"a young curate good fellow, but

very much depressed.

dust floats highest. and imparts the

CHANGE IN PLAYERS WORTH
one Year He May Look Like MIL
lion Dollars to Owner and Follow
Ing Season Prove Failure.

Star ball players are certainly Q
mighty risky commodity.
One year player may show to
advantage, look like million dollars,
cause his owner to turn down all
kinds of fabulous offers for his serv-
ices, and the following year proves
big failure.
While every club owner Is in the
baseball business to get the money.
still it's the one ambition of every
owner and manager to win pennants,
otherwise there would be much more
trading and selling Of players among
the various clubs of the majors and
minors. Civic pride often keeps an
owner from selling one of his stars for
big sum.
Four years ago George Stone of the
league in batting Stone and his big
stick was feared by every pitcher
in the Johnsonian circuit. Every
club owner would have been delighted
to buy Stone at most any old price,
while the st. Louis fans simply idol
lied their batting king. All kinds Of
offers were made Owner Hedges, but
he turned deaf ear to them.
Stone was expected to be the big
noise the following year, but he
proved a rank disappointment. Trou-
BILE over salary caused him to get
late start. Injuries set him back sew
eral times just as he was getting into
his stride and all in all he had bad
year. One Of the injuries to his
ankle slowed him up considerably
and since then a number of hits that
he used to beat out go in the putout
column. Three years ago Stone would
have brought down something like
$4,000.
A few years ago Manager McGraw
Of the New York Giants offered the
ST. Louis Nationals $4,000 for Pitch
er Karger and was willing to throw
in couple of young pitchers to boot.
| Owner Robinson of the Cardinals
wanted to give the fans winner and
turned down the offer without even
| hesitating. Karger failed to show the
| next year, was traded to Cincinnati
and then turned loose to a minor
! league club. He is now with the
Boston Americans, but is nothing like
the pitcher he was few years ago.
| Not so many years ago Elmer
Flick, Jack Powell, Lou Criger, Terry
Turner, Herman Schaefer, Lee Tame
hill, Bill Bradley, Bill Donovan and a
host of other stars would have
brought fancy prices were they placed
oh the auction block of baseball.
While quite a few Of the boys are
still valuable to have around, there
wouldn't be any riot should they be
offered for sale, and they wouldn't
bring one-fifth the price they would
have commanded five years ago.
Good players are players who take
long chances. Players who take I'M
usual risks are, of course, very liable
to injury, and slight injuries often
ruin star players. Yes, indeed, star
