What Al Orth Lived On.

Frank Farrell. the owner OF the New
York club. was telling the other day how
glad he was to get away from having any
part in the ownership OF the Montreal
team of the Eastern League, which club
Farrell and Willie Keller bought couple
of years ago. with the intention of making
il sort of nursery for young players. so
that when they made showing they
could be drafted into the ranks of the
New York Americans.
The idea was all right. but after drop
ping good many dollars i'll the venture
Farrell and Keller pulled out some time
after the close o. the recent season. Mr.
Farrell said the other day that he thought

stomach was out of killer all the season.
and when a mans insides are not tOeing

liver the goods when 1T comes TO doing
base ball stunts.
Stomach trouble is disease that a
great many professional base ball men
suffer with. II put Clark Griffith down

Chick Stahl. and it finished "Zaza'
Harvey. the swell Cleveland outfielder as
far as base ball was concerned
Last summer when Willie Keller was
suffering the most with this distressing
complaint he and Clark Griffith were
sitting on the bench up at the Highland

Ing. when Keller sadly said To Criff:

ters declared that there wasn't enough
dirt inside of the fence to form the
mound at the plate and second base, and
teams were hired to bring soil in. OF
course. this was a hyperbolical way of
stating the case, but Parke was only
playing the game as he had seen others
play it, and there was nothing in the
rules which forbade him building his
box as high as the moon.
