FIRST TOUCH OF
REAL LIFE.

City Marshal, and Democratic City
Chairman Adelbert Cranney, il is re.
ported, received his first touch of pol.
iceman's life at the basket ball game
the other evening. The game was
between the two big local schools, at
which time College Spirit runs high,
and the supporters of the schools vie
with each other not only in the game
itself but in the rooters gallery as
we'll At this time enthusiasm was
almost unbounded. and the new Mar
shall conceived the idea that he would
"quench the spirit" With all the
dignity he could muster, and with an
air of authority and confidence that
would have turned Sherlock Holmes
green with envy, he walked into the
thick of the crowd and demanded
that order be restored. Just as the
last faint sound of his demand faded
from his lips one of the schools
brought up a rear rush and the Mar
shall was sent "scooting' along the
floor, only TO be checkmated BY
guards OF the other forces and whirl-
ed back among the multitude of husky,
noisy students. When Marshal Del
bert was last seen he was in the mid.
st of as thick bunch OF humanity
as ever got together, with clenched
fists pounding the sky, and yelling
''by hockey you stop this" Later N
the evening he was seen only in COM
pany with Policeman Benson, 10
whom he trusted all matters of Off
cial discipline.

TELLS time But
This CLOCK HAS
No MECHANISM

What makes that clock rum" Is n
question that Is agltating Fort street
pedestrians who pass the jowelry store
Of william PruCha. In the window of
the store is big glass time dial
about two. feet wide and deem. with
hour and minute hands twelve and
eighteen inches long. That II all there
is to the clock except the steel pivot
on which the hands are attached to
the face. There Is absolutely no EVIL
dcnce Of mechanism about the clock,
and II keeps perfect time.
Gravity-Or n system Of weights
worked out to keep in minute motion
the hands. Is the most plausible first
guess, but the theory II somewhat ex-
ploded when PruCha takes the hands
Off the clock, and after replacing them
they return to points indicating the
exact time Of day. And still more
astonishing is the fact that the hands
can be whirlcd either way on the dial
and viii always come back to n posi-
ton pointing to the correct time. It's
u puzzle I'll are invited to work upon,
but PruCha gives no assurance that

Number Of eatsmen.

Jimmy Sheckard Of the Cubs was
the most patient waiter In the Ma
tional league last season. according
to official statistics prepared and is
sued by Secretary Heydler as sort
OF supplement to the conventional
averages. The Cub left fielder was
given 147 bases on balls in 166 games
last season. and that not only was
far ahead Of any other player. but
outdid the previous walking record
of the league. held by Miller Higgins.
That was 116 passes in 151 games IN
1910.
The generosity OF National league
pitchers last season resulted in TO-
tai of 4,27s bases on balls. St. Louis
pitchers we're most liberal, issuing
500 free trips to first. but the Cub
hurlers were close behind them, with
a record of $50 passes issued. Gin
cinnati was third with SIS, and Brook
lyn was last with 425.
Besides Sheckard. who led the
Cubs. the best walters on each team
were Bates of Cincinnati: 103: Hug
