Ed Hayden wants Job.

A few years ago when he was wearing
a Washington uniform Ed Hayden, the
catcher, showed promise of developing
into a clever backstop.
After he had been let out by Cantll-
lon he went to Kansas City, but was
unable to catch satisfactorily, and now
he is trying to land a berth with In
dianapolis, in the American Association.
Hayden was never strong physically,
and this has done about as much as
anything else to cause his failure to
make good in the minors.

Hughey Fullerton who is writing a
most thoroughly interesting series of
stories on the prospects of the different
ball clubs of both major leagues comes
out with the prediction that Cleveland
will finish far back in the race.
1t was Fullerton who last week wrote
a criticism of the Washington club, and
discussed the probable showing of sew

Fullerton's opinion of the Maps will
have about as much weight in Cleveland

TOM HUGHES LOOKS
LIKELY TO M'ALEER
Assertions He Will Not
Come Back Not Worry
ing Manager.
GAME AND KNOWS
HOW TO PITCH
Feared None More Than That Sky
scraper When He Was In
St. Louis.
By THOMAS KIRBY.

''T'he assertions being made in other
places that Tom Hughes will not come
back this year, are not worrying me
in the least" said Jim McAleer, the
Washington manager this morning.
when 1 was at St. Louis there was
hardly a pitcher on the circuit I feared
more than the skyscraper. We beat him
quite frequently, but it never was a
Cinch.
Hughes differs from most pitchers in
that he knows how TO pitch. 1t is not a
proposition of telling him anything. He
knows most Of the batters, understands
their weaknesses and is so supremely
game that he is a most valuable man.
"One of the instructions will give our
men is that they are not to interfere in
any way with Hughes when he is at
work. With the younger pitchers it's
a different proposition. Capable men
like ElbClfeld and Mcbride are often
able to help the youngsters out by sug-
gestions, but with Hughes 1t is a case
of going ahead and pitching the way he
desires.
IF Hughes does not make good will
be greatly surprised, and it will, of
course. be blow to the Nationals"

Leagues lining up. tsN
One by one the amateur leagues OF
Washington have been organizing for
the coming season on the diamond, and
the list is now practically completed.
There has been no greater handicap
in the past than the repeated postpone
ments of meetings, until the commission
has been held back almost to the time
the season is to open.
This abuse should be corrected with
out further delay.
In order to do its work properly the
commission should have its plans per-
fected weeks in advance. and in order to
do this 1t would be necessary to have
all the leagues hold their annual meet
ings not later than February ]. BY in
cooperating some such regulation in the
code the whole situation would be bene-
fitted.

The Cleveland papers are unanimous
in their opinion that in Andrew keefe,
the Nationals have picked up the like
liest looking amateur player in Ohio.
Keefe, who has just passed his ma
jority, has played on a number of in
dependent teams in Cleveland, and has
always been considered a most reliable
hitter and fielder.
Should keefe fail to impress McAleer
sufficiently at Atlanta he will be sent

Mackey comes back.

Rob Roy Mackey, the grand old man
of Washington wrestling, made most
creditable showing when he succeeded
in staying one hour against Frank
Lynch, of Baltimore, last night at the
Center Market armory.
Lynch is recognized as being one OF
the cIeverest wrestlers in the game,
and with twenty pounds advantage in
weight II was thought that he would
dispose of Mackey. But the Washing
ton man was in excellent condition and
succeeded in keeping away from his
opponent for the full sixty minutes,
much to the satisfaction of the crowd.

PATENT
Docs Peterson Gas Alarm
!. Company of CIarks-
burg, w. Va.

Peterson Gas Alarm Company of
clarksburg has just received from
the patent Office at Washington the
final papers in the patent which they
have secured on the Peterson Gas
Alarm. With this detail completed
the gas alarm will be placed on the
market without further delay.
1t will be remembered that this
patent was perfected some months
ago and the firm was organized I'M
der West Virginia charter, 1t being
composed OF Messrs. Edmund HugllI,
Albert S. Gould. and DR.. Fleming
Howell and others. After applying
for the patent they began manufac-
turing the alarms and have already
sold them throughout the country.
Since the alarm has been placed on
the market the patentees have re-
Cedved many letters OF endorsement or
1t from the various cities over the
country where natural gas is in use.
These letters Of endorsement ere COM
ing from the m" nagement OF the gas
companies and from the officials Of
the cities where they have been IN
stalled. These men are recommending
the installation OF the alarm in every
home where gas is used.
The alarm is neat little arrange
ment which is placed just back Of
the gas light or on the gas line any
place in the house where the alarm
can be heard by the occupants of the
home at any time in daytime or night.
The gas pressure. while normal, pre-
vents the bell from ringing and the
instant that the pressure leaves the
alarm sounds. This awakens the oc-
cupants OF the house so that they can
shut the gas off from all fires and Ok
lures and thus prevent being asphix-
lated OF losing their lives in the ex-
plosion which would most assuredly
occur when the gas came on again,
and you light match to see what is
wrong.
There has been a number Of homes
destroyed and lives lost during the
present winter season over the coun-
try as result OF the gas failing dur
ing the night and coming on again
without notice to the consumers.
These accidents would have been pre-
vented in every instance had the gas
alarm been installed where they oc-
Cured.
During the present winter there has
been number of explosions along
the gas lines in this vicinity which ne
cessitated the turning off OF the gas
by the company. While there has
been no serious accidents in this i'm
mediate vicinity it is little short OF a
miracle that such has been the case.
One fact which makes the gas
alarm essential in the home is that It
is 5dnidng5 the coolest winter weather
that the gas fires are allowed to blu n
in the room at night. and it is during
this severe weather that the gas lines
are most apt to so wrong and thus
shut. the gas supply off.
Address all inquiries and commu-
.nlcations to 225 N. Chestnut St.

Attemps to Commit Suicide at Station

Before the eyes of many hor- rified spectators about 10 o'clock last night a man about 55 years old walked to the railing which surrounds the platform at the Union Station at Little Rock and deliberately leaped to the rail- road tracks below. He was rush. ed immediately to St. Vincent's Infrmary and is not expected to recover. His name is supposed to be Fred Meyer, as he had in his pockets certificates of deposit in Hot Springs bank for $500 and a bank in Chicago for S1 300 in that name. He also had a tick ct reading from Little Rock to Saint Louis.
 The man is described as ap- parently German about 55 or 50 years old, plainly dressed, with gray moustache. The train that he evidently intended to take for Saint Louis had just left the sta tion.
