. On day a trtanf wbo wm plaluly
a bis last leg etaggered Into tb vll
kmc of Scottsvlll and dropped down
In th street la front of Iba tsvern.
Ba wn carried Into tha hostelry and
doctor aant for, and In two days be
wss dealt Tha vsrdict at tha Inquest
waa tbat ba bad dJad from sickness
nd exposure.
Whan tb coroner overhauled tha
dead wajfarer'a pocketa be found lot
r eimpi things and a ticket In a
Prussian lottery. Tbla ticket waa In
tn envelop and bad been kept clean.
It waa for a quarterly drawing
tbat would not take place for nine
weeke yet. and according to It face
It might draw a prlie of X-S-OOO. No
on In BcottsvUle bad ever seen such
ticket before, and very little waa
aid or tbonght a boat It for three or
foar da ye. or until a certain New York
drummer ram to town on one of bl
trips, n waa appealed to for Infor
mation, and bia reply waa:
.rWelU I gneaa yea. Tt boogh I
them myself, tbongb I't never bad
any lock. Why. Pv known four dif
ferent men who bar drawn fortune
In tbat lottery. It'a backed by the
Prussian government and la aa good
aa forty national banks."
The drummer created an Instant ei
citement about tbat ticket. It atarted
right In aa a main topic of converse
tlon and held the place. Then a light
nlng rod man cam along and offered
$100 cash for It. II knew three aien
who got their start In life by draw
log larre soma In tbat very tottery.
Three days later a bog drover ram
along and made an offer of t"JVk for.
the ticket According to his story,
on of toe members of the beef trnst
got hla first 11.000 from tbat very lot
tery. Then a tin peddler offered his
whole oorflt for the ticket, and the
town of Scottsville began to boxx.
Of a sodden tbe landlord of the tar
em demanded possession of the ticket,
to have and to bold until the debt to
him had been paid. A tramp had died
la his bouse. Fie bad put In a bill to
the fownsfor JS. but on thinking It
over had concluded that $100 waa llf
tl enough. Tbe coroner waa an hon
est man. but be might get drowned In
the mill pond and the ticket soaked to
a pulp.
The carpenter who bad mad the
Ave dollar coffin Jumped bis claim to
130 and demanded that he be protected
by baring the ticket turned over to
htm. The sexton followed inlt. The'
doctor In tbe case who bad sdmlnls
tared only on doa f medicine bad
not made out bla bill yet. but when
he did If would b for at least $TO
It was a case tbat bad bothered bim.
and be couldn't afford to. be bothered
for laaa than half a hundred.
Then cam a day when ScottavlII
waa almost a wept off Ita feet and left
gasping for breath. - Along came a Mr
Jones, a cattle and bog buyer. H u
no old sport, but be knew a good
thing when be saw It H alwaya In
Tested In tbat lottery He bad bought
tnat ticket In the city. He bad lost
It on tbe road, and a tramp bad found
It He must be banded bis property
or there would be such a row as tbat
part of the etate bad never beard of
air. jonea was a good bluffer, but
wnen it came to taking an oath he
faltered and was run out of town
men there came a deacon of tbe
church from a village a few miles
away. He came In humility and
shame, but still be came HU rltliigr
wanted a new church building, but tbe
members of tbst particular faith were
poor In purse. It bsd worried tbem.
but It worried the deacon worst of all
He bad figured every way be could,
but could see no light until be saw
in advertisement of tbat lottery. He
turned to It as s saving clause. lie
.sent money and g-t tbe ticket. It was
against hla conscience, and be told
noDoay or it. Whatever money tbe
ticket drew wns to be freely given to
th erection of tbe new rburrh This
was no doubt the true story of tbe
ticket, which bad been atolen from tbe
deacon'a bouse by tbe tramp, but bad
It been ten tlmea true it would not
have been banded over to him.
The day before th drawing, wben It
did not seem tbat th excitement coo Id
go higher without exploding some
thn.fr. th drummer snd the lightning
rod man returned Tbey bid sgalnst
each other for to ticket. Perhaps
they understood each other, but tbelr
facea war very grave aa the bidding
topped at $700. Then a bug bonfire
had to be built to relieve tbe atraln
Few alept tbat night, and next day a
pabllc purs wss made up to send a
messenger to th city for newa of th
drawing. He didn't take th ticket
with him oh. no! That would be tak
en later on by a crowd of honest and
determined men. eacb one armed to
be teeth
At the end of the third day tbe'mes
engr returned. He was cheered. He
waa assisted from the stage with ten
der hands He was assisted to mount
a barrel, and tbeo the crowd fell away
and waited for bla words He calmly
looked about him and then calmly
eald:
Teller -oMns. Tbat re ticket" -
Thirty seconds of swful suspense.
"That 'ere ticket didn't draw s dnrn

