THE SPITBALL.
Il Takes Great Strength and Speed to
Pitch IL Properly,


Describing the spitball in baseball
and the way it is pitched. Hugh S.
Fullerton in the American Magazine
says:
'"There came into baseball in 1908 a
ball which came near revolutionizing
the game and brought new era Of
pitching, made great pitchers out Of
: has beens' and poor hitters out Of once
mighty sluggers.
'"The ball is pitched with two, some.
times with three, fingers held on one
side of the ball and with the thumb or
tip Of the thumb and nail being grip
ped hard against the seam at the
opposite side Of the sphere. The top of
the ball is made slippery at the point
Of contact with the fingers, so that the
sphere slides off the fingers with the
minimum of friction, while the thumb,
pressed hard against the seam, gives
the maximum of friction, the result
being that the ball. leaving the hand,
takes heavy English from the thumb
and starts revolving rapidly in the d.
rection opposite to that in which it
naturally would rotate. Therefore 1t
whirls rapidly for short distance un-
til the natural but suspended motion
of the ball overcomes the false Eng
lish' applied by the thumb and a con-
test between the natural and unnatural
forces ensues The ball ceases revolv-
ing unnaturally and floats and wabbles
until the natural twist overcomes the
false one, and then the ball darts just
as it would have done If it had been
curved naturally, shooting in the direc-
ton in which the heaviest friction was
applied. A spitball If pitched direct
~ overland darts almost straight
downward, and if pitched side arm
with the thumb toward the body it
shoots outward and down as q fast
outcurve does, the quicness and speed
of the break depending entirely upon
the amount of force with which it
h thrown and in ratio to the amount
Of friction applied by the thumb or
lack of friction by the fingers. Great
strength and speed are essential to Tia
best pitching Of this kind of ball."

EXPLOSION OF GASOLINE
RESULTS FATALLY TO ONE

Edward Edmundson, who was in the
room with Andahl at the time of the
explosion, was also seriously burned
but it is not expected that his injuries
will prove fatal.
Andahl has been a resident of Bow
don for a number of years and is re
puted to be worth between $4,000
and 100000. He has two brothers liv.
living in Minnesota and sister who
has been keeping house for him is now
visiting in the same state.
Edmundson. it is understood, is a
resident of Mandan, where he has
relatives living.

TRIANGULAR LEAGUE DEBATE.

Three weeks more and the much
heralded debate between our leading
universities will take place. Thus
far all the debates at Fisk have been
very hopeful and indicative of our
usual success. The selection of
teams has been made within recent
date. Messrs. ]. e. Ellison, 10, J. E.
Stamps, II, c. H. Payne, IL, and r.
N. Arthurton, II, are our representa-
tives chosen to go to Howard Univer-
sity, at Washington, D. c., while
Messrs. ]. Dawson, c. Wesley, G. w.
Roman and w. L. lines remain at
Fisk to defend against Atlanta Uni
versity, our ancient rival. 1t is not
the purpose of the affair to form such
evidence as comes from hard, persist
ent study on the part of the boys.
We can say that any loss on our part
will not be due to lack of prepared
ness.
The selection of judges is not YET
made for the Fisk-Atlanta debate
but within week all arrangements
will have been completed on thai
point Owing to the extreme care
! that must be observed in doing this
we have of necessity had to delay.

WILL BET A MILLION ON JACK
JOHNSON.

Should Jack Johnson, The present
champion heavyweight, lose MS tltle
to James ]. Jeffries July 4 next, when
thew meet in their forty-five round
battle for the worlds championship
it will mean a loss of at least $zoo'
600 to 100000 to the colored railway
emploves of the United States. This
is a conservative estimate, and the
chances are that the loss to them IN
case Johnson loses will be still great
er. There are $500 colored porters
employed by the Pullman Company
and at a low estimate there are over
10000 colored men employed on the
parlor cars, dining cars and as COOKS
on the various railroads, making fully
100000 in all. 1t is pretty safe pre-
diction that practically every one OF
them will have bet down on the Dig
fight, for colored porters and walters
are natural born gamblers" and 1t
will be a poor kind of porter or wait
err who will not back up the colored
champion. Figuring on the basis
that every one of these men bets from
9lU 10 9lOJ II DlluSo IhC COI"l w W
about 100000, which is very conseVa-
tive, for many of them will bet up
into the hundreds, and the chances
are that the total amount bet by the
porters and walters will be nearer
100000 than $30O,OOO That will be
quite bunch of money for the col
ored boys to lose, and it is a cinch
they will be pulling hard for "Mistah
jack to come home with the bacon
If he does not then the men tray'
elers might as well prepare them
selves to advance the "tips" after July
until the porters and walters re
coup their losses. Aside from wha
these colored men will wager Nigh
be added what the colored population
in general will bet, and there ar,
many colored sports who will bet VI
into the thousands, and it is safe t.
estimate that close to 100000 will b
wagered this way making in all clos
. to $1,000, 900 900. AS a rule the Co
ored men expect to place their bet
| at even money, and many bets alread
( have been made on that basis.-CH
