hinge on which the series turned to-
ward the Athletics. With runner on
first base. the batter drove the ball to-
ward right field, it being a wicked
bounder. Most second basemen would
have been satisfied with stopping 1t
and getting the hitter at first. 1t Is
doubtful IL he would have been cred
tied with an error had he missed the
ball entirely. But Collins made a SEN
sational stop, whirled and caught the
runner going to second. throwing

ton. The double play was completed
1t is man who makes plays of this
sort which keeps a team on it's feet
and braces it. For this reason Collins
is of great value to the Athletics, as
he would be to any team, because he is
star of the first water.
His purely mechanical work is poll
ished, and he has the head besides.
He has no apparent weakness either
IN batting or fielding, taking balls on
both sides OF him in covering second
base with equal facility. He hits all
styles of pitching and is dangerous
base runner. He is man to be reck-
oned with in worlds series and the
sort who Is liable to turn the game at
any minute.
DOYLE LIKE COLLINS
Doyle is a good deal Of the Collins
| type. Perhaps he is not as polished.
| but he plays as hard and makes many
sensational stops. In my opinion.
Doyle is just as brilliant as Collins as
a fielder, but maybe not so steady He

old priest who would attend to ran

CAVALRY EXPECTS ORDERS.
Fort Leavenworth to Be Deserted
When Mounted Troops Leave.

Leavenworth, Kan, Feb. 27.-With
the Engineers gone the post has re-
sumed its status of 1911 when the
troops received rush orders to pro-
coed to San Antonio, Tex. The next
question is, when will the cavalry
leave? No orders have been received
for the squadron to make preliminary
preparations, but it is believed by
that it is only a question of a few
days before the order will come to
send the four troops to the border.
Then the post will not have a COM
plete organization.
The few remaining quartermaster
corps men will assume the duties of
caretakers of the property. Many of
the officers wives already are plan
ming to go to their homes prepared for
a long visit until the Mexican situa-
ton is settled.

CHLoRoFoRM CURE IS FATAL.
SaIinan Who Tries to Stop Headache Is
Dead.

Salina, Kan, Feb. 27.-The verdict
of the jury in the inquest held in the
case of Frank Marshall who was found
dead in his bed was that he met his
death by an overdose of chloroform
administered by himself on a hand
kerchief for the relief of a headache.
The evidence given at the inquest
showed that Mr.. Marshall was subject
to severe headaches and often took
chloroform to relieve the pain. 1t
also showed that he was suffering the
afternoon of his death and had gone
to his room early in the evening, tell
ing TIE people not to call him for
supper as he wished to sleep.
At about 9 o'clock the family started
to retire. A daughter of Mrs. Redric,
in charge of the rooming house, was
the first one upstairs and desiring a
blanket in the room where Marshall
was went in to get it. Finding it on
the bed and Marshall lying on it and
not beinp able to wake him or make
him get up, she ran out saying she
could not wake Frank up. He was
dead.
