WAGNER'S PRESS AGENT BUSY
Pittsbure's Star shortstop Announces
His Retirement From Baseball.

His Retirement From Baseball.
Almost every baseball fan in the
country knows that Honus Wagner Of
the Pittsburg Nationals is interested,
with two Of his brothers, in a circus
which is to take the road this spring.
One Of the first things Honus and his
brothers did was to engage a real live
press agent, and the latter has started
in. Here's his first contribution:
John Honus Wagner, king Of batters
and king of shortstops. will play no more
baseball: The kings edict was issued
in the form Of an interview in which
the famous player sets forth his in
tention to retire permanently from
the diamond and devote his remaining
years to peaceful pursuits. Selling au
tomobiles and conducting the circus he
and his brothers will soon place on the
road will take up Wagner's time in the
future, he says.
When Wagner was seen at his home
in Carnegie and asked If the rumor
concerning his retirement was correct
he said:
eyes, sir. shall not again play
baseball" and the big shortstop en-
phasized his assertion with the air
Of one driving tenpenny nail through
each word to make it stick good and
hard.
But your contract-the fans are un-
der the impression that you are tied
up tight with the Pittsburg team for
1902" faltered the reporter.
"Yes, I know, but as to a contract
that was outside talk. / never said I
signed one. Mr. Dreyfuss has not sent
me any contract for this year. I'm a
has been. I am just beginning to find
that out. I used to be able to play
some. but, tell you. I'm has been.
Besides that, I can make more money
out Of the automobile business than l
can out of baseball.
''Then there's the circus that my
brothers and myself are going to put
on the road this year. All the time I
can spare from the circus enterprise
shall devote to selling machines.
Now, where is baseball coming in,
even If had not decided to leave the
gamer"

FOUND FREAK APPLE
McLeIand Company Came
Across "Phenom" in Bar
rel of BaIdWins.
A DIFFERENCE IN COLOR

After years of experience during
which time they have, handled thous-
ands and thousands of apples. McLe-
land Company. local commission mer-
chants, have discovered a real freak
The apple which is of the Baldwin
variety is freakish only in color of the
skin as in taste and shape it is like
all Baldwin apples. Nature in this
case colored one third of the apple a
bright vermillion red and the other
two thirds the ordinary color. or a
mixture Of bright red and yellow
The red part of the apple is divided
from the remainder by straight lines
and the colors do not run together.

news that the once great champion

his return to the little square arena.
Phil Brock, a fresh hard hitting
lad. fell before the science and brainy

But. no. Corbett wasn't knocked

FORMER Champion to Try His Skill
Against Freddie Welsh Feb. 20.
Young Corbett, the former feather
weight cha mpion, is making a desper-
ate effort to "come back" and regain
the lost prestige that followed his de-
feat by Jimmy Britt in 1904. The
little Denverite's recent achievements
in the roped arena have won him COM
mendation among the ring contingent
from coast to coast, and the popular
little glove wielder is praised generally
for his plucky attempt to regain his
lost laurels.

new HOCKEY LEAGUE
Chicago, Pittsburg, st. Louis and
Cleveland In New Circuit.
BASEBALL LAWS TO GOVERN.
Promoters Of New Organization For
Ice Sport to Follow Diamond Resu-
Istions ~ to Reserve and Waivers Of
Players.
BY TOMMY CLARK.

II the present plans Of the promot-
ers do not fall through professional ice
hockey will receive quite a boom in
this country next winter. Recently in
Chicago a new ice hockey league was
formed. which is composed of three
teams in Chicago and one each in st.
Louis. Pittsburg and Cleveland and
backed largely by baseball magnates,
and will be governed by baseball laws
in regard to players.
A strong effort will be made to put
the hockey league on practically the
Players will be forced to sign con-
tracts and respect waivers and reserve
clauses the same as under the national
agreement. The promoters feel that
by doing this they can in a measure
keep their teams intact throughout the
season. and that is important. as a
great deal Of the success Of a hockey
team depends upon its team work.
A representative OF the men who
are interested in the forming of such
an organization has made a tour of in
spection to the various cities in this
country in which the game is sup
ported and in Canada, and his report
has been favorable.
1t appears that this representative
devoted great deal Of his time to
solving the problem which has men
aced the Western Pennsylvania Hook
ey league throughout the present sea-
son-viz. the binding Of the players.
He has reached the conclusion that
the only way to overcome the contract
Jumpers and "holdup" men is to draft
rules much along the same lines that
govern baseball and make the hockey
players recognize drafts. waivers, pur-
chases, etc. just as the bali tossers
have to.
The men who are interested in the
founding Of this new professional
hockey league are very optimistic as
to its success. They fully believe that
the enthusiasm OF the followers Of the
game can be aroused in the cities
mentioned to such an extent that
goodly profits would be made above
expenses. President Charles A. Comis-
key Of the Chicago American league
baseball club has been mentioned as
one Of the promoters Of the new
league. Comiskey has had a lot Of ex-
perience In the rink game. having been
interested In the game In st. Paul
when he was running the baseball
team there.
