COFFEE AND LAW.
J. G. Cohen Wants His Property Back
IN Good Shape.

The Customs Bureau and ]. c.
Cohen are in the midst of an interest
ing dispute. High Sheriff Brown was
called into the matter and a suit will
probably result. Cohen came out vic
torious in suit over a shipment of
coffee, which had been consigned to
him. The coffee was seized at the
time of former suit, and has been
held in custody ever since. When
Attorney General Dole finally gave
Cohen an order for the coffee, it was
turned over to him in bad state of
preservation. Mr.. Cohen claims that
the coffee is totally ruined, as is also
large number of cups and saucers
which were shipped as a prize. The
broken crockery and the damaged
coffee aggregate a total of 1856. so loss.
according to the estimation of Mr..
Cohen. AS the damage was incurred
under the Hawaiian Republic rule the
matter is still more complicated. Cohen
will probably sue the Hawaiian Ter
ritory as the successor.

Amos Rusie, the great Hoosier thun-

the pitchers art to reporters. He
says "A slow ball, when mixed up
with great speed, is most effective If
the change of pace Is so disguised as
to fool the batter. 1t does not do to
telegraph your intentions or the ball
will go soaring over the bleachers-
from off the old wagon tongue Ex-
actly the same preliminary motions
should be gone through with as If to
send in your swiftest ball For this
delivery l hold the ball loosely in my
hand, holding 1t with my thumb and
little finger. The ball will at times
almost seem to hang in the air, and
the batter, who is looking for a sing
ing swift one, makes a vicious swipe
before the ball gets to him. The
change of pace is used mostly when
the batter has two strikes and is
worked up to the anxious pitch. Moth
ing pleases a pitcher more than to
fool batter with his Slows To give
an out curve to the ball | take the
same grip with the first two fingers
as for the straight ball. The thumb,
however, with which the twist which
causes the ball to curve is given, Is
brought up in touch with the ball with
tight grip. Then, with a long, slow
preliminary swing, l give slight side
motion to my hand with a decided
snap to my wrist just at the instant
the ball leaves my hand. | endeaVor,
Of course, to hide my right hand as
much as possible from the batter and

as for a straight ball. l can get just
as much speed with my curves as my
straight which in consequence has
proved my most successful ball"

New York's Lobster Pots"

The lobster potts." as the players
of the New York team persist in call

grounds. A player shuts himself in
the box stripped to the buff. He seats
himself on a shelf prepared for the
purpose, shoves his head through the
hole in the lid and shouts to an at
tendant, Let er CO." There is hiss
ing OF steam, wild shrek from the
player and then a gasp of content

Its parboiling work and locates the
stiffness and soreness. Soon the pers-
piration begins to ooze from every
pore and the winter kinks are gradu-
ally dissipated and the rusty knee and
arm joints work on their hinges with
rejuvenated vigor. A half hours
steaming and the player emerges from
the box as rosy red as a Baldwin APP

the player is a new man, with all signs

the days of baseball degeneracy would

Tom Corcoran was talking about
teaching youngsters how to improve in
the fine arts of the game. He said:

those departments of play, how he
