St. Louis Where the Home Rooster Dscourages Players
BY MONTY.

NEW YORK. Jan. Z7.-That base ball
players are human and have human in
stinets can be accepted Is an axiom
They have their likes and dlslikes. Just
as have ali other mortals, but the ways
n which they exhibit them are some
times most singular
II has been said that when q ball
player acquires an aversion for anything
or for any place. nothing can erase it
That may be true, and again It may not,
but the fact remains that there Is one
city in the big league circuits which
players seem TO try to steer clear Of
81 already there. they strain to get away
and, once gone, never return II they
can help Il.
That town Is 81. Louis.
Tso reason Is not thai st. Louis IS
not good base bail city. It is q good
one. In fact it Is too good. and that is
where the answer Hts.
After comparing the crowds, both in
size ard kind, that turn out at the dr.
ferent big league parks through sew
eral years. no conclusion can be drawn
than that the Mound City has the most
rabid bunch OF base ball fanatics in the
country. They ere boon 10 the mag
nate. but bane TO the player. They
study hase ball AM, as a rais, know
base ball much better than the brother
fan In. say. for instance. Chicago, or
Philadelphia, with all their champion
teams.
These bugs 60 into spasms OF en-
thusiasm and delight over q players
work when II Is good. but they employ
equally extreme methods in eylncing
their displeaEuro when his efforts are
unproductivc OF results. They have an

other gang. And they do So have been
doing 50 for the past decade. The I'M

the fans that the manager has.to get
