What the wrestIers, Boxers and Base
Ball Artists Are Doing.

star Dali players are Seluotn
content to play their position, de-
clares Billy Evans. American League
umpire. "Outfielders banker for
the infield or the pitchers job. In
fielders want to play the outfield or
go on the mound. Few long to be
catchers.
"Ty Cobb is perhaps the greatest
outfielder, all things considered, the
game has ever known. He always
wanted to be a pitcher. 1t is not
uncommon to see him working with
a catcher instead Of cavorting in the
outfeld. Cobb, by the way, has a
varied assortment of slants.
There is Hal Chase, premier
first baseman. Hal has designs on
second, and may play there next
season. He scoffs at the idea that
lefthander cannot play second and
make double plays. He also likes
to pitch and usually goes to the
rubber in exhibitions.
=" Doc White is strong for the
outfield and spends time playing
the garden. Although a high-class
southpaw pitcher, White hopes to
play the field when his pitching
cunning deserts him. His speed
and batting make him look good.
Joe Birmingham, one OF the
games greatest throwing outfielders,
prefers the infield. He played
second as bush Lacquer and wants
to get back to the first line Of de-
fense. Joe had a notion to turn
catcher and tried the job one spring,
only to pass it up. He didn't fancy
gazing through mask for nine
innings.
Barney Petty, who is one Of the
best pitchers in the American League
when he is right, likes the infield.
His work at third and short is ex-
cellent, but his batting is so light
that he will scarcely land an infield
job when he gives up pitching.
Although one of the greatest of
shortstops, Hans Wagner likes the
outfield best. He was of such value
to Pittsburg at short that he was
simply forced to play there.
Ball players take delight in put
ting up "iobs" on unsophisticated
bushers breaking into the game,
and so it happened that Pat Bohen,
the Oakland pitching recruit from
Napa, got his" when he left the
farm to become sure-enough ball
player. He accompanied the Oaks
on trip to Portland, and no SOON
er had the train pulled out of the
Oakland mole than the players were
together trying to trap the young
ster.
Finally Honus Mite and Izzy
Hoffman hit upon scheme. They
called Bohen aside and asked if he
would like to participate in friend
ly game of pool. Of course, Bohen
was willing to be one of the crowd /,
and wanted to know where the
poolroom was. Hoffman explained
that the little door at the forward
end of the car, marked "A" was
the poolroom, and the other door,
marked B." was the bowling
alleys. Bohen opined that it was
nice of the railroad people to pro-
vide such amusement for the travel
ers, and started for the poolroom.
He opened the door and walked into
a private drawing-room, where one
of the passengers was just preparing
to retire. Then the gang gave the
busher the horse laugh.

to die as he had done? I did not
think so, for l knew that we had a
few hours before US and that could
employ them to better purpose than
Joseph BuQuet was able to do. After
all, was thoroughly acquainted with
most OF Erik's tricks; and now or
never was the time to turn my knowl-
edge to account.
To begin with, gave up every idea
of returning to the passage that had
brought us to that accursed chamber.
did not trouble about the possibility
of working the inside stone that
closed the passage; and this for the
simple reason that to do SO was out
of the question. We had dropped
from too great height into the tor
ture-chamber; there was no furniture
to help us reach that passage; not
even the branch OF the iron tree, not
even each others shoulders we're OF
any avail. @&f
/: There was only one possible outlet,
that opening into the Louis-Philippe
room In which Erik and Christine
Daae were. But, though this outlet
looked like an ordinary door on Chris
tines side, it was absolutely invisible
to us. We must therefore try to open
it without even knowing where It was.
When / was quite sure that there
was no hope for us from Christine
Daae's side, when / had heard the
monster dragging the poor girl from
the Louis Philippe room lest she
should interfere with our tOrtures, /
resolved to set to work without delay.
But had first to calm M. de Chag-
ny. who was already walking about
like a madman, uttering incoherent
cries. The snatches of conversation
which he had caught between Chris
tine and the monster had contributed
not q little to drive him beside him
self: add to that the shock Of the
magic forest and the scorching heat
which was beginning to make the
Precipitation stream down his tenn
pies and you will have no difficulty in
understanding his state OF mind. he
shouted Christine's name, brandished
his pistol, knocked his forehead
against the glass in his endeavors to
run down the glades Of the Elusive
forest. In short, the torture was be-
ginning to work its spell upon a brain
unprepared for it.
