LAJOIE NiITRAL HITTER.

Better r':au Tyrus Cobb.

With the La Cobb batting feud

League outside the battle for the pen

paw of the Athie les, and ranked as
one of the shrewI lest students of bats
men in the league, analyses the
style of batting of the two players, and
gives first honors to Lajoie Without
qualification Plank declares that the
Cleveland second baseman is the
harder man to pitch to of the pair
with the idea of outguessing him.
This is the manner in which Plank
compares the two: "Lajoie hits any
thing, inside, outside, high or low,
over the plate, and it is almost i'm
possible to pitch and fool him Stick

NEW YORK LETTER.

Stray Topics From Little Old New
York, Which Have Interested the
Reading Public More or Less Re-
Gently.
New York August 19.--The prac-
tice of tarring and feathering objec-
tionable persons, at one time a favor
lite pastime and popular amusement in
all sections of the United States, has
lost a great deal of its popularity. 1t
has practically fallen into disuse in
widest and wooliest sections of the
West and South it has survived to
some extent. The recent revival Of
this form of lynching in the State Of
New Jersey does not speak well for
the progress of civilization in the
rural sections of that State. A mar
ried man, who was accused of paying
too marked attention to a young wi
dow in his neighborhood was treated
to coat of tar and feathers by a
gang of young rustics who call them
selves the Terrible Ten" The report
does not state whether the self-con-
stituted guardians of rural virtue
were unsuccessful aspirants for the
favor of the young widow, but ii
quite likely, as she is said to be the
owner of a fine farm. 1t is fortunate
thing for great many men in New
York and other cities that the tar.
ring and feathering sport is no long
er practiced in well regulated, civil
lied communities. The prices of tai
and feathers would surely rise to q
] tremendous height

A Piece of Folly.
The president of Western Lumber
Company who has evidently more
money than good sense, engaged
private car the other day at an ex-
pense of $4,000 10 take his wife's pet
dog from New York 10 San francisco.
Under the rules of tne railroad the
cur would have had to travel in the
baggage car and to save the dog from
the discomfort and humiliation of
long trip in the baggage car, the own
er of the precious beast engaged
special Pullman car for the trip.
What do | care for $4,000 when the
comfort of this little beauty is con-
cerned?" remarked the lumberman
when he was informed that he would
have to pay $4,000 for the private car.
1t would be interesting to know what
the probably underpaid employees of
the dog-crazy gentleman think of his
eXtravagant act.
Too Busy to Marry.
The police authorities are search
ing for young man who claims to be
too busy to marry the girl from whom
he had Borrowed" her entire savings
after he. had become engager to her.
When the girl asked for warrant
against her ex-fiance, she stated that
the young man left the city some
weeks before the day of the proposed
marriage and did not return. He sent
postal saying he was too busy to be
married and a week later sent another
with the laconic message: "Still busy,
Yours, Izzy."

A Fish Tale.

Since the beginning of the fishing
season quite a number of choice fish
stories have found room in the col
umns of the daily papers, but even the
best of them were amateurish COM
pared with the story which was sent
in by a correspondent at Niagara
Falls. According to that yarn stur-
geon, weighing $50 pounds, leaped in
to motor boat cruising two miles
above the Falls, and in thrashing
about with its tail injured two of the
occupants of the boat and disabled
the engine so that the boat helplessly
drifted toward the Falls. 1t would
have gone over the Falls. had not
some men in another motor boat
heard the cries for help and come to
the assistance of the disabled craft,
The originator OF that story deserves
star position on the staff of New
York's yellowest daily.

Can't Fool Him.
4 never try to outguess Lajoie, for
admit that l have nothing with
which 1 can fool him. l simply take
my chance, and confess that he is my
superior. The easiest time to pitch to
the big fellow is when there are men
on the bases. He does not hit then as
he does when the pillows are empty.
1.-TWO years ago in Cleveland | was
trying to waste ball. He hit it lick
with his bat and knocked it over the
roof of building out of the grounds.
l pushed him one in the last series
with the Maps inside and down around
his knees. He bounced it to left field.
That's the reason | pitch to Larry
and hope for luck. You can't outguess
him.
with Ty Cobb it is different, al
though Ty can hit anything that is
thrown to him. However, he is not
so hard for me to pitch to; perhaps
because he is lefthand batter and
Lajoie a right. You can iool the Geor-
gian where you cannot the French
man. When | am pitching against
Detroit / take chance with Cobb and
sometimes / can outguess him, al
though 1 admit his ability as a bats
man.
Cobb Waits for EN-,
"The reason for this Is plain. You
must pitch to Cobb He will not
reach out and hit waste ball o,.t of
the lot like Lajoie. He waits for you
to hand it to him where he thinks he
can hit it. and unless he gets it there
he is not so formidable.
Cobb, with his great sprinting hb-
ility, beats out hunts and infield hits.
That's why you have to figure him all
the time Larry is the slugger pure
and simple.
"Now, il LaJoie were as rasr as CoDb
and laid down bunts, the gasoline go
cart would be used by Lajoie in 1911.
No one could touch him in the Amer
lean League, For good clean hitting he
is in class by himself, and when ne
gets one, 1t is one on which a boy
could get to first, second third or
home. He is the real batter in the
league, the hard man to pitch to and
a clean hitter.

Not Afraid of Burglars.

|
If there were more women like Mrs.
| Frances Morgan of Brooklyn, many
burglars would abandon their profess
sion as too risky. The other night she
was awakened by noise in her room.
When she opened her eyes she saw a
burglar ransacking the drawers of
screamed, but not so with Mrs Nor
gan Stealthily she left her bed. grasp
ed a convenient hickory cudgel and
with it fiercely attacked the burglar
who was not prepared for such a
turn of things. He tried to escape, but
Mrs. Morgan followed in close pur-
suit, although only in her night gown.
The burglar reached the street, while
| the irate lady continued to beat him
over the head and shoulders with the
heavy stick. When the burglar saw a
policeman, he ran to him for protec-
ton and begged him to arrest the
woman with the stick. When the
woman explained the situation, the
burglar was taken to the station and
locked up.
Took Possession of Church.
The Jersey mosquito crop has been
unusually plentiful this year and
what this means only those who are
familiar with the unlimited capacity
of New Jersey in turning out mons
trous crops of mosquitoes of every
known variety, carefully appreciate.
1t seems that this year a much small
| er brand of these pests predominates,
which makes up in fierceness what it
lacks in size. Mosquito nets afford no
protection this year, as the mosquitoes
are so small they can crawl through
the meshes. In South Orange the Sum
day services had to be discontinued
for the season because the mosquitoes,
in spite of the screens on doors and
windows, had taken possession of the
church and seriously interfered with
the devotions of the congregation.
An Absurd Situation.
/ A man suffering from an attack OF
heart disease was refused admission
to hospital three times the other day
because the doctors considered him in
so serious condition that they were
afraid he would die in the hospital.
The attitude of the doctors is so alb
surd that it would fit into farce COM
edy were it not of so serious a nature.
Heretofore the general public has
been under the impression that hos
pitfalls were intended for care of sick
persons, irrespective of the serious
ness of their condition, but it seems
that this was an erroneous idea.
Judging from the attitude of the doc
tors it would seem that hospitals are
no place for sick persons. Only such
persons are received who can furnish
written guarantee that they will not
endanger the reputation of the hos
pital by dying within its walls.
