SOUNDS DANGEROUS

HIS BUGLETS IS PEEVISH

AT FIRST HE REGARDED HIS JAIL ER A8 A VALET, BUT NOW HE H0LD8 HIM AS A "HOODOO" SAVES HIS LIFE.

. Cincinnati, May 18. Bugs Raymond, the Rklllful but unappeased pitcher of the Giants, enjoys the unique distinction of being the only athlete who travels with a keeper. Owing to the prevalence of thirst in the make-up of the Bug, Manager McGraw has provided him with a Y;ecial attendant who follows his every footstep, and, by simple signs to the barkeep, indicates how many schooners are to be allowed to sail down the dusty gullet of the Bug. . The keeper Is a husky lad from the Bowery by the name of Fuller,' whlcl "is, tantalizing appellation. Bugs wishes he could get into the condition expressed by that name, but Mr. Fuller says that his cogomen Is for use in the city directory, and not ns a sample of what an athlete ought to do! 1 v Mr, 'Fuller has his troubles, and he earns his. hundred dollars a month only by hard labor. He does not leave ihe Bug for an instant, day or night. Raymond Is allowed to consume certain tall and foaming beakers, but Mr. Fuller Is the official regulator of the iiame.' When the pair approach a thirst pallor which h their usual destination when under way, Mr. Fuller is Keen to raise one, two or three fingers, defending on . the , progress of the thrist of Hie Uugr . When the allotted number has been consumed, he grasps his charge by the arm and leads him Quietly, but firmly, to a dryer locality. Fuller Steady Worker. Mr. Fuller is a steady worker. He cuts, sleeps and exists at all times in the exclusive society of the Bug. This is a strong man's job, and Mr. Fuller is a strong man. He has to be. He Is an old Pinlccrtoii man and the Bug Is up against some detective work when he trlei to elv.de his vigilance. At first the Rug greatly admired Mr. Fuller and - enjoyed his Hoclety. He looked noon him a a valet and was proud of the fact that he, the famoub Raymond, was the only athlete in captivity provided with such nn appendage. He liked Mr. Fuller so much that he even protected him from violence over In St. Louis the other day. In the course of their ramblings the Bug led M . Fuller to an old reeort of his where ware gathered a large number of friend' rf the Bug, husky and determined V- lows, .., surrounding a freshly-opened keg. Bug blew in and Introduced Vhfa ; keeper. Through the concrete Intellects of the friends pene

trated the Idea that Mr. Fuller was an enemy of freedom. But they did not wish to do anything rash, so they led the Bug aside, and their leader whispered huskily in. his ear "Shall we slug the bull?" Air. Fuller's safety hung for a moment In the balance, but the better feelings' of the Bug prevailed. "No, boys," he said, "he ain't no bad fellow. Leave him be." But the Bug Is getting tired of the steady companionship of Mr. Fuller. He complained yesterday to Manager McGraw about it. He said that he can tak9 care of himself and that Mr. Ful ler gets In his way and does not raise enough at critical moments. He said that he might Jump the rattler for Chicago and go to work in the print shop unless relieved from the espolnage of Mr. Fuller. He thinks that Mr. Fuller Is a hoodoo and that he cannot win a game of ball while Mr. Fuller is looking. But Mr. Fuller remains on duty and the Bug is still with the Giants. Both are in need of sympathy.

A FRAUD MARRIAGE

Is Charge Made by Mary M. Wenger Who Seeks to Have it Annuled. ALLEGATION UNIQUE ONE

Alleging that the marriage of Mary M. Wenger, nee Hartzler, to Emerson Wenger at Cincinnati on May 20, 1909, was not a legal affair, William H. Hartzler, father of the girl, has brought- suit in the circuit court to have the marriage annulled. Both parties are prominent young people. They separated soon after the marriage ceremony and the young wife has been living with her parents on North Sixteenth street. It is stated in the complaint, "the plaintiff says that in obedience to the persuasions and false representations of said defendant, she did on the 20th day of May, 1009, accompany him to Cincinnati in the state of Ohio, and that they then and there had a pretended marriage solemnized." It is further alleged that the defendant induced his wife to go to Cincinnati in order to avoid the Indiana laws, as the young woman did not have the consent of her parents, she being just sixteen years old.
