HUGH DUFFY TELLS
HOW TO BAT HARD
Manager Gives Some Advice to
Those With Struggling
Aspirations

PHILADELPHIA. Pa, Oct 90
Hughey Duffy, manager of the Philiies,
has been delivering a set of lectures on
the fine points of the national game. He
gave some good advice in regard to bat
ting, and in part said:
Il would not confine the batter to any
one narrow style of position Almost
every leading batter has his popularity.
The most essential thing about batting
is naturalneSS Try to be natural at all
keeping your feet apart, do so. and if
you can do better by keeping them to-
gether, do so.
Confidence is needed in hitting. No
one ever hit the ball who walked to the
bat thinking that he was going to@strike
out. Go to the bat not overconfident of
being. able to connect safely, but take
your bat and consider that your chances
of hitting safely are as good if not bet
ter, than are the pitchers of being able
to retire you.
your pitcher viii size you up. and you
do the same to him. Try to discover if
you can what kind of a ball he is going to
pitch
stand back of the plate, so as to be
able to step toward the ball as it crosses
the rubber. Standing on the same line
with the plate makes it impossible for you
to step toward the ball as it crosses.
Throw your weight into the bat. Don't
swing wildly. Meet the ball half way.
Don't hit when the force Of the bat Is
spent Try to nat sqg gu as it crosses
the pitcher. If you hit continually to left
field you are swinging just too soon. 1t
you hit to right field constantly you are
swinging Just too late If you can sue
coed in hitting through the pitchers box,
on the ground or above the head, in my
opinion you have acquired the hardest
part of the. batting.
Swinging too soon, which sends the
ball to left field, is bad. as the bail is
apt to rise too much and the left fielder,
third baseman and shortstop are playing
for the hit at all times.
Swinging too late. which sends the ball
to right field, works almost the same, as
push not being fast enough.
My advice is not to swing or not to
push too much. Make it half and half.
Swing enough to get force and push
enough to get your weight on the bat.
TRY to keep the ball on the ground.
Outflelders are getting faster each year,
and apparently safe flies are often caught.
Never step away from the ball. You lose
any force you put into your swing by
stepping back. and If an out curve is
thrown you are too far back to hit it,
and If you do connect it will be with the
tip end OF the bat, and generally this
proves an easy out for the first baseman
basenan.
TRY to be natural, but don't step back.
Always step into the bali and meet it as
it comes.
stepping back is only another word for
cowardice. and the pitcher soon knows it
and will either send you wicked inshoot,
which will brighten you more, or send up
a wide out curve that can't be reached.
Stepping back also prevents you from
getting a fast start to first The ball is
often ahead of you to first by an inch or
two"

SPEARS GIVES FANCY
BILLIARD EXHIBITION
Expert Makes All Kinds of Shots With
Cue and Fingers

George E. Spears gave a billiard and
pool playing exhibition last night in Con-
RAIDS hall before a large gallery which
again and again applauded the difficult
and fantastic shots. In addition Spears
played a match game, 100 or no count and
won At the conclusion Of the match
ting away with some weird looking shots
to the great enjoyment of the experts
who crowded around him. Apparently
there is little that a billiard or pool ball
finished with the billiards he went to a
pool table and opened the eyes of many
who secretly confessed to being sharks. .
He has complete mastery Of the cue and
in addition can discard the cue and do
some astonishing work, using his fingers
instead.

finesse to get the respective football man

IS done there will be plenty of time to

it looks like a good idea on which a
preliminary survey is being made with
the chances greatly in favor of its being
abandoned.

In Memoriam.

In loving remembrance of Mrs.
Eliza West Hammett, who departed
this life, one year ago, July 29th,> 1903,
sat the residence Of her daughter, Mrs.
Venetia Aud, in Sumter, SC.
The deceased was a daughter of
Joseph West, .Esqr., and was born on
the 9th of April, 1923, so that at the
time Of her death, she was in her Slst
year.
In 1874 she was united in marriage
with Nr. William Hammett Who laid
down his life in the battle of Seven
Pines, May 31st, 1862, a gallant Con-
federate soldier fighting for his coun-
try. By this affective dispensation,
she was left a needy widow, with
eight helpless children, for whose
maintenance and education she toiled
day and night, although frail in body
and Of feeble health. Two of them
preceded her to the grave; the re-
naming four sons and two daughters
survive her.
In 1853 she pTofessed faith in Jesus
Christ. was baptized and received in
to the Presbyterian church, in which
she continued q communicate until
her death, about half century.
Amid the many trials of life, the
failure Of health, and the approach of
death, she still declared that her
reliance was in Jesus Christ, her Saw
iour, and His sweet words are, Him
that cometh unto me- I will in no
wise cast ont. -
Her children rise up, and call
her blessed
