PLAY THAT DlSHEARTENS
: THE MAJORITY OF CLUBS
Having Men Caught OF Bases Takes
Life Out Of Team-Important
Part Of the Game. -

There is probably nothing in base.
ball that SO quickly takes the life out
Of a club as to have man or two
caught of the bases. With this fact
In view every club tries to perfect
itself in this department of the game.
To the spectator there usually appear
but two men who are directly con-
nected with the play, when in reality
the pitcher has as much, ii not more.
to do with it than any of the other
players. This Is especially true where
the catcher throws to one of the bases
to catch man mapping. The inielder
usually gives the catcher the sign
that he is going to attempt the play,
but often the backstop signals the
baseman to this effect. The pitcher is
next tipped off on what Is coming,
and, knowing what is expected, he
must pitch the ball where it will be
easy for the catcher to handle and at
the same time such distance away
from the batter that 1t Is impossible
for him to hit the ball.
~ It can readily be seen that il the
pitcher does not keep the ball out OF:
away from. the hitter what a swell
chance the man at the bat has to not
only, break up the attempted play, but
at the same time to hit through the
spot vacated by the sinhelder The In
7 fielder must start for the base as soon
gas the pitcher starts Ito deliver the
ball, and consequently this spot IL left
open. Brown, Killing and Tinker pulled
off the play on Sam Crawford in the
fourth game Of the worlds series at.
Detroit, when they picked the Tigers
slugger OF second. It was swell
play all around and, while most OF the
glory Of the play went to king and
Tinker. Brown must not be over
looked, as he made the play a-success
by the manner ,inYwhich he handed the
u ball to Killing. In that memorable IL,
inning game between the Athletics
and Detroit, Donovan, Payne and
O'Leary caught IIartsel the same way,
and but for Topsysbeing nailed. which

cording to numerous critics.
Hardly a day passes but that In
a close play some guardian of
a base is cut or sustains some
strain or breaking of a bone.
Managers now regard it as one
Of the first essentials Of a good
inf1elder that he can put the
tag on a base-runner. Many
basemen lack the requisite
nerve. Others have not the
skill. With the ball and the
runner arriving together and
the runner coming recklessly
through, throwing himself
spikes first at the bag, 1t takes
a cast.iron nerve to avoid finch

Cobb of Detroit. make capita.

they are absolutely reckless j

CURRENT COMMENT

these hundreds must look to the state
to run an institution where they may
find aid. And yet the state is not Civ
ing it.
There is nothing more pitiable than
the human cry, nothing that goes so
far into the innermost recesses of a
mans nature as the helpless, pleading,
position of young girl filled full of
desire to do greater and better things.
Still it seems that the Georgia Normal
and Industrial college must lack for
accommodations and hundreds of these
girls can go no where else and find
that which they seek here.
The wonderful record of the institu-
ton this season is one that combines
a wide scope There is tribute to the
splendid management by President
Parks, there is achievement on the
faculty as a whole, there is a world of
pathOs in the letters from the girls
who want to come here, but can't get
a place. It's up to the legislature and
if they don't act this year it will be
well to send other men there next
term.

THE QUESTION SEEMS TO BE
STILL UNSETTLED IN GEORGIA.

augusta Herald, Smiths Organ)
Out of office Ex-Governor Hoke
Smith still seems to be the target for
the press and politicians who opposed
him SO bitterly and vindictively in his
campaigns and during his two years
of office
The result of these attacks will in
evitably bring about the very thing
these bitter antagonists cry out SO
much against. The surest way to
make Hoke Smith Governor of Geor-
gia again is for his enemies to con-
tinue their present tactics.
1t is said that it was Clark Howelrs
dare when he was himself a candi-
date for Governor that determined
Hoke Smith to take up the gauntlet
and make his remarkable campaign
| throughout Georgia. The combina-
tons that defeated Hoke Smith in the
last primary, if they mean anything,
means that Hoke Smith can and will
be the next Governor of Georgia, if
he should again go before the people
and seek their verdict as to his pub
lie and political course.
Indeed it is almost certain that the
people of Georgia will resent so
strongly the present attitude of the
administration organs and politicians
that Hoke Smiths consent will be
forced to a canvass of the state on
public questions in the next primary,
and the Herald, for one, has no doubt
of the success of such a campaign in
Georgia.
Georgia is undoubtedly entitled to
la little rest from political activity.
She was entitled to it for two years at
least, as by common consent, custom
and tradition, gubernatorial contests
carried two terms with it. But in
their eagerness and desire to defeat
Hoke Smith, certain politicians and
certain element of the press of the
state broke this custom and precipi-
tated a campaign that brought about
their desired ends. They now seem
bent in continuing their political ami
mostly and forcing upon the people
another gubernatorial contest in the
next primary.
The truth of the matter doubtless
Is that Georgia politically is in a very
unsettled condition. To wrest the no.
iltlcal control of a state from the
hands of the railroads and the lobby
lists is pretty big undertaking. 1t is
contest that has engaged the atten-
ton of Kentucky, Tennessee, North
Carolina and Alabama, as well as
Georgia. This is practically the stu
alton in Georgia today This is doubt
less the reaosn for the continued
fierce fight these interests are making
ON Hoke Smith out of office Just as
it Is the best and surest way to bring
about putting Hoke Smith again in the
Governors chair to fill out the four
years to which according to the Gus
tom of the state he was originally
elected to fill
The indications point to a final
canvass of the people of Georgia to
discover whether they really mean to
actually run their own state affairs
in their own way, or to turn them
over in the future and for all time to
the railroad interests and their repre-
sentatives and lobbyists and the allied
interests.
