CALLAHAN'S GREAT RECORD.
Career Of Chicago White sox outfielder
Has No Dupliests In Baseball.

val ~ IN ~
Has No Duplieste In Baseball.
Jimmy Callahan's record probably
has no duplicate In baseball history.
Callahan was hardly q youngster when
he quit Comiskey some five or six
years ago, and yet after so long q lay
off he is back, batting nearly 800 and
is ninth among the base runners. Nor
does Callahan appear TO be a fash in
the pan. He improves, In fact, as the
season progresses. When Callahan
went into training with the Chicago
White Sox last spring the o was
suspected OF being merely preliminary
to slipping Callahan into Dufy's
shoes. But this was a mistaken idea.
Callahan went out and made good on
his W hook and is today Il of the
most valuable outielders In the Amer
lean league.

Governor Colquitt entered activelS
into the fight against the prohibition
amendment and was threatened with
expulsion from the Methodist church
OF which he is member. The gov.
Iernor has steadfastly insisted that the
local option system now in vogue OF.
fers better control of the liquor traffic
than statewide prohibition.
Under the operation of the local op-
ton law, which went into effect about
quarter of century ago, there are
today 166 counties in Texas under the
influence of the act. There are now
only twenty-one totally wet counties
in the state. San Antonio is the center
of the wet" forces, but Dallas, Hous-
ton, Fort Worth, Ell Paso, Galveston,
and other of the larger cities are ex-
pected to roll up big anti-prohibition
majorities today. The "drys" look to
the rural districts for a victory.
