Hlqh Ball Seldom Used.

It is a noticeable fact that the most successful pitchers these days are those who seldom pitch a high ball, and yet there was a time when the high ball had the batters guessing. Today, however, the pitcher with the high ones does not last long. The bats men have mastered this delivery and the pitchers have been forced to change their style of pitching entire ly. There are decidedly few players these days who hit the low balls, and very few who cannot hit a high one Most of the long hits made during a season are on balls that are pitched above the waist. Not only is 1t easier to follow the course of a ball which is pitched on about a level with the waist line, but the swing in most in- stances is more natural.

Atlantic City. N T, May s.4--R Rev. pr William D. cirant of North amber1and Pa, has been found guilty of heresy by the commission which heard the charges made against him. The com mission reported its findings to the Presbyterian general assembly (north) this morning.
 The commission found that pr. Grant taught doctrines contrary to the word of God in .the Bible and the Presby- terian confession of faith. He Is held to be guilty under the rules of the Presb yterian book of desciplne and the committee recommends Dr. Grant to be suspended from exercising the func- tions of a minister of Presbyterian church until such time that he can con- vince his own presbytery, that of Northumberland, that he has renounced the errors he has been found to hold and to satisfy the presbytery of his purpose no longer to teach them.
 A motion to adopt the report and confirm the judgment of the commits sion was put to vote in the assem- bly and was carried overwhelmingly without debate. There were only few scattered noes"
 Although the decision was at first crushing blow to friends of Dr. Grant, the judgement which leaves 1t up to his own presbytery to reinstate him, that body having already acquitted him once and being obviously fayora- ble to him. somewhat took the sting out of the apparent harshness of the yer dict.
