j Having tried unsuccessfully various highly recommended recipes for dislodging selfish passengers from coveted seats, the woman who swung from a strap in front of the sandy man tried talking at him to her husband. As a peroration to her harangue, she said impressively: “If you, James, should ever be piggish enough to sit down while there was a woman in the car left standing, I would never speak to you again as long as I live.” The sandy man looked up then. “Lucky devil,” he said. “Not many of US could purchase peace at that price.” The newest Atlantic b ner has 11 decks.

NEW YORK HIGHLANDERS UNEARTH PHENOM

Trank L. Chance sincerely believes that Ray Keating, the hoy whom the Yanks secured from Lawrence, Mass., will be as good as Ed Walsh within a few years. “A great pitcher, that boy,” commented Chance as he gazed at the youngster. “He uses the spit ball almost ex> clusively, but has he the physique for a spit-ball pitcher?” was suggested. “I’ll agree with you that he isn’t as tall as Walsh, but he weighs 185 stripped, which isn’t being a light man by a good many pounds, and take a look at those shoulders. This boy is only twenty years old. He has a few years to grow.” Keating’s success is with the spit ball. He has a good fast ball, but relies on the salivated delivery. "Walsh uses the spltter. That’s all he has,” went on Chance, “that and a fast one, but ‘the spitter nearly all the time." “How do American league pitchers look to you?” “Some of those I have seen look pretty fair, to say the least. There is Walter Johnson —” “Would you call him better than Mathewson?” “No, I would hot say that Johnson is a better pitcher than Mathewson. You have to give Matty a lot of credit. He is a wonderful pitcher. He has speed, curves, a good slow ball and a great mind. Johnson has more speed than Matty, but lacks several of the other things. “I do not believe that Johnson-wJll last as long as Mathewson. A man cannot use as much speed as he does for many seasons. He is developing a curve ball that will be of great advantage to him. He showed a good curve when he pitched against us. He has no slow ball to speak of, but with that curve and speed he will be bet-

ter equipped than In previous years. As he grows older he will pitch more with his brain than his arm and last longer than if he depended on that speed and his curve. “In picking pitchers I think I would take Mordecai Brown If Ij, had one pitcher to choose of all those in the major leagues. Brown bad everything a pitcher needed —a great curve, good speed, slow ball and control. He was a wise pitcher, and I do not think 1 ever saw a better fielding pitcher. Besides that.

day at any stage of the game and at way pitch good ball. I did not see a lefthander this spring, though, who, if he always pitches the kind of ball he pitched' against us, is the greatest southpaw in the country. That’s Plank of Philadelphia.” “Do you think him superior to Rucker and Marquard?” “I think him superior to anyone I ever saw.’ And Chance should know. He batted against the pick of the National league hurlers for several years, and managers were always sure that their star boxmen were at their best when the Cubs came to town. He had to face Walsh at the end of several seasons in the Chicago city series, and knows him well, and this spring he bumped againßt Johnson and Plank. If any man in the major leagues is In a position to know the relative value of the pitchers in high baseball society, Chance is that man.

HANDICAP TO PLAYERS

Stars Who Suffered Because of Size of Their Digits. Cy Beymour Found Great Difficulty In Controlling Ball Becausa Hia Hands Were 80 Small —Campbell Another Victim. It was the small else of his hands which kept Cy Seymour from being a great pitcher. When he first Joined the New York Giants, many years ago, he came as a twirler, but he found the greatest difficulty in securing control of the ball, because his hands are so small that he,could not get his fingers all the way around the sphere. Cy was finally forced to give up pitching entirely and go to the outfield, where his hitting, rather than his fielding, kept him in the game for a long period of years. Vincent Campbell, the fast center fielder of the Bostons, last season, has the same handicap as Seymour in regard to the size of his hands. Campbell’s mitts are far below the average In length and diameter, and the muffed files which he is guilty of are the result of this physical handicap, to a great extent. He Is also not so good a thrower as he would be if his hands were a bit more bulky. Campbell, however, played better ball last season than ever before.

Vincent is a speed marvel, no one excelling him in getting down to first base. But he has two weak points in offensive work. He is a very poor waiter, and so does not get on nearly so often as he would if he was able to force the pitcher to pitch to him. His great speed makes him k* hard man to Btop in the bases, but he is not on there so much as he would be if he could develop the habit of waiting to better advantage. Campbell hits IS points higher than Bob Bescher, but the extra bases on balls secured by the Redleg were more valuable than the extra hits made by the Boston gardener. t Owing to his inability to wait, Campbell went to bat more times officially than any other player in the National league last year. He was charged with 624 times at bat, and no other player reached the 600 mark, though 16 of them played In as many or more games than he did. This is a serious weakness In a lead-off man, who shotpd be on base more often by the pass route. Campbell, in spite of his great speed, is not a very clever base runner. While Bescher was stealing 67 bases last year Vincent was copping Just 10, both men playing in exactly the same number of games.

JOHNSON NOW HOLDS RECORD

Washington Bpeed King Ends Sensational Run When 8t Louis Scored Run Off His Delivery. Walter Johnson, Washington’s star pitcher, is the official holder of the major league record for pitching consecutive scoreless innings, winding up his great run at St. Louis recently, when he added three and one-third innings to his work. The Browns scored on him in the fourth inning. Johnson now bolds the record at 56 Innings. Johnson’s teammates claim this is a major league record for shutouts, and so far as known it is. Record books crediting Doc White of the White Sox with 56 innings and Jack Coombs of

the Athletics with 53 Innings have been proved Incorrect, making authentic information concerning previous performances of this kind difficult to obtain. Johnson’s run of 56 runless innings has been verified and found correct. All other claims are more or less open to doubt Johnson’s record follows: April 10—AfOlBit X«v T0rk.........- I April 10—.

A great, hoiking negro was sitting in the kitchen rocker. Indignant, the woman hurried back. _ r N “Cindy,” she demanded, “what have I told you about having your beaux in the kitchen?” 3 “Laws, miss, tWaln’t no beau! Why, he’s nuffin but mybTUdder.” Somewhat mollified, the Woman went back to the kitchen. "So you are Cindy’s brother?” she said kindly. ' “Law bless yo’ no, miss,” he answered- “I ain’t no 'lation ’tall to her. I’se Jes' keepin' comp’ny wif her.” The woman sought Cindy again. “Cindy,” she asked sternly, "why did you tell me that the man was your brother? He says he’s no relation." Cindy looked aghast. ”Fo’ de Lawd's sake, miss, did he say dat? Jes’ yo’ stay here a minlt an’ lemme go look ag’in.”—Chicago Record-Herald.

905 Lowell Place, Chicago, Ill.— “The trouble began by my hands burning and itching and I rubbed and scratched them till one day I saw little red aores coming out My hands were disfigured and swollen, and troubled me so that I could not sleep. They were cracked and when the small sores broke a white matter would come out I could not do any hard work; if I did the sores would come out worse. For two years nobody could cure my eczema, until one day I thought I would try the Cuticura Soap and Ointment I used warm war ter with the Cuticura Soap and after that I put the Cuticura Ointment on my hands twice a day for about five or six months when I was cured.” (Signed) Sam Marcus, Nov. 28, 1911.
