CATCHER GEORGE GIBSON OF THE PITTS
BURGS.
work can be seen from the feet that
he has caught practically every game
the Pirates played.
1t is the business of catcher to pre-
vent the other team from scoring He
is the major general of the club when
it is playing on the defensive. He
must work his pitchers so as to handi-
cap the base runners and when it
comes to showdown and he is forced
to throw his heaves to second must be
as true as a rifle shot. Gibson has been
in charge of that work for the Pirates
this season. and the answer is found
in the standing Of the clubs. Four
years ago Gibson was considered a
second rate catcher. but he has stuck
to the job so faithfully and has i'm
proved with such rapid strides that his
great work was instrumental in the
Pirates winning the pennant. Without
him they would be lost.

consumptive Home For Ball Tossers.
A home for veteran ball players who
fall victims to consumption to be es-
tablished in Colorado and maintained
by the club owners. or. rather, by the
patrons of two major and two minor
leagues. is the plan fathered by Bill
Everett the former Chicago National
league star. whose home is in Denver.
He hopes to see it put in effect within
short time
AS outlined by the veteran. only n
decidedly moderate sum of money
would purchase a comfortable home in
Denver or its vicinity. and a small an
nual income would maintain it, pro-
viding a superintendent. nurse when
necessary and the services Of a physi-
clan. The necessary money Everett
suggests raising by setting aside for
brief period l per cent of the gate
receipts of all games played in the Ma
tional and American leagues and the
American association and the Eastern
league.
Admission to the proposed home
would in that case be restricted to

ries Virtual Threat
S. P. Eastman Writes That San

pete With His Concern
A.
Belief Is That Injunction Will Be
Sought Under Provision
of the Constitution


A virtual threat that San Francisco
can not proceed te~ebtain Sierra or.
any other water supply for itself was
made by the Spring Valley water com
pany yesterday in letter directed to
the supervisors water rates committee.
Assistant to the President S. P. East
man forsth company stated:
We are informed and believe /"
the city and county of San Francisco will
be unable to enter into competition with
it (Spring Valley, and that the prop
critics of the Spring Valley water com
pany can not be taken or damaged
without just compensation and there
fore no share holder need view with
alarm the suggestion that the city will
proceed to construct it's own water
works"
That legal action to block the city's
purpose to construct its own water
works, by way of injunction or other
wise, is what is contemplated by the
officials of the company was made plain
by the parenthetical expression omit
ted in the above:
Under the constitution of the state
of California, under whose authority
and protection this company rests"
No such legal action has been at
tempted by the company thus far, but
the implied threat of yesterdays COM
munication was no surprise.
Other interesting statements in the
letter were the company's acknowledge
ment, I'VE accept the results of the re-
cent election as an expression of the
desire of the municipality to own its
own water supply" and the expressed
Willingness to submit the matter of sale
and price to the share holders
