Mrs. Doyle Knocked Out.

Mrs. Larry Doyle is much like Mrs.
Meyers. as she gets laugh out of most
everything that comes along. She also
knows base ball. and she and Mrs. Meyers
and Mrs. Thorpe now and then take their
regular practice throwing and catching
the ball.
Mrs Doyle has the distinction on the
trip of being the only one among the
women who has been knocked out during
the practice. The other day she was
catching baettd balls. missed one and
the ball hit her on the head and she was
out for several minutes. Now she sticks
to the suffragette end of the game, which
is not quite as exciting, but safer.
Ms IsDeli is the matron OF the party,
and she has seen too many games to get
unduIy excited over a two-bagger or a
strike-out. She depends on her young
hopeful for the latest dope of the ma
tional game.
There is one drawback for women to
travel with ball team-they are shutout
from most of the banquets, as in the ma
iority of cases they have been stag af-
| fairs AS dutiful husbands, this has also
served to keep such as Thorpe, Meyers,
DoyIe and others away.
Despite the fact that the woman root
ers are excluded from the sacial activities
around the banquet board they have GER
taiulv been taken care of by the natives
( wherever the teams have stopped. Not a
nlace hardly but that automobiles have
heen Mt their disposal. Flowers have
heen showered on them, and now and

Women on the Trip With White

Lots of Fun.

SAN FRANCISCO, November IT,
That there has not been some excite
ment on board the Sox-Giants de luxe
special is no fault of the woman fans
There have been plenty of reasons for it,
Hit. Jack, hit me-" has been the motto
among the half-dozen brides on the trip
And Jack in the person of one or the
other pitcher, has been hit occasionally,
and this has caused some heartburnings
among the female reserves on the
bench. Be 1t known that the brides are
warlike enough. or loyal. as the case
may be, to sit on the bench at the
majority of games.
And here is the unvarnished tale of
roofing:
"Oh. you dear boy. Hit it out. Oh.
pshaw, he had to strike him out! Oh.
well, you just wait until next time.

but. of course, there can't be much
sentiment with her, as she has been
married fully five months.
Then there is Mrs Tesreau, a real
honeymooner. Mrs. Tesreau is of ex-
ceedingly quiet disposition, and simply
and just looks and looks when her strap
ping big husband is on the slab. Oh
Tess.' Is pretty big comment for her.
Mrs. Meyers Does the "Kidding."
And there is Mrs. Meyers. the life or
the party. Mrs. Meyers has been mar
red long time. and doesn't take the
game quite so seriously. She simply
laughs and finds her greatest delight in
kidding the rest Of the wives.
..Oh, Jim isn't much of a player" she
starts. referring to the worlds greatest
athlete. 1T takes the Chief to him them
from the attractive Indian helpmate Of
Thorpe. and usually elicits this obser-
vation in sort of soliloquy. WELL he s

could be to that?
Mrs Hal Chase communes with herself

Mrs. Albert Russell. the newest bride
of them all. is not vociferous. but ear

ing for Joe Benz, her cousin and she Is
certainly loyal to both. She has learned
to call her better half Tex, but this does
not come out except unQer some unusual
strain. strike-out. and she looks as
happy sif she again were on the way
10 the altar.
She is never at loss for comeback
when any one questions the ability of
Tex or Joe as pitchers. and 1t might be
mentioned right here that it is much like
a feud when the game is close, with
, Chicago and New York pitted against
each other. The fight on the field is not

WOMAN AND CHILDREN
EACH HAVE 2 HEARTS;
SCIENTISTS AMAZED

EASTON. PA, Jan. l7.-Medical au-
thorities are amazed today over the
discovery by DR.. James Morgenstein
that Mrs. Berton Perkins and her three
children. Anna. Allen and Doris, aged
thirteen, eleven ana four respectively,
each have two hearts.
This is regarded as the most Won
derful phenomenon in medical history
and specialists are coming here to join
the county medical association in a
further examination Of the family so
soon as they are liberated from a
chicken poX quarantine.
Dr.. MOrgehstein, who was examining
the chest of one Of the children. afflict-
ed with chicken poX, was startled when
he located another heart on the Child's
left side. He then examined the other
children and finally the mother each
showing a heart on either side of the
breast.
To outward appearances the Perkins
are like other humans, and the children
are all healthy and strong and mix in
with their playmates in their games.
