There are certain ages wherein
death is very imminent, and OF all
the ages the most perilous is the
age of an hour or two. 1t is just
after birth that we are in the most
danger of death; the next most
perilous age is seventy-one years.
The age of three is dangerous
age. Nearly one-fourth of all the
babies that are born die during
the third year. From three on to
the age of forty-hve, life is COM
paratively safe. Forty-fve, espec-
tally for women, is trying time,
and many die at or near that age.
After passing forty-fve in safety,
men and women may reasonably
hope to reach seventy one. Here
again they are in great danger
the greatest save for the first few
hours after birth. Longevity, or
long life, is hereditary quality
1t passes from father to son and
from mother to daughter. He who
had an octogenarian father may
hope also to reach the age of
eighty, and she who had An octo-
genarian mother may reasonably
expect to round out her four
score years. A fathers longevity
does not pass down to the daugh-
ter, nor does a mothers pass down
to her rald-Progress.

When Bedtime Comes

On Santa Fe train coming out
of Kansas City one night was
mother and her brood of five-four
girls and one boy. They had left
Illinois the day before, and were on
there way to "the new country"
where the husband and father has
a claim which is the new home.
The oldest girl appeared about fif-
teen, and from that age down to the
only boy, a chubby little fellow
about four.
Their dress and manner showed
that they had not been reared in
the midst of luxury and opulence.
but withal they were model chill
dren and scrupulously clean. The
mother was thin and bony, her face
slick and haggard with the long trip
and the care of her precious flock
for their were twenty-four hours
yet before the journeys end.
It was after bedtime when they
left Kansas City, and the younger
ones were soon yawning and scarce
ly able to keep awake. In fact, the
pet of the family had closed his
eyes and was fast approaching
"shut-eye town." while the next
eldest tugged at him while she
looked appealingly to her mother
with au expression that was pitt
full He mustn't 60 to sleep yet.
The others began whispering
among themselves and then to the
mother, as if something exciting
had happened or would happen
soon, all of which attracted the at
tention of the other passengers,
who sat in wonderment as they
tried to devine the cause of SO much
whispering to keep the last one
awake.
Presently the cause of all this
excitement was made plain-it was
bedtime and they had not said their
prayers. Quietly, modestly, with
out ostentation-yes, even timidly

0OAY wanted BY
B0THB|G LEAGUES
Veteran Umpire is Undecid-
ed as to the Future,
However.

Chicago. Jan. 2%0.--Henry O'Day.
better known as Hank. is not yet q
big league umpire. and from what
happened today the veteran is not at
all certain whether he will come back
with his pad and mask. President
Tom Lynch of the National league
sought out the former manager of the
Reds, offered the flattering contract
and then had to return to New York
without the O'Day signature In his
pocket.
O'Day said he was not ready to de-
eide the matter. Lynch had been I'M
der the impression that he would have
no trouble in getting O'Day back on
his staff of arbiters. He even thought
that Hank would welcome u contract
with open arms. but there was none of
this. and Lynch is now aware OF the
fact that he will have to come through
with a big piece of coin if he hopes
to get O'Day away from the American
league. Not that O'Day has fully de-
termined to refuse to return to his
old job. The impression seems to pre-
vail that in the long run he will de-
eide to cast his lot with the American
league. At one time O'Day umpired
for Ban Johnson when the latter was
president of the Western league. and
he is not at all adverse to returning
to his old boss. especially when
f%lattering salary Is Il certainty.
The old-time arbiter will probably
on the fence until February /.

