Violin Makers Work So Good tho
Critics Would Not Accept 1t
as His Own.

While 1t is no easy matter for a
violin maker to rival the famous
stradivarius instruments, an Ameri-
can maker once did this, and did 1t
In so effectual 4 manner that experts
pronounced his violin a genuine
Stradivarius. The successful man
was George Gemunder, who died some
ten years ago. His remarkable abil-
ity as a maker of vioobas was known
to many a distinguished player, such
as Ole Bull, Remenyi and Wilhelmj,
but he achcievod-so runs the story
his greatest success at the last Paris
exposition. To that exhibition he sent
an imitation Stradivarius, and, to test
It's merits, had it placed on exhibition
as the genuine article. 4" " =
A committee Of experts carefully ex-
amined the instrument and pronounced
It Stradivarius. So far Gemunder's
triumph was complete, but now came
q difficulty. When he claimed that it
was not an old violin but new one
made by himself, the committee
would not believe him. They declared
that he had never made the instru-
ment and pronounced him an impos-
tor. He had done his work too well.

lecting the box artist. When one
works with pitcher day in and day
out he comes to know the occasions
when he has tho "stuff." The catch
er realizes if his pitchers ball isn't
breaking right or If the fast ball hasn't
the hop. OF course, lot of flingera
are slaughtered on their best days, but
that is part OF the game. In the long
run it works out that the pitcher who
is right on certain day does better
than fellow who hasn't his best as
sortment of foolers
No ball club ever went very fal
without star catcher, with the pos
sibls exception Of the Detroit Tigers,
and they possessed such an unusual
array of hitting talent that they were
exceptions to the rule. Lucky indeed
is the club that has the manager in
the strategic position behind the bat
ter and able to do sterling yeoman
duty day in and day out.
As demonstration Of what intelli.
gent catching means, look what hap
pened to the Cardinals when Roger
Bresnahan quit working last autumn.
Johnny Killing, who was taken over
from the Cubs by Boston and handed
the managerial reins after Fred Tenny
has failed, will get chance to show
his worth this season. King is GER
tainly one of the best catchers in the
game, but just how he will work with
the MANAGERS troubles will be seen
the coming campaign. Fred Tenney
himself broke into baseball as 4
catcher.

To Test Battleship Florida.

Washington, D. c., March 1S.-The
steaming trials of the super-dread-
nought Florida are expected to en-
gross the undivided attention of nav
al men this week. The interest in
the trials is due partly to the fact
that the Florida is to be one of the
largest and most formidable fighting &
machines afioat, but more especially
because she is the first battleship to
be built in a government yard in
many years. A close comparison ma
turally will be made between her per-
formances and those of her sister
ship, the Utah, which has just been
turned out at a private yard.
The Florida and the Utah are the
latest and mightiest fighting units in
the United States Navy and one or
the other will supersede the Connecti-
cut as the flagship of the North At
lantic fleet. If she comes up to the
expectations of her constructors, 22
knots will be reeled off by the Flori-
da, propelled by the enormous tur-
bine engines of the Parsons type.
When she sails she will represent
an expenditure of nearly $10,0O0,-
600. AS compared with the next
largest ships in the United States
Navy-the Delaware and the North
Dakota type-the Florida and Utah
are ten feet longer, 1925 tons greater
displacement, on even terms as to the
main battery, but with two more of
the 5-inch guns in the secondary bat
terry. When completely manned the
Florida will carry $40 men and so
officers, and will have a larger steam
ing radius than any vessel now in
commission.

Stock Show at Fort Worth.

Fort Worth, Texas, March 1S.-
Fort Worth is thronged with the ad-

Fat Stock Show given under the aus
pices of the Texas Cattle Raisers' as
sociation. The big convention of the
cattle raisers' association will not be-
gin it's sessions until tomorrow, but
the fat stock show was opened to Wis
itors today. The show this year en-
braces a mammoth display of cattle,
horses, swine, sheep and poultry, TO-
gether with department devoted to
exhibits of special interest to home
seekers. Thousands of visitors are
expected here during the week from
all parts of the West and Southwest.

Meteor's Rings.

Il. In the entrance to the American
Museum Of Natural History in New
York stands large meteor brought to
that city and presented to the museum
by the Peary Expedition company. To
handle the immense mass of metal
and stone large iron hooks and rings
were made fast at several places.

CATCHER AS MANAGER
Problem as to Why They Make
Best Leaders Unsolved.
RED" DOOM and Roger Bresnahan %
Not Find Duties Too Arduous to
Prevent Them From
Playing In Game.

Every year somebody rises to re-
mark that the bench manager is su-
perior to the man who directs his
clubs affairs from tho field. You can
prove this by several cases. You can
prove it isn't 20 by just as many.
Therefore, like the ancient query a.
TO tho Ago Of Ann. the answer is not
yet.
But here is one limo Of dope you
have some foundation to argue on:
Catchers make good managers, wheth-
er they lead from bench or behind tho
bat. OF the 18 major clubs 6 Of
them are piloted by catchers or ex-
catchers. Why the backstop should
blossom forth as a manager isn't ap-
parent, unless, perhaps, he has been
10 busy bossing tho pitchers that the
habit grows to include the entire
club.
Two of tho catcher-managers are ac-
lively engaged behind the bat and do
not find their duties too laborious to
prevent them from being top-notchers
as participants. These two are Rog-
er Bresnahan of the Cardinals and Red
Doom of the Phillies.
Cornelius McGillicuddy, when he lug
ged that impossible name into the big
league, was a receiver Of rare worth.
The only reason he quit receiving was
to become head of club. His work
with the Athletics has been great
accomplishment.
Frank Chance, termed the Peerless
Leader" when the Cubs were at the
hey-day of their glory, started as
catcher. Then he went to first base,
because there was nobody else on
hand to occupy that position. Harry
Davis also was catcher, but gave 1t
up to play at the initial station.
It is certain the catcher-manager
who can warm up his own pitchers ID

will be submitted to the voters.
Nevada and Texas are two western
states in which women have no form
of suffrage. In Nevada, however, a
bill comforting the full franchise
on woman has been approved by the
legislature, and suffrage clubs are be-

state Of Texas
Colorado will send a large delega-
tion to Washington, D. c., to take
part in the woman suffrage hearing
before Congress March 13.
Advocates of woman suffrage in
Nebraska are planning an extensive
campaign for the coming year. A
house to house canvass will be made
throughout the state, to register the
attitude of every voter and every
woman, and organizers will be sent
into the field early in the: spring.
According to Boston papers, the
women of Cambridge have just con-
