pRINDLE, the clerk in the Auditor Gem
40 erals Office who stole $1,000 while
Charles A. Snyder was his chief. has put
in no defense and will soou be sentenced
for his crime.
His arralgnmcnt for trial was delayed
q long time, 1t is said. IN the hope that he
would refund the money. He has no money
and no one has come forward TO advance
II for him. He must now take his punish
meDt.
But when Brndles defalcntion was dis
covered Mr.. Snyder made light Of it, He
said that fully $500,00 had been taken
from the State funds in the past BY men
who wished to use It, and that it had all
been returned without any one being the
wiser. He seemed to regard it as a proper
proceeding. 1t was all right for men who
had the custody of public money to use it
for their own profit provided they paid it
back again before the state needed it.
1t had been supposed that the lesson oS
the Quay pros" .ution had been enough TO
put stop = ths sort OF thing in Harris
burg, but It IS becoming apparent that it
was not.

"DREAMINo TRUE" IN IRELAND

EROM the official standpoint it was IL
= shadow - the Dali Eireann which
elicited the intense interest of civilization
in connection with the Anglo Irish Treaty.
To the unrecognized republican PRrlia-
ment OF Ireland Britain looked for aid in
the establishment of new autonomous
state in the empire. The shadow was the
determining factor in in0ugurating a new
epoch.
The substance-the ParlianN Nnt of South
ern Ireland. specifically authorized by the
Ireland Act of l020-provides the unsen-
,sational anticlimnx. Il is distinctly set
forth in the treaty that ratification of that
instrument will not be conclusive without
action by that body.
Approval has been unanimously accorded

sent, and compliance with the requisite
technicalites necessary for the formation of
The provisional government has been duly
manifested.
II was the Dali. however. which made the
vital decision Britain 30 regarded the

ilcxibility Of tcmperamcnt lacking for so
many years in her treatment Of the Irish
problem. II is no mean task for an Eng.

duced the Ireland of realities. The legal.

HON IS LUCKY FAN
St. Louis Fan Who Solved The Witt Pop Bottle Affair, Gets Seats For Worlds Series.

Chicago, Oct. 2.-James P. Hon, a salesman of St. Louis, is the luckiest baseball fan in the world. While thousands are scrambling for world series ticketsaHon has been given a complete set by Ban B. Johnson, president of the American league, ac- cempanied by 8 personal check for $100 and round trip transportation be- tween St. Louis and New York.

Witt was so badly injuHd that he had to be carried off the field and great indignation was expressed country. Several rewards were offer ed for the identification of the sup posed thrower of the bottle.
 Hon. who happened to have seat near the spot where Witt was injured, solved the mystery when, in letter to Mir. Johnson, he explained just low the accident occurred. The latter said Witt, while running, stepped on 1ne neck of the bottle causing it to bounce up and strike him on the head.

HANS GIVE CREDIT
 TO JOHN J. M'GRAW
Admire Him for Bringing To- eether Aggregation of Champs

New York, Oct. 2.-New York fans always have admired the generalship of John J. McGraw. manager of the Giants, and they give to him without stint full laudation for bringing to- gether, in his devious ways, an ag- gregation Of the present two-time champions, but none Is remiss in praising Hughey Jennings, Ma poleon's chief of staf"
 Hushey is now considered q genu- inc New Yorker by the thronss that filled the Polo Grounds nearly all season. Two years ago the rabid followers of the Giants were little frigid to Jennings when he moved his baggage from Detroit and trans planted his grass picking habit and his stirring "E-yash' from Navin Field to Harlem.
 There was much talk then that McGraw was preparing to retire for the active management, having &C., quired part ownership in the club, and some of the fans were skeptical, notwithstanding the record Jennings made with Detroit, winning pennants there in 1907. 1908 and 1909. Mo- Graw kept on but Hughey disproved that old adage about 'too many cooks"
 Jennings was not total stranger to the older organization. In his ac- tive days he played with Baltimore Brooklyn and Philadelphia in the former place with McGraw when the latter was the best third baseman in captivity. Like McGraw Jennings was an infielder, playing second base and sh ortstop.
 Hughey is a native of Pittston, Pa, where he first saw the dark of a coal mine. He trotted out as profess sional 20 years later, beginning with the Louisville, Ky. club, at first base and short, going to Baltimore in trade four years later. In 1898 he was shifted to Brooklyn and in 1891 he became generalissimo of the Phil adelphia Nationals.
 Two years later Jennings returned to Baltimore, then in the Eastern league, remaining there until 1907 when Detroit drafted him. He be- came manager his first year and cele- brated by winning the pennant. This season was his 18th as a team leader.
