The American association is fcav t* a real race of it at present. Baltimore has sold Catcher Egan to -he I*t ..ace ; hla Athletics for fall de livery It is rumored that the officials haTt pen* hack to the old baseball in use las' season. No team in the American league has suffered more from injuries this year than the White Sox.

There might be s lot of bidding for the services cf Magee if the Philadel phia club would only indicate in some way that an offer would be considered. Luderus might be a lot of help to the Cubs right now if they had him. bat President Murphy is certain that Safer is better than the Philiie young ster. SOME UTILITY BALL TOSSERS Manager Fred Tenney of the Boston Natiorais, Telis of Some Remark able All-Round Players. "Just as a chain is only as strong is its weakest link, sc a ball club is cniy as strong as its substitutes." says Fred Tenney, manager of the Boston Nationals “Therefore, it will be just as necessary to use a careful dis crimination in the choice of substi tutes as in the selection of the regular men. A few years ago, when baseball was in its infancy, the players could nearly all play the different positions. Today there are comparatively few w ho can do this. "This is the age of specialization, and nowhere is it more aptly illus trated than on the ball field Men train theno-elves ior perfection in cne position, disregarding all others. Oc casionally a man appears who seems »ble to accommodate himself to any : hange of position. "Such a was Shoch. of the old Brooklyn club Jimmy Stafford was another player almost a replica of Shoch. When in New York he was played in about every position in the field. Lowe. oi Heston, was one of those baseball phenomenons who could play any position on the team in first-class j style. Starting as a catcher, then go ing to the outfield he made a great record in the minor leagues Coming to Poston in 1S90 as utility mnn. he was soon played regularly cn account j of his heavy batting He was shifted (o second base when Quinn was sold. ] Here he became one of the greatest in the business. His last year in Pos- I ton found him a guardian of third base .Again he ranked with the fore most. While Lowe was at home any* where, he could not be used as a util ity man. as he was far too strong a regular, firing the last few years of playing he pas used in the utility role with marked success His work in that capacity belpetj Detroit to win many a game. "Strang was one of the bright lights of the utility men. He reverted to the Shoch-Stafford type, never good as a regular, but excellent as an occasional player. Wagner. like Lowe, can play any where with marked success. Indeed he has filled nearly all positions for his club, but his is another case oi being too valuable as a regular to per mit of using him as utility man. Tn doubtedly he would shine as such, and when he begins to slow down will probably be used in that capacity. Chicago for many years kept Hof tr.an as utility man. even after he had demonstrated how strong a player be reajly was New York new- has a young fellow who will bear lots of watching lest he wrest the laurels from other utility players. I refer to Fletcher, who, in the short time he has been in the league, has made very rapid strides toward the top. Of all these men I would select Lowe as the first substitute, with Kof mac as a close second choice. "As an all-star, all-time National league club I should pick the follow ing line-up: Hamilton, center field: Keeler, right field: McCarthy, left field: Wagner, shortstop; Chance, first base; Collins, third base: Evers, sec ond base; Penaett. Kling. Presnahan, catchers; Mathewsoc. Rrown. Nichols. Phillip;. McGir.nity. pitchers; Lowe, Hofman, subs. MILLERS GET ALTIZER BACK “Dare Devil.” Given Thorough Trial by Cincinnati Team. Is Returned to Minneapolis. Dave Altizer managed to stick It cut with the Reds for just half of the season, and now returns to the Min neapolis American association club. The "Dare Devil” was given a thor ougc chance, but fell down, and with Dave (“Dare Devil”) Altizer. Recruit Esmond promising so well Griff listened to the plea of Joe Can tilloc and shiped the former White Sox back to his 1910 home. Sunday Baseball Uplift. Sunday baseball by professional teams is distinctly a helpful moral force, according to Chief of Police Cowles of New Haven, Conn. In re ply to a demand from church or ganizations that he suppress the Sun day games at Lighthouse Point in the suburbs. Chief Cowles says: "Sunday baseball by professionals will continue at Lighthouse Point so long as the game is conducted in an orderly manner, because it draws young men from the streets and les sens the number of arrests for drunkenness and disorder. Many young men are attracted to the shore by the Sunday games who would oth erwise loiter on street corners, and from my own personal observation I know it lowers the number of cases in the courts Monday." Magner With Highlanders. Cap Magner, former leader of the Cornell nine, has been signed to play with the Highlanders. He is a mid get in size, being smaller than Bush of the Tigers, but he can cover the ground around second base just aa well as a big fellow. Cardinals Not Jarred. The railroad wreck did not even jar the Cardinals enough to make them lose s single game yet, says the Chicago Journal. Instead of the Giants and the Phillies, the Cuba will have to look out for the St Louis men for the rest of the summer. M71L%imfiHT ^ - ■■ JAP WAR HERO IN AMERICA Admiral Togo, the Japanese war hero who catue to this country as the cation's guest, is described by a Jap anese official as one oi the simplest and gentlest of men. ••You would hardly imagine, to see the small, slender figure, that you were in the presence o: the greatest master of naval strategy that cur navy has pro duced. or that the world has seen in modern tunes ” Marshal Oyama, General Kuriki, Ad miral Kamimura, Admiral Yamomoto and Admiral Tcge were all born in the city of Kagoshima. Togo had just grown to youth s es tate and was fighting with a broad sword when a messenger came from the mikado ordering him to become a naval officer. Ke packed his