(Copyright. 1*10. by Joseph B. Bowles.) I am asked to write bow to win. but the ball player does not learn from that, but gets his lesson from losing. We study our mistakes and try to correct them, and after cor recting and correcting up to near the time the arm wears out some of us get to learn part of the game. There Is no game in the world that offers such a variety of plays and so great a number of ways to make each one. It Is a game of possibilities, and to take advantage of them a player must study his own profession all the time. One might learn it all, but for the fact that the other fellows are studying at the same time, and just when he thinks he knows all about them they switch on him and be must start all over again. I have studied pitching and studied batters ever since 1 was a school boy. and there are times when I think I know less than when I first started. For a pitcher, no matter what curves and speed he may have, I think the most essential thing is tl at he shall IHJssess the keenest power of obser vation. Pitching, in fact, is the one acquired art of baseball. Every other position depends more upon the natu ral ability of the player, while any one with a good arm. a free motion and a fair brain can become a pitcher through constant practise and study. Whether he is a success or not de pends largely upon what kind of a brain he has and how rapidly he can think. A boy who aspires to become a pitcher ought to begin early—and to begin caring for his arm fiom the first. I believe four out of every five school boys who start to pitch ruin their arms before they really learn anything about pitching. .As 1 under stand it. this is intended to be merely a few hints to pitchers, and I am try ing to tell boys not how the big lea guers pitch curves, but how boys who aspire to be big leaguers ought to start. Most of them begin pitching with full power, and as soon as they learn to pitch an outcurve they pitch It all the time until 'the arm weakens and a baseball career Is made impos sible I have talked with dozens at «■» "v FRED FALKENBERG. major league pitchers and very few of them pitched when they were "kids." but began late I have watched school boys of fourteen and fifteen cracking their arms. A few hints to these boys may help. In the first place, a bey ought to learn to "warm up" before he starts to pitch. Few do. The pitcher who is going to work In a game ought to start per haps ten minutes before time to play, throwing the ball easily, and with a free swing of the arm and body and gradually increase the speed as the %rm w arms up and the muscles work freely Then he can pitch as hard as he pleases without endangering the arm. If he starts pitching hard with out this preliminary warming up he will ruin the shoulder sooner or later Instead of developing and strengthen ing It. and have a sore arm all the time Another thing, he should not pitch too many curve balls. The first thing a boy ought to learn Is that a curve It not effective unless other balls are being pitched. Control is the first es sential. 1 know we won college pen nants for years because our coach taught us two things: First, that the pitcher should get control and pitch at the plate steadily, and. sec ond. that the batters should learn to wait The success of our team was in the fact that our pitchers seldom gave bases on balls and had control enough to put the ball over. A boy ought, however, to remember that when the other team Is swinging at bad balls not to pitch them good ones, and that a straight ball a foot away from the plate will be missed as often as a curve Is. A boy who will take care of his arm. avoid straining It and practise slowly and steadily, tossing the ball either at a mark or to his catcher and striving always to get control, rather than speed and curves, can make a pitcher of himself. The other things will come naturally and If he has the arm and the control he will last long enough to learn more ONE OF CARNEGIE'S “FINOS’*! m wasn't Ion* afterward, according to tb# yarn, that Mr. Peacock waa dis covered sobbing in a corner of one of the Pittsburg clubs.

