Jackson OF Strong Mentality
Despite Lack Of Education

GREENVILLE, S. c., Feb. 19.-That
Joe Jackson Is a greater ball player
than Ty Cobb or any other diamond
celebrity so far produced In his coun-
try Is the unanimous sentiment of
Ioe's personal following about the
manufacturing city of Greenville. s. c.,
Which co munity the untutored pho
nonenon has advertised more probably
than its many manufacturing i~nstitu-
tons. Such, at least. is the local senti-
ment as reported by Thomas A. Miller,
prominent cotton mill man of that
place.
According to Miller, the usual stories
told about jess general characteristics
are in the main true, including his
early and later ~indispos,tion to take
advantage of educational opportunities.
That the former Carolina mill hand is
possessed of much more than average
Intelligence, however, he strongly in
sists. as Witnessed not only by his
grasping all the fine points of the
modern game and making the most re-
markable record in general all-around
play for the time he has been in the
big league than any other player
hitherto, and in the face OF the avowed
effort of opposition players to get
him."
ut is not generally known, states
Miller. that Joe is a very thrifty and
businesslike individual. TIe is now
quite q property-holder in his home
town. where he has purchased a home
for his mother and sister. who con-
tributed to his personal support while
he was seemingly neglecting his work
in the mills in the effort to learn to
