COMING YOUNG PLAYERS.
Several New Men Showed Up in the
Big Leagues This Season.

st. Louis, Nov. 10.-The season just
closed has been great one for the
young players in both major leagues.
In the American, Bush of Detroit
and Schweitzer of St. Louis monopo-
lized a lot of honors.
In Schweitzer, picked up from the
Newark club of the Ohio and Penn
syIvania league, McA1eer has the
making of one of the greatest out
fielders in the business. Schweitzer
was out of the game good portion OF
last year, but showed he possessed the
class in his workouts.
Sid Smith is a clever youngster, and
next year should rank with the best
catchers in the business. Graham is
another phenom, and If he had not
sustained a broken rib many claim the
Browns would have finished higher.
Dode Criss led the league in batting
and is a valuable man.
If Purtell or Atz of the White Sox
could only hit they would surely hold
down the third base job for Comiskey.
Purtell has few superiors as q fielder;
but is mighty feeble with the big
stick. Comiskey has hopes for the
youngster and may start him regular
ly next year.
Connie Mack is delighted over two
Of his pick-ups, Strunk of Shamokin
and Lapp Of Syracuse. Strunk is only
10 years old, but shows great promise.
He is a. clever fielder, stands nicely at
the plate and can run the bases in
regular Cobb style. Lapp looks like
conner behind the bat. but lacks ex-
perience.
walter Blair secured from the Will
Transport team, promises to be valu-
able man for the Yankees behind the
bat. A year of experience has added
much to Blair'S worth. Gardner, Nc
Tween, Wilson and Cree also look
mighty good.
Iris Speaker the Boston outffelder
in a few games this fall won his place
as a regular. Speaker was secured
from the Little Rock team and led
the Southern league in batting.

JOINTIsTs LET OFF EASY.
Atchison officials and Defendants At
torneys Compromise Gases.

Atchison, Kan, Nov. 10.-By an
agreement between County Attorney
Guthrie and Assistant Attorney Gen
eral Shukers, representing the state,
and G. J. Conlon, James Challiss and
w. P. Waggener, representing the de-
PENDANTS, the liquor cases, which were
called up for trial were compromised.
Where there was more than one charge
against the defendant, all but one was
dismissed, and this one complaint, to
which the defendant plead guilty, was
that of maintaining a nuisance.
Those who pleaded guilty were fined
500, costs, $25 attorneys fees and 30
days in Jail. Instead of putting the
Jail sentence into execution, Judge
Hudson paroIed the men upon their
agreement to keep out of the business,
and report once month for the next
two years to the district court.
Those who had their cases settled
upon the above terms are Charley
KIostermeier, Jake Schilling, Jerry
Kermode and John Beck. The cases
against NJ. L. Gruenhut and Pat Price
were dismissed, they agreeing to pay
the costs. Everett Diegel, w. B. Lew
is and George Irwin also pleaded guilty
to one count and the other counts were
dismissed.

to be wonder. There is a word used
in the Polish language meaning good
which is s'dobre,'' and Swift terms this
ball his "dobre ball. He has excep-
tionally long fingers and is able to
place the ball between the index and
second fingers of his left hand. The
two first joints of the fingers clasp one
side of the ball, while the thumb re-
mains underneath it, so that the ball
is clasped almost as tightly as though
in a wise This 'fdobre BALI acts ex-
actly the same as the "spit ball" Tt
breaks in different directions and is in
every sense as difficult to hit as the
spit ball. while the catcher neces-
sarily must exercise the same caution
in catching it. Whenever Swift uses
this ball it renders him remarkably
effective, and no matter what diff
Guilty he finds himself in this species
of delivery proves of great value. No
man can use this "dobre ball" unless
he is favored with a hand such as
Swift carries and even time it is
doubtful if he could use it because it
required years of practice while his
hand was developing for Swift to ac-
quire this feat and particular delivery.

ing to the floor covered with it's mother s
blood. The shooting was witnessed by
the couples five-year-old son and two
girls. aged II and A.
Huber returned to the city last night
and at the supper table asked his wife
when she would be ready, to go with him
Il can't go right away" she answered
well, you'll never go any place else, i"
he said, and, drawing revolver, began
shooting. The wife was the first victim.
The mother-in-law. who escaped, came
next. He then placed the muzzle to his
own head and fired.
Huber is a well known police character.
He has been arrested numerous times.
About a wear ago he was arrested charged
with placing dynamite on the Santa Fe
train. The effort failed, but Huber, by
clemency, was allowed his freedom.

