Whether It pays to go into the mar
ket and bid for young players of prom
lse. even II the price seems high, is
answered in the case of Gandil, whose
addition to the Nationals virtually
made the team, says Joe Jackson in
the Washington Post He continues:
1t is generally understood that Gam
dill cost $4,000. including the assessed
valuation of four players and cash
balance. the deal being similar in tbs
sense to the one by which Russell
went from Baltimore to the Athletics.
Russell's purchase was dead loss.
but that was entirely the fault of the
player. who put himself out OF the
game. So far Gandil has been a sue
cess. He has proved that he is a star
fielder, and while possibly he may not
hit quite as well after he has been in
a time. he shapes up like a man who
The state herald., 1912-08-02

should at worst bat around $50. And
that kind of bingler is not found every
day.
II Gandil cost $4,000. he was not
expensive. as far as can be judged
from results to date. None of the
players who were let out would be
useful right now, as Cunningham was
doing bench duty exclusively, and
Griffith was not using either Akers or
Becker to any extent. The difference
in receipts since Gandil Joined. be-
tween what the club would have
drawn without him and what II has
drawn with him. to say nothing OF the
money the club should get at home,
will pay what he cost and leave bal
ance. The club would have won some
games without him. but never could
have compiled its long streak OF con.
secutive victories.

Be Sent to Smithsonian Institution

Philadelphia by myste-
rious creature, variously described as
"monstrous amphiblous animal" and
furious freak fish," Daniel Miller, a
shad fisherman, was rescued from
harm by his companion, Harry Taylor,
In the Delaware river off Gloucester,
N. ].
For FIVE minutes after the creature
had been hauled into their boat it
gave battle. Until Miller became ex-
hausted he fought the attacks with his
fists. Taylor, who was operating the
boat, was afraid to leave his position
while the battle waged, for fear the
boat would capsize.
Miller who is one of the oldest fish
ermen in Gloucester, accompanied by
Taylor. set out with nets for shad
early this morning. Shortly before
noon, when they were preparing to re-
turn home with their supply Of fish.
they pulled in the net.
As they brought It to the surface the
weight became noticeably heavy.
There was constant jerking at the
,opes. At last they were unable to
pull the net any higher and lashed 1t
to the side Of the boata. When Miller
opened the net the creature sprang
from the water at him. The force
sent Miller sprawling into the middle
Of the boat. The creature, which had
two rows of long teeth, snapped at
him viciously.
When the fishermen finally landed
their catch" on land. hundreds of per-
sons flocked to see the creature. It
was taken to Miller's boathouse. Fish
ermen who have seen and caught
many kinds of fish shook their heads
