She exclaimed. Iwaghlng “Jack "The picturesque new boatman. The girls all have been out to see him They say be looks like Romeo. Mother wouidn't let me go out there alone." Ned had to admit that Jack was cer tainly of the type to appeal to the ar tlstlc and feminine eye. He was slen der. supple and little und handled the boat with ease and grace He had dark, foreign-locking eyes, strong fea fur***. brown skin, even white teeth and a musical voice He wore cordu roy trousers, b.ue flannel shirt with turn-down collar and rolled up sleeves, red tie. a bit of a cap on the back of his head, with a Byronic raven lock on i his brow When they were in the sailboat Ned j tried to draw him Into conversation j but sailor-like his eyes and thoughts were centered oa the boat and sky.

"Yes: that's our busy time." replied Jack “Once in a while I lay off for a morning I am going to get up to- J morrow and go to the ball game." 'Be sure you do." urged Ned. "It's 1 going to be the game of the season." j He went burne, relieved. Jack had omitted all his “g's" and had said “git" j for "get " He went early to the game the nvit morning and secured a seat on the bleachers watching the entrance | faithfully. Presently Jack appeared. , "dressed up " Ills attire was just j what Ned had topp'd It would be. At luncheon he remarked casually j to hia sister: “Bessie Lawrence and 1 went to Round lake for a sail yes- j lerday. “I bear the girls are all wild over the new boatman I don't wonder | He's abont as handsome a chap as 1 ever saw outside of a picture." "Isn't he beautllul?" she asked en ( tbusiistlcally. “and can't he handle a boat well?" "Yes; he's a born sailor. Sa you have teen sailing with him. Edith?" "Tes. a few times." she said "Have you been with him anywhere else*" ITT!re or twice. We rowed up the ! creek and—" “And where else. Edith?" he asked gently. "I took him In my automobile for a ride." “And do you think that was just the : thing to do? Why not ask him to j come to your house, as you did Tom and the others?" "I thought." she said, reddening under his gaze, “that you would ob ject." "I would certainly prefer to have you see him here than to be going where he Is I made his acquaintance at the ball game this morning I shall ask him to call. If you like ” "I don't think T want him to call.” j she said nervously "Why not?" he asked In feigned sur prise “I don't know just why." she sold doubtfully. “! made Inquiries about him and 1 find that he U a respectable. Indus trious fellow. Ill ask him to come up after dinner tonight. I want to see him anyway and figure on a sailboat party for next week." He telephoned to the resort and Jack promised to call at eight o'clock that night When he was admitted bv the maid Edith and Ned were In the library. Edith looked at him and turned away from Ned's dancing eyes, j Jack wore bright tan shoes, plaid , -ocks. light trousers, a gaudy waist coat. a gorgeous tie. a watch chain with a multiplicity of dangling charms, a large pin in his tie and an organlza- : tlon emblem In his lapel. He seemed perfectly at ease, however; much more so than his hostess. And he blithely Ignored all the rules of Eng lish After half an hour Ned consid ered from his sister's countenance that the lesson bad been learned. "Now. Berdan." be said, "let's figure on getting that biggest boat of yours up through the chain of lakes ." "Then. If you want to talk business. I may be excused." said Edith, hastily leaving the room. Present her brother called to her. "Our caller had to depart." he said gravely "He had only two hours' leave By the wav. Edith, he con : Sd*-d in me that he had a girl—a 1 dandy girl, he said " “Ned." she said, tears of mortiflca tlcn in her eyes, “he looks so different In a boat." That Is true. He should stay in one. But did you know that Tom re turned today? May I telephone and ask him to come up tonight?" "He won’t come." she said hope lessly "Let's see." he replied, going to the telej hone.

