Why the Bankers of West Vir-

by Charles Brooks Smith /

WASHINGTON, Oct. 24-In let
Ter to Congressman Sutherland
George M. Jacobs, president of the
Peoples National Bank at Fairmont,
asks whether it would be advisable
or the banks OF that city to send a
delegation Of representatives to APP
pear before the Senate committe on
currency which is conducting hear
lhg on the currency BILL After con.
erring with the chairman of the
committee. Congressman Sutherland
adyised Mr.. Jacobs that the hearings
viii close Saturday and that all its
time has been allotted, but should
somebody already slated failed to ap-
pear, the Fairmont bankers would be
given that vacant time, providing
they were here ready to take advant-
kge of the opportunity to be heard
Congressman Sutherland also advised
Mr.. Jacobs that it would be equally
as effective II brief were prepared
by the bankers of Fairmont setting
Forth their views, which brief, if pre-
;IaTed and sent, he would in person
lay before the Senate committee.
In his letter. Mr.. Jacobs sets down
succinctly and clearly the reasons
why the bankers of West Virginia as
n class oppose the bill as it passed
3he House, which were practically the
9same reasons which caused the three
representatives from West Virginia
Ssuerland, Avis and Moss-to cast
their votes in opposition to the Glass
lbill.
I'VE believe that there are three
very damaging provisions in this bill, !
says Mr.. Jacobs. which will be detri

Gated by the workers of The PaIama

1t has been estimated BY the work

one per cent of the pupils of the pub

Or using, and the many cases of
throat trouble which occur from time

schools are believed to be caused by
the improper care OF the teeth. Miss

vital needs of the school c"iidrrn at

HERESOyE ON
UMPIRE EVANS
BY BILLY EVANS.

Perhaps no player of modern times
has given the baseball fans of the
country as many laughs as the. ire
pfessible Germany Schaefer. Schaefer
is continually cutting up on the ball
field, and there isn't ''draggy mo-
ment" when he is putting On his com
edy stuff. Assisted by Nick Aitrnck,
the team of Altrock and Schaefer pull.
ed so much comedy stuff last season
that President johnson informed them
they were actors, not ball players, and
should use the stage instead of the
diamond for their horse play. AS a
result the umpires were instructed to-
curtail the comedy stuff of the two
National coachers. Acting on the adj
vice given them, the two Teutons are
doing the vaudeville houses this win
ter.
During q game at Chicago last year
Schaefer pulled one at my expense
that got a laugh all around. Now Chi
Cago is Schaefer's home, and naturally
he likes to perform his very best in
this city. His friends are always at
the game in droves, and make 1t a
point to kid Herman to the limit, but
trying to best Schaefer in a kidding
match is a right difficult proposition.
In the game in question Schaefer was
coaching at third, when one of the
Washington batters hit a foul ball in
the direction of the Chicago bench.
One of the White Six recruits hustled
out to get the ball, but just as it near
ed him it took bad bound and struck
him on the head. 1t didn't hurt him
in the least, and he at once picked it
up and threw it to Ed Walsh who was
pitching.
Il wish you would have a look at
that ball, Bill" requested Schaefer;
Il rather thing it is cut" l motioned
TO Walsh to throw the ball in. L
looked it over, but after a careful ex-
animation was unable to find anything
wrong with the sphere
"It is all right, Herman" I yelled
Much obliged, Bill" he replied. Il
didn't care to take any chances, as
they tell me there is a bit of ivory in
that young mans head"

played of the season. As the final
score stands, the Rams lead the list
one point in advance of the Saints,
with the Highs coming in for third place
with four points, and Mills last with
one. The Saints were unfortunate In
their first game with the Highs by
playing a draw, and it was in this
game that the Highs seemingly did
their best. " 81 ?. -. r, o.. T
In the game yesterday the Rams had
everything their own way, ronrping up
and down the field and scoring two
goals in the first half as a result of
good playing on the part of KauihaDa
The second half Melted them one more
goal, this being made up by Captain
Sam Hussey. Although the Highs
made several good attempts to score,
they were utterly outpeinted on every
side :. = - &
Good team work was the big factor
in the RAMS taking the championship
this year, and the players are to be
congratulated on winning the series.
The Saints also come in for their
share of the honors. by scoring nearly
as many goals during tine season as
the other three teams tkgether. -. /

JACK TWIN
/ SULLIVAN OUT

| Jack (Twin) SULLIVAN, one OF the
Scleyerest of the middleweights for the
past dozen years the ring has had, is
through with the game. For over fif-
teen years Jack has been meeting all
Corners about the country, but when
he tried to 60 the route with One
Round Davis at Buffalo, N. Y, the
other night he found that the stamina
was no longer with him and that the
Younger man was his master. Jack
tried hard enough to battle success
fully against the young heavyweight,
but try as he would be found that he
was met there" After being roaghed.
and worsted for three rounds his sec
ongs threw the towel into the ring to
save him the humiliation of knock
out, and it was over with Jack, as far
as more ring glory Is concerned. With
the passing Of Jack it is probable that
bis brother Mike, also one of the clever
ring generals of the past dozen years,
will also quit the game; Intact, Mike
has been thinking seriously of retiring
for the past year, although he has in
timated desire to meet Mike Gibbons
for the 150-pound honors. With Jack,
however, It is all off now, unless he
should give occasional exhibitions.
Jack was very much like Joe Choyn-
ski-that is, being unfortunate enough
to be too heavy for the middleweightI
class and too light for the heavy
weights. He could make 15S pounds at
one time, but of late years he pre-,
ferred the 162-pound mark. But heI
was always meeting men in the heavy
weight division, as his battles with
Tommy Burns, Jim Flynn, Bill Squires,
Tony Ross, Jim Stewart. Porky Flynn
and Joe jeanette viii attest. He start
ed fighting in 1898 and has had over
lao ring battles since that time, many
of them over the twenty-round route.
He met all the good men of that per-
iod and his cleverness always carried
him along in good shape. He suffer
ed four knockouts in his long career,
two by inferior boxers and one each
by Philadelphia Jack O'Brien and the
other by the late Stanley Ketchel.
