Chief Bender, Fam.

Crack Trap Shooter

Many sportsmen, especially those
who are interested in baseball, do
not know that the famous Worlds
Series pitcher, Chief Bender, Is a
crack at the traps. But II is a fact.
nevertheless, and for the past thir.
teen years the Chief has found in
trap shooting his principal diversion
from his work on the diamond. Ask
ed recently for his opinion regarding
trap shooting, Bender IL quoted in
Sporting Life as follows:
Like 80 per cent OF the baseball

Bridgeport Takes Pardonable Pride in
Park Rifle Clubs Continued Success

When you consider that this means

machine rest, but with the advent of
these indoor matches the manufac
turers so improved their ammunition
that twenty shot possibles are now
quite common.
1t usually figures out that some of
the men shoot their average, some a
little above and some little below.
This follows the law Of average and
will always hold In every sport. I
believe that the realization of this
law is great help to any man
shooting in competition.
Nothing makes for good scores
more than an even disposition and a
shooter who Is not discouraged by
an occasional poor score will always
shoot better than one who allows
himself to be depressed unduly.
Cooperation from not only the
team members, but the club men,

Hope For "a
Crew Given Up

Honolulu, T. II. March 26.-The
American submarine F.4 lost since
yesterday morning off Honolulu har-
Dor, was located this afternoon. He
roic efforts were being made tonight
to raise the stricken craft, but after
having been submerged for more
than thirty hours it was regarded as
highly doubtful whether any OF her
crew Of twentyone men remained
alive.
To lift the little vessel to the sur
face 1t was found necessary to send
to the Pearl harbor naval station
for a derrick and crane. This in
volved much loss OF time and It was
thought probable that the fate of the
crew might not be determined until
daylight.
Rescue vessels dragging the ocean
bed with graphing hooks CHANGED
upon the stricken craft at a depth Of
300 feet. Making fast to the F4,
the naval tug Navajo and the steam
er Makaala began to tow their find
they were not certain that 1t was the
submarine they had hooked-toward
shallow water.
OH Rises to Surface
Quantities Of oil came to the sur
face, proof that II really was the lost
vessel. Soon afterward a submar.
inc marker buoy, described far below
the water, removed all doubt that the
F.4 had been found.
Just when the marked buoy had
been released by the disabled boat.
there was no means OF determining.
II the signal was given after the crap
ping hooks OF the rescue vessels took
hold then the crews-or at least
some OF them-were still alive.
For more than an hour the tug and
the steamer struggled with their un-
wiedly burden. Soon afterward II
became apparent that 1t would be i'm,
possible to tow the submarine near
enough to shore to bring her to the
surface and hurry call was sent to
the naval station for wrecking ship.
Abandon Hope for Crew
Naval authorities admitted tonight
they had given up hope for the F-4's
crew.
However. resuscitating apparatus
has been dispatched to the scene and
every effort will be made to develop
any spark OF life which may remain.
The general opinion is that the yes.
sells plates were sprung through the
immense pressure OF the water at a
depth of fifty fathoms, and that the
two officers and nineteen enlisted men
aboard have persisted.

Hint At Ruling
lib Thaw's Favor
Two Justices Think He Should Be
Allowed to Go Back to New
Hampshire

