DESCENDING LONG HILL

peared. In December 1911 Mrs. Wiki
inson obtained divorce, the location
of Mr.. Wilkinson being unknown.
She was given the custody of the
child by the court.
After residing here for some time
Mrs. Wilkinson moved from flat on
Third street to Wonewoc where her
mother lives. Her former husbands
father also resides there and the two
families were near each other. Mrs.
Wilkinson decided to go TO Chicago
and left the little daughter in Wone-
woo, the girl being with both her
grandparents families.
While in Chicago Mrs. Wilkln-
son was suddenly informed that
the little girl was about to be taken to
Whitefsh, Montana, where the father
is located, and appealed to District
Attorney James II. Hill. An officer
was sent to Wonewoc and arrived just
as the grandfather, Charles Wilkinson,
was about to board the train for the
west. The officer brought the grand
father and little girl to Baraboo and
while the matter was being discussed
in law office the grandfather and
grandchiId disappeared. 1t was
learned that he had engaged an auto
mobile, hurried to Kiibourn and took
fast train west. The district attor-
ney then wired the officers at White
fish. Montana, to hold Mr.. Wilkinson
until further orders. ReQuisition
papers were secured from the governor
of Wisconsin end just as an officer
was about to leave for the west a
message came that Mr.. Wilkinson
was on his way east. He arrived in
Wonewoc in due time but did not
bring the little girl.
Today the case came before Justice
FL. L. Halsted and the matter was
continued for two weeks. The bond
was fixed at $4,000 which was given.
It is said the little girl will arrive
at Wonewoc this week.

L. is on these national officials that

BOSTON, Feb. la meeting between
Dartmouth and Pennsylvania on Sat-
urday, November 15, or on Thanksgiv-
ing Day at Philadelphia will probably
result as an aftermath of Dartmouth's
dismissal from the Harvard football
schedule OF 1913. The Red and Blue is
reported as ION the outs" with Cornell
and the appearance of Dartmouth at
Philadelphia on turkey day should
prove good drawing card and also a
sterling contest should result. The

make up in great part the money deficit

Brown and Dartmouth may renew their
football relationship broken off in 1906
Then too there is a probability that
Syracuse also will play Dartmouth. The
rupture between Harvard and Dart
mouth has stirred up considerable feel
ing throughout New England.
college politics: that's ALL is the
terse comment of one prominent grad
uate of Dartmouth, who in a measure
reflects a considerable sentiment when
he says:
We are not surprised that We are
dropped from the Harvard schedule.
For the past three years there has been
constant effort on the part of some
Harvard men to convey the impression
that We should consider ourselves great
~ honored that we were permitted to
come to the stadium at all. We should
worry and lose our shapes on this ac-
count,
Dartmouth will not lose financially

to arrange two big games to be played
in Boston, Pennsylvania, the Indians
or some of the big Western teams may
be played here at Fenway Park, and
you may be sure that We will draw
thousands TO see the games"

LittIest Manager Turns Loose
Several Queer Tales of the
Diamond.

ST. LOUIS. Feb. I-Recentlys when
asked the aueerest plays he ever saw
on a ball field. Manager Miller Hug
gins of the Cardinals replied:
Two instances of quick thinking on
the spur of the moment occur to me as
being well above the average Certain
ly each played an important part in
the game.
Last year the ST. Louis club. IN a
game with Chicago, had a man Oh Sec
ond and another on third. with only
one out A st. Louis batsman hit a fly
ball out to Jimmy Sheckard.
"Sheckard got all ready to throw the
bali to the home plate. anticipating that
the runner on third would try to score.
But just as Sheckard drew back mis-
arm to throw he saw that the man on
third did not leave the bag, but that
the man on second, expecting that the
player ahead of him would try to score,
had started from second 10 third.
Quick as a fash, Sheckard, with the
same motion. wheeled and let the ball
drive to second, where he got his man
by two feet
THE second play was one In which l
was mixed up myself. Two of our 81.
Louis players were on first and second
bases, with no one out. The man on
second base was slow runner. i was
at bat and IL was my intention to sac
rifice along the third-base line.
We were playing assinst Pittsburgh,
and as soon as the pitcher pitched the
bail he started for the third-base line.
and. I knew he hoped to get the ball
and make a play for forceout AT
third.
Il saw what was coming and had
lust time 10 shift the position OF my
bat and to bunt the ball right down the
lane to the pitchers box. AS the pitcher
had left his position the buDt went Tor
a single. and, with the bases filed, we
scored enough runs to
win the game.
II will tell .,ou three funny incidents
that have occurred during my career.

umpire, Il having rained during all the
game. Dummy" Taylor put on large
pair of rubber boots and went out on
the line to coach. Being q deaf mute

cause the umpire refused TO call the
game when II was raining pitchforks

pitch with a cigarette in his month.
