mother Smith let him out. But Schopp
has signed again for next year and will
get his third try-out in a Cracker uni
form. Bill Smith has never quit thinking
that he is the goods
Thus far five new players have been
announced two of whom are not certain
ties as yet. The new men are:
Hem, center field of the Danville team,
and the best outfelder in the Virginia
league.
Tenant, first baseman of the Decatur
team of the Three-I league, who batted
.314 and fielded .937 this season.
kirkpatrick. third baseman from Rich
mond of the Virginia league.
These three men are eertainties.
OF the uncertainties, Tate of Marion is
the most notable performer. He is claim
ed by big league club and his case is
now before the national commission.
Rogers, pitcher from Wheeling, in
the Central league. This man has not
| been bought yet, though Atlanta has an
| option him.
| Just now Billy Smith is scouting and
| will certainly land something good before
| he gets back. He has been in Cincinnati,
where he hoped to close some deals with
Garry Hermann for a couple of Red"
cast-offs. Then he is going to his old
home in Springfield and may get Cen
trail league player or two while he is up
there. Then Bill goes to whatever point
the first worlds championship games are
played, where he will get in touch with
several big league moguls.
Atlanta will not draft many players
this year. Instead Smith has been or
dered to buy any players he can get from
leagues of lower class than the South
ern. In this way Atlanta is not likely
TO fall down on any players that Smith
wants. OF course Bill may slip in Il
draft or two, but 1t will be for players
he is just taking long chance with.
By spending the money Bill Smith
hopes to get first call on some big league
discards, and with these men, the raw
recruits from the little leagues and what
is left of his own club after he finishes
wedding he intends to present Atlanta
with another pennant winner. or at least
with a club that can come very, very
near to turning the trick.

Torturing Animals
To Assist Science
Is a Cruel Method to Follow, But It
Has Saved Many Human Lives.

Professor Pawlow of Russia was en-
gagged for many years In experimental
work, trying to learn the workings of
digestion, especially the digestive glands.
He, with able assistants, operated upon
dogs, cats, guinea pigs and other ami

His methods were seemingly painful.
but he gave to science a work which
won the Nobel prize and made for him
an undying fame.
Science penetrated the secrets of ma
ture Professor Pawlow saw animals d.
gest food. He analysed juices from every
part of the digestive canal and stomach
under all conditions of digestion. He spent
years of ceaseless study amid the howl
ing and dying beasts, but he won, and
science today looks upon him as great
man.

New York, September 2e.-(Special.)-It
first game of the doubleheader between
the Reds and the. Giants this afternoon.
The answer is simple-New York won,
the score being to 2.
McGraws men found Ewing particularly
vulnerable in the third inning when they
hammered him for four runs. Each team
was presented with run through the ball
being thrown into the stands on infieid
grounders.
The Reds other run was the result OF
Bayless driving a wicked one past Sey-
mour for homer in the eighth In
ming.
For the second game, Dubuc, who won
the second game yesterday, was sent
in for the Reds, and Ames was selected
by New York to do the pitching. New
York practically won the game IN the
third inning on a home run by Tenny
and hits by Herzog and Bresnahan fol-
lowed by a sacrifice and a long fly, net
ting two runs.
The $4,000 spectators who had followed
the plays with great enthusiasm, lett
the field at the close convinced thae
New York can get the pennant Tor the
complete reversal of its form of yes
terday seemed to indicate that Manager
McGraw was right when he expressed the
opinion that the setback resulting from
putting in the box the new pitchers
would be easily overcome.
But Chicago's duplication of her double
victory over Brooklyn means that New
York must put up high-grade baseball III

Atlanta VIII Be Free
With Money for Players
BY PERCY WHITING.

