VIENNA, Feb. 5.-Reports Of births

slender, he is muscular and hard
with tremendous strength and ner-
vous energy for one OF his size. He's
peaceable enough at all times, yet
gives the impression that he might
be an ugly customer in a fight. His
has been no easy climb to fame and
fortune. He came up thru hard
school and he took many a hard
wallop on the way up. One rather
suspects he gave out a few, too.
Bancroft, prior to this season, has
been known as a wonderful fielder
but light hitter. If he were now
hitting less than 200 he still would
be a great asset to the club because
of the defensive strength he has i'm
parted to it. But he isn't hitting
under 200: he's hitting closer to 800.
To be exact, his batting average, &C.
cording to the latest figures, is .294.
Furthermore, his hitting, especially
since the Giants have been slamming
the foe with great and delightful
regularity. has been timely in the
extreme. He has driven in or other
wise advanced runners as one of the
most dangerous hitters on the cir
cult.

Dave Bancroft.

Shortstopping of kind rarely seen
on the Polo grounds or any other
field is being done these days by
Dave Bancroft, one of the bulwarks
OF the Giant infield and very
prominent participant in the rush
which the Giants now are making
toward the head of the league. The
manner in which this young man
ranges up and down between second
and third bases, occasionally flashing
over back of second base or into left
or center field, killing off potential
base hits, really is remarkable. He
is playing his position exactly as he
did WHEN a member of the Phillies
/ in 1915. That year Bancroft, a re-
cent product of the bushes, served
to raise the Phillies from just an
ordinarily good ball club to a cham
pionship combination.
Beauty" as the fans call him, or
"Peewee," as Frank Frisch calls him,
is quite Il fellow, on and off, to dip
into the parlance Of the drammer.
He's small and slightly built, with
sharp. clean cut features and a pene-
trating voice that fits in well with
his general makeup. Tho small and

tie at home, for having learned so
much from books, so little from life.
And with the thought that hence
forth he would amend his ways he
pushed between some laden trucks,
crossed the slippery, dirty street, and
drew near the yawning stairs that
led upward to dim regions in the
granite fortress.
About the entrance, half a dozen
rough fellows were neutrality-suspicious.,
obviously; deeD-water men, bearded
and uncouth. Bradford noted their
big sea boats, their pipes and jer-
seys, as they stood aside to let him
pass. He caught a few words in
Spanish-or was it Portuguese? All
this was good local color, thought
he. Some day he would do a spe-
ciai article about it.

Cowell had managed in some way to
get out and was lying near the en-

reached the top and was lying in n

Ormiston was still in the shaft. He
was quickly brought to the surface
but all efforts to resuscitate him
failed. No one knows how the two
men succeeded in reaching the open
air. One or both were lying partly
on Cowell when they We're overcome

feet square. While weak they are
making a good recovery.

Deep River he married Miss Eva

Rarely does it happen that the sense
of personal loss is felt by such a wide
circle. He was gaining rapidly in
the practice and the future held
much promise for him.

Effort to Save Another.

Special to Times Republican.
Montezuma, Aug. 1.-THE funeral
OF Mayor N. D. OrmiDton, who lost
his life when he went into the shaft
of the sewage disposal plant to res
cue Marshal Cowell, was held from
the home of Mrs. Ornltston's parents
at Deep River Thursday.
The body was taken, from Monte
yuma under escort of the American
Legion and Masons. in the forenoon.
All business houses In Montezuma
closed at the time and the fire bell
was tolled as the procession passed
thru town.
Rain early in the morning and the
threatening conditions at midday
kept many from attending from a
distance but hundreds stood on the
lawn In a steady rain during the
services. which were conducted by
Rev. L. H. Lanning. Eloquent
tribute was paid to the young man
whose life had been ended so tragi-
cally. Capt. J. w. Carr spoke briefly.
Al large number Of the members of
the American Legion were present to
pay their last respects to Lieutenant
Ormiston. At the grave salute was
fired and taps sounded as the service
closed.
The account of the tragedy has
been supplemented somewhat since
the first account appeared in this
paper. Marshal Cowell had been
: down in the shaft several times to
adjust the valve regulating the flow
from the. sludge chamber. At the
chamber. cleared it appears that gas
followed, and on the last trip he felt
the effects of the gas and started to
the top Of the shaft which is about
seven and one-half feet deep. He
reached for Mayor Crmiston as he
neared the top, but was overcome
and fell to the bottoms and the mayor
then went down after him. He too
was overcome before he was able to
help the marshal. Then Shook went
down and he too was overcome at
once Before Shook went into the
shaft he gave call which was heard
