Ambidextrous Batters.

The latest thing In baseball Is to
develop a set Of hitters who bat equal
ly we'll from either side of the plate
Hughie Jennings and some other crit
les assert that 1t Is possible to train
young batters to do this. The result
is the utter confounding of pitchers.
Southpaws and right handlers will
then lose their distinction. When the
southpaw appears the batters will all
work right handed. and with the right
handlers pitching they will shift to the
other side.
There are several batters now who
are ambidextrous. Alan Storke hits
from either side. DOME Bush, the De-

other hand, shows an actual decrease
OF s15.93s.2s6. The decrease for the
year in the withdrawal Of distilled liq-
uors for consumption amounted to a.
,32S gallons.
The reasons are apparent. Five
states during the last fiscal year
adopted tewide prohibition. But the
great decrease does not come in prohi-
bition states Approximately IS par
cent of the combined territory of these
five states was already dry under the
various local option laws and by vir-
tue of the Indian treaties. North Caro-
lima, for instance, had fewer than 200
saloons left in the entire state when
statewide prohibition was adopted,
while in Georgia. Mississippi and Ala
bama three ourths of the counties in
these states were already dry by rea-
son of the county option laws
The largest factor in connection with
this decided falling off in federal IL
cense receipts is to be found in con-
nection with the thousands of local OBJ
ton elections held in counties, cities,
villages and townships of twenty eight
other states. During the year covered
by this report Illinois abolished more
than 1900 saloons by good majorities
in 1858 townships. Michigan added ten
dry counties to the roll, Indiana sue
cessfully demonstrated against 700 sa-
looms in the townships of that state,
Wisconsin added 100 communities to
her already large list of dry ones. Ne
braska had net dry gain of thirty
one municipalities, Oregon ousted the
saloon from twenty-one of her thirty
three counties, Colorado temperance
advocates won twenty out OF twenty
six elections, while Texas, Louisiana,
Arkansas, South Dakota, Ohio, Mime
sofa, Missouri. Delaware and others
came in for their share of dry victories
in the general and special elections
held
A conservative estimate places the
number OF saloons abolished by the To-
cal option route during this fiscal year
at 1000.
