eral League promoters want the
former National and Red Sock to
take charge of the Brooklyn team of
the new circuit, and he is said to
have been made a f1attering offer.
Aside from money, there is one 9TH
er obstacle to StahPs acceptance of
the Federal. offer. J."Garland is a
warm personal friend of Ban John
son, president of the American
League, and it is not believed he
would accept the offer if Johnson
asked him to turn it down.
When StahI was Inundated during
the season Johnson took stern meas
ures to punish his former bosses, and
saw to it that Jimmy McAleer and
Robert Mercy were removed as
heads Of the Boston team. He has
proven himself StahPs friend and adj
mirer in several other ways.
Manager Joe Tinker of the local
Feds, has transferred Southpaw
Packard, last year with Cincinnati,
to George Stovalls st. Louis team.
This shift was necessitated by Stow
all's inability to sign left-hander of
major league caliber.
1t is probable that StoVaII will now
relinquish all claim to Catcher Art
Wilson, last year Giant, and Tinker
will take over the services of the
backstopped. Joey needs receivers
badly. The rejumping of Killifer hurt
his lineup, and though the Feds will
make a fight for the Philly, even
should they be victorious it will be
the middle of the season before the
case is settled.
In the meantime they must have
catchers and Wilson will probably
bear the brunt of the local work.
Federal League officials, we'll salts

making, are taking temporary rest,

she saw her future husband, for Her

Query: Do good men make any

Herbert came to see me to tell me
how worried he was about Kitty.
''You see, Margie,'' he said, kitty
doesn't seem to be interested in my
work at all and before we were mar
ried she was very much interested
in it."
Before you were married how
many evenings week did you spend
with Kitty"
"At the last we were together

Herbert thought a minute. 81

Herbert began to laugh and that was
a good sign to me. It showed me he
was still real man and not just a
reformer.

more attention from men than your

that neglect any easier to bear. Kitty

me lecturing highbrow reformer

Pets and Broken Hearts.

The dog of Mistral. the Provencal
poet, died the day after Mistral's re-
cent death. II Is n fairly common
thing for dogs, cats, ~canaries and 9th.
er pets to die a few days or even hours
after their masters. But do they die
Of grief? II is not likely.
A Manayunk physician examined
the corpse OF a canary that had sue
cumbed with It's little mistress. The
canary's death. the examination
showed, was due not to n broken heart,
but TO scarlet fever, the malady to
which It's little mistress had herself
s~uccumbed.
From this and from kindred post
mortems It Is surmised that pets. when
they die simultaneously with their
owners. have become infected With
the disease that carried their
of-measles, d~iphtheria. typhoid. The
death.from-grief story Is pretty. but,
