FINE RECORD OF LEVER
Pittsbure "schooImaster" One of Great
est Pitchers of Game.

Many fans have alluded to the Pitts
burg "schoolmaster" as the lucky
pitcher. The fans may some day cease
talking about Lucky Leever," and
give the Goshen veteran credit for be-
ing what he is-one of the greatest
twirlers the game has ever known.
Look over the records, and you will
discover that it is mighty hard to find
a man with a record as good as that
of the former schoolmaster.
This is Levers eleventh season
with the Pittsburg baseball team. He
Joined the Buccaneers in 1898, but had
a sore arm and pitched but a single
game, which he won. He went back
to Richmond, from which team he
had been secured, and remained there
until the next spring, when he again
joined the Pirates, and has been a
Pittsburg twirler ever since. He is
the only player now with the team
who was with Pittsburg prior to the
coming of President Dreyfuss and the
consolidation of the Colonies and the
Buccaneers.
Lever has record that cannot be
duplicated-that Of winning almost two
thirds of his games every season he
has been in the league. His average
since he joined the Pirates, up to the
beginning of the present season, is
.661, he having won 1874 games and lost
81. His record by seasons follows:

NO ROOM FOR SENTIMENT
in BASEBALL OF TO-DAY
ming Teams Is conspicuousIy
Absent.

Sentiment and good baseball can
net jibe. What you did yesterday on
he ball field matters nothing. It's
what you do to-day. The star who
Won q flag for his team one year may
ind that the next season brings a
faster and younger man to take his
place If the team is properly run.
And this spirit is carried out to the
players. There Is no sentiment during
the game. The player who is hurt is
seldom given cheering word. They
.eel sorry, of course, but they haven't
lime to offer regrets-this getting hurt
S all in the game.
In the recent Trimming game in
Philadelphia, when Freddie Payne
made his famous throw to second
which caught Topsy Hartsel off the
bag and saved the day, the Athletic
left fielder was heart-broken. But
little cared the Tigers. AS O'Leary
tagged him out, he didn't say: Il got
you that time, old boy" or anything
like that; my, no. Here's what he said:
Now sneak back to the bench and
get alongside of Connie Mack; tell
MIN all about it, how you threw the
game away, you big bonehead. Get
under the bench with RUDE Waddell
and cry yourself to sleep. Let men
play the game"
Kindly spirit, no; but it impressed
upon Hartsels mind the fact that he
had lost the game, that his sleepiness
had brought on the turning point OF
the struggle, that If anybody was to
win it would be the Tigers. That
mental suggestion made him a bad
ball player the rest of the day.
When George Moriarity tossed away
! two-hit game at Cleveland for Jack
Chesbro by throwing the ball into
The bleachers on grounder from
Crawford, did Sam say anything about
tough luck as he passed third? Nope.
Sam said:
"The yellow had to show, hey? un-
ierstand you've thrown the game"
Moriarity was so blazing mad that
during the rest of the game he could
not have thrown to first on bet with
out taking plenty Of time to steady
himself.
There is no sentiment in baseball,
with winning team. When there is,
the fight, the dash, the fire that makes
the game what 1T is, is gone. Senti-
ment and good baseball are like oil
and water.

Law Is Valid.

st. Paul-The state board Of control
by a decision of the supreme court
will now be able to proceed with the
location and erectionAof the state hos
pital and farm for inebriates. The
court has affirmed the decision
of the lower court in a test case
brought by the board of control
against the city Of Morris and held
the law constitutional which sought to
establish the farm.
The law was passed by the last
legislature and provided that 2 per
cent of the income from liquor IL
censes in all the municipalities Of
the state was to be sent to the state
treasurer for separate fund for the
maintenance Of a farm and hospital
for habitual drunkards. Morris re-
fused to pay the per cent, alleging
that 1t was taking property which was
not subject to tax and that the state
didn't have the right anyway to put
man in a hospital because he drank
too much and the law must be wrong.
But the supreme court, in decision
written by Chief Justice Start, says
that the law is all right and that moth
ing was enacted which cannot be car
ried out in legal manner.

The semicircular erections were

Harvard traversed the field in a gen.

the willow where it gave the greatest
leverage and struck a graceful atti-
tude. However, he struck nothing else,
for he who evolves the sphere now
entered into a series of remarkable
contortions, from which the globe
finally emerged, describing a perfect
parabola, whose orbit seemed unap-
proachable to the disconnected scien-
fist. The process being repeated three
consecutive times. the unfortunate stu
dent retired, bursting into tears.
His successor was more successful,
succeeding in approaching into closer

Adopt Shin Guards.

