BASEBALL SIGNS.

fhsir Importance 10 Much Creator
Than Their Number.
Among the players we do not use the
word signal" With US it is "sign.'
There are not as many ''sigus" used on
q ball club as tue public would believe.
OF course the catcher must sign" the
pitcher for every ball that he throws.
That Is to prevent confusion or. as we
say. to keep from ''crossing each
other" The catcher has sign for
curve bail. u fast ball and slow one.
To ball players all curve balls. such
as the drop and the outcurve. are call
ed "a curve" The catcher gives the
same sign for any one Of them. We
do not call ball that jumps I'm" a
curve. Ball players do not recognize
the incurve. That Is called fast ball.
ANY ball thrown by right handed
pitcher with sufficient speed will jump
inward to a slight degree. The out
curve and drop are unnatural curves.
and the ball must be spun In an un-
natural manner to get that peculiar
"break."
The only other "sign' Of importance
IA the one the batter gives to the rum
ner when he intends to hit the ball. II
he wants the runner to start as he
swings ,the bit and run play he gives
him a certain sign. There are any
number Of signs used for this play.
Sometimes the batter gives it by rub
hing his hand over the small end OF
the bat. Again. be may give 1t oy

tho bi9 end Of the bat.-John J. Nc

Near Rovigo. 9Un the peninsula Of

When lobstsre Were Common.


The lobster was not always the arts-
tocrat Of the supper table and the
most costly Of delicacies. A man who
used to live in Maine, but now lives In
Ohio, has this "Reminiscences. according
to a writer in the Clevels nd Leader:
zone day here in Cleveland l took
friend out to luncheon. and suddenly
the old appetite for lobster came back
to both Of US, as we were both born
on the Maine coast. We had two full
portions. and the bill was 81. And yet
a. a boy I've seen my father standing
ON the wharf. bargaining with a fish,
erman for his lobster catch OF the day.
and often. for 81 I've seen the lobster
fisherman turn over to my father the
entire catch. and the whole boatload-
$50 or 800 big. black Holsters. perhaps
would be dumped on the landing and
taken back on our old farm as feed
for the pigs.
