persons are most unpleasantly effect
ed by foods or drugs that in general
are harmless or even beneficial 10
those who take them.
Certain persons, for example, are
unable to eat strawberries, and others
are unable to eat shell-fish without
very unpleasant symptoms, such as
faintness, nausea, or al eruption Of
hives. Physicians often happen on
patients who are unable To take GER

that they produce-far worse some
times than the diseases that they are
intended to cure. In rare cases
even the simplest articles of diet,
like eggs or milk, have a similar
effect
This matter OF uidios, ncrasyr has
long pulled physicians, but light is

study of a strange phenomenon
called oanaphylaxis." This word,
which is derived from two greek
words, ana Opposed to- and
phylaxis (protection). means an
extreme sensitiveness to the INTRO
ducti0n INTO the system of certain
substances. such as diphtheria anti
toxin, the pollen of plants, the juices
of shell fish, and various drugs, like
iodid of potassium and quin;g.
This sensiliveness does not show
itself until some time after the Of

\ curious fact is that the second

GEORGE MOR|ARTY
MAY LEAVE DETROIT
Cleveland, Chicago and WASH
ington Said to Be After
the InfieIder.

CHICAGO. May 4.-There is talk of
trading George Moriarty for Rollo Zeider.
1t has Travelled along the ranks OF both
Detroit and Chicago teams. The main
basis for the rumor Is that Zeider is not
first baseman and Moriarty is, while Mo-
riarty Is not as good at second, short or
third as Zeider. while Zeider plays better
at the other infleld position than on first.
Moriarty has served as principal party
in at least seven different ''rumor' trades
with four different clubs. Frank j. Navin
says he will keep him, but Moriarty Is q
much-wanted young man around the
league and could have q regular first
baseman's job with Cleveland, Chicago or
Washington II Detroit traded or sold him
to one Of these clubs.
Naturally fitted to play first base, with
little chance to break into Detroits line
up unless injury befalls Gainor or LOU
den. Jennings Is unable to work Moriarty.
Hughie likes Zeider and has openly ex-
pressed his opinion Of Zeider's ability.
Those who pad attention to the rumor
did so because they realized that Detroit
could find more value in Zeider than in
Moriarty. Jennings Is openly In favor of
him. while the Detroit club has never
been absolutely positive about retaining
Moriarty.
In the meantime the bidding for Mori-
arty continues and one OF these days an
announcement Of q trade or sale will fea-
ture the name Mortarty.

BOSTON, May IT think that the late
Frank Selee was the best team manager

ever played under" said Johnny Killing.
manager Of the Boston Wardmen, ac-
cording to a New York Newspaper. "Se-

Schultz. and gave me the first opportuni-

natural judge Of playing talent He
wasn't a bulldozer on the bench, but an
even-tempered. fair minded critic OF the
mistakes made by his players. Had he
lived he would have received all the
credit for the greatness of the Cubs in
stead OF Chance.
Il don't believe Chance can pick up and
develop young players but he knows how
to make the men placed in his care play
ball. He Is a strict disciplinarian and
great field general. AS first baseman
and batter he was at the top Of the heap
and set a winning example.
Chance has always believed in slap

Der one day he fined King Cole 500 for
poor pitching. Cole was as mad as q
halter. and turning to Chance he cried:
I'm going to quit the team and go
into the navy!
IF you do I'll give you $500 and re-
NIT the fine.' replied Chance, earnestly.
and Cole decided to remain with the
Cubs.
Fielder Jones' in my opinion, was an
other great base ball leader. He knew
how to drive his men. We had a great
team when the White Sox, called the
hitless wonders. beat us in a fall series.
a feat that was entirely due to Jones'
pluck and pugnacity. Too bad Jones quit
base ball. for he would have kept the
White Sox always near the top.
you've got to hand 1t to John McGraw,
too. He keeps the Giants hustling and
that wins games. McGraw has made
base ball in New York and is entitled to
all the praise he receives"
