used in It's sense We read of the census office

Searching for data" in the same way. They all
ought to be told that datum is something given
and data facts which already at hand for

Rurnum,s PitchlnE Recora.

Tn recent comment by The Adver- tiser on the prospects of the local pitching stan for 1907, the statement was made that If Burnum pitched the ball this year he did last he would be all right. The way In which 1t was originally written was that If Burnum pitches the ball this year that he did for Atlanta in 1905, he will be all right" 4.
 Local fans all know Burnum made a miserable failure in Montgomery last year. He was sick in the early spring, and by the time he had pitched few games here. when the season opened. he realized he was out of condition and asked to be allowed to so back to his home
 In the summer of 1905. Burnum was among the best in the Southern League His batting was not high, but in fielding he ranked third in the list of pitchers in the Southern League.
 Lew Moren of Atlanta led the pitch CTS of the league that year with thirty i've games pitched. twenty i've put outs. eigflty-three assists and one error, a fielding average of .s9o. Next to him was Whiteridge of New Orleans with sixteen games pitched. six put outs, thirty-f four assists and one error with a fielding average of 's75 Bur mum was third on the list wieh twenty two games. ten putouts, fifty-eight assists and two errors, with neldinS average O. .971.
 Out of nineteen games pitched that year. he won eleven and lost eight, coming close to the great record made by Starkell and Mccoy. If Burnum shows something of his 1905 form this year. he will bear out the prediction of John Malarky. that he will be one of the tlp-toppers of the Southern League
