PITCHED

BALLS

BRING DISASTER Ball Players Hit by Tta Sphere Lose Their Form MAY FORCE CHANGE TO QUIT Cubs' Great - Leader, 8 truck on Head by Ball Recently, May Manage Team From Bench Cases Cited Where 8tars Loat Their Effectiveness. Being hie by a pitched ball may cause Frank Chance to quit as an active player and manage his team from the bench. In the fourth inulng of a recent game with Cincinnati the Cubs' great manager was hit on the bead by a pitched ball. He fell as if he bad been struck by a club. The ball, pitched with all the speed that Gasiutr commanded, struck the manager on the left temple und cut open bis head. At the expiration of five minutes he was able to bobble to the bench, where his head was bandaged. Being hit by a pitched ball seems to take the beart out of many ball tossers. Baseball history shown that nearly every star player that has been injured by being struck by a thrown ball Is never the same afterward. For Instance, there Is Charley Cnrr. now manager of the Indianapolis team In the Ameilcnu association. Several years ago Cnrr looked like tbe best batting and fielding first baseman In tbe country. lie bad his nose broken by a pitched ball while traveling with the Detroit club in tbe south. He was never able to maintain his previous batting ability after that Detroit traded bim to Cleveland for Hickman, and Cleveland sold him to Cincinnati. From tbe last named town he went to Indianapolis, where he has been ever since. Hughey Jennings bad his big league career cut short by being hit with a pitched ball, as did Oom Paul Kruger, formerly of Pittsburg. Danny Hoffman was Connie Mack's most valuable outfielder until be stopped an lnsboot with bis eye. The following year he was of little value to Philadelphia and was .sold to New York. Vrom there he wedt to St Louis, -where be has shown some Improvement Eddie Summers when with Indianapolis gave Jap Barbeau s terrific jolt on the head. For a time It was thought that Barbeau would die as the result of the blow, but be finally recovered and played a brilliant gnme at short for Toledo tbe following season. But be has not bit as well as formerly. Then there was Bill Bradley, whose arm was broken by an lnsboot: delivered by Bill Hogg, who died recently. Prior to his accident Bradley was a .300 hitter and as much feared by opposing pitchers as Nap Lajole. But such is the case no more. Prior to being bit by Hogg. Bradley was famed as being particularly skillful In taking bis base as a result of being hit with a pitched ball. After that memorable game at New York be attained first by such means less frequently. . Terry Turner has been of little value to Cleveland for two seasons on account of Injuries, although when he did play he showed better form than ever before. Elberfeld has been an In and outer because of frequent accidents, and Freddie Parent has been much to tbe mediocre for the last two seasons. It was a pitched ball that cnt short Parent's career In the major organization. In the season of 1907 tbe clever little Frenchman was bowled over by a swiftly pitched ball, and he never has battled strong since. Ed Walsh Forswears Reading. They are telling this story on -Big Ed" Walsh, the Chicago Americans' star pitcher, who batted poorly last season. . A number of Coraiskey's players were sitting In a hotel In Washington when a vlsitlne Chicaeo Z fan who thought to do Walsh a favor handed tbe pitcher a Chicago paper with a story more or less complimentary to bim. Thanks," said Walsh to his friend. 'but I . have aworn off . reading. It isn't good for a fellow's batting."' "My, but what lot of reading you must have done last season r replied tbe obliging fan. BASEBALL POINTERS -Walter Johnson has more natural ability than any other pitcher in the game," opines Ilughle Jennings. -Batters are improving, not pitchers deteriorating." Is the way President Lynch explains tbe heavy hitting. Duffy Lewis is playing . wonderful ball for the Boston Americans. He's the California recruit who practiced with the Reds at Hot Springs. Pittsburg has the best fielding club In the National league, but tbe pitchers are not going good, and the batting of the Pirates is a little weak this year. Christy Matbewson is having trouble with his left wrist He says he doesn't remember having hurt it In any way, but it is stiff and painfuL Although It doesn't affect his pitching, it doea his batting. GIANTS TO PLAY MUNCIE. Richmond Giants have arranged a game with the Muncie Athletic Association for Sunday, July 10 at Athletic Park.

