PITCHER COAKLEY
SOAKED WAODELL

That story about WaddelI and myself
having a run-in season before last in
which tossed a valise at the big south
paw is substantially correct" said Pitcher
Andy Coakley. one of the new Reds,
aprOpOs to nothing in particular. Incl
dentially, that little alteration may have
cost the Philadelphia Athletics. with
whom both of us were at the time, the
worlds championship, for according to
reports WaddeH was unbale to pitch in
the series because of the bad effects the
collision between him and my grip had
on his arm.
''Waddell has peculiar ideas about jOk-
ing, and there are times when one really
must resent his pleasantries or become
thoroughly cOwed and misera bic. It was
on one of these occasions that I made
valise-putting record. heaving the heavy
leather carrier some distance, and landing
fairly on the mark 1t may be also be that
that episode was responsible for Manager
Macks willingness to part with me after
my illness of last season, as affairs Of
that kind do endanger the best feeling in
a team, each participant having some sort
of 2 following that is bound to antagon-
ize the other fellows at some time or
other. I understand that the Reds are
not harboring any of these so-caIled &c
centric individuals this season So much
the better for the team"

"P0P" ANSON WAS
BADLY Ratified

One afternoon in the long ago Buck
Ewing was playing against the Chicago
team. There were men on first and sec
ond, and Ewing was at bat. Naturally it
would have been the correct thing to sac
rifice. but Ewing was a strong right-field
hitter and the Chicago second baseman
and Arson were laying back to trap him,
while the shortstOp had swung well over
toward second
Hey, Anse," shouted Ewing with his
usual laugh. I'm going to put one
through you
Arson flushed lobster red and shouted
'I'll get you five to three you don't
1T goes" said Ewing, and he had no
more than spoken when he slammed the
ball so straight at Arson that the first
baseman had no time TO get out OF its
way.
At the best Arson was not the most
perfect fielding first baseman in the bust
mess. and Illustrated as he was with his
little repartec with Ewing and general
and wholesome desire not to show him
self up before the crowd, he was still
playing tag with the bali at his feet when

ONCE WHEN HANL0N
CHANGED HIS MIND

Harry Lumley. brother of Frank LUm-
ley Of Eureka. began his playing i'm the
eastern league about six or seven years
ago. lie went from there to the Colo
RADIO Springs nine of the western league.
At that time Jimmy Ryan was handling
the Western club. No one heard much of
him there and he drifted to the Pacific
Coast lea que. Then he began to get good.
One of the Eastern scouts sighted him in
y game at Portland one day and reported
to Ebbeis that there was a man that was
a wonder.
Ebbets drafted him at the time that
Ned HanlOn was managing the Brook
lynites. 1t was the spring of 1904 that
Lumlcy started with the National league.
and after a weeks trial Manager Hanion
quietly told Owner Ebbets one day that
his new find would never make good.
He hasn't the qualities that make big
league man.. said Hanlon. and ] would
advise you to get rid of him at the first
opportunity" Since that time Hanlon has
left the Brooklyn club and taken the
management Of the Cincinnati club, and
only last summer he went to Ebbets on
one of the eastern trips of the Reds and
made a cash offer of $4,000 for this very
man that he advised Ebbets to give away
only two years before Lunley is a big.
robust fellow who IS well liked by every
player in the league. Among his team
mates he is known as THE Judge be-
cause he is so sober. He weighs about 200
pounds and is built like Jeffries. but in
spite of his bulk. he can tear around the
bases as fast as any man in the league
But his great power IS at the bat. He
stood third in the National league stick
ing last season with a mark of $50. The
peculiar thing about his batting is that
he can drive ball apparently to any
mart of the field. Most batters hit to
about the same spot all the time. but
the drives of Lumley keep every fielder
on the opposing team in merry chase

that there would soon be in America three

that a fight promoter could hang up a

inside of half a dozen rounds without so
much as turning hair.
