MADE OF RUTH'S EYE, BRAIN AND MUSCLE

Babe Ruth, world's greatest swatter of baseballs", has become a matter of interest to science. He cas just undergone some interesting tests at the department of psychology at Columbia University that scientists, who have little interest in the mere playinjf of baseball, might make a study of him as a human machineiams took second on a boar three to six months of age. Mary Martin of Fountain City, and Charles Meyers of Cambridge City took first and second respectively on the sow, three to six months "age class." Both are pig club members. In the Hampshire class, the best boar, age 12 to 18 months, was that of F. H. Pardieck of Richmond. Great satisfaction was expressed Thursday by breeders who had participated in the show, many stating that the results had exceeded their expectations. All had realized that the late start had seriously handicapped the show and many had very slender expectations of any numer ous entries as a result. Several who were showing Wednes day stated that they had not received their premium lists until one or two days before the entries were due to close, and had to enter by telephone in consequence. Yet, in spite of all difficulties, enough swine was brought to the park to make an exhibit of which all are proud. The entries were not brought to the park without difficulties, however, judging by the reports from one of .the breeders, whose wagon upset tn a ditch at the side of the road. The wagon box was full of hogs destined for the exhibit, but fortunately it turned completely upside down, imprisoning the hogs. Passing motorists assisted the owner to get back on the road, so that he reached the park with no further mishaps and with no harm to his passengers, excepting possibly the nervous shock. As little judging was done Wednesday, most of the interest centered around the horseshoe pitching contests, in which Harry Moss, a 14-year-old boy, living a mile northwest of Richmond, was the outstanding figure. Onlookers gathered to watch his work In the games because of the unusual records he made. "He is good for a ringer every other throw," said the referee. Moss and his partner, E. V. Stamback, of 2119 East Main street, Richmond, won the championship of the morning tournament. EATON WOMAN VICTIM OF ROBBER'S ATTACK EATON, O., Sept. 15. Serious injuries were sustained by Miss Mary Mitchell, 50 years old, daughter of Frank Mitchell, when she attempted to stop a robber who had gained access to her house early last evening. The intruder struck her several times on the forehead with the butt end of a revolver. Miss Mitchell heard the man coming upstairs in the house and thought it was her father. She spoke to him, and the man appeared at once in her room, saying be had "come to kill her." Miss Mitchell struggled with him for several moments. Finally she broke a window and screamed for help. The robber left at once, running across the street to the Methodist church, where it was ?aid by neighbors he was met by two men. No trace of the men has been discovered. Sheriff George Jones and j Marshal Willard Armstrong went to (Hamilton, Thursday to examine two suspects who had been held there. Up to a late hour no word had been received from them. According to an ordinance passed by Chicago, privately owned automobiles painted red will not be permitted to travel the highways. Interference by red cars with fire department activities is given as the reason for the new ruling.

might test his power of muscle and speed of brain and eye. For the tests Ruth was connected -with two devices. One recorded the exact time of his home run swing from the time he started it until he met an imaginary ball. The other device, by means of straps about his torso and electrical connections, recorded the

depth md tfmfTier of his breathing. Then Ruth was seated before a battery of electric lights and asked to press a telegraph key each time one of the lights flashed. The flashes and pressures were recorded on delicate instruments. The result showed that Ruth's muscles responded to the sight impulse, transmitted throngh the brain and nerves between 10 to 20 per cent faster than the average person's. Which shows why Ruth excels in picking the right ball and then lacing it over the fence. SINCLAIR, OF AKRON, SPORTSMAN, KILLED (By Associated Press) AKRON, O., Sept. 15. Harry Sinclair, 40, Akron sportsman, was shot to death early today while returning from Cleveland with two women and another man in an auto. The shots were fired from another car which had been following the Sinclair machine. Mrs. Lotta Friddle. Miss Louise Friddle, her sister-in-law, and Russel Smatters, who were in the car with Sinclair, are being held as material witnesses. Marshall Friddle, husband of Lotta Friddle, was being closely questidned by police. He was found at home in company with his wife's sister, police say, when detectives sought him for the purpose of questioning. Local K. of Ps Attend Greensburg Meeting Several Richmond members of the K. of P. lodge attended the celebration of Greensburg lodge, Wednesday at Greensburg. Many prominent members of the K. of P. lodge of Indiana were present at the meeting. Local men attending were E. P. Kepler, William Hodapp and E. R. Bolander. Alvin Hiatt, of Lynn, also at tended. The principal speaker of the evening was Supreme Chancellor W. A. Ladew, of New York. The grand council held a meeting at Greensburg and made plans for the coming season. Many big stunts are in view. AUreda Hadley Baker Succumbs at Chicago Word has been received here of the death of Mrs. Alfreda Hadley Baker, which occurred" at the home of her sister in Chicago, Wednesday night. The body will arrive in Richmond Thursday. She is survived by her husband, Russell Baker, mother, Mrs. Harry Sastmeyer, and two sisters, Mrs. Floyd Laverty of Richmond, and Mrs. Roy Wheeler of Chicago. Funeral arrangements will be announced later. Famous Owner of Circus Forced Into Business The name of Adam Forepaugh, so well known to followers of the circus world, became the important factor it played in that sphere through accident rather than design. Years ago, Dan Rice and his circus were known throughout the states. Rice joined with a partner, and the Rice & War ner circus enjoyed success for some time. Then hard luck followed them, and theyt were plunged into a period of financial depression. The show stranded in Philadelphia. Adam Foreback, a Philadelphia butcher, had been given the contract to furnish meat for the organization, and, when money was not forthcoming to meet his bill, sought council of an attorney. As a result an attachment was secured. Rice and Warner held a consultation. They decided that the bottom had fallen out of the circus business. So they turned over to Foreback the properties and paraphernalia of the circus in settlement of the claim. With this material on his hands, Forepaugh could do but one thing. He started out as a circusman. Foreback was changed to Forepaugh, a name that became a household word in America and which remains one today. . ft

