 Shibe, at the time, was deep in the mysteries of the modern cover, for the lnventor-that great unknown, learned mathematician, or untaught, inspired genlus--had not perfected his wondrous scheme of things, In 1868 ball player who had bought the queer novelty In some shop gave his stray sample to shibe, and that expert of the whirllng sphere comprehended at first glance the marvel that had been wrought, Yet, when he came to make it---and for long while he did make It--and even while he sold 1t, with ever-increaslng success and profit, he was dissatisfied

BASEBALL COVERS How They Are Gut and Shaped Great Quantities Are
 Made. l,600 DOZEN A DAY That Is tho Number Made by One Sporting Goods Firm
 Alone.

One sporting goods Arm alone manufactures l,600 dozen standard baseball every working day of the year Anyone can calculate the mll- Hons in the twelvemonth; and any one can count the millions of dollars that total output brings-the best spent millions any people ever paid for the health that comes of honest outdoor sport, says the Philadelphia North American,
 Two members Of the firm If A. w. Reach X Co, finger on, hearty as the youngest of them, from the days when professional baseball players were not and the game was strictly gen tleman amateurs game. They are "Ar' Reach and Ben" shIbe lt is an old fashioned partnership, where the partners are cronles, with the good old times constantly recalled to cheer the good new times and the vc- tories of youth revived to push the pulses of henignant age. And always the cronlos' chat ends thus:
 Ben. l wonder whether we'll ever find out who 1t was made the first real ball?"
 TAI. there Isn't a man alive to tell the world the name 10 put on his monument.
 That four-leaved clover thing among the illustrauons, is the cover of the old time baseball; and that sphere with the straight line of stitch ing across the top. where the seams of the clover leaves join, Is the ball itself.
 lt i7 ono of the two gilded trophy balls that remain out of the bushel they used to treasure, One of those balls bears the glorious legend "Ath- letics vs, West Philadelphia, July--, 1866: 44 to l9," The other harks another classic year. Athletics vs. Union of Morrisania, August 3, '65 26 to i3."
 said MT Rearh, in one of his vain ef- forts recently, just before he went to his Adirondack camp for the summer, 10 solve the baseball mystery.
 There were two manufacturers with reputations when began to play ball back in the '50s-Harvey Ross of Brooklyn, and John Van Horn of New York city. The cover was made If 'horsehide then as now Ross was a member of the famous old Atlantic club, and they used the Ross ball Van Horn belonged to the Unions of Nor risania, and they used the Van Horn ball
 Both were good balls as well made az man could make them in that day Their one weak spot was where the ends of the cover were stitched to- gether; lt was usually there that the cover ripped during a hard game
 Even when l went into business, in '6G, those two were the standard balls. When the new hall did appear oh, what a fortune tho man threw away who invented fl and did not pat ent it---it did not at first spring into popularity The reputation Of the Ross hau was too firmly fixed But gradually the absolute perfection of the new design. combining such sim plicity with such a maximum of strength. compelled the total abandon ment of the old form. The figure s, az we call the modern cover became the standard recognized the country oyer"

hustled them through some snappy work, after which he turned his at tenton to the linemen. The sturdy youths worked hard and went through their work with much enthusiasm. Only such earnest and diligent work will be able to develop a strong team and one able to cope somewhat with the Yale freshman next Saturday
 Saxe, one of the most promising of the candidates for the back field again performed stellar work at yesterdays practice. Hitting the line with terri ic force he found hls way for touchdown. When the pigskin was again brought out then Saxe followed up his tactics and again crossed the line with the ball after hard line plunging. osborn had his hands full when hc had Capt Davis to overcome Roth students jumped right at each other, and made matters lively In tho vicinity of the tackle position. Present indications point to a place on the varsity for Osborn, who Is a sopho- more at the school. This Is his first attempt for place in the varsity and If his good work continues, he ought to become a fixture on the high eleven
 The first team scored twice on tho second. pushing the ball over the line by strong line playing Capt Davis continually reversed the men and the Following composed tho first team through most of the practice:
 Herrt", right end, osborn. right tackle, Tousey. right guard Gladstone. center, Zimmerman, left guard; Davis left tackle: Franco. letf end: Koletsky, quarterbark saxe, left halfback; Bird, fullback; Dunn, right halfback.
