TUBERCULOSIS IN PRISONS
Continued from page /

the congregate mode of prison life is
considered, the danger OF infection be-

lation. New York and Massachusetts
are the only states where any systematic
attempt has been made to transfer all
tuberculosis prisoners to one central

losis hospital is in Manila, where accom-

The next largest is Clinton Prison
hospital in New York, which provides
for $50.
The fact that 100000 prisoners are

IF the managers of the major league
clubs are as lucky in unearthing star
youngsters next season as they have
full. Reports from the scouts of the
big league clubs say that promising
material is very scarce in the minor
circuits. Out of the f1fty-seven young
sters left after the wedding out proc
ess last spring more than half will be
kept for next season. Among the
youngsters who have made great
names for themselves in the American
league this season are Russell Ford of
Lapp of Philadelphia In the National
league there are King Cole of Chica-
go, Jake Daubert of Brooklyn and Vim
cent Campbell of Pittsburg. Although
there were many others discovered,
these are the shining lights. Ford is
considered to be the greatest pitcher
developed in the American league in
two years. Chicago experts are Of the
opinion that King Cole will be the lead
ing pitcher of the National league next
season. Lapp is considered to be one

is now classed among the leading first

BATTERS COMPLAIN OF
USE OF BEAN BALL"
Players Say Pitchers Try to Hit
Them.

Baseball players all over the country
have been making a howl this year
against the bean ball" used by pitch
erS to frighten batters. Batters say the
pitchers are deliberately trying to hit
them. 1t certainly does look like it,
judging from the number of batters
who have been hit this year.
Several players have been killed and
number badly hurt by being struck
with supposedly wild heaves. There
are many cases on record in baseball
where star players were compelled to
retire from the game for good on ac-
count of being dangerously injured by
pitched balls.
Addie Joss, the famous Cleveland
BALI on dangerous batters in order to
scare them, and he charges other twirl-
ers with doing the same trick.
Next time you attend a league game
watch a pitcher when he is in a tight
hole and a good hitter up. It's good
bet the twirler Will peg one at the bat

him. Often batters charge pitchers
with Intentionally hitting them. It's
to get busy and do something to check

batter there probably would be a de-
eided decrease in the "hit by pitched
ball' department of tabulated score.

this fall under the reform code, de-
scanting learnedly or otherwise on
subject on which it is pretty much
guesswork with all of them, there is
one plan the rules committee could or
der which would be sure to help spec

referee announce through a megaphone
what penalties are for when inflicted
has been suggested. If the referee is
too busy, then let the field judge, line
man or somebody with a good voice do
it.
The penalties to which teams are liza
Bile in football are manifold. and nine
times out of ten the spectators don't
know what particular breach of the
rules has incurred penalty. Generally
they put 1t down to holding or offside
and let it go at that. 1t might be one
of several dozen offenses. An an
nouncement of the offense and the ma
ture of the penalty would clear up
doubt and educate the spectators. and
that the big majority of football pa
irons need education in the fine points

HOW TO HANDLE
A RACER.
Kind Treatment Always Favored
by Ed Ceers and Tod sloane

Ed Geers, the veteran reinsman.
whose achievements IN the sulkv this
year have been of the sensational order
says that horses are like children and
should be governed accordingly. "Nev-
er treat a horse roughly IL you want
him to do things he is capable of do
Ing, Geers says. Govern him kindly.
and the results of this patient treat
ment win frequently be surprising"
In his training Geers exercises the
greatest patience and never has been
known to treat one of his equine
charges roughly. Few trainers exercise
such perseverance in this regard as
does the driver who has twice landed a
Chamber of Commerce stake and a
Merchants and Manufacturers stake
the same year. His treatment of kind
ness continues after the trained animal
is sent out to race. He never deviates
from the course OF kindness with which
he starts when horse is placed in his
charge.
In regard to the kind treatment OF
horses and the results achieved there
from Geers is not unlike the former
great jockey, Tod Sloane Those who
were associated with Sloane during the
| time he was considered the premier
rider of the country contend that he
never was known to abuse horse, nor
| did he ever have any patience with any
person who did.
| Sloane had the reputation of getting
more out Of a horse than any other
knight Of the pigskin. He did not bring
about these results by means Of the
whip or spur 1t was kindness alone
| that won the day for Sloane with frac-
| tious horses. He further contended
that If he had had the early training
of these animals they never would have
developed their savage dispositions.
Sloane nursed his mounts along In
their races through a line of kindly con-
versation, which he was ever indulging
| in. Geers is just such another horse
man. He talks to his horses as he
drives along and never resorts to the
whip until 1t is absolutely necessary to
do SO, and then in no brutal fashion.
The horses under the pilotage of
Geers and Sloane appear to understand
the meaning of the whip more than do
those animals which are indiscrimi-
nately dashed by brutal and clumsy
jockeys and drivers.
II The Geers and Sloane treatment seems
best all around, especially in the light
of the victories achieved by the pair
on horses that did not accomplish any
thing in winning way under the guild
ance of others.

CANA is AFTER BIG GAME.
Victory Over Roller Has Started In.
dian Wrestler on Warpath.

Now that Cana, the Indian wrestler,
has defeated DR.. B. F. Roller, the
American grappler. and John Lemm,

engagements with other mat artists.
Cana Is g. big fellow, weighing 21o
pounds. yet no larger than some of the
fellows whom he had challenged in
vain. He is eighteen inches around the
neck, forty-eight inches in the chest
when in repose and twenty-seven inches
at the thigh.
Among the propositions that had been
made by Gama's manager, but without
acceptance, was one to throw Zybsco
three times in thirty minutes for $1,000
a side, to throw Hackenschmidt in
twenty minutes for $500 a side or to
throw each of any two wrestlers in
England once within an hour or forfeit

Pitcher Is at Fault, SAYS McGraw

Nationals says bases are not stolen on

best throw in the world cannot stop
him." says McGraw. "Of course the
catchers make bad throws occasional
ly, but they would make very few If
