ject of this sketch accepted the
advantages offered and in 1892 had
saved sufficient funds to take a
teachers course in the Central
Normal College at Great Bend and
later at Bethany College at Limbs
borg. Mr.. Hubbard began his
public career in the school room.
He taught two terms in Haskell
county and nine years in Stevens
county, seven years of which as
principal of the Hugoton schools.
That he was successful is evidence
ed by the fact that he was twice
elected county superintendent of
Stevens county. AS superlntend-
emit he not only maintained an ex-
cellent school system. but in addi-
ton thereto kept the teachers
trained to the minute by means of
an eight weeks normal institute
during the summer months, Fol-
lowing his services as county sup
erintendent he was twice elected
clerk of the district court Of Stew
ems county, in which Office he
showed the same efficiency as had
characterized his work as super
intendent. While not in the SER
vice of the public Mr.. Hubbard
has DEVOTED his energies to farm
ing and the mercantile business.
He was also owner. editor and
publisher of the HugOton Hermes
for several years, during which
time the policy of that paper was
constructive in every phase and al
ways boosting for better schools,
churches and homes. Boosting
the town, county and state, always
optimistic, never knocking land
it was a mighty good policy for
developing the country.
Mr.. Hubbard has always claim
ed for this country a bright future
and four years ago, realizing that
Liberal was destined to become
the capital of the Southwest, he
bought property here and at once
became booster for Liberal and
Seward county. During his res
idence here not many things for
the good of the town and county
have come up but what Mr.. Hub
bard has been behind the PROPOSE
tion. Among the latest movements
in an industrial way is the organ
ization of the Seward County Poul-
try Association of which Mr.. Hub
bard is president.
7. w. Hubbard is progressive
citizen, a progressive Republican.
and stands for good, wholesome,
progressive laws and their enforce.
nent, and with these and other
qualifications, he will no doubt re-
,eiVe just recognition at the hands
of his party at the August pri-
naries.

COLLEGE
YOUNG WONDER

Al Orth. the veteran pitcher, whose
last big league engagement was with
Highlanders. who has just finished
a long engagement as coach for the
Washington and Lee university team,
has a very high opinion of Dave Rob-
ertson,. pitcher for the A. and Nj. col
lege team of North Carolina. who is
an asset Of the Giants. Robertson is a
southpaw and is in size a young
giant.
Ortiz grows enthusiastic when he
speaks of Robertson and declares that
if he does not prove able to hold his
W alongside Marquard ct AL, that
Manager McGraw will have a world
beater for his outfield. Robertson, IN
addition to being a great fielder. ac-
cording to Orth, stands better at the
plate than any man he has seen in
years. He is a very hard and safe hit
ter and a tcn-second sprintcr. Orth
the recollection that if Rob-
ertson is utilized in the Giant outleld
that before he is in the game a year
he will rival Ty Cobb. and that he will
prove to be a drawing card around
the National league circuit. He feels
certain that Robertson's failure as a
pitcher wouldp rove a boon for him
as we'll as for the Giants.

SAYS PITCHERS
MUST Be GAME
Mcclure Believes Ideal Ath-
lete is One Who Will
Face Music.
SPIRIT COUNTS
Warm-Up Fingers Often
Fall Down Terribly in
Big Work.
SPIRIT COUNTS

Veteran Jim Mcclure. 1ho knows
as much as anybody about pitchers.
their strength and their failings and
their gameness had a few good things
to say when he was in New York re-
Gently with the Detroit Tigers. He
said: "It is very hard to tell. from
watching the actions of young pitchers
The boys often have all the actions
of pitchers so far as any one can see
from the practice stunts. but until
they have beer under fire decline
to pass final judgment on them.
ITO my mind the ideal athlete is the
n who Is best when the necessity for
being stron" is greatest. It's that old
lighting spirit that counts. There are
lots of fellows Who are wonders i'm
practice, no matter what line of sport
they may be engaged in. But parlor
boxers seldom are fighters, and many
fine warnl-up pitchers fall down ter
ribly when they come to face the
music in a regular game.
Many a time l have warmed up
men who had everything that ] ever
have seer a pitcher display. Speed.
urves. control and everything else
would be theirs. and l would feel con-
tt1ent that they would be able to win
that day If we got them Il couple of
runs. Then these fellows would go
out in the center of the diamond and
show mo about half of what they had
displayed in warmins-up practice.
1T isn't always a lack of gameness
that accounts for a pitchers failure
to do as we'll in a game as in practice.
Some of the men are so anxious to
win that they work themselves; into
a stew. There u" plenty of fellows
who are game. vet can't do their best
when they ant to. 1t seems to be a
sort of a baseball instinct thai enables
the great pitcher to rise to the emer-
gency. He has that fighting spirit,
but at the same time keeps his head
cool"

UMPIRES al NOW BE
FROM FOUL TIPS

New York, June s.-Umpire john
stone has something new in the way
of foot goa that is apt to attract IL
lot of attention and be copied by all
the umpires. He has a metal covering
that fits over his shoes. so that foul
tips that fly down at his feet do not
break his toes. All umpires are pro-
tected we'll by the mask and the
chest pad. and the greater majority
wear shin guards beneath their trou-
sers.
When a ball is fouled off and it hits
the umpire IN the pedal extremities,
1t usually has a world of velocity be-
hind it and when it cracks him on
the hoof 1t hurts. An umpire is not
a catcher. he has no nit to shield
his feet and he lust watches the flight
of the ball, not being supposed to
beat 1t off or dodge Il. This places
him at a decided disadvantage and
the new shoe covers will turn off the
hardest of fouls.