ARE QUEENS OF HOMES AS WELL AS EMPIRES Qjnzzsf fv VKR since Queen Victoria,t some fifty or sixty years ! ago. roundly spanked a small son who was cutting up didoes—and that right ] in public in the midst of some big procession or other—the English throne ! has set about the most j forceful example of strict attention on the part of _ its queens to the principal business of womanhood that the mod ern world has seen Not that publicly chastising a naugh- : ty child is of itself an index of the right sort of motherhood, by any means. But in these particular cir cumstances it certainly was. For it i served to shew the entire world that the queen of Great Britain and em press of all India put nothing, not even royal decorum, above the busi ness of motherhood. She did not. as many mothers might have done, allow the offender to keep on in his evil course until the royal parade was at an end. and then get down to maternal first principles. Nor did she loftily wave him out of £iBbt. as we fondly Imagine all kings and queens may. when brought face to face with an unpleasantness of whatsoever sort. Instead, she spanked sonny with her own right royal hand The act was simple, human and ! illuminating, even ff a jar to that Eng lish hallmark of good-breeding, deadly composure under all circumstances. Queen \ ictoria set the example of supreme maternalness at a time when to be motherly and domestically in- ; cllned was not considered In the best of social form. Queen Alexandra after : her. and now Queen Mary, continue te i make a fashion of it. as much as any- J thing can be made a fashion of. that requires all that is host in one to perform. Makers of Homes. In trying to get hold of the salient characteristics erf Alexandra, now called the Queen Mother by her own wish, and Queen Mary, upon whose shoulders the royal mantle worn by Alexandra for nine years now falls, j the curious fact presents Itself that they have almost no existence outside the role of mother and housewife. That is. whatever distinction they have attained has been through being devoted mothers, splendid home-ma kers. companions to their husbands w hen companionship was desired of them, and conservers always of the name they took in marriage. While the English people have loved her. their feeling Is nearer reverence than fellowship. She has stood alone :n a little world of her own. aureoled by pure goodness. Perhaps the fact that she is more ' than slightly deaf has caused this separateness from human foibles. Per haps it has saved her pain. too. for people may whisper, but they will not shout about scandal Alexandria is a lover of horses and dogs, particularly dogs At one time ‘ she was the champion woman tandem driver of England She adores music and flowers. In Edward's dead hands she folded one white rose before be . was shut forever from the world. The qu“en who succeeds Alexandra on the throne. Mary. Is the first Brit ish consort that has sat on the throne of England for hundreds of years. While resembling Alexandra in the most womanly of her traits—h)Te of home and children—she gives every promise of being a more aggressive factor in the final summing up cf the reign In which she figures Personality of New Queen. She and her husband have led so se j eluded a life that very little has been heard of their private affairs—but tt appears that she is renowned as a de termined patroniser of English textile , manufactures, refusing to wear any thing not woven in British realms. ; She is no sportswoman. She likes to skate, but will skate on nothing but natural ice. She is a gentlewoman, and will have none but gentlewomen about her, so "freak dinners” and cotillon presents running into four or ' five figures are about as likely to win her sufferance as murder or arson. Queen Mary is very good to the poor, liberally aiding basars, etc. She has guarded her privacy Jealously, has reared five splendid children, erne of whom is a girl, and has allowed her self to be photographed In an enga gisg picture with the young prince of Wales riding pickaback on her shoul ders. Queen Mary was brought up in a straight-laced, rigid fashion by her mother, who sent her to bed instead of to parties. Mary is a cousin, twice removed, of King George. She was engaged to the duke of Clarence, the heir apparent, who died In I89!L Against Alexandra's will, but greatly to the Joy of Queen Victoria and the English people, who longed to see an England princess on the throne, be ing against any more German alliances for the reigning house, she was won over to an engagement with her for mer betrothed’s younger brother. George They were married on July 6, ISJC. when Mary was about twenty six years old Their Realm the Home. K is a curious fact from this point *>f view that there is no part of such a role not open for emulation to the poorest wife and mother among ail the subjects of these queens Both Queen Alexandra and Queen Mary are famous throughout Great Britain as splendid housekeepers, ex quisite needlewomen, practical motb ers. with thorough understanding of the care of nurseries, and educators of their young children. As house wives and mothers they have lived with a single-minded devotion, not surpassed by the most rigid of British matrons. To be sure, no evidence appears that either of these women is highly endowed intellectually, or could by force of her brilliancy and wit reign over salons But they might have tried. That their natural promptings have been to devote themselves to home and children indicates much, however, and the force of example has been something tremendous Helen Vacaresco. the Roumanian kcua vi .Airxiuiuia 1U an youth She pictures her as of fairy like beauty, with the loveliest of blue eyes, the sunshiniest of golden hair, and the walk of a goddess Lady Randolph Churchill's '•Remin iscences" bring her nearer, for Lady Churchill is tee brilliant a woman to be satisfied with drawing merely a lay figure of royalty. She spent some time at Sandringham with the prince and princess of Wales, and her de lineation of the woman whose