EARNINGS OF BALL PLAYERS

It makes some young fellows rest
less to learn that few high lights
of baseball are valued by the teams
holding contracts with them, at from
100000 to 100000. The fellow
who can play a smart little game
himself hates to settle down in a
humdrum occupation, when there is
the possibility of earning big money
Yet a lot of very fast players, not
SO much inferior to the top rank,
earn only from $500 to $4,000. And
to get this, they have to sacrifice
their very best years, the time when
thew should be getting start for a
life time.
The fellow who quits baseball at
30 to 35, is Is years behind the boys
that he grew up with. He feels out
of place to begin at the bottom in
any calling. He is handicapped by
lack of business experience, and in
a great. many cases makes failure
of it.

former army lieutenant, was found gull
ty by jury late Friday Of the murder

and a ragged stranger" and sentenced
to 25 years in the penitentiary. The
jury reached it's verdict after % hours
and 10 minutes deliberation
While he was waiting for the verdict
to be read Wanderer showed the first
signs of emotion he has displayed dur
ing the 26 days of his trial He was
plainly nervous, but as the sentence,
which Prosecutor James C. OBrien
later denounced as "travesty on JUS
tsce", was read, smile broke over his
face and he recovered his composure.
Mrs. Wanderer was slain on the night
of June 81 at the entrance to her flat
when her husband engaged in what was
at first thought to be a fight in the
dark with an unidentified man, who also
was killed. Wanderer at first said that
the stranger had tried to hold him up,
but after his arrest made confession
which he repudiated at his trial in which
he declared that he had hired the poor
fool' to stage mock holdup so that he
could get rid Of his wife and return to
the army
Wanderer testified that his confes-
sion was obtained from him by physical
violence and his attorneys introduced
evidence to show that he was insane.
