Louis Drucke. known in Texas as
1.-THE pride of the Brazos." now a sue
cessful pitcher for the New York Ma
tionals, was college student one year
ago. In three months he accomplished
the step from college baseball to Serv-
ice in the major league. his minor
league experience being brief, but long
enough for Manager McGraw to recog-
nize the lads unusual ability.
Drucke graduated from Texas Chris
tan university Of Waco in June Of last
year and Immediately Joined the Dal-
pitched twice a week and lost only
two or three games. He was consid-
cred the best pitcher in the Texas
league despite his lack of experience
in professional baseball and that was
an honor. considering the fact that
several twirlers from that league were
corralled by major league scouts last
fall
McGraw closed a deal for the pur-
chase of Drucke last July, or. rather.
bought the youngsters release for S.
600. But Drucke's experience with
McGraw dates back to the spring of
1908, when the Giants made their first
trip to Texas for training purposes.
The Giants that season won some
thing like thirty-four exhibition games
in the Lone Star State. They were
beaten only once. and Drucke. then a
green college pitcher, turned the trick.

Sam Merriam Presents Arguments
for Building i'm Park.

Will we, or will We not have Ii
brary? The chances seem very
much against it. Why? Because
of the horror of some few about
placing it in the park. What a
travesty to call the little four by
nine trainagle Of pig weeds and sand
| a park. l refer to the tail Of the
park, the talked of library site.
Now, l have passed this particular
| spot three times daily for the past
| three years and have never yet seen
human being on it, either sitting,
standing or lying, and cannot see
why any one should want it to be
barren as the street beside it. A
ten thousand dollar library placed
on this particular spot would i'm
prove the park and surroundings
one hundred per cent and for that
matter anything would be an i'm
provement. If not a library site,
put a hen yard. pig house or any
thing to hide the place. l am a lit
tie rabid, perhaps, but the cry
against the library on the little
beauty spot makes me tired. 1t
would take a wide stretch of mag
nation to call it beauty spot where
people would delight to pass the
| hours. On the other hand, a library
there, with books and reading where
once could obtain a book and step
out into a we'll kept park, small or
large, and pass few delightful
hours reading, then one might in
deed remember it as a beauty spot.
At my old home in the East, a city
| of thirty thousand, stands the vine
clad library at the corner of the
park. Fir fifty years it has stood
there, beloved by every man, woman
and child in that city. They use
both the park and the library. 1t
is building that never cost over
$4,000, but ample for the city of
thirty thousand. A 10000 library
rightly planned will hold great
many volumes-all this city will
ever need. Let us have it, and have
it in the park, the spot and place
for it, and the only spot; as for parks
wait a few years, wait for the trolley
| ley line, then you will have parks
| parks to the right of us, parks to
the left of us-on to a legion of
| parks to the front of us-all for five
cents, and the ride to them thrown
in and something to see when you
go there.

Ty Cobb on Port Siders.

Cobb declares that left handed bat
tiers can solve the sharp breaking
curve thrown by left handed pitchers
a curve that is too much for most OF
them-by crowding into the plate. STEP
ping forward on the ball and spearing
it before it breaks. This. be says. is a
comparatively easy thing with only a
little practice. Most left handed bat
tiers, Ty says. have grown accustomed
to imagining themselves buffaloed by
the port side pitchers and fall feebly
from afar when that curve comes over
By crowding boldly inward they can
get busy with the ball and will soon
find themselves making all kinds of
hits off the delivery that has so long
confooZled them.

Bride Learns How to Hitch Up.

A certain young lady who has
many friends in, this city was mar
ried to a fine young rancher some
time during this summer. Never
having lived on farm before,
she has learned something new al
most every day.
Several days ago her husband
was in town and had expected to
walk home in case he failed to catch
a ride with a neighbOr. But the
enthusiastic young house wife
the ught she would surprise her
spouse by driving into town and
meeting him. Then she was con-
fronted with a problem. She had
never hitched up a horse in her life
and now she was compelled to har-
ness a team. With a painful effort
the task was finally completed and
she was soon out on the road. While
driving along she met rancher
who bowed courtcously lifted his
hat and then said, Madam, are you
aware that your horses collars are
upside down." With his assistance
the error was rectified and the hus-
band swears that he has the smart
est wife in the county.