On wild, long drawn yell of disap

Peplta wss a Usxlcso girl living
with an aunt In southern California
Peplta was sn orphan aud had luher
Ited a pati-b of ground, on which the
two lived. Near by waa another ilex
lean family consisting of father, moth
r and on son, ttnriqu. Just coming
of ag. Enriqu and Peplta. being
neighbors and tber being no other
young mn and women near, by to di
vert tbem from each othr, naturally
loved.
On day a man waa aeen digging la
a patch of ground adjoining Penlta'e
property. He waa an American and.
though roughly dressed, gars evidence
of being a gentleman. . Seeing Peplta
atandlng looking; at him curiously, be
wnt over to wber ah waa and ask
ed for a drink of water, peplta got
It for him from a aprlng back of tbe
bouse, and tbe stranger chatted with
her. 8b asked him wbst be wss dig
ging th hoi for. and he said be was
prospecting. Tber bad been no bunt
ing for lb precious metal there, he
for, and Peplta did not understand
what b meant.
Th atranger cam over occasional!
after tbat for a drink of water or to
borrow something. He aald hla name
waa Thomas Burkbalter: tbat h was
th son of a gentleman In the eaat
II hadnt got on well with his father
and had com out west to shift for
himself. Peplta thought him very
Una. After looking at bla whit face
Enrique' brown visage waa nut at all
attractive. Enrique noticed a chance
la her, bat waa at a loss to account
for It. .
Ono day a man cam to Uurkbaitera
holo. H waa a well dressed man and
worn a dla.oiood stickpin Inula neck
wear. Peplta aaw him sn itm-s.
halter standing together talking and
looking over at her house. The strsa
ger went away, and that evening
Bnrkhalter came over to see Peplta
6b aaked btm about th man who bad
visited him. but Burkbalter wss un
commonlcativ oa tbe subject. One
thing Peplta uoticed-tbst be wss very
"' ana aererentlal to her.
Bnrkhalter during tb next four or
flv daya did aa much courting as Is
usually done In months, sometimes In
years. He quits carried Pepits off her
feet 8he discovered ' that Enrique
knew nothing ui all about making love
lunriqu waa much distressed. What
could ho do? But Enrlqu bad more
ens than IVpita nod knew a little
mora , about the ''world, though not
mocb more At any rate, b bad aense
enough to suspect that Burkbalter bad
aom motive in devoting blmseir to
Peplta. H went to an old rancher
who bad alwaya been kind to him and
told him bla trouble. On day Euriqu
went to Urigsby, tbe rancher, and told
bim tbat Burkbalter bad askrd Peplta
to marry bim
Tbat'e all talk."- said Ungaby.
"No. no." cried Enrique; "tbey ere
to be married tomorrow. Peplta does
not wish It so soon, but tb msn In
slsts. Mb would Ilk to rats a little
money no tbat ab may get aom nw
clothe to make her appear worthy of
so line a husband."
urigsby thought H waa
something over la bis mind
b said:
"If Peplta la going to be married
she will not need her farm. What anv
needs Is a lift I cash. I will boy her
property. Go and ask her for what
ah will sell it But ssy to ber tbst
I will not bny It unless she keeps my
offer a secret. Too msy tell ber I
will give her $000."
Enriqu sorrowfully bore tbe mes
sag and returned with Peplu. wbo
was delighted to jet so- much money
for what was really not supposed to
b worth more tbsn half th amount
offered. Grigsby drew np th papers
conveying tbe property to Enriqu
and placed a mortgage on It payable
to himself
"Now." be said to Peplta. "yon may
tell whom you Ilk tbat yon bar sold
yonr fsrm."
In tb evening Burkbalter cam to
his fiance snd asked ber If ahe
would be ready for tbe wedding tbe
nxt day. Peplta aald sb would and
gleefully told 'him ab bad sold bsr
property for tb enormous ' sum of
$600. Then she showed bim tb money
sbe bad got for It
H stood looking at her with a blank
expression. for som time, then told
her to- put her nam on th back of tbe

often a court of resort upon which
Judgment of a player la based. Just
thluk wbst one's opinion of Walter
Johnson would b If one scsnned

Walter Johnson hss lingered smuug
tb American leaguers aud based bis
opinion of Johnson on tbos srersges

Walter brok Into tb big abow
during tb season of 10U7. Mine that
tlm b has been successful only once
In gathering mor victories In any one
season tbsn loss. A perusal of tba
records of 1910 will show tbst tbst
wss tbe only year In which Johnson
glided above tb halfway mark.
In tbe four years In which he bss
steamed tbe spher over the rubber for
Washington b baa gained a higher
average than tbat of his club. Even
In 1009. tbe year of tb big burricsue
for Washington, which resulted In tb
demise of Jo Cantlllon as a ni.ijor
league manager and In a final a vera ire
of .270 for Waahlngton. Johnson won
thirteen ganio and lost twenty die.
which gave him an average or M'i.
To paaa from Johnson's Individual
prowess, it Is Interesting to contem
plate what effect a winning club will
bar upon a pltcber'a fame and bis
placa In th hearts of tb fans
Imagine for a moment wber Jonn
son would rank If placed with a team
which finished one, two, three. Im
agine bow that pill would look to tbe
opposition as It sailed over tb plate
wben Johnson had th confidence born
of repeated victories. Imngln the tov
of a high class club playing behind a
pitcher whom vry club held in uw
Bom people bar even goo so far
aa to aay that Johnson never would
los a gam If connected with a poo
nant winner. Of course that's absurd
Tb mere presence of a man of tbat
caliber in tbe box la half tba victory
Around the Waahlngton club's bench
any day that Johnson Is scheduled to
pitch one can hear th. pluyera ssy:
"Well, there's nothing to It today.
Walter la going to pitch." Those play
rs go out on tb Held expecting to
win, take cltancaa wblcb they would
not Inks with a less reliable man In

The opposing manager gets a buncb

"W noed help, mother, but I fear
the old man la hardly able to work

"I reckon there's som work In me.
replied tb stranger. "Anyhow, I got