The strikers fear that the employers will try to have the work on hand done In Cleveland and Chicago, but it was said today that at the first inti mation that unfinished goods were be ing shipped to the factories there, strikes would be declared in both cities. .

EXPULSIOyF JEWS Advices from Interior Russia Relate of Horrors Attending the Move.

200 HAVE BEEN MASSACRED Vienna, July 7. The Semitic leaders of Vienna, it was learned today, have received advices from Russia, declaring that the expulsion of Jews from cities without the Pale is being pushed with terrible ferocity, the vietime receiving brutal treatment at the hands of the Russian authorities. : The Russian government, with a strict censorship, has succeeded in concealing facts, truth being obtainable only by courier and cipher letters. The situation is unprecedented, save for the scenes of five years ago, when the government supervised wanton slaughter. It is estimated here that fully 20.00O men, women and children have been torn from their homes and driven like cattle from the prescribed territory, most of them penniless and subjected to terrific hardships. The full story of the horrors of this forced exodus may never be known, but Viennese Jews charge that the expulsion has been responsible, directly or indirectly, for the death of fully 20O men, women and children. Fine Point in isi testimony. -So." said tbtf JuUc. ".von ;y thnl you never went to Chli-ago from llun tersrille. Now. this I a very tut porfant point In the catw. and I gtv' you one more chance to explain, for you and Snyder were seen on the same train. Now. lie precise." "No. sir; I never went to Chicago." . "Didn't Snyder go?" "Yes, sir." . "And you were with him. Now, out with it" "Yes, sir." answered the witness, after a pause. "You see. I told the truth, because it was this way: We at opposite each other. Bo faced the engine. 1 didn't go to Chicago. I Just backed away from Huntersvllle." Woman's Home Companion. SELL OUT THEIR INTEREST. Henry Woessner and Sherman Bittrlch, partners in the Richmond Abattoir company, have sold their Interests to Edward Reynolds, who probably will close the concern until fall. The high price paid for livestock' is said to be one of the reasons why the plant will be closed temporarily. The three men purchased the plant from Perry J. Freeman, the receiver, early in the spring. Woessner and Bittrich will return to Indianapolis. EARTHQUAKE SHOCK. Washington, July 7.

Sir Edwin Ijiiuiwr. tbe animal painter, cue time was ubout to put the finishing touches to the portrait of a'dog belongiug to a nobleman and was expecting a visit from bis model wbeutbe owner arrived In a state of great, perturbation without tbe do?. The an

imal had been stolen. After talking over the loss with Sir Edwin the owner decided to leave the matter in the palmer' s ha nds. together with ten pound note as a reward for tbe recovery of the dog. - Sir Edwin's acquaintance with tbe dog fanciers was large, and be summoned to bis aid one Jem Smith, who he thought might put nim on the right track, lie showed the man the picture and the banknote und promised that If the dog was restored no questions should lie asked. Six; weeks later Smith arrived at the studio leading tbe missing dog by n piece of string. "Here Is your 10." cm id tbe artist "and I suppose I must ask no questions. But now that the affair la doue with, you may Jim as well tell me about It" After a moment of hesitation tbe man confessed that he himself was the thief. "You. you thundering rascal!" exclaimed Sir Edwin. "Then why. on earth hare you kept us In suspense all this timer -Well, you see. itoVner," was the nnnwer, - stole the dorg. but the gea'lemnn'l sold bim to kep' 'Icq so Jolly close tliat 1 hadn't a chance of nicking him again till yesterday, and that's the truth, s'elp me." .

The next daj tbe Kenyah tries once' more until the hawk gives the sign w bleb he wants. Thus the continuation of the Journey depends on the flight ,of tbe birds. Some birds are of greater Importance than others, and also to the singing of tthe birds attention is given. Other animals are also consulted, and tbe sea .Dyaks call every animal a "bird wheo they consult It Prodigality of Life In Ancient Egypt.
