When Hyde Park Became Public

From the London Chronicle.
1t was in the reign of Charles l that
Hyde Park was first thrown open to the
public, and in those days it was not only
the scene of frequent horse races, but
also still fulfilled its original function OF
royal hunting ground. When the park
was sold in 1852 there were still deer re-
manning in 1t, and even after the restora-
ton it was occasionally the scene of a
royal hunting party. Hyde Park was for
long time LondOn's most famous duel
ing ground. There in 1912 the fight be-
tween the Duke Of Hamilton and Lord
Mohun ended in the death of both COM
.batants. and there Charles James Fox
met Mr.. Adam and John Wilkes fought

FIRST BASEMEN TO HAVE
PROTECTION THIS SEASON

Fred Lake. manager of the Boston
Nationals, has utilized his spare mo-
ments during the winter in inventing
little ankle and foot pad for the pro-
lection Of first basemen. 1t is design
ed to prevent the spikes of careless
base runners from biting into the first
sackers left foot as 1t rests on the bag
and to keep the spikes from ripping
up the first baseman's leg or ankle
when the runner is sliding into IA bag
on a close play.
Lake has contrived glove" to be
worn on the foot. 1t is fastened on
win strap worn under the sole of
the players foot after the fashion of
suaps attached on skits. The protec-
toh Is afforded by a piece of pliable
ielt which extends from the toe of the
shoe half way up the calf of the leg.
IL Is designed to be fastened about the
leg with clip similar to the pants
guards used by the cyclist.
Many young first basemen do not
make good in the major leagues be-
cause they are afraid To keep their
ioot on the bag" said Fred Lake. "The
s'sht Of one of these players with a
reputation for reckless and daring
''se-ruhnlng, tearing pellmell into a
Dag Is enough to discomfort many
"aruy player, much less a rocky, and
Consequently the numerous dropped