buy IL block of stock. Right now he
has three OF four propositions under
consideration, but refuses to say what
they are. Hanks reasons for wishing
to manage some club are easily ex-
planned. He quit his job as umpire
so as to accept the post at Cincln-
natl. and now that he has had Il taste
of managerial life. he does not like
the idea of coming back toting his
mask and pad.
The same eason may make O'Day
consent to umpire in the American
league. Having quit the job once. he
may % like the idea of going back
where the fans can jeer him to their
hearts content about his venture with
the Cincinnati Reds. The National
league bugs would dote on such a
dish.
President johnson of the American
league is anxious to get O'Day's name
to a contract, but will not act until
the National league is through nego-
tiating. 1t wouldn't be IL bad guess
to say that the veteran is certain to
sign with Johnson nee he decides to
umpire, but the American league is
not going to take the initiative. 1t
will be up to O'Day to tell Lynch thar
he does not care to umpire in the
National league, in which event Lynch
cannot take the American league to
task for grabbing an umpire.

Doom Failed to

Philadelphia. AIN. 2o.-After visit
ing Southern Pines. Winston Salem
and Greensboro. n. c., and Aberdeen
and High Point. Md. in search of
training quarters for the Philadelphia
National league baseball club. Man
ager Charles S. Doom arrived here
without making a decision. Southern
Pines is the spot that Manager DOOM
would like to take his charges to. but
he cannot secure the proper hotel ac-
commodations there. Doom received
several good offers to bring his play
ers to Il number of southern towns.
but will talk them over with President
Locke before making a decision as to
the training spot.
President Locke wrote Charles H.
Ebbetts, president of the Brooklyn
club. approving of Ebbett's plan 10
open the new Brooklyn field with the
Philadelphia club as an attraction.
Locke is of the opinion that there is
nothing in the story that Doom wants
$1,000 to play with the Phillies next
season. If he does he won't get it.
The new leader of the Phillies is
overwhelmed with mail from individ-
uals who aspire to he scouts for the

be no room for individuals who would

(By Harold D. Johnson.)

Chicago. Jan. 20.-Who's who
among the welter-weight title con-
tenders will be determined shortly.
For several seasons this class has
gone without a recognized champion
and promoters in various parts of the
country have taken up the task of
pruning out the undesirables with the
view OF eventually naming the king
bee Of them all. Kansas City, New
York. Memphis and st. Joseph. Mo-,
have enrolled in this noble work and
welters of high and low degree are
rushing to the front.
Interest in the affairs of the 142.145
pound division was heightened last
week when Spike kelly's manager,
Fred Gilmore, stepped to bat claiming
the title on behalf OF his charge. KEEL
ly's clean-cut victory over one of the
topnotchers. Ray Bronson. of Indian
apolis, in eight bruising rounds at the
Phoenix A. c. of Memphis served to
roll certain other wclters. Immediate
~ Jimmy Hurst. handler of Clarence
Wildcat Ferns, set up a great hue and
cry asking where Kelly got the right
to make his championship boasts.
Kelly May. Box Brewer.
In rebuttal Kelly and Gilmore rise
to ask Ferns why he failed to go
through with his match with Kelly at
Memphis last Monday night. The
Oklahoma terrible was originally bill
ed with Spike. hut lodged the issue.
n Bronson. who was substituted,
was accorded an artistic mauling. So
impressive was kelly's performance
that the Memphis club immediately
started negotiations with the view of
clinching Il battle between Kelly and
Harry Brewer. This match is pend
ing and may be clinched for decision
early next month.
While the Memphis promoters are
proceeding merrily with their share of
the elimination process. the Business
Mems club of st. Joe is following a
like course. Charley Pierson. the
fighting ncwsboy Of Denver; Ferns,
Tommy Howell of Philadelphia,
Bronson and Billy Walters, the nevy
champion. who is making his head
quarters here, have been listed for
battles at st. Joe.
Around st. Joseph the idea prevails
that Ferns is the truly great Of the
division and plans have been outlined
to eventually sign the wildcat party
with Walters i'll Il ffteen-round COM
bat {. This match is being touted as
a championship card. But from KAN
sas City comes another roar to the
effect that the right to the title has
met the winner Of the Bronson-Howell
mill which comes off there next We'd
