FORGOT DESIRE TO QUESTION Chairman's Reception of Would-Be Interrogator Somehow Discovered » the Rest of Them, At New a political meeting in a certain South Wales goid-mining dis trict the chair was taken by an ath letic miner. The candidate his speech was much interrupted hootings and rough chaff, and ing indignation. Smothering wrath, however, he paditied “boys” by assuring them that at the end of the candidate's speech they should be at liberty to put any tion they chose. Accordingly, at the end of the harangue he arose and in quired in stentorfan tones and in a rich Irish brogue: “His inny gintle man a question to alrsk?” A stout little Welsh miner, who had been a conspicuous disturber of the of the evening, shuffled slowly up the steps of the platform. But at the top he was met by chairman, who, without the slightest warning, delivered a terrific left-and-righter, and sent the Welshman sprawling on his back ‘Now,"” roared the chair man, “has inny other gintleman a question to airsk?’--and there was no response, the Negligence Called Manslaughter. The Stehr vs. before the supreme court of Nebraska in- volved the sentence of a father for from one to ten years in the peniten- tiary for criminal negligence, because during a blizzard in Nebraska, when the weather was bitter cold, he per mitted the fire to go out, snow drifted through a crack in the door and a broken windowpane and the bedding of all the members of the family was frozen stiff The feet of of the children were frozen, and although such fact was apparent to the father no physician was called in for sixteen days, when amputation was found to be necessary and the child died of blood poisoning. The defendant was convicted of manslaughter for crim fnal negligence In falling to provide medical care after he discovered the frozen condition of child's feet. In affirming the conviction the court held a paremt having special charge of infant child culpably to neglect it that death ensues as a consequence is manslaughter, al though death or grievous bodily harm was itended, and has not the means for the ture it is his duty to apply lic authorities for relief case of State one the that for an 80 not if the parent child's nur to the pud cll Made a Difference. “Darn those cats!” “Don’t shoot, Abner. 1 think tralto ve ia our tabby.’ ton 3 « sh +3 I) the one with thie COND jee Washing Herald “This “What They pudding this quick lun Means of Advancement hyvaalf ”y ti thysell earnes All a Apply yi) whether it be small or achievement of years | days —Simor of many its Usual Way. ll came rather The ly.” “Oh. n y!

' SOME NERVY PLAYERS Bresnahan Praises Men Who Can Deliver When Needed. Substitute Catcher for Chicago Cubs Praises Frank Schulte, Outfielder, and Heine Zimmerman, Slug ging Third Baseman. In baseball there are two kinds of nerve, according to Roger Bresnahan, Cub catcher. One is pos- on the fleld, has a weak heart when he is asked to go to the plate in the ninth inning with a man on third and drive home the run that will win the game. The other is the player who refrains from pugilistic tactics, but has a heart of steel, takes a viselike grip on the bat and grits his teeth when the responsibility of scoring a run is put up to him. Bresnahan declares the first is the easiest to beat in a game and the sec ond is the fellow who makes compe: tition keen all the time Bob Bescher, left fielder of the Cin- cinnati- team, struck Bresnahan because the fielder struck out pinch when a long fly or a meant a victory. It was while cussing this episode that defined the two kinds of baseball. “There are two kinds of nerve In this game,” sald Bresnahan, “and I profess to have only one. I'll admit Bescher took a solid punch at me I stood for ft. There may be a lot of fellows playing ball today who .can trim me off the fleld, but when it comes to matching brains and nerve during a game I think I can hold my own with anygsof them “Bescher was up in the ninth in. ning in a pinch, when just a little sin- gle would have given the Reds the game. He was aware that it was up to him to rap out the hit that would turn the tide. But he was as nervous as a cat. 1 joshed him about it and he took it seriously. That was how the argument started. That was ex actly what I was looking for, because it won the game for me. He struck out in the pinch and that was what made him angry. “Frank Schulte is about the best example of the man with the nerve in & pinch I know of in the league today in a Bresnahan nerve in Roger Bresnahan. You never see Frank argue or dispute with any one, nor you never heard of his having a battle on the street. But you have seen him go up to the plate with runners on the bases In the ninth inning, smash out a single or extra base hit off the best pitchers in the league and win the game. He Is the type uf man to have on a team "Heine Zimmerman appears to be extremely boisterous and rough, but he is a corking good man In a pinch He is too arrogant to have it sald that he lost his nerve, and it is just that bit of pride that makes him so great a player.” Leading Hitters.

Chicago fans are practically unanimous that the palm should go to Ray Schalk of the White Sox and they have much company in other cities. They consider the problem an easy one. Some critica have appeared to dispute the right to the honor of the young backstop corralled by Comiskey recently I watched Wallie Philadelphia Athletics y in the series with the Naps and with all due respect to Schalk I think Connie Mack has bagged the biggest young catcher, all things considered, | the major leagues,” sald a Cleve | land scribe | “I have seen Schalk in several se | ries and | also have been in a position to. watch the work of Schang in a bit ter series in which Cleveland was bat- tiling Philadelphia with the clubs in first and second place. Schalk is just as good a receiver as Schang, but 1 think this young catcher of Mack has the edge on the Chicago backstop in speed, in throwing and batting—im- portant considerations in a catcher” While some fans and critics are in- clined to be prejudiced in favor Schang of the! closely Cleveland is ia of such stars as Schalk and Schang, it is Interesting to know what scribes and fans of other cities think of these players when they are visiting hostile | camps. The work of Schalk has stood out the opposing catchers on other teams in the recent whirl of Comiskey 'sgath- letes around the eastern circle. His great plays at times were so thrilling as to draw spontaneous applause from a crowd rooting for the visiting club's downfall Following is the opinion of an ob server in Boston, after watching Schalk in the series between the world's champions and the White Sox recently “1 have seen all the catchers in the American league this season and 1 think Schalk is head and shoulders above the whole lot. In getting down in front of the plate for bunted balis have never seen his equal. His throw ing Is accurate, his receiving a delight to see.and his batting surprising. He seems as quick as a cat in tagging unners at the home plate and also seems absolutely fearless” These two opinions of Schalk, ex pressed by critics outside Chicago show how highly this young catcher is rated even by those who give Schang the shade in a comparison of the work of those two young stars Chicago fans have had little opportu nity to judge of the relative merits of young catchers. They are strong for Schalk and chances are few White Sox fans could be found who would give any other catcher in the world the edge over the former Mil waukee phenom purchased by Presi dent Comiskey last fall for the ree ord price of the season paid for a out these BONEHEADED PLAY BY COBB | “John Andersoning” Was Only Ex. | cesded by Catcher Henry's Forget. | fulness and Foor Work.
