TY COBB WANTS PHOTOS.
Thinks They Would Prove That He
Plays Clean Game.

Ty Cobb wants photographers 10
catch" him sliding into base To
convince the baseball public that he
does not go into a bag with intention
cf spiking the fielder.
Recently the Philadelphia fans want
ed to mob Cobb because they believed
he was trying to spike Third Baseman
Frank Baker. Year before last Cobb
accidentally put skin bruise on Bak-
ers arm. and big row followed. At
that time a newspaper photographer
VISA at third and snapped Cobb as he
slid into the bag. The photograph was
used by Cobb To vindicate himself. and
it showed plainly that the Detroit star
was trying To avoid the awkward Baker
when going into the bag.
Cobb recalled the previous incident
with Baker and explained i'm a public
letter, printed i'm Philadelphia, that if
he could have the use of number of
photographers ne would soon illustrate
to tine Philadelphia fans that he goes
into a bag legally Cobb recalled that
the picture Of the other incident refut-
ed all charges made against him at
that time. Photographs do not lie,
neither do theyt elaborate.

DETROIT WILL
retain TIGERS
BAN JOHNSON SAYS THERE is
NO TRUTH TO RUMOR TEAM
WILL BE SHIFTED TO
ST. LOUIS.

Chicago, June 27.-On his return
from the northern woods President b.
g. Johnson of the American League
branded as false the report that the
Detroit Tigers were To be transferred
to st. Louis and that an American as
the major circuit as result of the
poor baseball patronage in the city OF
the Straits.
There are no grounds for such "A
report" the head of the American
league said. "tor such a change could
not be made without violating the
peace agreement. | understand that
President Hedges of the st. Louis club,
is in Chicago but | have not seen him
and as far as | know he is not here
on any American league business
There is a rumor however, that the
Browns magnate is in the city for a
conference with President Johnson i'm
the hope of devising some means of
strengthening his tail-end team. The
Browns have made a poor showing this
season and with the rival St Louis
club pushing the pace makers I'm the
National league. the patronage at the
Hedges park has fallen off considera-
bly,.
Reports from St Louis care to the
effect that President Hedges is out
with an emphatic denial of the rumor
that the Detroit club is to be trans
ferred to 81. Louis. He said deal of
that kind Is not being considered.
The report that the Detroit club
is to be transferred to St Louis is the
biggest joke | ever heard of i'm base
ball" Hedges is reported as saying.
Il cannot understand why men who
are supposed TO be acquainted with
baseball law and the situation i'm the
big leagues would think of any such
pipe dream to spring on the public
The National league consent would
have to'be obtained before a deal of
that kind could he considered"

PATTERSON AMUSEMENT COM
PANY SPENDS $1,000 FOR

{ TON is IDEAL.

When circus or large carnival
comes To city and exhibits for a day
or week little is thought of how and
where the aggregation of animals and
equipment are taken care of during
the cold season or period of inactivity.
When the Patterson carnival closed
last year negotiations were on To Sc
cure for them a site for winter quar-
tiers. as the Patterson shows were win
tered temporarily i'm the old wagon
shops at Joplin, Mo- While these
shops and premises consist of twenty
acres or moro, they proved TO be mad
equate for the shows, A park and race
track are looked upon favorably by
Mr. Patterson and there Is no doubt
hut what he would have made the Sc
lection here had he not succeeded in
getting a better bargain. The bcauti-
iul fair grounds at Paola were for sale
and exactly suitable for winter quar-
ters for big show. The park consists
oil forty acres with all buildings ne
cessary to conduct a county fair. Mr..
Patterson secured these grounds and
buildings for the sum of $4,000. This
VIII give us an idea of the amount of
space that can be occupied by circus
Tor winter quarters.
The quarters during the winter per-
lod are practically a city in themselves,
as a working force of about one humid
red men is kept on the pay roll and
each has his particular part assigned

"No."
"Don't think you've got cancer,
do you?"
"No."
"How long have you been under

about six weeks. I've lost my
appetite and feel a general gone
ness. I'm homesick and lonesome
all the time and | can't get up an
interest in anything"

any important event take place."
''Therc did. l paid off a 5000

running for ~ years"
"Good lands And YOU don't know
what ails you? Why, man, it's as
plain as the nose on your face. You
are lonesome to be under mortgage
again! You give up hunting for a
doctor and look for a money-lender
who'll take mortgage on your farm
and you'll be well man again with