New York, March 26.-Two justic-
es Of the appellate division of the
supreme court agreed today that
there was a doubt in their minds
whether the state of New York would
be within its rights in bouncing up
on Harry Kendall Thaw and return.
ing him to Matteawan after his ac-
quittal here On the conspiracy charge
on which he was extradited from
New Hampshire.
They were Justice Ingraham, pre-
siding, and Justice Scott. To voice
their views they interrupted Franklin
Kennedy, special deputy attorney
general in charge of the states case
while he was arguing before the
appellate division against an appeal
taken by Thaw's counsel from a de.
cision Of Supreme Justice Page re-
fusing a motion to return Thaw to
New Hampshire.
Counsel for Thaw had already pre-
sented their arguments which were
based upon the contention that Thaw
having been extradited from New
Hampshire to answer charge Of
conspiracy and having been freed Of
that charge, should be returned forth
with to the state from where he was
extradited. Mr.. Kennedy then be-
gan his argument, contending that
even though Thaw had been ,acquit-
ted the fact remained that he was
now within New York's Jurisdiction
and that as the original commitment
upon which he was sent to Matteawan
was still valid he should be returned
there.
Justice Ingraham interrupted his
argument to say:
Il am in doubt as to the rights Of
the state of New York to pounce up
on Thaw, following his acquittal Of
crime, and then return him to the
state hospital for the criminal insane
at Matteawan. / believe most citizens
Of this state would regard such &C,
ton as dishonorable.
"The question involved In this
case is whether the state Of New
York can with honor hold Thaw on
the commitment signed subsequent
to his second trial, after he was ex-
tradited from New Hampshire for a
specific crime and found not guilty.
when the commitment ordered his
return to Matteawan on a charge
that is not extraditable.
Justice Scott agreed with Justice
Ingraham and informed Mr.. Kennedy
that the question at issue was not
so much the return OF Thaw to Mat
teawan as maintaining the honor Of
the state of New York.
Mr., Kennedy replied:
"The question OF the honor and
good faith of the state is not involy'
ed. The state tried Thaw in good
faith for the offense for which he
was extradlted There is no state or
federal statute which protects him
from the original commitment.
Justice Ingraham remarked that
there was no question Of the legality
Of the commitment and that the only

DAY OF FIRE
PREVENTION
October 9 To Be Observed All
By The People Over The
Country.

The Safety First Federation Of
America announces that October 9,
the anniversary of the Chicag fire.
has been designated as national fire
prevention day. with plans for gen.
eral observance in many cities. Gov
errors of the states have been re-
quested to issue proclamat ons ask.
ing the public 10 cooperate.
A statement issued by the fedora
ton urges that on October 8 all rub
bish be removed from public build
ing- and that careful Inspection be
made of heating, lighting and fire
extinguishing tpparatus. 1t is also
uegested that fire drills be conduct
ed in public schools. with lectures,
on Friday. October 8, by fire depart
ment representatives.
The need of this observance, the
federation's statement says, is made
necessary by tie fact that the fire
loss in TIE United States and Canada
in 1914 was estimated at 1926, sol, :
$50.
Gov. McCreary acting on the sug.
gestion has issued proclamation, in
part saying:
The losses in Kentucky by fire,
on which insurance was paid last
year, amounted to $3,513,117; the
premiums paid to secure fire insur-
ance last year amounted to $685.
768; and these figures do not begin
to cover the unprotected waste by
fire.
II call upon the citizens of Ken
lucky. to set apart October 9th, 1915,
as day upon which to give special
attention to their removal from their
premises Of debris. and oily waste,
which are fire-breeding agencies; to
see that all chimneys and fues are
clean; that tin. zinc or other sheet
metal is placed under stoves, and to
look into these places where articles
which might produce spontaneous
are kept, and for the de-
struction of ignitible material de-
posted where it might endanger
by fire.
II further recommend that, on
that day. instruction be given to the |
pupils in public and private schools
concerning the exercise of care in the |
use Of matches, and al, combustible
materials, and that employees of fas-
tories and other places of industry
be duly cautioned on this subject"

A. G. Spalding.

The Decatur Review prints the
following concerning the life and
work of the late A. G. Spalding
usually referred to as the father OF
baseball:
"A. G. Spalding died in California.
He had his home on Point Iona,
near San Diego, and he rated as a
millionaire several times over. Per-
haps he can be put down as the best
business man this. country has had
in the realm of sports, Many years
ago he was a baseball pitcher, but
at a time when salaries were COM
paratively low. He got to be the
principal owner of the Chicago Ma
tional Leagne team, and out Of that
he made some money. He made big
money by going into the manufac-
ture and sale of sporting goods. He
must have been a capable and adroit
man to handle the situation as well
as he did. When he started the
field was not the big money thing it
now is; also. from the start he had
competition from those who had
more capital. He had to create a de-
mand for his goods as we'll as make
them. He was an enterprising pio-
neer in the field in thiscountry. He
never seemed to be an aggressive
man, not even 10 the days when he
was fighting to win ball games. His
inclination always was to keep his
personality in the background. At
all times shop was the last thing
that he cared to discuss. And yet
be went right to the front and in a
material way, he outstripped all who
entered baseball with him. He must
have had a good business head on
his shoulders.
