CHAPPELL G0, ADVOCATES ~ UNIFORM ~GONTRACT Its Adoption by Major and Minor Leagues Favored by Na- tional Basebdll Commission—Announcement Follows Decision on Manning’s Claim Fdr Salary. Cincinnati, Jan. 10—In reversing a deciston of the national board of minor leagues here today, the national base- ball commission gave notice that at its mesting in Chicago next Thursdey it would advocate the adoption of a uni- form contract for both major and min- or leagues. The case today was an appeal by Player Manning from a decision of the national baard. The latter had refus- ed his claim for salary against the York, Pa., club of the Tri-State league from June 1 to the end of, the Tri- State season. Manning was injured in a champion- ship game, and after coming from the hospital was suspended by the York elub for disability. A stipulation in his contract held that the club was only bound to pay him for one month fallowthg his release from the hospital. The commission held that in case the <club did net release the player outright | at the expiration of a month it would be ferced to pay him the salary, as it was against the spirlt of the national agreement is suspend a player for dis- ability when that disability was sus- tained en the ball field. Player Man- ning was declared a free agent unless the York club pays the player the de- mands asiced for within ten days. i Phe commission then stated that umiform contracts alone would elimin- ate this evil. Princeton’s Athletic Officials Retained. Princeton, N. J, Jan. 10.—Announce- ment was made here today by the board of control of the University Ath- letic association that Keene Fitzpat- ric, the 'varsity trainer, and Willam J. Clarke, the baseball coach, have both | signed contracts to remain at Prince- ton. Clarke, whose three year contract expires at the close of the coming sea- | son, signed an agreement to remain here for another five years, but the length of Fitzpatrick's term was not made public. Clarke was formerly a member of the New York National league team, while Fitzpatrick came here from the University of Michigan. Dartmouth Has 25 Games. Hanover, N. H., Jan. 10.—The base- ball nines of Fordham, Colby and Un- versity of Maine, will meet the Dart- mouth college players on the diamond this vear for the first time. The sched- ule, made public tonight, consists of 25 sames, of which twelve will be played at \anvor, The spring training trip, April 11-16, will be in New York state, New Jersey and Pennsylvania. There will be a game with Princeton on April 12, with the University of Pennsylva- nia on April 14, and with West Point April 16. The team will play Yale at New Haven May 14, Holy Cross ai Worcester May 30, and Amherst at Amherst June £3. Laurel Hills at New London. The Laurel Hills meet the Manual Training school baesketball team at New London this evening. The Nor- wich lineup will probably include Coyl and Robinson, forwerds; Stanley, cen- ter; Revell and Bellefleur, guards. The change from the regular lineup is due to the injury to Jackson, who will watch the game from the sidelines. _ Bates vs. Young Glynn, Young Bates of Providence. who 1s camping in this city just at present, was in New London Friday, and as & result arranged a match with Young Glynn of that place, for next Thursday at Baltic. The bout is scheduled for ten rounds. Bates has been in training for the past weel, and says he will be in good condition for the bout. (Written Specially For The Bulletin.) There is scarcely a town in New England but that at some time in its history has boasted of Haunted House. Hampton is no exception; seventy years ago it had a genuine one and there are people living tod in Nor- wich as well as Hampton, who are terr- ifled by the scenes in the Haunted House. 1t stands today, an old tumble-down | structure, in the southern part of the town, in Howard Valley, just east of | the Three Bridges on the road leading to Canterbury. It has not been babit- able for ma rs this little oid gam- brel-roofed e with its shingied sides and gho: ir, sunken doorsills, gaping window frames and sagging roof. Tradition saysthat a hundred years ago and more a peddler was murdered in the old house: anyway he disap- peared mysteriously, after having lodged in the Louse, and when the un- | canny sights and sounds were heard his memory was revived as being the un- easy ghost which was haunting the ! place. | One story goes that a family living | there moved out because of the wierd | noises heard at nights. One day, the woman, soing into the cellar noticed | a sword protruding out of the taick walls of the chimney. Wondering that | she never noticed before she took hold of it and tried to pull it out, when an awful groaning and shuddering, sounded throughout the whole house, Terrified she fled up-stairs and told her husband who at once went into the cellar but failed to see the sword al- though he bad heard the groans and shuddering sounds. Naturally they moved out as soon as possible. The next family had even a wierder ( bors having come | up the chimney.

The front door which opens into a small entry, wouid mever stay fastened all night, no matter how much pains were taken to lock it securely. Nails driven over.| the latch would be removed, a knife placed inthe latch to prevent its being lifted would also prove unavail- able; the door was alwavs found to be open when morning came. In the night, all over the house the latches would rattle mysteriously. Going to the doors to investigate, the rattling would cease, only to commence again immediately. -Up and down, up and down the latches would rattle as if impish hands were delighting in keeping the family from sleep. East of the entry opens a long room. Before the south window, which was the front window the good wom- an of the house kept her spinning wheel. Her bed stood against the east wall and a small fire place was built on the west side into the big center chimney One evening. some neigh- into the kitchen she opened.the door from the kitchen into this bedroom tn take out an ex- tra chair. FHer little seven-year old daughter followed her, as did also a small white dog, the child’s pet. They saw, what appeared to them to be the bowed figure of a man, outside the window, peering into the room. In a second it seemed to come into the window, right between the spokes of the wheel, and rollin= over and over, a headless, hairy body as of a man, it vanished with a “whishing” nolse The child, remembers it also her _terrible perfec and experience.

