When Does Eye Of Man
Catching Ball Leave II?
Interesting Point About Fielding
Work from an Old Player.
eossip Cleaned from Everywhere on All
Features Of the Game.

"There Is a curious thing about base
ball playing and one that suggests
rather singular problem" said man
who has spent some time on the dla-
mond. according to the New Orleans
Times-Democrat, land that is the
question as to just when the eyes OF
the player leave the ball. In but very
few Instances do the eyes Of the play
er remain on the ball until the ball is
cupped by the hands. Mind, you. | am
not saying this to belittle the part ,he
ewes play in the game. Good eyes. accu-
rate eyes, are essential to good play
ing. No man can become a good pitch
er, a good catcher, a good neider or
a good man at any other part III 'iie
great American game unless ne has
good eyes.
II have an idea, based to some extent
on experience and partly on oDserFa-
ton, that the man who does Heid WORK
stands more in need OF accurate eyes
than almost any other man III Tue
game At any rate, he needs an accu-
rate eye The catcher needs quick
eve. The pitcher by general survey
can meet all the usual requirements OIL
the game The accuracy and deception
displaved in throwing the ball are the
main things with him. But the man
who is doing field work frequently has
the most delicate kind of discriminate
ing to do when the ball is batted out to
him.
This brings me to the point ] had
in mind. The man who catches n ball,
no matter what his position as player.
never sees tine ball at the exact time
when il passes into his hands. He can
no more sec the ball than he can see
the air around it. From my own expert
ence l would say, in the case of fly,
that the ball is not seen by the fielder
after It gets within Is feet of the
ground. Then how does he manage to
catch It? How is it that his hands find
the ball? That is exactly what I want
to know The hands manage to find the
ball IN some way 1t Is a natural sort
of thing. The fact Is that If the player
should happen to try to keep his eyes
on the ball until it slipped into his
hands. H. would muff it nine times out
of 10. | have tried the experiment in
practicimg and found that the under
taking was SO unnatural and hence so
awkward that i simply could not find
the ball and would muff. The hands
seem to resent this interference on the
part of the eyes. If you don't believe
what / say. make n little experiment
Of your own by pitching something up
and catching IL Try to keep your eyes
on the object until it passes into your
hands and 50, how much trouble you
have. 1t Is 4 rather singular fact, but
1t is fact nevertheless"

SPECIAL DISPATCH TO THE CALL
VALLEJO. Sept. A barge loaded
with 500 tons of -four belonging to
George McNear of San Francisco sud
denly collapsed at one of the wharves
here this afternoon and scattered its
cargo over the bay. In an instant a
fleet of small boats put out and began
to gather up the floating sacks. 1t was
free-for-au game, and many of the
households of Vallejo tonight are pro-
viGed with -four to last for months to
come. The cargo was valued at
S24, ,000
The -four was part of a lot which
bad been purchased from the San Fran
cisco relief board 1t came originally
from Minneapolis, and it's sale attract
ell unusual notice by reason of the
pr otest made by the donors, who in
sisted at the time that 1t be distrib-
uted among the needy of the city. 1t
had been brought from San Francisco
on the barge and was to have been
stored in one of the local warehouses.
Whether hole was maliciously bored
in the bottom of the barge. as the COM
pc ny claims, or whether the barge COL
1apsed under the weight of the cargo
is not known, but with scant warn
ing this afternoon the vessel capsfzed,
threw its cargo into the bay and broke
in two.
AS the white sacks drifted on the
surface of the water every available
craft on the front was put into service
to secure share of the rich prize.
With long hooks, ropes and chains the
thrifty boatmen labored until the bay
had been cleared.

TONOPAH. Sept 4-The Tonopoh
Mining Company is planning to en-
large the local office, adding new facil-
tiles fortts.A rspid dispatch of the great
quantity of work done there. A new
messhouse for the Office employees will
also be erected that will accommodate
about eighteen. the Office strength of
the mine.
The officers of the Tonopah Explora-
ton Company state that all plans
toward the erection of the big custom
mill at Manhattan are going ahead
smoothly and that so far as the o.-ace
knows there is no possible hitch that
might arise to disrupt the scheme.
Several leasers at work on Manhattan
claims have passed through here in the
past few days. and all state that the
mill will prove great boom TO the
camp. All reports from the camp indf-
cate that the men operating the various
leases are fully assured that the mill
will be put up and are preparing the
low grade rock hitherto passed over
for treatment. On the majority Of the
properties the dumps will pay to work,
as the development was largely done
in ore.
+ General Manager Keyes OF the Virgin
group at Round Mountain, said today
that he was more pleased with the
showing on the property during the
last week or so. The company shaft
on the group Is down 100 feet. and
three men are steadily employed on
the drifts. There are two leases being
operated on this property, and Keyes
