In Operation M Years
they had no recourse. This year It's
a bit different If a fine Is assessed
and a player thinks It, unjust, all he
needs to do Is to Jump to the Foils.
It's a grand little situation for the
player, tint think of —and symiitahize
with -the poor dears who officiate
as umpires. The worst they dare to
do to a player who wounds their feel
ings Is to chase those lellows from
the game. And that, In the eyes of
the players, la the best possible thing
tfat could happen to ’em
Don t chew tobacco, fire the sten

an argument with your wife, as a
means of relieving your IrrltahlcnMS

do a bit of promiscuous shooting. It’s
the greaest soother of frazzled nerves
known to science, :n the opinion of
Dr William B. Qulckaail, of Philadel
phia, champion revolver shot of the
world.
Dr Quicksall began shooting only
about four years ago. He took it up
for amusement first. I.ater he found
that shooting at a target seemed to
soothe his nerves.
“Whenever I came home at night,
feeling jerky and nervous, I found an
almost Immediate cure in getting out
my revolver and shooting about 50
shots with a revolver or pistol”
Dave Robertson, the slugging Giant
recruit says that the best method to
pursue in becoming a demon clouter
fe to “pick one out and bust It.”
Quite so. Dave. Rut this business of
picking one out, avey- what's the re.
, cipe for that?
This is a “Tim Hurst story that, is

"Tim" f shed a newspaper out of

"Huh” sneered "Tim," running his
finger down the column. “Ye have a
foine kick comin,’ ye has now. I see
j by these averages that you're r nitting
about .200”
Street was speechless for the rest
! of the game.
“Tim” always was a great little
person for carrying the latest batting
and pitching averages on his person.
The plan proved to be a great si
lencer for batters who kicked because
strikes were called and pitchers who
kicked because balls were called.

French Divorce Laws Are
Fairly Elastic; Pleas
Paris—The French divorce laws
are fairly elastic and among tne
many grounds for a successful plea
Is drunkenness Bus even in the
matter of persistent Inebriation there
are extenuating circumstances.
This week a woman asked the
court* for a divorce from her hus
band because he came home drunk
thrice a week. The husband defend
ed the case. He did not, as Is usual,
deny the facts, but put In the follow
ing curioud plea of justification:
“I ain,'' he said, "a traveller for a
champagne firm and am. therefore,
compelled to frequent cafe* If I did
not drink with possible customers I
should never do any business at all
Now my wife, for whom I have a
great affection, owns shares In the
firm I represent."
The husband went on to develop
hla defense ingeniously.
“If then,” he said, "I sometimes
rome home rather late and a little
merry, my wife instead of taking of
fense, ought to he delighted. My
state merely proves that I have been
working hard for her sake”

used to grant a divorce.