F0RHALF CENTURY
Judge John Il. Burris Has
Served Kansas Well.
Came to the State From Iowa
Way Back in 1858.
SETTLED AT OLATHE
Served in the Mexican War and
the War of 1850.
Has Represented Johnson Coun-
ty in a Dozen Offices.

l. Olathe, Kan, Nov. 10.-After so years
of public life in Kansas, Judge John
L. Burris of Olathe. one of the mem
bers of the Wyandotte convention Of
1859, which framed the constitution I'M
der which Kansas was admitted to the
Union, will retire January 1. He is pro-
bate judge of Johnson county.
Il am going to rest a while now he
said. II think 1 have done my duty.
1 will open a law office in Olathe in
January. I have seen Kansas grow
from border colony into a great state
and what little part I played I have
always tried to do we'll. Now 1 will
rest a while"
Judge Burris, who is now so years of
age, came to Kansas from Iowa in
1858. The following year he was del
egate to the Wyandotte convention and
helped frame the state constitution. In
January. 1861, he represented Johnson
county in the last territorial legisla-
ture. The same year President Lin
coin appointed him the first United
States district attorney of Kansas.
Judge Burris resigned this office to
enter the army, enlisting in the Tenth
Kansas infantry. He was at one time
in command at Leavenworth After
returning home he again enlisted and
fought in the Battle of the Blue, near
Kansas City. Before coming to kan
sas Judge Burris had fought in the
Mexican war.
In 1866 Judge Burris became speaker
of the Kansas house of representatives
and again represented his county in
that body in 1858. In 1869 he became
judge of the Tenth judicial district of
which Wyandotte- county was then a
part, succeeding David ]. Brewer, now
on the supreme bench Of the United
States. He served two terms as pros
ecuting attorney of johnson county. In
1899 he was again elected judge of the
Tenth judicial district, which then in
cluded Johnson and Miami counties. He
held this office Il. years. Four years
ago he was elected probate judge of
Johnson county. His friends urged him
to make the race again this year, but
he declined saying he desired to rest
after his long public service. Judge
Burris is still in good health and more
active than many younger men. S. G.
Long will succeed him in the Office of
probate judge.

YAIEs TEAM SHIFTED.
Greatest Change of the Season With
Seven Moved and -Four Retired

New Haven, Nov 10.-The greatest
shift which has been made in a Yale
football team at this time of the sea-
son came today when seven of the
eleven men were moved and four re-
tired. The greatest change of all was
the shifting of Coy, regular fullback,
to the end position played by his broth
er, Sherman Coy, in the fall of 1900 A.
T. BRIGGS, who has been playing right
halfback, was put in at left tackle;
F1ains, who played halfback in the
Brown game, has been given the regu-
lar position of left end; Hobbs was re-
moved from left tackle and Lilley put
in his place; Ford Johnson replaced
Murphy at quarterback and DAILY took
BRIGGS old position; Philbin stayed at
left halfback and Field took Coy's place;
three linemen retained their position
the guards, Andrus and Gobel and the
center Biddle. These changes were de-
cidad upon by a council of coaches.
The team as it now stands will lineup
against Princeton, with perhaps the
possible exception of Field or PhiIbin,
one of whom will be replaced by Whea-
ton

THREE BIG AUTO SHOWS.
Models of 1909 Cars to Be Richly Dis
played in New York.

New York. Nov. 10.-Again this
winter there will be three automobile
shows in New york, two big ones and
a lesser one. The exhibit of the indie
pendent manufa cturers in the Grand
Central Palace comes first, and a fort
night later comes the annual show of
the licensed makers in Madison Square
Garden. The former begins on New
Years eve, while the latter runs from
January 16 to %. During this entire
period of three weeks there will be a
show in the parlors on the Thirty-third
street side of the Waldorf-Astoria,
conducted by the American Locomo-
tive company, just as was the case last
year. This company does not belong
to either of the trade associations, but
keeps itself. like its product, on a dis
tinctive basis. The exhibit at the Wal
dorf had q remarkable interest last
year and attracted a big attendance
during two weeks, and is expected to
have even greater vogue this winter.
