said that the campaign should not
end al this time. He said that the
Delaware Hospital would do the most
good with the support Of the whole
people He dwclt on some alleged
wrongs nc said he had heard existed
IN the hospital and said that II such
wrongs did exist IL was because the
citizcns of the city had not taken the
interest In the institution they should.
such wrongs II they exist, he said,
should be rightcd. He congratulated
the teams and committees for the
magnificent work they had done ana
said whcu nc hrst came here he did
not believe the sum could be raised
but when he later learned that such
men as William p. Bancroft and
George A. Elliott we're back of the
movement he said he was no longer in
doubt as to the success of the cam
paign.
Mr. Honey said he had never been
to any city working i'm a similar cam
paign where the wealthy men had con-
tributed as they had here. He did
not fail to laud those who had given
$50 and 500 and much less, as they
had given to the extent of their
ability.
Mr. Bancroft was called upon fol
a few words. and he referred to q
man seated near him. saying that
one of the contributions that affected
him most WAS the 81 900 pledged bs
I the colored people Of the city. Mr.
Bancroft referred TO tho donation o
/ So 900 by Miss Carrie A. Nutter
/ lindergariner at Rockford. The lat
tier was a patient at the Delaware
Hospital seven years ago, and out o
gratitude for what had been done fol
/ her at the hospital. she had worked
land saved intending ono day 10 en-
dow bed i'm tho hospital When the
present campaign started her savings
had reached $4,000. and this she turn
ed over to the hospital.
Mr Bancroft said that he was sorr,
that the annual subscriptions TO the
hospital were not greater, as mucl
more could be accomplished through
a larger membership.
At this junclure Mr. ropkis an
nounced that he wanted TO becomi
q member OF the hospital, and tender

he would become an annual contrihu

became its president the endowmen

sportsman. His team was always
fighting for the rag mt he never took
advantage OF another magnate or

a baseball owner and was loved by
his players and admired by the fans

league cities. lie paid his players
the highest salaries possible. enter

they would pull of any sensational
plays or keep up n winning streak.

or ten spot in their pay NJ the n
OF h month. For his Kindness. his
players at all times exerted them
selves TO the limit. They kept in con.
dition and never quit" until the last
ball crossed the plate.
Mr.. Narnell has purchased n half
