Haute and the other convicted cleo

city on the Wabash did their first
days work as convicts behind prison
walls yesterday. Roberts worked as
a civil engineer. He is an expert in
that line. Circuit Judge Eli Redman

Hickson was standing nearly. He
sneered.
You're a doctor. Why don't you
get busy?" asked Herren. The doc
tor made no reply.
What kind of a doctor are you

81 know all about this girl" said
DR.. Hickson. 81 examined her when
she was testifying in the Morals
Court three weeks ago. She is sub
ject to fits of hysteria. Just let her
alone-shen be all right in a mo-
ment.'
when she finds a soft spot she'll
be all right. Her mother tells me she
has these fits often. If she has an
audience she will keep them up for.
long time, but if the spectators clear
away she will get up OF her own &C
cord in a moment"
This morning when Hickson was
placed on the stand he was asked
why he called the girl mentally de-
ficient
why 1 gave her my famous test"
said Hickson.
81 think it's about time the public
is enlightened as to just what your
test is. It's costing them enough
money. They read a lot of bunk
about it in the papers, but they don't
really know what it is, said Herren.
Nov demand that you tell why you
branded this young girl mentally I'm
fit merely because she came to this
court as a victim of foul attack"
DIR. Hickson looked uncomfortable.
He shot a distress signal toward
Judge Mahoney. But the judge ruled
he must answer.
"Why / asked her what she would
do if she missed a train and she said
she'd wait for another Of course,
that's nonsense. Then l asked her

forgive the quicker, one who struck
her in anger or who would strike her
when one was not angry. She said,
God forgives us all Wasn't that
rot? What she should have said was
the one who was not angry.
81 asked her what is charity and
she said, "Giving something for moth
ing" instead of saying, Giving
something to help some one, She
also thought the definition of justice
was telling the truth always. Her
idea of goodness was being good in
stead of being kind. Quite batty,
don't you know.
81 asked her to repeat three blocks
of six numbers each and she got
three numbers wrong. Can anything
be more convincing? She couldn't
give me the proper definition of
pride"
what is the proper definition of
pride?" asked Herren.
"Why-why, it's being proud of
something you've done,'' answered
Hickson.
Like running a psychopathic lab
oratory and getting away with $4,000
a year for it, is that the idea?" shot
in Herren. "Why do you say your
silly test is infallible. Why do you
brand people as mentally unfit just
for the sake of your own game?"
why, it's not my test. 1 simply
ask the questions prepared by mas
tiers in Europe" said Hickson.
Then you're parrot, comment
ed Brown. The court adjourned.

Chicago, June 28.-An amusing baseball yarn, conceived in the fertile brain of some enterprising baseb ball
 expert recently startled the base- ball world and caused the officials of the Chicago Cubs no little an noyance This little story had for it's theme the trading of one James. Archer, backstop extraordinary of the Windy City brigade, for Jack Murray. Ed Brainard and another player of the New York Giants. h. cidentally the Cubs were to throw in Pitcher Larry Cheney to assure Mo- Graw of at least an even break on the deal. It is said that when an- preached on the subject Johnny Me- Graw burst into loud guffaws If McGraw could put such al deal through he would be hailed as the most wonderful manager that base ball has even known and Roger

PROS. ARE BEATEN
 BY PIONEERS
Rain Spoils Attendance at Satur-
 days Benefit Game for Boys Club

Despite the fact that the game be- tween the Pioneers and the Profes- sional Mems teams at Walnut Hill Park, Saturday afternoon, was adver- tised as a charity game, two things occurred, that gave the contest an en |. tire different aspect, that this first. is was the unkind treatment of the ele- ments, which came down in goodly slzed proportions a few minutes be- fore the game started, thereby pre- venting a large attendance, and the second was the way the Pioneers bat ters hammered the slants of pr. Zwick to all corners of the lot. The pitch ing was excellent in comparison. with the weird exhibition of fielding behind it at times by the Professionals.
 The chief offender was Judge Bill" Mangan, in centerfield who misjudeed a ny ball and later dropped an easy one, resulting in five runs. which gave the semi-pros the chance to pave the way for victory. As a base ball player, Bill, you are an excellent lawyer
 The bright star of the game was Billy Dudjack for the professional men, who relieved Zwick on the mound in the sixth inning. But one man reached first base and this was on an error by Ringrose, and six players on the Pioneers took healthy swings at the zone, lowing to the mystifying curves and blinding speed Of the High school star. The rooters of the professional men had chance to cheer vociferously when Steve Dud- jack, left fielder for the Pioneers, faced his younger brother, and after desperately trying to secure a hit he returned to the bench, victim of the strikeout route. He also hit home- run in the eighth inning clearing the bases with two on

Bresnahan the easiest. The man who
 engineered" the deal evidently over looked the. fact that Archer is the ranking catcher of the National league and is very potent factor Tn the success of the Chicago club. While the men who were to be given to the Cubs for Archer's services are eltner war worn veterans or un- skilled youngsters. While no doubt the balance of the league deplores the poor condition of the 1915 Giants and would, no doubt, strain point to aid the team, it is ridi- culous to assume that any team would deliberately throw away it's pennant chances to help the New Yorw team. cop the flag, which would be the case if the experts" deal went through. Roger Bresnahan wouldn't sell Archer for all the money in the league.

The Blue Jubilee.

(Evoked by thoughts at New Haven on the graduation of Charley Brickley and Tacks Hardwick from Harvard.) The good old world seems brighter Than it has been in years; The atmosphere is lighter, Replete with rousing cheers; We know that red war wages Along Europe's plain: We know that written pages Are but records of the slain; But what if Prince or Drover Comes to his finaI run? For Brickley's day is over And Hardwick's time is done g Somehow the grass seems greener And the sky'sa brighter blue; Somehow all life is keener With a dream that's overdue; For though there comes the weeping Of a million in their woe, And through the Eagles sleeping Tn the shadow of the foe, What pains are these to sever The golden dream we've spun Since Brickley's passed forever, And Hardwicks time is done? Come, second the tocsinned glory, And start the jubilee; Come forward with the story The Blue, at last, is free; i Safe now from torment torrid, The Bulldog walks in prde, With scars upon his forrid, And patches on his hide; To seek, amid the clover, His old place in the Sun, Where Brickley's day is over, And Hardwick's time is done.

 The Brave Status.
 George Stallings and his clan still believe that the Braves are due for an- other pennant year. But Colonel Stal- lings. while he refuses to admit it. is undoubtedly bothered a pit as to the delayed start. For the Boston man. darin is wise enough to know that the miracle stuff doesn't work every season. No club can continue coming eternally from behind and reaping the fields of glory. The Braves expected to be we'll out in front at this stage In place of which they are fighting for a grip at the top of the second division, getting cratic pitching and failing to hit with expected vim. They are not out of the race by any twist tf the dope-but neither are they as confident of winning as they were lack in April, when not man on the club expected to finish anywhere below the top.

Wouldn't You?

George Stallings tells us that he will land this 1915 pennant to cer- tainty. And we believe him. For he told us last summer he was going to win the 1914 flag and last October that his club would beat the Mackmen four straight games. With this record of veracity back of him, who are we to doubt his word?
 Which is much the way the rest of the American league felt when Eddie Collins passed to Chicago, Bender and Plank left for the Feds and Baker re- sumed hoeing the cornfelds of Mary land.
 We ran line the other day which read: We can do without conscience and do without heart" A conscien- tious contrib chides us for expressing any such sentiment. But is poetic li- .cense no longer permitted in this more end more censored universe?
