met by Augustin Birrell, chief Nsecre-

order was restored. A woman who oc-
cupied the box escaped from the the

man in the box aided in the incen-
diarism. She was arrested.
Another outrage occurred while the
premier was passing the princess, when
woman threw Ratchet at the pre-

On the arrival of the carriage at the
hotel, Premier Asquith and Mrs. AS

Irish Nationalist, and the Lord may
or of Dublin proceeded to an elabo-
rately decorated balcony. where Mr.
Redmond publicly welcomed the prime
minister. Great crowds in the street
gave the premier an ovation.
MIR. Asquith in a brief speech said this
was the first time the chief minister
Of the crown had visited Ireland since
the Act of Union and it was beyond
his power adequately to thank the peo-
pie for their memorable welcome. The
premier said he was the ambassador
of treaty of perpetual peace between
Ireland and great Britain.

Keller and Cy Young
Have Rare Records

1t is hard to find in baseball a case
parallel to that Of old Cy Young, not In
Young's length of service but in the
fact that he pitched for a major league
club in one city, drifted away from that
city for years and then returned as a
pitcher for the rival league club Of the
same city. Thus Young and Boston
establish a case not quite unique but
rare.
Willie Keller underwent like experi-
cnce. Keller played few games with
the, New York Nationals away back in
the early 's0s and after nine years of
service in Baltimore and Brooklyn be-
came member Of the New York Ameri-
cans. More than that. che played with
the Giants again after being released
by the Hilltop club. In having played
with three teams in one municipality
and two different times with one Of
those teams, his experience Is unique.
Young's career also includes being q
member Of the Clevelands in the Ma.
tional League twelve club days and
then. after playing in st. Louis and Bos-
ton. returning to Cleveland as an Amer
lean League player.
