FEW PLAYERS QUIT GAME.
High Salaries of Today Too Tempting
For Diamond Stars.

II Is indeed queer that the ball player
of today. who gets about twice as
much in season as did the ball play
er OF a decade ago. should be always
ready to quit the game. When s2.40O
was the top price for major league
star and n youngstcr just breaking
into fast company was tickled to death
II he got 1000 a year. announcements
that So -and-s so would quit If the club
to whom he belonged did not raise his
pay were few and far between. With
the inaugural of the American league
salaries took a big boost and have
since remained at high mark, despite
the restoration OF peace among the big
leagues. Yet where ten years ago there
was one dlsgruntled player there are
twenty today. One would think that
there were millions to be made on a
poultry farm or In chasing insurance
as mere agent. About the only plny-
ers who ever did quit before they
really had to were Bill Langc Mike
Griffin and DR.. Pond. Joe Corbett and
Emmett Heidriok were really sincere
for time In remaining out OF the
game. but each was aftcrward coaxed

AN ENDOWED THEATea.

The fatal thing about the London
theater as 1t is organized today,
writes st John Hanlin. is that plays
must succeed at once. II they do not
they must be withdrawn They may
nave solid qualities which would In
tlnc cause their merits to be rccog-
nlzed which even might ultimately
justify their Inclusion In tho repertory
or tho nations dramatic literature, but
unless they can achieve an Immediate
success they must be taken off Nay,
more. unless the manager believes that
they nro practically sure to achieve
that sort OF success they can never be
put on. Plays must succeed, and must
succeed at once. or they are useless
with an endowed theater tho case Is
different Even at an endowed tboater
the fate OF n play will depend in the
end on the verdict of the public. but
hero 1t Will be on the publlcs DELHI
crate and considered judgment. not
upon Its monetary whim
THE endowed theater puts up a play
fer a few performances It is not
necessary that 1t should create an I'm
mediate furoro and f1ll the theater for
year All that is required is that II
critical public who form its carly au-
diences II they like II the piece goes
into the general reportory and is re-
vivel from time to time as that critical
approval spreads to widor circles and
the demand for further performances
makes Itself heard among the general
public This is the only way in when
tho best work ever can succeed on the
stage. Good plays. as a rule. do Dot
make an Immediate appeal to largo ana
uncrltical audiences. Good art of any
kind does not do so. Good plays. es-
pecially If they are at ell original 10
technique or In subject matter. begin
by appealing TO the critical few. II
they have any real artistic merit ana
are not merely interesting because Oh
their novelty or eccentricIty they wiz
gradually win their way With l. wide'
circle OF admirers until at last even
the general public recognizes tho"
value and clamors for admission.
