Wagners Of the future.
Seymour was a left handed pitcher,
and if anyone ever made the ball talk
81 was the man.. He lacked control,
on account of the smalneSs of his
hands, and that was the cause of his
giving up pitching McGraw was the
first to appreciate Seymour's ability a
fielder and batter and he was put
in center field on the Baltimore league.
81 was one of the southpaw tWirlers
who were considered so cratic in their
ways on and off the ball field as to be
in class by themselves -Dupee' Show
and Rube WaddeIl are specimens of the
left hand freaks and they are not yet
all dead yet
A Speedy Runner.
Arlie Latham in his big daye~ as a
ball player was one of the speediest
The Giants chief coach was not only
a daring, dashing base runner, but he
was sprinter who did not fear to
tackle any Of the professional runners
hundred yards in 10 Is waH Lath-
ans march, but he could negotiate the
distance in 10 flat if he was pushed too
hard. Latham could beat any player in
the American association when he was
a member of the St. Louis Browns. I'M
miskey, and he sought other fields to
conquer.
Billy Sunday. the famous evange-
list. was member Of AnsOn's Chicago
White Stockings at the time, and he
had the reputation of being the fast
est runner in the National league.
Latham was anxious to run a race with
his rival Of the National organization.
and match was arranged to take
place during one Of the series for the
worlds championship, both the Browns
and White Stockings having won the
penrants of their respective league.
Billy Sundays Racing.
Sunday was built on racing lines. He
was National runner. He did not have
to be educated on the subject Latham
was shorter and stouter than Sunday,
but as game as a pebble, and he knew
more about the sprinting game than
did his rival
The race attracted lots Of attention,
for the question of running supremacy
between the players had been long in
doubt and much talked about and ad-
vertised. The players of both teams
with the execution Of Sunday bet all
the money they could rake and scrape
together on the result of the race Sun
dny never would gamble. but he told
his friends that he thought he would
win.
The-z was considerable jockeyEne
on the part of Latham at the post. but
Sunday was not fooled into any false
starts. The race was a beauty and won
by SUNDAY in an evelash finish that was

The chances are we will never hear

Sam LangfOrd stand forth in all their

Each of these men has added % his

Kaufman has shouldered Australian

The way LangfOrd went for jeanette

fooled valuable time away in another

In this instance ne was impeled by
double motive. He had to work out OF
the fog in which his recent fiascO with
Kaufman left him. and he had to
squelch both Jeanette and Johnson at
one fell-swoop. He did nobly.
LangfOrd Is Fit
Langford is in a good position now

Two EOxers Unafraid
As to why I think Langford is not
afraid of Kaufman when all other
things are equal. The pair were matched
to box in San Francisco las June and
there was no question at that time as

JOhnsOns camp a Seal Rock, and Lang

(By Sam Crane, Sporting Writer New
York JaurneD.
New York, Sept 19.-With the drop
ping of ST Seymour by the New York
club. the curtain is down for 81 as d
big league player. There are only a
few players left now who were active
when Seymour first entered the pro-
fessional ranks as a member Of the
Albany club. 81 developed into star
pitcher in the New York State league,
and was finally landed by the Giants
on the recommendation of Larry Fas-
sett, now living in New York city, but
who was once the owner of the Albany
club
OF the players who were in the Ma
tional league when Seymour became a
Giant, there are only Fred Clarke.
Tommy Leach and Willie Keller left
who are now playing in the same
league. McGraw was in harness then
and in active service as a player, but
Of the big army of players in the parent
organization who were then prominent
before the baseball public only three
are left and this doubtless will be
Keeler's last season as a player Leach
and Clarke may go along another year
or two but that will be about their
limit
Ball Players Career.
It is said that the average length
OF a ball players career on the dia-
mond is four years. OF course many
have lasted much longer and Seymour
was one. And he could have continued
with the Giants much longer had he
considered it necessary to train a lit
tie during the winter months. Any
kind OF exercise would have been pref
cradle to the lethargy of Seymour's
winters. The consequence of his lazi-
ness was that he gained flesh rapidly
and as he got farther and farther along
IN years he was unable to work off the
extra weight during spring trainings
and he was therefore of little value to
the club until hot weather set in.
This season Seymour's feet and legs
went back on him and he showed up
fearfully so much so that in these days
of speed boys" ST was shown up more
or less His hitting was strong, how
ever, and that was the only thing that
appeared to McGraw, and continued ST
on the Giants pay roll as long as he
was. But 81 is not all in. He showed
we'll with the Baltimore club
But it is Seymour's retirement from
big league baseball that is so sugges-
tive of the Shortness of a ball PLAYERS
career. and which makes the necessity
of securing the country like a fine tooth
comb in the score for new players to
make up the loss Of those who fall out
OF the ranks as Seymour has. by rea-
son Of age. or from other causes.

Scouts have not missed any part of
the country no matter how remote in
their search and doubtless many Of

Making Sure Of tho Architect.

NQrman-Al-Ooua an Arabian king
who reigned long. long ago at Hirah.
commanded the architect Sennemar ia
build him Il wondrous palace. This
the architect did and when it was
done a single stone fastened the whole
structure, and the colors of the walls
changed frequently during the day.
The king was greatly pleased and
showered all kinds of rich gifts upon
the builder with the lavishness Of orr
entail kings. But monarchs were
treacherous in those old days. and it
occurred to the king that Sennemar
might build a palace equal in beauty
or even superior for some rival ruler.
The more he thought over it the more
Jealous he became until one day he
ordered the architect to be thrown
from the top of the palace to make
certain that no duplicate palace would
be made. After this the king was sat
isfed that his palace was the only
one. and the Arabians regarded it as
one of the wonders of the world.

Shot BY Unknown Assassin.

BUTTE, Dec. 27.-Two young men
Wee possibly fatally shot on the Ana-
condo road shortly after midnight
Saturd ay under most peculiar circum.
stances. They were Dennis Lynch and
Tim Murphy, and are both lying in
St. } ames hospital in u critical con-
dition. The men were walking up the
Anaconda road when an unknown
man walked up behind them. Sud.
denly a shot rang out and Lynch fell,
shot in the back. Murphy leaned over
him to help him when a shot struck
him in the arm and coursed through
his body. The man then ran over the
hill and disappeared from view
