BY J. ED GRILLo.

Humboldt. Kan the birthplace of Wal.
ter johnson, celebrated day in honor
Of the great pitcher last Friday
which, according to the Humboldt Union
was the greatest event in the history OF
the town.
Johnson pitched for Humboldt against
lola. which team had Ad Brennan of the
Phillies the rubber. The game went
ten innings, during which neither side
scored johnson struck out twenty-four
men and Brennan seventeen.
For time it seemed that the event
would have to be postponed. johnson
missed his train from CoffeyviIie and it
was only because the Humboldt citizens
chartered q special train that it was pos
sible for him to fill his engagement
This is what the Humboldt Union says
of that incident:
THE time arrived and the crowd was
here but before the noon hour some
thing happened. Distressing news flash
ed over the Wire in message from Wal
ter Johnson. He had been misinformed
as to the time of departure and had
missed his train at Coffeyville His eff
forts to secure a special TO convey him
here had proved of no avail Right then
is where Humboldts pluck and undaunt-
ed courage came into play. An appeal
was quickly taken to Santa Fe officials
of high rank and a special train was
promised.
"A slight change was made in the pro-
gram. The foot ball game between the
lola students and the Humboldt High
School. which was to have taken place
after the ball game. was called at 30
o'clock, and the crowd. headed by the
band. proceeded to the gridiron, on south
Sth street. and witnessed well waged
contest between the evenly matched
teams.
AT $40 O'Clock the Santa Fe special

and mother. arrived al the station. They
had come TO Independence on the inter
