very far be it from me to deprecate fu-
ture discovery, scientific, philosophical
or religious. Far be it from me to re-
gard with apathy the progress OF hui
7nanity which it is the destiny Of
such discovery to lead. What ! appre-
hended and would, If I had the power,
assist in arresting is the social anarchy
which was brought on by an atheistic
revolution France and might be brought
on again by the sudden collapse of all
religion without anything to replace it..

the inspiration of the bible. from any
ecclesiastical belief or any religious
dogma, g supreme power appears to

Enphatically l repeat that there is
no thought in my mind OF limiting free

WALTER JOHNSON
HAS LONG Arms
SPEED OF WASHINGTON PITCHER
MAKES HIM MAN TO BE FEAR
ED BY ALL BIG LEAGUE
BATSMEN

Ever since Walter Johnson broke
into fast company opposing players
have marveled at his great speed.
With an easy motion Johnson seems
able to send the sphere through space
at such terrific pace that even
though the batsmen knows that the
ball will come on a straight course he
is unable To meet 1t with his stick.
Johnson gets his speed by reason
of his wonderful reach. He has longer
arms than any other pitcher i'm the
country, and pitches with the least
effort.
When his arms are stretched out
they measure TN inches from finger
tips to finger tips. This is ~ inches
longer than Jeffries' reach and 5A in
ches longer than Jack Johnson's.
When he releases a ball after hav-
ing wound up this long right arm II
goes through space with the speed
of bullet.
Fed, indeed, are the pitchers who
can score strlkeout after strikeout
without resorting to the use of curves
or spit balls, as does Johnson. He has
frequently struck out three men on
nine pitched balls without ever using
IL curve.
II is Johnson's speed that makes
him one OF the most marvellous pitch
ers the game has ever produced, and
IL Is his great long arm that gives him
his speed.
Not since the days of Amos Rusie,
the famous pitcher of the New York
Giants, in the early nineties. has the
game produced IA pitcher with the
speed of Johnson. Until Johnson made
his appearance i'm fast company no
pitcher had ever been seen i'm the big
circuit who had anything like the
speed Rusie possessed.
For year or so there was some
much speed as Rusie, but the players
who remember Rusie' and have seen
Johnson in action are unanimous in
the opinion that the Idaho wonder
has more on his ball, to use a baseball
phrase. than Rusie ever had.
Unlike Johnson, Rusie had n very
short arm, and he relied more upon
n fast-breaking curve than he did on
his speed. What is more. Rusie work
ed with an effort. 1t was n strain for
him to pitch game, and it was this
that ended his career rather suddenly.
johnson, on the other hand works
with ease. He never seems to be let
ting himself out to the utmost. His
arm works like well oiled piece of
machinery, and even for the uninitiat-
ed he looms up as one of the most nat
ural slabmen that the game has ever
produced.
