innocence is established. In Eng
land. as In America, the INNOCENCE OF
the accused is presumed until his or

criminals escape the punishment due

reason FOR this is found in the Eng

law. When an Englishman goes on a
Jury and hears testimony that proves
TO him beyond a reasonable doubt that
the man on trial has committed an Of

The story of Jesus is the story OF

second was in knowledge of the prin-
ciplcs Of the Kingdom and the ability
to declare them so plainly that none

was in power over diseases of COM

Is the time magnates should encour-
age their managers, and not contin-
ually take their cues from the erratic
fans and the critic without training
for the business.
There is no class OF people that
thrive on encouragement equal to the
baseball man, let him be player or
manager, and the one time he needs
encouragement most Is when the cards
are breaking poorly and he is contln-
pally forced to call every hand.
Hardy had the Boston American
started the season before rumors We're
that Manager Pat Donovan was to be
be released. These rumors were hatch
ed far from Boston, but the fan, always
apprehensive, took considerable stock
in the story and made it unpleasant
for Donovan, who had not fairly be-
come acquainted with his position and
was wholly unfair to the club, who
had not dreamed Of making a change.
Stories of the kind are sure to annoy
the players and interfere with their
playing.
Any manager with the proper train
ing who it attending strictly to bust
ness should always be allowed to flll
out his contract, his suggestions should
be taken seriously and everything
possible be done to help and not handi-
cap his best efforts.

BOOST MANAGERS;
DON'T Use HAMMER

Baseball furnishes a. great object
lesson each year, and perhaps the
most interesting one Of the season so
far is the position now held by the
st. Louis Americans. Two years ago
Jimmie McAleer had a team in the
race up to the very last week. In
getting the team together the veteran
player had made some fine trades, and
his team was the real sensation. Even
this showing failed to please the st.
Louis critics, and McAleer was abused
for not winning the championship, and
this uncalled for daily abuse not only
annoyed thhe modest McAleer, but it
fairly disguised the player.
John O'Connor, a native son, veteran
and a fine all-around man in the
game, was prevailed upon to take the
place. He seemed to be the choice of
the st. Louis critics in preference to
McAleer He took the position to try
and build up team out of a few dis
satisfied ball players and a bunch of
ordinary youngsters-no mean task,
even with the loyal support Of the st.
louis press.
Had McAleer received credit for what
he really did. the chances are that
he would have remained in st. Louis.
and brought the team into a fine po-
sition. AS the case now stands, O'Con-
nor will soon be riddlsd with hot shot
from the critics and fans; President
Bob Hedges viii realize that he did
McAleer injustice to weaken on his
faithful manager to please the trouble
makers. while Jimmie McAleer will
make new friends at Washington, and
in time. develop winning ball team.
And the while Jack O'Connor. bright
baseball man, will have trouble to
hold his Job, through no fault OF his.
The best managers amount to very
little In the long run unless backed
|up by the club owners, even at a
time when public criticism IS aimed
at the man in charge. In fact. this

New York, June 4.--StanIey Ketchel
the jugilist, got knockout blow and
then took to his heels this morning
at 430 o'clock, when his $4,000 auto
mobiles caught fire at Mosholu park

ED WALSH HAS FOUR
DIFFERENT SPITTEDS.

Many a spit" ball pitcher is
content when he has just one
style of delivering the moist
slant, but not so with Ed Walsh
of the White Sox, who is consid-
cred the best spit" ball pitcher
of them all. Ed pleads guilty to
having four distinct methods of
pitching the vapor. ball. Three of
them are thrown overland, while
one is on the order of raise ball,
being delivered underhand. The
last carries a jump with it, while
the other three produce fade
away, a drop and a curve. Inas-
much as Cleveland has but few
left handlers, Cleveland fans have
not had many chances to see the
great pitcher use his fade away.
