club having granted him his uncondi-

and creditable exemplar, may be ex-
pected. 1t is a satisfaction to know.
and pleasure to state, that Young will

WANTS WOMEN AS JURORS

PHILADELPHIA, Pa, Sept. 4. -
Mrs Daisy Opie Grace, who recently
was acquitted of shooting her hus-
band in Atlanta, has confirmed tho
published report that she favored
juries of women to try women accus-
ed of crime. When seen at her moth
ers home here she said:
THE idea has appealed to me for a
long time. | believe we would have
more justice if women tried cases in
which women are defendants. When
they were empaneling a jury to try
me | said to friend | would not fear
the result if there were about six wo-
men on the jury. Women understand
their own sex better than men do.
They know side of life that a man
never sees.
They can look at one of her sex
and can tell instantly whether she is
shamming, and they can tell almost
invariably whether she is guilty. WO-
men are not susceptible to false tears,
nor are they easily deceived. and they
can read a wOmans heart every time.
Il would not hesitate to serve on a
jury. | have learned a great deal dur
ing the last year, and believe my eX-
perience would be valuable in the jury
box. No woman would have reason to
fear a miscarriage of justice if cases
in which they are defendants would be
tried by women.
Il give men credit for rendering a
verdict usually in accordance with the
evidence, but | believe there are times
when male juries are swayed and in
fluenced by certain conditions. WO-
men are not so susceptible and would
dissect the evidence without bias or
emotion.

WOOD BOST0N'S
ONE BEST BET

BOSTON, Mass - CEristy Mathew
son a3d Kube Marquard of New York
may be the princes Of the National
League pitchers. Big Ed Walsh may
be the bull moose of the Chicago
White Sox, and the mighty Walter
Johnson Of Washington may be the
best bet of Washington, but the Bos-
Ton baseball public swearS by the
prOwess of young Joe Wood. Smoky
Joe is the pride of every BOstonian
and is as much a part of the baseball
crazy town as are its baked beans.
Younger than any of the quartet
previously mentioned, the Kansas Cy-
clone, as he. is Familiarity called in
Beantown, has attracted the attention
Of the entire country by his marvel
Gus box work during the past four
years. Now that the Red SOx have
met the worlds champions and sent
them down to three straight defeats.
fans all over the United States are
looking up in their dope books the
figures on the Boston team, and Joe
Wood in particular. Upon young
Wood, even more than on Iris Speak
er, Wagner, Larry Gardner, Bill Carri-
gan and Jake Stahl, do the American
League Earttsans pin their hopes in
winning the championship of the
world in baseball.
He has had 10 press agents to
boost him as Vanguard, Honus Wag-
ner. Joe Jackson, Lajoie and other big
men in baseball, but before the worlds
series this fan is over, Wood will be
the most talked of man in the coun-
try, r. r., Wilson and President Taft
not excepted. 1t is the plan of the
Red SoX board of strategy to pitch
Wood every other day during the big
series. For three months now he has
been pitching only about one game a
week, which is easy for Smoky Joe
When the series for the worlds cham
pionship opens, Wood will be in first
class shape and will have all the con-
fidence in the team behind him.
Is Twenty-Five Years Old.
In the first place Wood is 90 years
old, and has been an employe of the
Boston American League team for the
past -FOUR years:- re IS a right handed
pitcher and batter, and is clever in,
fielding his position. This year he
has a record, on September l, OF
twenty-eight games won and four lost
out Of thirty-six games in which he
has taken part, giving him an aver
age of .S75. In other words, he has
pitched his team to a successful fin
ish in seven of every eight games he
has taken part in and has also won
nearly One-third of its total victories
Already he has to his credit more
games than. any other pitcher in

Did top and fOozle from the trees;
All mashie were the bunkers tall,
And the links clicked with trees.
Beware the bunkered course. my son;
The grassy lie, the ponds encroach
Beware the putting green's and shun
The hazardous approach.
He took his driving club in hand,
Long time the red dot ball he
sought;
Then rested he at the second tee,
And stood a while in thought.
And as in goldfish thought he stood
The bunkered course before him
came;
On one side sliced the jigger wood,
The other pulled the same.
One, two, one two, and through and
through
The eighteen holes, with cries OF

He's six holes up. Hes won the cup!
He has a DOGGY score!
And hast thou played the bunkered
course?
Come to my arms, my brasSy boy;
Oh batty days, oh stymie play,
He caddied in his joy.

HOME RULE LEADER ....
COMING TO AMERICA
William Redmond to Attend
Convention. of IriShmen

PHILADELPHIA, Pa, Sept. 10. -
Michael j. Ryan of this city, presi-
dent of the United Irish League of
America, has received a letter from
John E. Redmond, the Irish home
rule leader, saying that his brother,
William Redmond, would sail from
Ireland Thursday to attend the ma
tional convention of the league to be
held in Philadelphia the latter part
of this month, and declaring that so
far as Great Britain is concerned the
battle for home rule has been won.
Our only embarrassment" he says,
''is in the attitude taken up by Sec
ton of the people of Ulster. Continu-
ing, be says: THE home rule bill will
pass through the House of Commons
before the end of this year, but l take
it for granted that it will be imme-
diately rejected by the House of
Lords. This means that we have prac-
tically two years struggle yet before
us. During that time we will need
all the material and moral support
which is possible from our fellow
countrymen abroad"

TOO REALISTIC
GUILLoTINE ACT

COPENHAGEN, Sept. Z. - Adam
Poulsen, the director and star actor
of the fashionable Dagmar theater In
this city. is lingering his neck at in.
tervals today, to make sure il Is in
tact For he very nearly lost his head
in the literal sense by the gufllotine.
Like most of the foremost actors
and actresses in Scandinavia, he as
sists from time to time in the prepa-
ration of cinematograph films This
time he was the villain in a sensations
al drama in which at last justice Is
done and the guillotine falls on the
bad man of the piece.
Poulsen had been assured repeat
eddy that the guillotine had been so
doctOred that he could not suffer-a
piece of wood preventing the knife
from descending too far. But as he
put his head on the block he had such
misgiyings that he jumped up and
said he would test the instrument for
himself. He pressed the spring re-
leasing the guillotine-and, like
flash, the knife fell, cutting right
through the wood. that was to have
stopped it. s-.-
So the actor-manager came close
to fatal realism. Since then. every
time his handsome head has appeared
at the Dagmar theater the audience
has burst into applause.
