Last spring it was Hugh High who was going to send the old all-round handy man of the HighIanders to the discard.
 i've been in the American League for nine years,'' said Roy not long ago. t'and can't remember the time when was ever regarded as regu- lar. I have played longer as a. regu- circuit, and yet during all that time have never been certain that would stick from one day to another. In St, Louis the papers were reporting nearly every day that was almost ripe for a. place on the bench, and with the Yankees it has been the same Last year Frank Chance was always grooming me for the utility job, but played in all but a few con tests, and was out only because of bad leg. That sort of thing, kept up for ten years, might get on the nerves of some players, but 1t doesn't bother me- I'm not a bit tenperaInenta1.'s =
 Every year since he entered Ban. Johnson's league HartzeIl has wit messed each spring the development or some youngster who was certainiy going to take his place. Last year HartzeH batted .2s3 in 137 games. Tn 1913 his record was .250 in HI games and in 1912 it was .272 in 123 con tests
 HartzeI was born in St. Louis on. July 6, 1881. He played with the Browns before Joining the Yankee staff. During the greater part of his major league career he has been with a club which had a, hard struggle to keep out of the cellar.
 St. Louis has turned out a number of diamond stars since the beginning of the game. Bobby Byrne was born in the Mound City and commenced his professional career in Fort Scott. Kan. Harry Steinfeldts long with the Reds and the Cubs, made his nun dane debut in the Mound City, and got his baseball start in Fort Worth, Tex. Artie Holman was a product of St. Louis and the Trolley League, Vincent Campbell claimed the Mis- souri metropolis as his native city, and first played ball with Battles vile, Okla.
 As a producing center for baseball celebrities. however, St. Louis has to play second fiddle to Kansas City.

day afternoon at her home on Pier
pont avenue after a brief serious i'll
ness. She was taken suddenly i'll on
Tuesday evening with headache. and
continued TO grow worse rapidly I'M
til the end.
Mrs. McCool had been in declining
health from heart trouble and compli-
cations for the last several months.
She recently spent several weeks in
the North Wheeling Hospital and re-
turned home from there slightly i'm.
proved, but with the knowledge that
she would never be entirely we'll again.
For the last week she had been /
to be about the house and was sitting
on the porch when she was stricken.
She Don became unconscious and re-
manned in that condition.
The news OF Mrs. McCool's very
serious condition, followed by the an
nouncement OF her death, deeply
shocked the community OF which che
had been a resident for more than
twenty years. She was formerly Miss
Mary Busquet. a daughter Of the late
Charles Busquet, OF Philippi. When
d little girl she moved with her par
ents to the oil region in Pennsylvania,
and later resided at Bradford, Pa.
Her marriage with Mr.. McCooi took
place at Bradford.
Mr.. and Mrs. McCool resided for
some time at Bradford and later in
Washington, Pa. coming to this city
about q years ago. They took up
their residence then on Pierpont ave-
nue., later erecting the home wnIcn
they had since occupied and where he
death occurred. Surviving her are
her husband and two children. John
McCool, Jr.. OF Brockport. n. y. and
Miss aKtharine McCool, OF this city.
One brother. Frank Busquet. OF Par
kersbTrg. and Mrs. Jane McElroy. OF
Bradford. Pa. also survive.
John McCool will arrive here today
from Brockport, having been summon
ed too late to reach here before ms
mothers death occurred. He was
here a few weeks ago.
Mrs. McCool was a woman Of splen-
did christian qualities. She was a
devoted wife and mother and a splen-
did neighbor. Her cheerful manner
and her readiness to help those who
needed help had greatly indeared her
to her family. and a wide circle OF
friends who deeply deplore her death.

be held on Saturday morning at 8
o'clock at ST. Peters Catholic church.
and interment will be made in Holy
Cross cemetery by Undertaken Jones.

THE ISSUE

The wet or dry" issue in Juneau cannot be met fairly and in Che open by uutruhoi attacks on Judge Jennings or by misleading the to Che law The question has been placed before the citizens in fair and simple manner. and probably the only way that would guarantee secret ballot The issuee now should be the simple and direct to whether the people of this city and vicinity should permit the saloons to continue or whether they should be voted out of eNis tence
 There are several special reasons why The Empire believes Juneau should not vote the saloons out of bus ness.
 In the first place. no provision has been maoe to supply the public revenues that they produce. The city tax levy cannot be increased beyond two per cent The laws of Congress control tbat-laws over which the Territory has been deprived of control
 Then. view the question rom any standpoint little would be gained by making Juneau dry while nearby towns are wet" On the other hand such condition would drive away many thousands of dollars annually from Juneau and would destroy many more thousands thas have been invested ia this city in good faith
 There is none Of the States which have recently gonedry that have not given those with their money invested in the lQuor business time in which to close out so as not to destroy their investments entirely Washington State gave them l5 months osher states have given them even greater time Aassans should be o.ir.

 Under ordinary circumstances the tone Of this aoco- mcn would assuredly carry convictions not necessarily the conviction that tbs couutry course was saiis'ac tory but at least Che nl conviction that Che iflenos sentiments professed were sincere.
 Unfortunately there is possibility that this stu dious courtesy in the face of proyoeauon which might be regarded as ustfyns rather strong reply may be nlsnterpre,ed u may be regarded as proof not so much of friendship as of weakness

A CORRECTION

In referring to the members of the House of Rep resta,ves who voted with the delegation from South eastern Alaska to permit the First Division to have 5 per cent of che proceeds from the Tongass forest that comes 60 the Tcrrtory The Empire neglected to include the name of Representative Thomas H. Holland of chitina Representatives Holland. Burns and Moran stood with the First Division the proposition that the First Divisions claim to ,he money was just
 The law provides that 25 per cent of the proceeds rom the forests be expended in the counties in which the forests lie. It has been held by United States treasury officials that because Alaska has no counties the proceeds from Alaska forests must be turned into the Territorial treasury and expended under the direction Of the Legislature
