SCORE A TRIPLE STEAL.
Padden, Burkett and Sugden Purloin
Bases at Same Time in St. Louis.

Three veteran ball players turned a
trick in the ST. Louis Washington
worked many times in the history of
the game. This was triple steal, en-
gineered by Dick Padden, captain of
the Browns, Jesse Burkett and Joe
stealing home he secured the run that
tied up the game, saving the Browns
from defeat by the Senators. The con-
test stretched eve ever eleven innings and
and Dwyer on account of darkness.
For daring base running McAleer has
some of the best and brainieSt ball
players in the country on his team.
High chief among these is that old
timer, Dick Padden. The tricks he can
turn in a ball game to the advantage
of the team he is playing with are in
Vulnerable. He is a source of constant
nine. and especially the pitcher and
catcher. Not only in base running is
this willy old leader a terror to oppos-
ing teams, for he can turn just few
more tricks in fielding than almost any
other man in the game today.
Padden's brightest effort was proba--
bly, yesterdays achievement in which
three men stole bases at the same
time, he himself stealing home, Sug-
den third and Burkett second. Practi-
cally the only way such a feat could
be engineered was for Padden to slide
to the plate when the pitcher delivered
the ball to the catcher, the other base
runners stealing while the backstop
was muddled up at the plate with the
Browns captain.
When on base Padden is a bad man
for the opposing club. Although not a
fast runner, his judgment and wisdom
in knowing just when to start, calling
the turn on what the pitcher or catch
er are going to do, and his ability to
slide into the bag and squirm away
from the baseman covering it, all stand
him in good stead and keep the oppo-
sition on the anxious seat. =.
One of Padden'S greatest plays and
one that might be developed to a
greater degree than is generally seen in
games of today, is stealing third base.
In the art of purloining that bag he is
postmaster. AS soon as he reaches
second he leads far off the base in an
effort to draw the throw Of the catcher
in an effort to nip him when he tries
to slide back Such q throw is just
what he is looking and prepared for
and as soon as the catcher cuts loose
away he goes for third. With the lead

hand, the backstop whips the ball to
third to get him sliding in there the
wise old ball player slips back to sec
ond instead and the. throw has been
useless except in so far as it prevented
his getting a notch nearer the home
plate than he would otherwise.
How to stop this play is a question
often discussed by ball players and
managers alike Strong throwing back

BrushS statement. referring to the
Americans as minor league club, and
his refusal to let his boys play worlds
championship series, it is said, Influenced
Mr.. Brush to change his attitude.
He had hoped that his statement
would serve to settle for once and all
the controversy concerning the series
between the Giants and Highlanders, but
instead his statement served as a
boomerang. 80 :, ~
The boys feel that public sentiment
has been aroused to such an extent that
unless Mr.. Brush relents and allows
them to play a championship series
with the Bostons, should they win the
American, League race, their benefits
will suffer considerably.
One of the New York National
League players said last night:
when McGraw asked us if we would
stick to him in his refusal to play the
Highlanders we agreed to do so. We
feel that we owe it McGraw to stand
by him, and we will, but it's pretty
tough on the players to be considered
cutters by the public OF course, there
is no chance of us playing the High
landers, but do think there is a good
chance of us playing the Bostons If

Chanute Man Smoked Out a Swarm of
- - Bees to His Profit

After J. n. Purdy succeeded in dis
lodging the swarm of bees from his res
zdence at 120 North Highland avenue,
he took from the walls of the building
400 pounds of honey which his indus
tTious tenants had stored away for the
winter. Mr.. Purdy had been trying
Tor some time to get some one to come
and remove the bees. The account of
his dilemma which was published in
the Tribune recently brought him many
offers of assistance and early this week
an experienced bee man smoked the bees
out. The honey was deposited between
the ceiling and the floor. There was
enough there to last me for a year."
said Mr.. Purdy. The bees had been
there year. They did not modest the
family until this summer when they
discovered a hole over window into
the front room and formed the habit
of buzzing around the heads of the oc-
cupants. Not all of the bees have left
yet, those that were not killed by the
smoke putting in their time eating the
honey that was left--Chanute Tribune.
