A Base Running Trick.

Brainy base runners have developed
many little tricks that sometimes aid a
man considerably. In stealing second,
for instance, some players succeed in
reaching the bag safely by jumping
outward as they near it (thus avoiding
the outstretched hand of the baseman
that has caught the catcher's throw
and grasping the mere outfield corner
of the base. Players thus increase the
distance between themselves. and the
baseman and offer but their hands and
forearms targets for the hand con-
tanning the ball.
The old school base runners were
content with sliding along the base line,
depending on their speed to carry them
to the sack ahead of the ball.
In order to make sure of touching one
of the up to date base runners the sec
ond baseman must stand directly over
the bag, thus multiplying his chances
of being knocked over by the runner.

Rules For Throwing the JaveIin.


A javelin throwing contest was part
games held at st. Louis. AS rules
had ever been published governing this
event Chief Sullivan was appealed to-,
and he evidenced his versatility and
thorough knowledge of the intricacies
of sport by writing in three minutes
(actual time) a set of rules that will
govern javelin throwing in future on
both sides of the Atlantic. The rules
are as follows:
The javelin shall be three feet six inches
in length, including the head.
The head shall be spear shaped and
made of steel.
The spear shall measure sixteen inches
with the socket included
All throws shall be made from circle
seven feet in diameter.
The circle shall be a metal or wooden
ring, painted whitewashed. and sunk
almost flush with the ground.
The throw shall be for accuracy.
Sixty feet from the circle shall be the
object post which shall be one foot square,
of very soft wood, and shall be sunk into
the ground. leaving four feet above the
ground.
The contestants spearing the posts shall
score ten points for each time the post is
speared.
Striking the post with any part of the
javelin shall score two points.
In case all the contestants fail to spear
strike the post the contestants spearing
the earth nearest to the post shall win.
All throws to be counted must either
spear the post or ground, and the method
of throwing shall be follows:
A throw shall be made with one hand
only and the contestant may assume any
position in the circle before the throw.
Three trials shall be allowed.

The Milwaukee A. c. Team.

One of the strong American teams
will be that representing the AIilwau-
kee Athletic club. It's members include
Hahn, the fast Splinter who has been
hailed as a second Arthur Duffey:
Schulz. who. like Hahn, was developed
at the University of Michigan; Book
man, Breitkreutz, McEachorn, Miller
and Hail. Schulz is a remarkably
speedy hurdler.
Hahn is in tiptop shape and is ex-
pected to win the handsome trophy Of
fered by Director F. J. V. Skiff for the
winner of the 100 meter run.
Ex-Governor Francis has also offered
a valuable prize to the winner of the
Marathon race, a revival of the famous
old Greek contest of the same name.
Cups for various events have also been
offered by A G. Spalding, H. H. Baxter
and Charles ]. Dieges of New York.

WaddeII and Taylor.

Waddell has been known to strike out
sixteen men in a single game; in other
games he has been touched up for al
most as many safe hits. Taylor. may
never be depended upon to win a game,
as may MeGinnity and Mathewson of
the New York Giants, and yet he may
go in and hold a fast team down to
three or four hits. 1 have seen him
strike out three men in one inning;
then, again, l have seen him hit for six
safeties in a single inning. Cronin's
twisters were slaughtered numerically
by the Giants one day early in the sea-
son in Brooklyn A few days later he
pitched against McGinnity in New
York. and the same Giants could only
win from him by one run. and that in
the tenth inning. On that occasion
Jack Warner saved the day for New
York by a home run in the tenth in
ming. Brooklyn was one run ahead.
Two men were out. Warner had two
strikes on him. One more strike, and
Cronin would have won the game
against the sensational Iron Man" Nc
But instead of striking out
Jack sent a screaming liner into the
right field bleachers and brought in
Devlin ahead of him.

rarily or otherwise, from the pursuit of
his profession, and this licensing
scheme will give the stewards OPP
portunity of exercising discretion in
such cases.
1t was not to be supposed that Lord
Durham would allow his tenure of the
office of senior steward to expire before
he had displayed his zeal for reform in
one direction or another. Followers of
racing look upon the head of the Lamb
ton family as the apostle of turf reform.
and any proposal put forward by him
commands close and sympathetic at
tention. He is acting as sponsor for
the proposal that two-year- oId races
of four furlongs shall be permissible
prior to the Epson summer meeting.
Lord Crewe has come forward with the
suggestion that the proposed innova-
