BURGLARS TURN TWO
PROFITABLE TRICKS

Burglars turned two tricks Saturday
night in the business section of the
city.
The first place burglarized was the
furnished room house of Miss Margaret
Watson, ll7h Howard street. Miss
Watson's room door was burst open.
The thieves took $lS in money and II
number of pieces of jewelry.
This was one of the boldest crimes
committed this winter, because it was
pulled off within half a block of the
center of the city. During the entire
night crowds of people pass back and
forth at this point. and other dodgers
were coming and going constantly.
The entire room was ransacked in the
search for yaluables. Miss Watson
is of the belief that the burglary Was
committed during two hours that she

What McGraW Thinks
Of Pitcher Joe
M'CInnity

That Johnny McGraw, manager of
the Giants, regards Joe McGinnitv as
one of the best twirlers that ever
stepped into pitchers box is no bet
Ter proven than by statement which
he makes of McGinnity's prowess
In speaking of McGinnity recently
McGraw said:
III McGinnity had carried out his
threat to desert the National league
and cast his fortunes with one of the
California teams the headiest pitcher
in the business would have gone TO
the slope.
Few who have watched the Iron
Man work are able to see all he does
to win games in addition to the mere
throwing of curves and shoots. With
out doubt he puts up more trick PLAYS
with the aid of the infield than any
pitcher l have ever SEEN" continued
McGraw
Base runners take fewer privileges
when McGinnity is on the slab than
they do at any other time He has it
so arranged that it is not necessary
Tor him to watch the bases. getting
his signals from Lauder, Mccain or
whoever is catching, as the case
may be.
Speaking of signals reminds me
of some funny experiences, but one
that happened in Philadelphia was
the most laughable. 1t was when both

of the champion Baltimore team. The
Phillies Were about the easiest club
