Oh an ingenious theatrical agent material

salary of $1,000 for ten weeks Mathew
son and the theatrical man have been in
conference all morning. but rs yet have
not arrived at conclusion. ...-
The proposition was made to Mathew
son yesterday. and he took it under adj
V1sement, but the big pitcher Is still nm
decided. The turn which Matty IS To do
Is of little consequence. as the princjpal
thing required Of him is to show himself
during the performance and work in n
demonstration OF how he throws the yari-
Gus curves.
Several plans have been suggested, but
1t Is likely that Il base ball skit will be
put on in which Mathewson is TO appcar
and throw few balls to q catcher
whether he Is to appear in evening dress
or a base ball uniform Is undecided. but
the latter is preferable to the theatrical
people.
The management Of the New York club
has offered no objection to Mathewson ac-
cepting the proposition, and it Is entirely
up to him to decide.