THE AUGUSTA HERALD, AUGUSTA. GA.
Why the Kaiser Was Suddenly Taken 111 and
Couldn’t Attend the Funeral of Assas
sinated Archduke Ferdinand
Beriiru— The truth of the Kaiser’s
FUddenly developed illness, which pre
vented his attendance at the assassi
nated Archduke Ferdinand’s funeral,
has gradually come to light. It was
Just one of those cenvenlent chills
which we all get when we want an ex
cuse for not doing anything. It can be
taken for granted that the most val
uable life in Europe is not in any dan
ger and when I saw Wilhelm riding
today he was looking the picture of
robust health.
The real inwardness of the situation
is, unmistakably, that the Kaiser, im
pulsively generous and noble-hearted,
snnounced his intention of proceed
ing to Vienna, but changed his mind
when the Ballplatz and the Hofburg
intimated that unrjalified privacy was
desired at the obsequesles. Other peo
ple aver that It was considerations
of safety in this hour of feverish Serb
r»salons which Induced the Kaiser’s
advisers to recommend his remaining
ih Berlin.
He will doubtless pay a visit of con
dolence to the aged Francis Joseph
before the summer is over.
Situation Intense.
The situation brought about by the
terrible tragedy of Serajavo is intense.
Nor is the anxiety lessened in politi
cal circles by the threatened abdica
tion of King Peter of fiervia, who Is
TO years old. Of course King Peter’s
Intention to abdicate was known long
before the assassination of the heir to
the Austrian throne, but the compli
cations are none the less on fnat ac
count.
King Peter suffers greatly from
gout and is almost deaf. He has had
several fainting fits lately and on sev
eral occasions could scarcely receive
bis ministers. He Is in the constant
care of physicians, and has just un
dergone a course of treatment at the
sulphur baths, without getting any
evident relief.
The statement that in the event of
the abdication of King Peter the King
oi Montenegro will also relinquish his
crown so that the two states may be
THREW HIS FORTUNE
AWAY UNKNOWINGEY
There's a Sore Man in Paris
Today—Threw Collection of
Masterpieces Away When No
Good; Now Valuable.
Paris.—T>r. Bil'ard, a moderately
wealthy practitioner in the Montmatre
is a sorry man today. Fifteen years
ago he had a fortune of about aquarter
of a million dollars literally thrown at
him and he did not kno wit. In fact
be unwittingly scorned his legacy. Ha
lit his fires with It, lie gave thousands to
his servant when ahe left him and the
maid used ths valuable material as
scrubbing cloths for the floor.
In 1897 the artist Toulouse
w’hoec least important pictures now fetch
thousands <>i francs, was unknown and
poor, so poor that when he left his lodg
ings in Montmartre he abandoned
eighty-seven pictures to this conciergo in
lieu of arrears of rent.
When Doctor Dillard moved into* tlie
artist s flat, the conciergo, who had piled
the canvass into a corner, asked him If
he cared to take his pick of them. The
doctor without much enthusiasm, chose
thirty odd pictures. The others the
conciergt exchanged for drinks with the
case keepers of the quarter.
The doctor did not even take the trou
ble to, bang the gift pictures on the wall.
He simply flung them pell-mell Into a
lumber room and forgot all about them.
One day his servant, thrifty woman,
suggested that Instead of buying wood
for kindling she should use the frames of
the pictures. * The doctor gave his per
mission. He also allowed her to employ
the canvases themselves as cloths for
scrubbing.
When some 3'ears later Ids servant re
turned to her native village in the Sa
voy. he allowed tier to carry off all that
remained of the thirty masterpieces to
share the fate of imperial Caesar—by
stopping a hole to keep the wind away.
Then within the last few years as tne
fume of the painter rapidly Increased,
and Toulouse-Han trees became worth
their weight in lrnnk notes, the doctor
began to see the extent of his folly. It
was finally brought brutally home to hlin
when the last of his thirty odd pictures,
which he had exchanged for a cheap
water-color worth a few dolkirs. fetched
$1,600 at a public salet
England’s Queen Dear to
the Heart of Her People
London.—Kngland may wait for gen
erations before she gets a queean so
dear to the hearts of her people as
Dowuger Queen Alexandra, the late
King Edward's consort. She now has
forged another link In tho chain of
loving esteem which binds her to the
people. In aid of the Queen Alexandra
hospital fund, thousands of women
sold artificial roses in the streets of
London. There was no demand for
the wares of the ordinary street flow
er sillers and her majesty noted this
fact as she drove through the city.
I Equerries wore sent out from marl
| borough House and with the aid of the
police a full list of the flower-sellers
who had suffered .by the Alexandra
l>ny competition was complied and
submitted to the queen. To each of
them she sent a dollar by way of com
pensation.

Abdication or Death.
In any case ,ne abdication or death
of King Peter is almost certain to
lead to internal troubles, for it is com
mon knowledge that there Is a very
large following of officers who are
attached to Prince George who was
compelled in 1909 to renounce his right
of succession to the throne in favor
of his younger brotuer, Prince Alex
ander.
Hut apart from these mors or leas
local possibilities, speculation is rifs
as to how the Servians will take the
Austrian demand that the inquiry into
the conspiracy against tne murdered
Archduke be extended to Belgrade and
that the Austrian political police be
allowed to “assist’’ their Servian col
leagues to get at the truth. That is
the question which is being asked here
and the usual reply is: “It depends on
Russia." In the German-speaking
< ountries there is a widespread belief
that, apart from the general reluctance
of Servians to oblige Austria, which is
a matter of principle and inherent in
the Servian nature, the Servian gov
ernment cannot afford to acquiesce in
a genuine investigation in Belgrade.
The government itself and the most
influential people in Servia, it is de
clared would be “si own up" in such a
way that Austria's next step would be
to demand wholesale withdrawals from
political and official life, such as Eng
land in vain demanded after the mur
ders of King Alexander and hts Queen,
There is besides the question of Ser
vian prestige. The key to the situa
tion is in St. Petersburg. Vienna is
for once in a way as bent on fighting
as Belfast, if it cannot get its way
without.
