CHANCETO RETURN
Peerless Leader That Was
Would Work for Evers.
Hopes Johnny Has All Kinds
of Success.

Chicago. Oct. 24.-AmOng those who
received the tidings of Evers' appoint
ment to lead the cubs was Frank
Leroy Chance, who is rather famous
in baseball himself. The exp. L.
smiled happily, said he was glad he
was out of the running, and made the
startling announcement that if Mr..
Murphy should offer him a regula
PLAYERS contract he would sign it and
come back to try for a place on the
West Side infield.
ct don't care what money he offers
me-" said Chance, Il Will return 10
Chicago and try to make good for any
manager. Just let Murphy send me a
contract: that's all I ask. To hold me
he must send me one before the first
of March. If he wants to give me
$1,000 a season, III play for that l
promise you that, and l never yet Went
back on a promise. I'd like to have
my release. but I think I'd have lots
of fun as a private in the Cub ranks
I'm glad Evers is going to have the
lob mean the money that goes with
it. I'll play for him gladly if Murphy
will give me the opportunity.
He'll Play for Evers.
81 wish JOHNNY all the success in the
world. 1 couldn't lift the Cubs above
fifth place in 1912. and I don't think
doubtedIy be a clever and competent
manager but he is going to be up
against it from the start. 1 want
E,vers to finish high up in the race. L
would give anything to see him win
the pennant. because my heart is still
with the cubs. But John has a hard
row to hoe and he'll realize it soon
enough.
and I are the best of friends. and, as
I said before. I hope he makes good.
If he wants me as ball player. I'll
come back"
When Mr.. Murphy practically gave
Joe Tinker his release day before yes
terday it was the universal belief that
Evers would be his selection for man
ger. Tinker and Evers have played
together so long that it would be i'm
possible for one to give his best SER
vices to the other as boss.
Evers has been with the Cubs nine
years. He was signed during the regime
of Frank Selee. He first impressed by
his ability as shortshop. He made
good from the jump when he was given
the job of regular second baSeman. He
has always been a close student of
baseball and knows the rules perhaps
better than any other ball player. He
has been quick to take adVan tage of
opponents mistakes.
John is not popular with umpires. He
has been put out of the game and sus-
pended times without number. He in
tends to try to hold his tongue in check
when he is in command Possibly the
umpires will give him more leeway
with added authority.
Working together. Evers and Tinker
have set high standard of play around
second base. AS one of the Cubs puts
it, they have o. iginated more real de-
fensive baseball than any other ten in
felders in the game"
1t is impossible to state at this time
who will play short to Johns second
base. If Tinker goes to Cincinnati the
NIB mill
either Eddie Grant or Esmond. Both
are good ball players, but it may take
either quite a while to accustom him
self to new surroundings

PAY TAXES SOON.
County Treasurer VIII Accept Pay
ments After November 1.

Friday, November 1, a week from
tomorrow, if you have any ambitions
toward paying your taxes for the cur
rent year without waiting in a long
line outside the treasurer's door while
somebody else is being waited upon,
you may be accommodated. Friday
morning at o'clock the books will be
opened for the payment of taxes, and
Treasurer Weightnaan is hoping, very
sincerely, that there will be a crowd
to greet him, not only that morning
but every other morning until the time
limit expires on the first half of the
tax, December 20.
Year after year the books are OPP
ened November 1, and a small amount
of tax is collected. Year after year
from November l until the first week
in December the treasurer and his
deputies spend at least part of their
time wondering how taxpayers might
be persuaded to look after their own
to the office early in the season. After
that, from about December 5 to the
end of the time,-nOne of the treasur-
er's corps of helpers have time to think
about anything except the immense
rush of business in the Office.
Suppose you break a record this
year and pay your taxes early" is
Weightman'S advice. You will be
comforting a decided favor on the
treasurer, and will be comforting an
equal favor on yourself by avoiding the
r.Sh.
Notices to all those who furnish
lists of property owned by them are
being sent out from the office as fast
as possible. If convenient those who
receive these notices may pin check
to them and return them. thus avoid
ing the necessity of call at the Of
fee.
But whatever you do, pay m ear
ly. 1t costs no more then than later
when you may be the end of a line
that reaches clear outside the court
house door

CareIessness Lost Finger and Lawsuit
for John Sellers.

Carelessness on the part of John Sellers
was ascribed by the jury to be the prin-
cipal reason why Sellers lost a finger
while operating saw for n. E. Keller,

was contained in answers to special ques-
tons returned with a verdict for the
defendant in the case of Sellers against

of the district court
Sellrs said his entire left hand had been
damaged by the accident, the end of his
middle finger having been cut off and
two other fingers on his hand having
been stiffened a result The jury de-
clared that the accident was due to
Sellers carelessness, and that additional
precautions against accidents could not
