STEALING A BASE
A REAL THRILLER
Catcher Archer of Cub Staff
Thinks No Other Play Is
Its Equal.

CHICAGO, January l-"There Is no
thrill quite so delightful as the one which
goes through you after stealing a base"
is the opinion OF Catcher Jimmy Archer,
the latest OF the Chicago Cubs back
stops. 1T is pleasant TO hit out two
Dagger. and especially agreeable when
you land on home run. but give me the
sensation OF stealing a base once in a
while"
This art Of stealing base is the most
spectacular in base bail. IT is no great
sight TO see a splendid batter like Larry
Lajoie or Tyrus Cobb strike out. There
is nothing there to send fan to his feet
with his heart In his mouth.
Neither is a well placed hit so very ex-
hilarating. OF course. everybody likes
batting and lots of 1t. but it is no impos-
ing sight. But take a we'll stolen base.
one in which the runner disappears in a
cloud of dust and whirls around the base
with one spike firmly planted I'm it to
keep him from slipping away. That brings
out all the noise that an enthusiast has
stored In him.
There is lot of base stealing during
season, but few players make 1t stand
out like a masterpiece. Everybody can
steal few during year by numbering
down the line with all sails set. for many
throw goes wild. The science. or what
might be called the essence" OF steal
ing is different. Ty Cobb has it. Chance
and Evers have it, So have IIobitzel
and Hans Wagner and Owen Bush. These
magnificent base runners are finished ar
| fists, yet each has his own individual
| style.
Take Cobb. for example. He is the rest
| less type, always in motion. lie jumps
back and forth. trying to draw the throw
| of the pitcher. lie bends low and then
| seems to spring in the air. and, finally.
! he dashes for the next base. lie Is such
| a graceful runner that il is difficult To
tell just how fast he is travelling, but his
| record Of bases stolen is eloquent enough.
i Wagner is exactly opposite in style.
He takes few motions, but rather hoNers
over the line until he IS good and ready.
Then he tears down SO fast and with
such impetus that 1t takes lot of
nerve to tag him.
Lajoie, the splendid Nap, and Manager
Chance Of the Cubs are about the same
type OF base runners. Both are built
along the same lines and give no great
indication of speed or grace. But they
both possess these two qualities In sur
prising degree and their stealing Is mag
niicent Their strong point however. is
in avoiding the man with the ball. They
have the slide which carries them out
side of the sack and around il, their
spikes clinging TO the bag. This leaves
about one foot which can be touched.
As far as grace alone is concerned. lit
tie Johnny Evers of the Cubs. one of thu,
foxiest ball players who ever drew breath.
is among the best. He is SO small that
there seems to be no friction when he
runs, and he has the speed of a human
deer. He is especially great on stealing
home on the pitchers throw. Many "A
run he has counted UP for the ex-champs
by this feature. and he is conceded to be
one of the neryiest base runners on
record.

TAYLOR Is LUCKY.
Three Boston Players Narrowly Miss
$500 Bonus.

At the beginning of the 1909 season
Owner John i. Taylor of the Boston
American League team made q UNIQUE
offer to his players. Because of a de-
sire to stimulate batting. he promised to
add $500 extra to every players salary
who hit 300 or better for the season.
Whether or not the plan was a good
one is a question, but behind the scheme
is an interesting story.
The only two men who made John /
Taylor come across with the bonus were
Third Baseman Harry Lord and Out
fielder iris Speaker. Lord managed to
roll up swat record of .311 for the year.
while Speaker fell two points below the
high water mark of the brilliant third
baseman. Jake Stahl, Catcher Bill Car
riSan and 1nfelder Gardner were the I'M
lucky members of the Red Sox
Bill Carrigan lost his $500 simply be-
cause he lacked one measly single. Bill
worked in ninety-four games. was at
bat $50 times and made eighty-three hits
for an average of .296. Had Bill re-
corded eighty-four hits for the season
his record would have been an even
300. which would have made it neces-
sary for John l. to come across.
Jake Stahl played I'm twenty-seven
games, was at bat 127 times and cracked
out rs hits, which gave Jake a record
of .2ol for the season, just six points shy
OF the mark Had Jake made three more
hits during the year his slug total would
have been just a trifie over 300.

bad simply because of another mans
Valuable Talker.

