This is another department In
which the Philadelphia machine
is we'll matched. Myers has a be,-
ter arm than any member of
Mack's backstopping trio and can
outhit them all. He is now run
ming Wagner a neck and neck
race for the batting premiership
of the National league and Mo
Graw regards him as one of the
best hitters he has ever seen IN
the game. Few teams have been
able to steal upon him with any
continued success.
1t is difficult to forecast now
just which of his three catchers
Mack will use most but the ath-
lete chosen will have series OF
busy afternoons stopping the
Giant attack upon the bases. The
New York lineup has set sail Tor
the worlds record in stolen bases
for a year and has run amuca
upon such ranking catchers as
King, Doom, Bresnahan. Gibson
and even Archer at times.
Mack's catchers stopped the
Cubs last fall but Chance had no
such speed to work with as De-
wore, Merkle, Snodgrass, Murray,

Young Critic Wanted

Once more Albert Griffiths
young Griffo) the most wonder

known, has broken into jail, to
which he gladly went as a refuge
for the winter. A New York
judge sent him up for vagrancy.
Poor Critic was half starved, rag
ged and gray. a mere shadow of
his former self. 1t was the old
story-drink. Critic has been
slave to liquor ever since he came
to America, about II years ago,
and has been in warehouses and
insane asylums in a number Of
cities.
AS an instance of Critics re-
sponsibility, the following story
is told:
Critic got on a spree after one
of his fights and was missing for
a few days. Then the bunch To-
Gated him in a hotel on a side
street. Critic was all in when his
manager appeared on the scene.
How do you feel?" inquired the

manager said, in a solicitious
tone.

1t was about this time that Biff
walked into the locker room at
the clubhouse one afternoon,
wearing a suit of clothes made
from the same material which had
cried aloud to him from the win
dow of a Broadway shop. The
members of the team gasped as
the rehabilitated Bohannon burst
upon their tortured vision.
Old Man Perry shaded his eyes.
What is it?" he gasped. "They
don't give them away with
home runs, do they? Looks like

year, a rule was adopted barring
the employment of players owned
by major league clubs and Lowell
purchased Wolfgang outright.
The youngster decided to get
back into the majors and his
work has shown steady improve
ment. His spitball, the envy of
every pitcher in the league, has
won him another trial. "Wolfy''
proved himself a wonder about a
month ago when he pitched and
won a double header, blanking
his opponents in both contests and
allowing but six hits all told. AS
he rushed to the dressing room

who Informed him he had been
purchased by the Browns.

1t was feared at first that Cob
lentz would not return but while
watching the ST. Martins game
Saturday the desire to play grew
too strong and yesterday he ar
rived at school and asked for a
suit. Hopes for a championship
team have now risen to a great
height at the High school and

MIR. Davis Understood the Law?

Cyrus w. Davis, owner and publish
er of the Waterville Sentinel, speaking
through the editorial columns of that
organ, says:
MIR. Davis has not overlooked sec
ton II of Chapter 121, r. s.
This is rather more than We had eX-
pected, for thus ii appears, by his own
confession, that Mr.. Davis went into
making this contract with full knowl-
edge OF the law.
We wonder If the Governor and
Council will fully appreciate the humor
of Mr.. Davis little attempt to deliber
ately lead them into an infraction of
the, statutes in promoting the states
Interests by awarding such contracts to
the lowest responsible bidder.
With Mr.. Davis former connection
with State printing contracts in mind,
and without thought of his changed
relations in respect to the State de-
partment, it would be a very easy mat
ter for the Governor and Council to
overlook the fact that the head of the
department of State. the Premier of
Maine, was negotiating a contract in
his own behalf as public printer and
as a recognized publisher of daily
newspaper for pecuniary interest.
If Cyrus w Davis did fully under
stand the law, as we believe it is gen
orally understood, and deliberately set
about obtaining these contracts in dis
regard of the law, we leave his course
| to the judgment, not only of the Gov
ernor and Council but to the people of
the State of Maine. No buster on the
part of Mr.. Davis or his organ can be-
| fog the issue.
II the Secretary of State of the State
of Maine has no stronger regard for its
laws than would be indicated by such
a confession, as appeared in his per-
sonal newspaper organ Monday morn
ing, July 81, the people may we'll have
good reason to question his conduct of
the States affairs.

tROftldnd Daily PfesS.1
Prohibition of stealing in Maine
has been disgraceful farce from the
beginning. Men have stolen from the
beginning of time and will always
steal. Statewide prohibition of
stealing forces the trade out of the
hands of men of good character. who
have their license and their business at
stake, into the hands of reckless ire
sponsible unpfineipled men" Obadiah
Gardner did not say this, but he said
something like il, and with few
changes II would be what he did say.
When Mr.. Gardner says that prohibit
ton forces the liquor trade ''out of the
hands of men of good character, he
begs the question. Can any man of good
character sell intoxicants as bev-
erage? Can any man of good eharae-
ter engage for gain in business which
is the fruitful source of debauehery,
misery, pauperism and crime?
