No More Room.

The railway carriage was crowded,
but very fat old gentleman who sat
by the window calmly ignored the
ominous looks of the passengers for
taking up so much room.
A boy selling buns poked his head
in at the window and inquired:
Buns, sir?"
The old gentleman was slightly deaf,
and, not noticing the buns, thought
the boy wanted seat in the already
packed carriage; so he remarked:
Full up, my boy! No more room
inside!"
A roar Of laughter followed his re-
ply, and the old gentleman innocent
ly wondered as to the cause OF their

SILVER FLINT
Who Caught 21S Games Out of 252 Played, and Helped Win Three
 Championships.

If anybody recalls a catcher out side of Silver Flint, who caught three championship years in a row and fig ured actively in 21S games out of 252 played, let him speak or forever after hold his peace. To our untu- tored way of thinking, this record of Silver Flints stands as an achieve ment.
 It is unlikely that you are not thoroughly familiar with Master Flint's accomplishment-but just on the out side chance that you may have mis- laid the matter in the blurring rush of modern things, let's remind you that Frank Flint was the Boy Behind the Bat when the Chicago club, with the estimable William A. Burlbert as president and your avuncular relative Adrian C. AnsOn. as manager and captain won the National champion ships of 1880. 1881 and 1882 Just to give A. c. Spaulding a line on the program. it should be remembered that he was secretary for the first two years and president thereafter.
 But Frank Flint was the boy They called him Frank when they leaned to the formal. Other times he was silver" because he had blonde hair And every baseball hero has to have he is genuinely beloved. So it was Silver" to the fans. and Frank at payroll times
 Silver Flint must go down in his tory as the man who didn't know how to shirk. He was the sort who could work from six in the morning till eight at night and then start out to hunt up a job. For thirteen joyous years. Master Flint was back of the bat in 9S5 games. the great majority of games played by the clubs which boasted his services. He caught most of the time with hands as bare as the day he was born, and there wasn't a pitcher had anything Silver couldn't stop. He grabbed outcurves drops, fade-aways, fast ones and slow ones. and when these grew monot- onOus. he signalled for change of pace and insisted on being handled a new sort every time just to keep him keyed up.
 Larry Mclean is the only gent can think of who approximated Sil- ver's class. I remember one day at the Polo Grounds. when the Cincin- natis were visiting the Giants. I ab- sent mindly asked Larry who was going to catch for his team. It al- most insulted him.
 That was the way it was with Sil- Yer Flint Bar accident, he'd catch the season. In 1880. out of S4 games played by Chicago. he caught @. and Chi won the flag. In 1881. he caught - out of S4 and again Chi won, as it did the following year when Silver received 70 times out of a possible Si. These figures are respectfully recommended to the attention of cer- tain present day catchers whose names need not be named in these all friend ly despatches