Wherever baseball is known the name of Mathewson is known. Gener ally the fans call him “Matty." Some times you hear him spoken of as "Big Six." He's some pitcher, this Mathew son, as every player in the National league, except Joe Tinker, the Cubs' shortstop, will admit. Joe no doubt agrees that Mathewson can twirl some, but he has. in seasons gone by, shown that he had no fear of Christy. In fact, Joe has had a hard time hit ting some of the weak pitchers, but he could laud on “Matty's” fadeaway or his fastest shoots without much trouble. Joe von a championship for Chicago by swatting one of "Big Six's” curves for two bags in 1908. Anyway Mathewson has it on the best in the National league and it is doubtful If there are any in the Amer ican who is as good, which comes pretty near saying that he is the greatest pitcher in the business. Lots of people wouldn't dispute this state ment. but some might. 30 we'll let it go with the qualifications attached. Manager McGraw took his boys across the Brooklyn bridge a few days ago to play the Dodgers, now un der the guiding hand of one "Bill” Dahlen. McGraw wanted to stay at the top of the list so he sent Mathew son to the slab. “Bix Six" right there came near shattering all records. He already has two no-hit no-run games to his credit and it looked like he was going to make It three when Me Elveen got a scratch that spoiled the record. Devlin made a wonderful one hand stop of the ball but threw low while off his balance end now Mathew son will have to wait until he can claim the honor of three no-hit games On July 15, 1901. Mathewson shut out St. Louis without a hit. On June 13, 1905, he did the same thing to the Chi cago boys. It just goes to show that “Matty” hasn't lost his cunning ar.d he will be as dangerous this year as ever. All the old-time ball players were sorry to hear of the death of Tom Loftus and many were the stories told about him. “He was manager of the Chicago team when I played there.” said Bradley. “One day In a close game at the West Side park, Hans Wagner, who was not In the lineup that afternoon, was sent up to bat for the pitcher of the visiting team. Loftus, who was sitting oa the bench, began laughing so uproarious ly that play was temporarily sus pended. 'What's the matter. TomT somebody asked. 'Oh.' said Loftus. 'this is too funny. Think of sending a Dutchman to bat in an emergency'.' Then everybody laughed and Wagner was so mad that he struck out— which, of course, was Just what Loftua was trying to get him to do.” After holding out for a year. Danny Sheehan, who used to play third for the South Bend club. Is back in the Central league and Bert Annls has as signed him to Grand Rapids. By not reporting to the South Bend team last season. Daniel made room for “Runt” Walsh, who used the Benders as a stepping-stone Into the National league. Down In Philadelphia they think a good deal of “Runt," and It would not be surprising to see Charley Dootn use him In the regular lineup before the season is far advanced. Ed Walsh says Boston Is the best place in the major league circuit for a traveling team. "I may be wrong, but to my way of thinking Boston is the fountain center of all the base ball level-headedness in the world." says Walsh. “1 think—I may be mis taken—but 1 think that I have won 16 out of the last 17 games 1 have pitched against the Red Sox on their grounds. But I remember that in the one game I lost I was cheered so hard that I was deeply ashamed to lose the game. The fans were with me simply because I had been successful against their team as a rule. One never hears In Boston a lot of fans snapping and snarling over the failure of their team to wrin a game. Down there they go to the ball park to see a game; not necessarily to see the home team win." Frank Smith is likely to succeed to the title of “iron man." which Joe McGinnity formerly wore. Newspa per writers and fans all over the American league circuit are referring to the South sider as "Iron Man" Smith. It certainly would be a fitting title. I-arry Gatto. who originated the gift of an oyster with every drink and made a fortune in his model saloon as a result, died a few days ago of heart disease at Louisville. Ky. Gatto started as a bootblack. lie would not allow one man to be Introduced to another in his saloon, would not allow treating and would not sell to a man who was known to be Intoxicated. He was half owner of the Louisville Baseball club when It won the pennant in 1S90. King Kelly, the “champeen" laxy catcher of the Central league for a number of years, hp.s been sent to the Freeport club of the Wisconsin-Ulinois league by Dubuque.

Time Champions •Copyright* 1910. by Joseph B. Bowles.) * guy ivttiu uws. rus* sibly part of the credit is due to me, and I am not modest enough to dis claim any credit. I strive to keep them fighting, working hard all the time, and cutting out the pace for the other teams, because I believe we have the best ball clubhand the gamest, and the one that will wear down the others and beat them out. 1 am not much of a stickier for harmony and do not care whether there is harmony among the players or not—so long as they are harmonious on the ball field and will do or try to do what they are told to do and not do anything that will hurt the club. Devotion to the club Itself is all the harmony necessary, although it is pleasanter to have it. Sometimes 20 or 30 fighting, aggressive ball players are hard to harmonize, but it can be done, as far as the game itscir is con ' cerned. The best infield work I ewer | did was with a player who didn't speak to me all season except to call me if I came slow—and you bet 1 came and he came. In the first place, when a team starts training there is one thing every man should keep in mind, and that is that they shall condition themselves HUGH JENNINGS so that no further strenuous work will be necessary after the season starts. In other words, to get into such condi tion that after a certain period players can devote their time and attention to the perfecting of team work and not be burdened with any superfluous flesh or strained muscles. A fellow with a sore arm cannot keep his mind on the signals, and a man may begin thinking how his Charley horse hurts and lose a ball game. Of course, when this Is accom plished there Is also the essential re quirement essential In a ball player, and that is that he shall be able to arise to the situation when It presents itself and show the necessary stamina and nerve to carry him through these trying periods. The general public does not know how much courage, moral and physical. Is necessary to carry a player through a season, or the heavy strain under which he la bors at all times. Plenty of time should be given over to figuring out the intricate problems oi me game and studying up the good points and weaknesses of opposing players. Striving to overcome honest ly any little defects he may have will do more to make a successful player than all the instructions and advice that may be given by a manager, coach or fellow player. The player who forgets the game when he takes off his uniform is not a good player, and the one who sits all evening ar guing with a fellow on some point of play generally outlasts him and be comes a better man for himself and his team. Summing it all up, it really Is up to the player himself, after he becomes a major league man, as to whether he is going to become a big factor in the game or remain just a mediocre play er. Many players are satisfied when they reach the major league and for get that they must continue to ad i vance or go back, and self-satisfaction has sent more good men back to the minor leagues than any other element j in the game. No man ever became a i star who did not give the greater part of his time to the study of the game from all angles, and he must keep it up or the ones- who do study will beat him out. The player who thinks he knows enough is a failure before he ^ starts. Good arms, legs, bands and i feet cannot play ball if they are dis | connected from the brain. Mitchell Studies the Game. The Naps never had a man more willing to learn the game than Willie Mitchell, who Jim McGuire Is confi dent will develop into one of the best ! left-hand pitchers in the country. Willie only left school a year ago, and liis two months’ experience in the Texas league didn't give him enough j time to get hep to all the many fine ! points of the game. He spends con J siderable time every day studying a j rule book. He reads the records of players In all leagues, in addition to rile work of making himself letter per fect in the rules. Murray's Claim Settled. The claim of William J. Murray against the Philadelphia National league baseball club has been adjust ed at a meeting between Thomas J. L>r.ch. president of the National league; former Manager Murray and officials of the Philadelphia club. The | terms of the settlement of the claim, j which was for the uncompleted term , of his contract as manager and for back salary, were not made public. Walsh Breaks His Hoedoo. Big Ed Walsh, the great pitcher of the Chicago Sox. was under a hoodoo until the team met the Detroit Tigers for their second game in Chicago. It took fifteen Innings to trim Jennings' , men, but Walsh persevered even with the men behind him playing a ragged game. He struck out Bush, the star shortstop of the Detroits, five times In the game and the great Ty Cobh whiffed twice. Cubs’ Boss Escapes Fine. The national baseball commission has decided that the owner of the Chi cago Cubs need not pay the $200 fine assessed for sending a contract to Johnny Kling while the catcher was under suspension. The commission decided that It wotrfd not be fair to punish Mr. Murrhy, as It was neccs | sary for him to send the contract in ' order to hold the player, whose old i contract had expired.

