DUFFY LEWIS
BOWS TO TIME!
One of Baseball's Finest a
Free Agent After Years
of Service.
New York, June 25.Baseball's great
door te which there is no key on tha
other side has opened, and-one of the
greatest heroes of all time on the diam.
on3 has stepped through into the dark-1
ness apparently. It is Duffy Lewis
who passes on, leaving behind him a
record as clean as the driven snow,
reputation for courage in moments of
emergency that will hold . its place in
the register on Olympus.
Lewis has been declared a free agent
by the Washington Seinators aftef
eleven j'ears of faithful service in the
American league. When this season
started he was installed m left field,
with Clyde Milan in right and the" fleet
Sam Rice in center. Duffy did not
gett off to a good start with the stick,
but it was believed that he was just
a bit backward, and George McBrida
kept him on the job. Finally, Lewis
requested that he be benched until he
recovered from his slump. Bing Miller
was put in left field, alternating with
Frank Bower, and Lewis never got
back in the game except for occasional
efforts in the pinch.
With half "a dozen openings at his
command, the famous player will not
Jack for occupation. Several enter
prises in his native California await
his acceptance. It is said that the
Tigers and Red Sox will give him an
other chance if he wants it.
The rise of Lewis was meteoric. His
fall was swift and sudden. In 1907
he played on the Almeda club of the
California State league and was a star,
The following year he was with the
Oakland club of the Pacific Coast
league and looked like a million dol
lars. In 1910 he came up to the Boston
Red Sox and was with them continu
ously until the end of 1917. In 1918
Lewis answered his country's call, al
though he was married, and serve 1 in
the navy. -
Just the other day a group of base
ball men were, discussing outfielders.
One of them declared that Lewis was
a star the day he arrived in th biz
leagues, and the others, all ca33 hard
ened veterans, agreed with him With
Tris Speaker, now manager of tha In
dians, and Harrv Hooper, right fielder
of the Chicago White Sox. l ewis com
pleted the greatest outfield that over
played together at one time. That was
in the days of Boston es oaseoau yioi.v.
Lewis played on three championship
clubs in the big scrimmage.
It has often been said that Lewis was
without nerves and that ice wacer
coursed in his veins. He revealed in the
pinches and no situation ever ciuiea
his courage. Put him up to the bat
with three on bases and a hit needed
to win a ,?ame, and watch Duffy come
through. " He played his first world's
series in 1912 against tne uiam.i, i:n,i
rlid not do so 'much hitting only .156.
Three years later, against the Philadel
phia club, he hit .444 ana was ine mm
ing sensation of the series. In 19 its
against Brooklyn, he clouted 353 and
showed Buck Wheat a fcw.thmj -tbrut
playing left field.
STRANGE STORIES
How a woman lied to save the life
of a soldier during the days when Camp
Greene was at its height is recalled
by A. N. Bogert; of the Mecklenburg
hotel. , .
"It was a case that baffled Officer
Dan Bradley and several other mem
bers of the Charlotte police force." be
gan Mr, Boger. "It was dramatic to
the extreme."
The narrative of Mr. Bcger's story
opened in front of the Stonewall Hotel,
at which he was working at the time.
One of the police sergeants was on
dutv near the hotel when he was ap
proached by an unusually pretty young
woman. With an expression of sad
ness, she asked the officer the direction
to Camp Greene, and, by way of ex
planation, showed a telegram, which
"Your brother, William Jernigan,
seriously ill with influenze. Not ex
neoted to live."
The sympathetic sergeant not only
showed the young woman means of
getting to the camp, but personally saw
tr it that she was taken out.
The incident was almost forgotten
when the sergeant was approached by a
tall, distinguished looking man of per
haps two score years and ten. He
asked the way to Camp Greene, and. by
way of explanation, showed a telegram
which read:
"Vnii, snn. William Jernigan, seri
ously ill with influenze. Not expected
to live." ,
"Mr. Jernigan," said the sergeant,
"I have already sent your daughter
out to the camp. You probably will
find her out there.'
"What?" exclaimed the man, ( with
a look of surprise upon his face. "Why,
I have no daughter. You must have
me mixed up with some one else.
And a rnnsi iltation followed at the
police station after the man had left
for the camp.
"I talked with the policeman, said
Mr. Boger, "and it was concluded that
either the man or woman, or possibly
both, were in some manner manoeuvr
ing to get the sick man's insurance.
The woman had registered at the hotel
and we began to watch for her."
That same afternoon the woman was
seen and accosted bv the sergeant as
she entered the hotel. Fortunately,
the man also was nearby, and the ser
geant brought them face to face.-
The expression on the woman s face
was one of utter bewilderment as the
sergeant said
"Here is your father."
The man took the young woman over
to a seat while we remained near the
clerk's desk. We could overhear none
Of. the conversation, but it was obvious
that the young woman was in a high
state of agitation.
"She would tell me nothing." said the
man, after the woman had hastily ex
cused herself and gone to her room.
We all followed. The sergeant knock
ed on the door. She opened it. W
went in. x . . '
"I know what you think," cried the
young woman.
"You must know that
t . vi!o sistpr. I am his sweet-
heard. We are engaged to be married.
I met him at a northern camp When
I heard that he was ill, I knew I would
have to pass off as his sister or not
see him. I am here to save his life
if possible.'. , ,..'
She showed letters from the soldier
which convinced the officers of her sin
cerity, and explained that bashfulness
had kept her fronv telling the father
of her lover the truth.
"And I want to say this," concluded
Mr. Boger, "doctors had given that
soldier up to die, but that girl stayed
by his bed and nursed him back to life.
