Buck~Freeman's Release.

In connection with the release of Buck
Freeman by Boston to Washington there
lies tale.
1t is said, and on GOOD authority, that
Freeman was the player slated for the first
base job on the Milwaukee team and that
If Joe cantillon had waived claim on the
player he would now be in the brewer line
up. 1t is known that President Havenor
had lines out for the crack fielder, who is
one of the most famous batsnen in tho big
leagues, and that he had the promise of the
Boston management that Freeman would
be sold to Milwaukee if all the American
League clubs waived claim On him. Six of
the clubs, it is claimed, waived on him, but
when ii came to Washington. Cantillon
thought that he could use Freeman in the
Washington or Minneapolis outfield. and
accordingly refused to waive. This result
ed in the release of the player to Washing
ton and now Il Havener gets the old-tine
star he win have to purchase him from Can
tillon.
The report that Jake Beckley was the
man Havener Is after is unfounded The
st. Louis club is willing to let Moose Bax-
ter go, but 1t is hardly probe bic that Beck
ley will go to Milwaukee.

When Lave Has on His Kiddins
Clothes.
: Outsit , Of base ball the only sport that
appeals to Lave Cross is duck hunting, and
for this purpose Lave bought himself a
farm down on the Delaware bay which has
clear sweep Of the water. and in the OH
season it is really the talk of the neighbor-
hood the manner in which Lave shows all
the other natives how to bag the biggest
number of the web-footed fowls.
Lave Is also jokist, whose wit is in

the silent outfielder, 'for guessing"

Lave, what is the difference between a

"One brings the canvasback and the other

The Kind You Hear About.
When Broadway Alex Smith, the once

the lobby Of a downtown hotel, and the
talk turned on lucky winners at the racing

bunch for his Baltimore ball team, was
telling Aleck about some fellow who was

NO" yawned the dressy one; that's the

New Basis for Decision.
There is umpire in California who
made decision in midwinter game this
year that ought to go down as historic.
The game was between Azusa and Po-
mona-and it was for blood. There was a
long argument before the umpire finally
was chosen. and The choice fell upon a
slender serious looking. bespectacled young
man who had from Monrovla, which Is
neutral far as Pomona and Azusa are
concerned.
In the ninth inning. with Azusa one run
to the good. there came a peculiar play
Pomona had man on first and a man on
third. The man on first started to steal on
the first pitched ball, and the catcher who
apparently was the best ball player on the
team, whipped the ball down to third. The
man was caught FIVE feet off the base. but,
seeing he was gone, he jumped back
bumped the baseman, causing him to lose
the ball which rolled almost over to the
schoolhouse and two runs scored
To the surprise of almost every one the
umpire promptly called the base runner out
and awarded the game to Azusa
Some one inquired anxiously why the de-
cisicn was made, and the umpire replied:
HE is out for conduct unbecomng a gen.
ueman.'
John McGraw would do well with such an
umpire.
