SPORTING NEWS OF THE WORLD
SAYS TW!RlER MUST HAVE
SPEED TO BE SUCCESSFUL

Christy Mathewson is of the opin-
ion that the day of the slow ball pitch.
er in fast company is a thing of the
past.
when ! broke into the big league,
says Christy, win Mercer. Clarke
Griffith Red Donahue and other pitch
ers were getting away with their
games and each one was depending
upon slow ball to a large extent.
Billy Reidy and Dutsy Rhodes fol-
lowed them, but look over the list Of
pitchers in the two big leagues today
and you will not find single pitcher
who is noted for his slow ball. There
may be some who have a noater in
their repertory, but they do not de-
pend upon il to any extent.
To-day the big league pitcher must
have speed The majority of the big
league pitchers are large men, but
large or small they must be able to
put steam on the ball or they go back
to the minors. In fact. when big
league scout reports some minor league
find to his employer, the first ques-
ton that the latter asks is: HAS he
any smoker"
Il have reasoned ii out that the
slow ball pitcher scarcely ever won
his games by small scores, and the
clubs i'm the days when slow ball
pitchers thrived generally had a lot
of batters who won their games by
big scores. 1t did not cause much
damage if five or six runs were scored
against a club that owned a slow
ball pitcher if that team was able to
go out and score seven or eight runs
But nowadays the scores are smaller
and the man with the floater finds it
difficult to stand the pace"

FIRST BASEMEN
GETTING SCARCE
STAR INITIAL sAckERS ARE
HARD TO FIND. ONLY FEW
GOOD MEN IN THE MAJOR
LEAGUES.

New York, Jan. 31.-Any minor
league manager who can develop a
real star first baseman can obtain
almost any price he cares to ask for
him. Gilt edged initial sackers belong
to a rare breed and are becoming more
valuable every day. Most of the ex-
periments that the major league Clubs
will try in the spring will he at the
Keystone cushion.
There are really only six stellar first
basemen in the sixteen clubs compris-
ing the two major leagues, and four
of these are i'm the National one Of
the two American lcaguers. Jake
Stahl, has announced his retirement
from the game, so that Hal Chase is
really the only first base marvel left
in the Junior organization.
In the National league there may
be differences of opinion as to the rel
alive merits OF Chance of Chicago,
Konetchy of st. Louis, Hcbitzel Of
Cincinnati and Daubert of Brooklyn;
but in the American league Chase is
without a peer since Stahl, who was
his nearest rival. has chosen banking
i'm preference to baseball.
Tom Jones of Detroit is a good, re-
liable first sacker and one Of the
nervicst men i'm the game, but he is
not i'm class with the New Yorker.
Harry Davis of the Athletics is past
his prime and there has neen talk Of
his making way for u younger man.
Stoval failed 10 shine for Cleveland
last year with his old-time briliancy.
but he may play the high class ball of
which he is capable when next season
opens.
Chicago. Washington and st. Louis
are all after new men and if any of
their recruits show sufficient class
there is a position open for them. Bos
ton must Of course, replace Stahl and
will probably use Bradley unless some
one appears better.
In the National league. Pittsburg,

welcome a first class guardian of the

ton to the fact that there is apparent

tional Lacquer at ~ recent meeting.
THAT man Connie Mack has more
men tipping him off on young players
than any other manager in the big

Roger Bresnahan of the Cardinals

ing. and he continued: Il did some
of my own scouting last summer. L

fancy price for him right then and

ing purchased Derrick that very
morning"
And Bresnahan was not the only
scout that arrived in Greenville too
late. John Camel Of Rochester and
Bobby Gilks Of the Maps were two
others who looked the youngster
over. Camel was too late. while Gilks
was not impressed by Derricks work
the days he looked him over.
Catcher O'Nen of Elmira was an
other youngster that Connie grabbed
just ahead of a bunch of other clubs
who had scouts looking the youngster
over. O'Neil is said TO have great
future ahead of him, and to be an
even better prospect than Jack Lapp.

CHAMPIONS BEAVERS CAUSE.
Farmer Says They Do No Harm and
Are Productive of Good.

Il want to put in a good word for
the much maligned beaver" said a
farmer in town yesterday. "All this
recent talk about the beaver being a
pest and hindrance to the march of
civilization is nonsense. from what
have observed. on the other hand. the
beaver is one of the most harmless
and even desirable of all our wild ami
mails. True II is that beavers build
dams, and by those very dams the up
per peninsula has been saved thou
sands of dollars of damage from forest
fires.
when a forest fire comes to a
beaver meadow it stops. / can show
you many places where the land would
be dry If IL were not for the beavers.
and where large tracts of timber have
been saved from fire by these beaver
marshes. AS far as destroying timber
is concerned, the beavers won't cut
anything but alders and brush IL they
can get It, and what few small trees
they damage do not amount to any

a refuge for deer from flies and often
from wolves.
CAS- far as hindering the march OF
civilization, those who lay anything
like that up against the beavers do
not know what they are talking about.
Beavers will not stay where there are
human beings. and as soon as their
haunts are molested by settlers; they
move on without making anyone any
trouble. The beaver is one of the
most interesting of our wild animals,
and also one of the most harmless.
Let him alone and he will take good
care to keep out of the way of coloni-
zation and settlement plans"

TO PROVIDE FOR
Spring CAUCUS
lAURlUM COUNCIL MAY ALSO
DISCUSS MATTER OF SUBJ
MlTTINe BONDING ouEs-
TON TUESDAY.

The regular meeting of the Laurium
promises to prove one of the most i'm
portant of the year. Among the mat
ters TO come up for consideration is
that of setting the date and making
arrangements for the spring caucus.
AS the caucus will be held during the
latter part of February. il is necessary
that the date be set at this time so
that sufficient notice may be given to
the voters.
Another matter which may also be
considered is that of submitting the
question of bonding the village for
money with which to bring about sew
er improvements. There has been
considerable agitation during the past
year against the condition of the sew
ers it being claimed that the open
sewers close to the town are very un-
sanitary. 1t is estimated that at
least $4,000 would be required to
bring about the desired Improvement,
and before bonds could be issued for
s''''N "ih'uhN NhN dpBipNol VI Nit WI
ers would be required. 1t is almost
certain that several new councilmen
win be elected in Laurium this spring
as several of the old board retire, and
Tor this reason the present council
may defer action on the sewer ques-
ton until the new trustees take hold.
There is little doubt that the sewer
problem is an important one for the
village at the present time and that
II will have TO be satisfactorily met
during the next few years. The sew
ers running directly east of the viii
lagc from between First and Second
street and southeast from the Laur-
ium are open and both are said to be
in need of attention.
