The Bridgeport evening farmer., 1911-03-24

John Elves. NlIu tlvei-we can hard ly say foursned-in the eighteenth century. was famous mis4r. When he. possessed of million of money. walked the streets of London philan thropic people would sometimes thrust a penny into his hand. so beggarly and poverty stricken was his appearance He would eat food that was in the last stage of putrefaction sooner than throw it away and would ride for miles out of his way sooner than pay a twopenny toll on the turnpike. By an accident in the street he received an injury to both his legs. and doc tor was called in. Elves protested that the expense was quite unneces- sary and that he was not much hurt. So he made an arrangement with the doctor. The doctor was to take one leg and treat as he liked. Elves would take the other and do nothing to 1t And he would bet the doctor the amount of his bill that the untend- ed leg got well first. He used to boast afterward that he beat the doctor by a fortnight

DAN DWELL SNEAKS INTO TOWN, SEES O'ROURKE, AND
 QUIETLY SNEAKS OUT AGAIN

Dan O'Neil. the booh-bah of the Connecticut league sneaked into town yesterday afternoon. closated himself O'Rourke, and as quietly sneaked out again. Wild rumors circulated around , the Atlantic, Joe Bowling started it, that O'Neil was in town and was about to start something. His pres ence was believed to have something to do with the now much aired Hoey ! case. All the ice cream parlors were secured by the busy Scribes, who <, sought an interview with O'Neil, but the latter could not be located. O'Rourke, himself, was equally scar e. Towards whistle hour. o Rourke WAS found in Grants cigar store, bIt O'Neil was not with him. When ask I'd if O'Neil had been in town the Grand Old Man of Baseball replied that he had been, but that was all. Questioned further if it was on the Hoey case he had come here to talk over MT. O'Rourke stated that he "did not care to discuss that matter, and that enough had been sad of it already" And then he walked away.
 Manager McCann, among others, had heard that ONei1 was in town, and awaited in his office a visit from the New Britain magnate. He was not disappointed when Dan did not show
 
 that he would, in view of the transac- tions that transpired at the meeting Monday.
 This Pitcher Bill Crystal whom the Providence and New Haven clubs were angling for, with the former winning out, could have been secured by Man ager McCann two months ago. Crystal wrote to McCann asking for job. but the latter did not answer. McCann is not in need of pitchers, though he says Crystal would make a great man for this league.
 The scenery of the Bridgeport clubs offices was further enhanced yesterday through the receipt of a score of framed pictures of big league players in action. More than half or the num- Der give reproductions of the players in the last worlds series. The photos are the gifts of George Corbett, .one of the owners of the club.
 Among the pictures received, is a. photo of the Jersey City Club, cham pions of the Eastern League in 1903. Manager McCann is among the bunch. Some of the players are still in ac tion, while others are in business. The players include Peter F. Cassidy, now manager of the Wilmington Tri-State r,--I. rr@~--- r ~o~o-~~-~'- q fn~7-oar

The Dialect Was There.

Ex-Governor Fob Taylor of Tennes- see was once entertaining northern guest who was rather skeptical about the prevailing dialect in stories of southern negroes. He thought it over drawn. To diSprove the contention. Mr. Taylor laughingly made a wager with his guest that the northerner would be unable to interpret the lan- guage of the first negro they met. Ac- cordingly they set out and presently came upon a black man basking in- dolently in the sun. Telling his friend to pay close heed. Mir. Taylor stepped up to the negro and demanded sud denly:
 "Weh hep
 The negro blinked his eyes stolidly and then answered in a guttural voice:
 "Wah who o?"-Everybody's

call conditions which existed time of the birth of
Christ and compare them with those existing today they
Will be able trace the causes of the changed conditions

enlightenment and replacing uplcty by frankness and
sincerity cruelty by kindness and considerations The rule
of might has been succeeded BY right Imperfect as