She put new lnspirauuu m m sum,
ami, so help me goodness, if she didn't
get him entirely well. They were mar
ried a few days'later."

SPLENDORHUMOR
PATHOS MINGLED
Marriage of Miss Deacon to
Duke of Marlborough a
Tragi-comical Affair. .
BY NEWTON C- PARKE,
International News Staff Correspondent
Paris, June 255.--Social splendor and
rowdyism, pathos and humor were
curiously mingled in the making of an
other American duchess today and one
of the conspicuous features was the
snubbing of the bridal pair by mny
members of their own select caste. Sel
dom has an international marriage pro
vided gay, gossipy Paris with such a
wealth of picturesque sidelights as did
today the religious ceremony unit tig
Gladys Deacon, of Boston, with the
Duke of Marlborough.
Outstanding in tragi-comical interest
was the experience of the man who
tied the knot. The Rev. T. H. Wright,
pastor of the Scoteh Presbyterian
church, finally persuaded through
weeks of ardent pleas to officiate at th3
ceremony, was. a few minutes after
the last solemn "Amen," suspected as
a thief with an eye on the. magnifi
cent wedding gifts.
MINISTER ARRESTED.
The tall, lean minister, who, moved
by sympathy for the young bride, had
waived aside his scruples with regard
to the divorce that paved the way jp
the duke's marry4ng the Boston belle,
shared with the bridal pair for a few
minutes the feverish attention of th-3
brilliant assemblage in the great Hig
gins mansion and the throng outside in
the Place Iena, where women and men
were perched on the Washington mon
ument and other vantage points to
catch a glimpse of the event.
Only a few guests were able to pene
trate to the small chapel in the Higr
gins home; others craning their necks
tet hear the. hieh. Rflueakv voice of the
clersryman pronouncing the union ba-
fore the Lord. In the general rush
of congratulations, the Rev. Mr.
Wright was lost to sight. He had ab
sent-mindedly wandered into the rooms
where countless silver services and
other priceless gifts were on display.
He was immediately ssiae"d by three
special detectives posted at strategy
points to guard the presents. He hjvl
to call the duke for help.
The bridegroom smilingly explained
the clergymen's identity to the ambi
tious sleuths and the incident was
closed.
STENOGRAPHERS BATTLE.
A battle of the photographers enliv
ened the luncheon given in the garden
after the ceremony. A French camera
man had hired three hoodlums, whoso
sole business it was to prevent Ameri
can and English photographers from
"snapping" the duke and his brWe.
The gangsters strictly obeyed orders,
interposing themselves between tne
bridal pair every time an , American or
English camera was about to click.
Finally, the bride herself intervened
in the interest of fair play at a junc
ture when fisticuffs threatened to breik
up the luncheon. Whereupon the An
glo-Saxons got a chance to "shoot"
her and the duke.
Several persons carrying engraved
invitations were ousted by door guards,
which led to further misunderstandings
and hard feelings. When the rejjected
guests protested, the police shouldered
them out.
On the other hand, many interna
tional celebrities, including Marshal
Foch. President Millerand and Pre
mier Briand, who had been invited,
sent their regrets, prompted it waa
generally understood, by ingrained ob
jections against divorce.-
The bride and groom left late this af
ternoon on a motor honeymoon.
WILSON BECOMES
ATTORNEYATLAW
Helped by Attendants, He
is Admitted by Court -to
Practice of Law.
By T. NTsAXDrFER
International News Staff Correspondent
Washington, June 25. Woodrow Wil
son is a living symbol of the aspira
tions where iron-willed championship
wrecked his health.
in the bustle of the nast four months,
the world has scarcely given a thought
to the silent man who retired from the
turmoil of politics to a quiet part of
the nation's capital to look on.
Todav he came back for a little
whUe-to become Woodroiv Wilson at. J
toreny-at-law. i
In one of the big tournihg cars re-j
tained from the White House when he
became a private citizen, a smalL-Party
drove up to the east entrance of the
Pistrict Supreme Court building. It it
feat Woodrow Wilson, a gray outo rug
wrapped about him to -his waist. With
him were his former secretary Joseph
P. Tumulty; former Secretary of State
Bainbridge Colby and John Boiling, a
brother-in-law.
AUDIENCE LIMITED
The audience was limited to several
newspaper carema-mett and court atten
dants. The photographers had pre
viously been ordered from the build
ing by Chief Justice McCoy, who, hav
ing sighted the cameras, turned to their
owners, with livid face and said:
"This is a damned outrage when a
private citizen cannot do anything with
out being annoyed. Take those things
out of here." -.
There were no pictures and no inter
views. Helped by attendants and others, the
former President emerged backward
from the automobile, movingvery slow
ly. He was ressed in formal morning
coat with gray-htpide trousers and wore
a straw hat. AS he walked, or rather
shuffled, he used a heavy bamboo stick
with curved handle and was helped
along by his attenants. His face was
drawn arid set, but with good color, his
eyea on the ground except for an oc
casional upwards stare through his
glasses-
HELPED INTO CAR
In the chambers he was greeted .by
the Chief Justice and associate justices,
after which the oath was administered.
He signed his name in hiB customary
bold hand. As he left the chambers,
he nodded slightly to those about him.
He resume his place in the car partly
by his own efforts and partly by the
efforts of an attendant who lifted him
Court attendants crowded about him
to shake his han, which the former
President extended to them. He smiled
as he greeted them. As the car drove
off, he turned, with something of his old
manner, slightly smiling, and raised his
hat, then was gone.
The ceremony of admitting WoodrOW
Wilson to the bar took about eight
minutes.- His first business appearance
In public, all told, lasted scarcely over
fifteen minutes. ,
