There will be two games in the City League this afternoon. The Palladiums will take on the Pan Handle team at two o'clock and the Pogue Miller team and the Kibbeys play in the second contest. The Palladiums will lineup as they have in the past few games. Eravcry Beaten. None but the brave deserve the fair. That statement causes one to scoff. Because it is so very rare A rich man cannot pick one off. Of Course. "She talks a great deal on the subject." "All, her information is limited then." Other Variety. "He has gohe wrong, though w thought him true as steel." "Found him only true as steal, eh?" PERT PARAGRAPHS. The best way to make a thing unpopular is to try to make It appeal popular. The way some young men are headed It looks as If they will be mighty luo'ij if they are ever able to live down theii future. A bad example SQpms to attract a loi more of imitate attention than a good example doe A small salary i3 fll hoodoo of niatri mony. There are a lot of very small people in the world who unfortunately cannoi qualify physically as midgets. Just knowing how is the specialty and only practice of some people. We like to see other people charita ble, for it then doesn't seem so neces sary for us to be so. ' Save your money and start a trust. Doing one's duty is another term foi being disagreeable. Being jolted out of your self conceil may be healthful, but it is painful. Be careful how yon extend favors if you don't want to make enemies. When a man Is in trouble he is too busy to invitb others in on the assurance that the water is fine. In one respect boys are much better during vacation than In school time. They never play hooky. As far as mutual benefit Is concerned a rich relation Is apt to be a poor connection. Not being able to rsmember Is not nearly so distressing as not being able to forget. The point of too many joke Is a vanishing point.

How Great Batsmen - Meet Ba ll

The Late Ed Delehanty. 'Nap 9 Lajoie 's V ia'ous Line Drives. "Pop" slnson Was the Pitcher1 s Terror Frank Chancers Style. Every professional ball player in fact, everj ball player-hits the ball in a diSereut way.' The attitude at the bat of every player, the way he grasps the club, the way he throws his body Into the swing everything is different. Not two men hit alike. , The late Ed Delehanty. had an odd style. He swung with his arms, with a ADBIAN C. ANSON, NOW CLERK. CHICAGO CITY lurching, slashing movement, quick as a flash, yet in some way he managed to get the strength of his body and his weight behind the drive. One to look at Del would have thought him a poor hitter, although he was one of the best, and at that there were times when Del looked like a sucker against a fast curve ball. He was a great hitter mainljr because of a wonderfully accurate eye and his uncanny ability to ca.ll the turn on what the pitcher was going to deliver. Lajoie is a hitter much after the style of Delehanty. He is huge and powerful, with an ungainly lurch when he meets the ball, and he has a marvelous judgment of speed and a great eye. He is what is known as a wild pitch hitter. He hits the ball better a foot outside the plate than he does when it is over it, but he is likely to cripple the first baseman if you pitch inside to him, for he pulls and slashes the ball fiercely on a line to right. His free shoulder muscles permit him to hit high or low, and he crickets the ball off his feet as well as drives the high ones. Whenever any one speaks of Lajoie I recall Cy Swaim, the elongated Washington pitcher. Cy was going to pitch against Philadelphia and said tenderly to Joe Campbell: "Joe, I'd like to meet Lajoie." "You'll meet him this afternoon," remarked Campbell. That afternoon Cooley led off with a double, Delehanty followed with a triple, and Lajoie smashed the ball over the wall. "Did you meet Lajoie, Cy?" asked Campbell after the game. "Yes," said Cy, "and he had two advance agents." Anson was a great hitter. His position at bat was something to admire. He stood, feet together, bat clutched firmly at shoulder arms position, and almost faced the pitcher. He took one short step forward with his left foot and met the ball squarely between the FRANK CHANCE. " seams. His hits were almost all line drives that cleared the infield,' and he was likely to cripple pitchers, for bis eye was so wonderful that he drove the ball through the box half the time. Did you ever watch Frank Chance of the Chicago Nationals come to bat? He steps up, grasps hi3 bat, taps the plate, holds his bat in his right hand, while he pulls up his belt with his left, places his bat between his legs, pulls his cap on tighter, pulls up his trousers, grabs the bat again, taps the plate and is ready. He goes through these same motions every time he faces a pitcher, and it is a cinch he wouldn't hit .200 if forced to leave them out A. B. Mr. and Mrs. E.- T.

The SPORTING WORLD Believes In Collins. President Ban Johnson of the American league made his long looked for visit to Boston recently and was in conference most of the afternoon "both with General Charles H. Taylor, the owner of the Boston club, and with Manager Collins. He said that every effort would be made to get the Boston club out of its present dilemma. "I have every confidence la Collins," he said, "and I think that no manager is ,1 "V vis jiiraiY collins. better able to get the work out of his men than , he, but he , has been more severely handicapped than comes to the lot of most managers, and I sympathize with him most decidedly. I think that things will come around all light by and by. "There is no friction at all between Collins and the owner of the club. Collins left the team because he was discouraged. With some of the cripples back in the game Boston can be depended upon to make as good a battle as any of the. other teams." Ebbetts Declaration. Commenting on the oiler of $15,000 for Lumley and Jordan made by Manager McCloskey of the St. Louis Cardinals, President Ebbetts of the Brooklyn Nationals says: "McCloskey has no chance to get Lumley and Jfordan at any price, and he knows it. He has made a bad break In letting Taylor and Shannon go, is doubtless being roasted good and plenty by St. Louis fans and is making a bluff with this offer, which I refused to stand for. "lie might as well have offered to buy the whole Brooklyn team for all his bluff is worth. McCloskey has made a mistake in his deal with Chicago and New York and is employing a cheap method to cover up tlie blunder. "lie is simply trying to square himself with the St Louis public by a grand stand play. As soon as I can communicate with Manager Donovan I will get back at McCloskey by making an offer to the St. Louis club for two of its best men, if two good men can be found in that aggregation. It has been badly weakened by the blunders of McCloskey, and I refuse to have him cover tip his own shortcomings by trying to cause dissatisfaction among our players." Sells Lonisvllle Stock. It developed recently that George Tebeau, owner of the baseball franchises of Louisville and Kansas City in the American association, and Denver in the Western league, ha3 disposed of a block of stock of the Louisville club to ten business men of the city. These men are all"ardent supporters of the team, and the effect will be to popularize the Colonels. Just how much stock was sold is not known, but it is certain that the control of the club still rests with George Tebeau. The Louisville club has always been a money maker, and this has been a banner year and the stock was disposed of at par value. A Motoring Hint. "Robbing Teter to pay Paul" always has been conceded to be poor policy, but there are times on the road when a motorist fans his choice between doing something of the sort or walking. It is possible to remove a bolt or nut from some place where- i serves a not very important purpose and to use it to replace one in some vital part. This sort of makeshift Is one that Tequires judgment however. Sir Thomas Lipton. In response to an invitation to visit Milwaukee during the summer, Sir Thomas Upton has cabled that he will be tmable to come over. This would indicate that Sir-Thomas will not 6tart the Shamrock in the king's cup race of the New-York Yacht club at Newport, It. L - - -
