CHARLES BENNETT
dies IN DETROIT
Noted Ball Player Of Years Ago
Passes Away at Home

Detroit, Feb. 25 LP-Charles E.
Bennett, 70, noted figure in
organized baseball of more than 40
years ago, died at his home here last
night following a long illness.
Bennett was leading catcher and
hitter of the old National league dur
ing an era when gloves and other
modern paraphernala was unknown.
He topped off his career by captain
ing the Detroit team to the world
championship in 1887. In recogni-
ton of his services, Bennett park.
former home of the Detroit club was
named in his honor.
Home Run Charlie" as Bennett
was known to fans, played his first
professional baseball with team in
New Castle, Pa, his home town and
later joined a Milwaukee team at a
salary of $3.50 month, which was
regarded asa munificent pay for q
player at that time.
In 1879 Bennett signed his first
big league contract with the Worces-
ter club of the National league and
displaced Doc" Bushong, until then
regarded as the star catcher of the
league. AS regular backstop, Ben
nett caught DR.. Richmond, the first
southpaw pitcher the league boosted,
and the battery attained much fame.
A few years later he signed with
Detroit of the same league and while
here perfected the first chest pro-
tector to be introduced in organized
baseball. The device consisted of a
pad filled with cork which was worn
under the shirt. The invention was
kept secret for a time and Bennett
created sensation by letting fast
balls strike him full on the chest
while the fans marvelled at his ap-
parent immunity to injury.
Bennett was sold to Boston in 1883
for $4,000, a record price at that
time. He was forced to quit the
game the following year, however,
when he lost both legs in a train
accident.
Of late years Bennett had been en-
gagged in the pottery business here.
