GUM SHOE john
FOOLS JIM HART
Magnate Brush Watches Chi
cago Games From the
Bleachers.

CHICAGO, June 10.-John T.
Brush, baseball magnate. owner of the
New York team and famous all over
the country because he has been
spoken of generally as "the original
gum shoe" magnate. has sprung a new
sensation. Hereafter he will doubt
less be known as "the shy Mr.. Brush"
for he was in Chicago for four DAYS
and watched every game the New
York team played at the West side
grounds and nobody learned that he
was here until the series was finished
1t seems strange that Mr.. Brush
should have been in the city such a
long time without being recognized
but the fact is that he has not been
spectator of the ball games as other
magnates are spectators when in Chi
cago. All of the rest Of them go to
James A. Hart, president of the local
National league club, and say: ''Howdy,
Mr.. Hart. Thought I would come
around to see your team play ball."
But Mr.. Brush did not like the way
the other magnates do, evidently, for
he said nothing at ali to Mr.. Hart. He
did not even go anywhere near the To-
cal owner. and i is said on excellent
authority that he SHE'D at his own
shadow.
How could he be at the West side
baseball park and not be seen by Mr.,
Hart? Why, he sat in the bleachers-
out where the 25-cent boys chew gum.
eat popcorn, drip pop and "cuss'' mild
~ Or otherwise. as it suits their tastes.
whether he did as the other bleacher-
ties did Or not is not kbwn. Anyway.
he sat in the bleachers, and that is
why nobody saw him.
Nobody knows why Mr.. Brush was
mere He has stated no mission to
Mr.. Hart, because he has not seen the
CHICAGO 4
say why he preferred to sit in the sun
instead Of occupying comfortable
