churia after he had fallen victim to
her fascinating ways.
Forgetting all loyalty and patriotism
the young officer in his infatuation
agreed to furnish her with certain
plans and facts concerning the guns
and thS movements of the japanese
army and navy, which he had special
facilities for acquiring; but his inten-
ton was betrayed by fellow officer
who had obtained some inkling of
what was going on. The result was
that both tire young officer and the
woman mysteriously disappeared one
day, and have never been seen or
heard of since Their fate can easily
be surmised.
Some time ago the trial took place.
at Toulon of young woman named
Jeanne Rene, alias Bourg, who was
accused of having induced certain ma
val officers to reveal secrets to her
regarding French submarines, which
she intended to sell to a foreign pow
er. The young woman, for she was
only 21, was an opium slave, and it
| was while in an opium den in Toulon'
that she first attempted to bribe a ma
val mechanic named Julien, employed
in the central workshops of the fleet,
to be her accomplice. JULIEN, fortu-
nately for himself, promptly reported
the matter to his superior, and the re-
suit was that the woman was arrest
ed.
Then there was the case Of young
and beautiful woman named Peterson,
who was arrested at Kiel, in Germany
on suspicion of being French spy.
Passing as teacher of language, she
had entered into a love affair with a
noncommissioned officer named Diet
rich, of the explosive department for
the purpose of inducing him to reveal
important German naval secrets. She
had by the exercise of her arts Of fas-
cination, attained complete asaenden-
cy over the young fellow, who was
found to be supplying her with the
formula for the manufacture of Ger
man smokeless powder and the situa-
ton of port mines.
The attention of the authorities was
first drawn to her by the ample funds
she always seemed to have at her dis
posal. Then here was the case Of the
notorious French beauty known as
La Belle Lison, who fascinated a
young French officer, Lieutenant Uli-
mo, who, in order to obtain the means
to crafty the extravagant wh[Iae Of
this woman, had sold so1ne =

ruined him. In the end he was dis
2raced publicly, and sentenced to i'm
prisonment for life.-New York Tele-

BASEBALL NOTES.
= :. :. :. :. :. :. :. :. !. :. :. :. :. :.

Fred Lake, who is scout for the De-
troit Americans says that Deal, who
is playing third base for the Boston
Nationals, was one of the best players
drafted from the international league
this fall.
Figuring out worlds series on the
percentage basis may appeal to some
of the uninitiated; but it will be hard
TO convince the real baseball fan that
il can be done with any degree of ac-
curat.
Captain Blossom of the Yale varsity
baseball team stated at mass meet
ing at New Haven this week that next
years schedule will be much shorter
than that of 1913. He claims that the
hard schedule lost the championship
to Lale because it was too hard ON the
pitchers.
Speaker, the hard-hitting outiicldcr
of the Boston Americans. has taken
up golf. Curiously enough he is a
right handed golfer. despite the fact
that he is a left handed bah player.
He is in II class with FELTON,, the Har-
ward puntcr, who was n right handed
pitcher and left footed kicker.

FEW BATTERS
IN 300 CLASS
II Teams Had to Face Johnson
Records Would Suffer

There would be mighty few 800 hit
tiers il ,he American league if the
scouts employed by the clubs of the
junior organization could dig up a
few more pitchers like Walter john
son. The Idaho phenom has
held his opponents to coll
lective batting average of .lSi i'm the
contests in which he had engaged up
TO last Monday, no team coming any
where near acquiring a 800 batting
average at his expense. In fact, only
one club-Clevcland-had managed to
hit better than 200 against Washing
tons eminent gunner. even the COM
ing champions, the Athletes, who have
triumphed over Johnson thrice this
season. only having batted at .lSJ
clip in the games in which they have
faced hun.
The Maps average against john
son is "a Boston's 1876, Philadcl-
phia's .1S5. Dotroits .l13, Chicago's
.l59. 81. Louis .155 and New YORK $
.l54.
Johnson has twirled 315 2-3 innings
of ball for the Senators this season,
or about 50 nine-innings games. In
these contests his opponents have
made 20j hits in LIE times at bat,
and have scored 40 runs, the average
number of safctics and tallies per
L..
The greatest number Of hits made of
him i'm a contest was Is, the Red SoY
obtaining this total on July 3, in a
contest that lasted 10 innings. Cievc-
land made 10 safetics off Johnson on
May % i'm eight rounds ana 10 on July
Is in nine periods of play. The only
tcamthat hasknocked Johnson off tho
rubber is Philadelphia, the Mackmcn
compelling him 10 retire ON June -,
after he yielded five hits and -four
runs in three innings. Two days later
Sir Walter avenged himself by shut
ting the coming champions out > To .,
and 10y limiting them to three hits.
The American league pitching aver
ages this year are to show the num-
Der of runs earned off boXmcn-infor
nation which the National league
records revealed last season. OF the
81 runs now charged up against
Johnson SO have been earned, which
is just a triilc more than one to the
game Cleveland earned II runs off
his delivery, Philadelphia IT, Chicago
4, Detroit 3, Boston | ana st. Louis
/. The Hghlanders have obtained
only one run off Washington's great
pitcher in 81 innings this year and
that run was unearncd.
Batsmcn have found it hard to
make sacrifices. either of the new or
old fashioned kind, off Johnson this
year. His opponents now are cred
itcd with 10 sacrifice buuts and three
sacrifice flies Players who have had
the honor of making home runs Off
him this year are: Frank Baker, lIar
ny Lord, Ray SchallI, Joe Jackson,
