had been made earlier the settler
had raised yoke of steers, which
with the two wheeled ox-cart
made it passible for him to haul a
load of corn to some Tavern" on

the logs that lay across his path,
to make room for his wheels, and
do some digging on steep hill

The people who had settled on
the rich Cumberland river bot
toms and tributary streams had
to provide something better than
the ox-cart. A covered wagon
with wonderful shaped, iron

hauling goods from Louisville,

Lynch Puts Ban on Called Games
Square Deal to Fans.


They may find it hard to believe,
but the fans are going to be gamers
as q result of the game forfeited to
the Cards by the Cubs last Sunday.
There never would have been oc-
casion for the staTing tactics en-
pIoyed by EVers, which resulted in
the forfeiture, if it had not. been
agreed to call the pastime at 5 o'clock
in order that the Cards might catch
a train.
In order that there may be no
repetition of the rank exhibition
President Lynch of the National
League has notified his umpires that
in the future nine innings of a game
must be played unless rain or dark
ness butt in. There will be no more
early starts or ampUtated endings in
order that team may catch a train.
This practice of calling games has
resulted in many unsatisfactory set
tos this season. On numerous occa-
sions the teams behind have stalled
for time, but never in such a crude
manner as the Cubs did.
This order of Lynch's is just to
the fans who pay their money to see
ball game, which, under ordinary
conditions, is a nine-inning affair.
It is not a square deal to the man
who pays his coin at the gate to show
him half a game for the full price.
Announcement of the shortening of
the games is never made until the
teams take the field for hOstilities.
Then the fan has paid his money
and there is no chance for rebate,
Many fans, who are able to see
only few games a year, want their
moneys worth when they do go to
the ball park. Then don't get it I'M
der the caIled-by-agreement system.

One play by Hal Chase in yester-

was practically unnoticed because Of
the praise being showered on
Catcher Ray Schalk for his stellar
offensive and defensive work, saved
a lot of trouble for Jim Scott and

the game for the White SOx
It happened in the fifth inning.
Daniels, first man up, a fleet run
ner, rolled a slow one to Harry Lord,
which bounded high. The local third
baseman dashed in to make a hur-
ried play and grabbed the bounder
near his shOetops, while unbalanced.
Without setting himself to throw he
pegged toward first base. The heave
was about four feet inside the bag
along the base line toward the plate.
Hal Ieaped over with his back to the
ball and smotered it in his right.
Daniels, who had been tearing down
the path, was abreast Of Hal. There
was no chance for the latter to touch
the bag. With a quick combination

MAIL TRUCKS RUN
RECKLESSLY IN CITY
District Officials Intend to
Prosecute Drivers Who Wo-
late Traffic Rules.

Drivers of automobiles of the city
postoffice, used for collecting and de-
livering mail, are to be prosecuted for
violations of the traffic regulations just
the same as drivers of other vehicles, ac-
cording to. announcement of the Com
missioners, today.
Numerous complaints against the al
legged recklessness and disregard of the
traffic regulations and ordinary rules
of the road by the drivers of mail au-
tomobiles have been made recently, and
preciated having the Commissioners
ritt, calling his attention to the mat
ter. Mr.. Merritt replied that he ap-
preciated haing the Commissioners
bring it to his attention, and that
he would instruct the drivers to careful
ly observe the traffic regulations.
Commissioner Newman was on his
way to office this morning when he
noticed the driver of a mail automobile
stop on the wrong side of the street
az letter box at Twentieth street and
stopped his carriage and inquired of the
driver of the automobile if he had not
been instructed recently to observe the
traffic regulations. The driver said he
ber of the automobile-D. c. 13.g59-and
continued on down to the District build
ing.
On the way he met Major Sylvester,
who got in the carriage and rode
downtown with the Commissioner, who
told the superintendent OF police of his
experience. Major Sylvester said that
he. too, had had complaints about the
alleged violations of the traffic regu-
lations by the mail automobiles. II
was then decided to prosecute all
drivers who violated the law
Major Sylvester had a member of the
department make application to the
Police Court for warrant for the
driver of automobile No. 1885, and
when the case Is called Commissioner
Newman will be the complaining wit
ness. 1t is probable that orders will
be issued to members of the Police De-
partment to pay special attention to
alleged violations of the traffic laws
by the mail automobiles.

Yorke was directed to st. Johns with
out difficulty, and although he was bent
upon more stern business. he could not
deny himself a moments admiration
for the sheer beauty OF the edifice.
Although not large in comparison with
the churches of today. II had been
faithfully constructed on the lines of
an Old World Cathedral, and the air of
solemn grandeur and exaltation en-
veloped 1t as shrine while It's slender,
delicate spires were raised in benedic-

While Yorke stood regarding 1t a lit
tie, bent. white-haired man came out
of narrow side door. and leaning a
broom which he carried against the
wall, he turned to lock up behind him.
Instantly .Yorke was at his side.

The little old man turned and regard

sexton now. Did you wish to go over
the church,"
Yes" Yorke quickly seized the op-
portuntiy tor further conversation.
Can you show me around? I have
seldom seen finer church from the
exterior"
"It Is one of the Oldest and greatest
churches IN New England" returned
the old man. with dignity, as he reopen
ed the little side door. '.If you win
come this way, sir, through the vestry
room. 1 will show you the memorial
tablets on the right wall.
who is your pastor now" Yorke
asked in subdued voice as he stepped
within.
sDr. Dickinson Edes"
"A fine preacher?"
"A good man, sir. A painstaking.
conscientious man, but not eloquent.
He speaks from the mind, not the heart.
as Dr.. Bigeldw did.
DIR. Bigelow was your late pastor.
was he not? I am acquainted with rel
atives of Mrs. Bigelow in New York.
Are you, sir?' the old man looked
with new interest at his companion. "Dr.
Rigelow died two years ago, stricken in
the pulpit here as he gave the benedic-
tion after the Easter morning service.
full preacher. People came from all over
the country to hear him"

course, that his daughter died only the
other dayT
"Yes. Poor Miss Victoria ~
The quick tears of old age sprang in
his eyes, and he wiped them away with
gesture at once simple and unashamed.
Then he led the way resolutely to a
huge, richly colored stained-glass win
dow. set high in the wall of the church.
This window, sir, was erected by
Miss Abigail Bowditch, in memory of
her father, Col. Anson Bowditch-'
Throughout the next half hour Yorke
patiently allowed his ancient guide to
perform his perfunctory duties to his
own satisfaction, but it was doubtful
IL he carried away with him any def
mite knowledge of the church's claim to
historical interest, or Of the very excel
lent people whose names were reverent-
ly commemorated there.