There is another feature of the catch
Ing job, aside from those already men,
toned, that the fans never hear of, which
plays prominent part in the game. 1t
is the talking Of the catcher to the bat
ter, engaging him in conversation for the
purpose of taking his mind off his main
thought, that of hitting the ball. There
are quite few catchers who never in
dulge in debate with the batter, yet there
are many who seldom let a man get
away from the plate without saying
something to him.
a youngster on his first appearance is
liable to be greeted with something like
this:
What league did you play in last
year,
F'lattered by the attention shown him
by the star catcher, he tells him the r.
and G.
Where is that league?" is, of course
the natural reply to this question. The
youngster then explains that, it's in the
wilds of Michigan, Minnesota, or some
other state.
.understand You led that league in
hlttlnS?' is very liable to be the next
one handed him. His vanity aroused,
the youngster tells that he finished sec
ond, but would have easily led the league
had he not been Ill for couple Of weeks
in August.
Suddenly the youngster is awakened
from his dream by hearing the umpire
yell: Three strikes; you're out" He
ambies back 10 the bench head down,
and when he arrives there he generally
hears bit more torrid conversation from
his manager. While youngsters are the
favorite targets for the catchers. still the
veteran is never passed up when an op-
portunity presents itself.
Good catchers are always In demand.
No field offers a brighter future for the
aspiring youngster. II good catchers were
plentiful New York would not have traded
two young players for the veteran Lou
would have secured assistants to help
out the overworked Gibson and Street
last year.
Catchers who can receive, throw and
think are able to demand and get big
money. Major league scouts are always
admonished never to overlook anv of
the prominent backstoppers.

Kelly had little or no trouble here for the
brief time he remained an umpire, and
yet the players all declared that as many
decisions got away from Kelly as any
ton. The players rarely questioned them.
and consequently both spectators and
newspa pers kept off him.
The other umpire was John II. Gaffney.
of whom it can he said, and with all due
respect to the very capable men who have
followed him, that he had very few equals
and never a superior. In a less pugna-
cious way than Kelly he impressed upon
both spectators and players that he was
master of the situation. and without arous-
ing the resentment of either. He had a
splendid voice. but even in that portion
of the grounds which it could not pene-
trate the observing spectators could tell
the decisions on balls and strikes. If il
were a ball Gaffney would indicate by his
right hand whether 1t was too high or
too low. too close or too wide. He al
ways ran to the base at which he be-
lieved the decision would come up. and il
was a fact that as a rule he was right
over the play that stalled off great deal
Of adverse criticism.
But Gaffney and Kelly were exceptional
men, and since their time there has
been big Improvement in the umpiring.
taken as a whole. although great deal
of this improvement is due to the general
adoption of the double system. In the
first place. the financial inducements are
greater-at least double if not treble what
they were when Gaff and Kelly Were in
their prime. Then, slowly but surely the
spectators are becoming better educated
in the finer points of the game, the play
ers are under sterner discipline and very
few papers make practice of roasting
the umpires. Under these conditions. il
is possible for the presidents Of the big
league to secure a high-class and relia-
BILE set of men. who must become better
with each succeeding year. Under these
conditions the presidents of the base ball
associations can demand more from the
men whom they may select as umpires.

How the Word Blunt" Broke In.

How did the word 'bunt' get into
base balI?" somebody asked Arthur Irwin.
1T came from the word pun" said
the old-time shortstop. "One day in Bos-
ton, back in 1877, I guess it was. Carroll
laid the ball down and beat il out. The
official organ said the next day: 4
wonderful thing happened in yesterday :
game In the eighth inning Carroll
punted the ball and actually beat it To
first amid shrieks of laughter
Il think / introduced the bunt In the
west / made four in one game in De-
troit, all down the third base line. Old
Jim White was playing third, and IL
was funny to see him try to pick up the
hunts and get them across: funny, be
cause Jim could handle hard-hit bal

Wadde1l Holds Place.

but by the narrowest of margins. Rube
was once one OF the greatest in the land.
To his work in 1902 and 1905 Manager
Mack Is largely indebted for his two
American League pennants. But even
the long-suffering Connie failed to put UP

he began to show signs of going back
Last season. with the Browns he failed
to do anything remarkable. and the COM
ing season will probably find him sliding
down the scale.
In his prime Waddell was a great strike

marks set by Charlie Sweeney in 1854
and Tom Ramsey N 1887. Waddell did
however, set record for seasons strike

No Soft Job.

Don't Set il into Your head for a min
Itc that the catching JOB is soft If you
happen 10 have such a belief, just don
TIE mask and protector some day and
then you Will suddenly awake from your
Iarebit dream. l have often heard peo-
pie say that the catching end of the game
was the easiest of all; that all the man In
th.st post on had 10 do was TO don a fat
glove and receive and throw the hall
much after the manner of an automaton.
The receiving ana throwing are the sim
PEST features OF the backstop's daily
routine. TO kim the pitcher looks for
the signs 10 what 10 serve, while the
i1iieiders watch him just as closely TO
discover what play he intends TO pull off
on the base runners
The catcher also comes in for a lot of
abuse that is undeserved and which really
should be handed to some one else. Well
