AK TOTHTNG like being in the
I'm swim" says Joe McGinnit,.
The Iron Man is contemplating
the purchase of an automobile, a mol
ern car in every way, and has been
looking over models of all types ana
varieties for a fortnight. Since Nc
Ginnity first announced his intentions
of getting. a buzz" wagon he has beer
besieged by statesmen from several local
companies The Iron Man" says thai
he wished he had been in the big show
last year, for he sure would have made
Messrs. Lajoie and Cobb hustle for that
Standardization. The announcement
of this deal is no breach of confidence.
Before leaving for Chicago, Henry
Clay Smith, part owSner of the Tigers.
and Joe McGinnity held a consultation
Smith admits that the Rochester Club
has as great an aggregation of minor
league ball players as has ever been
gathered In any minor league under the
sun, but he believes that the Tigers
will be right there all the time. we
| will have a team right up IN top all
of the time or spend every cent We
have" said Smith. And he spoke as
though he meant. 1t. Perhaps Joe Me-
Ginnity has a few interesting deal to
announce In the near future. Remem .

placed in good standing In organized
baseball on the payment of 500. John
Camel has notified him that his re-
