\\\ y/7
In these turbulent days in the baseball world, whence the dove of peace has flown and the war eagles screecn
their triumph, there is one owner who views the future with uutroubled eyes and says with e serene smlk, "I am an
optimist. You can't kill The Game." So declares Hurry N Hempstead, the president of the New Yoric National
Baseball Club, the title or the corporation which pays the bills of the far famed Giants. He regrets the quarrels
and acrimonious words of last year, but feels the American "fans" will be faithful to their love for diamond battle*
and says that the 1910 season will find baseball better than ever.
HARRISBITRft STAR-INDEPENDENT, FRTDAY EVENING. APRIL 2. 1915,
I timekeeper tor Johnson, Otto Flota, of I
Denver, was named fav Willard.
Willard and his followers are so CIIII- j
fldent of the victory of the challenger
that they have planned a triumphant |
entry into the ("nited States of the |
"new champion" a few days after the
battle. They expect to make a tour
of the principal cities of Cuba on April
6 and 7, if Willard's condition per- 1
mits, and then go to New York by way i
ol Key West, stopping at various places
en route. Willard expects to be the!
principal figure at a great reception in !
Madison Square Garden. Later, he j
says, he will make a trip around the
world. His plan is much like the one:
made by Jeffries previous to his de- j
frat in Heno. lie has *0 particular plans
if he should lose.
Willard says that lighting is a busi-1
ness proposition with him, arid that he!
bears no enmity toward his opponent, j
He says he will enter the ring calm and '
determined to win. because he needs
the money and knows he can win it in'
the prize ring.
Johnson, too, says he has lio hard
feeling for his opponents and woull
like to be on friendly terms with nil
of them before ami after his fights. He
boxes because there is mouev in it and
not for the love of fighting. As the
I champion expressed it, a man looking
for a fight can get it on the street,
I "'and a licking, too."'

MAN AND $6,000 MISSING
Bank Decides Messenger San Away
With Cash
! Tarrytown, X. Y., April 2.—Robert '
G. Abercrombie, president of the Irv-|
ington National Bank, said last night.'
that evidence unearthed yesterday
showed dearly that Edwin Wood, thej
trusted messenger of the bank who
disappeared Wednesday with sti,ooo in
cash which he had obtained from the
Yonkers Trust Company, had not met
with foul play but had made a get
away.
The proprietor of the Pabst Hotel j
telephoned him yesterday afternoon f
that a porter had found in the wash-1
room an empty bag which tallied ex-1
actlv with the bag Wood had when hi'
left the bank.
Abercrombie also stated Wood had
changed the denomination of the money ,
he was sent for. He was ordered to
get a lot of stiver, but, instead, asked !
for large bills, which would not be
bulky.
There is no further clew. It is pre-j
sumed that Wood boarded a trolley car
at Yonkers. rode to the Pabst Hotel in
upper Manhattan, where he got rid of
the bag, and then boarded the sub
way. Pinkerton men and the New
York police are searching for him.
