GIANTS MUST PAY
 THEIR OWN DEBTS

Cincinnati. December 23.-The na- tional baseball commission in find ing handed down today refused to re- imburse the New York National leaguc club for money refunded by the club to patrons for tickets that did not reach thom through the mail during the last worlds series or through ! misdirection of some kind.
 The commission held that inasmuch as the New York club had full charge of the sale of tickets 1t must stand for any expense incurred in the satis- lying of It's patrons. Three hundred and sixty-four dollars and fifty cents was asked for.
 Included in this was a daim of S13.50 for five patrons each df whom held d numbered ticket for which there was not a corresponding seat The commission agreed to allow this small claim, however, and will pay 1t out of it's general fund rather than as sess all of the players and clubs that profited by the series.
 In another case $500, the last h. stalment from the Pittsburg club fo. Player Murphy, was turned over to tho national association with directions to pay to whom 1t belonge

of 12 months in the city prison, instead oi 90 days, a power which has been given td the recorders in the cities of Birmingham and Richmond, I will guarantee absolute ly to break up blind tigers in Atlanta With this power l assure the people oi Atlanta that within a short time blind tigers will be as scarce here as hens teeth. I mean every word I say"
 With these words Recorder Broyles told exactly what he could accomplish witt the increase in power in dealing with ths sale of whisky in this city.
 It is the general opinion that If council will make the change Broyles will be eas. fly able to make his promise good. It i, pointed out that at present the blind tiger who is making anywhere from s10 to SEQ oi $30 a day selling booze, without paying license. does not especially mind fint of $10O in the police court or even a B days sentence to the stockade. At the end of that time he is out again and ready for business.
 However, if they knew they were going to get a steady diet and Imprisonment fol a year 1t is believed that they would think two or three times before they fin ally tried the sale of whisky.
 Recorder Broyles has shown himself ar unrelenting foe of the blind tiger. and by penalty after penalty, always the limil of the law, he has done much to lesser the sale in Atlanta. The police have also done their share by carefully watching the express office. As tiger after tiger claimed his whisky, generally consigned to some bogus club, arrest after ares has been made and conviction after con viction has followed.

SUCCESSOR NAMED
 FOR IDA LEWIS
Noted Lighthouse Keeper Rescued Numerous Pe0-
 nle From Death

Washington, December 23-(Snecal.)-- Evard Jansen has been promoted to be keeper of the Lime Rock light station, Rhode Island. in place of Ida Wilson Lewis, popularly called "the Grace Dar- ling of America,f' whose death October 2t, last, closed more than 30 years continuous service filled with heroic deeds and crowned with universal fame.
 Immediately following her death her son, Rudolf Lewis was temporarily given the post until an appointment from the civil service register could be made. A month later Jansen was promoted from the place of first assistant keeper at s4sO per an- mum, Sandy Hook fogbel station, North Hook beacon, New Jersey. His present salary is $516.
 Jansen was originally appointed March 1, 1907, from the civil service register as keeper of the Mussel Bed Shoals light sta ton, Rhode Island. He was transferred December 2l, 1908, to first assistant keep CT Montauk Point light station, New York, next on September 25 1909, to Great Bells light station, New York, and again May 1a, 1910, to his first position.
 Ida Lewis was born in Newport, R. l., in lS42. Her father was appointed in 1854 keeper of Lime Rock light station. Later he became paralyzed and his wife was made keeper of the light. Ida, the eldest of four children. was obliged to row the children to school and the supplies from shore to the lighthouse, which is situated on q ledge of white limestone at the
 outhern entrance of the inner harbor of Newport Thus she became a skillful larswoman She succeeded her mother as keeper in 1879. Her first rescue was in September, 1854, when she was but I, years old, and four young men were in- debted to her for their lives. The records of the lighthouse bureau, department Of Commerce and labor show that at i've different times subsequently, between 1868 and 1881, she saved nine other men, each time imperiling her own life. It is be- leved by Lighthouse Commissioner Put nam that there are many more such in- stances which do not appear in the or ficial record. Medals, money. legislative assembly resolutions, and finally a gold life saving medal by Congress, were at various times given her In recognition or her heroic service She married at 3o MT Wilson. but they separated some years afterward and from that time she preferred to be known as Mrs. Ida Will son Lewis, by which name she was borne on the rolls of the lighthouse service until her death.
 Mrs. Lewis is usually referred to as the Grace Darling of America. but what Mrs Lewis did really required far greater personal courage and skill than was shown by the English heroine. Grace Darling assisted her father in one rescue only, the saving of nine persons who were left on wreck upon the subsistence of gale on the coast of Northumberland, England, September I, 1888 Mrs. Lewis record is far greater and in all but two of her rescues she was wholly unasssted.

Manchester Oct 24.--Commentins
upon a recent article by II. X. Wright,
eX-state dairy commissioner of Iowa,
S. Is. Shilling, formerly of Manchester
and now president Of the Chicago
Dairy Produce. a leading publication
for the dairy industry. SAYS
In an almost unmarked grave. lies
the body Of the man who gave to the
west if not to the world. the present
creamery system; and like all pioneers
in movements of this kind. he died not
approaching the greatness of the worh
he wrought.
Little did John Stewart think when
he built the little creamery at Spring
Branch. three miles east nt Manchester.
he WAS building the foundati ton for ii
business that in time would prove tn"
greatest wealth producing industry in
the field OF agriculture. Little did he
think of the. many and varied kinds or
the same institution which would
spring UP and fight for supremacy over
one another. Little did he or the farm
ers in that locality think that after
thirty years creamery the same
site would be in operation and the milk
furnished by the sons of the fathers
wro furnished milk for the first cream
cry in America thirty years ago.
The first buttermaker who ever
worked in creamery still lives there
In Manchester, and altho an old man
now, still remembers the establishing
Of this tirstc reamery.
The aid of some historian should
be secured in compiling all the data
possible upon the history of the cream
cry, and compile it in a book for the
benefit of future generations The his
tory of the early day creamery Will
some day make interesting reading
