BY WILLIAM PEET.

Eddie Foster. the dininutive third base
man of the Nationals, who has been suf-
fering from a mild attack OF typhoid
fever during the past month. will don a

in the morning practice.
Manager Griffith last night vouchsafed
the foregoing information, and added:
Foster does not want to go to Atlantic

declares that he feels well enough 10

take things easy until Wednesday, when
he can work out with the others in the

Outside Of feeling a trifie shaky in the
legs Foster declares that he is as right
as a trivet.
There is no denying the fact that Fos-

With all due respect to Frank Laporte
and Joe Gedeon, both of whom have
held down third base, little Foster has

his fielding as his ability to pull off

FRONTIER WOMAN
Mrs. Kennedy of White River a
Three Generation Home
steader.

White River, May 21.-Residents OF
this section are prepared to back the
claims of MIS-. F. A. Kennedy for the
homestead championship of the United
States. Mrs. Kennedy, though still
far removed from the classification of
old age, is Il three-generation home
steader.
First she went through the expert
epce with her parents on a Nebraska
claim many years ago; then she as.
sisted her husband in proving up a
quarter in Trip county; and nov she
is living with her son, Allen Kennedy,
who has a claim near White River.
Indications that the homestead ex.
periences have not entirely destroyed
the romantic features in the minds
of Mrs. Kennedy are furnished in the
fact that she is now seeking to OBJ
tain enough hides to completely cover
the outside of her sons shack. BY her
own prowess she is helping out the col
lection and has killed four large
rattlers, the largest measuring four
feet in length.
Mrs. Kennedy's husband is publish
er of the Western LaboreI 10 Omaha.

Chamberlain. May 21.-As the re-
suit of a sensational jail break in

oner was recaptured and the man who

LADY CONSTANCE
Will Dance in New York at
$4,000 Per Week.

New York, May 21.-Little old New
York, the hardest town in the world
to shock, is slated for another gasp
ing fit within the next few days.
Father Knickerbocker has seen much
and endured much without a murmur,
but when Lady Constance Stewart
Richardson starts her season of vaude-
Vile here shortly ne will throw up his
hands in horror. Lady Richardson, it
will be recalled, is the woman who
during the past FIVE years has succeed
ed so well in startling English court
circles with her daring barefoot dane
ing.
In the year 1910 Lady Richardson
was wiped out Of English social exist
ence by the royal pencil of King Ed
wards disfavor after one of her
startling appearances in the British
capital. London, which could wit.
ness the Salome dances without so
much as a shocked "my word" was
thrown quite into histories by the
movements of Lady Constance. King
Edward, who had been a staunch
lIiend Of the titled English woman,
is reported to have blushed deeply,
although blushing was not much in
his line.
Strike her name from the royal
list, " said Edward. And it was done.
IL is said by friends of Lady Con-
stance that she incurred the kings
dspleasure not by dancing her dances,
but by doing them in public where
any plebean with six s~hillings could
see her hare legs and twiukling toes.
She bad frequently done the SHOCKING
dances before the king in private, and
he had %applauded enthusiastically.
But when she danced before the vulgar
public be said to her, in a very cold,
stiff way: You're no friend of mine,
and the next time you come to see
me, I'll not be at home"
1t has never been known whether
Lady Constance was hurt by the treat
ment accorded her by my lord, the
king The advertising she got from
this little incident has done Der a lot
of good. n yway; so she needn't
grieve. She has since done her daring
dances in the capitals of Europe. and
always she has drawn enormous crowds
who have been. anxious TO see Just what
-ort of a dance would shock King Ed
ward.
Here ia New York Lady Contance
will draw a salary of s., 900 a week.
She will dance as the biblical charac
ter, Judith, in a specially written
drama of that name.

NOT AFRAID
Tariff Reduction, Says James
j. Hill, Railroad Magnate.

{. Washington, May 21.-There is at
least one mar identified with big bust
ness who has no fear of the result of
tariff reduction. he is James J. Hill,
last of the railway kings OF America.
In an interview given out in Washing
ton this week the veteran president of
the Great Northern declared that if the
Senate fails to pass the pending tariff
bill the members who are responsible
for it's defeat will be compelled by the
people to seek other employment.
"Wall street hasn't a friend west of
Buffalo, " said the niagnate in summing
up the business and political situation.
"Wall street is merely a counter
over which the people Of the country
are supposed to do their trading. The
gentlemen behind the counter are de-
pendent upon customers, but If those
customers decline to come up to the
counter then things go hard with Wall
street. 1t cannot live very we'll on
itself.
"The stock exchange has had some
pretty bard knocks and / am inclined
to believe that the gentlemen on the
floor are not by any means through
with all their troubles. They seem
to have had regard only for them
selves and cared little for the real in
terests Of the rest of the country.

man, is under arrest here on a charge
of highway robbery. and the police
are searching for his accomplice. Late
at night Carl Sail t, an employe of
the Dakota Farmer. was going home
when he met two men, one of whom
threw his arms about his neck, hold
ing him tightly. while the other went
through his clothes securing 80 in mon
ey and a watch. As a result of Sallet's
description Huffman was arrested. He
made a vigorous resistance, twice es-
Gaping from the officer, but was finally
secured. He had Sallet's watch in his
possession, but claimed he had bought
it. Huffman had been employed as as
%sistant j~anitor at TIE COURT house.
