One of Judae naIdwin's Stories.

l suppose that one great reason why. the republican party has been al- lowed to remain in power so long is their name. To be truly republican in ones views and sentiments is good thing. We live in republic. Naturally we like the name, republican. But name is not an inexhaustible capital
 l have heard of country fair where ones of the side shows was d tent with the sign, Talking Seals and picture of two seals facing each other in a talking attitude. Some one paid his ten cents and went in. There was tank and two seals, and the snowman was feeding them. After while the visitor observed that he was rather in a hurry and would like to hear them talk. Stranger was the reply. what are you thinking of .? Don't you know that seals can't talk :? That's just their name-tall<ing seals.
 The republicans have some tall takers. but the trouble is that the leaders of the party are not really republican-not really friends of re- publican government. That's just their epublicans." They are really tories or imperialists.-New Ha- ven Speech.

LOVE OF SPORT
 IS WHAT MAKES STARS
World Beaters in the Big Leagues Not Spurred on by Large Salaries Alone.

The question as to whether profess sional baseball players really love the game has been a much mooted one, but in spite of the many cynical views to the contrary there seem to be good reasons why they should have real fondness for the national game. A prominent sporting authority sums the matter up as follows: Love of the game must be inborn in a player to enable him to become a good one. There is no doubt that the majority of those now playing the game took it up because it appealed to them as a pastime, not from any idea of live lihood. There are a few, however but a very few, whose interest in the game is entirely sordid But in the long run it will be found that it is that kind who fall by the wayside the quickest and are lost in the shuffie. Those who survive and develop into stars of the diamond are the ones who were born ball players and love it for the game itself There are very few instances where players have taken up the sport as a profession from sordid motives who have made good. The good red blood that flows in the veins of the native American naturally inclines him to love athletic sports, and as base ball is the most prominent, he takes that up.
 T don't deny that the big salaries paid to ball players have their in- ducements and spur players on to ex- tra efforts to be able to secure the bank presidents stipends some stars are credited with being paid. College players take up the game invariably from pure love of the sport. the same as they do football. No one would accuse the youthful undergraduates who is so anxious to make the yarsi- ty eleven, of being influenced by what money he could make out of it. Nef- ther can those who, when they leave college, make baseball their tempo rary profession. The sordid idea comes when the big salary inducefnent comes from managers of professional clubs later. But love of the game starts them on their way, and it never leaves thenl- There is a fascination in play ing the game that lasts until the play CT is cast aside as has been.
 There are times, of course, when players lose interest, but those are tion, happens be playing poorly and is with a losing team But let one be in perfect physical trim, and with a winner, he forgets salary and everything else in the pure. inborn love of the game with WSich he is blessed as a true American. I have never seen an old ball player yet who. when age had dulled his athletic abil- ity and forced him out of the profess sional ranks, would not jump at a chance to play in q game just for fun at q clambake, picnic or outing. and none of those affairs take place with out game of hall being ou the list of sports. The money end of the game has it's Inducements, but the real seat of the baseball fever lies in pure love of the sport as sport"

WORKING THE BATsMAN.
Coonnbs Tells How the Twirler Cra~Is
 Out of a Bad Hole

Just to give the fans an idea how the pitcher works the batsman. saws Jack Coombs. the winner in Connie Macks pitching staff this season. I will cite a case which came LID in the 18th inning of my 24-inning victory oyer Boston. Parent was the first man to face me in this inning. With two and two he hit terrific drive over short for two bases. He was was sacrificed to third, bringing the late Chick Stahl and Myron Grimshaw. both of whom had been hitting the ball hard all day, to face me in order at the plate. I walked both of them. fiIl- ing the bases rather than give them chance to hit the ball, and to give my inneld an opportunity for a force play at the plate or double play.
 Hoey followed Grimsfaw to the plate and he never took his bat from his shoulder, being called out on strikes. I knew his weakness was my slow ball In fact he was inward 1y hoping to see me hand him up a. fast one, but he was disappointed. I wasted my curve, obtained one strike with slow one, wasted my fast one, secured another strike with a slow one and repeated with a slower slow one, sending him to the bench for drink of ice water to cool his fevered self
 Reddy Morgan was the next man at bat. Unlike Hoey he could hit my slow one mile and could also jolt my fast one, but l knew that he was weak on curves I curved the first one over. Thinking he would be looking for an- other curve-and he was-I shot fast one through the groove. Then I wasted a wide outcurv,e and also a slow one By this time Mir. Morgan was badly crossed and l saved the day by curying another strike directly across the heart of the plate Reddy looked at the same in amazement, wondering at my nerve, and walking to his position to start the 18th inning
 Even though l was cognizant Of the weak points of these two men, it was not policy for me to give them ball after ball which 1 knew they did not like. as the chances would have been dead against me, for after looking over two of the same brand they might have connected with the third. I vast ed the balls they would have hit had they come near them and then changed my line of battle to work their weak ness directly. Thus I was able to pull out of a very small hole and have the honor of winning the longest championship game iii the history of the ma for leagues

Representina Massachusetts.

If Kentucky has it's Powers, Massa chusetts has it's Curley, and if the two meet in congress they can have an interesting time comparing prison ex- periences. To be sure Powers was jailed for a crime usually classed as much more lleinous than that for which Curley was incarcerated. but Powers was pardoned on the theory that he had been unjustly convicted. while there was never any doubt of Curley's guilt. Curley. it will be remem bered, was the individual who in the kind ness of his heart impersonated at a civil service examination friend who felt uncertain of passing. Curleys friends thought the performance did him credit and gave him great re- ception when released. They have also elected him g, member of the city council and now they think they would rather have him go to congress than Congressman O'Connell. That is to say, the democrats of the Tenth dis trict have named him as their candi- date for congress with the aid and comfort of Mayor Fitzgerald and they feel confident of electing him. We think it quite likely that they will.- New Bedford Standard.
