A few weeks ago Perkins created a SEN

gine of the Pennsylvania Limited while
the train was moving.
Another feature of the aviation meet
Ing in Kansas City Will be balloon races
for altitude between the huge twin, snow
white balloons Eagle" and Condor,
balloons have a capacity of $4,000 cubic
feet, being seventy-five feet high.
There also Will be on each day of the

Mr.. Campbell, who Is a former army
officer, having only recently resigned his
commission as first lieutenant of coast
artillery. in his desire to add a distinc-
tive military feature TO the meeting,

DOlfie Gray of
Nationals Uses
"Ointment Curve

Dolly GRAY, the Nationals star
southpaw, has a new ball this year with
which to mystify the sluggers of the
American league. and it is doubtful If
even Ty Cobb and Larry Lajoie will
be able to do much against it. Dolly
has named it his ointment ball.
The ointment ball, as the name indi-
Gates, is smooth 1t is slow, approach
ing the batter with an uncertain mo-
tion caused by its absolute rigidity.
Dolly pitches it as though it were a
fast ball, but it takes its time reach"
ing the plate.
The new delivery is effective in that
it breaks suddenly with a lazy drop
either toward the batter or away from
him. as Dolly chooses. Even if the bat
ter is fortunate enough TO get under it
he can t send the ball out of the infeld,
and usually he drives a slow one on
the ground to the box to be retired
with ease at first.
Doc Gessler was the first man to face
the ointment ball, and he hurled his
bat as far as the box trying TO land
on the slow drop. Gessler agreed with
all the other players that the ointment
ball ought to be the real thing this
season.

GOOD UMPIRES SCARCE
SAYS PRESIDENT LYNCH

The ufnpiring problem Is one OF the
most troublesome that the big league
president has to contend with. Good um-
pires are scarce and every year they are
getting scarcer. so that the problem Is
getting to he a harder one to handle
every season. 1t takes diplomat to
handle STAFF of umpires so they will
do the best work, and II requires a lot
OF diplomacy on. the part OF the umpire
to handle ball players.
One great trouble with the men who
are now handling the indicator is that
they are too quick to exercise their au-
thorlty In putting players out Of the
game: There are exceptions TO that rule.
however, and they are the stars OF the
profession. ball player who does not
have spirit enough to fight when a de-
cision goes against him is not good
umpire should take that into considera-
ton.
The weakness of too many umpires is
that they VIII not allow PLAYER to make
large enough caliber to minimize the
players fault, but take It as a personal
arront II he questions the decision and
the result is that the player Is chased
to the clubhouse and the team weakened
thereby.
Henry O'Day. the National league vet
eran, who is regarded as one Of the best
men that has ever acted the part of the
umpire. Is one OF the men that has few
quarrels with the players. He seldor,
orders player out OF the game. but is
able TO handle the objectng player In
such way that he cools down quickly
and does not grow unruy. His judg-
ment is good in all points of the game.
and the players have come TO know that
when he gives a decision 1t is about as
near right as IL can. be and there is no
use making any great fuss over IT. THAI
Is an ideal state, and few Of the UNI
pires have been able to attain 10 that

NEVER FELT At
EASE IN BERLIN
Mittag Zeitung Thinks 1t Knows
Secret of Retirement of
American ambassador.
By Associa ted Press.

By Associated Press.
RFRIIN. April i5-The retirement
from the German capital OF DR.. David
tavne HiIl. whose resignation as embaS-
aador OF the United States to Germany.
u was announced yesterday. would be
come effective July /. is regretted at tn
foreign office here, where the relations
hstween the eovernmnt officials and DR..
Hill have been OF the best. IT is felt here
that Or. Hills tenure of the embassy mas
done much to further German American
friendship.
The ambassadors resignation apparent
ly did not come wholly as surprise
though no official expression of his In
teption to abandon the diplomatic ser
vice had been received at the foreign Of
flee before he left Berlin on March 10
for America, Particular attention Is called
in official circles to the fact that the re. -.
lations between Emperor William and
the American embassador are most cor
dial.
The rumors that Count Beinrich Won
Bernstorff. the German embassador at
washington, was simultaneously resign
ing which reports. ii was thought, mlght
give political significance TO DR. Hills
retirement, were promptly and emphati-
cally denied at the foreign office.
The date when Dr. Hlll's resignation
becomes effective Will enable him to par
tjcIpate In the reception which Is being
planned for the visiting American war
ships during Kiel week. and which prom
,ses TO be one of the most important dem,
onstrations Of the German American good
relations In recent years.
According to the itinerary OF the pro-
posed cruise OF the second division OF
the American fleet 10 the Baltic. the
American ships will be at Kiel from June
o2 until June so.
The wilheImshaven squadron Of the
German fleet, composing the most modern
battleships OF the German navy. Will be
at Kie from June IS until June %. but
il is possible that Il will be retained at
Kiel until June 80, in order fittingly to
welcome the visiting Americans.
The working out of a definite program
Of the reception OF the American naval
officers and sailors has been delayed by
the emperor's absence. The embassy
here has not yet received a reply to
communication sent TO his majesty with
regard IL the proposed visit of the Amer
lean naval division.
The Gerrcan newspapers are nlystif'ed
by the sudden resignation of the Amerl-
can ambassador and print an assortment
OF runlors as 10 what caused his retire
ment. Including one that Dr. Hill had
clashed with Secretary of State Knox
over the potash question,
The Mittag ZeiIung pays high tribute
10 DR.. Hill as a writer scholar and dip
lomat and says II is an open secret that
the American ambassador never felt al
ease In his Berlin post because or the In
cident which occurred at the time Of his
appointment.
The ambassador, the paper continues,
as temporary and accepted the post under
the circumstances only as an egress from
81 dIsagreeable situation between Ger
many and America.

Denver Man for
Sdlt Lake City
for Big Match

Here is something encouraging from
Otto Floto. sporting editor of the Den
yer Post. Floto thinks that the Gotch-
Hackenschmidt finish wrestling match
the hope that Promoter Harry w. Hea-
gren obtains the bout for Salt Lake City.
Floto says:
THAT the Gotch- -Hackenschmidt wrest-
ling bout scheduled for Labor day In
Chicago is attracting attention all over
the country Is best shown by the offer
or Harry Heagrcn of Salt Lake City who
has wired Jack Curiey that he will give
a purse OF 100000 for the match That Is
surely going some for Salt Lake City.
Manager Curley thinks that Heagren
is showing much gameness offering
purse of this sort but believes that the
bout will draw three times that amount
In Chicago. II Chicago SHOULD by any
chance lose IL. then the Salt Lake pro-
moters may rest assured ii will fall TO
them. Hope IL does. We need all those
big things in the west
