JUDGE SECURED FOR COURT
THE REGULAR. FALL TERM WILL CON-
VENE NEXT MONDAY WEEK.
Judge D. N. Roberts of the 0conee Cir
cult Will Probably Preside for Judge
Sheffield. Small Dockets.


Although Judge Sheffield's condition
is not yet such as to warrant him to
resume his work on the bench it is
certain that the fall term OF Terrell
superior court, which is to convene
next Monday week, will be held.
Solicitor General LANG, at the re-
quest of Judge Sheffield, has been in
correspondence with a number of
judges In the state with view of Sc
curing some one to preside over the
courts yet to be held in the circuit,
and he informs The News that there
is no doubt that Terrell court will be
held at the regular time.
1t is not definitely known who will
preside here, but it will probably be
Judge David M. Roberts of the Oconee
circuit.
Both the civil and criminal dockets
of the court are light, and unless some
thing comes from the grand jury the
approaching term of court will be
short and uneventful one.

team and the present manager Of the Kan
sas City Western League Club.
Few players can hpast of having entered
the ranks OF the professionals at so early
an age as did Nichols, and fewer still can
claim the distinction OF having earned a
living at the game for sixteen consecutive
years. Especially is this so of pitchers.
Nichols. in his long experience, has played
only one position. The average twirler loses
his speed or acquires a glass arm when
he has been at the game about five years.
Many player who will hold down an put
field position In some obscure minor league
this coming season, and who has lone the
same thing for numerous seasons past, was
formerly among the star slab artists of
the major league. But Nicholas arm is
still good. Thu sixteen years OF steady
pitching have done little to detract from
the speed. the control and the curves of
the man. who, during the ~nineties. was such
IN able factor in winning pennants for the
Boston team.
BEGAN PLAYING
WHEN 16 YEARS OLD.
Charley Nichols began his professional
career when but 16 years old in this city.

ming. In speaking of that game, Nichols
said:. II shall never forget the first time I
pitched professional ball. Nervous? Why,
of course I was. But along toward the third
inning the nervousness began to wear off.
We won. but only by the skin Of our teeth.
The final score was Z to 6. and, as luck
would have 1t, I was responsible for the
winning run. When 1t came my turn to
bat in the ninth inning the score wal to
5 in Omaha's favor. BY some lucky acci-
dent I connected with q good one and lined
and. Of course. they trotted home. making
the score Z to 6 in our favor. I rode back
to the hotel that day in the same carriage
with the captain and manager. and they
could not do enough for me.

In that direction.
Perhaps the most notable feature OF the
locals battinsr = the sS-I-hftthg OF An
derson. Andy is in better trim this year
than he has ever been In before, and while
1t Is not generally expected that he will re-
main a 300 hitter, he will more than likely
be many points above the 800 mark when
the season closes.
Burkett's propitious beginning with the
bat forebodes q very high finish for Jesse.
| As a rule Burkett does not get his eye on
| the ball until the middle of the campaign.
This season, however. he Is clouting the ball
in his old Cleveland form. and Jesse is sure
to give the leagues leader . close hustle to
beat him out Of the honors. Hetdrick Is also
walloping the ball. Emrnetts return to
form with the willow is greatly delighting
the fans. Last year Heidrick had an of
year with the bat, but at present 1t seems
as though he is going to break his hoodoo
and climb into the band wagon.
In the field the Browns are also playing
the game. OF course Padden is missed. His
| absence is not particularly prominent on
account Of any particularly glarins bad
| fielding around the middle cushion.
In fact, Mccormick is doing very accept
able work at second. Barry is missed at
third very sadly. however, and If Brain was
back at his old placetMcCormick could re-
sume operations at the third cushion, the
Browns only weak fielding spot at pres
ent.
The pitchers Of the Browns are all going
good. Sievers. Donahue. Powell and Sud-
hoff a shown good form. Reidy has only
had n trial SO far this season, and his
work was very c~ommendable. Bill. how
ever. is a hot weather pitcher, and cannot
be expected to do his best work until later
in the season. The tribe Of McAleer have
struck their gait. and should maintain 1t
for the rest of the season.

East and West have FLASHED in an inter
section series in both leagues. and from the
results OF the first bout. partisans of either
section can claim honors for their pets.
The Western teams in the National
League have travelled East, and, barring
:. the local team, have made a favorable inn
precision.
In the first three games the Pirates. Ma

worsted in the field. and lost two of the

LITTLE
WORK THE

WORK THE
Tail pitchers are not compelled to work
near as hard as the little fellows" said
Arthur Nichols, formerly catcher of the st.
Louis Cardinals, and who covers first base
when his stomach allows him. FOR the rea-
son that their height gives them q delivery
that is much harder to hit than one that
comes straight at you. Men like Willis.
Ewing, Eddie Murphy. Falkenberg and a
few others who travel in the giant class
have a decided advantage over the ordinary
sized fellows because Of their height. They
start a ball so high that It comes to the
batsman at an unexpected and unusual an
gle. with the result that he cannot Judge It
properly. or IL he does manage to get his
bat on it he usually hits Just sufficiently
over it to knock the ball to an infelder
without being able to control its direction.
1t seems to me that tall pitchers ought to
practice the use OF the underhand ball. SO
that they could use it as we'll as their over
hand delivery. Just imagine a man like
Willis serving a batsman a ball thrown
from as great a height as he can reach. and
then starting the next one from the ground.
II that sort of delivery would not keep a
batsman guessing I'm a goat."-Pittsburg
