came the proprietor. Leaving his en-
ploy, Mr.. Perkins was with A. 7. Otis
for two years as clerk, after which
in company with John Root he pur-
chased the candy business of H. G.
Ransom and conducted it under the
name Of Perkins & Root. 1t was in

factionery. He had the reputation of

EDDIE Smith Is
JEFF'S FAVORITE

Ben Lomond, May 14.-It developed
here yesterday, where the sole discus
sion centers on the selection of the
third man for the Emeryville ring. that
Eddie Smith of Oakland, is about the
only one of the California referees I'M
der consideration who will prove ac-
ceptable to this camp Berger Is known
to be particularly averse to either Jack
Welsh or Eddie Graney, which leaves
Smith practically alone in the Cali
fornia field.
Just what the objection to Jack
Welsh is based on is not known, but it
is rumored that the opposition to Ora
ney is based on personal differences
between him and Berger. The influ-
ences are working for GrRney and If
the fued between him and Berger can
be patched UP it is believed the black
smith will be selected.
1t is not yet definitely decided that
Jeffries will show in San Francisco
on May 27. An agreement in regard
to a financial understanding has not
been reached with the manager of the
club which will put on the exhibition
Jeffries did no gymnasium work to-
day and contented himself with row
on the river. 1t is probable the ten
mile morning grinds will be dispensed
with.

better baseball-better for the fieIders
and for the batters. The new Reach
creation is far more durable than the
old solid rubber center.
For years the brightest minds have
been working to solve the problem
created by occasional cracking of the
rubber centers. Despite the use of
the costiliest and most perfect Para
rubber the solid balls occasionally
broke under the terrific strain. This
would eventually burst not only the
multitude OF yarn wrappings but the
horsehide cover as we'll. Perhaps only
twenty or thirty a season--but enough
to make the Reach company seek d
superior substitute.
Exhaustive experiments proved cork
the finest Of all material and today
the new ball stands supreme against
| the slightest criticism In weight.
in size, it is absolutely as called for BY
the official rules. Its construction Is
shown in the accompanying illustra
ton.
Cork does not make the ball the
i slightest bit harder, but 1t does make
1t less yielding.
/ Another interesting fact Is the in.
creased snappy crack when the new
ball is hit. This is entirely due Il
the rigidity of the construction made
possible by the cork center.

Ball players and fans will be sur
prised as well as deeply interested to
know that remarkable change has
been made in the construction Of
standard baseballs manufactured for
the American and other important
leagues.
Instead of a solid rubber center,
which has marked the highest grade
basebalIs since the early SOS, cork with
with a corrugated Para rubber COW
ering an eighth of an inch think now
.akes it's place.
Oficials of the Reach company,
which makes more baseballs than all
other manufacturers in the country
combined, are jubilant over the success
of the cork center.
ut is the greatest triumph we have
ever achieved said Pres. A. ]. Reach.
TT means a better ball for the leagues
and a better bali for the amateurs II
will outlast the rubber center ball
many times over because 1t Is firmer
and will not break or soften in spots
under the most severe lacing.
"At a thousand dollars apiece we
could not make better ball than
the new cork center. 1t is q wonder

The change from rubber to a corl
center marks a new era in the manu-
fracture Of basebaIls. Cork makes

wrestling match between Frank Gotch
