SLIDING A VALUABLE ASSET
Manager Are Beginning to Realise
The Importance of Raving Men
Train for II.
When nothing else to do, teach them to
slide. o when th regular training stunts
In the spring camps grow monotonous they
hIRe to the gravel pit kept for that purpose.
Ilughle Jsnnings has been trying the
scheme for years, atlhough a Cleveland
writer recently became Imbued with the
loea that It had never been attempted be
fore and would ba Inaugurated Into th
1U camp of the Tigers. It will be the same
old stunt with the same old result.
Now. sliding In base ball-that Is the real
art of sliding- Is Just as "deep" a thing
aa trapes work In a circus. There Is a
vii.nte tot to the feat, and " 'taint every
body that kin do It."
The few who can slide are quickly dis
covered In the practice during th spring
timet hey are generally known to exist
beforehand and rarely does the list fail to
i..n with thla limited number. In other
words, few players learn the finer points
of the art of sliding.
on the eDtrolt club there are but two
men versed In Ihe finer polnta of sliding.
Th yare Bush and Cobb. For two years
Jennings has trird to produce a few mor
of their tpe out of th ranks of his re
cruits and veterans. The -veterans are too
id dto learn, while th recruits, either lose
heart or lack ambition, for It requires much
nerve and vast energy to become ac
quainted with the "Inside dop" on sliding.

That the Cuban fsns were not pleased
With the efforts of Connie Mark's plavers.
th world's champions, who recently wound

following nipping from one of the Havana
pa pars:
"Burlesque bsae hall b ythe Athletics, the
kin dthat would shame any school boy club
I nth lnlted States, wss passed out to
S.nno people who paid their good money at
AlmenfTares park to see th real article.
Spectators were disgusted wtih th showing
of the Athletics. Hundreda quit the grounds
before the second game wss half over.
Their opinion was that th work of the
big leaeiiers was rotten I nth superlative
degree
"Cuban fans ay that they have never
before received such a raw deal from a
big league team tnat was paid a small for
tune to come here. Theer Is no denying
that base ball enthusisam In this city has
received a severe blow berauae of the
Athletics' conduct.
"However, the exhibition of th Athletics
yesterday was only on a par with their paat
performances on this trip. It didn't matter
to them that they had received a princely
guarantee to come her and that they were
facing one of the biggest crowds that ever
turned out on this Island, they simply put
up a bluff at Haying."

only 4 points against the Omaha team.'
while he made i2 in the gam with Ne

STAGG DISCUSSES TRAINING
University of Chicago Coach Ad
vances "American Idea."
FOR REAL ATHLETIC COURSES
MiiN tilve stndeat rhjslral F.dnca.
Hon of nlne In life After
(irndaatlon III Ideal of
Directors.
Coach A. A. Ptasg of the Cniversity of
Chicago has evolved the new "American
Idea" for athletic training In the educa
tional institutions of the land. Department
founded for the present and future welfar
of all the students, with specialised direct
ors and Improved facilities. Is the coach's
plan for the correct physical culture of
college youth.
Coach Stagg's Ideals are embodied in a
report entitled "Some Comments of Physi
cal Education." prepared for the Society of
Directors of Ph steal Fxlueatlon In Col;
leges, of which he Is president. In giving
details for more efficient work In athletic
llnea he emphasized the moral and educa
tional Importance of athletics In centers
of learning.
In addition to caring for the students'
health and morals Coach Stagg recom
mends training that will benefit th col
legians after graduation.
"An Ideal scheme of physical education,
It seems to me, would not b complet un
less It provided the student with the train
ing for recreational exercise In after lif,"
he says. "To that end, therefore, student
should be taught and encouraged to master
with some degree of proficiency swimming,
bowling, hand ball, basket ball, tennis, golf.
hosting, bicycling, horsemanship, etc., so
that he should have a degree of proficiency
In many forms of exercise and recreation."
The maroon teacher's requirements for
directors of physical education are prob-
bly stricter than those enforced In th
majority of colleges. In discussing th Ideal
director, he said:
'I should say, first of all, that that h
should have the Instincts of an educator.
He should have a broad collegiate training
so that he would have breadth of vision.
It would serve him well, If In college h
could specialize In psychology and th
theory of education. H should have nor
mal training in a good school of physical
education, either preceding or following
this with a complete course In medicine,
While in college he should have been In
terested In and closely studied gymnastic
and athletics and participated In them as
much as possible.
"It has been truly said that the physi
cal director has more Influence on student
morals than any other teacher. That then.
Indicates the necessity of the director be
ing a man of high Impulses, of fine per
sonality, fair-minded, sympathetic and
honest. His public and private relations
with students demand frankness with sym
pathy, Justice with firmness and uncom
promising honesty."
CANNON DEFEATEN ON RULING
(Continued from First Page.)
prepared In advance and read from manuscript.-
He held that th new ruls did
not make It mandatory upon the house
to take up the motions to discharge com
mittee, that It simply made such motions In
order, If the house desired to take
them up. 1
Upon thla basis the speaker held that Mr.
Hull and the army appropriation bill had
the right of way and that the motions
provided for under the new rule could not
be Interposed.
Appeals from Derision,
"I appeal from the decision of th chair,"
cried Mr. Fitzgerald.
"I move to lay the motion on the table,"
Interposed Representative Payne of New
York, republican leader of the house.
The Payne motion waa th first test of
strength and It was defeated by a vot
of 1M to 1U4. Then followed an acrimonious
debste upon the ruling.
When the vote finally was taken on the
appeal from Speaker Cannon's decision
inaurgems ana an but one
of the democrats present voted against the
speaker. The result was the defeat of
his ruling by a vote of Hi to 126.
Fourteen members answered present, but
did not vote because of pairs with absent
memoers.
in repuoncans who voted with th
democrats against the speaker were
Cary, Wisconsin; Cassldy, Ohio; Davidson
Wisconsin; Fish, New York; Goods, Iowa;
oronna. North Dakota; Haugen, Iowa