Was Used Many Years Ago as Collecting Station. Boston.—The old toil house h* East Braintree, on the south bank of Fore river, is one of the few structures of the kind which are still standing tn the territory of greater Boston. A ferry was established at this potnt at a date which corresponds with the first settlement of Braintree. Charles Francis Adams has said that ta_——> Toll House at East Braintree. the rate of carriage was “a penny for each person and three pence for each horse." Another local historian has left a record "that near the Fore river stood the toll house where the singers met. Here the toll keeper lived, had his house rent free, was paid a small sal ary, and opened the gates so that one could pass through upon paying four pence or six and one-quarter cents. He also hoisted the draw for the craft that went up and down the river.” HEDGING ABOUT YOUNG FOLKS Freedom of the Library Not a Good Thing to Allow the Rising Generation. A recent writer, in referring to the traditionally divergent attitudes of the English-speaking and the contt- ; nental worlds toward literary rett- | cenee. has said that in England and America it has been the custom to tie up literature in order to give young people the freedom of the library, while elsewhere it has been custom- j ary to turn literature loose and to tie up the young. The result, he adds, is that we have developed preeocoua young people and an insipid literature and they a precocious literature and insipid young people. Which is a wit- \ ty summing up of a tangled situation. | Vnhappilv, like the man and wife who respectively preferred cotton and linen sheets and who. after much acri monious argument, “compromised" on cotton, we in America seem to be by the way of granting a certain liberty to literature without placing a corr^ sponding restraint upon the browsing of the immature. And we are thus creating a problem with which every conscientious commentator upon cur rent literature finds himself constant ly faced, namely, upon whom—the w-riter, the critic, or the parent—rests the responsibility of safeguarding the reading of the young? Personally. K seems to me that there Is but one answer: That the responsibility for the physical diet of childhood and for the intellectual diet of adolescence rests upon the same shoulders; that there ts no more reason for turning a girl of 15 loose in a public library than for giving a boy of seven the run of the Jam and medicine chest; no more excuse, in a family with balf-grown members, for leaving adult literature on the sitting-room table than for leaving adult razors on the nursery floor at an earlier stage of the same family’s development.— From an article in Everybody’s Mage sine. She Was an Innocent Victim. Everyone In that part of the ear smiled except the man who did it and the girl who was under the hat. He wouldn't let himself, and she did not ! know anything about it He was a plain, quiet man. apparently of the higher type of mechanic. She was young and pretty and had one of the enormous new hats, with correspond ingly enormous pins stuck in at vari ous angles. She was In one of the cross seats and he was standing be hind her. Without moving a muscle of his face he drew from his pocket a folding footrule. carefully measu-ed the expanse of the brim and let every- i one around see that It was full 35 inches. Then he laid the ruler along the projecting end of a hatpin and i beyond the crown.

The science of botany has been ! greatly advanced by the development of what may be called the sociologv i of plants—that Is. the study of their j relations to one another as well as their adjustments to surroundings. ' Botanists recognise that plants are not scattered haphazard over the globe, but are organized Into definite communities. A plain has its plant so ciely. all the members of which tail 1 Into their proper places. A swamp forest consists of trees possessing a certain social relationship and differ ing from those that form a forest on dry land. There is progression from one social organization of plants to another. A lily pond may give place to a swamp shrubs, and this again to a swamp forest of tamarack, pines and hemlock. So societies of plants on dry land succeed one another as tha conditions change. Tha Comet*! Finder Was a Great Man. Edmund Halley was a very great man.
