PROVED TO BE DUD
Nothing Came From Heinie
/ Zimmerman's Baseball Bomb.
to Find Crookedness in
National League Fruitless.
BY HENRY L. FARRELL.

New York. March 5.-Heinie Zim-
merman's bomb turned out to be
somewhat of dud.
With the exception of some sections
of the AMERICAN league that would be
glad to see a little dirt in the National
leagues back yard, the conclusion
from the former Giants expose was
more like a pop gun than a big Ber-
tina.
1t seems that every one knew about
it but the public.
John McGraw, manager of the
Giants, it develops. knew that Zim-
norman had offered Toney, Benton
and Kauff some money to throw a
game within a few hours after the
tender was told. They told him
themselves and Zim's "banishment'
followed.
In Sam Antonio. RUDE Benton ad-
mitted without hesitation that Zim-
norman offered him a bride but he
said it was $500 instead of 500.
Il just laughed and walked away
from him. He told me after the game
was a fool to turn down easy mon
ey," Benton said.
McGraw remarked tersely that the
tale of man, dishonest by confess
sion, should be ignored.

Jest AS ItWz
AtRe heayter'
By Ii.

AT THE GRAND we have show called
''Nightie Night" tho why no one who at
tended last night could make out. The
scenery does not include bed or bed
room. The only suggestion of going to bed
was in the pajamas in which one Of the
women ran about thru most of the action
of the piece. ''Nightie Night is now on
its way back to New York and it looks
as if one two of the cast had become
hasty and had fled on before, their places
being filled with either UNDERSTANDS or
new people. Several times last night they
forgot or delayed the cues and stammered
over some of their lines.
1t is one of those farces that depend on
clever people to put it over. The fun is
not in its lines but in its situations and
when the actors are awkward or green
the situations are not funny. Possibly
the fact that a very poor house greeted the
cast when the curtain went up may have
had something to do with the inclination of
the members to exert themselves.
The play is here again this evening ano
for a matinee this afternoon.

WIDE RANCE IN II
Freight Business Varies Dur
ing Last Year.
Some Show Increase, Others a
Decrease.
SLUMP IN COAL SHIPMENTS
Santa Fe Handled Six Per Cent
More Last Year.
Farmers Begin to Market Grain
Crops Now.
SLUMP IN COAL SHIPMENTS

Freight business done by the rail-
roads during the present year shows
some figures of wide variation, both as
to decreases and increases, in the COM
parison of 1919, 1920 and 1921, SO far
as the year has progressed.
The freight traffic movement on
the Santa Fe, for 1920. aggregated
1,511, $50 cars of freight loaded on the
system, and received from connec-
tions, an increase of 6 per cent over
the 1918 totals Freight loaded on
the system was 1.153,0S2' cars, COM
pared with 1,O7S,234 in 1919; received
from connections, 55S,568, as COM
pared with 34S,190 in 1919. Coal
3,572 and lumber 3,S51. Stock ship
ments decreased 1873 cars. cold
storage 4,125 and oil, 423.
Total for 1921 Is 166,9O6 Cars.
Total loadings on the Santa Fe for
1921 up to date were 166,906 cars,
compared with 205,924 cars in 1920,
a decrease of 10 per cent. Loadings
for the third week of the month of
February were 23,999 cars a decrease
of 20 per cent, compared with the
loadings of 29,99S for the same week
year ago.
Grain loadings have shown an in
crease, however, there having been
loaded during the present year. to
date, 14,363 cars. as compared with
12,225 cars up to the same date a
year ago.
Increase in Grain Shipments.
This increase in the grain shipments
is credited to the delay and reluctance
of the farmers to start the grain
movement at the time when it usual
ly occurs.
The Rock Island reports a decrease
in freight cars handled during the
present month, in the first fifteen
days of 6.S96 cars. The Rock Is
land has handled 46,91O cars during
the first fifteen days of February, as
compared with 53,S06 cars handled
during the same period of 1920.

TWO SCHOLARSHIPS AVAILABLE
Pennsylvania Railroad Calls Attention
to Courses for Children.

Notices calling attention to the
Frank Thomson and the John Clark
Sims memorial scholarships available
to the children of Pennsylvania rail-
road employees, are being posted or the
bulletin boards over the entire Penn
sylvania system.
There are two Frank Thomson
scholarships available this year.
amounting to a yearly sum of 5000
each. They were created in 1907 by
the children of the late Frank Thorn
Son. formerly president of the Penn
sylvania railroad company, in memory
of their father. These scholarships
were designed to give the sons of liv-
ing and deceased employees an oppor-
tunity to secure a technical education,
thereby better qualifying them for
employment by the Pennsylvania rail-
road system.
- In all there are eight Frank Thorn
son scholarships for a period of four
years each. Two of them are awarded
each year, and entitle the successful
candidate to select the university, col
1ege or technical school which he de-
sires to attend, subject, however, to
the approval of the railroad company.
The competitive examinations are
conducted by the college entrance eX-
animation board of New York City,
during the month of June, and en-
brace subjects corresponding, in gem
eral, to the entrance requirements of
the scientific departments of the
higher class universities. colleges and
technical schools.
The John Clark Sims Memorial
Scholarships were created as MEM
orial to the late John Clark Sims, for
merly secretary of the Pennsylvania
railroad company, and for many years
a trustee of the University of Penn
sylvania. Two yearly scholarships
were established in the University of
exrlxy in Mt h0
from tuition fees. One of them is
available to persons nominated by the
trustees of the university, while the
other is open to competition among
the sons of living or deceased en-
ployes of the Pennsylvania railroad
system. The examinations for these
Scholarships are also conducted dur
ing the month of June, but are under
che rules and regulations of the Uni
Versity of Pennsylvania.