dress ing table was so crowded with pic tures of her children and bibelots that she had no place for comb or toilet articles, has the human touch. An aged white parrot occupied the stand of honor in the middle of Alexandra's dressing-room, where he was as cross as only an old parrot can be I July Churchill tells how the prin cess used to rap unexpectedly on the door of a guest's room at night .os tensibly to ask If the guest was com • ortable. but really to speak a little word of sympathy, advice or encour agement. according to what had oc curred during the day to necessitate It The princess had abnormally keen eyes for sorrow and trouble, she says* and won all hearts by her unfailing sympathy. Haa Known Sorrow. In 1871 Princess Alexandra lost a child. Later in the year Edward lay almost at the point of death with ty phoid. During his sickness a stable boy was stricken with the same dis ease and died Alexandra visited his mother, attended the funeral, and gave the stone erected over his grave. It bears this legend, which shows how gracious her tact was: "One was taken, and the other was left " There are numberless stories of her simple goodness of heart and lavish generosity. When she came to England her bountifulness of spirit made difficul ties for her. She gave to all who sought and could not believe, until time demonstrated, that people were preying on her well-known kindness The story of her betrothal to Ed ward. debonair prince of Vales, has a tender touch of romance, for he fell in love with her picture. She was the daughter of a Danish prince, whose house gave an empress to Russia and a king to Greece, but her youth was spent quietly In domestic pursuits. Her father was not then king of Den mark The home was a simple one* in which frugality and simple living prevailed There was a remarkable bond of love between parents and I children, however, that sweetened all1 the short shrifts necessary, and lasted -through all the after years unbroken, save where death Intervened. This is- in part demonstrated by Alexan dra's recently establishing her sum mer home near Copenhagen with her sister, the dowager empress of Rus sia. Here, it Is ssid. she will retire, In companionship with her sister. Edward and Alexandra were mar ried in l?t3. when she was but nine teen. in all the years since then, during which she has had to pass through the ordeal of getting ac quainted with the English people, and has had to maintain a tremendously difficult social role as princess and queen, not one single social bl under has been charged against her. She has shown herself to be "a woman of singularly blameless life, loving and lovable." as one chronicle* puts it You cannot review ter life ! without getting the impression that i generally prevails about her In Erg - land, that she Is a -woman of superla • tiTe goodness of character And not - without keen intelligence, er she - could never have picked her steps so carefully as neither to give offense nor seem to be offended. For ST years the wife of a prince whose scope, both by inclination and circumstance, was entirely social, a j "good fellow" in the w idest sense of the word, a man of boundless energy. | superlative good nature and eager ad miration for brilliance and wit in I either man or woman. Alexandra main ' tained a character so self-contained, ; so truly pure and good. that, as one writer says, a veil seems to have fallen between herself and the rest or the world, so that not even her most ' spontaneous act brings her near to common human nature. Tasks Ahead of King George. About King George's past there hangs a romantic rumor of a mor ganatic marriage with the daughter of Admiral Seymour. He has made a good husband, however, being with out any good fellowship or club no tions whatever. He Is no "mixer" in : the sense that King Edward was They say that while many members at his father's court did not know him by sight when he succeeded King Edward, his was a familiar figure In i the councils of the workingmen cf the East End. However that may be, it certainly “listens good" In the pass in which King George finds himself today, called upon to stem the tide of one of the greatest political revolts that Great Britain has ever known. In her pictures Queen Mary has the face of a little puritan, which she is said to be Her training has not been such as to liberalize her views social ly. at any rate in the way that Queen Alexandra's have been—or shall we say that Queen Alexandra has allowed it to appear? Queen Mary was born to a great position. Her mother was a favorite English princess and the English people have never concealed that of all women she would be the choice for England's queen. Married to a man sharing her cuiet tastes, her lack of particular care for fashion and the ostentation of : wealth—In fact, of everything that I King Edward stood for. including un paralleled popularity—it is but natural ; ro believe those who predict a start ling reversal to the manners of Queen Victoria's court in England: ehieftv in 1 the rigid exclusion from royal circles of all persons who cannot back up ' brilliancy, beauty or richness with blue blood and unspotted escutcheons. • Already Queen Mary takes out a piece of needlework or a bit of cro cheting for the poor after dinner in the drawing-room and works at it standing up. for she believes that it is good for the health to stand up after dinner Of course, the only thing for the . ladies of the court to do is to fol.aw i suit. So they, many of whom gathered around the pleasant bridge tables ot ! evenings heretofore, stand also and . teach their stiff, unaccustomed fingers ! the gentle art of wielding the ladylike ! needle again. It is probably going to be a thor j oughly well-bred court at St. James ; hereafter, with a blue-blooded attend ance There wilt be no surprises in | the way of introductions therein of | celebrities in arts not commonly rec ; ognized as polite. For which reason by many It is feared that ft wilt be a [ much duller court, too. Which, of : course, remains to be seen.
