Addie Joss, baseball pitcher par
excellence in the summer time and
sporting editor In the Off sea-. on.
is OF the opinion that the day of
successful high BAH pitching Is a
thing of the past.
There was a time" says Joss,
when it was the accepted theory
that one OF the requisites or the
first class pitchers was ability to
keep the bali around the batter's
neck.
"That is true when the man at
bat is trying to pull off the hit and
run play. Formerly, when the
twirIers kept their fast ball high,
1t was pie for the batter to either
step back or I'm. as the occasion
required, and push or pull the ball
in the direction he wished it to go.
With the low ball it is different. as
the batter cannot gauge the ball
any too well. and finds IL Is a
difficult matter to place IL.
ut is particularly hard for the
batter TO follow the ball on a dark
day, as was shown in the second
game OF the worlds series between
New York and the Athletics on
the Polo Ground. Chief Bender,
who was on the mound for Con-
ME Mack's men, is a pitcher who,
when right, has a tremendous
amount of speed. The Athletics
managed to score a few runs for
Bender early in the game, and
with this lead there was no chance
for the Giants TO catch up.
Bender had the advantage of
the gathering gloom. and this, cou-
pied with his ability to keep his
fast ball low, proved a stumbling
block for the aggressive Giants.
Members OF both teams say the
big fellow was unhittable on ac-
count OF this, which goes to show
how much harder 1t IL to lift the
low ball than the high one"

TWO FILM BUILDERS, ONE READYETO SNAP FROM COW
CATCHER, THE OTHER ERECTING A PASTEBOARD
SAN FRANCISCO.
SAN FRANCISCO.

Moving picture houses are
showing pictures Of the San Fran.
cisco earthquake. Here you can
see how they do it. Here's a NOV
ing picture standing still.
F. A. Dobson, the man in over
alls, who looms up like a great
destroyer in the picture, is now
building up the city which is to
be shaken down. He is an artist
in pasteboard.
When he is ready he will step
aside, then-click-one picture
Then he'll joggle the city a lit
tie and the machine will begin
click-clicking like a telegraph in
strument. After a while he'll
start fires in the background, and
buildings will be licked up, and
manikin firemen and soldiers will
be dashing through his mimic
streets, and disorder and panic and
terror will have been canned and
ready for the nickel theater.
Dobson's work illustrates one
of the most remarkable industries
of the last five years-the moving
picture business-which last year
exhibited to a billion of people
films enough to reach end to end
three times round the world.
Elaborate stage settings are
placed for the pantomime drama
and the actors carefully rehearsed
They can talk about rents and the
servant problem and shovel hats
if they want to, as long as they
look like pain and grief and wild
joy and surprise as the noiseless
drama dictates.
The world Is ransacked for
scenes, and no great event escapes
the moving picture photographer
Real lions are killed in African
settings, regiments maneuver and
fight and die, balloon ascensions
and coronations and runaways and
dastardly murders are executed

ON FRIENDLY FOOTING,
Ambassador O'Brien, at San Fran

States,

SAN FRANCISCO, Cal, July 49,.
The relations between Japan and the
United States were never on more
friendly footing than now, according
to Thomas J. O'Brien, American am
bassadOr to Japan, who arrived from
the Orient today ON three months
vacation.
Il cannot say that l can see any
likelihood of the relations becoming
strained" said Ambassador O'Brien.
There is nothing that l know of in
the present or immediate future that
would bring about change in the
friendly attitude of each country
toward the other.
VIRTUALLY all treaties with Jap
an expire in 1911, but there is
some question whether those with
this country terminate until 1912.
They have not been talked of except
in private way by the Japanese
foreign office officials. At present
the treaties are purely political, but
the japanese would like to see sever
al commercial clauses inserted when
they are renewed. This, however,
has not been discussed except, as
say, in private way by the Japan
esq.,"

TO PRESIDENT TAFT
Wants Him to Allow States to Vote
on Amendment for Popular
Election of Senators.

LINCOLN, Neb., July 13.-Wil-

ter to President Taft, asking him to
allow the people to vote on popular
election of senators. Mr Bryan
says:
ITO President Taft: Now that the
states are going to vote on the rati-
fication af the amendment specifical-
ly authorizing an income tax, why
not gve them chance to vote on an
amendment providing for the cleo
tion of United States senators by
popular vote? In your speech of ac-
ceptance you said that you were per-
sonally inclined to favor such
change in the constitution. Would
not this be an opportune time to
present this subject to congress?
1.-TWO constitutional amendments,
one authorizing an income tax and
the other providing for the popular
election of senators, would make
your administration memorable and
important, and l pledge you what
ever assistance | can render in secur-
ing the ratification of these amend
ments. With great respect | am,
yours truly,
"W. ]. BRYAN"
