AS TOLD TO
HuSb SfQ|lert0n
Second Baseman Cincinnati Reds and
Who Is Regarded Among Players
as One of the Cleverest and
Brainiest Men In Baseball.
BY "DIck" EGAN.

The greatest play ever saw hap
pened so recently that lot of the
fans ought to remember it. They
never would forget 1t If they appre-
ciated how wonderful 1t was. think
they did at the time, for the play set
the crowd wild.
Hoblitzell. our first baseman, made
the play. 1t was in the last series
against Chicago's Cubs on the Gin
cinnati grounds in 1908, when they
were fighting for the pennant with
New York and Pittsburg, and we were
out of the race. Most of us wanted
either Chicago or Pittsburg to win,
but then we were out to win for our
selves, although games didn't do us
much good at that stage of the pro-
ceedings. One of the smallest crowds
of the year saw that game, as Gin
cinnati wasn't interested In Chicago,
and perhaps that is why so few recall
the play.
The game was close and hard fought
all the way, although later we broke
away and won 1t in the last inning.
The Cubs were leading us and seemed
to be making runs as they pleased.
In the seventh inning they had men
on first and third with Chance at the
bat and no one out, when Chance hit
one of the hardest bounding drives l
ever saw in my life. That ball was
whistling there 1t goes" as 1t took
two hops down the line and started
onto foul ground, just grazing the cor.
ner Of the first bag. 1t looked
triple or home run and the finishing
touch of the game. Hobby was play
ing little deep. He saw that ball
going and took running dive out
across the line, stuck out one hand,
and as he slid on his side he grabbed
the ball with his outstretched hands
and plowed a furrow ten feet onto
foul ground with his body. It was so
rapidly done that neither the pitcher
nor myself had started for first, and
we both covered as fast as possible.
Still / couldn't reach It, Hobby saw
Chance probably would beat us both,
and half rising to his feet he dived
head first at the bag and touched 1t
with his hand just foot ahead Of

GAN ANTONIO, TEx.--A Georgia
- court may decide, as one did the
other day, that poor. henpecked man
ia the head Of the family and stand
for that old custom Of woman obeying
in all things. That may be true in
Georgia, where the sweet potato and
the goober pea lead the procession
and the blind tiger" has lair in ev-
cry jungle. but 1t Is different in Texas.
A Texas court might hold that man
is the head Of the family, but no court
on earth could clinch such decision.
In Texas women have done almost
everything In the catalogue of COM
mercial possibilities. In number Of
instances women own large ranches
and have operated them successfully
for years. Women In this state lead
the country In dairying. In number
Of instances women carry the mail on
rural routes and half-dozen or more
Of them have made the record OF not

Gotham Girl Operates on Her Pet Dog

she ate cuff link. These did not
seem to interfere with her enjoyment
of life Next she tried several pins
and needles, and these upset her for
few days.
Quite awhile ago, Miss Barnes says,
she noticed one day that Gypsy kept
her head projected straight In front
Of her. She seemed to be unable to
move 1t, and when 1t was turned for
chilly the dog whined with the pain.
A veterinary diagnosed the trouble as
acute rheumatism and left remedies,
but the dog appeared to grow worse.
Then swelling started on the dogs
left side. Recently while examining
this swelling, Miss Barnes felt a sharp
point. She surmised that Gypsy's
trouble was due to foraging In
her darning basket. She brought
home hypodermic syringe some co.
caine and pair of artery TO, ceps.
Gypsys faith in her mistress was so
great that she did not make move
while the hypodermic was being in
serted. Then Miss Barnes seized the
sharp point with her forceps.
AT the most | expected to get a
darning needle" said Miss Barnes,
