Ames's record would indicate that
he was an in-and-outer. but the fact
remains that he has lost more small

FRED C. MERKLE FIRST
BASE

Frederick Merkle, the brilliant first
haseman of the Giants. Is considered
the best pinch hitter on the team.
and is one of the most dangerous
hitters in the game at any stage. NO
matter how much a pitcher appears
to ave Merkle's number. he is liable
TO clout the ball over the fence for
ar extra-base hit at any time.
Fred was born at Watertown, Wis.
December 20, 1888. and started his
baseball career as a pitcher. n
starting in asa twirler with semi
professional clubs about Toledo. his
present home, Merkle has played
every position, and has been In each
one more than cnee.
In the middle of the summer OF
1906 Merkle got his first real start
in professional ranks. signing TO
mitch for the Tecumseh Club. Nerkle
was shifted to third base right after
he Joined the team. Infielders were
plentiful at Tecumseh. but first base
men were scarce, and Merkle was
shifted to that position. The fol-
lowing year Merkle was again with
1ecu11Sen. anu was toiiSiONAto LIZ
star of the Southern Michigan
League. In August, 1907, Manager
McGraw purchased him for $4,000, an
unusually high price for a player
from a class d league.
Merkle was forced to do bench duty
until 1909, when he became the res
ular first baseman of the Giants.
He has improved steadily, and is
considered the best first sacker In
the National League.
Naturally fast, Merllle combines
this speed with excellent Judgment
on the bases, which makes him
doubly dangerous. Merkle has tha
brain, speed, nerve and ginger, to-
gether with great natural ability, and
should be even better next season.
He stands 8 feet II inches In height,
weighs 1872 pounds, and bats and
throws right-handed.

unless legal objections are in~terposed.
The measur vas passed after City
Counsel William A. Lord had given
an opinion that the permission to
stall wagons in the streets for several
hours a day would be illegal. The
councilmen, however, felt that the
anticipated reduction of the cost or
living would prevent opposition by
business men and others, although it
was announced hat two men will try
and stop the plan If it be started.
Joseph Drexel Holmes gave an ex-
tended argument in favor of the
scheme and recited the experiences OF
successful public markets in Burling@
ton and Camden. Councilman Henry
NJ. Mathesius and President John c..
iFneran supported a plan to lay the
I matter over TO see If a suitable lot
could not be secured so as to take the
market from the public street. Coun-
Gilman Freeman offered a lot in the
Fifth ward and Councilman Quinn
urged Scotland street for the market
location, but the measure as fathered
by Councilman Charles a. LIE Master
was passed.
The ordinance will establish a city
market in Main street, extending IN
the southerly side OF the main BUSH
ness artery from Centre street to
Military Common and in such other
thoroughfares as nay be decided
upon. On a vote to lay the market

Councilmen Heberling, Mathesius.
Stetson and Wright supported the
amendment and afterward all voted
for the market ordinance except
Messrs. Stetson and Wright, and the

Arthur B. Seymour. If the measure
is signed farmers may keep wagons
with produce in places designated on
Tuesdays and Thursdays from 6 a. m

MORE POLICE NEEDED,
KEARNY RESIDENTS SAY

The frequency of Saturday and Sun
day night brawls at the eastern end
of Harrison avenue, Kearny, have re-
suited in an agitation by residents of
the section for more police protection.
1t is argued that a policeman should
be stationed on the venue in that
section on Saturday and Sunday
nights.
At present one man is compelled to
cover a wide area in addition to
patrolling the section in question. The
post extends as far north as Bergen
avenue and to Kearny avenue on the
west. This is considered too much
ground for one man to cover. In a
brawl Sunday night n man had his
head severely cut.
