 "I see that so-and-so is all tangled up in one of the congressional investi- gatiOns." said MT. Lefevre. The word goes that he would be able to prove an alibi If he had not unfortunately writ ten a letter Now he doesn't know who has the letter-but he knows that someone has it. Until he can locate the document he will not be able to make a plea.
 Tt makes me think of the story they used to tell about Charles T. Yerkes.' concluded Mr. Lefevre. MT. Yerkes 'piayed the game when he was at it. What he wanted was results and he didn't scrutinize the means employed too closely One day a friend who had been involved in some rather question able deals with him developed symp- toms

playerdom to take for copy. He seldom tried to injure a whiskey sign at the entrance fence. He never swung around from the force Of his smash. He scorned a wagon tongue, preferring rather an imple- ment of the general suggestion of potatO-masher. and d small pota- to-masher at that He stood at the plate facing third base, being a lett handed batter He cooked his little head to one side and stared at the pitcher, outguessing him. usually
 His eye was the sort the eagles patterned after and he knew about where tEe ball was going 70 meet is hat, and about where he was going to place it after the con- tact. He held his bat ready for the tap. not for the terrific punch. He made the connection neatly and with out haste or effort. and the ball sid gracefully just past the infieIder5 and not quite close enough 70 the outfielders for the latter to be troub- lesome. That was the way he got his base hits. He figured this jo be better policy than continuing at tempts for the long shots But at that, Master Keeler could accommo- date with the lengthy ones on de- mand
 For example. Harry von der Horst once offered a big wad of ready to any Baltimore boy who would drive the ball over the rightfield fence. Big Dan Brouthers turned the trick. and drew down the cash. Keel CT hadn't heard about the offer, but when he did, he braced himself at the plate. took aim at the objective point. and lifted the first ball pitched clean over the fence and much fur ther than big Dan had sent it. And then he didn't get any prize, as the von der Horst reward was for one per formance only.
 He was just as effective in the field. He could teach a steeplechas- CT many points about jumping. and he was as fleet as the north wind.