Weakness of Copper Stocks, Depresses | the Entire List. | New York 10.—Weakness of | the copper stoc had an unsettling | influence on the general market today and there was a backward swing from csterday’s close. The heaviness of the st had its inception in the copper group, but r to the trams-con- tinental railroad issues, which re- sponded to moderate pressure. The whole list gave way, although in a majority of cases the losses were only fractional. mong the coppers Chino; with a decline of 2 1-2, was weakest. Chino sixes broke ‘here was no new development to account for a change in speculative sentiment, and the movement appeared to be chiefly the result of manoeuvres by the pro- fessional element. Although the increase in the United States Steel corporation’s unfilled ton- nage fell short of some ates it was not a disappointing showing and denoted a large volume of forward business. Orders on hand are esti-y mated as sufficient to keep the mills of the corporation busy for half of the r before in the twelve years corporation’s history, has it begun a new year with so large a carry-over of business on its books. Production { is now being carried on at the high- ate in the history of the com: The December report was not a factor in the stock market. The price of Steel remained stationary for some time after publication of the | figures. “.Weakness of the copper stocks was asSociateq with the further break of the metal abroad, and with reports that selling agencies here had been closing econtracts under the official rate of 17 4-5 cents.

Only a few of the old peopty know the story about the Haunted §House. This tale is related by my Sfather, Bbenezer Jewett, who says i matter of absolute credence, years ago that that was a House. Perhaps, 'if the house is e molished a skeleton will be its chimney; as was found in house not far from there severlll years ago. There are other Ghost sthries of Hampton but this is probably the best known of any. SUSAN JEWETT HOWE. Chemical Research. In an address at Berlin at the open- ing of the Kaiser Wilhelm Institute for promoting_and organizing chemical research, Dr. Emil Fischer read alist of the contributions that chemistry has made to the welfare of Germany, 2 country that has probably been benifited more by scientific research than any other. The most important of these benefltsare those that have come by applying chemistry tothe problems of nourishment, of agriculture and of the food supply; to engineering, rhet- alllurg and cements; to clothing, art- ficlal silks and coloring dyes; to pro- rubber, to perfumery—with the re- ducing both ntural and artificial indla sult that artificlal violet, artificial rose and other artificial odors can now be mede; tosynthetlc camphor; to drugs and0 materia medica, including the re- cent arsenic and selenlum organtc compounds; to radio activity to ther- apeutics, to the destruction of harm- ful microbes- to methods of disposing of sewage: to the preparration of effi- clent explosives, and to many other useful objects.—Youths Companion. ‘a8’ ten- ago a ctors and ‘Audiences. The crying of the theater The crying need of the theater today is a night school for audiences. I do not hesitate to say that the stase today— not as it is conducted, but as it lies In the hope of actors, 1s far ahead of the public taste. I Don’t mean that all ac- tors are superior to allaudiences, but all actors are superior in their entire- ty to the audience in its entirety. Art is a luxury, and in the day of the high cost of living, when the humble man has to pinch the cost of a moving- picture show for his -children out of their daily potatoe, it belongs to those meanse whose oppurtunities permit to keep allve the flame of beauty in art. The drama,“poor Cinderall of the art: is Dbeset on one side by the so-called high-brows who want something 8o “precieux” that nobody will go to see it; and on the other by gaping masses of mere time-killers, who demand something so bad that the artist is shamed to play it Bo if you will help us you must patronize a werthy fort, even if it doesn’t happen to be one of the “six best sellers™ The disap- pointments in a stage career are so great that nothing less than what the Catholics call a “vocation” can justify 1t. There is nothing in the domain of human knowledge that an actor may not put into_his bag with profit. He must know hizrman emotions and their thousand faoets of expression. He must know physical peculiarities and their subdivisions. He must know profes- sions and their ways. He must know psychology and its analysis and syn- thesis. At the bottom it is the best paid profession in the world, and at the top the worst. In this country lovalty to the artist is unknown. The work of a lifetime may tumble into a bad play.— ‘Wilton Lackaye. A Waverly novel Discovery. It seems late in the day for the dis- covery of a new point in connection with the characters in the Waverly Novels. But Dr. J. B. Hellier, a profes- sor in the Medical School of Leeds U- niversity, calls attention in the British Weekly to the fact that with one strik- ing exception all Scott's heroines are motherless. A heroine may live with a widowed father, an uncle, a brother, a grandmother, or other female relative, but, except in “The Bride of Lammer- moor,” there is found no grown-up daughter living with her own mother.

The explanation suggested by* Dr. Hel- ier is that Scott, like every other au- thor, was able to repeat himself and to rTun in a grove in regard to matters which were to him of secondary im- portance. Scott took the greatest pains ! over hishistorical and topographical details, and his special character stud- ies were alwawrs fresh and new, but he spent little trouble over his nominal heroes and heroines. One can but hope concludes Dr. Heller, that all the her- ofnes who were 50 happily married in the last chapters of their respective bi. ographies were not destined to prema- ture decease, but that some of them lived long enough tto bring up their own daughters to maturity and tigive them~-that meternal care of which they themselves rather consplcuously stood in neeed.—New York Evening Post. ;n de-e yd Avoid the Judicial Mind.
