FORMERS GREAT PITCHING.
GIANTS BOX ARTS REoAiNs HIS
FORMER CUNNlNG-WON THtR-
TY-FivE OUT OF FORTY-FouR
GAMES.
By THOMAS F. CLARK.


The baseball season Of 1908 has been
marked by sensational performances
In pitching and catching, but the great
est of all batteries is the Mathewson-
Bresnahan combination OF the New
York Nationals.
Christy Mathewson has long been
known as an unusually effective twirl
Or. but in the thrilling baseball race
Just closed he attained new heights,
ably assisted by Roger Bresnahan,
who works better with Matty than
any other catcher. Matty and Bresna-
play in every respect, no matter how
minute, and they operate together
like a piece Of we'll oiled machinery. 1t
is stated that Manager McGraw would
not take $4,000 for the Mathewson-
Bresnahan battery.
Mathewson was never better In his
career than he was the past season.
He had all his old speed and every
thing else that has made him famous
He proved conclusively this year the
assertion 0ften made that he is the
greatest twirler in baseball. Matty led
his league in pitching. winning thirty
i've out Of forty-four games and strik-
ing out over 24O batters.
In 1905 Matty was hailed as the
greatest pitcher of them all. Nasal
dtphtheria laid him 1o-y in 1906, and it
WIS not until the middle Of the 1907
season that he fully recovered.
The friends of Mathewson will never
forget the summer of 1906. when big

he simply could not round into form,
and clubs which he had easily beaten
In former years drove him to the bench
time and again. One day he went in
against Chicago and was slaughtered
In the first inning. The Giants were
beaten that day by a score of 10 to o.
In later game with the same team he
was called on by McGraw to stop
batting rally. The bases were full at
the time, and Jimmy Sheckard hit the
nrst ball Matty pitched for home
run. .
Matty threw down his glove and
went to the clubhouse without a word
He won a few games during the sea-
son, but showed little of his real class
and didn't do great deal better in the

FOR THE LITTLE ONES.
The Came of Head, Body and Legs Is
Great Funmaker.

One of the most amusing diver
sions there is for small circle of
people, whether young or old, is the
old English game called head, body
and legs. You pass to each player
slip of paper, say by 6 inches in
size. Zach one then draws at the
top of his paper a head, making it
as ludicrous as his imagination and
artistic skill can suggest. He then
folds the paper back so that just a
little of the neck is left in view and
passes it to his right hand neighbor.
Each player lin the same way next
draws on the paper handed to him
a body, joining it to the neck the
first player has made, and each pa
per, after being folded back, is pass
ed to the next right hand neighbor
again. Each player then completes
the picture by adding feet to the
body and folds the paper once more
and passes it on. Finally each one
names the creature by writing on
the bottom any title he chooses,

Monkey In Sight.

One girl leaves the room, while
the others hide a thimble or some
other small object. When they are
ready they call "Whoop!" and she
enters. If she moves toward the
hiding place, they cry, "You burn"
"Now you burn more" If she goes
very near, they say, ooh, now she is
most blazing!" If she moves from
the object, they say, GLOW cold she
growsp If the article is found, the
finder cries, Monkey in sight!" and
then she has the pleasure of hiding
it as some other child leaves the
room.
Hide and seek is played similarly,
as is shot buttered blue beans," the
only difference in the latter being
that the child outside is called into
the room with these Words
'FIot buttered blue beans,
Please come to supper"
