Cooley is very much stirred up over
his shabby treatment in Sioux City.
Ducky's ability to buffalo the umpires
into favoring Sioux City is well
exercising this talent. In none of
the last four games on that trip just
closed, did Topeka have anywhere
near an even break in the decisions.
A target rifle shooting the ball right
across the heart of the plate could
not have produced a strike which
Glenalvin would call unless the bat
ter swung at the ball. When Wilson
afternoon everything he threw was
a strike and the umpires were work
ing hand in hand with the Sioux City
players. The unpires seem to be
afraid of Holmes. If the reverse
were true why were they afraid to
have given Fridays second game to
Topeka, when the Sioux were making
a farce of it.

said Dick Cooley on his return from
Sioux City Sunday. For years we
have been friends, and 1 have never
done one thing to hurt him. On the
other hand 1 have helped him since
Topeka has been in the Western
league. When other managers have
refused to aid him, and have sworn
vengeance to him, I have stood by
him for old friendships sake. We
broke into the game together in the
early COS and have always pulled to-
gether. But when he pulls off the
kind of stuff he did against us at
Sioux City on our last trip, 1 am
through with him. Any time a man
will stoop SO low as to do the kind
of things he does, to win a mere ball
game, he should have no friends. If
he can bulldoze his way to a pen
nant he can have it. But he can't
retain my friendship. and I can now

The Old and the New.

When Benjamin Franklin first took
the coach from Philadelphia to New
York, he spent four days on the
journey. He tells us that as the
old driver logged along, he spent
his time knitting stockings. Two
stagecoaches and eight horses suf-
feed for all the commerce that was
carried on between Boston and New
York, and in the winter the journey
occupied a week.
When the 6rst two tons of anthra-
city coal we're brought into Philadel-
phia, in 1908, the good people of
that city, so the record states,
"tried to burn the stuff; but, at
length, Disguised, they broke it up
and MADE walk out of it," Four
teen years later, Colonel George
Shoemaker sold eight or ten wagon
loads of II in the same city, but war
rants we're soon issued for his arrest
for taking money under false pre-
lenses.
A common nail is an excellent
illustration of the difference between
the old and the new. Formerly the
metal was cut into strips and then
forged into shape with hammers,
and an expert took about one and
one-half minutes for each nail. To-
day they are made of steel and are
lighter and stronger. Strips are
cut with steam shears and fed
into automatic nail machines. One
man tends three machines. each
machine dropping a nail every Sec
ond. He turns out UNDERGROUND
keg of nails in less than two hours,
work that would have formerly
taken twice as many weeks.
When, in 1858, MATHEW Vassar
was considering the ounding of Vas
sar College, he asked the advice of
VIM. Chambers, the great philan-
thropist and publisher, of Edinburgh,
who tried to dissuade him from his
purpose. He urged him rather to
apply the money to the founding of
a school for the deaf and DUMP, or
for the feeble minded. assuring him
that his design for the higher educa-
tion of woman was absurd and
visionary to the last degree, and
could but end in failure.
