the fall of that year his release was
purchased by the Washington Club. OF
the National League. Washington
held him until August, when he was
sold to the Kansas City Club. of the
American League, and finished the
season with the latter's team, partici-
pating in only sixteen championship
games, but he batted safely in all
except one, and had a batting per-
centage of 1928. He continued with the
Kansas Citys throughout the campaign
of 1900 and that year took part in
one hundred and thirty championship
games, and did creditable work both
at bat and in the field. Once he made
four safe hits, including a triple bag
ger, and seven times three safe hits TO
the game. He also did good work in
base stealing. having twenty-nine TO
his credit. When the Kansas City
Club was transferred to Washington,
at the beginning of this year, and
changed its name to Washington,
Coughlin was one of the players Man
ager Manning decided to retain, and
thus far in the campaign his batting
and fielding are of the highest order.
During the latter part of May and
early in June he went stretch of
twenty-one games. and missed only
once to make at least one safe hit to a
game, twice he made three hits and
six times two.

A KANSAS CITY PLAYER.

William F. Coughlin, the clever
third baseman of the Washington
team, of the American League, was
born Aug. II, 1876, at Scranton, Pa,
and learned to play ball around his
native place. His professional career
began with the Pawtucket Club, of
the New England League, in 1896, and
that year he participated in ninety-six
championship games, and toward the
close of the season batted in Glass A
form. Once he made five safe hits. in

GRIFFITH RELIEVES IN WATERS"

GRIFFITH BELIEVES IN WATERS"
With a club composed entirely Of
men known in baseball as good wait
ers Manager Clarke Griffith of the Chi
cago White Stockings, sees a stronger
combination than that of a team
strong in stick work alone. Such a
club, he says, would be capable of
outplaying the sluggers in work about
the bases and being evenly matched in
fielding would take the pennant hands
down.
81 can't get it into the heads of
some of the players on this team that
they can get on base just as easily by
letting the pitcher throw a few over
without their striking at them, and
that there is a great deal less danger
of being fielded out.
Give me a team OF good walters,
not the kind that work in a hotel or
restaurant, but who know the differ
ence between a ball that is over the
plate and one that isn't, and I'll win
the pennant in this league or any other
without half trying.
Such an assertion may sound a
tri1e queer, but it is a fact, neverthe-
less. Why? Because there aren't more
than half a dozen pitchers in the bust
ness that can get the ball over the
plate, as prescribed in the rules, when
he knows the batter won't take a
chance on anything but good ones.
Then let a good ball come. It's little
or no trouble to foul it off, or. If it's
the last strike, take the chance, Of
course, of hitting it out or bunting, as
the case may be.
LEARN to Wait"
II wouldn't care if my men didn't
get a hit once a week if they'd only
learn to wait. There's the secret OF
most mems good ball playing and bat
ting. Lajoie is the exception that
proves this rule. Keller and Jones are
the shining lights of this rule. Men
who hit at .275 or .2S0 are doing well
enough, if they are getting to first on
four balls.
Il never realized as much as l do
this year the Importance of trying for
a base on balls. And | never knew, as
| do now, that so few pitchers have
control enough of the ball to get it
over when they want to. Most of them
shut their eyes and let it go. depending
on luck to turn the trick. This season
l have watched the game closer than
ever did before. have tried this wait
ing scheme and find it works. That is
the reason 1 am hitting above 300, a
mark l never had before.
"Of course there must be a little
stick work back of this waiting. Then,
too, a great deal depends On base run
ming. With waiting, base running and
just a little hitting the pennant would
be easy for such a team"

copied all of ten chances at third base
and once nine. He was re-engaged by
Pawtucket for the season OF 1897, and
that year he took part in one hundred
and seven championship games, and
again distinguished himself as a bats
man and a fielder. Once he made six
safe hits to game. three times four
and six times three. Five times he ac-
cepted nine chances to the game at
third base, seven times eight and FIVE
times seven. He continued with the
Pawtuckets until July 4, inclusive,
1898. when the New England League
disbanded, and then he next signed
with the Wilkesbarre Club, of the
Eastern League, finishing the season
with the latter.

Deafness Cannot be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deafness
and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an infamed con-
dition of the mucous lining of the
Eustachian Tube. When this tube
gets infamed you have a rumbling
sound or imperfect hearing, and when
it is entirely closed deafness is the re-
suit, and unless the inflammation can
be taken out and this tube restored to
its normal condition, hearing will be
destroyed forever; nine cases out of
ten are caused by catarrh, which is
nothing but an infamed condition of
the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars
for any case of Deafness (caused by
catarrh) that cannot be cured by Halls
