Phenomenal Batter.

A man who is nearly as important to
his team as its best pitcher, as shown
by his work this year, is Hans Wag-
ner, the famous shortstop of the Pitts
burg team. Wagner is the greatest
all around player in the world. His
batting is not sensational; it is phenom-
email. Experts consider a man who
makes one hit in every game he plays
to be an unusually good batsman. To
Wagner the making of three hits in
one contest is an event of only or
binary Importance. In two games
played against New York in July Wag-
ner made seven consecutive hits, three
of them being two baggersy constitut-
ing a new and novel worlds record.
He scored five of the hits in one game
in five times at bat making three con-
secutive hits off the delivery of the
great Mathewson. Strangely enough,
Wagner bats better against Mathew
son than against many pitchers readily
acknowledged to be vastly inferior in
ability Like "Three Finger" Brown,
Wagner was worker in a coal mine
III MS carrier Gays.
Tyrus Cobb Of Detroit and Captain
Lajoie of Cleveland are two of the
widely talked of American league play
ers. Cobb, a comparatively new big
league player, is a mighty batsman,
leading his league. Lajoie, once a
hack driver in Worcester, Mass, now
earns $4,000 a year playing second
base and running the Cleveland Blues
that recently forged to the top in the
pennant race.
More baseball teams have made mon
ey this season than in any other. an
undeniable evidence of the progress Of
the game The attendance throughout
the country has broken records. Club
statisticians agree that at a National or
American league game $500 people
must pay admissions each day to meet
the club expenses. When paid attend
ance runs below this number the club
loses money.
In the American league the pennant
race, while not so continuously close
as the National, has afforded plenty Of
excitement Detroit, St Louis, Cleve-
land and Chicago have set the pace
most Of the year.
The worlds series" contests and
their probable outcome are leading
topics of the hour in baseballdom.
The worlds championship in the
worlds greatest game is a prize for
which millions of dollars are spent
each year, and the team that secures

made very big something out Of q
very little nothing AS a result invest
ments are made. the investors know
ing almost to certainty what they
can rely on TO secure fair return.
When the New York American league
team was organized by Frank Farrell,
over 100000 was spent before a single
dollar was taken In. Does not that
show what confidence capital has
come to have 10 the earning capacity
of a baseball team? The large sums
spent on baseball by the public and by
the club promoters arouse amazement
when made public but this year all
records are in the process Of demoli-
ton. The average yearly expenses of
an American or National league club
are now over $4,000, and this sum
will probably be exceeded In future

A National Success.

While for England cricket made
success Of titanic war. in America a
titanic war made baseball a national
success. 1t was the soldiers of ths
civil war who learned and played the
game In their camps, who, returning to
their homes. formed teams and thus
scattered baseball from ocean TO ocean.
Baseball today. in the sixty-third
year of its career as regularly de-
fined pastlme, has attained not only
national and international but world
wide sway. 1t Is the worlds greatest
game. played In this country alone by
upward Of 100000 men and boys
whose contests are viewed by over
100000 people yearly. In England
and Australia, to japan, the Philip
pines and Cuba. the game has spread.

zen who hungers to hear the resound-

What happened in the newspapers?
The big dailies spread the baseball

Vast Business Enterprise.
md how has this come about?

And how has this come aboutf
Because baseball is soundly organ
lied. It is a vast business enterprise,
run on business principles. Business
men have made it worth the while Of
able, brainy men to devote their lives
to studying and developing the art of
throwing a ball that curves, of hitting
curving balls with a bat and of catch
ing thrown and batted balls. These
able, brainy men thus develop the sci
entifc side of the game that almost
every full blooded American citizen
has learned to believe is the greatest
sport medium on earth. The magic
spell, the growing fascination Of base
ball, is explainable as arising from the
all important element Of chance, the
opportunities for spectacular daring,
its competitive possibilities, its POSSIBLE
tiles in the development of special
skill and the ever pressing need Of
violent action and the exercise of I'M
erring quick wit. Actual science in the
exposition Of a game comprising these
picturesque elements must necessarily
attract the support of a nation tenn
peramentally excitable, like the Amer

have not been slow to take advantage

Device TO Prevent Occupants From
Being Hurled Out.
The present tendency Of automobile
lists to drive their cars at the highest
possible speed has lmpelled resident
OF Germany to devise what he calls a
safety device for occupants of vehl-
cles." In his mad desire to travel at a
mile minute gait the man at the
steering wheel is oblivious to the safety
Of the others IN the car. He can read
lily retain his equilibrium because of
constant holding Of the steering wheel,
while the others in the car are forced
in all directions and frantically clutch
at the sides to prevent being thrown
out.
AS shown in the Illustration, his OBJ
ject is to provide a detachable set Of
spring harness for each occupant,
whereby they are prevented from be-
ing pitched out when rounding curves
and hurdling ruts. This harness con-