ford. Wisconsin, and Steenerson, Minne
sota. Representative Saunders of Virginia was
the only democrat voting against Mr. Flti
geiald In the appeal from the chair's de
cision. Slatua of Rale Settled.
The result of the vote Is to settls defi
nitely th status of tho new rule. The
plan had been outlined before the session
opened to attempt to set tho army appro-
pitatlon bill In ahead of the motions to
lake bills away from committees.
Representative Norrls of Nebraska, who
leu tne ntnt that resulted In wresting
of the rules committee away from control
of the speaker last March, i-ald the intent
of the rule had been plain and that those
who favored it diu not propose to see Its
leal lone taken away fiom it.
The rule that brought about the test
of strength and tne defeat of the regular
furce tcHlav is the last change that was
made in the i ode of rules of th house
laat session. It was prepared by Champ
Clark, the minority leader, and passed
Us I June Willi but one dissenting vote.
Its purpose was to give a means of get
ling bills away from committees when the
Ullei attempted to "amoiher" them.

later overturned on Mr. FltsgeraldH ap

amendment fixes th hsals of bona member

Senator Hal took the statement as a text
for a review of the. legislative situation. In
the course of which he said that unless

The house passed a bill today authorising
th dropplDg of army officers from th
rolls when they have been absent without
leave for more than three months. This
would remove from tb army list Captain
Peter C. Ilalns. now serving a sentence for
the killing of William E. Annts, a civilian,

At th time of th trial, which was a
sensational one, it was discovered that the
War department had no authority under

Dissolved Forbidding: Him to Orase
Cattle on Reserve.
WASHINGTON. Jan. lS-An attsik on the
conservation policies Inaugurated by th
Roosevelt admlnlatratlon mor serloua
probably than any heretofore made will be
contained In an appeal next week to the
supreme court of the l'nlted States to de
clare unconstitutional the creation of the
big forest reservations of th west.
Failure to win on this proposition Is not
to end the campaign of the antl-conserva-tlonlsts.
They have prepared to fight a
step further against the alleged Independ
ence of the forest reservations from the
state laws on the theory that the federal
government In creating them holds the
land merely as a big land proprietor and
not with any perogatlves of sovereignity.
The fight has arisen out of the attempt of
the fnlted States to enjoin Fred Light, a
Colorado cattleman, from allowing his cat
tle to trespass on the Holy Cross forest
reserve In that state. Despite Light's claim
that the formation of the reserve without
consent of the state Is In violation of the
federal constitution and that action for
trespass could not be maintained under the
Colorado laws unless the land In question
had been fenced, the circuit court of the
United States for the district of Colorado
Issued the Injunction.
The case was appealed to the supreme
court of the l'nlted States.
It haa been advanced for oral argument
for Monday. January 23.
Colorado haa Joined tn the fight against
the federal government. Attorney General
John T. Harnett heads the corps of attor
neys carrying on the fight for Light.
Among the attorneys are James H. Teller
and former Senator Henry M. Teller. An
outline of the arguments they will present
to the court has Just arrived In Washing
ton In a brief.

New York's Missing- City Chamberlain
Returns Calm and Smiling
Will Not Resign.
NEW YORK, Jan. IB-Charles H. Hyde,
New York's city chamberlain, missing for
thirty-eight days, arrived from Florida
this afternoon and alighted from his trsln
Jaunty, calm and smiling. Of the closing
of two bsnks containing tHOO.noo In city
funds, of which he was custodian, he
would say nothing. Of the graft Investi
gation, now adjourned, he talked more
freely.
Briefly, as far as he was concerned. It
was all "bosh." The Merrltt committee.
It will be recalled, tried for more than a
month to subpoena Hyde as . a witness,
others having testified that he was st an
alleged meeting where an alleged $500,000
corruption fund waa raised In an attempt
to defeat the antl-bettlng bills at Albany.
All this and more Mr. Hyde dented. Th
committee had ample time to get him be
fore he left New York, he said, and he
remained away solely on account of his
health. Passing moat of his time on a
house boat he was out of touch with the
world, he said, knew nothing of the furore
caused by his absence snd did not learn
until Friday last of the closing of the
banks.
Then, he said, he hurried back to his
duty, prepared to be at his desk tomorrow
morning and to stick to his Job. Sug
