Larry Doyle captain of the Giants,
pulled a "bOner' earlier in the sea
son that was ii classic. It's safe
bet that 80 per cent of the fans who
saw il or read about it have forgotten
il.
Burns, the Giant outfielder was on
third. There was one out. Doyle
sent a long fly to right field which
Moran caught Doyle ran out the
drive and was just rounding first
when Moran threw the ball to the in
field In the meantime. Burns was
shooting for home. There wasn't a
chance i'm the world for a throw to
catch Burns at the plate. and Moran
didn't make a try for him.
The ball came sailing close to
Doyle just as he was slowing up after
rounding first, and Doyle, 10 the
amazement Of everyone present.
reached out and raught it.
The Braves at once rushed TO the
umpire and claimed that Doyle's act
prevented their making a play at the
| plate for Burns. In reality. no play
had been made but the umpire could
do nothing else bat rule in favor of
the Braves, and although Burns had
| scored and already was back in the
dug-out, the umpire nulled Burns
run and declared him out because of
DOyie'S interference.

Do you recall the "bOner'' that the
brainy Johnny Evers pulled in the
1914 world series? Probably not
simply because the "boner" did not
count against the Braves in the final
analysis.
An ugly bounder was hit by Evers.
1t was just within reach, but too far
away for him to field clearly. One
of the Athletic runners crossed the
plate on the drive and another raced
from second to third. Evers, peeved
because he had failed TO field the
ball. began throwing IT down into his
mitt-sort of playing with himself.
Evers was obliviOus TO everything
else. whereupOn the Athletic runner
on third shot for home and scored
almost before Evers was awake To
the trick.

The British Cover nment in It's reply
dated February 8, claimed that mas
much as Great Britain permitted
other countries to make use of the
British flag in time of war, it would
be contrary to fair expectation To
hegrudge British ships the liberty to
take similar action now but added
that the British government had mo
intention of advising merchant snip
ping to use foreign flags as a general
practice or to resort to them other
wise than for escaping capture ana
destruction.
Great Britain contended that an OBJ
legation rests on a heligerent war
ship to visit and search before at
lacking and if this were done hellis-
erent nationality could easily be verl
fled. The British note never was
answered by the United states and Ii
is believed that evidence thus fai
gathered will be made basis for ihe
renewal of the correspondence mus
begun.

the fact that the prospectOr is a

FIFTEEN YEAR HUNT TO END.
Captain c. e. Farrand's Widow to Be

Denver.-Mrs. May Spencer Farrand.
second wife of the late Captain Charles
E. Farrand, T. S. A., retired. who mys-
teriously disappeared fifteen years
ago, may soon be declared legally dead
in order that the captains estate may
be settled. The only heir the attor-
neys for the estate have been able to
find is Mrs. Louise A. Ryder Of New
York city, daughter Of Captain Far
rand by his first marriage.
A nation wide but futile search has
been made for Mrs. Farrand for fifteen
years by war department officials, fed
eraI secret service men and attorneys,
since she left Arvada, a Denver suburb,
shortly after her husbands death.
Neither relatives nor friends have since
heard from her.
"Unless Mrs. Farrand is found in a
few weeks, Public Administrator
Woodward said, ''she will have to be
declared legally dead, and the captains
fortune will go to the only heir we
have been able to locate, but if she
is found half Of the fortune will go to
her."

Status of BaItimoreans Fighting Ir
Europe Is In Doubt.

Europe Is In Doubt.
Baltimore.-A question of law may
arise if the young Baltimoreans now
fighting in Europe John Poe, John
Sydney Howell, Alexander Godby and
Martin d. Monaghan, attempt to re-
turn to their native land. 1t is held
by the department of labor that by
taking up arms they have eXpatriated
themselves. This was the finding in
the case of Frank Caswell of Harri-
son, Me-, a trooper Of the Canadian
contingent, who attempted to come
home, but was held up by the authori-
ties on the ground that he had ceased
to be citizen of the United States.
Local officials declare that q different
light may be thrown on the subject
when it becomes known under just
what conditions these young Balti-
moreans enlisted. If they swore al
legiance to the flag under which they
aspired to fight they Of course ceased
to be citizens of the United States, but
there appears to be doubt as to just
what the foreign powers exact of their
recruits.

Business Administration.

The Baraboo Democrat: Seldom are
there spoken words of more genuine
patriotism than were contained in the
speech delivered by United States
Senator Paul o. Husting Mt the get-to-
gether of the democrats of the tenth
congressional district, held at Eau
Claire. AS was to be expected Senator
Husting paid his respects to the business
administration now doing things in
Wisconsin. He showed how the late
session of the Legislature had been not
only long, but how it had been expen
sive beyond the history of legislatures
in Wisconsin. And he showed right
where the waste of money had been
Dracticed.
