WORK is NOT GOOD
FOR BALL PLAYERS
SHOULD NOT TAKE EXERCISE
DURING WINTER
Doc Payne, Trainer of the Cleveland
Club, Is Out with Statement
Which Should Prevent Team Men,
bers from Taking Violent Exercise

Doc Payne of Cleveland, who made
kid" Mccoy famous by losing to the
man who is now one of the biggest
diamond merchants in America, and
the man who has fought and wrestled
on many occasions, is out with long
statement based upon professional
knowledge.
He says that ball players should not
indulge in any strenuous work in the
winter season. Their hard and exact
ing work on the diamond in the sum-
mer season, coupled with the fact that
they are hammered by the broiling
suns rays, compels Payne to the belief
that the players should rest during the
winter months. Payne, it will be re-
mernbered, for the past three years has
been the trainer and manager of the
Cleveland baseball team.
Having learned something of tho
human anatomy in fifteen years of the
constant training of the various types
of athletes, prize fighters, wrestlers
and ball players" says Doc, Il an
tempted to raise my voice to protest
when l hear of such-and-such bal
player keeping in training through
the winter by bowling and other forms
of specialized activity, with the inten'
tion of keeping in shape certain mus
cles which he is in the habit of using
and depending on during his active sea-
son on the diamond.
"The ball player who does this is do
ing himself more harm than good. A
ball player in the winter time should
do only enough exercising to keep him
self ia health, and, above all things. HI
should not keep any one set of muscles
on edge through the off season.
"These muscles should be given {
rest. He should take only exercise o
general nature, and let himself grow
fat If he Keeps in training all winter
he is certain to be stale in the spring
when he should be ready to begin, no
to leave off, training.
Because ball player appears to b
fat naturally, he need not worry owe
it. Because he is stout is by no mean
an indication that he is out of condi
ton. Take Socks Seybold, for instance
or Cy Young, they are always in per
feet trim, yet they look to be anything
but athletes because of their bulk"

SOLVES MYSTERY OF
MILK DISAPPEARANCE CE
HOUSEHOLDER CATCHES EARLY
THIEF
Driver for Competing Dairy Discov-
cred steaIthily Taking Bottles
from Back Porch, and Customer
Makes Complaint to The Police

The puzzling and regular theft of
bottles of milk from houses in the
northwestern part of the city, has ap-
parently been explained by the dis
covery made few days ago by John
d. Reavis, 2501 Budlong avenue.
While sleeping out of doors, which
Mr. Reavis and his family have lately
been in the habit of doing for their
health, Mrs. Reavis was awakened
early in the morning by someone walk
ing on the back porch. Looking up
she discovered the driver of a milk
wagon belonging to a dairy which she
did not patronize running off with the
bottle of milk placed on her porch.
She screamed for the thief to stop
and Mr.. Reavis ran after the man,
catching him after a long chase. Mr..
Reavis complained to the daily en-
ploying the man about what he had
discovered, and asked them to return
the amount of money he had lost by
stolen milk or supply him with the
quantity of milk purloined. The dairy
refused to do either, says Mr.. Reavis,
and he made complaint to the police
yesterday.
1t is believed that the men employed
by the same dairy as that for which
the driver caught taking Mr.. Reavis'
milk was employed, are responsible for
all of the milk thefts occurring in that
neighborhood during the past few
months. The milk stolen is said to
aggregate a value of over SAC.
1t is not known whether or not the
proprietors Of the dairy are responsible
for the larceny by their men, but if
they know of it, it is thought that their
motive in robbing the milk supplied by
rival dairies is to injure their COM
petitors by creating the appearance of
negligent delivery on their part.

COUNCIL WANTS
BRIDGE RUSHED

Tn ClTYS CENTER
Engineers office Is Requested to
Hasten Work on Plans In
Response to Property
Owners cIamor

The city council has voted to ask the
city engineers office to hasten work or
the new bridge on East Seventh street
1t is planned to have the bridge con-
structed of reinforced concrete, the inn
provement to cost about $4,000.
The statement is made at the city
hall that a great part of the money
required has been provided for, and that
as soon as the engineers report an ordi-
nance will be passed by the city coun-
Gil authorizing the work.
Bids will be received and the contract
awarded in time for the work on the
bridge to begin during January or
February
Councilman Kern, who had yester-
days resolution passed, says that the
new bridge will mean much for the
residents of Euclid Heights and the
central and southern portions of the
Ninth ward east of the river.
Syndicate Ready
The syndicate represented by Mr..
Walsh of the Wilcox building has Sc
cured the franchise for the extension
of the street railway system from the
intersection of Broadway and Seventh
street, east on Seventh, across the new
bridge to the bluffs east of the river
lenbeck, and thence east on Hollenbeck
avenue to point beyond the city linn
it's, the new line to afford transporta-
tion facilities from the east side direct
to the central business district of the
city.
In addition to the extension on Hol-
lenbeck avenue it is planned to have
the new line connect with the double
track now in operation on Stephenson
avenue, the junction to be made at the
intersection of Boyle avenue, Cummings
street and Stephenson avenue.
The Walsh syndicate, which has un-
limited capital, has already made pur-
chases of ties and other material for the
construction of the Seventh street rail-
way extension, and will have the rails
in place before the bridge is completed.
The city engineer has reported to the
board of public works that repairs are
necessary on the First street bridge,
which he has estimated will cost $567
The Los Angeles Railway company has
agreed to pay not to exceed $240 of this
amount, and the board recommended
to the council the adoption of a resolu
tion Of authorization for this work, and
it will collect the amount which the
Los Angeles Railway company agrees
to pay for this expense and deposit the
same in the city treasury. The council

