Before Sam Kennedy could get to The
Maryland town all OF the players had
left the team and gone elsewhere. and
as he had other tips to follow up he

so later all three of these men were

In the past scouts have not been

such happens to be the youngsters weak
ness, woe unto him, for in very few
days every pitcher in the league will be
aware Of the fact, and every one will
make it special point to serve him
nothing but the very kind of ball that
troubles him most.
A year ago last fall the Cleveland club
secured Wilbur Goode from the Akron
team of the Ohio and Pennsylvania
League. Goode jumped into the game
just at the time the Maps were battling
his experience had been limited, GOode
played excellent ball for the Maps. MAX
ing his best showing at the bat All
pitchers looked alike to him, and he won
many game for the Cleveland club by
his remarkable ability to hit the ball.
No player on the Cleveland club helped
more to make the Maps near pennant WIN
ners than Goode.
During the winter months many nice
things were said about Goode and gen.
eral opinion was that the Cleveland club
had picked up a youngster who was
sure to shine as big Lacquer. For some
time after GoOde joined the Cleveland
club In 1908 he hit the ball we'll over the
300 mark. but a slump late in the sea-
son brought his mark down to about
$50 Last year Goode In ninety-four
games hit only slightly over the 200
mark. He failed to show the form that

management did not hesitate to trade
him to Philadelphia last fall.
Just what caused the sensation Of one
season to fail to live up to the reputa-
ton he had established is something of
a mystery, for Goode is only youngster.
Goodies great prowess with the 5 lex
caused all the twirlers to pitch their best
to rim when he stepped to the plate.
Perhaps some pitcher found out that
Goode had a vital weakness, his dis
covery was soon communicated to other
twirlers on the circuit, and as result

It's also just as possible that i'll health

WORK OF SCOUTS"
NOW ALL IMPORTANT
Base Ball Attache, Unknown
in Past, Has Become a Me-
cessity to the Game.
(By William G.. Weart.)

No part of the great system of develop
ing a base ball team has grown faster
in the past few years than that of the
scout. The hiring of such an attache of
the club Is no longer luxury: it is a
necessity.
There have been scouts like Ted Sulli-
van for many years. but they We're few
in number, and might be said to be ''un-
attached Ted Sullivan, one of the keen
est judges of young ball players In the
country, for many years did not work
for any one club. On the contrary, he
distributed his tips to many clubs.
In the good old days., when the Chi
cago White Stockings won pennants with
great regularity, 1t was said that the
teams success was due to the fact that
the club had scouts everywhere. The
reason for this was that the Chicago club
was owned by A. G. Spalding, the manu-
agents in every large city. 1t was de-
clared that these agents were instructed
to keep their eyes open for budding base
ball talent and to tip off the White Stock
ings. In this way. 1t is said. the Chi
cago club got many youngsters who de-
veloped into stars
It is only within recent years, though
that scouting has become a business. 1t
is usually taken up by some former ball
players, although some men who never
had any experience outside the minor
leagues have made far better scouts than
others who have played on teams which
have won championships in the major
leagues.
There are many things about the bust
ness that prevent all old players from
being successful at it, 1t requiring sort
of instinct. or sixth sense, to enable a
man to tell almost at a glance whether
the young player has the proper requisites
to some day be major league star.

A mistake made In a bulletin sent out
by Secretary Farrell OF the National As
ISOLATION of Minor League Clubs is caus-
ing trouble in the Three League This
bulletin announces the release OF twelve
players purchased by the Danvflle Ull. J
club from the Decatur team, whereas 1t
should have read that the players have
been reserved. AS a consequence several
players have signed with other clubs.
Manager Roger Bresnahan of the ST.
Louis Cardinals and Manager John ].
McGraw of the Giants have been closeted
a great deal of the time for the past
two days. 1t is said that three-cornered
deal is anticipated. involving trades
among New York, ST. Louis and Cincin-
natl. McGraw's object. it is believed. is
20 secure First Baseman Edward Konet-
chy of the Cardinals.
Good southpaws seem to be rarer than
ever this year. Many managers have lost
their confidence in the ability of the left
handlers. One of the greatest faults is
that so few Of them field their positions.

Quick Action Required.

