the Basque country and immense

The court was convulsed, and the
president asked the boy how he dared
to treat the court in such a manner.
The boy seemed as surprised as tho

from his pocket, read the formula in

Remarkable Coincidence in Sum Of
Money That Rastus Had in
His Pocket.

Rastus was on trial, charged with
stealing seven dollars and eighty-tive
cents. He pleaded not guilty, and, as
be was unable to hire an attorney, the
Judge appointed Lawyer Clearem as
counsel. Clearem put up strong
plea in defense, and Rastus was ac-
Quilted.
Counsel and client met a few min

Now, Rastus," said Clearem,

HAS HARD TIME BREAKING IN
Major League Stands Have Proved Big
Handicap to Recruits From
Smaller Clubs.

Artie Holman, the Cubs star out.
lelder, frequently has interesting con-
Tlbuuons to make to the baseball lit
srature of the day. Just now Artie
arises to remark that 1t is a mighty
lard thing for a young outAelder to
make good in the major leagues these
lays, and says that mo matter how
good the recruit may look In the rec
'rds and when he is with the minors,
ae Is bound to have a hard time show
.ng any fielding form when he breaks
m with fast company.
u played the outfeld with minor
eague teams for some time, and have
been with the Cubs for a good many
seasons, too" says Holman, and
Turing all my experience in baseball
'he things that strike me as being one
of the hardest things in the game for
IN outfielder to buck up against is the
dig type of grand stands which they
ire building around the circuit now.
Take the National league-there Is
Plttsburg, Cincinnati Boston and
Philaoelphla-in all these cities are
big, high grand stands which do not
nave any effect on the infelders, but
lurt the work of the Outfielders. With
.hese big, nigh stands we do not see
by ball until It has passed out OF the
grand stand line, when we get some
light behind II, and then II is too
late for us to know where It is going
% fall, and where we shall run to
catch It; II an outfielder gets used to
he different parks around the circuit
This is not so bad, but when he is just
breaking in and is not acquainted with
The parks It is liable to kill his game
completely.
There was a good deal OF complaint
from all the outfielders about this in
Philadelphia during the world series;
with the crowd on the field they had
an especially hard time getting long
flies, for they could not see the ball
lntil It was almost on the ground, and
.hen It was too late to chase It any
distance, and impossible with big
crowd on the field"
Artle is not suggesting any cure for
his evil, but merely telling about It;
In fact, there is no cure-unless. we
are going to have the magnates tear
ing down all their beautiful big grand
stands and making their spectators sit
On nothing but little benches which
won't interfere with the daylight and
make II hard to catch fly balls.
