way, the Idea being orlglnatod by a man
who batted a boxing glove with a broon.

large as an average base ball also about six

I so excited at a bll gams as I wai last Fri
day ovenlng, whei the far-famed "Cttlln"
nine played for the championship against
the La Urange, team, In the pretty little La
Orange club house. Everything seemsd so
hasardous. I sat In the gallery and held my
breath for fear the first basemtn, th one I
was most particularly Interested in, would
fan out, or, If he hit the ball, that it would
sail up In my direction. When a Catlln boy
would come Co bat I almoit prayed that ho
might get to flrt;once there, he was m

did I say I It U too mild a word. A tobog
gan Is not to be compared with him. At the

Perhaps It doea; at any rate It is Invaluable
to a pior batter. Hs step up to the plate and
wildly aawa the air. The crowd leers and
he, Instead of standing there all embarrass
meat, calmly leaves the plate, rubs his feet
over the wet rag, walks back and tries
again. The Catlln pitcher struck out eight
men of the nine who came to bat In the first
throe innings, and the Catlln enthusiasts, of
whom I was the enly feminine member,
fairly raised the root. The famous seven
teen luring game with Minneapolis was not
more interestlni;, and the score 11 to 1
was vastly more satisfactory. The La
Grange women would have taken pie sure
in throwing me out of the window that
evening. One was constrained to pity them
for they had nothing to applaud. La
Orange, I believe, has decided not to play
any more ball this season. The catcher for
the Catlln' la a little boy about twelve years
old, but he can hold the ball. It waa worth
the price of an admission to watch the left
abort-stop. As soon as the ball would leave
the pitcher's hand he would start at the bat
tar, taking little short steps and pounding
hie feet hard. It waa no wonder that his
opponeaU lowered their batting average, he
Just simply scared them so they couldn't bat.
The La Orange team has a proreasloual
pitcher, and many were the crlet of "How's
that for a raised ball, Mr. Umpire"! the
rule being that the ball must be delivered
underhand aaut curves. Bat I Imagine you
