Double Passenger Service to Continue.

We are pleased to be able to announce
that there is no truth in the reports
that have been circulated that the
double train passenger service is to be
discontinued on the Amador branch
railroad. Hon. E. G. VOORHEES,, on
hearing the report that the old-time
regime was to be revived, wrote to the
railroad company on the subject, and
promptly received a reply to the effect
that there meyer has been any inten.
ton OF reducing the passenger service.
Both morning and afternoon exclusive
passenger trains will be continued right
along, the only freight to be attached
thereto will be of a perishable nature
that demands rapid transportation.
Mr. VOORHEES,, when in Jackson last
Monday, showed representative of the
Ledger letter from the railroad auth
critics to this effect.

4 PITCHERS TRICK.

In a talk on baseball matters In gen
eral recently Jimmy Callahan said to
reporter. Sometimes crowds think "a
pitcher is foolish in throwing so often
to first base To- hold a man close TO the
sack Sometimes they are right but
more often they are wrong was boot
ed at several times In Boston Tor throw
ing five times to first to catch Hamil'
ton. That was during the year he was
having trouble with his knee. You see,
Hamilton. because OF his speed, used to
take one step more of first base than
any other runner / noticed this and
figured that II / could get him sliding
back 20 first a few times | would have
his knee In trouble. Rather iuhuman,
perhaps, but airs fair In baseball inside
OF the rules / threw over 70 FIRST five
times, and Hamilton slid back every
time. After that there was nothing TO
fear from him. FOR his knee could not
stand the pressure, and he stuck closer

First Of all, Flt2simmons has all
along stuck 10 his statement that when
he met Jeflres at Coney Island he
was drugged and that It was due TO the
chemicals administered 10 him that he
lost the championship. Men who pooh
poohod the story when Fitzsimmons
gave II out came TO the conclusion eff
or they witnessed the wonderful ability
shown by Fitz last summer against
Sharkey and Rubin, that there might
be more in the statement than they
were willing to credit at first.
During the whole of that encounter
the Cornishman did not act like him
self, nor did he display an iota Of the
cunning and ring ccneralship for which
he Is noted As q matter Of fact, right
after the fight many of the spectators
said he acted as n he had been 'doped.'
Last summer FItzslmmons proved
conclusIyely that he was not TO be
reckoned among the "hag beens," in
spite of his advancing years and bald
pate.
Although Rubin succumbed TO "Ru-
by Robert after a showing that was
disappointing TO the admirers Of the
Ohloan, yet there are several facts
which may account for this. During
his contest with Fitz Rubin showed
but little OF the aggressiyeness and sell
ence Of which he had q short time be-
fore proved himself TO be master in his
bout with Tom Sharkey. In fact, many
witnesses Of the Fit2-Ruhlin fight were
Of the opinion that the latter was bad

This might easily have been the case.