few- be longings and jaurneyed to England. When the Chinese-Japanese war was threatening Togo was captain of a b cruiser. He halted an English ship with 1,000 Chinese soldiers aboard, and when surrender was refused, sunk it. This act started the war. When the war with Russia broke cut he was commanding a Japanese fleet. His daughter came to pay him a final visit, and he sent back word by her: "1 nm well and happy. They must not distract my mind by sending letters." At an entertainment for the officers of his fleet just before the memora ble battle of the Sea of Japan his officers found the admiral sitting alone, the sword of hari on his knees. They understood this meant victory or death. In Japan Toco ranks as no naval man in the United States ranks today. They love him over there next to the emperor. IS A PIONEER IN ECONOMICS In these days when so much is said and done for the conservation of our natural resources there has sprung up a new school of economists who are preaching the doctrine that in labor every effort, every expenditure of muscular or mental energy, should count for the utmost and not go to waste. A pioneer in this school is Frederick Winslow Taylor, who re cently appeared by invitation before a committee of congress to explain how the application of his theories in creases the productiveness of work men from 15 to 20 per cent. Mr. Taylor is a native of German town. Pa., and has risen to his present prominence through his own efforts. He is a patternmaker and machinist by trade and a mechanical engineer by profession. In 1S7S he entered 'he employ of the Midville Steel Com pany. Philadelphia, and was success ively gang boss, assistant foreman, foreman, master mechanic, chief draughtsman and cniet engineer. In 1819 he took up the work of organiz ing management in manufacturing establishments, in shop, office, accounting and sales departments, and since then he has put his theories into operation in many business organizations, including steel works, wood pulp works, etc. He is the owner of about 100 patents on his inventions. One who worked with him some years ago when he was in charge of the Bethlehem Steel Works recalls how he used to tell the workmen not to hit the anvil after hitting the heated metal, as is the habit of their kind— that if they had ary energy to expend in extra taps of the hammer they would better hit the heated metal and let it count for something. The men missed the ring of the anvil anc. did not like the innovation The theory that greater results industrially may be obtained with no greater outlay of energy is one which is gaining ground fast and if this the ory is correct and is properly applied generally it will mean a larger output tin many lines of production with no increase in real labor. POPULAR WITH THE FARMERS The champion long-distance cabinet officer is Secretary of Agriculture "Tama” Jim Wilson, fcr he has been holding down that job constantly since 1897, while he has seen more than a hundred other cabinet officers come in and retire to private life. "Tama" Jim is the friend of the farm ers and the farmers seem to be friends of his. Secretary Wilson has made the de partment of agriculture the greatest instrumentality of practical every-day helpfulness to 40 per cent, of the peo ple in the United States. He has ex periment stations finding out how to make dry farming pay where there is only ten inches of moisture a year; and they are finding it out. too. He brought the durum wheat from North Africa, and in the regions fcrmerlv too dry to be cultivable it has added millions of bushels to our annual wheat crop He sent to Siberia anil there, far up in the north, found alfalfas that seem to need neither moisture nor warmth to develop pood pasture He brought the finest Cuban tobacco, tested and analyzed the soil in which it grew, got detailed reports of the climatic conditions it required_ and then hunted up the same soil and climate, and proceeded to grow the tobacco in South Carolina. He brought seed of the inimitable Sumatra wrapper-tobacco, searched for a place under the American flag where it would flourish, and found it—in Texas. To prove it, he will hand you a five-cent cigar made of Texas Sumatra and Carolina Cuban filler, if you will ask him; and you will pronounce ir a high-class imported weed. Everybody said hog cholera was incurable, and it cost the farmers tens of millions annually. Wilson's scientists spent ten years on its trail, and they’ve captured the right microbe, nxed up a serum, and put that particular disability on the run. CHOSEN IMPERIAL POTENTATE John Frank Treat, who was elected imperial potentate of the Mystic | Shrine at Rochester. Is a resident of Fargo, N. D., and a member of E! Z&g&l Temple of the Shrine. From ! the four corners of the earth, by : train, boat and automobile, an army ' of 30,000 Shrtners swooped down and planted their tents on the Rochester oasis. From every part of the United States they came and even from far away Scotland were pilgrims to the cradle of Shrtnedom. The Khartoum Temple, from Win nipeg, Man., brought a genuine Scotch : kilties band of bagpipers; the Islam ! Temple of San Francisco had a Chi nese band of 50 pieces; the Los An geles Shriners brought two carloads of California fruits and wines to dis tribute to their eastern friends; the Galveston (Texas) Temple brought two carloads of Mexican burros; Os man Temple of St. Paul had its mil ; Jionaire band, every member of which is a Dusmess or proiessionai man wnose lortune runs Into big figures; El Zagal Temple, from Fargo. N. D., to which the pictured potentate belongs, ; brought a 15-foot loaf of bread and a cowbell of the same dimensions, and. in I fact, every bunch had some novelty to spring. A revolutionary suggestion contained in the address of Imperial Poten tate Fred A. Hines of Los Angeles was that the Shriners should buy 5,00t acres of land somewhere to establish a medca for the organisation where the annual imperial councils should be held. One of his reasons for making this recommendation was that it is now almost impossible for any city tn North America to care for the councils and Its following.