ADVERSITY BUILT PILGRIMS' CHARACTER; CONSECRATION TO IDEAL BROUGHT VICTORY

By OLIVE ROBERTS The University of Montana "Next to the fugitives whom Moses led out of Egypt, the little ship-load of outcasts who landed at Plymouth are destined to influence the future of the world." James Russell Lowell. When an American of today read that volume which was written three hundred years ago, William Bradford's History of Plymouth, he is apt to wonder how he would conduct himself if he were placed in a situation similar to that of the Pilgrims when they decided that they must leave Holland. But he knows very well that neither his own early training nor that which he is giving his .children is conducive to the development of the most distinguishing characteristic .of the Pil grims absolute consecration to an ideal. Persecution, imprisonment and their own desire and determination to secure religious freedom had taken the Pilgrims to Holland in 1607. There they had been safer and happier than in England, for at that time Holland was more advanced intellectually than any other country of Europe, and under the House of Orange religious freedom was granted alike to Protestant, Catholic and Jew. But though the Pilgrims admired the Hollanders and enjoyed their "faire and bewtifull cities, flowing with all sorts of wealth and riches," they regretted that their own children were destined to lose the traditions and language of England if they remained in a foreign land. After long and prayerful consideration, the forefathers decided that their love of God, their dream of civil government based on Republican equality and the preservation to posterity of their bwn customs and ideals were dearer to them than peace and safety in Holland; in 1620, therefore, ! they undertook a second and a greater exile. How many of us, for the love of God and loyalty to an ideal, would have the courage to part forever from the comforts of civilization, leave many of those who were dearest to us, take a dangerous and seldom tried ocean voyage, and make a home in the wilderness in short, voluntarily go into exile? When they arrived in America "they had no friends to welcome them, nor inns to entertain or refresh their weather-beaten bodys, no house3 or much less townes to repaire to, to seek for sucoure." Five months after landing, the Mayflower returned to England, leaving on the American shores only 49 of the one hundred and one passengers who had" landed, the others having died from exposure to the hardships of life in the wilderness. The Pilgrims did all of these things and did them cheerfully, bravely, uncomplaining. It did not occur to them that they were martyrs, because their matchless faith in the goodness of God to those who did His will caused them to believe that all things would work together for their good. In mentioning the indifference of the Pilgrims to material comfort and prosperity and their decision to cross the ocean and settle in the wilderness, Bradford writes: "But they knew they were pilgrimes, and looked not much on those things, but lift up their eyes to ye heavens, their dearest cuntrie, and quieted their spirits; for they had other work in hand, and another kind of warr to wage and maintaine." We are apt to think of the Pilgrims as a severe, stern people, strictly vir tuous yet, lacking in the gentler qua! ities of the Christian character, but let us recall a well known instance which proves that forbearance, pa tience and tenderness were their strongest characteristics. In. November, 1621, only a year after the Pilgrims had landed, a ship bearing 35 new colonists arrived. Not one of them had tools, food or clothing other than for his immediate needs. Yet the forefathers shared with them a3 brothers, and as a result there was not a time during the next two years when they were not in great need of food and clothing. The Pilgrims showed what their standards of character were when they chose their elder, Mr. William Brewster. He was a Christian gentle-j man who had gladly sacrificed social; position, suffered imprisonment, and' gone into voluntary exile for "ye! "Kingdome of God and Religion's Sake." Bradford's description of his life long friend is most satisfying. "In I teaching he was very stirring and; moving the affections; also very plain ! and distinct in what he taught, by the j which means he became the more! profitable to his hearers." Of Brewster's sympathy and kindliness Brad-
