Player Has Been One Of the
Sensations Of tho Season.
BY JOHN COLLINS,

The play which to mo seems the
greatest l ever saw is one that was
pulled OF BY the White Sox this sea-
son, and one that passed almost unno-
ticed. / guess that was because 1t
was made in a game in which we were
beaten SO badly that every one over
looked 1t.
The play came along in the middle
Of one of the games at Boston early in
the season. At the time it was made
we had lead OF one run and Boston
was hitting hard and threatened to
pass us. We were fighting to hold that
one run lead, for 1t looked as If We
might win 1t, although we were not
hitting.
It was In the nth or sixth inning
that Boston got 4 runner to third with

In the House Ct the Lord.
1t was beautiful Sunday morning
The pulpit of the Methodist Church
was not occupied by It's regular pas.
tor, Brother Johnson. Instead, a trav-
cling minister, collecting funds for a
church orphanage in Memphis, was
the speaker for the day. Miss Miner
va rarely missed service in her own
church. She was always on hand at
the Love Feast and the Missionary
Rally and gave literally Of her means
to every cause. She was sitting In
her own pew between Billy and jim
my, Mr.. and Mrs. Garner having re-
manned at home. Across the aisle from
her sat Frances Black. between her
father and mother; two pews In front
Of her were Mr.. and Mrs. Hamilton,
with Lima on the outside next the
aisle. The good Major was there,
too; 1t was the only place he could
depend upon for seeing Miss Minerva.
The preacher, after an earnest and
eloquent discourse from the text, HE
will remember the fatherless," closed
the big Bible with bang calculated
to wake up any who might be sleep
ing. He came down from the pulpit
and stood close to his hearers az he
made his last pathetic appeal.
MY own heart" said he, "goes out
to every orphan child. for in the yel-
low fever epidemic Of rs. when but
two years old. lost both father and
mother. II there are any little orphan
children here today. / should be glad
II they would come up to the front
and shake hands with me-"
Now Miss Minerva always faithful

by a preacher; II was q part Of her
religious conviction. At revivals abe

voted lover ON the other side were
among the few who had risen to their

from cover TO cover, from Genesis to

thought she had read Hezekiah

PACIFIC COAST
HAS GOOD MEN
FAR WEST WILL BE REPRESENT
ED BY FINE BUNCH OF MEN
IN OLYMPIC GAMES IN
SWEDEN.

The Pacific coast will be well
represented on the American Olympic
team next summer unless all signs
fail. The Californians are claiming
great things for their athletes now,
and while the enthusiasm may carry
them away a bit, the fact remains that
there are several men out there who
will fit very nicely on Uncle Sans
team for the big Stockholm meeting
Ralph Rose will, of course. be one
of the team. as will Forest Smithson,
the greatest high hurdler that ever
topped a timber, VINO has come out of
temporary retirement to make the trip.
Then there's ollie Snedigar, the ma
tional champion at throwing the javc-
lin. Snedigar is fine all-around ath-
lete. He won the javelin at Pitts
burg last July with "a record toss OF
l52 feet inches. Then he went back
to the coast, and competing in the Pa
c!fic coast championships with a
strained ankle, whipped the spear out
1866 feet, inch. besides taking second
i'm the long jump, second in the shot
put, second in the 56-pound weight.
From the above it will be seen that
Snedigar may prove a very valuable
man in those all-around events at
Stockholm.
Herbert Cheek is another olympic
candidate from the coast. Cheek. like
Smithson. Is coming out of retirement
to try Tor the Olympic team, but those
who have seen him in action declare
that he is a great timber topper. Cali
fornia has a coed man in the ham
n.er throw in Dan Mahoney of the
Irish American A. c.. of San Francis
co. Mahoney has tossed the sixteen"
40 feet and should he show improve
ment this spring will have 4 very
good chance to make the trip
Pete Gerhardt will likely be CALI
fornia's strongest candidate for tho
sprints, but there is hardly a chance
that he will be fast enough To MAX,
the trip. Gerhardt is a slow ten one
man when he is right. The quarter
mile will find the Pacific coasters right
up to date. however, Wyman OF the
olympic club of san Francisco is
runner who will ask odds of but few
in the country. He attracted atten
tion at the national championships at
Pittsburg last summer by running
side all of the way, and running fully
ten yards further than Lindbcrg OF
Chicago, who won the race.

FRAUD is CHARGED IN
RECENT SALE OF KIM
BERLY whitley MINES.

That the sale of the property of the
Kimberly whitley Mines company in
which number OF upper peninsula
people were interested, to Patrick
Flanagan OF Sagola was accomplished
to fraudulently prevent creditors and
stockholders from securing their just
share from the disposal of the COM
Panys property, is the claim made
in suit that has been filed by one
of the stockholders in a Milwaukee
court.
A Milwaukee press dispatch says:
on the petition of John Wegner 1SS
Twelfth street. represented by Attor-
ncy NJ. NJ. Riley, an order was grant
ed by Judge +. c. Schweiler yester-
day directing David J. Cavcn. rccci-
yer and former head of the Kimberly
Whitley Mines company, "a Colorado
corporation in which a number of Ma
rinette stockholders are interested, to
show cause ON Feb. "a why certain al
legged fraudulent sales of the company's
property should not be set aside.
1t is alleged by Mr.. Wegner, that
the property Of the company. valued
at 100000 were sold by Caven, who
was appointed receiver on the petit
tion of G. Marnltz. Milwaukee, Nov. %,

fer $56.40O. the balance of the con-
sideration being made up of fradu-
lent claims and judgments wrongfully
represented to be prior claims on the
assets of the company of those of its
legitimate creditors.
II is Further alleged that the trans
action was an unlawful combination
on the part of Caven and the pur-
chasers to defraud the creditors and
stockholders of the corporation from
their just share in the disposal of the
property. and that no account of his
receivership or the results of the trans
action have been filed.