STORk OVERLOOK TRAIN.
Passengers Welcome Little Stranger
and Chrlsten Him.

On the train which left Jasper at 4.27
yesterday afternoon for Birmingham the
passengers were greatly surprised at an
incident which occurred
Among the passengers In the day coach
was Mrs. Allison who quite unexpected
ly received a visit from stork which
presented her with a ten-pound, bouncing
boy. DIR, Monasco of Townley who was
a passenger on the train, attended to
welcome the little strangers arrival, who
was afterwards formally introduced to
all aboard.
Acting on the suggestion of one of the
passengers, 1t was decided to christen the
boy, so he WAS named Frisco" in COM
pllment TO the railroad, York in COM
pliment to the conductor of the train, and
Allison by right and virtue of paren-
tages.
Some generous drummers proposed that
a collection be taken up for the boy to
give him a start in the world; the sum
of $l4 was soon made up which was pre-
scented to the happy mother.
On reaching Blossburg Mrs. Allison
alighted and was met by her husband.
whose surprise was only equaled by his
delight at hearing the news.

amount in Cuban waters, SO he had
recommended TO the President who had
approved the suggestion that all OF the
warships now there be Withdrawn, with
the exception of two or three OF the small
gunboats, which might be needed TO
keep up communication with the various
seaports where marines were stationed.
The necessary orders to this effect
would go at once. Secretary Taft said
It would now be impossible for him to
make the projected trip to Panama,
which he had planned IN company with
the President.
On Brand New Cruisers.
The President, however would go, as
originally planned, and it is understood
the voyage will be made with the two
brand-new armored cruisers, Tennessee
and Washington.
AS to the administration of the canal
zone, left IN anomalous situation
through the withdrawal of Governor Ma
COON, Secretary Taft said the expediency
Of making Mr.. Stevens governor, as well
as chief engineer, had been canvassed,
and there was much to be said in favor
of this plan, which would be in the line
OF centralizing responsibility in one ca
pable person. The animating purpose was
to diminish the Importance of the office
of governor, while charging those OF the
American minister to Panama.
The secretary said he intended taking
up with the President very soon the
question of appointing Philippine min
lister and vice governor, which place was
to have been filled by Governor Magoon
before assignment to duty in Cuba.

London Bridge.

From the Westminster Gazette.
1t Is believed that In early Roman times
there was bridge of boats over the
Thames This gave place to strong,
narrow structure built by tho Roman oc-
cupiers on wooden piles. The remains of
this Roman bridge were discovered when
the present bridge was built The Roman
bridge was burned in 1876, but was re-
paired In 1867 the Norman London
bridge was begun by Peter. rector Of
colechurch. In the reign OF King Henry
ii. 1t was not completed until 1903. a
period of forty-two years. In 1882 there
was terrible fire on the bridge. both
ends burning furiously, while 5000 persons
were caught between the two fires and
either burned to death or drowned. In
the fifteenth century there were houses on
both sides of the bridge, Just As there
are on tho Ponte Vecchio In Florence at
the present time. In Tudor times the
heads OF political offenders were stuck
over the gates OF the bridge. One traveller
has recorded the fact that he witnessed
no fewer than 800 of these terrible troph-
les impaled at various parts of London
bridge
In the days of James / the bridge had
become the haunt of jewelers. and other
small merchants, as we see them on the
Old bridge over the Arno today. They
succeeded the astrologers and fortune
tellers who had settled there In Tudor
days. The bridge suffered heavily in the
great fire of London. In the eighteenth
century all the old houses which stood
upon II were removed for reasons Of
safety Finally. the cost Of the con-
tinuous repairs became so heavy that tho
bridge we now see was built. Its recent
widening Is too familiar to every one to
need mention For hundreds of years the
traffic on the bridge has been so great
that an old saw has IL that no one can
cross II without seeing a white horse.
The advent of the motor may soon add
this old saying TO the rest of the vanished
historical associations of London bridge.
