lures were of the mirth-provoking
kind as well as wonderful and mys-
terious. everybody who attended en-
joyed a series OF hearty laughs-a

He had an itching desire to ask if
this night traveller, too, was in quest

silent. He had need to proceed war;

judged he had gone far enough to
allay suspicion, then he halted sud-

Jim, of course, was spotted and would

The second team will be managed by
Johnnie NARROW, and will consist of play

Both teams will be fully uniformed and
each will be entered in an amateur league,

BASE BALL YARNS.
By Revere Rodgers.
Isbell's Weird Throw

Frank Isbell. the veteran second base
man of the Chicago White Sox club, start
ed as a pitcher. He used an underhand
ball that was the greatest kind of a puz-
zle to the opposing batsmen. Had Frank
been able to control this peculiar delivery
he would have gone down into base ball
history as a great twirler.
This peculiar throw of Isbells once lost
holly contested game with New York
when Arson was his boss. The game
was played on the New York grounds.
1t was in the ninth inning of the contest
and New York had two men on bases,
and Capt. Arson pulled his infield in to
head off the runner at the plate.
Isbell was subbing at short for Dahlen,
and with Van Haltren at the bat things
were mighty serious looking for Chicago.
AT the second ball pitched Van landed
in trying to make quick return, work.

went ten feet to the left of Arson, and
two men came over the plate.
With an oath Arson strobe over to

Jimmy Ryan's Nerve.

One of the nerviest plays he ever saw
pulled off on a ball field, says Bobby
Carruthers, the veteran umpire, occurred
a few years ago, when he was umpiring
in the Western League. Jimmy Ryan
was managing the Colorado Springs club,
and keeping this second division outfit
in the first division. He was having a
strenuous time In doing SO, but Jimmy
was game and kept hustling for the pen
nant.
Colorado Springs nearest rival for
championship hOnors was Denver. and
when Jimmy's crowd opened up a series
with them on the Colorado Springs
grounds everybody who could get to the
grounds was there.
The score in the eighth inning of the
first days game was to in Denver
favor. Colorado Springs had two men on
the bases and two out, when the star
sticker of the club strobe to the plate.
This swat artist hit at the first two balls
pitched, and he swung widely. Then up
rose Jimmy Ryan, who hadn't played in
a game the whole season. With two strikes
on him and no balls, Jimmy fouled the
first three pitched, and on his next
chance drove the horsehide against the
left field fence for three bases.
Two runs came over the plate, and
these were sufficient to win the game.
Carruthers says that Ryan was the candy
kid with the vast crowd, but II Ryan had
struck out, then what, Ell?

Lee Viau's Comeback.

Lee Viau, who once played with Cleve-

man in base ball in those days and he
was made an idol of by the lady fans,
who used TO come to the ball park in
droves when Lee was carded to twjrl.
One afternoon at Cleveland the Chicago
club had three runs to the Clevelanders
T. In the ninth inning. with two out and
one man on base, the mighty Arson
strobe 10 the plate. Lee put two strikes
over OH this hardy swatter and the
women cheered frantically.
Strike him out Lee; oh, strike him
out" they cried.
who told you that you were a ladies'
mani" sneered the mighty Arson.
Lee wound one around the big fellow S
neck before replying and Arson swung
savagely and missed.
Three strikes and OUT shouted the
umpire.
Now" said Lee. striding up to Ans.

fellow who told you that you could bat"
