A unique golf club was discovered re
cently, In the southwest country, some
where In Texas. The organisation boasts
of a membership numbering twenty-five.
and yet with but a single exception not
one of them has ever seen a real golf
shot. The course Is a little grove of
trees, bounded by a private hedge, and
on the two acres these men have "laid
them out" a nine-hole approaching course.
The one man who had seen golf played
Is a diminutive Engltithman, who once
witnessed some play over the Iloylake
course, nesr Liverpool, but his knowledge
of the game Is extremely limited.
Not only have these men never seen
golf played, but their only conception
has been gleaned from a very dilapidated
book of rules.

Peters complimented the Sportsmen's

DOES NOT CHASE EASY MONEY
Volumes have been written around the
name of Hans Wagner by enthusiastic
bsse ball scribes, and yet It is doubtful
If full Justice hae ever been done to the
subject. Player, have come and play
ers have gone, others will come and
they, -too, will depart from the lime- '
light, but It Is doubtful If the national
pastime will ever produce another
character so picturesque, so Interesting
as the Flying Dutchman of the Pltte
burgh Buccaneers.
Honors galore have come to the big
Teuton, and he haa worn them all grace
fully. He Is the same Honus t!ay that
he was when he first broke Into the big
league quiet, unassuming, detesting the
fawning adulation of the base ball "bugs"
and thinking only of how he can best
serve the man who pays his salary.
There Is certainly a big lesson for other
athletes In the career of the first cltlsen
of Carnegie, Pa., and an example In his
life which any man might well emulate.
The official fielding averages of the
National league, recently Issued, brought
out the fact that Wagner led the short
stops of the parent organisation during
the campaign of 1915. It la true that the
old boy didn't accept as many chances
as some of the younger men filling the
position,' but his percentage of chances
per game was great enough to show that
he was on the Job all the time.
He took part In 131 games, had 299 put
outs, S96 assist, and thirty-eight errors,
a total of 731 chances, and an average of
,M8. Davy Bancroft, the young; sensa
tion with the Phillies, was classed as
one of the niftiest short fielders In the
league last season, and yet In 1S3 con
tests Bancroft handled only 893 chances,
practically the same aervage of chance,
per game aa Wagner had.
In the averages Honus ranked higher
than Charley Heraog of the Reds; Walter
Maranvllle of the Boston Brave, and
other, who were classed as great work
er. In their own department.
However, the cold figure, fall to come
anywhere near showing the real value of
Wagner to the Pittsburgh team. It Is
doubtful if there Is another player In
baae ball today upon whom hi. team',
chance, for victory depend so largely as
do Pittsburgh', upon Wagner.
Team le Ballt Amssd Him.
For years Fred Clarke built his defense
and much of his offense about the big
German. It haa become an axiom with
local fan. that the Pirate, go as goea
Wagner. That la. Honu. exerts such an
Influence upon his mate, that they are
only normal when he la among them.
Eliminate him from the lineup and the
whole outfit act. like a flock of lo.t
sheep, not knowing where to go.
During the last two year. Wagner's bat
ting has fallen off. That la. he has not
been able to break Into the select circles
of .300 hitters, but no pitcher In the league
will be willing even today to admit that
Wagner Is an easy batsman to dispose of.
Indeed, during the last Mason, he was
Intentionally passed on a number of oc
casion, when runner, were on bases.
However, there's no getting away from
the fact that slowly but surely Wagner's
lamps are becoming dim. He does not
show the old-time ferocity at the bat, and
does not take the chances against oppos
ing twlrlcrs that he did when a younger
man.
On the other hand, old Father Time haa
apparently been unable as yet to slow
Wagner up In his fielding. He still cover
a lot of ground, and handle, with appar
ent ease chances which would make an
ordinary shortstop look like a dub.
Honus Is 42, and off the ball field he
looks his age. He Is a grtssled veteran,
with more than a tinge of gray In his
hair, and weatherbeaten lines In his face.
conversation might help him to laat a lit
tle longer than otherwise In the Oort he
has loved and served so faithfully and
well.
Game la Ills First Love.
Wagner has always given all that he
possessed to base ball. The game haa been
no side Issue, no second consideration
with him. He ha. never tried to cash his
reputation as a diamond .tar In other
lines of work or play.
He has made big money, but he haa
made It all in his profession, and haa
given a dollar', worth of effort for every
dollar he has received.
He could have added thousand, of dol
lars to his Income had he been willing to
accept offers which were made to him
by those who were eageriolfade upon
his prowess.
A big clothing firm In Pittsburgh a few
years ago approached Wagner with a
proposition to pose as head of It. men',
furnishings department during the winter
month..
"I'm no clothing man," wa. Honus' re
ply. "I know absolutely nothing about
the business. I'm a base ball man."
"You don't have to know anything
about the clothing business to fill thla po
sition." he was told. "All we want I. for
you to allow us to use your name la our
advertisements, and for you to stand
sbout In the store a few hour, each day."
"Nothing doing," was Wagner', laconic
comeback. "That would be taking money
under false pretenses."
The big Dutchman ha. had vaudeville
offer, galore, and ha. turned them alt
down. One manager offered him a huge
sum to go upon the vaudeville stage with
Larry Lajole and Ty Cobb. Wagner',
part In the skit was to swing a few times
at a ball at each performance. He would
not have been required to speak a word.
It was "easy money," and Lajole and
Cobb were both eager to get the coin.
Lajole was so deeply Interested that he
made a special trip to Carnegie to try to
get Wagner', consent, but Hoau. refused
point blank, and said he desired no work
of that sort, because he knew he couldn't
earn what was paid him.
Thas has been his policy through life.
He has not hunted the limelight, and ha.
not .ought the honor, which have coma
to him. He ha. devoted himself whole
heartedly and entirely to base ball, not
striving for any personal records, but do
ing his best always for the club.
Jimmy Jerpe, a Pittsburgh scribe, point
ed out last week that tha records had
never done Wagner Justice, Inasmuch as,
when he was In his prime and playing a
class of base ball which no one In the
world could approach, he was always list
ed fourth or fifth among the shortstops,
with a quartet of "record" player, ahead
of him.
It Is a fact that Wagner, willingness
to accept everything that come. hi. way
ha. season after Mason militated against
his piling up a peerless record. But thla
fact has not lowered him one whit In the
I eyes of his admirers, who know him for
I the manner of man he Is, and appreciate
the fact that never in his life did he
sidestep a ball hit in hi. general direc
tion. Wagner isn't going to last forever In
base ball of course. But he still look, to
have a season or two of major league
work in his worn out old system. And
of action a million fans will My, "There
when he departs forever from the scene
goes the greatest player the game ever
knew." And the estimate will be Just
what It should be.
