Past the blossoms in the lane.
An it's oh! to have a sweetheart
In the old sweet days again.

Still we sigh in vain
For the pathway to the picnic
Through the blossoms il the lane;
Only the sweets of Memory
For withered lips to drain.

HANS WAGNER STRIKES OIL.
Famous Ball Player Interested in
West Virginia 0usher.

PITTSBCRG, November 2.-"Luck, plr
and simple; just plain Dutch luck" was
the remark of Hans Wagner, the famous
ball player. Saturday night when. on get.
ting out of his auto at the Carnegie pa
garage, he received telegram saying tina,
an oil we'll in which he is interested in
West Virginia had reached the pay SAND
and was flowing at q rate which threaten
to give the champion ball player q gooC
have before. Wagner is arranging for d
hunting trip in the Rocky mountains ant
says he won't see the well until he comes
back.
1t appears that after the close of the bal
season Wagner went hunting in West Vir.
ginia, where he was the guest of DR.
Miller, an old acquaintance, at Wellsburg
Miller was about to take up some oil
leases at Beech Bottom. w. Va, and he
induced the champion batsman sto put ii
a few hundred dollars into the venture
The ground was leased and work on an OF
well was started at once. Wagner did nc,
tell his friends here of his flyer In oil
and it was not until the message came
last night that the well was through the
pay sand and was a producer far beyond
the widest hopes Of any one connected
with 1t that it became known.
1t is understood that Claude Ritchey
second baseman Of the Boston Nationals
who is great chum of Wagner and who
has made fortune out of oil himself
advised Wagner to go into the West Vir-
gnia venture.

JAPANESE TEAMS
Defeat AMERICANS

SEATTLE, Wash, November AFTER
amending ten weeks In Japan, twelve
youths composing the base ball squad OF
the University of Washington, have ar
rived home on the Nippon Yusen- Kaisha
Japanese line steamer Tosa Maru.
The team participated in ten games
with the strongest Japanese base ball
teams. and it Is an indication of the
Jap's adaptability that he defeated the
Americans four times out of ten. He
simply beat the Americans at their own
game.
1.-THE Japanese boys played better bal
than we thought they would, and oui
work was hardly up to standard" said
Manager Howard Gillette. THE Japa.
nese players proved the shiftest men on
their feet l have ever seen on base bal
diamond. and their fielding was prob
ably superior to that of the average
American amateurs Our pitchers were
considerably distressed by bad arms
throughout all our stay in Japan, but
in spite of this there was not game
in which we did not get more hits than
our opponents. Our reception by the
Japanese from the hour we left Seattle
could not have been more cordial. Every
detail and arrangement was carried out
tremendously, and the cordially pro
vided makes US all feel that Japan's ball
players and their loyal fans constitute
sportsmen to emulate.
In ten games a total attendance OF
rocco was reported. In a drizzi.ng rain
5000 people paid to see the opening game
at Toxic.
The spirit of fairness that marked the
treatment of the Washington team was
the subject for favorable remark by each
of the returning players.
The tour of the Washington players was
made possible by ARRANGEMENTS COM

ting team We're guaranteed.

CLUBS SEEKING NEW PARKS
Magnates Realize Game Has Out
grown Present Accommo-
dationS.

One Of the best base ball parks in the
American League is being planned by the
owners of the Detroit ball club. When fin-
ished it will be along the lines of the Ath-
letics' new park, to be opened next sea-
son.
Nothing definite has been announced as
yet in regard to the new ball grounds,
but it is possible that they will not be
situated where the present plant is The
club has several other good sites in con-
sideration. and may take any one OF
them.
During the coming winter months the
plans will assume more definite shape. Tie
owners feel that new park must be
| built and are ready to go ahead as soon
as possible.
All over the country there has come a
realization that base bal has outgrown
| its present accommodations.
Comiskey. in Cbicago is now seeking a
new site to build big stadium. III st
Louis Owner Hedges IS already rebuilding
his present park and in CLEVELAND ana
other cities plans are being MADE 10 suit
the demands Of the public.
1T will not be many years now before
every city has its base ball stadium" de-
clared Harry Pull am. National League
president. the other day while discussing
this feature of the game The bigger
cities will have stadiums the equal Of the
big Harvard plant to accommodate the
public
The idea is to get away from the me-
cessity of having ground rules There
should be parks big enough to seat the
biggest of crowds. Thousands OF dollars
were lost to the club owners this year
because the park accommodations were
not big enough.
For instance $4,000 people saw the de-
Gliding game between the Cubs and the
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1908-11-02

Giants. National Lacquer who was at
the game estimated that 100000 would
have attended instead IL seats could have
been supplied Thousands and thousands
made no effort to go to the game because
of the crush they knew would be there.
AS 1t was, thousands who did go to the
park were refused admittance.
