AN INCORRECT TACKLE-Too HIGH.
 [The tackler should grasp the carrier of
 the ball. above the ankles and below
 the waist, preferably around the knees.l til he has the ball. The quarter must hurry his backs, at all times keeping the ball in front of them. never making them wait for 1t, but rather work to get it. This is especially true on what is known as straight buck or quick opening-that is. when either half takes the ball through the line between guard and tackle on his own side of the cen ter. In this case the quarter should toss the ball as soon as his hands have closed on it directly to the half who has started for the opening without letting his hands come in as far as his body.
 For plays between guard and center or when llnemen are running with the bah the ball should be placed in the pit of the stoT1ach and handed. not passed.

CONNIE MACK's CANE.

 Years Ago. 4 a-
 South Manchester, Oct 11.-It may be that woman cannot keep a secret, but there is one living in Manchester ,who has kept secret for twenty-five years and probably the only reason she has told of it now is owing to the in- terest being taken in the worlds cham pionship series now being played be- tween New York and Philadelphia base ball hines.
 The older residents of Hartford will recall a mystery of twenty-five years ago when Connie Mack, who was then catcher on the Hartford team, was given a cane, with his name engraved on it, and a note which read: Pre- sented to Plucky, Reliable, Energetic Connie Mack by an Unknown Admir- er"
 The cane was bought in Hartford at Steele's jewelry store which was then located on Main street, given to small girl with the direction that it be belivered to "Mr Connie Mack" There was much comment concerning the gift and although several attempts were made to learn who made the present they were all unsuccessful, while the woman. then small girl, read with delight the accounts of the search.
 In speaking of the gift last night the woman said that she was in Hart ford on business and as the trains to Manchester were not frequent in those days she was in want of some way to pass the time. Knowing thes there was a ball game she attended and was impressed by the work of the battery composed of Gilmore and Mack Mack's work impressed her. he being so sincere in his efforts to win. and, while not being a grand stand player, was in the game every minute. On many other occasions she went to Hart ford and saw him play and when. to- wards the end of the season, when the Hartford team played in Manches- ter. she was one of the few who eheered for the visitors. It was while attending the game at Mount Nebo grounds in this place that she decided to make him a present. Although it is several years since she saw a game of base ball she has not lost all interest and, when the present series began. she felt she had kept her secret long enough. The gift of the cane may have long since passed out Of the memory of Connie Mack. but 1t is still bright in her memory and she recalls to a word the contents of the note which accompanied 1t.
