 tie IhrosC. .
By FRANK CHANCE.

Czptain-manager and first baseman of the
 Chicago Nationals.
 First base is a position that is re quiring more brain work right along, and 1t has increased manifold in diti- culty in the last ten years.
 More qualifications are required of first baseman today than formerly, and head work is considered among the first. Besides this, first basemau must bat hard and run the bases we'll
 He must understand how to advance a man on base and play team work both with his bat and in the field; hence the position is h vt the easy one some persons who have never given the matter any study imagine.
 The main fault with young players is that they do not give attention enough to beadwork
 If they have good height and reach and can play a good mechanical game that is all they think is required of the position. This is all wrong. Head work and snap on the part of the first pdseLlau puts ille lnlo ledII, anu tue finished points which come only with study and practice are the ones which tell in the long run. Avoid being only mechanical play CT, and try to make yourself an active. hustling member of the team.
 The first baseman is on one of the danger points of the diamond.
 Throws if unstopped at that point are more likely to do serious damage than those to any other place on the team. On throws from shortstop, third baseman and pitcher there is no chance to back him up. and if the ball gets past the first baseman the runner is sure of third If not of home.
 On throws by the second baseman good catcher will prevent the runner

KAUFMAN AND TOMMY BURNS

What Is Doing Among the Man

Matchmaker McCarey of the Pacific A. C. of Los Angeles has offered Burns a match with big Kaufman, the Cali fornia blacksmith, 10 be decided the last week in August and Burns has already accepted it. McCarey has wired to Kaufman, who is in Philadelphia, about the match.
 There is no question of Kaufman's s class. He is a wonderful fighter. as was proved in his fight with Phila- dellhia Jack O'Brien Though a novice comparatively at that time, he gave a grand exhibition of courage, and stayed seventeen rounds. Bradley is a first class man. too, and if the match is made, a good bout is assured. UNDER A PULL"
 Harry Foley intimates that Jack o'Brien was under pull" when fight ing Sam Berger, but he can't get over the fact that Sam forced the fighting and cut and bruised Jack as he was never marked before.
 Jimmy Dunn and Kid" Tyler are matched to meet in a fifteen-round right about the middle of August be- fore the Erie Athletic Club of Erie, Pa. They will fight at 12S pounds.
 Tommy Burns has arrived at Los Cal, where he intends to re- main until he gets on a fight. Burns claims that Philadelphia Jack O'Brien flunked out of a match with him after agreeing to box him. The Seattle (Wash.) A. c. had offered a purse of sS000 for them to battle for, which he accepted. O'Brien told Buns he expected per cent. bonus for signing the articles, but as the latter would not give it 10 him O'Brien threw up the bout.

HERRERA FOR HIM

Paddy Minihan. a Boston manager would like to have crack at Aurelio Herrera and says that Jimmy Gardner will make any weight at all for the "Greaser." Gardner is training every day and says if necessary that he will make 133 pounds at o'clock, for Jim my figures that he can beat Herrera, although he realizes he is tough one. Jimmy says that he will let Melody weigh 142 pounds at 3 o'clock and Walcott any old weight.
 If Herrera doesn't want to make weight Gardner will let him fight at catchweights. Gardiner was much dis appointed when Willie Lewis fell Gown on him and was also sore when the match with Peter Sullivan, for last night, was canceled. But he feels that against Herrera he would draw a big house

 A first baseman is in a position to save more errors for his team mates than any other man on the team. Nev- CT shirk a bad throw even though it will not count as an error against you. That is the worst thing you can do, as 1t will cause your fielders to lose con fdence in you
 Even If impossible to make an out, try hard to stop the ball and save the extra bases that will be gained if you fail to do so.
 A conscientious player who is out for the good of his team even at the sacri- flee of himself is the one who will sue ceed.
 Study your fellow players carefully so as to know their peculiarities and be in a position to protect their weak points
 Have good understanding especial ly with the catcher and pitcher.
 An understanding with the other in- helders Is of but little less importance, as the first baseman must work with them more than any. other player on the team.
 In conclusion, play clean, hard ball. Never give up, and play the harSest you know how even If your team ap- pears hopelessly beaten.
 There frequently comes a change In luck when a game appears to have been lost which ultimately leads to vic tory. and you cannot foresee when 1t Is coEing.
 THEREFORE KEEP TRYING.

 "Your medicine is certainly fine. I have Induced several friends and neighbors to take it and know more than a dozen who had female troubles and who to-day are as well and strong ss am from using your Vege table Compound"