Representative Butler Ames. who re-
Gently announced his candidacy to sue
coed Senator Henry Cabot Lodge Of
Massachusetts. is serving his fourth
term as a member Of the lower house
of congress.
In his announcement he says that he
offers himself as a candidate, "having
tried in vain to induce some one else
to lead the fight against Boss Lodge
| and his political machine" Contin-
uing, Mr.. Ames says of the senator:
with all his gifts and opportunities
he has made such use of them that his
continuance in public life depends not
upon his service to the people of his
state. but to a political machine. This
| machine is used as club for the in
dividual of Independent thought and
action, while it serves as willing tool
to those of wealth or influence and
power seeking undue favOrs."
Congressman AmeS is a native of
Massachusetts, thirty-nine years old,
and Is a grandson of the late Benjamin
F. Butler. He has won distinction in
the varied fields of politics, warfare,
engineering and as an inventor. A
couple of years ago he tried his wings
as an aviator. but apparently with no
great success. He was educated at
West Point but resigned on graduation
to take an engineering course at the
Massachusetts Institute of Technology.
On the outbreak of the Spanish war
he enlisted and took part in the inva-
sion of Porto Rico. For his services
there he was promoted to the rank of

AN ILLUMINATING REPORT.

Some time since Senator Bristow
of Kansas and Cummins of Iowa had
occasion to discuss the Payne-Aldrich
tariff bill in its relation to the steel
industry and over-capitalization.
They pointed out how properties
whose physical value amounted to
between S50,000,OO0 and $S0,000,-
600 were taken over by the trust and
capitalized at over billion of dol
lars by reason of high protection and
a monopolization of the ore deposit
fields. They were justifying their
insurgency.
Now comes the Social Service COM
mission which has been investigating
labor conditions in the steel indus
try in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania, with
an exhaustive report. A brief sum-
mary has been prepared by Charles
Stelzle. a member of the commission,
who says:
The committee reports that just
before the strike, 4,725 men, or Is
per cent of all employees, worked u
hours a day; 22O workmen had -
orally with a halliday on Saturday;
when their hours were either 10 or
IL: 4,2O3 employees had a workday
of 10 II TO IL hours in length, gen.
orally with a halliday on Saturday;
and AZ worked on other schedules
not specified. Beyond, and intensi-
flying, the evils of a 12-hour day was
the existence in many departments
of a 7-day week. Twenty-eight per
cent of all employees worked regular
ly seven days in the week, but in adj
dition were those who worked on
Sundays regularly as overtime. The
total number working on seven days
in a week, both regular and as over
time, during last January, was 4,041,
or 43 per cent. The situation with
regard to Sunday work in Bethlehem
is worse than that found in the Pitts
burg steel mills, as discovered by the
Pittsburg survey The committee
asserts that while it is claimed by
the management that Sunday and
overtime work is, in some depart
ments at least, optional with the men
it is nevertheless true that foremen
and gang-bosses have compelled men
to work on Sunday against their pro-
test upon pain of discharge. 1t was
a case of this kind which precipitated
the strike
with regard to wages, the COM
mittee declares that 81 per cent of
the 9,1S4 employed earned less than
Is cents an hour, or S2.16 for a 12-
hour day; and 31.9 per cent earned
less than IA cents an hour, or less
than S1.6S for a 12-hour day. The
committee declares this is wage
scale that leaves no option to the
common laborer but the boarding
boss method of living with many men
to the room. When a man has a fam
lily with him they take in dodgers, or
even the woman goes to work 1t is
reported that immigrant parents send
their little children back to the old
country to be reared while the mo-
Their goes to work."
1t is such men as Bristow, and
Cummins and Poindexter whom the
ring politicians who dominated the
state republican convention at Taco
ma would run the steam roller over
