D0N'Ts FOR RIOTERS.

Don't offer a player money to make a
long hit.
Don't fail to treat visiting players
courteously.
Don't root for the visitors if you can't
pull for the home team.
Don't try to coach the players; they're
paying no attention to you.
| Don't believe that games are thrown or
fixed; you're really silly if you do.
Dom strike the players for passes, be-
cause they're not allowed to give any.
Don't try to roast the players when you
come in on a free pass-if ever you do.
Don't continually fan" (talk basebal)
with the players; they grow weary of
shop"
Don't try to get players to carouse
around at night with you just because
you want to be "a good fellow" they
won't appreciate it.
Don't expect q player to make a
hit every time he goes to bat; a few of
'em fail occasionally.
Don't kick if the Gilt Elges are not
able to hold first place all the time; there
are three other good teams.
Don't ask any of the club people for a
free pass, because if you do you'll get 1t
where the bottle got the cork.
Don expect a player to put up an
er1orless game every day; if he could he
would not be in California.
Don't get your hammer out when a
player makes a miscue; the best of them
occasionally have an off day.
Don't stand in a buggy outside and try
ITO rubber owe the fence: it's a low
trick and the fence is too high now, any
how.
Don't lose yourself and insist upon re-
garding the visiting player as your dead
~ enemy: if there wasn't an opposing
team there'd be no interest to the games.
Don't cultivate a desire to "kill the
umpire" every time you think he makes
a mistake; umpires are human and liable
to err the same as other mortals. Then

THE MIGRATION OF BIRDS.

st. Nicholas: A winged army hum
dreds Of miles long is moving north right
over our heads. 1t travels under cover
Of the night, so that, unless we listen for
the calls Of the regiments, or turn our
telescopes to the moon and see them, as
black specks. crossing it's bright face,
or else so to a lighthouse tower and
watch for them to come to the light, we
will know nothing about the advanc Of
the main army.
But when we go early to the fields and
/ woods, we get exciting hints Of what is
happening in the dark. Squads of feath-
cred soldiers, not there the evening be-
fore, surprise us at every turn. Some
OF them are stopping only for the day to
get food and rest to enable them to 60
on their journey again at night, but
some of them hav come to sta for they
have got back to their old homes where
they built their nests last year.
It is SO exciting to feel the country all
filling up again with life and song, SO
good to see our old friends back, and to
discover new ones with them that we
want to ask each bird a hundred ques-
lions. Where did this army start from?
How did the leaders know the way
home? How did they travel the thou
sands OF miles they had to? 1t makes
us want to know everything there is to
know about this wonderful movement of
the birds, called migration.
A great many of the birds are coming
back from Central America, some as far
as from Southern Brazil in Souh Amer
! lea. The question is. How do they travel
SO far without getting lost? There are
no railroads or steamship lines for them,
blu they have roads that serve them
just as we'll. Some of them ollow the
coast lines north, others keep neal to
| the great ranges of mountains n river
valleys that run generally northward and
southwark.
They fly so high from one to three miles
above the earth-that they can see as
we'll as we could from a balloon o. a
mountaintop: better thar we could for

the dancer succeeds in pleasing the
amusement seekers there is no reason
why she should complain.
I A moment ago I spoke of the light eff
fects, and cannot say too much in regard
to the Importance of this factor if a
dance is to be a successful one. 1t is
undoubtedly true that much that APP
peals to those h Sc this style of dancing
is in the manipulation of the draperies,
but all the rest of the credit is due to the
men who operate the lights for their eff
fec.
To manipulate the lights for one of
these dances alone requires the services
of three men. With the dance that ends
in the climax of a lily bursting into
bloom only the white lights are used, and
the rest of the credit belongs to the
manipulation of the draperies, who attains
these results by the use Of two sticks of
bamboo which have been securely fixed
into the skirt.
In other dances the light effects are
more spectacular. The draperies are
kept in something in the same way. and
the movements Of the body Of the dancer
are very similar, but the lights keep up
their e~ver-changing effects, according to
the requirements Of the dance, and end
in a blaze Of glory. PAPINTA.

LEFT HANDED HlTTERS.

Again, the percentage of left-hand hit
ters in the National League far exceeds
the natural ratio the left-hand hitter
bears to the right-hander. Taking the
entire ball-playing community into con-
sideration, the proportion Of ~left-hand-
ers to right-handers is about one to ten.
In the professional arena it is about four
in ten. This is especially true of the
National League. Of the 200 players who
achieved batting averages in the major
organization last year 60 batted left
handed OF these so one-half batted about
800 and the rest above 300. Of the first
100 batters 46. almost half, We're left
handlers, yet the ~left-handers comprised
less than one-third of the whole. In the
last hundred but Is, almost all of then
pitchers. are found. Of the last so bat
tiers six are left-handers, and of the frs
81 are left-hand batters.
Thus it will be seen that the left -hanf
hitter has a big edge on his right-hant
competitor. In amateur ball he is abou'
one man in ten: in professional ball he i:
Utmost n man in every three. In high,
class batting he is three men in five
Thus the average of left-hand hitters il
the highest professional baseball is som,
500 per cent greater than the percentag,
of left-hand hitters in amateur ball
h would mean that the amateur left
hand hitter has a 6-to-1 better chance t,

right-hand competitor, Or that one am

chance to get into fast company as an
