OBITUARY-HIRAM TAYLOR

OBITUARY-HIRAM TAYLOR
"The steps OF good man are ordered
BY the Lord and He delighteth in bis
ways"
Hiram Taylor died at his home in
township Of Waterloo, January Ia.
1928, after an illness of but three
days of the dread disease pneumonia.
He was born in Boice Greek neighbor-
hood October Is, 1850, and there grew
to manhood.
He was married to Miss Bessie
Chase March "a, 1875. They had two
sons, Eldie and ATtie, who survive to
mourn with their mother the loss of
kind and indulgent father, faith
full husband and their best earthly
friend. There also survive two sis
tiers, five brothers and nine grand
children.
Mr.. Taylor had resided all his life
in Grant county. He was ever a law
abiding citizen, an obiging, pleasant
neighbor, an upright, God-fearing
man, doing his duty. No matter where
the days found him, or how long and
full were the hours, or how humble
the service, his work was we'll done.
His kindly greeting, his genial pres
ence, and his glad services will be
missed by an entire community which
sorrows with and for the stricken
widow and the family in this sudden
bereavement. We have no doubt that
in his last extremity the dying bed of
the good man was made soft as
dOwny pillows are" by the presence
Of the Master, whom he had long ago
accepted as his Lord and Saviour.
There was a large following at the
funeral Mr.. TaylOr's friend, Rev. j.
A. Jamison of Beetown, preaching the
sermon. Interment was in Boice
Prairie cemetery. Mrs. Taylor and
the sons are profoundly grateful for
the manifold kindnesses bestowed,
the sympathy and respect shown to
them and their loved husband and
father.
THE pains of death are past.
Labor and sorrow cease,
And life's long warfare
Closed at last.
His soul is found in peace"

College Station, Tex, March TO-
With only four letter men back for
baseball and the reserve supply con-
sisting only of last year "fish" ma
terial, and with Jupiter Pluvius hav-
ing protested his disapproval OF
spring practice most effectively, there
is no definite information Of an
optimistic brand to be given even at
this late period on Texas Aggie dia-
mond prospects this spring.
Great confidence however, is being
placed in the ability of Coach II. III.
House, the new member of the A.
& NJ. staff. As A. & NJ. has consist
emily dropped baseball championships
to the Longhorns the cry for a full
time baseball coach at A. & NJ. grew
louder and louder until Mr.. House
was employed as assistant football
coach and baseball coach last fall. He
has had an experience which recon-
mends him for understanding the col
lege man in sport and also enjoys an
enviable record in professional base
ball and at least he is expected to get
more from the material available at
A. & NJ. this year than has ever been
procured in the past.
"Pat" Olsen, of Clifton, the Aggie
twirler with powerful arm, who
was laid on the shelf last year be-
cause of developed illness, after
he had won in sensational style two
early games, is expected to settle
down under the coaching regime of
Coach House and assert his best
ability. With him will be liking"

a little bit late in getting to the

The other two letter men making
up this years nucleus of team
are Bugs" Morris at shortstop and
"Pete" Wilson at second base. All
other places will have to be filled
with new men, none of whom has

Even Collins Has Been Made LOd

Eddie Collins is generally regarded
as one of the brightest players in the
major leagues. He richly deserves that
distinction, because thinking quick, is
always a part of his play.
However, it is possible for the best
of players to be tricked and made to
look foolish. But it takes an equally
keen player to turn the trick.
Recently Collins was asked by IN
inquiring reporter if he had ever been
made to look foolish on the ball field.
Often" replied Collins, "but to
Iris Speaker goes the credit of show
ing me up in the worst possible way I;
yet in being shown up was playing
safe, conservative ball. The umpire
was the villain.
at was this way. ! was on Sec
ond, another Sox player on first and
one out. The batter hit a fly ball to
short center field which 1 figured
could be handled by an irfielder and
would be ruled an infield fly. For
that reason j held my base.
"The umpire, however, failed TO
rule infield fly. Speaker trapped the
ball back of second, then dashed in
and touched me standing on the base,
then touched the base.
81 had remained on second and the
other runner held first, believing the
hit had been ruled an infield fly. II
wasn't so Speaker touched me stand.

souper rounding to and was pitching
to batters Saturday.
The general opinion in the Giant
camp on the "Rube" Benton business
it concerns the Giants insofar as
the "Rube" use to be cne-is that
Benton has cause for a. deep griey-
ance if President Heydler of the Ma
tional. League keeps him out after
lands cleared him of all faint. The
point nobody can figure. out is how
Heydler can decide to keep Benton
out after he had put it up to Lands
himself to judge whether the "Rube"
was the right sort to be in organized
baseball or not.