1t is rather remarkable fict that
two of the toughest catchers in the
major leagues, Roger Bresnahan and
mig" Clarke, should be the first 10
adopt the shin guards. Both are the
hardest sort of players and look as
if they would be able to stand whole
lot of banging. The reason for their
adoption of the protectors might be
found, however, in the fact that both
are the hardest sort of workers. They
are after everything and are always
playing fighting baseball. For this
reason they are more likely to be in
jured than many of their less active
contemporaries. The only possible
objection to the guards is that the
time used in taking them off and put.
ting them on sometimes delays the
game a trifle. Otherwise they look
like sensible innovations.

AMERICAN ASSOCIATION
ALLITERATIVE ASSEMBLAGE
Teams of BIS and C's Would Make
Strong Showing, While VS.
Would Also Run Strong

Any artful ALTERATION overdone is
nm example of audacinus effrontery
or so say the great literary sharks of
all time The Greeks started it by
framing up maxim: Nothing to ex-
cess" The Romans rIade only one
exception to the rule, fighting, and
handed it on down. When the Ger
mans found it they i'm nediately ex-
Guided beer from the ls W, and passed
it on over to the Irish who in turn
took baseball out of the list affected
by the nothing to-eXcess maxim.
Therefore, anything goes in baseball
even artful or artless alterations.
What started all this, however, was a
glance over the batting averages of
the American association and the
noting of the fact that strong allitera-
tive teams could be selected.
There are not enough AS to form a
team, but the BIS would do with a
little judicious padding here and there.
Becbley, Brashear, Bush and Burke on
the ,nfield would push Brown, Bate
man and Barbeau to the outfield;
Bevilie could catch and Brandon
pitch. Mixing the metaphors slightly,
these BIS certainly would make hay.
The C's are also to the marsh q, allows.
Put Cook, Coulter and Ccugalton,
outfielders; Carr, Carlisle, Cross and
Clark, fnfielders; Crisp, catcher, and
Curtis pitcher, together in the same
bottle; shake well before using, and
strong mixture will be the result.
If Mccormick, McChesney and Nc
earthly could get rid of the Mes, they
would strengthen the C's wonderfully.
No DIS, Els or Fs appear numerous
enough to form teams, and there are
only four Gs. a-
The HIS are strong, with Hughes
and Howley, catchers; Hall and Hit.
pitchers; Hopkins, Hayden and Hall,
man could fill the outfield, with Har-
ley as shortstop and Hugh Hill on
first base; Hopke and Hitchman would
complete the infeld. Going on down
the list again, there are six KS, five
LIS and eight Ms, counting Mes, of
course. The only other letter in the
A. A. alphabet that sports a team is
w, and it puts up great crowd.
Nobody would kick on Wood, Wilson
and West for pitchers, and Wakefield
for the backstop. Woodruff, Welday
and Wiser would work well in the
gardens, while Otto Williams, Clyde
Williams, Zeke Wrigley and Eddie
Wheeler could be shuffied around most
any way in the infield. If anybody OBJ
jects to Wrigley under the reformed
spelling rules, one of the pitchers
would have to play second base.

First New Grain.

Minneapolis-Firs new grain from
the harvest fields northwest struck
town the 9th, the Great Western
bringing in a car of barley, shipped
by c. D. Orr, of Northfield, to McIn-
tyre-Frerich of the Chamber of Com
merce.
Much interest always attaches to
the first movement and buyers watch
it closely as price and quality indica-
ton for the big run later on. The
Mortified car tested AZ pounds to the
bushel, was a good berry, of medium
color, and with buyers crowding about
and inspecting it, was sold finally to
T. M. McCord for Sc cents a bushel.
Such price for barley, after taking
out freight and charges, leaves a pro-
f1table return for the producer, and as
there is good big barley crop in the
Dakotas and Minnesota this year the
season has opened auspiciously.
A car Of new rye, from Ottawa,
shipped to Bremen, was received here
later. 1t was delivered to w. T. Fra
ser.

Surest Method by Which One May
Forget His Own Woes.

The surest way to forget woes is to
become interested in the troubles of
those about u.s. If anything can bring
home to us the knowledge that we
have many blessings left after the
blight of misfortune has struck us, it
is the poverty and wretchedness of
those who have less. This is dem
onstrated by the life of one young
man who forgot a heartache in divid-
ing his income and time with little
crippled children.
He was preparing a home for the
bride he expected to take in week,
when she was stricken by mortal
illness. Her burial took place ON the
day set for the wedding, and the
stricken lover found that her loss
meant an aching void which he could
not escape by ordinary means. He
happened to be passing large hos
pital for crippled children one morn
ing, when a new inmate was being
transferred from q carriage; . wee

Easter, and the memory of the Incl

The next day he sought a florists
place and bought large quantity of
flowers which he carried to the hos

five years and brought pleasure to
hundreds of little sufferers. One-half
of the mans income is spent in toys,
flowers and delicacies for the children,
with rides for those who can stand
them, and he finds life far from the
joyless existence he dreaded to face
when his grief was fresh.
