worried greatly as to what the future

The wife had a distant cousin, Pig
Chief Bender, the noted twirler of the
world champions, the Philadelphia
Athletics, and she decided to confide
her troubles to him. She figured that
a man who could pitch three out of
the six past seasons games against
the Giants, win two of them and lost
the third by fluke. must be resource
full enough to help her. She judged
correctly. and her appeal was not in
vain.
To the concelted counter jumper

by Connie Mack, explaining that his
fame had reached Philadelphia and

beat Mathewson), Morgan, the won

champion how to play baseball.

LAST FLIGHT
BY NELSON To
OCCUR TODAY
DARING AVIATOR MADE TWO
BRILLIANT FLIGHTS YESTER-
DAY AND TODAY HIS ENGAGE
MENT IN PENSACOLA ENDS.

Aviator N. J. Nelson, of the Mills's
aviators. gave second exhibition of
flying at Palmetto Beach yesterday to
quite a number of school children and
grown-ups. just like his first, it was
successful in every detail and afforded
the spectators a sight long to be re-
membered.
Today is to be Pensacola's last op-
portunity to witness this most re-
markable of modern inventions. 1t
goes without question that the aero
plane Is the greatest thrill producer
the world has yet known. To think
that but a few years ago a person
would have laughed and scoffed at
even the very suggestion of a man
flying through the air at the rate of,
say fifty to sixty miles an hour, with
out any support. On both of his ex-
hibitions Mr.. Nelson made many dar-
ing dips, and demonstrated the posi-
bilities of the aeroplane at every
angle.
Aviator Nelson has been flying for
two years, and has been conceded
by the majority of aeronautic critics
throughout the country to be one of
AI.4ericas most skillful aviators. He
flies about much like a buzzard would
do, glides, scars and vol-planes, as
if he were a bird. Everything seems
to be at the finger tips of this mod
ern manbird. He has made several
successful flights throughout the
United States. He is one of the star
birdmen of the Mills's aviators, and
the Mills Company have under con-
tract some of Americas greatest avia-
tors. Both ]. r. and @. p. Mills are
aviators of no mean ability. This is
Nelson's last engagement in the United
States prior to his tour of the world.

Mr.. Nelson made the following re-

muneration in AVIATION for men who

science. To a man who win devote

plane, there is a fortune. To think
that but a few years ago that Glen
Curtis was a motorcycle racer and the

The following is the story:
little frog who splashes into a tiny
puddle sometimes thinks he has
created a commotion In the Atlantic
Ocean. A young clerk in small town
was like the little frog, and local
triumphs on an amateur baseball team
convinced him that he was really a
wonderful PLAYER, and far superior to
the men in the big leagues.
Glory come to him, that is to say,
his name was household word, in the
small village where he lived. but he
got no money for it. More than that,
he neglected his regular work in a
store; and was in danger of being dis
charged. For he thought baseball,
drank baseball and dreamed baseball.

man can eventually conquer the air.
I'm the manufacturing of aero
planes" continued Mr.. Nelson, there
is room for great many more manu-
facturers in this county; in Europe one
firm alone profits from the sale of
their aeroplanes an amount of ap-
proXimately four million dollars, and
think that within the next few
years a great many automobile con-
Germs will take up the manufacturing
of the aeroplane. What the modern
heavier-than machine stands in
most need of is a good motor, and a
lot of money could be acquired If
somebody would make a strong and
durable motor"
Nelson's first fight is to be made
about $3.50 p. m. and it is expected
that he will give the spectators as
many thrills as he has on his previous
flights at Palmetto Beach. No one
should miss this spectacle, as it is a
sight long to be remembered.

GIVES UP BATTLE
With SNOWDRIFTS
Western Pacific Orders Trains
TO Return to Frisco

Sacramento, Cal, Jan. 16.-With
hundreds of men battling with the
snow checked passages of the Sierras
In an effort to keep the railroad lines
clear and bring relief to the stalled
overland passenger and mail trains all
the resources of the Southern Pacific
and Western Pacific companies are be-
ing brought to bear in fighting the
worst snow storm in the mountain
districts in the last twenty years.
All east and westbound trains are
moving on the Southern Pacific tracks
through the Sierras and the snow
sheds, which were damaged by the
heavy fall of snow the last two days,
had been temporarily repaired.
Realizing the impossibility of fore
ing a passage through snowdrifts of
six and eight feet depth the Western
Pacific railroad officials ordered its
stalled eastbound overland trains at
Belden and Oroville to return to San
Francisco and annulled the overland
at San Francisco, which was ready to
depart for the East.
