PETERSBURG, Va Special.-Au
interesting question was raised in Po-

charles T. Lassiter. attorney for n
woman accused of selling gin without
license. argued for an acouittal on
the ground that the State statutes

that the statute enumerated those ar
uent spirits which could not be sold
without license. and among then,
gin is not mentioned. As all other
intoxicating liquors are expressly
named. Mr.. Lassitcr contended that
gin cannot be included and that the
woman could not be convicted on the

Miller Huggins, of the st. Louis
Cardinals, was credited last season
with drawing 1I6 bases on balls in
l51 games played during the year. 1t
was the first time that the National
league officials gave out record OF
bases ON balls scored by the various
players. The record made by Hug
gins was a good one. but IL does not
equal that put up by Manager John
McGraw, of the Giants, as far back
as 1899. when the little corporal was
the manager of the Baltimore Orioles.
According TO the official scorer OF
the Baltimore club, MCGraw did not
fail TO reach first base at least once
in the first Ga games played that sea-
son. In 80 games his total OF free
passes secured from opposing pitchers
amounted TO los.
During his career IS player Nc.
Graw was known as the best natural
waiter in the game, having a fine eye
that could measure distance accurate
ly.
When Ned Hanlon took charge or
the Baltimore team in 1898, McGraw
was not star by any means. He
was the utility man on the team, and
he had lots to learn. But McGraw
had the brains. He loved baseball,
which was the case with all the Baltl-
more players who became famous.
Each OF the big our-McGraw, Keel
er, Jennings and Kelley-went into
the game for the love of IL and played
with his brains as well as his hands.
Each was willing TO take Hanlons
advice and follow IL out to the best
OF his ability.
McGraw being natural waiter,
Hanlon led him of for that season
But McGraw had his faults then, and
on some occasions he did not walt
One day he had two balls and no
strikes. Then a ball came over and
Johnny hit il. He popped. When he
reached the bench Hanlon said:
Why, Mack. that amt the kind OF
base ball you play
McGraw flared up at once and re-
marked. Why don't you call 'So-and-
So when he don't look them over"
To this Hanlon answered:
You don't think 'So-and-So' is in
your class, do you? You are the sort
of fellow who should go ahead in the
game and profit by the brains you
have. II you play the game like the
man you mention. you can not expect
TO become a great star"
That was enough. One word or
hint was sufficient tor McGraw. He
caught the bait and became the peer

RETURN
TO MONROE CAMP
Look Much Better Than When They

BY PAUL HALE sRusKE.

N MONROE, La, March Zl'- aiteI
pheasant and successful trip, the llg'
ers returned here today, enthusiasucs
over the prospects OF returning north
to open the baseball season next
month. The Tigerettes had already
arrived from their jaunt when the
veterans appeared and no time was
lost by their manager in getting them
out TO the ball park where they were
nut through strenuous practice.
The Tigers are different looking
lot OF men from the bunch which lett
Monroe nearly a week ago. They
have filed out the hollows left by the
strenuous sessions under the manage
ment of Hughie Jennings. and have
worked on the distressing lamenesses
OF the early season. with most appar-
ent Improvement
Most of the athletes shuddered
over their return to Monroe and the
bush-league eats but the stay will be
for three days only and should rather
Improve than injure them.
The regular team made probably
the greatest known leap between
feasts and famine in the annals OF
baseball, when they left Monroe and
pulled into New Orleans. They fell
on that Creole grub like so many
famished savages. The restaurants
along the lire of New Orleans famous
row. were played at an average OF
f1ve times a day, and the mems spirits
went up In proportion.
In New Orleans, Manager Jennings
broke custom of years in making no
american of dining plan arrange
ments but giving the players SO a
day and turning them loose. II was
enough TO make a strong man weep
to see the way those Tigers laid out
their So per. Oysters from ten to
twenty-five cents a dozen, according

Salads, Sauces.
No Tiger Is known to have eaten
twice at the same place and very few
bothered around the st. Charles at
meal times.
This sudden transition after the
Monroe experience might have been
damaging but for the long spell of
lean days which had preceded. AS it
was, it proved just what the team
wanted and, in the second game of
the New Orleans series. the Tigers for
the first time all year, looked like a
real, genuine, big-league ball club.
