GEORGE ]. GOULD
DIES IN FRANCE
CAPITALIST DIES AT MENTION
AFTER BRAVE FIGHT
AGAINST ILLNESS
One Of Six Heirs of Jay GouId's
$4,000, 900 Estate, Director
In Many Railroads and
other Enterprises

Mention, France.-George ]. Gould
died suddenly at his villa here at 3 :20
q m. Wednesday.
The American capitalist had been
suffering from pneumonia. With him
at the end was his wife, formerly
Alice Sinclair, whom he married Sc
cretly last July.
Although SO years Of age, Gould
had made brave, lingering fight
against his illness, passing the crisis
six weeks ago, at which time 1t was
hoped he might recover.
His death came, just before dawn,
with unexpected suddenness.
George j. Gould was one of the six
heirs of Jay Gould, who left $40, 000,-
900 estate at the beginning of the
twentieth century, when such for
tune was unprecedent. AS eldest son
he had a principal part in settling the
estate, from which arose constant
wrangling among the children. AT
times his brothers addressed him
formally and brought constant sue
cession of suits, dissatisfied with their
incomes, which between 1901 and
1907 averaged $75O,0O0 each annually.
In 1886 Gould married Edith M.
Kingdom. He was a director in many
railroads and a prominent yachtsman.
Following the death of his first wife,
Gould married a well known English
actress, Mrs Alice Sinclair.
Besides his widow and her children,
Gould leaves as heirs his son, King
lon, and six other children by his

, But perhaps her mind Is set on a wide
brimmed hat If so let her consider the
lovely pattern In fine straw, faced with
crepe and bearing unique trimming
Of butterflies (made of feathers).
If the sagacious bride is considering
hats that will prove useful after the
wedding, the lovely model in hairbraid,
with chiffon roses set against the
crown, is likely to prove her choice.
The upper brim edge Is outlined with
little ruffles Of picot-edged ribbon and
the same ribbon makes background
for the chiffon roses.
Another hat that will appeal to many
brides is malines-covered shape with
applique Of narrow braid and scarf of
malines about the crown. Ostrich droops
from the side In cascade of lovely
color.

SEVERAL CLUBS
CLOSE Up On
GIANTS
Standing Of Teams Does Not
Support Theory Of a
Runaway Race.

NEW YORK, April 26.--The world
champion Giants return to the Polo
Grounds today for the local opening
of the National League season, NOV
ing at a pace so consistently smart
as to prompt baseball men to express
the fear that they will be ''cake
walking" by July and hence make
a joke of the race. That would be a
bad thing Tor baseball, as even the
Giants themselves must realize.
However, the present standing of
the clubs does not support the
theory of an impending runaway.
The Giants have been fattening at
the expense of the weak -kneed
Braves and Dodgers; yet the Cubs,
showing plenty of early speed, are
right up there with the champions
and the Reds and Pirates have as
sumed contending positions, as ex-
'pected.
All OF the Western entries have
been throat-cutting each other while
the Giants were making merry in
the East. Perhaps there will be less
reason for forebodings when the
schedule calls for the first Of the in
tersectional meetings.

M|TCHELLHANDS
YOUNGSTERS
ADVICE
Braves Pilot Warns Against
Attempt to Throw Every
Ball Past Batter.

BOSTON, April 2e.-This is the
advice which Fred Mitchell, man
ager Of the Braves, passed out to
youngsters who want to know the
secrets Of successful pitching:
pitch every ball with the idea
in mind that II it's q good one 1t
may save the game for you-and
that IL it's a bad one, 1t may lose
the combat. You must have in
mind a definite purpose and q
definite reason for every ball you
pitch. Never let over confidence
menace your chances. No matter
how far your team may be in the
lead, always keep in mind that the
other outfit can rally-unless you
keep pitching your heart out or
until the last batter has been re-
tired.
Don't try to throw every ball
past the batter. Frequently it is
a better thing for you to let man
hit and take a chance on your
teammates retiring him than 1t is
for you to throw your arm out
trying to shoot the bali past him.
But whenever you throw ball
for the purpose Of letting the bat
ter hit it be very sure that you
don't throw it in such way that
he can meet it with all his force
and perhaps knock it out Of the
box.
IAN arm is a mighty asset for
any pitcher. but always keep in
mind that the difference between a
great pitcher and a poor one is not
determined so much by the power
in the arm as 1t is by the courage
in the heart and the guidance of
the BRAIN"

HOMERS AND HOLES IN ONE
ARE LOSING THEIR THRILL

They used to say that the great.
est thrill that comes in a ball play
ers life is to hit out a home run
with the bases full. Last year
eleven players in the American
League, and nine in the National,
did the trick. When it becomes as
common as that the thrill is pretty
we'll gone.
1t is much the same with the
golfer. 1t used to be an event in
his life when he made a hole in one,
but this, too, has become such an
ordinary practice that few give him
q cheer besides his caddy.

PUBLIC PARK TENNIS
SPREADS TO ANTIPODES

The Municipal Park tennis idea
is rapidly gaining favor in Australia.
At Adelaide a special championship
prize has been created for the park
land players. Every club that plays
on the park courts under the con
troll Of the city council will conduct
Its own championship. The win
ners Of these club tournaments will
then compete in the park titular
tournament, the winner to be ac-
claimed champion and be accredited
with leg on the new trophy.