A scout has to have his wits about him
all the time, and his judgment while fire.
quently Of the snapshot variety, is put to
severe test. In the first place, if he
studies a player too long. he may find
that some rival has slipped in ahead of
him. "a delayed telegram prevented the
Ptttsburg club from getting Honus Wag-
ner and his being secured by Louisville.)
In the second place. if he reports a
player as not up to the standard, and this
youth is snatched up by some other club,
and develops into a top notcher his en-
ployer naturally loses faith in his ability.
Frank Baker of the Athletics is said to
have been reported upon adversely by a
man who looked him over at Reading for
the Phillies. Then again the scout must
not pick up too many youngsters who fail
to make good for II he does his value to
a club diminishes accordingly.
Good scouts" are scarce. but the man
who can make good year after year
finds that he is coveted by other clubs
just as much as star player. For in
stance a few weeks ago the Cleveland
club signed Sam Kennedy. who has
been successful as scout" for the
Athletics. to a two-year contract. 1t
was the success of the young players
credited to Kennedy's ability as a
scout that caused the Cleveland man
agement to land Sam.
Connie Mack the other day announced
that he had signed AL Maui, the former
heavy hitting pitcher. to a contract. In
the past scouts" were merely hired,
and 1T Is a new wrinkle in the national
game to have them sign up for one or
two years.
OF course, friendships count much in
the work of scout" Perhaps no man
gets more tips on young players. espe-
cially collegians, than Manager Mack.
On this account Connie has had two
scouts" employed regularly during the
past two or more years, one to make
long trips and the other for emergency
duty, SO to speak. as, If he is not quite
sure from one scouts report. he will
send the other to look the player over.
Travels Quietly.
scout" usually travels around
quietly. and he is more careful to keep
his name out of the sporting column
than to get it in. Too much publicity
Is likely to spoil his plans.
Scouts have some queer experiences
in travelling around and in deciding
what player to look up first
One Of the great bunch of tips on rec
ord came to the Athletics few years
ago A follower of the club wrote In
that he had seen a game In a small
Maryland town a few days before and
that there were three men on one team
that he was sure would make good in
the major leagues. The men he named

The ideas of foreigners regarding
the size and characteristics Of this
country do not seem to grow less
amusing with age, and the state
ment that in London there are peo-
pie who think New York is city
Of Indians is not so farfetched as
some consider it.
The writer met at Long Branch
last summer and Englishwoman,
and a cultured Englishwoman at
that, who had gone there directly
after landing from a steamer in
New York. Having casually men,
toned that was born in Brooklyn,
she remarked that she had met
some people named Henderson who
lived on Long Island and wondered
if 1 knew them. I asked in what
part Of Long Island they lived, and
she naively answered, "Oh, down
near the business section!"
A young Englishman whose cous-
in is in the grain business in this
city came over to see his relative
and also to see something of the
country. One Of the first places
suggested to him was Niagara falls,
and at train time the Englishman
presented himself minus overcoat
and hand bag.
"Where's your grip::' asked his
cousin.
"Why, can't we run over and see
the falls and get back tonight"
he asked.
On being assured that he could
not he began asking questions re-
garding distances and ended with,
''How big is this state?"
When he was told that it was
bigger than the whole Of England
there were no fitting words to OK
press his wonderment.
Another young Englishman came
10 New York during a very warm
Indian summer. He spent week
there and then went on to Canada,
returning to New York in March
to embark for England.
He was asked the inevitable qucs-
ton, GLOW do YOU like America ~
His answer was: ''It's IL nawsty
country. Arr the year you arc
roasted, and the other art you are
up to your waist in snow"
A New Yorker went TO Brazil
last year to put in few months Oh
one Of the cattle ranges. One day
a young Irishman rode into camp
to see the New Yorker, saying that
he had ridden forty miles to do so
as he wished to inquire Of him as to
the health Of his brother, who left
Ireland ten years before and was
settled in New York city. There
was no question in his mind bu

Jules verne's Romance.

The story Of Jules Vcrnc's court
ship and marriage is most roman
tic one. Verne was shy young fel-
low who had a great dislike to the
society of women, and it was only
his affection for his brother which
led him to 60 to the latter's we'd
ding. Verne, however, arrived too
late and found that the whole bridal
party had left for the church with
the exception OF the brides sister,
a charming young widow, who eX-
planned the matter. The friendship
thus accidentally begun rapidly de-
veloped into a warmer feeling and
ended in marriage which may be
described as ideal.
