 It is history In baseball that few men who have trouble with their throwing arm ever regain proper use of that valuable member. Tn the phraseology of the game, the trouble Is known as a glass arm" and 10 a ball player, glass arm" generally spells the end of his career on the dia- mond.
 Take the old pitcher, George cuppy. He had trouble with his wing and tried all the famous specialists in vain Finally he made trip to Youngstown and consulted "Bonesetter'' Reese That eminent bone and muscle expert gave Mir Cuppy's arm several twists and enabled him to secure a major league job and work another year. int the cure was only temporary. The arm finally became so weak that ths least effort to throw would result in CuppyS arm becoming practically life

Tho Barons themselves were forced to laugh at the spectacle they present. ed Thursday afternoon when all blew up together It was a Iudicrous situ- alton, and no mistake. First, Bowen falls down in going after one. Then Kane fires one to second base after the runner had already reached the bag. and the ball goes a mile wide. The funniest thing of all was that Molly grabbed hot one and got a runner In chase between third and the plate Raftis made wild heave and the rum. ner tailed. This one fatal period was the only time during the game that the Barons did not show class.--Birm- inghaun Ledger.

Easy For southpaw..

It begins to appear that Moley.s boys will present an easy mark this season against side-wheelers. Moles- worth. McGillivray, Raftis and Hen iins are all ieft-handed. and they are the heaviest hitters on the club With these men down and out before side wheelers. 1t is hard to see where the .Barons can hope to, do much. Raftis bats right handed against left-handed pitchers, but he is not the same bat ter on the right-hand side as he Is on the left. Henline appears to be able to at least hit the bali somewhere, and Moiey can do a little. McGi1lvray ap- pears helpless against the side-wheei- trs.-Birminghain Ledger.

Poor Charley Fritz.


 Same old seventy-sixl
 Inability Of the Peiicans to hit be- hind Charle Fritz Kept one of the leagues best pitchers in the back ground all last season.
 The same old gag Is starting early this season. We hate to lose Charlie but as good as he is, it looks like the hard luck lame has things doped out so that he can't get away within any thing here. If he doesn't have better luck this year than he did last, he won't be of much use to ta ae Pels. even though he may hold opponents hitless.
 Four hits in i've innings Is far above the average of the Birds clout- ing behind Charles Frits: They used to make about two in nine innings. That year 1t usually took them couple of games to make four hits when youthful Chsrles was on the mound.
 There's a sign of improvement there at any rate.
 If Fritz felt nonplussed at having the Birds make only four behind him. how did Hess feel. Hess went four Innings and not a single bingle did the Brides land on while he was performing.

Demont Badly Scared.

New Orleans TtmeS-Democrat.
 Gene Demont, one of Charlie Franks latest additions to his Pelican flock. Is slowly recovering from a big scare, and if you will notice, he is wearing the smile that is erasure-proof these days. It was thusly:
 Several days ago he received letter from his wife from Birmingham tell Ing him that the bank In which he had all the savings of his long baseball ca- reer, had failed. Gene felt pretty blue about it. but was game, and said that there was more where the other came from and that he would now have to start all over again.
 Imagine his surprise and happiness when he got a second letter saying that the bank and his money was all right. It seems that Mrs de Montreville went down to the bank one day and saw a sign, ''Closed," on the door. She irn- mediately thought that the bank had failed, when instead 1t had merely closed one day to complete a consoli- dation with another bank. which makes 1t stronger than ever.

coming eXpositions where machinery is
shown and the products of manufacture
ing industries. AS farmer fairs they are
not what they once were. Our own New
York State Fair is the big breeders fair
and the sportsman's fair; not town fair
in the State but this year has had on its
grounds better carriage horse and bet
ter horses of utility than did our State
fair
What he says of the premiums at a
little fair in Western New York may
prove valuable as suggestion:
For some years it has been the policy
of this fair to offer S25, SIS and $40 pri-
yes to the school district in the town of
Gorham that would show the best lot of
horses, the number to be not less than
five nor to exceed ten. These premiums
alone have had wonderful effect in
stimulating the rearing of better farm
teams. The prize money goes to the
school district treasury. Better horses
are being raised, and this means a lot.
Good farm teams mean better tillage OF
the soil, which means better crops and
more money. Last, but not least, it
means a greater interest in the rural
schools of that township. l commend
this to every local fair in the country.
Think it over, readers.
In this connection another suggestion
comes to mind Would it not be well in
future fairs, where it is possible, to in
crease the premiums on stock? 1t in
wolves considerable expense to bring a
herd Of any size to fair, and if it re-
ceives all the premiums that could rea-
sonably be expected there must necessa-
rily be a considerable loss in time and
money to the owner True, if he raises
stock for sale the advertising he gets
may offset this, in part at least; but lar
ger premiums would no doubt increase
the number and value of such exhibits
and add to the interest and educational
advantages of the fair.
