JOE M'GiNN1TY, THE ONE
TINE INVINCIBLE.

There have been any number of
so-called Iron men" in baseball,
but Joe McGinnity is the best
known of them all. McGinnity had
habit of pitching double-headers
and winning them in a manner that
made it look easy.
1t now appears that McGinnity's
day as an effective pitcher is over.
The old-time star is part owner of
the Newark club in the Eastern
league, and the going hasn't been
easy for him for some time, but an
accident to his pitching arm several
days ago probably has put him out
of the game for good. OF course,
the Newark fans are worried, be-
cause McGinnity was one of the
clubs mainstays in the box.
McGinnity made his greatest rec
ord as a member of the New York
Giants in 1908, when they won the
pennant in the National league and
then toyed with the Athletics. cop
ping the title of worlds champions.
In this season McGinnity pitched 46
games, and his percentage of vic

vantages of the different styles of play more
equal.
Eight years later the English National Lawn
Tennis association was formed. Ever since then
IL has been the governing body for England and
the surrounding countries, in which the game
has since spread. The courts of all countries
have the same dimensions. The following is the
official description OF the American court: The
court Is rs feet long and 81 feet wide. It Is d
vided across the middle by a net, the ends of
which are attached to two posts, standing three
feet outside Of the court either side. The
height of the net Is three feet six inches at the
post and three feet I'm the middle half way be.
tween the side lines and parallel with them is
drawn the court line dividing the space on each
side OF the net into two equal parts, the right
and left courts On each side of the net at a
distance Of 81 feet from It drawn the service
lines. Two kinds OF game are played singles"
and doubles" two partners each side. The
choice OF sides OF the court and the right to
serve first decided by the toss Of a coin The
players stand on opposite sides of the net, the
player who first delivers the ball being called the
server and the other the striker-out. At the end
OF the first game the striker-out becomes the
server. and so on alternately. The server deliv.
ers the ball, or service, from the right to the
left courts It must drop between the service
line, half court line and side line OF the court
diagonally opposite TO that which is being
served
The system of scoring is framed on a basis
of 10 for each strobe won; but the third stroke
is called 40 instead Of 40. II both players win
three strokes. the score is called deuce" instead
of forty all" The winner of the next stroke

lowing stroke, he wins the game. II the stroke

deuce" Similarly the player who first scores
six games wins the set, unless both should have
five. when player must win two consecu-
tive games to the set If he fails to do this
the score is onco more called games ALL" and
the same conditions prevail at every set. The
players change sides at the end of every set.

Professional Eaters

Many striking customs OF their past are still
preserved by the Indians of the northwest and
Of these none is more interesting than peculiar
practise yet followed by the Sioux of the Devils
Lake reservation.
II appears on competent authority. that from
time immemorial these Sioux have adhered to
an etiquette whereby II is the bounden duty OF
the host to supply his guest with all the food he
may desire, and a rule the apportionment set
before the visiting Indian is in excess OF the ca.
pacity Of a single man.
On the other hand. by the same custom, the
guest is obliged to cat all that is placed before
him, else he grossly insults his entertainer. Now,
IL was found that this practise would work a
hardship, but instead of dispensing with the Gus.
tom the Indian method OF reasoning was applied
and what is known as the professional eater was
brought TO the front
While the guest is supposed TO eat all that is
placed before him. II serves the same purpose
II his nelghbor assists in devourng the bounti-
ful repast, the main object being to have the
plate clean when the meal shall be finished
II Is not always practicable TO depend upon
n neighbor at table to assist in getting away with
a large dinner and in order to insure the final
consumption Of the allotted portion visiting Indi
ans call upon these professional eaters, whose
duty II is TO sit beside them through a meal and
eat what the guest eats.
The professional eaters are never looked upon
in the light of guests but more as travelling COM
panions with particular duty TO perform.
These eaters receive from 81 to 81 and even
SO for each meal where they assist It is stated
that one of the professional eaters was known
to have disposed of seven pounds OF beef
at sittlng-New York Herald.
