Alone Twirled the Old loaton National! to Vlolory four Yaart In lueeestlon Radbourne's Great Rseord lome Sad Finishes. What becomes of all tbe great pitch ara who thrill tto baseball populace fur a day T Tttat depends upon Uie tilt In which they lived. If man won bin fame In tli period from twen ty to fortjr year ago he probably went back penniless to manual labor whence ba came, or else lie found au earl grave. Hu. tf lie was fortunate enough to make bta baaeball fame within the last aoore of Jours he uisy still be drawing a good salary from some club treasury. Or be may be enjoying pros perity aa a successful bualiieas man. A. U. Hjmldlng waa one of the few men who won nation wide fame ou the Ulnuioud In the earlier period, waa absolutely unwlled by It and then fol lowed It up wiiu even greater fame lu the biialuea world, Spalding Jumped Into the limelight ai a aeveutecn-year-old boy with the Itockford (III.) club way back lu 1S07. Talk about the en durance of the modem twirling glanU! Just consider whnt thla orlfilual Iron man did In the early seventies. Dur ing tlmt period be wna member of the Boston National, and ho won the league championship for bla team four yenra to succession, lie was Boston's only pitcher, and he twirled every game lite team played, though In those, days guinea were scheduled only every other day and the season wa ahorti i' f hit n It la now. Old timers love to dwell on the prow eaa of Churlc Iladbourne. who ahoul with quite a much brilliance aa Spald ing until coiiMimptUm cut short hla ca reer, about twenty-live years ago. Had. bourne waa a member of the Provi dence team, and when Char lea ftwee ney deserted that club In nildscasbn only Iladbourne was left for alab work, 'But that didn't bother Radbourne. for be not only 'Jumped right lu and did 11 the pitching, but made a new world's record by winning eighteen straight games and the champlousblp for Providence. Thla gameneaa. how ever, coat Iladbourne bla life, for his health broke under the strain, which was generally credited with having caused bla consumption. From day laborer to the world's pre mier pitcher and then back again, Is. In brief, the history of Amoa Ituele, who from 18S0 to 1804 thrilled the baaeball world. Ruale had a narrow escape from bring cast Into the utter darkneea of oblivion Itefore lie could get started. The Drat day he entered the big league be waa welched by Bancroft, the mnn agerof the Cleveland team, and round wantlim After wairhlng bltn pitch There Are Stores in This City ... .... . . So Good That They Could Use Twice as Much Advertising Space as They Now Useand Hake It Pay! TI1K 1WTTEK TllE STORE THE BET TER THE ADVERTISING PAYS. Your own observations in the store-world will, confirm this truth. x PUMJCITY is bad only for a bad pro position. It is just as surely good for a good . one. , ... What IS a "good store"? One that really SERVES THE PUHLIC, protecting its pa trons as to VALUES, not merely -as to PRICES. ' There are many stores in this city an swering, to that definition completely, lu every city there arc always some stores that , do not. ' An important phase of a GOOD STORE'S SERVTCE TO ITS PATRONS is its news ' , paper advertising. This should be complete, ; frank, informing. It should tell the store .news as fully as a good newspaper tells the news of the da v. .V; ' Perhaps the best possible NEW POLICY for the. OOODi stores of this citv to adopt , would be that of DOUBLING THE Al) VERTI SING , SPACE THAT THEY USE thus giving them "elbow room"; giving them bigger 6pportumties foretelling their patrons, in detail, about every selling event, u'Vmt every l)argaiii offering; about every dollars wortli of new stocks. Of course, even HALE ENOUGH ADVJ&mSTNO pavs the veallv 'good store; but ADE QUATE ADV Kl TIMING would pav much one game Bancroft let him go. Dot John T.

In 1889 Keef wen id no teen straight games for New York, while lo IKK) Clarkson pitched seventy-two games' for Ronton winning fort.v-als of them, These two men. whose exploits were heralded from one ejid of the country to the other, were radically different In tern pernmcnt Clnrkaon utterly ruined bla health by not taking proer care of hlmnelf and died In an Insane asylum Rut Tim Keefe retired with money lu the bank. Probably more printer' ink waa unciI to tell of the exploit of tha ec centric Kobe WaiMell Hian any other baseball player that ever lived Rube was always good for a story, do matter what be did On the diamond thla man waa forever breaking records, first In Jumping from one team to aaotber and then by making new strikeout rec ords.

About aa rare a bird, we imng lue, la tbe farmer who hss accumulat ed from the profits of bla farming op erations aufllcleot capital on wblcb to retire. Tbe prods of farming, of course, constantly cuplullxe themselves In the market value of farm lauds, and tbe rental value rises proportionately wltb the farm. A man may have taken a naif aoctloo of Kansas land thirty years ago and actually spent since then every net dollar It produced, yet now be able to retire In very comfortable circumstances. Indeed, through poor management be may never have made a dollar net on tbe farm. That particu lar farm may even be producing no more than It produced Uilrty years ago, and still tbe owner may be able to retire. It la true, therefore, that tbe number of retired farmers la no Indication of tbe amount of net aavtuga from farm ing operstloue. - Saturday' Evening Post INTERRUPTED THE SERMON. . -. , V ; I A Bseehee Fathsr and 8en Incident In Old Plymouth Church. Rev. Charles R, Brown lu tbe Con gregatlouallst relates an interesting Incident of tbe past in wblcb Henry Ward Ueecher. tbe fntnoua minister of Plymouth church, and his venerable and hardly less distinguished father flgured. Many years ago, be says, one of my friends was present In Plymouth church when tbe lucldeut occurred. It was In the days when Lyman Beecber bad come to make his borne with bla lllus- troua eon, and every Sunday be waa in the pastor's iw. One morning Henry vtsra ueecner was unfolding some as pect of tbe new theology, as be bad come to bold It, when suddenly up rose Lyman Beecber, saying. "Henry, may I aay a word Juat there T Beecber paused In bla aermon and. with a look of filial affection, at once responded, "Certainly, father; aay on." Then Lyman Beecber turned to tbe congregation and said. "Henry puta It that way, but It is not tbst way; It Is thla way." And he proceeded to state the truth as be saw it Heury Ward Beecber atood llatenlng to his father, wltb an expression on his face that blessed tbe listening, won derlng congregation more than many a aermon. And when Lyman Beecher had concluded be paid a beautiful trlb. ate to his father's Influence upon hla own life and then resumed hla aermon where he had been Interrupted. Emmet's Prseenoe ef Mind. A story la told of Robert Emmet which proves bis secretive power and resolution. He waa fond of studying chemistry, and one nlgbt late,' after tbe family bad gone to bed. be a wal lowed a large quantity of corrosive sublimate In mistake for.eome acid cooling powder. He ImmeVllatcly dis covered, bla mlatake and knew tbat death must shortly ensue. unless be In stsntly swallowed the only antidote, chalk. Timid men would have torn at tbe bell, roused all the family and sent for a atonracb pump. Emmet called no one, made no noise, but ateallnu down stairs and unlocking tbe front door, went Into tbe stable, scraped some cbalk which he knew to be there and took sufficient dimes or it to neutralise the poison.
