some will really applaud men who
distort the facts to make it appear

of the same name, which will be
presented at the Caughren theatre,
Sank Centre, Thursday afternoon and
evening, Oct. 18, under the auspices
Of Naomi Chapter, Order of the East
ern Star, is attracting wide spread at
tention and increasing interest. OF
course the focal popularity of the
author, no doubt has had much to do
with this favorable sentiment, but
the story is well worth while on its
own account.
? "Bill" Carmody, first the Broadway
bum and rounder leaving home and
sweetheart under a cloud finally lands
in a northern lumber camp. How he
overcomes his thirst for booze, and his
fight up manhood's ladder, inch by
inch, is bound to hold the attention on
the screen as it does in the book. Mr.
Hendryx has the faculty of putting a
red-blood punch I'M his stories that
appeal. But aBill" Carmody is not
the only character in the book. Beau.

J. B. Hendryx, the Sank Centre

story. After listening srapturously to
the numberless queer happenings that
have afflicted different Fords around
this city, he went out in his own lit
tie machine, determined. to; sacrifice
it, if need be, for the sake Of his. art.
He was accompanied only by Chas.
Virgin to whom he did not confde his
plans and who never would have ven
tured out had he surmised the, devilish
intentions of his host. After the
evenings hunt (merely ruse) they
started home on the Westport road
at a goodly pace, with lights, con
again, off again." Rounding the we'll
known accident curve" about three
miles out Of town, at the rate of 40
knots an hour, the gentlemen suddenly
found themselves biting the dust with
much enthusiasm, while thrill after

ONLY ONCE IN CAREER DID NAP RUCKER
 GET PEEVED BY AN UMPIRE'S DECISION

BROOKLYN, N. r.. Feb. 23.-G Napoleon Fucker, the once famous southpaw of the Brooklyn team, has kindly disposition, and during his long and brilliant career as q major league pitcher he was never banished from the game by an umpire for kick ing on decision.
 But there was one occasion when Nap would have liked to string a cer- tain National league umpire to the limb of q sour apple tree.
 In game played at old Washington park a number of years ago. Fucker was on the threshold of establishing new National league record for strike outs, but was prevented from achiev- inc the feat by q rank decision on the part of this certain umpire
 The game was between the Brooklyn team and the St. Louis Cardinals Fucker had wonderful control over his knuckle ball on this day with the result that when the ninth inning ar rived he had fourteen strike outs to his credit
 In the final inning he famed the first two players and equalled the old strike out record. Rucker curved the first ball over the plate for the next batter. The next ball was fouled off After wasting two balls. Nap shot a slow teaser up to the plate which broke right in the grove According to Nap it was one of the most perfect strikes he ever pitched.
 He was almost dumfounded and could have been knocked over with a feather when the umpire called it ball. thus depriving him of new strike out record.
 That was the first and only time that l was ever really sore at an um- pire,2 said Fucker. If I remember
