teams which can boast of one star
catcher, but Griffith has three of them
who stand out. It is easily figured that
when a team has catchers who prevent
stealing that its defensive strength is of
the best, for it eliminates one class of
play by the opposition which does more
to score runs than batting.

when the official has been caught
unawares. There is no excuse for
an umpire not being right on the
spot, unless a try is made for some
thing not expected. And when he
is close and in good position an
umpire has the advantage over
every one else on the field or in the
stands.
1t is true that in case of a double

l suppose it is simply one of the

There is no such thing as

That sentiment is not original
with the leader of TIE Giants. 1t is
the creed of every manager and ac-

A long experience has taught me
that these common burglars"

Intoxicated Nth Libertu."

Your letter is longer than we could have
wished were it less interesting and instr-uc-

the heads of our immigrants are turned by
the sudden transition for what is to them

speech when applied to them. They are
ready. to believe all that compa triots al
ready accifmated tell them of the equality
of mankind and the abolition of class dis
tinctions. We know the jargon to be false
and hl1rtful to the credulous strangers, yet
we keep up the pretense. This mistake
underlies much of the evil we deprecate.
Another cause of the demoraliza ton of
those we have not the moral courage to
speak of as "a servants - is that so many
who now pose masters and mistresses
are new to the role. The woman who has
done her own housework for twenty or
thirty years, when lifted by a stroke of luck
into the position of the wife of a semi or
muitimillionaire, either spells her domes-
tics by oveTfamiliarity or anita onizes them
by superciliousness and arrogance. In
either case, they see through the sham
gentiIity and conduct themselves accord
ingly. They may be i5literate, but they are
keen to detect limitations and ready to take
advantage of their discovery. 1 might
multiply examples of this truth to an iHim-
liable extent. The class would seem to be
endowed with a detective instinct that puts

US print an interesting letter that has lain
long in my desk awaiting such time as I
could make room for 1t without seeming 10
force the subject upon readers:
By chance-or providence?-I have just
come upon an article of yours, written a
year ago, which contains this sentence:
Domestics are better paid, more kindly
treated-and. 1 may add, more effectuaIIy
spoiled-in the homes of free and enlig hit
ened America than anywhere else in the
world. 1 challenge contradiction from those
who have Travelled upon both sides of the
ocean
1t is this article that induces me to
write to you now, as have had consider
able experience with servant girls both
here and abroad. In answering your chaI-
lenge it is with no intention of CONT adicting
your assertion, for know every word to be
true you have said in comparing the Amer
lean servant with those abroad. You speak
absolute truth. and not all of it.
If our servant over here could but re-
alize how much better her position is in
every respect than that of her sister over
seas, how contented and happy she would
be!
Let US first consider the wages paid
here and those paid there. The cook in the
