Henry Dickmeier while passing
through the alley back of the
Pin-Ton Wednesday about 1890
o'clock, was approached by a col
ored man who asked him if he
would change a quarter for him.
Mr.. Dickmeier took out his
pocket book to accommodate the
negro, and it was so well filled
with the long green that said
negro thought he could use all of
it, so he grabbed the pocket book
and away he ran. And so far as
any one knows he is still running.
Mr.. Dickmeier is minus $44. The

Greys 7; Xix Club 5.

The Greys nine, mainly because
of the aIl-around ability of its
pitcher, "Zim" Caldwell, defeat
ed the Hix Club at Greystone
Park Sunday afternoon by the
score of Z to 5. The Greys took
the lead, but were soon passed
by the Kansas City boys. The
score stood 5 to 8 in the visitors
favor at the beginning of the
ninth inning, but in the last half
of the ninth the Greys started a
rally which settled the match 7
to 5.
Caldwell pitched a splendid
game, allowing only two hits,
and striking out 16 men, while
Nicholas of the Hix Club allowed
6 hits and struck out three.
In the first of the ninth it look
ed as if the Hix Club was going
to carry off the bacon. In the
last half of the ninth things be-
gan to look different. Ashurst
went to bat and got a single
Thieman dittoed, Howe, the
next man, laid down a bunt

sOnninO the Man of the Hour.

today is Baron sidney OOlnlHO, L
the Italian foreign master. He
is admittedly the strong man of
the present ministry, the pilot to
whom has been entrusted the
delicate and difficult task of guild (
ing the Italian ship of state
through one of the stormiest .
periods in the history of the
kingdom. 1t is Sonnino who has
conducted the conferences Of the
past few weeks with Prince Won
Rulow, the former German i'm
perial chancellor whose mission
in Rome is to induce Italy to keep
aloof from the present war. 1t
is Sonnino, also who has con-
Quoted the negotiations with the
diplomatic representatives Of the
Allies. And it is Sonnino, ac-
cording to the popular belief,
who will cast the die deciding
whether or not Italy is to join
actively in the general conflict.
I Baron Sonnino has had an ex-
perience in public affairs that has
well fitted him for the important
post he now occupies. He has
filled a variety Of positions in
the public service and is consid-
cred one of the greatest author
tiles in Europe on all economic
questions. He was in the diplo-
matte service from 1867 to 1872
and entered the Italian parlia-
ment in 1880. He was minister
of finance from December, 1898,
to April, 1894, when he became
minister of the treasury, a post
which he retained until 1896,
when he became premier and
minister of the interior, retain
ing office until 1906. During this
period he did more than any
other statesman to revive the
prosperity of Italy and restore
her credit. In 1909, upon the
resignation of the Giolitti cabi-
net, Sonnino was again entrusted
with the formation of a new min
,, istry, and retained Office until the
following year.
: Baron Sonnino is in his sixty
ninth year. He was born in Pisa
and received his education at the
: famous university in that city
His mother was an English
woman and he resided in Eng
land during a part of his youth
He is of Jewish origin on the
paternal side, though he has
never professed the Jewish
faith. His grandfather, it is
said, migrated from the ghetto
Of Leghorn to Egypt, where hC
built up an enormous fortune as
: a banker, a fortune which thu
statesman of today enjoys.
In his early years in the diplo
matte service Baron Sonninc
served as a junior secretary a
the Italian legations in Madrid
Vienna, Berlin and Versailles
He then took up the study of tn,
working classes in various part
of Italy, and a book which HI
wrote, dealing with labor ant
agrarian problems, made quit,
a stir at the time. The sam
problems occupied much of hi
attention during his parliamen
tary career. Although a Con
servative, he has always enioye,
much favor among the Social
lists because of his support 0
universal suffrage and other lib
eral measures. One of his frs
acts when he became premier i,
1906 was to send a despatch t
