Moisant's
remaining minutes of life were so few
as 10 count for naught. Hoxsey was
killed instantly. Moisant met his
death at 9:55 a. m, attempting to
aliaht in a field few miles from
New Orleans, La. Hoxsey who went
into the air early in the afternoon at
Los Angeles, lay at 2:12 p. m,
crushed, lifeless mass in view of the
thousands who were watching the
aviation tournament. Thus the last
days of 1910, in bringing the total num-
her of deaths of those who have
souSht to emulate the birds to thirty
five, capped the list with two of the
MOI illustrious of those airmen who
have been writing the history of avia-
t,onsin the sky of two continents.
