! BASE BALL GOSSIP !
! |. FOR THE FANS !,


The Chicagos, under Arson. had
some great pitchers, too, after
Spalding retired. Among them were
larry Corcoran, Goldsmith, jim
Mccormick and John Clarkson. Cor
coran was built on Clark Grihtfs
lines, and looked very much like tile
New York Americans popular man
ager. He was a.cool. deliberate sort
Of fellow, with all the qualities 81
Ia good boxman. Goldsmith was
more rugged, and was therefore able
to stand more hard work. So was
Jim Mccormick, who lives over in
Paterson now and stll loves to talk
of the triumphs Of the dim past.
Clarkson was a star in 1885, when
the Chicago club sold him to Boston
for $4,000. He had better control
of the ball than any man in the pro-
fession at that time, with the pos
sible exception Of Tim Keefe, and it
was only on rare occasions that he

struggle for the pennant in 1882
when Keefc and Glarkson were the
pitching stars Of the profession, will
always be memorable incidents in
baseball history
Thomas Bond, another star box
man in the old days, was with the
Atlantics, Hartfords and Bostons
from 1873 to 1888. nearly every year
pitching 30 per cent. of the games
for his team. Bond relied solely up
on speed and, control, coupled with,
Iheadwork, which helped him out Of.
many a tight place. But he had no

he retired from the game. Bonds

who went behind the hs.t 9s,~ after

i have read with interest and sat

a few days ago in presenting a letter
Of Mr.. Built, of the Red Rock Coal
Company, Of Upshur county, this
state. You said, THAT such things
could be in this state was disgrace
TO the state Senator Elkins said
that we had law in this state pro-
viding remedy for outrageous
treatment Of shippers by railroads.
You are nearer right than Senator
Flkins. We have some law in this
state bearing on the subject, but it is
inadequate and we have no means
of enforcing it. | have been trying
since 1881 to get railroad commits
