Carlin, Parker, Dumler Have Signed, Along With Others Whose Identity Will Not Be Disclosed at Present.

(By Tort.) Every day Manager Jessup of the "ftlchmond baseball team receives application from baseball players who want berths with the local club the coming seaaon. The little manager lo receives inquiries concerning the reorganization of the Indiana-Ohio league. The management of the independent team which represented Munie last year, desires to place an I.-O. Jeague club in that city this year, and It is quite probable that a franchise will be awarded th,at town. Manager Jessup the past few weeks has been quietly at work signing up jplayers for this season's team. It Sdll be pleasing news to the fans that the team is almost completed. Dnmler, the big, fast first baseman I the All-Kentuckian team, who was kne of the best guardians of the initial bag seen hero last season, will 3iold down first base for the Quakers, i Parker, who heljd down second base for the local independent team last fall und who played for Portland during "the I. O. league season, will be at secumd base. Parker is by far the best 'second baseman. Manager Jessup could Jiave obtained, and he will be a tower vt strength. Parker is both a clever ffielder and a hard hitter. At third base. Tommy Carlin's smiling face will be seen again. The few weeks Carlin played with the locals last season he made a big hit with the fans and he will be royally welcomed back. For short stop Manager Jessup has a clever player, well known to the Richmond fans, under cover, but as jet he is not prepared to announce Ills name. In left field one of the heaviest hitting and fastes. players in the I.-O. league last season, has assured Manager Jessup that he will be hero tor the coming season. This player is claimed by another team and for the present his name ia withheld. When Jt is announced the fans will wear the smile that won'tc ome off. The reliable foxy, and hard hitting Huclc Weaver I1I be seen again in center. The right fielder has not yet been signed. For this garden a man will be selected who can play the outfield and alternate with Manager Jessup back of the fcat. The pitching staff has not been ntirely selected, but Manager Jessup lias a number of promising candidates to select from. "Nat Fleming", who la wintering here, will be one of the pitchers, and it is probable that big Oene Moore will once more wear a Quaker uniform. So far, the Richmond team looks especially strong, particularly in the hitting department, where the club last season was lamentably weak. FORJIMOTHY HAY JVIets With Ready Sale on Local Market.

Sporting Notes. Arthur Irwin, the well known baseball manager, is likely to manage the Montreal club in the Eastern league next season. He has been in consultation with Frank Farrell. of the New York Americans, who also controls the Montreal club, and it is rumored that he will pilot the Canadians through the 190S campaign. Jimmy Gardner has received offers from Philadelphia to box Jack Rlackburn and Terry Martin next month. He will accept the bout with Martin if the latter is not too havy. Charley Dooin of the Phillies, was Fred Glade's receiver at St. Joo in 1901. Rhudy Hulswitt, of the Hods, was the Missourian's shortstop that season. Manager Bill Armour has notified Shortstop Eddie Frank, late of Toronto, to report at Toledo in March. Bonesetter Reese has fixed up Frank's shoulder nicely. Roger Presnahan. catcher for the New York Giants, received a telegram from McGraw stating that McGraw is going to Toledo to hold a conference with Bresuaban. It is said McGraw has a deal on with Cincinnati for Presnahan. and desires to find out ;what Presnahan will do if traded. Ned Hanlon has secured Lee Hafford. who was with the Hoosiers two years ago. He also has retained Jack j Knight, third baseman, formerly with the Athletics and the Boston Americans. Denver Ed Martin, the colored heavy-weight, wants to get back into the fighting game. It is stated on good authority that J Denny Sullivan, the former MiuneI apolis baseball player, who played ! with the Boston Americans last year, win not be with that club another season. Battling Nelson has declined a fight with George Mrmsic. the Chicago light-weight despite the fact that Morai sic was willing to fight him at 133 pounds weight in at the ringside, and I also made him a side bet of $5,000 on jthe result of the battle. Memsic j waited for two hours in San Francisco

CHILD PORTIA Chicago. Jan. 4. A little nine-year-old Portia appeared before Judge Newcomer at the Harrison street court osterday. In less time than it takes to tell it her childish plea had swayed the opinion of the court, had brushed away all the arguments of the prosecuting attorney and won her father's freedom, notwith.-tanding the-fact that lie had pleaded guilty. Edward Weils, forty-five years old. 1720 Indiana avenue, admitted the theft of three brass iournals from the Illinois Central railroad. "I had to do something to buy food for my family, your honor," he ; aid. "I knew it was wrong, and I am here to take my punishment. I have been out of work for some time and mv wife is 111." i Judge Newcomer did not appear! moved by the story. j "If you had used half as much zeal in looking for work as you did in stealing from the railroad you probably ' would not be here tod?y," he said. "I will sentence you "

Then the Child Interrupted. Here the jtidge was interrupted by a childish voice. He stopped, looked down over his desk at the face of the tiny girl. "Mr. Judge," she said, "this man you are saying those things about is my papa. Please don't rend him to jail. I know he never will steal again. My name is Essie, Mr. Judge, and I am nine years old." i The child moved up another step to her father's side and grisped his hand, encouraged by the attention accorded her. j "I will make that promise for him," j she went on. -After this I will go with him and he In him hunt work. I j will keep him from getting discourag- j ed and win keep him from being tempted to steal. j "Mr. Judge, I know you wouldn't sea4 him to jail if you knew how poor j

we are. My mamma is sick at home. We only live in a basement. I have a little sister at home too. And 1 was the only one who could come here to help papa." , Silence Was Eioquent. When the child stopped talking one could hear a pin drop in the courtroom. The judge's eyes grew moist. The big bailiff brushed his eyes and turned his back to the court. "Essie, you have made one of the most eloouent arguments I ever heard," said Judge Newcomer, breaking the silence. "It" I let your papa go this time do you thin!; you can keep -iim from ever stealing again? I will grant your plea, I will turn him over to your keeping." "Thank you judgp." returned the child, who had not lost her composure. "I will go home with him. I will teach him how wrong it is to steal. You never will steal again, will you, papa?" The big, rough-looking defendant took the child in his arms and burst into tears. Still holding her he blurted out thanks to the judge and left the courtroom, the child clinging about his neck.
