WON'T BE KIDDED
Heinie Zim Ignores Reference
to His Famous Race.
He Refuses To Remember Dash
With Eddie Collins.
BY LACK .VEIOCK.

New York. April 29.-HlayerS Oh
both the Giants and White 1Sox teams
will tell you it wasn't all Heinie's fault,
but that doesn't make any difference
to the fans.
Yes, we have reference to that now
famous episode of the 1917 world $
series, when Heinie the Tim hotfooted
it down the third base line after Ed
die Collins, gripping the pill firmly
in one mitt while Eddie crossed the
plate with the run that dashed Giant
hopes into the depths of despair.
He Took All Blame.
After it was all over somebody
asked Zim about the play, and he very
manfully took all the blame, despite
statements of some of the players
themselves. But that one play will be
remembered as long as Fred Merkle' s
failure to touch second. and all be-
cause it happened in a worlds series.
Had it occurred in an ordinary, every
day game of ball it would have been
forgotten, and that's the rub.
When the Giants started their eXhi-
| bition tour in Texas this spring the
bugs of the Lone Star state greeted
Zim the first time he stepped to the
platter to bat against an outside team.
And the greetings had to do with Ed
die Collins.
He Won't Be Kidded.
Evidently Zim expected it, and,
strange to say, he failed to show any
of the fussy stuff for which. ne has
long been noted. He merely ham,
mered the plate with his budgeon and
! proceeded to slam out a home run.
When the National league season
opened Zim expected a verbal bonn
| bardment. And he got it. What's
| more. he will probably be a target for
lots of kidding during the present sea-
son until the novelty wears off But
Zim may play better ball for all of it.
He has made up his mind that no fan
is going to take his mind off the game.
and he has his eye on the National
league batting championship for 1918.

And rends the schedule game of ball

MRS. CASE OUT on BOND
NOW Up 70 GRAND JURY.
Caso Against Former Domlng Woman
Considered Serious El pasoan
70 Conduct Defense.

Santa Fe, Feb. 27.-lIrs. R. H.
Case, who killed her husband with a
shotgun on February 2lst, at their
home on Manhattan avenue, has CIV
en- bond to appear before the grand
jury, which meets March 8. 1t was
announced that she would appear be-
fore District Judge HoIlOman today
on a charge Of murder, but late on
Saturday afternoon q preliminary
complaint was sworn cut by District
Attorney J. II. Crist before Judge
Reed HollOman charging Mrs. Case
with murder, and the woman imme-
diately waived examination. The
court thereupon fixed her bond at
$4,000, which was furnished by W.
J. Rand, Of I'll Paso, brother q Mrs.
Case, at 10000; by c. O. MardOrf,
Of Santa Fe, who offered property 10
the value Of 5000, and BY }. how
ard Vaughn, Of Santa Fe, Tor oOb.
Mrs. Case is still at a local ani-
tarium and is rapidly recovering
from the shock Of the ordeal through
which she passed.
There are many rumors in cireu-
latiOn today. Some Of them are 70
the effect that the defense viii be
able to offer strong evidence o. q
struggle between Mrs. Case and her
husband before the fatal shot was
fired. II was umored that blood
had been found on Mr.. Cases shoes,
and on the soles Of his shoes, tending
to show that he had been standing up
before he was killed, or at the time
the fatal shot that blew out bis
brains was discharged.
AS far as can be ascertained, The
district attorney still considers che
charge against Mrs. Case a serious
one. It is rumored that the prose.
cutiOn holds the theory that Case was
killed while he was lying across the
bed, with the right side Of his face
on the covers. That the entire chaIgI
Of the shot entered the head Of th'
dead man is said to be the theory o.
those that maintain that Case wa,
lying down when he was killed, as I
is said there were no shot marks OF
the covers Of the bed.
Additional interest to the tragedy
was lent by the arrival here on Tom
Lea, formerly mayor Of FL Paso, ani
a well known lawyer. He has beer
in consultation with Attorney A. r
Renehan and It Is rumored that h,
may be engaged with Mr.. RenehaI
and former District Attorney A. N
Edwards to represent Mrs. Case.