Atlanta, September Especial More
money than a southern baseball associa'
ton ever before spent for one team Is
being put into circulation by the Atlanta
Baseball association. And all in quest
of team that can win.
Smarting under criticism, disguised
with defeat and disheartened by de-
creased attendance, the local association
has given Billy Smith orders as follows:
Get players. Damn the expense!"
The local ball association, which is the
street railway in disguise, is backed by
unlimited money. 1t knows that WIN
ming team means big money in gate re-
ceipts and big money for hauling the pa
irons to and from the games.
Hence the enthusiasm in getting rid of
the cash.
Thus far the lavish use of coin has
produced plenty of results, but few of
them have been announced.
1t might be well to glance back and
see what Atlanta has left from its sixth
place aggregation of 1908.
OF the players who were members OF
the club in good standing at the end OF
the season, all were reserved, but two
will be turned over to major league
clubs. They are Ford. who was sold to
New York and Phil Sitton, who was
drafted by Pittsburg. Both of these deals
were bona fide, and Smith has no strings
attached to either man. though he would
be glad to get either back IL the oppor-
tunity should arise
This leaves Bill Smith the following
framework of a team:
Catchers-Herbert Smith and McMur-
ray.
Pitchers-Johns. Maxwell and Viebahn.
Infelders-Tom Fox, first base; Jordan,
second base Clayton, shortstop and
Dyer. third base.
Outfielders-,3ecker and Moran.
Utility Man-Wilkes.
These are the men who were left of
those who were on the grounds when the
Crackers were finally counted out. But
one other man was on the staff and In
good standing-lttle Roy Radabaugh, the
ex-Cedar Rapids pitcher in whom Billy
Smith still has confidence, despite the re-
peated bumps the kid got during his
short and stormy stay in the Southern.
Radabaugh was called away from the
team before the season was over by the
illness of his mother. He will report next
spring.
In addition to the above men, the
Crackers had two notable players sus-
pended on account of injuries-Winters
and Castleton. These men belong to At
lanta and will report in good time next
spring.
Two pitchers were farmed out by Bill
Smith-McKenzie and Atkins. The for
mer went to Richmond where he materi-
ally helped Perry Lipe to win the Vir-
ginia league pennant. The latter went to
Augusta and, after a lot of Illness, gave
1t up and went back to his home In
Ohio TO get in condition. Both of these
men belong to Atlanta, and 1t is the in
tention to have both of them report for
another try-out next spring.
Another pitcher who is slated for just
one more chance is Grant Schopp. The
little Kansas twirler made great start
with Atlanta this season and was Won
Tor a month. Then he began to let
own and for some time was not par
ticularly effective. So when he had to
return home to the bedside of his dying

The fact that the Reds were unable to
stop the Giants was somewhat Of a dis
appointment to the Cubs who atoned
partially for this lack Of assistance by
walloping the locals quite neatly in both
games Of the double header.
Brooklyn was unable to get one tally
out of the five hits made off Reulbach
in the first game which made the Chi
cago pitcher feel SO good that he de-
cided to pitch the second game also. In
this game the Brooklyns were again I'M

CANNoN,s COMING ACROSS.

Washington gossips now tell US that
Joe Cannon has come across" and
that President-elect Taft has granted
him amnesty in return. If it is true
it represents a situation in congress
which should be lamented by the re
publican party thruout the nation. Joe
Cannon typified reaction and obstruc-
ton. not only in tariff revision but in
and in the interest of real progress he
should have been endorsed. The fact
that Taft threatened him with opposi-
ton was self-evident that the speaker
stood in the way Of the party. If Mr..
Taft has now considered 1t wise to
compromise with Cannon it means that
congress itself has been found to be
reactionary, compelling Taft to make
terms with Cannon, when he ought TO
have forced new leadership into
power. It means that republican sue
cess in the last election was too over
whelning for it's own good. The re-
dictionaries were not scared enough to
change their color. 1t means that the
possible organization of the new blood
in the next congress which might have
been a power under presidents lead
ership, has been dissapated before it
was attempted In the light of SO linn
tied information as the public has
concerning the lineup in congress it is
not for us to criticise the wisdom
of the new presidents course in COM
promising with the devil, he may have
been left no alternative. but if he
has done so. it is due cause for lamen-
tation within the republican party of
the nation.
